Chapter 670: Chapter 668: Started to Worry about the Daughter-in-law Again_1

Ji Hua’s words had barely left her mouth when the most shocked person was none other than Mu Ziqing standing beside Huo En.

Her hand, holding the cup, suddenly stiffened, unsure whether to place it down or not.

Mu Yingchen’s mother had heard about it from him before, so she wasn’t as surprised as Su Wanxia’s parents. Although she believed in marrying within one’s social class, if it meant having Mu Ziqing marry into the number one noble family far away in E Country, she still felt somewhat uneasy...

After all, it was so far away, and to marry into such a prominent noble family—someone like Qiqi, who grew up carefree, lovely and sincere, what kinds of grievances she might have to endure if she married over there. If Huo En loved her, it would be fine, but if his feelings were to change over time, then...

She sighed silently in her heart; ever since the incident with Yingchen and Wanxia, she rarely interfered in her children’s marriages...

Upon hearing Ji Hua’s words, Su Wanxia’s mother felt a surge of excitement!

A Duke...

So it was a Duke...

Worry crept into her heart as well. When Wanxia married Mu Yingchen, she could not imagine how many hardships they went through before they ended up together. And now, Qiqi had found herself a Duke as a boyfriend. She wondered whether this was a blessing or a curse...

Thinking this, she maintained a calm exterior and smiled, "Hehe... not bad, truly a young man of achievement..."

Huo En nodded slightly towards Su Wanxia’s mother and then turned to look at Mu Ziqing beside him.

His eyes narrowed slightly...

As he thought, she wasn’t happy after knowing his identity...

He couldn’t help but reach out and authoritatively took Mu Ziqing’s hand under the table...

Mu Ziqing snapped back to reality and, seeing the inscrutable expression in the man’s eyes before her, she turned her face away...

She and he were not from the same world.

From the very first day she met him, she knew they didn’t belong to the same world.

But he forcefully brought them closer and closer together...

And just now, upon learning his identity, she felt the urge to back away...

--

The atmosphere here was somewhat subdued due to Huo En’s arrival, but in the next room over, it was extraordinarily lively.

The female relatives had gathered together after so long, and not taking this opportunity to have an animated chat would be a disservice to such a great day!

Kang Xiaolan stuck her head out and said to Yan Yirou and the others, "You tell me... Wanxia is about to become a grandmother soon, and we don’t even know when my Shiming will get engaged. The more I think about it, the more unbalanced I feel..."

Yan Yirou rolled her eyes upon hearing this, "Xiaolan, what are you implying? You know full well that my Tianyi doesn’t even have a girlfriend, and here you are, saying such things right to my face?"

Gong Yining and Jian Manhui immediately facepalmed... These two, they always started worrying about daughters-in-law again... they really were baffled. What was the rush? Whether marrying early or late, in the end, wasn’t it just about getting married? Just let things take their natural course.

Kang Xiaolan, hearing Yan Yirou’s comment, immediately pursed her lips and clicked her tongue, "What are you fretting about? My Shiming is even a few months older than Yaoyao, isn’t he? How old is your Tianyi?"

Yan Yirou was immediately left speechless by Kang Xiaolan’s words...

After a pause, she added, "But Shiming has a girlfriend, and my Tianyi doesn’t..."

"Yirou... why are you comparing with her? Whether Yanruo becomes her daughter-in-law or not is not for her to decide..." Jian Manhui spoke with a smile.

Kang Xiaolan couldn’t help but give Jian Manhui a sidelong glance, "Jian Man... can’t you take my side for once? Ever since you got married, has your heart been entirely with your in-laws?"

Kang Xiaolan’s remark suddenly made everyone burst into uncontrollable laughter.

Jian Manhui was caught between laughing and crying... What was this all about?

What she said was true, so how did it become related to whether or not she cared about her husband’s family?

"Eh? Xiaolan... was I wrong?"

Kang Xiaolan sighed softly, "You’re not in a hurry, but Shiming in your family is several years older than your Yanqin..." she was the one feeling anxious!

"Wanxia isn’t in a hurry either... so just chill out..." Yan Yirou waved her hand dismissively at her.

When Jian Manhui heard them mention Su Wanxia, she quickly asked Kang Xiaolan and the others, "That... I heard Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao had a lot of things happen to them..."

Kang Xiaolan sighed once more, "Xiaoxiao is really an unfortunate girl, and Yaoyao has truly been through a lot with her. Now that I think about it, I feel like Mu Feng and I have had smooth sailing compared to them..."

The three of them glanced at her with disdain. They were clearly talking about Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao, so how did the topic turn to her and Mu Feng?

It was unbearable...

Seeing the disdainful looks, Kang Xiaolan finally laughed sheepishly, "Actually, I think Yaoyao is quite fine now. As long as Xiaoxiao wakes up, they can be together forever... Isn’t that wonderful?"

"It is wonderful, but who knows how long Yaoyao will have to wait..." Gong Yining suddenly chimed in.

Hearing her words, they all fell silent...

Endless waiting, too, is a kind of torture...

At that moment, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open, and Su Yanruo, smiling all over, entered with Daisy...

"You’re back..." Kang Xiaolan greeted them with a smile.

"Hmm..." Su Yanruo nodded with a smile, while Daisy spoke to everyone with an air of mystery, "Guess what we just saw coming in?"

Everyone raised an eyebrow...

What did they see? With so many people today, what they could have seen was really a guess.

"Alright, Daisy, stop beating around the bush and just tell us..." Jian Manhui said with a smile.

Daisy has liked Yanqin since she was little, and as Yanqin’s mother, Jian Manhui wasn’t one of those unreasonable people; therefore, she adored this would-be mother-in-law to no end.

"Aunty... Just as we walked in, we actually saw Brother Zisu’s left-hand man getting very cozy with a man as they entered a private room!" Daisy was in absolute shock.

Although such a situation was no longer surprising, what astonished her was that the left-hand man actually liked men!

She really hadn’t expected that Mu Zisu would keep someone like that by his side!

After hearing her, the anticipation in everyone’s hearts suddenly dissipated...

"Daisy... We already knew..." Yan Yirou spread her hands towards an excited Daisy.

"Ah? You all knew?" Daisy looked surprised.

"Yeah..." Yan Yirou said again.

"I thought you didn’t know?" Daisy sat down in her chair, feeling somewhat disappointed.
