Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Where Did An Zhihang Go? (8)

"You’re making it sound so serious, you’ve been so kind to me, and my parents know it too. They couldn’t possibly blame you, please don’t overthink it!" Kong Shi of course knew that Old Lady An was joking. She felt incredibly fortunate to have married into the An Family, with a husband who adored her and in-laws who treated her with genuine kindness. She thought she must have accumulated several lifetimes’ worth of good fortune to have such blissful happiness now.

"Haha! Silly girl, I’m just teasing you! Come on, let’s eat!"

"What about Zisheng?" Kong Shi found it odd, wondering why An Zisheng hadn’t come back yet.

"He got held up with something, he’s on his way now, almost here. We won’t wait for him, let’s start eating to avoid getting hungry." Unlike the typical mother-in-law, Old Lady An was very understanding and wouldn’t make the foolish mistake of not starting the meal just because her son wasn’t home yet.

"Alright, we’ll eat while we wait." Kong Shi obediently followed Old Lady An’s suggestion.

At the dining table, Old Master An took the head seat, with Old Lady An sitting beside him, and Kong Shi to the right of Old Lady An.

"Zhihang and Zhiyan are really something too, always busy outside, never knowing to come back for a meal," Old Lady An commented, feeling the dinner table was a little too quiet.

"They’re young and it’s their time to be ambitious, they don’t have time to come back for meals. Don’t always bring this up in front of them, so as not to pressure them," Old Master An said, lifting his head from the newspaper, taking a sip of his soup, and speaking to Old Lady An.

"Yes, yes, you’re right! It’s just that I find it quiet here! Aren’t you worried though? Zhihang and Zhiyan are both twenty-eight and still don’t have girlfriends. One’s always running to the company and the other to the troops. When will I get to hold a great-grandchild?" Old Lady An expressed her helplessness. Her grandsons were too outstanding for their own good, handsome and capable, with a bunch of women trying to latch onto them, yet these two didn’t give any of them a second glance.

"Children and grandchildren will have their own luck, you shouldn’t worry so much. These two lads inherited their father’s traits, they’re clever and discerning. If they don’t have girlfriends now, it’s because they haven’t found the right ones. Just look back over twenty years ago, wasn’t Zisheng also adamant about not finding a girlfriend? And what happened in the end? As soon as he saw Xiao Shi, he was utterly smitten!" Old Master An humorously used the story of An Zisheng chasing after Kong Shi over twenty years ago as an example for Old Lady An.

"Dad, please don’t!" Kong Shi, feeling a bit embarrassed, blushed and spoke to Old Master An, then concentrated on her meal.

"Oh my! Old man, look at you making Xiao Shi shy!" Old Lady An laughed heartily, slapping her thigh.

For a moment, the dinner table was full of joy and warmth.

...

"Mr. An, are you back?" Just then, Aunt Li’s voice came from the entrance.

Then they heard An Zisheng’s polite and cultured voice: "Aunt Li, could you take my bag, please? Thank you."

With long strides, he walked into the dining room and immediately saw a warm scene before him. His beloved wife and parents sat by the dining table, smiling at him as he returned home.

"I could hear the laughter from the doorway; what’s so funny?" An Zisheng took off his coat, quickly washed his hands, and then sat next to Kong Shi.

"We were just talking about the silly way you used to chase after Xiao Shi!" Old Lady An teased her son with a smile.

On hearing his mother’s words, An Zisheng felt embarrassed, shaking his head helplessly. Back then, in pursuit of his wife, he’d made quite a stir in the An household, constantly the subject of his mother’s teasing.

"Husband, eat while it’s hot." Kong Shi served a bowl of hot soup and placed it in front of An Zisheng.
