Chapter 294: 263 Both Sides, Meeting (1 update)_1

Chen Duoduo’s studio was situated in an upscale office building along a prime commercial strip in Beijing.

She had rented out an entire floor for her workspace.

And she wasn’t just a tenant; she was the owner.

At thirty years old, Chen Duoduo was single and a career-oriented businesswoman.

When they arrived, Chen Duoduo and Bai Wei were waiting for them at the entrance. Both women exuded an outstanding aura. Standing there, arm in arm, they didn’t need to do anything to be an impressive sight.

They were incredibly eye-catching to passersby.

With their exceptional presence and the sort of aloof elegance that only noblewomen possess, even without bodyguards nearby, no one dared to casually approach and flirt with them.

From inside the car, Tang Su had already noticed these two women and, before Lu Han could make introductions, she had guessed their identities.

And Lu Han’s reaction only confirmed her suspicions.

"My mom’s here too, but don’t worry, I’m here," Lu Han reassured Tang Su.

"Mhm," Tang Su responded, her face flushing.

She was thankful her mother had taken her shopping earlier, insisting on buying her a nice coat and making her wear it today for the family portrait.

Her mother had placed so much importance on their family portrait; otherwise, had she stepped out in her usual clothes, it might have seemed too dismissive.

As the motorcade approached, Lu Han parked the car, and Bai Wei hurried over with Chen Duoduo.

"Duoduo sister," Lu Han greeted his god-sister, then turned to Bai Wei, "Mom, what brings you here too?"

"When you needed help, you didn’t say I couldn’t come," Bai Wei pouted, speaking playfully.

Lu Han: "..."

Right, he hadn’t said she couldn’t come, but he also hadn’t asked her to come. Shouldn’t she have obediently stayed home if she listened to him?

"Aren’t you going to introduce us?" Chen Duoduo glared at Lu Han.

In Beijing, apart from the two women related by blood to Lu Han, the only other women who could scold Lu Han were his wife and, perhaps, her.

"This is Tang Su, my girlfriend, and that’s Tang Su’s grandmother, her mother, her father, and her elder brother."

"Hello everyone, I am Lu Han’s mother, Bai Wei. This is Lu Han’s god-sister, Chen Duoduo. This boy has been hiding her all this time, not willing to let us meet. Thank heavens for finally letting me meet my future daughter-in-law and her family," Bai Wei warmly greeted Tang Su and her family.

"Hello, it’s an honor for us to meet you too. I’m really sorry for the inconvenience of having you come all this way for our family matter today," Su Ruoan said.

Su Ruoan hadn’t expected Bai Wei to be so young and beautiful.

If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes and heard her introducing herself as Lu Han’s mother, she would never have believed that such a youthful woman could have a son as old as Lu Han.

She really took great care of herself.

"There’s no need to be embarrassed or to apologize. His sister found out you were taking a family portrait. She just scolded this boy for treating her like an outsider. It’s all expected. It’s cold outside; let’s go in and talk," Bai Wei suggested.

"Alright."

"Madam, after you," Bai Wei said with a smile to the Su family matriarch.

"Alright, please." Facing Bai Wei, the elderly Madam Su unconsciously also used an honorific.

"Madam, you are too polite," Bai Wei dared not accept such a respectful address from the elder.

Chen Duoduo’s assistant stepped forward to help, ushering the other members of the Su Family into their workshop.

Here, the Su Family members were treated as distinguished guests; as soon as the pleasantries were over, they were arranged to go to the studio for the photo shoot. Chen Duoduo had made sure everything was of the highest standard.

The various family portrait packages she had chosen were to the Su Family’s great satisfaction.

Even the best packages offered by Peter couldn’t compare to this one.

Moreover, getting Peter’s appointment required queuing and abiding by all kinds of terms, but over here, Chen Duoduo took care of everything directly.

Because it was a last-minute visit, Chen Duoduo didn’t have time to prepare her best offerings.

But even with these backup packages, the elderly Madam Su was already very satisfied.

As the eldest in the Su Family, Su Wanyi usually had a say in any situation, but today, aside from the polite greeting from Bai Wei and Chen Duoduo at the beginning, Su Ruoan and Tang Su were the important figures at this event.

In the eyes of Bai Wei and Chen Duoduo, even the elderly lady didn’t receive much attention; instead, they consistently followed Tang Su and her parents, bestowing even more consideration onTang Feng than on the rest of them.

And rightly so, after all, they were personally introduced to his mother and sister by Lu Han; they were Tang Su’s direct relatives, and as for the extended family, naturally, they were not as noteworthy.

Su Wanyi felt uncomfortable inside but could only bottle up her feelings.

Similarly overlooked, the elder Madam Shen was naturally much more composed and could more readily accept the neglect.

Although the main characters ignored them, the staff of the studio were very polite to them, treating them like VIPs. They offered tea, coffee, candies, nuts, and various other refreshments.

Even during the photo shoot and makeup, they were very considerate of their feelings.

If they had been at the previous photo studio, they certainly wouldn’t have received such treatment.

After all the commotion had settled and everyone was very pleased with the family photo that had been taken, it was already noon.

Having lunch together was inevitable.

Moreover, Lu Maoyan had been waiting at home, not seeing his wife and son return, so when the cook asked him what he wanted for lunch, Lu Maoyan got unnecessarily angry.

Finally managing to speak with Bai Wei, she was hesitant and unwilling to let him come to find them, which further annoyed Lu Maoyan.

He immediately began grumbling on the phone like a child, complaining about how uncomfortable he was feeling, which left Bai Wei with no choice but to reveal that she was currently meeting Lu Han’s girlfriend and their prospective in-laws.

Upon hearing this, Lu Maoyan perked up and suggested that since it was almost noon, the parents from both sides could meet on this auspicious day and have a meal together, saying he also wanted to meet his future daughter-in-law.

Bai Wei was worried he might scare them, to which Lu Maoyan immediately felt displeased, "Am I a monster?"

Even if he were a monster, Lu Han was like Ultraman; his (Maoyan’s) monstrous antics wouldn’t stand a chance in front of Lu Han.

Considering this, Bai Wei thought it made sense and so she reported their numbers to him, asking him to arrange a hotel. Once he had it arranged, he would send them the location, and they would head over after they were finished.

Lu Maoyan took on the task with delight.

The hotel arranged by Lu Maoyan was naturally the best in Beijing, much better than Xinghua Hall, especially since this hotel was under the Lu Group.

Lu Maoyan felt that no other hotel could compare to their home turf, plus he preferred not to let "the water flow into others’ fields."

Seeing that he had sent over the details of their own hotel, Bai Wei didn’t say much, tacitly consenting.

At this time, nowhere could be more comfortable than their own turf, where they could have any kind of service they wanted.
