Chapter 126: Chapters 91-92 Test/Helplessness_4

...

A group of people arrived at the hotel, and all the elders were already there. Seeing Liu Zhengxing chatting with Grandpa, Luo Ye reluctantly suppressed his dislike and greeted: "Uncle Liu is here too?"

"Yeah, it’s about Ye’er’s matter, of course I have to come." Liu Zhengxing warmly greeted Song Xiaoyang who was also greeting Yang Songping: "Xiao Yang is here too?"

"Uncle Liu, I’m here too, I of course had to come for my foster sister’s joyful day." Song Xiaoyang took the opportunity to sit next to Yang Xing while greeting, and Yang Xing stealthily glanced at Luo Ye next to him, seeing that her expression was normal, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Songping scanned the two empty seats: "Zhenggang, are there still guests who haven’t arrived?"

"Yes, there are two more who haven’t arrived yet." Luo Zhenggang checked the time: "They should be arriving soon, this is also why I invited Mayor Yang today, oh, it’s troublesome!"

"You invited us for this reason?" Yang Songping was taken aback: "Isn’t it to discuss the matter between Xingxing and Ye’er? What’s the difficulty?"

Luo Zhenggang nodded: "Yes, it’s about Ye’er’s matter, but there’s been a slight change, we’ll discuss it once all the guests are here."

"Alright, let’s wait then." Yang Songping looked at his wife, Wang Liqing shook her head, Liu Zhengxing, who had been pondering the meaning of their conversation, was also puzzled, Song Xiaoyang’s smile however became a bit sweeter.

"Zhenggang, we aren’t late, are we?" Right when the minute and hour hands hit exactly six o’clock, Jiang Zheng and Ye Xuan arrived, taking seats next to Luo Zhenggang and Luo Ye respectively.

Luo Zhenggang smiled: "Not late, not late, you guys are really on time."

"Jiang Zheng, when did you arrive?" Liu Zhengxing felt like he had caught a thread of the situation, but it still didn’t quite add up.

Jiang Zheng smiled: "Yesterday, came over for a meeting and also took care of some things on behalf of someone."

"Mayor Yang, let me introduce these two, Jiang Zheng, one of my best friends, this is Ye Xuan, Jiang Zheng’s colleague, and also..." Luo Zhenggang paused: "the husband chosen by Ye’er’s grandpa for her."

Husband? Luo Zhenggang’s wording was unorthodox, but the meaning was very clear. Everyone’s gaze turned towards Ye Xuan, except for the Yang family, others were somewhat confused, not understanding who Luo Ye’s grandpa was.

Luo Ye very cooperatively acted shy and timid, lowering her head, but her stomach was almost bursting with laughter, Uncle Jiang was really awe-inspiring, the other party wouldn’t dare to verify it with Grandpa.

Song Xiaoyang suppressed the surprise and excitement and sized up Ye Xuan again. This tall and handsome man had caught her eye when he entered, but she hadn’t expected his identity to be this.

However, this man was indeed cool and handsome, especially those dark purple eyes, deep and charming. If it wasn’t for Yang Xing in her heart, she probably would have fallen for him too.

"Zhenggang, are you serious?" Yang Songping’s expression grew quite grim: "Then why didn’t you mention this when Xingxing and I came to your house before?"

"Mayor Yang, I didn’t know about this before either. It’s a matter involving the child that needs the consent of the elders. The child’s grandpa was furious when he heard, said I was playing the musical instrument carelessly, the child is too young to worry about these things, and besides, he already had chosen a husband for Ye’er, originally planning to mention it in a couple of years.

Coincidentally, Ye Xuan was coming here on a business trip with Jiang Zheng, so the child’s grandpa let him come over to meet Ye’er first." Luo Zhenggang looked troubled: "In the presence of the child’s grandpa, I don’t have a say at all, I feel sorry for Mayor Yang."

Yang Xing had already recognized that Ye Xuan was the man he had encountered last night. Glancing at his own attire, he felt extremely annoyed. The other was dressed in a dark gray casual suit, looking mature and stable, while he seemed just like a little bean in comparison.

But it must be said that his self-cultivation wasn’t bad. Unlike most children who would get angry out of embarrassment, he calmly leaned close to Wang Qi and whispered a few words.

Yang Songping was also sizing up Ye Xuan. Compared to his son, he really felt inferior, and his heart was inevitably disappointed. Hearing his wife’s whispers, he looked angrily at Luo Zhenggang: "I don’t know what status my son’s grandpa’s family has, but I just want to know, this young man came here yesterday already, why didn’t Mayor Luo give us a heads up to prepare ourselves mentally?

"Early this morning, Xingxing was busy with this matter, and I believe Mayor Luo is also aware. Probably not many families in the compound are unaware of the Yang Family’s proposal to the Luo Family. If you had no intention, you could have refused outright. Why play such a trick on us?"

"Mayor Yang, I really didn’t know how to broach the subject. If it weren’t difficult, I wouldn’t have the audacity to involve Secretary Liu here as well. You can see how seriously I’m taking this matter from all this..." Luo Zhenggang feigned hesitation: "Ye’er’s grandpa’s family belongs to the Wen Family of the Six Great Families. With your family background, Mayor Yang, you should understand my predicament.

"Old Master’s intention is to let Ye Xuan and Ye’er spend some time together first, and if the children feel it’s appropriate, then decide on future matters. The Old Master is still very democratic."

Liu Zhengxing quietly wiped away some cold sweat. He had known Luo Zhenggang for so many years, yet never heard of Luo Zhenggang having any connection with the Wen Family of the Six Great Families. Reflecting on his own actions, he realized he had made a big blunder.

Following that, he also began to harbor doubts. Since Luo Zhenggang had such a strong background, why would he agree to his terms? Could it be just a facade?

Never mind, let’s watch as things unfold! At worst, he would send someone to investigate later.

Yang Songping was silent all along, seemingly digesting the major news just revealed by Luo Zhenggang. After a while, he raised his head: "Zhenggang, I indeed understand your difficulties, but have you informed my family and the Old Master about this situation? Perhaps an opportunity for a fair competition with Mr. Ye?"

"No!" Ye Xuan’s magnetic voice decisively intervened.

Everyone’s gaze collectively shifted over, not expecting his sudden interjection.

"I said no!" Ye Xuan emphasized again, stretching his arm and encircling Ye’er’s shoulder: "My Ye Family’s granddaughter-in-law, how can we permit others to covet her?"

"Ye Family?" Yang Songping pondered briefly: "You’re not telling me, you are from the Ye of the Six Great Families, are you?"

"Correct!" Ye Xuan gave a faint smile, an authoritative aura exuding from him.

"My Yang Family is not necessarily much inferior to the Ye Family, moreover, Old Master Wen’s intention is you two getting along well before considering relations. What right do you have to decide for Ye’er?" Yang Songping looked at Luo Zhenggang: "Zhenggang, I hope you can talk this over with the Old Master, give the kids a chance to choose."

Luo Zhenggang’s previous ambiguous answers were naturally to cover up for the future. After all, over time, doubts would inevitably arise. However, he hadn’t expected Yang Songping to be so persistent.
