"Mom, sorry we're late. Is Ming-Bo here too? Haha! That's perfect. Since everyone is here, I can introduce you. This is my daughter Qianqian. Ming-Bo, you met her a few years ago, do you still remember her?” said Su Yuan-Shan while Su Qian walked over and nodded to Ma Ming-Bo and smiled politely.
"Mhm, Uncle Su, I do know Qianqian. Qianqian has certainly grown even more lovely over the years," said Ma Ming-Bo as he smiled and got up hurriedly.
"Haha! Don't keep standing around. Take a seat. Yuan-Shan, sit by my side. Qianqian, sit with Ming-Bo. You haven't seen each other for years, so you should catch up tonight," said Granny as she assigned their seats to them after they arrived.
"Granny, this chair is dirty," someone from the Su family called out.
Granny waved her hand and said, "It's fine. I will get the servants to change it."
"What are you standing around for? Hurry up and bring a clean chair over. Are you new? Don't you have any initiative?" said Granny unhappily to Ye Fan as he stood next to Su Yuan-Shan.
Ye Fan frowned without saying a word.
The corner of Su Yuan-Shan's eyes twitched as he explained, "Mom, this is your future grandson-in-law, so be nice. Otherwise, he might be unfilial to you in the future."
What?
"Him? My future grandson-in-law?" asked Granny in a daze.
Everyone was shocked too.
Ma Ming-Bo asked Su Qian especially curiously, "Qianqian, which one of your cousins' fiance is he? Wasn't she too rash with the decision?"
Granny was perplexed too as she asked, "Is it Beibei's boyfriend? How dare she start dating behind my back when she should be studying?
Su Yuan-Shan shook his head and replied, "Mom, he isn't Beibei's boyfriend. He's Su Qian's boyfriend. Didn't I tell you about a young man called Ye Fan with a bright future? Ye Fan and Su Qian make a great couple. This is Ye Fan. Ye Fan, come over and greet your Granny."
Su Yuan-Shan smiled nonstop.
But everyone was dumbstruck when they heard him.
Ma Ming-Bo was especially surprised, so his expression turned dark immediately.
Granny's face altered slightly too.
After all, everyone in the Su family was aware that Granny organized the gathering to help matchmake Ma Ming-Bo and Su Qian.
But this loser appeared out of nowhere.
"This is probably going to get exciting," muttered a Su family member at the dining table.
But there were some things that everyone just knew about and never spoke about.
So most of them just kept eating without uttering a word.
But Granny couldn't hold herself back and said angrily, "Yuan-Shan, what's going on? Why didn't you say you were bringing him over? This family has high standards, so we can't let any random man in. You should have at least told me he was coming and let me decide whether he had the right to sit and dine with the Su family."
The old lady sounded faintly angry.
She had just promised Ma Ming-Bo to help win Su Qian over, so it was undoubtedly a tight slap on the old lady's face for this to happen, and it was no surprise that she got angry.
"Granny, I was the one who brought Fan here. Haven't you been rushing me to get hitched? Since we were having a family banquet, I brought Fan over for you to see him," said Su Qian as she chuckled. Then she held Ye Fan's arm and beamed brightly at her grandmother.
Ye Fan felt uneasy all over when he felt Su Qian's softness and warmth.
