However, the coughs coming from the driver’s seat reminded him from time to time. Huang Jun could only bite the bullet and speak.
“Xiang Yin, do you have a girlfriend? You’re not young anymore. You should be engaged now, right?”
Xiang Yin’s hand paused. Was his age being despised? However, he still answered truthfully.
“I already have a girlfriend, but I’m not engaged yet.”
As he spoke, Xiang Yin glanced at Gu Man, who was sitting expressionlessly behind him, through the mirror.
When Grandma and Huang Jun heard this news, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Indeed, the Internet was filled with rumors. Xiang Yin already had a girlfriend, so how could he still be related to Gu Man? These two were just ordinary friends. They had always misunderstood.
For a moment, Grandma looked at Xiang Yin with a much friendlier gaze.
“It’s good to have a girlfriend, but you’re already of age. You should get married as soon as possible.”
“There’s no hurry. It depends on her wishes.”
Grandma nodded in satisfaction when she heard this. Actually, Xiang Yin was not bad, but his age was not suitable. Moreover, Gu Man was still in high school.
When Gu Man heard their conversation, her gaze landed on the mirror and met Xiang Yin’s gaze in the mirror.
He did not avoid it. Instead, he smirked at the mirror.
Seeing this, Gu Man smiled back.
Because they knew that Xiang Yin had a girlfriend, Grandma and Huang Jun’s hostility towards Xiang Yin decreased greatly. They could even chat and laugh with him on the way.
However, if they knew that Xiang Yin’s girlfriend was Gu Man, they did not know how they would react.
The car soon arrived at the entrance of the Cui family’s villa. The big iron gate opened and the car drove in.
Grandma and Huang Jun could not be bothered to talk to Xiang Yin. They looked nervously at the elegant environment around them.
Although they kept giving themselves psychological hints the night before they came, they could not help but feel nervous when he really saw such a scene.
They swallowed and looked at their surroundings. Grandma’s hand subconsciously rested on Gu Man’s leg.
Gu Man tilted her head to look at her grandmother’s slightly nervous face and held her hand.
When her gentle hand rested on her grandmother’s, her grandmother’s nervousness dissipated a lot.
Her grandmother pulled on a happy smile.
When the car stopped in the parking lot, the moment they got out of the car, they saw a person dressed like a butler in a suit walking over.
Grandmother and Huang Jun had made countless psychological preparations in their hearts and nothing went wrong.
Gu Man sized up Uncle Li, who had dressed up carefully, in amusement. Coincidentally, Uncle Li also looked at Gu Man and winked at her.
Under Uncle Li’s lead, they arrived at the main hall.
The table was already filled with food. Old Master Cui was the only one sitting at the huge dining table.
When he saw them, Old Master Cui stood up with an indescribable excitement.
Gu Man looked around and saw that there were no children, Jia Ling, or Cui Hong. She knew that Old Master Cui was worried that they would be nervous and specially sent everyone away.
When Grandma saw Old Master Cui stand up, she hurriedly walked over. She opened her mouth, not knowing how to address him, and could only call him stiffly.
Old Master Cui looked at her grandmother with mixed feelings.
The few of them sat down at the dining table. Old Master Cui was about to speak when he saw Xiang Yin sitting down with them.
Why did this brat come over too? Did he shamelessly come to their house to freeload?
However, with so many people here, Old Master Cui was too embarrassed to say anything. He could only glare at Xiang Yin before looking at Gu Man’s grandmother beside him.
He opened his mouth. The old man who was all-powerful in the business world could not say a word in front of his daughter’s adoptive mother.
His eyes were filled with tears and guilt.
Grandma could tell what Old Master Cui wanted to ask and took the initiative to explain Huang Ying’s situation.
“Although Ying Er was adopted, I’ve always treated her like my own daughter. She was carefree when she was young, but who knew that she married a scumbag.”
Grandmother’s words came to an abrupt halt, her eyes filled with hatred..
