Chapter 1412: The Song Couple (140)
In fact, he did not expect that he only wanted to increase their progress so that the Song family, especially the old man at home, would acknowledge him. Afterwards, things would go much smoother.
Unexpectedly, after bringing Xiaoqi and Little Sangyu back, Grandpa’s att.i.tude towards him changed drastically, making him think that he was his biological grandson.
“There are no ifs!” After Song Yiyan finished speaking, her gaze stopped on his face.
After a moment, he looked away in defeat.
Sigh, it’s all tears!
Her ability to read physiognomy allowed her to read other people, but she had never seen her own face. She could not read the faces of Ji Xing, Ling Sheng, Jun s.h.i.+yan, and Si Chengluo either.
“Okay, there are no ifs.” Ji Xing shook his head helplessly. He was afraid that if he continued to ask, she would pounce on him and bite him to death. He squatted in front of her. “Let’s go home!”
Song Yiyan was also a little tired from walking. She jumped onto his shoulder and pinched his ear. “Let’s go home!”
Ji Xing felt that his hunch was 90% correct.
However, if he dared to say this possibility out now, he would definitely be chased out of the Song family.
As the first grandson of the Song family to get engaged, Song Heng and Bai Lu’s engagement ceremony was very impressive. All the big shots of China had come, those who couldn’t come had to come no matter what.
...
Song Yiyan was wearing a cream-colored dress today. It was not a gown, as she was afraid of overshadowing the bride. It was elegant and cute, not like her older sister’s dress.
The Song family was entertaining guests and exchanging pleasantries.
“G.o.dmother!” Xiaoqi’s voice sounded from the door.
Song Yiyan looked up and smiled at the girls who were talking to her. “My G.o.dson is here, I’ll go over and take a look. You guys can walk around and eat something.”
These women were too troublesome, they were all the daughters of various families. As the only girl in the Song family’s grandchildren, she had to be polite.
It was her brother’s big day. She had to act like a good sister.
The Huo family had brought Xiaoqi over, but without Ling Sheng, Jun s.h.i.+yan, Huo Ci and Nangong Lengyu as they had gone to film a variety show. Logically speaking, the couple should have time.
Instead, it was Huo Xiao and Su Xiyin who came.
Huo Xiao was dressed in a Tang suit and looked very energetic.
Su Xiyin was wearing a cheongsam. She was n.o.ble and elegant, and she had taken good care of herself. One could not tell her true age at all.
Xiaoqi was already running toward her with his short legs. “G.o.dmother.”
“Why are you alone? Where’s Little Sangyu?” Song Yiyan picked the little guy up and walked over to greet him. “h.e.l.lo, Grandpa and Grandma Huo.”
“h.e.l.lo.” Su Xiyin smiled lovingly. “You’re so beautiful today.”
“How am I beautiful? The bride is the prettiest today.” Song Yiyan smiled and walked with her. “Why aren’t Uncle Huo and the others here?”
“Yu’er isn’t feeling well.” Su Xiyin was embarra.s.sed to say.
Ci’er and Yu’er had came over before. Her husband’s relations.h.i.+p with the Song family was a little stiff, but this time, he insisted on coming over and didn’t let them come.
He didn’t even let her follow him and wanted to bring Xiaoqi over alone. She didn’t know what he was up to.
Xiaoqi stole a look at his great-grandfather. His great-grandfather had told him last night that he would only bring himself over. His great-grandmother had been unwilling, saying that she was afraid that he would come over and cause trouble at her engagement ceremony.
Huo Xiao cleared his throat and looked at Song Yiyan. “Yanyan, bring your grandmother over to get to know your relatives and friends.”
“Okay.” Song Yiyan carried Xiaoqi and was about to leave.
Huo Xiao said, “Xiaoqi, follow me.”
Su Xiyin frowned and warned him softly, “Today is their big day. Don’t cause trouble for them!”
No matter where they were, they would always form cliques. The clique that the Huo family was in had always been against the one that the Song family was in.
In the past, it was the Song family’s sons who got married and sent invitations over but her husband didn’t care much about it. This time, he was very proactive about his grandson’s engagement.
Last night, he said that he hadn’t seen Yanyan for a long time, he missed her and wanted to come and see her.
Huo Xiao said, “Am I a child? I’m already an adult. Why would I cause trouble? Hurry up and leave with Yanyan!”
Song Yiyan smiled and held Su Xiyin’s arm as they walked in. She whispered into her ear, “I know what Grandpa Huo is going to do.”
So it was true that having an old man in this family was like having a treasure. Grandpa Huo was here to show off his precious great-grandson, what else could he do?
The guests present were all people with status and power, they were all from the Song family’s camp. When they saw Song Yiyan and Su Xiyin being so close, they could not help but feel curious.
What was going on? The Song family and the Huo family were not on good terms but Old Master Huo came personally today.
The only precious granddaughter of the Song family had never been so close to her own mother, but she was extremely close to Madam Huo.
The Song family knew about Song Yiyan and Ling Sheng’s relations.h.i.+p. They were as good as one person, so she was naturally closer to the Huo family.
However, they did not expect Huo Xiao to bring his wife over to congratulate them personally.
Since Huo Xiao was here, Song Chen naturally had to welcome him personally. Looking at the great-grandson in front of him, he liked him very much, but he could not bring himself to be intimate with Xiaoqi. He was so jealous!
Su Xiyin looked at Huo Xiao, who was smiling brightly. He was surrounded by a group of old men of similar age when he was showing off Xiaoqi. The rest of the people were envious.
She sighed helplessly. “Look how old he is.”
Yanyan was right. He was here to show off his precious great-grandson.
Song Yiyan continued, “Xiaoqi is cute. It’s normal for Grandpa Huo to want everyone to know.”
Cuteness was the greatest killing weapon, okay? No one didn’t like cute and sensible babies. Xiaoqi was a baby that people couldn’t help but like.
Su Xiyin did not expect that because of Xiaoqi, a group of old fellows who never gave each other a good look would become harmonious. She felt rather emotional.
Song Yiyan brought over a small cake. “Grandma, try this. My chef made it, it’s delicious.”
Su Xiyin took it. “Thank you.”
Song Yiyan smiled. “Why are you being so polite with me? I wonder if Xiaoqi is hungry and if he wants to eat.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a lady beside her carried a plate of freshly fried steak over. The smell wafted into her nose, and she suddenly felt her stomach churn and she couldn’t help but retch.
