He was still the sa as before, always liked to be alone. Even with a house full of guests, he wouldn’t co down to take a look. So every ti she ca before, the first thing was to go upstairs to find him.
However, this ti, she looked forward to eting him but also felt a bit fearful. She just watched from a distance without saying a word.
At the dinner table, he sat far away from her. Fortunately, he was opposite her, and she could still catch a glimpse of him from a slanting view.
"Grandma..."
As everyone chatted, An’an suddenly called out.
"What’s the matter?"
An’an put down her chopsticks and glanced at the people at the table. Her hands clenched tightly below the table. The words she had planned out got stuck in her throat at this mont.
Su Yan turned to look at her, reached out his hand under the table, held her hand, and solemnly said, "I want to marry An’an."
The sounds at the dinner table abruptly stopped. Everyone looked at each other. Grandma took a deep breath, put down her chopsticks. An’an nervously watched Grandma, pursing her lips and saying, "Grandma... Actually, I ca back this ti to tell you about this. I hope... to get everyone’s blessing."
Shen Yiran chewed his food thoughtfully, not knowing what to feel.
An’an and Su Yan had always been in the roles of uncle and niece in the family, yet now they had the courage to bring up marriage in front of the family. And he? When Dudu ca to him again and again, he chose to ruthlessly reject her because of their identities, again and again...
Grandma’s smile faded, but she didn’t get very angry or excited. She just looked calmly at Shen Yi’an and asked, "What if I don’t agree?"
An’an felt even more anxious but still gathered her courage and said, "I will still be with him..."
"Then why are you telling us this?"
"I hope to have love while not losing my family. Grandma, Dad, Mom, I’ve been with Su Yan for so many years. If you don’t accept us, just consider us the sa as before. If you’re afraid of rumors affecting the family’s reputation, then I... won’t co back in the future."
"Nonsense!" Su Nian imdiately scolded sharply, "What do you an by not coming back?!"
Grandma looked at her and asked, "Are you threatening Grandma?"
An’an imdiately put on an innocent expression, "I’m begging Grandma."
"If Grandma doesn’t agree, does that an you’ll never co back in the future?"
An’an lowered her gaze, didn’t say anything, just looked at Su Yan beside her. The relationship between the two was clearly much closer than before.
After a long silence, Grandma sighed softly and said, "I’m living day by day now. I can’t manage that much. If I don’t agree now, I guess when I die, you won’t even co to my funeral. And after I’m dead, you’ll still get married and be together..."
"Grandma, you’ll live a long life!"
Grandma glanced at her and said, "Do as you please. This old lady can’t manage anymore."
An’an asked joyfully, "So, Grandma, you agree?"
Grandma didn’t say anything, just sighed softly, picked up her chopsticks, and continued eating, which was as good as agreeing.
The atmosphere at the table imdiately relaxed a lot. It wasn’t surprising that the two of them reached this point today. Many had long suspected that their relationship was not simple, which was why Grandma had always prevented An’an and Su Yan from being close. However, after being together for so long, separating them would be extrely difficult.
