Chapter 462: Chapter 462: The Niece is Such a Brownnoser Chapter 462: Chapter 462: The Niece is Such a Brownnoser “Qingyan, if you see a young lady you like, you have to tell Mom.”
“I’m not interested in having a girlfriend at the mont; academics are more important.” Su Qingyan didn’t want to beco a sacrifice in a wealthy family’s arranged marriage.
Ye Miaoshan said annoyedly, “I just inquired, and it seems that the daughter of the Li Family will also attend. You must perform well, and it would be best if she takes a liking to you.”
If her daughter couldn’t beco the daughter-in-law of the Li Family, her son could beco their son-in-law.
Wouldn’t this be the best of both worlds, adding kinship upon kinship?
Ye Miaoshan believed her son was perfect and certainly deserved the Li Family’s daughter. After all, she wouldn’t let Su Qingyan marry an ordinary person.
Therefore, she strictly controlled Su Qingyan’s romantic life.
“Mom, I’m not interested in dating.”
“Nonsense,” Ye Miaoshan glared at him, “Didn’t you have a crush on a girl in high school? It’s only because Mom noticed in ti that you didn’t stray from the right path.”
At the ntion of this matter, Su Qingyan’s face changed.
He hadn’t liked anyone.
It was Ye Miaoshan who had misunderstood. She had approached the girl’s parents, accusing her of being shaless, of learning to seduce wealthy people at a young age, and of delusively hoping to marry into a wealthy family.
The incident even spread to the school, where everyone secretly slandered the girl for being shaless.
No matter how he tried to explain, he couldn’t stop these slanders.
Later, the girl couldn’t bear the pressure and transferred schools.
Before she left, she said to Su Qingyan,
You’re really pitiful.
Su Qingyan knew Ye Miaoshan wanted him to beco an excellent person, and probably only a woman from the Li Family would be good enough for her ideal daughter-in-law.
“Qingyan is still so young, why look for a girlfriend now?” Su Fan also believed academics were important.
Ye Miaoshan huffed, “He’s not young at twenty. I know a person whose son had a child at eighteen.”
“What’s there to boast about in such immoral behavior? He’s brought lifelong misery to that girl,” Su Fan frowned.
Ye Miaoshan dropped the subject as she found it a bit immoral too.
If her daughter had had a child at eighteen, she reckoned she would kill the other party.
Ye Miaoshan’s gaze swiftly shifted and suddenly spotted an exceptionally handso man entering her view.
She had never seen a man with such strikingly attractive features that he even drew more attention than her son.
As soon as the man appeared, all eyes were on him.
There was also a beautiful young lady accompanying the man.
These two obviously had an aristocratic air, not just any wealthy family.
After watching for a while, Ye Miaoshan said with satisfaction, “I don’t know which family they belong to. They look a bit alike, so they probably aren’t boyfriend and girlfriend. Qingyan, what do you think? If there’s a chance later, go and talk to them.”
Su Qingyan pinched the bridge of his nose, “Mom, today is the Cheng Family’s banquet, not a matchmaking event. You’re being quite rude.”
“What does it matter? n should marry and won should wed; I refuse to believe there are no eligible socialites here today looking for a husband.”
Ye Miaoshan’s gaze road, searching for her ideal daughter-in-law.
Glancing around, she suddenly caught sight of Qiao Yun stepping out of a car.
Ye Miaoshan’s expression shifted.
How could Qiao Yun be here?
Could it be that Su Mian also ca?
Indeed, how could the Cheng Family hold a banquet without inviting the Lu Family? They’re all from the sa circles in Shangjing City.
She wondered if Lu Jingzhi and Lu Zhanxing had also co.
Just thinking about the possibility of them arriving and overshadowing Su Qingyan made Ye Miaoshan uncomfortable.
Upon spotting his niece, Su Fan imdiately walked over with a beaming smile.
Su Qingyan hesitated for a mont but followed. He had previously misunderstood Qiao Yun as being a bully because of her status, but now he no longer felt the repulsion he had before.
“Qiaoqiao, are you here to attend the banquet as well?” Su Fan asked with concern.
“Yeah,” Qiao Yun certainly rembered her uncle’s family.
Her gaze fell onto Su Qingyan with an ambiguous aning, taking in only a single glance before shifting away.
Su Qingyan shifted his gaze away uneasily, thinking that Qiao Yun knew about the misunderstanding he once had with her.
Looking around, Su Fan didn’t see his younger sister, so he curiously asked Qiao Yun, “Where are your parents? Haven’t they arrived yet?”
Qiao Yun told him, “They didn’t co.”
“Did you co by yourself?” Su Fan was surprised.
“Mm,” Qiao Yun nodded.
The Lu Family had also received an invitation but couldn’t make it because they were tied up with other commitnts.
“How can they let you co to a banquet alone, not fearing any trouble?” Su Fan frowned, disapproving of the Lu Family’s decision.
Even though it was a formal event, what if she encountered so unruly scion?
His niece, so delicate and slight, seed very easy to bully.
“It’s okay,” Qiao Yun blinked, “there are people I know here.”
The host of the banquet was her student.
If trouble were to happen, it simply wouldn’t be with her.
Still, she was thankful for Su Fan’s concern.
“How can it be okay?” Su Fan declared decisively, “Later, you’re coming in with us, don’t leave my side.”
“It’s really fine,” Qiao Yun did not need soone to watch over her.
And having Su Fan watch over her would be very inconvenient.
Ye Miaoshan muttered, “You didn’t run here all by yourself, did you?”
It didn’t make sense for her parents not to co but for her to arrive by herself.
Moreover, she didn’t think Su Mian would allow Qiao Yun to attend such an event alone.
So Qiao Yun decided to co on her own?
Why would she do that?
Could it be that she wanted to mingle with so wealthy people? Her niece was really so opportunistic.
Ye Miaoshan thought this was not right; how could soone so young be so calculating?
“Not to criticize you, but at your young age, you should focus on your studies, not on these little sches. Coming here by yourself is pointless; who would bother with a student?”
Qiao Yun did not understand what Ye Miaoshan ant; why couldn’t she co by herself?
Ye Miaoshan took out her phone, “Wait a mont, I’ll call your parents to co and take you ho.”
This was also a good chance to speak to Su Mian and give her daughter a proper talking-to.
With this thought in mind, she couldn’t wait to make the call.
Such a rare opportunity to ridicule Su Mian was sothing she must cherish.
Before Ye Miaoshan could make the call, soone ca out.
It was the host of the banquet, Cheng Xue, and his wife.
Seeing them approach, Ye Miaoshan was flattered, “Are they coming to greet us personally?”
Su Fan was also startled, “Are we close enough to warrant a personal greeting?”
“Our Su Family is one of the leading families in Yuncheng,” Ye Miaoshan boasted.
Adjusting her hair and extending a gracious hand, Ye Miaoshan said with a fitting smile, “Mr. Cheng, tonight…”
Next second.
A gust of wind whisked by in front of her.
Cheng Xue, with an excited face, ca up right to Qiao Yun, smiling as if he’d t an ancestor.
“Welco! I thought you wouldn’t co. Your presence really graces our house, brings honor to our ancestors, and it’s a fortune of three lifetis, how could we ever deserve this.”
Qiao Yun: “…” Has Pei Yao’s habit of misusing idioms spread this badly?
Ye Miaoshan was stunned, still trying to process it all; what the hell?
Did Mr. Cheng mistake soone else for them?
Wasn’t he here to greet them? Why did he go to Qiao Yun instead??
