On his rare day off, Jin Ruiyang certainly wouldn’t waste his ti idly at ho.
The next morning, he made a special effort to dress himself up from head to toe and even washed his hair specifically for this occasion.
Before leaving the house, Jin Ruiyang hesitated over whether or not to wear his glasses.
After lingering at the door for a few minutes, he finally decided to hook the pair of glasses in his hand instead.
He liked the way Xiao Sisi would stare at him dreamily.
Now that it was confird she liked him for himself, sprucing up a bit now and then couldn’t be considered too much.
Just as a woman dresses to please the one she cares for, so does a man.
Ye Qin didn’t go to work today and upon seeing her son’s beaming smile, she had a hunch.
"Son, are you going on a date?" Ye Qin asked.
"Mm!" Jin Ruiyang replied happily, and in front of Ye Qin and his family, he was still that gentle and refined good son.
Ye Qin smiled and shook her head. Now that Jin Ruiyang and Xu Sisi were engaged, she no longer worried about her son’s marital affairs.
After all, was it not just a matter of ti before she could discern whether the young lady from Xu Family held a place in her son’s heart?
At the Xu Family residence, Xu Sisi stood before the mirror playing with her hair. Gazing at the increasingly fair girl in the mirror, Xu Sisi made a scissors gesture.
After getting ready, Xu Sisi slipped on her high heels. For her first serious date, Xu Sisi dressed herself towards the image of a graceful and refined young lady.
However, she was not adept at wearing high heels and descended the stairs cautiously.
Seeing this, the old lady laughed until her eyes disappeared into crescent moons, patting Xu Wentian’s hand, "Old man, our Xiaohei has grown up."
She’s even learned to dress up on her own.
Xu Wentian looked up at the careful manner of his granddaughter and frowned, "Sisi, do you want to change to a pair of shoes?"
Clinging nervously to the banister, Xu Sisi heard Xu Wentian’s words and let out a dry chuckle, "Grandpa, no need, I can manage."
Today, her high heels were even taller than the ones she wore for the engagent.
Descending the stairs, she found herself involuntarily leaning forward.
She didn’t dare to get distracted by talking.
Finally reaching the bottom, Xu Sisi let out a huge sigh of relief.
"Phew..." She had finally made it down.
The old lady knew Xu Sisi was going on a date today and, surprisingly, didn’t tease her granddaughter, but instead asked caringly, "Do you want to eat sothing to line your stomach first?"
Not being teased by her grandmother made Xu Sisi instantly touched, "Grandma, you’re so kind."
She made her way to the table, trembling slightly.
The old lady let out a "heh" and said, "This is because I’m afraid you’ll eat too voraciously and might scare that boy, Ruiyang. We can’t have a granddaughter getting ’returned’ after finally getting her married off."
Xu Sisi: "..."
Why did she feel moved again?
Hmm?
Was the food not tasty enough, or was the dress not pretty enough to distract her into feeling touched?
"Grandma..." Xu Sisi humphed with feigned petulance, "I’m not married off yet."
"Then you definitely can’t scare Ruiyang. Hurry up and eat sothing to line your stomach," the old lady insisted cheerfully, handing Xu Sisi a peeled egg.
Xu Sisi was starting to feel a bit spacey, just like her father.
The old lady rarely exerted authority, which made Xu Sisi arrogantly stomp her foot for a second, "Grandpa, aren’t you going to do sothing about Grandma? Who talks about their granddaughter like that?"
And who is Xu Wentian?
He was utterly devoted to his wife. After hearing his granddaughter’s complaint, he not only did not reprimand Gao Lihong but also gently held the old lady’s hand and kindly said to Xu Sisi, "Your grandma has a bad temper, so just let her be and don’t make her angry."
Xu Sisi: "..."
