Qiao Xiaren just noticed Wang Yi and the others also arrived, the little girl almost pounced over, jumping with joy: "Congratulations to our Xiaren for winning the international award for Best Actress!"
Holding onto Qiao Xiaren’s arm, Wang Yi mischievously winked at Si Limo: "Hello, brother-in-law."
When she pounced over earlier, Si Limo visibly frowned, obviously displeased with her action. It’s clear this man has a strong possessiveness toward Xiaren.
No point being unhappy, she’s going to hug anyway!
Already marrying such a beauty, yet still so stingy!
Si Limo: "..."
Being called brother-in-law by a 20-year-old girl, it just feels off sohow.
Xiaren is half a year younger than Wang Yi, yet that’s how she calls him.
Seeing Si Limo’s almost stiff expression, Qiao Xiaren chuckled inwardly, nudged his shoulder: "Let’s go, let’s head inside."
"Alright, let Xiaren rest well. Why are you bouncing around like a monkey!" Qiao Lang chided, instructing his son to bring the things inside.
"Miss." Upon seeing Qiao Xiaren return, Uncle Wu’s originally expressionless face showed a trace of other emotion, which surprisingly appeared more gentle.
Qiao Xiaren smiled gently: "Uncle Wu, Aunt Fang."
Si Limo closed the car door, brought out various luggage from inside, with Uncle Wu and other maids coming up to help.
"Ranran, co over quickly, your grandmother just asked the chef to prepare lunch."
"Sure, Grandpa."
Everyone chatted and laughed at the door for a while before entering the villa together.
"Where’s that Yeqian? Why isn’t he back yet?" Qiao Lin turned around, noticing his son wasn’t there, handed his suit to the servant, and changed shoes at the entrance.
He is quite strict with this son. Especially since he’s not yet twenty, Qiao Lin is worried he’ll ss around sowhere.
Qiao Xiaren silently lit a candle for Yeqian, thinking according to Qiao Lin’s words, boys in the Qiao Family need to be trained, girls need to be pampered.
"Why do you keep showing him this attitude all the ti, the boy will at least be scared away by you," Nie Lin said helplessly, taking the suit from the servant and hanging it aside, while Qiao Lin’s face showed a resigned expression, his tone softening, "I’m just worried about his art exams, there’s less than half a year left."
Qiao Lin cherishes this child whom he unexpectedly connected with very much, yet as a father he’s still not completely accustod, leaving him sowhat at a loss.
Qiao Xiaren looked at the couple’s interaction style, it comforted her greatly. It’s quite fortunate, their encounter was so extraordinary at first, yet they can still be together, warmly and happily.
Nie Lin glared at him, complaining to Qiao Xiaren: "In the future, when our Xiaren has kids, you mustn’t follow your uncle’s ways."
The atmosphere at ho was as warm as ever, with the family sitting down, the joyful and lively ambiance lifted Qiao Xiaren’s spirit, erasing all fatigue from the journey.
During lunch, Shangguan Xue’s call ca in, already impatient to see Qiao Xiaren.
"Xiaren, your coming-of-age ceremony is almost here, why don’t you go with Grandma tomorrow to the Shangguan Family, you both should learn and see those things properly." The old lady knew her granddaughter was quite clever and isn’t worried about her learning slow in this aspect, which is why she’s not in a hurry to have her return ho.
The coming-of-age ceremony is starting soon, it’s an important event for the four major families.
