The living room of the Huo family mansion.

Old Mistress Huo put down the phone and said, “Wenxiu, we can have dinner now.”

“Aunt, it’s still early. Let’s wait a little longer.” It was a beautiful middle-aged woman who had spoken.

Her daughter, Xiang Ranxin, was sitting next to her. She was beautiful and demure, and was wearing a white dress that made her look even more delicate.

Old Mistress Huo smiled as she waved her hand and said, “There’s no need. I already asked him in the morning and he said that he will only be back in the afternoon. If that is the case, then we had better eat first. When Ah Shen comes home later, he and Ranxin can have a good chat.”

As soon as she heard those words, Xiang Ranxin felt her cheeks getting warm and she hurriedly lowered her head.

Old Mistress Huo was very satisfied when she saw Xiang Ranxin getting shy and flustered. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her.

The eldest young lady of the Xiang family was twenty five years old this year. Not only was she pretty and elegant, she had a good disposition.

The two families had come up with a private arrangement for her to get married to the second young master of the Huo family, Huo Nuanyang.

However, ever since he got promoted in the X team, Huo Nuanyang rarely came back home. He would be absent all the time and only came home several times a year, so the youngsters had no chance to meet each other at all.

On the contrary, after he returned to China, Huo Jingshen could often be seen walking in and out of the compound. Therefore, Mrs. Xiang took a fancy to him instead.

Old Mistress Huo wasn’t bothered about whether it was Huo Jingshen or Huo Nuanyang as both of them were her own biological grandsons, after all. Moreover, Huo Jingshen was two years older than Huo Nuanyang, so Old Mistress Huo felt that it would be a good thing if Xiang Ranxin could be with Huo Jingshen instead.

She had called Huo Jingshen early in the morning and asked him if he had any intention of getting married soon. To her surprise, Huo Jingshen not only said that he wanted to get married, but he also told her that it would be better if he could get married soon. He had even asked her to pick an auspicious date for him to get married. When Old Mistress Huo heard that, she was overjoyed and immediately contacted Mrs. Xiang to arrange the blind date today.

Everyone moved into the dining room, chatting and laughing.

As soon as they sat down, one of the maids ran over. “Old Master Huo, Old Mistress Huo, the eldest young master is back.”

“Oh, what a coincidence!” Old Mistress Huo stood up quickly, and headed for the living room. As soon as she walked in, she  froze at the scene before her.

Huo Jingshen was standing in the hallway, but with a young girl beside him!

She was quite beautiful and looked to be around eighteen to nineteen years old, with fair skin that made her look like a porcelain doll.

“Ah Shen, who is this?”

Huo Jingshen casually replied, “My wife.”

“What?!” Old Mistress Huo shrieked.

The expressions of the people who had followed her to the living room also changed instantly.

Su Wanwan was quiet as she looked at them uncertainly.

Huo Jingshen glanced at everyone briefly, a calm look on his face as he murmured, “Greet them.”

Su Wanwan blinked, slightly dazed.

Greet them?

It was only when Huo Jingshen squeezed her hand gently that she finally regained her senses. She quickly opened her mouth and said, “Hello, Grandpa! Hello, Grandma!”

After that, she looked at the well-dressed mother and daughter pair. After thinking about it for a moment, she said, “Hello, aunt! Hello, elder sister!”

It was fine if she greeted them like that, right?

Unexpectedly, the expression on Mrs. Xiang’s face turned even uglier.

Xiang Ranxin looked upset and embarrassed. Compared to this young and lively girl, her twenty-five years of age felt so old.

Old Master Huo and Old Mistress Huo’s expressions were not any better.

Su Wanwan felt very nervous as she looked at Huo Jingshen.

Had she greeted them wrongly?

Huo Jingshen was also looking at them as he asked Su Wanwan, “Are you hungry?”

“I am not hungry.” As soon as Su Wanwan said that, her stomach growled loudly. As no one was speaking at the time, the sound of her stomach rumbling resounded through the living room.

The corners of Su Wanwan’s mouth twitched slightly as her cheeks burned. Damn it, did her stomach have to embarrass her like this?! She had wanted to leave a good impression on her elders since this was her first time here!

Huo Jingshen chuckled mirthfully, then called out to a maid who was standing nearby: “Aunt Xiu, is lunch ready?”

“It’s… It’s ready, eldest young master.” The maid hesitated briefly, then hurriedly went to bring the dishes out. The atmosphere was strange so it was best if she did not stay for too long.

Huo Jingshen did not notice the odd atmosphere and walked into the living room, holding Su Wanwan’s hand tightly.

The four people standing on the other end were all extremely silent.

After a while, Mrs. Xiang opened her mouth and said stiffly, “I am sorry, but I suddenly recall that we have something to settle at home, so Ranxin and I will go back first.”

Old Mistress Huo was also very embarrassed and quickly said, “Okay, then. I will see the both of you off.”

“Ah, there’s no need-”

“No, I have to. I have to…”

Su Wanwan was dumbfounded. Turns out that she had greeted them wrongly. This mother and daughter pair were not Huo Jingshen’s relatives, but their guests.

Before she could think about it, Old Master Huo said, “Ah Shen.”

Huo Jingshen turned to his grandfather.

Old Master Huo had a serious look on his face as he said sternly, “Come with me to the study room for a moment.”

“Okay, Grandpa,” Huo Jingshen replied respectfully, then whispered to Su Wanwan, “Wait here for me, I will be right back.”

“Okay.” Su Wanwan nodded obediently, the epitome of a gentle and polite young lady.

Old Master Huo glanced at her from the corner of his eye, then quickly turned around to leave.

As soon as Huo Jingshen followed the old man into the study room and closed the door behind him, Su Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief.

She initially thought that the Huo family were from new money, who had just become rich after starting their own business. They were only slightly richer and more powerful compared to the Xing family after all. Unexpectedly, Huo Jingshen’s family background was actually a lot more complicated, and even his house looked like a mansion that was usually only seen on television.

When she had entered the door earlier, the guards who were standing there made her feel as though she was passing through a battlefield.

“Third young master.”

There was a movement at the entrance again. Was it another member of the Huo family?

Su Wanwan immediately sat upright, expression serious.

She had to leave a good impression this time!

She could hear footsteps coming nearer and nearer, and then-

“Su Wanwan!”
