Chapter 736 - That Matter Eight Years Ago (5) (1/2)

The next day, when Qiao Lian woke up, Shen Liangchuan was already downstairs working out.

After she finished washing up, she headed downstairs, where she found Xia Yehua frowning while sitting on the sofa and speaking to Auntie Li, “I’m sure he did it on purpose! He already knew that I invited the in-laws for dinner tonight, but he still intentionally made an appointment with them.”

“This old fool, Shen Xiu, is really the death of me! He always has to oppose me in order to feel good about himself.”

“We bought lots of vegetables yesterday.”

As Xia Yehua was saying this, her eyes turned red with indignation.

When Qiao Lian saw this, she was stunned and immediately rushed down the stairs. “Mom, what happened?”

Auntie Li was also livid. “Madam already invited the in-laws to come over to our house for dinner tonight, and everyone had agreed to it. However, Shen Xiu just rang Madam up suddenly to tell her that he has invited the in-laws to have dinner tonight at Together Restaurant, to discuss the wedding.”

Since this meeting was about discussing the wedding, even if Dad Xia wanted to go to their house for dinner, it would not be possible.

After all, as tradition stated, marrying into a family meant that the wife had to follow her husband. Xia Nuannuan was going to marry Shen Zihao and Shen Zihao was from the Shen family, indeed.

Dad Xia probably also would not dare to offend Shen Xiu, because Xia Yehua, as his daughter, was marrying into the Shen Family soon.

Actually, yesterday, Xia Yehua had been the whole day busy with preparations to welcome the in-laws. There was no way Xia Yehua would not be disappointed at the news.

Qiao Lian frowned.

As she was pondering about it, the house phone started to ring.

She walked towards it, answered the call and heard Xia Nuannuan’s voice on the other end of the line. “Hello?”

“It’s me, Nuannuan. What’s up?” Qiao Lian spoke immediately.

Xia Nuannuan’s gentle voice, even over the telephone, could make one feel as if one was bathing in the spring breeze. “So, Zihao’s dad just called to inform us that he has already made a reservation for a private room at Together Restaurant, and he’s inviting us for dinner tonight. However, my dad and Auntie already arranged to meet tonight for dinner. I’ve just discussed with Zihao this issue, so I would like to check with Auntie if she would be fine if all of us had dinner together.”
