772 Without a Doub (1/2)

Old Master Jiang loudly chuckled. ”You playful lass. You are still trying to find excuses for your absence?”

”I don't dare to.” Xuxu knew that she was speaking to an elder, so she only teased him appropriately.

Old Master Jiang pointed at her reprovingly with a rather doting expression, just like how a grandfather would look at his granddaughter. Then he turned his attention towards Jiang Qinglian. ”Qinglian, when did you come back? Is Weiye back with you?”

Jiang Qinglian replied with a slight bow. ”I came back two days ago. He is a little busy, so I came back alone.”

As the conversation went on, Jiang Zhuoheng and Hu Xiaoxiao had their eyes fixed on Wen Xuxu. However, both their motives were vastly different.

”So many people are present tonight. I suppose it's an official meet-up between the two families.”

The usually reticent Young Master Yan at such gatherings suddenly spoke as he surveyed the entire Jiang family. Then his eyes finally landed on Jiang Zhuoheng and Hu Xiaoxiao with a smile.

At the same time, he casually stretched his hand and wound it around Xuxu's waist.

Jiang Zhuoheng's mother smiled. She remarked, ”Third Yan, you're absolutely right.”

She seemed rather eager to boast and flaunt.

She wasn't feeling too kind towards Xuxu, too. Just some time ago, Ah Heng and Third Yan had come to blows because of her.

Yan Rusheng's smile deepened when he heard Jiang Zhuoheng's mother. He glanced at Hu Xiaoxiao and said, ”Miss Hu and our dear Young Master Jiang are really a match made in heaven. They look so compatible together.”

Hu Xiaoxiao wasn't stupid, and she knew that Yan Rusheng had purposely lavished praises on them. She pretended to be bashful and smiled. ”Xuxu and you is the real match made in heaven.”

”That is…” Yan Rusheng wanted to say 'right' but someone had interrupted him.

Old Master Jiang suddenly sneered. ”Hmph!”

Yan Rusheng was quite annoyed at being interrupted, so he glanced at the old man with a puzzled expression.
