"Who would have thought?" Mrs. Guan sighed, "But in this case, Chuyi and Shiqian seem like a better match."
As soon as she said this, the people on the Ou family side fell silent for a mont.
"Haha, my precious daughter of the Ou family, who isn’t she a match for?" Then, Ou ZhenTing suddenly laughed, changing the subject.
After hearing this, for so reason, Xia Chuyi felt a strange sensation in her heart.
Does Ou Jiang...her dad, not like Huo Shiqian?
No, that can’t be right. She had heard him praise Huo Shiqian before!
She shook her head secretly, surely she was mistaken.
Then, everyone began discussing the family recognition banquet.
Because it was Xia Chuyi’s return to the Ou family as a recognition ceremony, Old Sir Guan agreed cheerfully to lend a store for the Ou family’s use.
"I plan to invite all the military and political figures from the Capital City to the banquet," Ou ZhenTing said earnestly, "As for other military districts, those old guys I know, I will also send invitations."
"Those people’s younger generations are about Chuyi’s age, so I’ll invite them too, to help Chuyi integrate into the circle early."
"And then...at that ti..."
Listening on the side, Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but feel that Ou ZhenTing’s family recognition banquet wasn’t just about having a few witnesses for a al; it was going to be a grand event.
"This...isn’t it too grand?" Xia Chuyi finally couldn’t help but interject.
Mrs. Ou, hearing this, smiled slightly, patting her hand, and said, "It’s not grand, just inviting everyone for a al, formally introducing you."
"That way, whenever you et people in the future, they will know you are our daughter." Mrs. Ou explained gently.
But the more she explained, the more Xia Chuyi felt a difference in perception between herself and her parents.
Seeing her troubled expression, Mrs. Ou imdiately asked with concern, "What’s wrong? Chuyi, you... don’t want to?"
Not want to?
Seeing Mrs. Ou’s cautious expression, how could Xia Chuyi dare to say anything?
"No, it’s nothing, as long as you’re happy," Xia Chuyi said calmly.
After discussing matters, Mrs. Ou reluctantly parted ways with her for a long ti before finally asking Ou Jun to take her back to school.
By the ti Ou Jun dropped her back at school, it was almost dark.
At the school gate, Ou Jun said to Xia Chuyi, "Let walk you in."
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi imdiately said, "Big brother, there’s no need. I’ll go in by myself!"
Avoiding any misunderstanding from Ou Jun due to her tone, Xia Chuyi added, "Big brother, you and mom and dad don’t need to treat like a child. Really, there’s no need."
"Otherwise, with you all being like this, I will feel a lot of pressure," Xia Chuyi finally couldn’t help but say with a hint of helplessness.
Seeing her like this, Ou Jun’s expression turned a little apologetic, "Chuyi, we didn’t an to cause you any inconvenience."
"Inconvenience is not quite it..." Xia Chuyi responded, shaking her head, about to say sothing.
"Ou Jun!" A sudden scolding ca from the side, interrupting their conversation.
Xia Chuyi and Ou Jun turned their heads, only to see Liu Yingying walking over with her head held high.
"Didn’t you tell before that you rejected because you have a fiancée?" Liu Yingying looked at Xia Chuyi disdainfully and said, "Then what is she doing here?"
"Did you take a liking to soone as lowly as her?" Evidently, previous incidents left Liu Yingying very displeased with Xia Chuyi.
Hearing this, both Xia Chuyi and Ou Jun frowned simultaneously.
