"Chen Xuan, Auntie misjudged you before and didn't show you enough respect."
"Now Auntie sincerely apologizes to you. I hope you won't take it to heart."
He Lan's face was awkwardly smiling, her cheeks feeling hot and painful.
Chen Xuan felt much better inside, finally making this stubborn mother-in-law bow her head willingly.
It's all about face, or rather a man's dignity.
I can't really make things difficult for her.
"Auntie, there's no need to apologize. After all, you're the elder."
"Do you still have any objections to being with Leshan?"
Chen Xuan said with a playful smile.
He Lan hurriedly waved her hand, "No objections, none at all."
"Such an outstanding son-in-law like you is hard to find even with a lantern!"
"You might as well start calling 'mother-in-law' directly for a closer connection, right?"
Chen Xuan chuckled, "Alright, then I'll call you mother-in-law."
"Father-in-law, focus on developing your career in the future. Song Family, Yuan San, and Jin Dayang are all your strong allies."
"Yes, yes, you've paved the way for , the future is bright!" Yang Xingxiu said with an excited smile, "So, let's go out for lunch and celebrate!"
He Lan didn't object either, stating proactively, "Let's go to the Celestial Guest Building, the city's most upscale hotel, to properly treat our son-in-law Chen Xuan."
Chen Xuan nodded with a smile, turning to look at Yang Leshan, "Didn't let you down, did I?"
Yang Leshan was happier than anyone, reaching out to hug Chen Xuan's neck and giving him a big kiss on the cheek.
"Aweso! You are the best man in the world!"
Chen Xuan chuckled, "You've praised to the skies."
The family joyfully drove to the Celestial Guest Building.
Just as they got out of the car, they saw a wealthy-looking woman approaching with her daughter and son-in-law.
"Oh, isn't this He Lan? You're here for a al too." The wealthy woman said with a sarcastic smile.
He Lan snorted lightly, "Sun Fang, the Celestial Guest Building isn't owned by your family. What's wrong with coming here to eat?"
"Heh, it really doesn't matter to , just looking down on you."
Sun Fang chuckled coldly, "Oh, that guy is your son-in-law, right? I heard he caused quite a scene at Shen Zihao's engagent ceremony, took your daughter Yang Leshan away in front of everyone, quite the bold act!"
"It's lucky Shen Zihao was accidentally killed by one of his n, and the Shen Family suffered destruction last night. Otherwise, would your family still be alive now?"
He Lan looked displeased, "Can't be bothered with you. My son-in-law Chen Xuan isn't as simple as you think."
"Sun Fang, I'm telling you, better not provoke ! Otherwise, if my son-in-law makes a move, none of you will have a good ti."
"Heh, do you think only you have a son-in-law? Just a poor guy with muscles!"
Sun Fang mocked disdainfully, "How could he compare to my son-in-law? Look at my son-in-law, the young master of the second-tier Yan Family!"
"We're here to dine at the Celestial Guest Building as Silver mbers, eating on the third floor! You can only dine on the first floor, hahaha."
Chen Xuan had been to the Celestial Guest Building before, so he was aware of the internal catering specifications.
It's entirely mbership-based.
The first floor is all open seating, where you can dine with just a regular mbership card.
The floors above are all private room areas, each more luxurious than the last.
The corresponding mbership cards are Bronze mber, Silver mber, Gold mber, and the highest level, Platinum mber.
Sun Fang said her son-in-law has a Silver Card, corresponding to the third-floor private room area.
Regarding Sun Fang's flaunting, He Lan naturally couldn't swallow this, "What's so impressive? It's just a Silver Card."
"Heh, judging from your tone, you look down on a Silver Card."
"It's still a hundred tis better than your regular mbership card, which can only get seating on the first-floor open tables!"
Sun Fang sneered coldly, "Son-in-law, take out the Silver Card, let her see and broaden her horizons."
Yan Family's young master Yan Heng took out a Silver Card and shook it in front of He Lan, "Saw it clearly? This is a Silver Card!"
"You can only envy it, no right to enjoy!"
Sun Fang's daughter Zhang Yanyan, holding Yan Heng's arm, mocked, "Dear, you spoke so accurately!"
"This is not just a pure silver mbership card, but also a symbol of status! Only the children of wealthy families are eligible!"
Sun Fang was very proud, taking the opportunity to humiliate He Lan, "He Lan, it's not that I look down on you, there's an old saying, doing well in school is not as good as marrying well."
"You scored better than in school back then, so what? We both gave birth to daughters, my daughter is capable and found a good son-in-law like Yan Heng."
"And look at your daughter, if she had married Shen Zihao back then, I would have had to butter up to you now. It's a pity your daughter is not striving, leaving a rich groom behind to run off with a wild man, who can be blad for that? Hahaha..."
These words made He Lan tremble with anger.
Yang Leshan was also very angry, about to confront the other party, but Chen Xuan grabbed her.
"In matters like this, a man must take charge!"
"Daring to humiliate you and my mother-in-law, I'm going to give them a hard slap in the face!"
Chen Xuan sneered, walking over to He Lan, "Mother-in-law, there's no need to bother with such trash, is a re Silver Card worth showing off?"
"Let's go straight to the top floor, have lunch in the luxurious Platinum mber private room."
