"Qin Yang!" Qin Yuzhen exclaid in surprise upon seeing the handso man with a striking nose, starry eyes, and tall stature.
Luo Chao quickly realized that this man nad Qin Yang was Qin Han's son, which made him his cousin!
Today, Qin Yang was dressed in a black suit, looking incredibly dashing. His wife had given the Qin Family a son, making him proud and beaming with joy. When the lady called his na, his face froze instantly, as the familiar voice brought back childhood mories. He quickly recalled, exclaiming in surprise, "You're my aunt!"
When Aunt left, Qin Yang was six years old, so he could rember her well. Back then, Aunt was very fond of him and would try to et his wishes, even though she was financially strained. As a result, Qin Yang had a fond impression of her.
Qin Yuzhen looked at the nephew she hadn't seen in 22 years, and as he rembered her, she couldn't help but be moved to tears, chokingly saying, "Yes, Qin Yang, I can't believe you still rember ."
Qin Yang nodded, "Of course I rember, Aunt. How did you get in?"
Qin Yuzhen blushed slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed as she replied, "Soone brought us in. Oh, right," looked at Luo Chao and said, "Hurry up and greet!"
Qin Yang seed very friendly, and Luo Chao ward up to him, shaking his hand affectionately, "Hello, cousin, I'm Luo Chao."
"Hello, cousin Luo Chao!" Qin Yang returned a warm smile. When Aunt left, cousin was just born, and he didn't get to see him. In a blink, it's been 22 years; ti surely flies.
Qin Yang felt sowhat nostalgic, but suddenly he rembered sothing, his expression beca tense as he said, "Aunt, cousin Luo Chao, please wait here for a mont, I'll be right back."
Qin Yuzhen was stunned, and after Qin Yang hurriedly left the words, he rushed to the main seat, whispered a few words to his father, Qin Han, causing Qin Han's eyebrows to knit together imdiately.
At that mont, Qin Han slowly stood up and walked towards Qin Yuzhen, and as she saw her brother approaching, her heart started to race.
However, Qin Han's expression showed so irritation, making Yuzhen's heart chill from head to toe. Qin Han approached her and frowned, "Why did you co here!"
Qin Yuzhen's palms trembled as she spoke, "I wanted to see the successor of the Qin Family, my grandnephew."
"You can only cause trouble by coming here," Qin Han said through gritted teeth, feeling very annoyed.
Qin Yuzhen bowed her head, "Brother, we haven't seen each other in over 20 years. I ca because I wanted to see you."
Qin Han's heart twitched slightly, indeed, over 20 years without seeing this only sister. How many more twenty years are there in life?
Seeing that her brother remained unmoved, Qin Yuzhen's heart ached like a knife, knowing that she should leave, so as not to turn a joyful occasion into unhappiness for the entire Qin Family.
"Brother, then I'll leave now," Qin Yuzhen said with a sense of loss.
Qin Han clenched his fist for a mont, sighed, and said, "Fine, have a al before you go."
Yuzhen lifted her head in disbelief, looking at her brother, feeling overjoyed inside, and Qin Han added, "Don't speak loudly, lest your sister-in-law finds out and the entire Qin Family won't have peace."
Luo Chao's breath stopped for a mont, realizing that his mother's estrangent with the Qin Family seed to be because of that "good aunt"!
"Hurry up and greet your uncle," Qin Yuzhen urged, pulling Luo Chao's clothes.
Luo Chao honestly didn't want to bother with Qin Han, but for his mother's sake, he reluctantly called out, "Uncle!"
Qin Han also understood that he had no real familial connection with this nephew, since this was their first eting, he didn't scrutinize Luo Chao much. Instead, placed them at a table at the very back and corner of the banquet.
At this table were so nouveau riche bosses, who smoked intensely and behaved like hooligans, which was why they were placed at the corner table, not well-regarded.
These nouveau riche had so connections with Qin Han's wife, which was why they received invitations, but Qin Han didn't think highly of them.
Evidently, Luo Chao and Qin Yuzhen had beco part of the group not well-regarded either.
This al was bound to be distressing, but Luo Chao couldn't care less. Since his mother insisted on fulfilling this wish, he had no choice but to accompany her.
With nothing else to do, Luo Chao took out his phone and started playing mobile gas, while these nouveau riche, seeing Luo Chao and Qin Yuzhen, imdiately knew they weren't of any consequence and bragged more about how wealthy they were. Luo Chao pretended not to hear, and Yuzhen focused more on the Qin Family, ignoring the braggarts.
At that mont, Luo Chao suddenly put down his phone and whispered to Qin Yuzhen, "Mom, this uncle doesn't seem to be as bad as I thought."
Qin Yuzhen paused, then smiled, "Of course, your uncle adored when I was young, but after he married your aunt, he listened to her in everything. Your uncle's position was also due to the connections from your aunt's family. At that ti, your aunt wanted to marry the son of a provincial official, but I refused and married your dad. Your aunt was furious and said if I were around, she wouldn't be, so I left the Qin Family."
"I see," Luo Chao gazed over at the woman sitting beside Qin Han, reasonably pretty, it's hard to tell she was such a fierce woman. He laughed, "Mom, you made a wise choice!"
Yuzhen laughed, "How so?"
Luo Chao chuckled, "If you had married that official's son, then I wouldn't exist in this world, so you wouldn't have a standout son!"
"Pfft!" Yuzhen spat, giving her son a stern look, "Standout, says who? If you worried your mom less, I'd be utterly thankful!"
Not only did he make mistakes getting expelled from the military, but even back then Luo Chao couldn't find a job, making Yuzhen swallow her pride to approach Qin Han. It truly was a case of failing to et expectations.
Now, thanks to the Ning Family connections, he obtained a decent job, which made Yuzhen feel especially disappointed with her son, although his appeal to won was sowhat comforting, albeit just for now, as she even sought matchmakers for his lifelong affairs.
Overall, Yuzhen was quite dissatisfied with her son's performance.
"Mom, am I as bad as you say?" Luo Chao rubbed his nose awkwardly but didn't bother explaining anything further.
"What do you think!" Yuzhen glared at him again.
