Chapter 660: 414 The honest young man’s sudden tenderness (2 updates) 3

Actually, Granny Jiang didn’t truly adore Huo Qingji, she just felt that her old man always opposed her and

wanted to contradict her, which made her uncomfortable, so she simply kept praising him.

"Look at what you're saying, Xiaowu has a sweet mouth, don’t you think he’s just good at sweet-talking?"

Grandpa Jiang didn’t show any weakness either.

"There aren't many Xiaowus in this world, don’t use special cases as examples, | think that young man is

sensible and genuine, why do you have to be against him?"

"I'm not against him."

"You're still being stubborn, I think you're just jealous that he’s young and handsome, and tall."

Shen Shuci felt somewhat helpless, what sensible and genuine young man, that he could cause her parents to

"argue" like this.

Tang Lao knew that these two were just bickering, how could they really hurt their feelings over an "outsider"?

He didn’t get involved and just enjoyed the show.

But suddenly the two stopped talking, Shen Shuci guessed that the person in question had cback, she just

turned her head and saw a long arm stretching over to pour tea for the three elders, a tall figure shadowed over,

Shen Shuci didn’t even see his face before she guessed who it was.

Why is it him...

What karma did she create...

Shen Shuci’s fingers tightened slightly, previously unfamiliar and unacquainted, she always felt he was an

unnecessary presence, but now there was a feeling that she couldn't escape him no matter what.

"Xiaohuo, thanks for your hard work, take a seat!" Granny Shen smiled, "By the way, this is my daughter, Shen

Shuci, you probably know each other, right?"

"We know each other." Huo Qingi sat down next to Shen Shuci, "Not only do we know each other, but we also..."

Shen Shuci’s pupils trembled, and she immediately grabbed his hand that was underneath the table!

Please don’t spout nonsense.

Knowing him for so long, she understood his straightforward nature, and she bluntly blurted out:

"We are very familiar, we've kissed and hugged!"

Her parents definitely couldn't handle it.

"What did you say?" Granny Shen was curious.

Shen Shuci clutched his hand tightly, her face composed but her heart turbulent.

"We also both live in Hexi, Jiang Grandma even once told me, since she lives alone outside, to take extra care of

her." Huo Qingi spoke calmly, but clasped her hand back.

"This Jiang family is really courteous, busy preparing for a wedding and still thinking of our family, having

someone look after Shuci, Wanwan is truly blessed to marry into them, later we should toast them a few more

drinks..." Granny Shen naturally appreciated the Jiang family.

While Shen Shuci’s hand was clasped, almost wanting to break free but unable to, she gave him a glare, but he

suddenly smiled at her.

She was frightened silly again!

What was he smiling about?

Such an unexpected gentle smile, if it were someone else it might be fine, but on his face, it was rather

ambiguous and eerie.

Scared, Shen Shuci’s heart skipped a beat, what was he trying to do?

With the wedding about to start, guests were also taking their seats.

The ceremony was about to commence, aside from the maid of honor who had tasks like handing over the

wedding rings, the best man had almost nothing to do, sat at his own place waiting for the wedding to start.

"Lao Huo, you sit at Zeyan’s table." Jiang Yanting originally thought Huo Qingi wouldn't make it back, but there

was still a place for him.

"That's okay, you go ahead with your tasks, don’t mind me."

Everyone from the Jiang family was busy running around, after Huo Qinqi took his seat, the table was full of

people around his age, but no one dared to speak casually until Qi Zeyan took his seat, then the atmosphere

beclively.

A group of men of similar ages sat together discussing work, salaries, cars, women... just those few things.

Talking about dating, someone joked, "Hey, last night at the party didn’t you ask Miss Shen for her WeChat and

then chat with her?" referring naturally to last night's singles party.

Huo Qingi wasn’t acquainted with them, nor did he join in their topics, he was playing Minesweeper on his

phone, but hearing the words "Miss Shen," his fingers paused.

"Don’t mention it, | sent her several messages, she didn’t reply, too awkward."

"l also messaged her, sno reply, she’s too aloof, really hard to approach."

"Should we ask Xiaosi to help out again?"

Having Jiang Chengsi help out again made Qi Zeyan uneasy.

Continuing this, Jiang Chengsi’s secrets would all spill out.

Qi Zeyan took a sip of tea and observed from the corner of his eye, as he tapped on his phone screen, his face

completely unreadable.

"Which Miss Shen are you talking about?" There were people at the table who weren't at the party last night and

were clueless.

"Shen Shuci, the younger aunt of Jiang’s wife."

"Boom—" A sudden thunderclap.

Everyone was chatting spiritedly, suddenly hearing a thundering sound, all were startled.

"Sorry, playing Minesweeper... stepped on a mine..." Huo Qingi tightly pressed his lips.

"No worries, no worries!" Everyone quickly indicated it was okay.

But as they chatted, Huo Qingi’s explosions becmore frequent.

They were not familiar with Huo Qingi, but seemed to sense his mood wasn’t good, could it be they were too

noisy, talking too much?

After a while, everyone also dared not speak casually, simply bowed their heads and played with their phones.

And Qi Zeyan, sitting closest to him, every explosion made him jump.

"You guys..." Huo Qingi looked around the table, "Are all close with Chengsi?"
