“Grandpa Le.” Feng Jing’s tone was very cold, but he still stepped forward and greeted the old man.
Although Yin Tao didn’t know the old man in front of her, she was very familiar with the woman standing beside him. She was glaring at Yin Tao.
“Why are you still here?” Le Yuan’s face turned insidious when she saw Feng Jing and Yin Tao return together.
She hadn’t expected that Yin Tao would still shamelessly remain in the Feng Family after Feng Jing’s birthday banquet. However, she couldn’t throw a tantrum because there were elders present.
Yin Tao wasn’t a fool. From the way Feng Jing addressed the old man, Yin Tao knew that Le Yuan had brought her grandfather over this time. Her motive was obvious. With Old Master Le around, Feng Jing had no choice but to be more polite to her.
“Yuanyuan, you and Xiaotao know each other. You both work in City A and are Feng Jing’s friends. It’s inevitable that you’ll meet each other.” Old Master Feng noticed Le Yuan’s obvious hostility towards Yin Tao and said a few words to diffuse the awkward situation.
“That’s right, Grandpa. Xiaotao and I are considered friends. We’ve already met when she was with Brother Lin Jia.”
Le Yuan’s expression changed extremely quickly. When she looked at Yin Tao, she still had a frustrated expression, but when she turned to look at Grandpa Feng, she became especially obedient and sensible.
Yin Tao almost laughed in a fit of anger when she saw what Le Yuan did. Before she could reply, she heard Le Yuan’s grandfather slowly say, “Girl, you’re Xiaolin’s girlfriend? Why haven’t I heard Old Lin mention this before?”
“It is all because Grandpa Lin has high standards. Although Xiaotao is fine in every aspect, her family background is average…”
After Le Yuan finished speaking, she pretended to have said something wrong and tried to cover up, “Xiaotao, please don’t misunderstand. It’s not that Grandpa Lin doesn’t like you, but he has such high expectations of his grandson.”
Yin Tao resisted the urge to curse. What she hated the most in her life was pretentious bitches. Yin Ning was one of them, and now there was Le Yuan.
“Hmm, the old man of the Lin family is just an old-fashioned person. It’s such a blessing for a good girl like Xiaotao to be able to marry into the family. Don’t you think so, Ah Jing?” Grandpa Feng also noticed that Feng Jing was now visibly upset after Le Yuan finished speaking. He held back his laughter and asked him.
“Of course. In my opinion, Lin Jia is not worthy of Xiaotao.” Feng Jing looked a little less upset when he heard his grandfather’s words.
Old Master Le coughed lightly. He sensed that Feng Jing was clearly unhappy with what Le Yuan said just now. He hurriedly changed the topic. “Alright, we old fellows can’t figure out the matters between you young people. Since you’re back, let’s go for a meal together. I’ve booked a restaurant. Let’s go over now.” After all, Old Master Le was an elder and Grandpa Feng’s old friend. Feng Jing didn’t refuse, but he stood by Yin Tao’s side with no intention of leaving.
“Feng Jing, Grandpa has booked your favorite restaurant. You should really rest well since you’re usually too busy working in City A,” Le Yuan said as she walked to Feng Jing’s side and tried to hold his arm.
Initially, Le Yuan thought that Feng Jing would not be so disrespectful to her in front of the elders of the two families. However, after seeing Feng Jing avoid her, Le Yuan realized how cold Feng Jing was to her.
“What a coincidence. Xiaotao and I just came back from there.” Feng Jing didn’t look at Le Yuan when he spoke. Her obvious targeting of Yin Tao just now made him feel very uncomfortable. “Why don’t you guys go? Yin Tao and I will rest at home.”
Yin Tao didn’t expect Feng Jing to say it so directly. She looked at Grandpa Feng and Old Master Le’s expressions nervously, afraid that they would have a fallout.
“What’s wrong with that? Just change to another restaurant. They’re not the only restaurant in the capital.” In the end, it was Old Master Le who stepped forward to mediate.
Yin Tao heaved a sigh of relief. Although she disliked Le Yuan, she didn’t want Feng Jing to fall out with the Le Family. After all, Grandpa Feng and Old Master Le were old friends. Yin Tao didn’t want Feng Jing to upset Grandpa Feng.
However, just as she heaved a sigh of relief, the transport logistics became an issue again.
In order to catch up, Grandpa Feng and Old Master Le naturally got into the same car. Le Yuan, Feng Jing, and Yin Tao were left behind. They didn’t know how to arrange their seats.
Yin Tao was really unwilling to sit in the same row as Le Yuan, but she also knew that Feng Jing didn’t want to sit together with Le Yuan.
However, Le Yuan took the initiative to take the back seat. Although she didn’t say anything, she looked intently at Feng Jing with an exceptionally direct gaze. How she wished she could pull Feng Jing to her side with her gaze..
