The surging atmosphere was quickly broken by the arrival of Master An. When Luo Yan saw the energetic Master An, she subconsciously hid behind An Yue.

An Yue was stunned for a moment, turned around, held her hand, and gave her courage. Luo Yan looked at him, her eyes showing a trace of nervousness, and An Yue leaned over and whispered in her ear, "

Don’t be nervous, I’m here!”

"Yes!" Luo Yan nodded, then revealed a comfortable smile.

This slightly tender scene was captured by a pair of sinister black eyes. Although they seemed to be so well matched, in Rong Junlie's eyes, his mood was still unusually calm at this moment.

This kind of calm seemed to contain an unprecedented storm, but he was very careful to hide it, and he hid it extremely well.

Just when An Yue was about to lead Luo Yan towards Mr. An, An Ling had already taken a step ahead of him and grabbed Rong Junlie's hand, dragging him to the front of Mr. Rong.

"Grandpa..." She acted like a little girl in front of her elders when she was cool in the past, which actually made Luo Yan behind her a little impressed.

"Ling'er, are you and Jun Lie here?" Mr. An looked at the pair with satisfaction, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Grandpa, I wish you a happy birthday!" The smile on the corner of Rong Junlie's mouth was polite but a little distant.

On any occasion and with anyone, he could always do this. He was so polite that he seemed approachable, but in fact, the arrogance and condensation exuding from his bones were not easily accessible to everyone.

After delivering the gift, Mr. An asked someone to take it, but his eyes kept falling on his granddaughter and Rong Junlie.

"Grandpa, we will be embarrassed if you look at us like this..." An Lingjiao smiled and couldn't help but lean towards Rong Junlie.

The intimate gestures showed that their relationship was extraordinary, and seemed to hint to the other women in the banquet hall that the man in front of her only belonged to An Ling, and she should not think about anything else.

Mr. An laughed happily, but his smile always gave people invisible pressure.

"Jun Lie, you can't delay your marriage to Ling'er any longer. You know, grandpa, I just want to see my great-grandson. You can't make me wait for a few years, otherwise, I'm an old man.

, but I really can’t wait any longer..."

This is completely the rhythm of forced marriage!

An Ling listened, but shyly took Master An's arm and whispered, "Grandpa——"

"If you say this, Jun Lie will feel a lot of pressure. He has been so busy recently -"

An Ling, who knows how to be a good person, has always given face to Rong Junlie in the An family. Even if she hates marriage so much that she wishes to marry Rong Junlie immediately, she is still very smart to give face to Rong Junlie when there are many people.

Down the steps.

In her heart, her expectations for her marriage to Rong Junlie were no longer so high. She knew that because of Luo Yan's appearance, her marriage would definitely be delayed again and again.

But it doesn't matter. She, An Ling, has been waiting for ten years. Why is she afraid of waiting for a few more years?

Therefore, she was confident and did not want to put pressure on Rong Junlie. Once she relaxed, she felt much more at ease.

Unexpectedly, Rong Junlie suddenly spoke, his tone was neither low nor deep, and several other people standing around him heard it, including An Yue and Luo Yan.

"Grandpa, my wedding to Ling'er is going to be held next month -"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned, and even the air around them became particularly weird.

Luo Yan's heart, which was standing behind them, suddenly creaked, as if something had cracked.

With her eyes twinkling, she quietly looked at the man in front of her, only to see his handsome and masculine profile. He was looking at the beautiful fiancée beside him with a rare and gentle smile.

"Jun Lie, are you telling the truth?" An Ling did not expect that Rong Junlie's change would be so fast. She was stunned there at the moment, completely unable to tell whether her heart should be happy or something else.

Rong Junlie's big hands hugged her shoulders, and An Ling's body stiffened slightly. Rong Junlie had never, never had such an intimate gesture towards her in the An family.

Her heart was touched. It turned out that she had waited for ten years and finally moved this man.

She almost shed tears, but because of her own dignity, she couldn't help it.

"Why, you don't believe it?" Rong Junlie lowered his head and asked, with a deep smile. But why did An Ling still feel that his smile was not warm enough?

Did she see it wrong? She blinked and nodded, "Of course I believe it!"

"Haha -" Mr. An, who was standing by, suddenly laughed out loud and said in a hearty voice, "Our An family is about to have another happy event. Haha, Jun Lie, you kid, you did not disappoint me!"

The muscles in the corner of Rong Junlie's mouth twitched as he smiled, but the corner of his eye passed through the crowd and fell on the petite figure behind him.

She seemed to have no expression at all. She stood there and listened tenderly to what An Yue was talking next to her.

good very good!

After Rong Junlie finally spoke about marriage, An Ling couldn't wait to drag him to meet her parents, and Rong Junlie also cooperated.

An Yue then had the opportunity to bring Luo Yan to his father. He was the youngest son of the An family and had never been married, which worried Mr. An a lot.

"Dad, happy birthday to you!" An Yue held Luo Yan's hand and said with a smile.

Mr. An nodded, but his eyes fell on Luo Yan next to him. Seeing this, Luo Yan hurriedly whispered, "Uncle, I wish you a happy birthday!"

"Is this?" Mr. An frowned, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. When his eyes fell on An Yue's hand holding her, he seemed to understand again, but he didn't realize it and just asked lightly.

One sentence.

An Yue hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "Dad, she is my girlfriend, Luo Yan..."

"Oh!" Mr. An looked at this girl. She was gentle and pleasant, and she seemed to be somewhat compatible with his son. However, he did not show much joy, and just asked in a cold tone, "

Miss Luo, who is in charge of your house?"

"Uncle, my father passed away, and my mother lives with me..." Luo Yan knew that such a wealthy family must care about their family background, but since she had no family background, she had no choice but to tell the truth.

Mr. An nodded and asked, "Where does Miss Luo work now?"

"I...I haven't found a job yet!"

An Yue, who was standing aside, felt nervous as he listened to his father's questions. He quickly changed the subject and reminded his father, "Dad, Yan'er is here to wish you a birthday. Don't scare me...

…”

"You kid!" Mr. An glanced at him with some dissatisfaction, but he didn't seem to intend to let Luo Yan go just like that.

"Miss Luo, where do you live now?"

As soon as Mr. An finished speaking, a high-pitched female voice suddenly came, "Hey, An Yue brought his girlfriend back?"

Luo Yan followed the call and saw a beautiful woman standing next to Mr. An. An Yue, who was beside him, hurriedly introduced, "Yan'er, this is my sister-in-law, who is An Ling's mother!"

This relationship was really embarrassing, so Luo Yan could only nodded to the beautiful woman.

Behind the beautiful woman, a man and a woman soon appeared. It was none other than Rong Junlie and An Ling. However, when the beautiful woman saw Luo Yan's face, she was surprised.

"Hey, An Yue, your girlfriend looks familiar. I seem to have seen her in a magazine..." Upon hearing the beautiful woman deliberately mentioning the things in the magazine, Luo Yan lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Magazine?" Mr. An's shrewd eyes immediately fell on his daughter-in-law, and he frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What magazine? Miss Luo is a star?"

You must know that the An family has a strict family tradition and will never allow a woman with an unscrupulous fortune to enter. Even those female stars outside have a hard time marrying into the An family, because Mr. An pays special attention to the reputation of the An family.

When asked by her father-in-law, the beautiful woman covered her mouth and giggled, and said hurriedly, "Although she is not a big star, this Miss Luo seems to be all over the gossip magazines a while ago!"

"What magazine?" Mr. An asked in a cold tone.

"I really forgot what magazine it was, but father-in-law, don't think too much about it. In fact, those magazines are just like that. They like to take pictures of some people's **!"

"**? Does Miss Luo have any other secrets that have been discovered by reporters?" Mr. An looked over, and Luo Yan's face gradually became a little hot.

She stood in front of them, like a piece of goods that needed to be scrutinized to see if it was qualified. That feeling was extremely uncomfortable.

An Yue, who was on the side, didn't know that this was his sister-in-law's deliberate attempt to make things difficult for him. He hurriedly came to the rescue and said, "Dad, it's not actually a bad thing. It's just that I was photographed by reporters when I was with Yan'er some time ago!"

"An Yue, when did you get entangled with those reporters again? You must know that your current status is no different than before. Any bad negative news will affect your political career!"

Mr. An became strict, and his serious expression made people dare not look directly at him.

When Luo Yan heard what he was scolding An Yue, her body couldn't help but tremble. She grabbed the hem of her skirt with her little hands and pulled it tightly with her palms, causing sticky beads of sweat to appear.

Rong Junlie, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer, and suddenly interrupted, "Grandpa, it was actually the paparazzi who followed me that day, but because I had a date with An Yue for a drink, I accidentally photographed An Yue and Miss Luo..."

Rong Junlie's words came out easily, and everyone was stunned. Mr. An also turned around, but still asked suspiciously, "Is it true?"

Rong Junlie smiled and said, "It's true. Those paparazzi are very troublesome and always try to find ways to create scandals for me. An Ling knows this!"

"Really, Ling'er?" Rong Junlie asked An Ling who was beside him affectionately. The smile on An Ling's lips was a little stiff, so he could only answer sarcastically, "Yes, grandpa, what Jun Lie said is right. In fact, Miss Luo

It was really accidentally photographed!”

Only then did Mr. An turn his attention to his daughter-in-law, and scolded him dissatisfiedly, "Don't talk nonsense about things you haven't figured out yet!"

The beautiful woman apologized awkwardly, "I'm sorry, father-in-law, I didn't mean anything else!"

"I know, the guests are here, you all can come over!" Mr. An waved his hand, and the beautiful woman walked away, but before leaving, she couldn't help but wink at An Ling.

"An Yue, please stay with Miss Luo, I'm coming over!" Mr. An explained to his son again before leaving.

An Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief. He looked down at Luo Yan and saw that Luo Yan's face was so calm that there was no wave at all. Suddenly, he felt that he couldn't understand her.

The birthday banquet was relatively frugal, it was a buffet held at the An family's old house, so people came and went without so much restraint.

After Luo Yan ate something, she wiped her mouth gracefully and whispered to An Yue, "I'm going to the bathroom..."

"I'll go with you..." An Yue stood up immediately. Seeing this, Luo Yan immediately held his hand, "Don't be like this, there are many guests here, I just went to the bathroom, you still go with me

, when others saw it, they didn’t say I was being pretentious!”

An Yue thought about it and felt that what she said made sense, but he was really worried that if he was not by her side, the family would make things difficult for her.

But seeing her confident look, An Yue had no choice but to let go.
