The large box, which can accommodate more than twenty people, has been decorated elegantly and with a touch of warmth.
Lin Yi naturally had no intention of decorating the private room, but the old man was the supervisor this time.
After giving the order, within two hours, the box had completely changed.
Lin Yi looked at the layout of her private room that had been designed by a famous designer and had been drastically modified. Even if she was dissatisfied, she could only swallow it silently.
The old man cannot afford to offend, this is the common understanding of the Zhang family.
Even the most favored Zhang Lingxuan, no matter what his nature is, he still has to pretend to be well-behaved in front of the old man.
But the moment Xu Ling'an stepped into the box door, Zhang Anfeng and Lin Yi watched the old man who had just stood up from the chair perform a big change of face in front of them.
That face, which had always been unsmiling, was squeezed out by a smile that was densely packed with folds. It was so bright that they even thought that the old man in front of them had changed!
"An An is here!"
"This is Sister Gao. Hello, hello, I am Zhang Nachuan. You can just call me Nachuan."
Gao Lan faced Zhang Nachuan's smiling face and hesitated for a moment before directly questioning who was older and who was younger, in case the person in front of him looked older.
She cares more about the other person's attitude than the issue of address.
After living for so many years, especially still struggling at the bottom, her eyes have seen all kinds of things in the world.
When she was at the entrance of the restaurant, the couple who came to greet them, she saw that behind the surface politeness, they were perfunctory and disdainful towards the gifts she handed over and her as a person.
But thinking that these two people are just An An's uncle and aunt, I can barely accept it.
After all, they were separated by one floor. She had also seen her brother and sister turn against each other over the inheritance of the old man's house.
The key lies in An An's grandpa.
Now seeing that the other party's welcoming and joyful attitude couldn't be fake, her anxious heart also dropped.
However, Na Chuan still couldn't pronounce the title, so she still called out the title she had thought of on the way here: "Mr. Zhang, you're welcome. I'm very happy for An An to find her blood relatives."
I feel disappointed, but when I think about what happens in the future... this child still has relatives to rely on, the loss turns into relief.
"Sister Gao, please stop standing and sit down first."
Zhang Nachuan was not at all embarrassed to call Gao Lan sister to Gao Lan who looked younger than him. He had raised his granddaughter, let alone sister, he could just call her aunt.
Zhang Anfeng and Lin Yi had just recovered from the thought that the old man could still smile so brightly, and then watched helplessly as the old man invited people to sit down at the main table. The couple had the same expressionless expression on their faces.
I really don’t know how to react!
After inviting people to their seats and pouring a cup of tea with his own hands, Zhang Nachuan looked at the remaining people.
When facing Jiang Lingxi, her tone was already very familiar, "Miss Jiang and An An didn't delay today's filming, right?"
"No, I just came here after the filming."
"That's good, that's good."
Finally, he looked at Xu Lei, "Is this An An's brother?"
Xu Lei felt that the old man in front of him had looked at him all over with just one glance. He silently recited that he must not embarrass An An today, straightened his back and replied: "Hello, old gentleman, I am Xu Lei, and this is An An." My neighbor’s brother. But I grew up with An An, and An An is my biological sister in my heart!"
"Okay, okay!" Zhang Nachuan reached out and patted his shoulder with approval in his eyes, "Not bad, the young man is strong enough!"
Xu Lei suddenly grinned with big white teeth.
"Come on, sit down, sit down. Just do whatever you want."
The old man personally carried him by the shoulders to his seat. When he was about to sit down, whether intentionally or not, Xu Lei turned around and glanced at An An's uncle and aunt who were standing there.
Lin Yi received Xu Lei's gaze: "..."
He was still standing here, and the little gangster he had almost driven away before became the old man's guest.
Without touching it, she knew that her face would be burning hot right now.
"Dad, Mom, why are you standing at the door?"
Zhang Lingxuan led his daughter through the door and was about to call him grandpa when he saw his father and mother standing side by side at the door, blocking the door to the private room.
Lin Yi heard her daughter's voice and turned around as if relieved. She bent down to pick up her granddaughter and hugged her, "It's okay. Your cousins are already here. Come in and meet her."
This sentence immediately made Zhang Lingxuan swallow back the question he was about to ask, "Mom, why are your face so red?" and turned his neck slightly to look into the box.
The first thing she saw was Jiang Lingxi who was already seated. After she went back last night, she searched for Jiang Lingxi's information. Now that she saw the real person, her face was even more eye-catching than the pictures and videos she had seen before. The child was right.
Then he saw the little girl sitting quietly next to Jiang Lingxi.
It is another kind of smart and beautiful.
Yesterday, she dug out the photo of her and her little aunt at the bottom of the box, and the face she saw looked exactly like the little aunt in the photo.
I think in a few years, it will be more like it.
No wonder Grandpa recognized him at a glance!
Although her mind was racing over and over again, she walked over with a smile on her face: "This is An An, she looks so much like my little aunt. An An, I am your cousin."
As soon as Xu Ling'an stood up, Zhang Lingxuan, who came over, enthusiastically pulled her into his arms and hugged her, "An'an, I'm so happy. I never thought that one day I would have such a cute and lovely sister!"
This enthusiasm really made Xu Ling'an a little overwhelmed. He had nowhere to put his hands and responded dryly: "I, I'm very happy too."
Zhang Nachuan looked at the scene of the two cousins embracing each other with a face filled with relief.
After Jiang Lingxi glanced around, she picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip.
It’s understandable that as an elder, who wouldn’t want to see such a warm and loving scene!
When the cousin who came up and gave him a hug finally let go, Xu Ling'an was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the cousin in front of him hand over another black and gold box.
"When we meet for the first time, I, as a cousin, can't just say nothing. I heard from grandpa that you are going to college soon, so you probably haven't bought a laptop yet. There are many places where you need to use this thing in college. No. , take it!”
"this……"
Zhang Nachuan nodded approvingly towards the eldest granddaughter group, and then advised: "An'an, the people standing in the box now are all family members. Just take the gift your cousin gave you."
"Thank you, cousin."
Zhang Lingxuan took the opportunity and sat down on the seat on the other side of her.
At the same time, he waved to his daughter who was looking over, "Nanny, come here, this is your Aunt An An."
Xu Ling'an: "..."
She has grown up now!
"I, I don't know, didn't prepare a gift."
Zhang Lingxuan waved his hand nonchalantly, "You are still a student yourself, how can I ask for a gift from you?"
Zhang Nachuan couldn't see that his granddaughter was uncomfortable because of this, and nodded: "That's right, she is a three- or four-year-old girl who doesn't understand anything. There is no need to prepare gifts. Besides, I didn't tell you in advance that your cousin has a daughter. , I just don’t want you to bother preparing anything, as long as the people arrive!”
The smile on Zhang Lingxuan's face paused, and he lowered his head to look at his daughter who was trotting over here, "Come, let's see if your Aunt An An is particularly beautiful? Go and let your Aunt An An give her a hug!"
The little girl stepped forward and looked up in the direction her mother was pointing. After hesitating for a moment at the two unfamiliar faces sitting nearby, she stretched out her hand towards Jiang Lingxi and said, "Beautiful aunt, give me a hug!"
There was silence in the box for a moment.
Jiang Lingxi put down the tea cup in her hand, looked down at the little girl who was waiting for her to hold her arms, picked her up and turned her around half a circle, and corrected her in a cool and clear voice, "Admit your mistake, this is your Aunt An An .Do you recognize it this time?"
After saying that, she sent him to Xu Ling'an's arms and glanced at Zhang Lingxuan.
This temperament is too bad.
Even if you have to pretend, you should pretend it till the end!
