Chapter 267: Dont Kiss, It Itches (2)

Translator: 549690339

Before they walked to the hall where the banquet was supposed to be held, the butler, Uncle Chen, came over to talk to Zuo Hancheng about something. It was unknown what they were talking about. Anhao and the maid beside her followed quietly behind them, so they could not hear the conversation between the two people in front of them.

However, her heart started to beat rapidly as she looked up at Zuo Hanchengs back.

He was no longer nervous, but his heart was beating wildly as if it had been filled with honey.

By the time Zuo Hancheng and Uncle Chen finished talking, they had already reached the hall where the banquet was held.

From afar, she could see two unfamiliar figures sitting on the sofa. Although he was middle-aged and travel-worn, the middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties was very energetic and particularly high-spirited. One look and one could tell that he was a leader who had been in the upper cla.s.s for many years. He only needed to stand quietly to give others an oppressive feeling.

The middle-aged woman sitting next to him also looked to be in her forties or fifties, but she was smiling and looked very well-maintained. She looked to be in her early forties, and it was obvious that her kindly smiling face was at least ten years younger than her real age.

The middle-aged woman was well-dressed, unlike the rich ladies that Anhao knew who wore all kinds of luxurious and branded clothes with limited traffic.

On the contrary, she was wearing a very comfortable cotton top and trousers.

From afar, she gave off a very amiable and peaceful motherly feeling.

This was Anhaos first impression of Zuo Hanchengs parents, but she did not know what their personalities were like. Anhao was standing outside the door in a daze when she suddenly felt a warmth on her hand. Zuo Hancheng had already held her hand and led her in.

Li Ming, Han Ke is really a good child raised by the two of you. Hes deliberately making things difficult for me. Ive always wanted him to marry that precious daughter of mine, but he refused five years ago. I thought he was very cautious about marriage, but now he brought back a little girl with no background. Isnt he obviously here to show off? It really p.i.s.ses me off!

The old man was sitting on the opposite side of the sofa with a cold face and kept scolding. Zuo Hanchengs father, Zuo Liming, could not help but sigh and laugh.My old man, how could Xu Yuan and I have taught Han City? Clearly, he used to follow you around when he was young. He only got to where he is today because you taught him how to do business.

Hmph, you two are really connected as father and son. You really know how to put in a good word for him. Five years ago, when he didnt agree to marry Chengxin, you and your wife were on Han Citys side. Now that he married a little girl who came out of nowhere, you didnt object at all?!

Zuo Hanchengs mother, Xu Yuan, could not help but laugh.Dad, dont be too angry. No matter what her family background is, as long as Hancheng likes her, she must have something special about her. The Zuo family doesnt need to rely on marriage to maintain their connections in the business world. The Zuo family has already established a firm foothold in Los Angeles 200 years ago. Why would Hancheng sacrifice their own happiness for marriage?

Old Master Zuo rolled his eyes at his daughter-in-law.lf it werent for the marriage back then, would you and Li Ming have been together? How could she give birth to such a good son like Han Cheng? Dont think that just because Im old, youre all against my actions! Let me tell you, Im not feudal at all! Its just that the children of the Zuo family should find someone who is outstanding in all aspects and worthy of our Han City. Whats wrong with Chengxin?

She had been waiting for Han Cheng for so many years, but she still hadnt gotten married. Her family had been worried sick about Chengxin for the past few years. She had always liked Han Cheng and waited for him, but he actually married someone called His name was GuGu Anhaos little girl came back!

Brother! Sister-in-law!

Zuo Yue, who had been sitting beside the sofa without a word, suddenly raised her head and shouted in the direction of the back door.

The old man paused for a moment and turned to look at Zuo Hancheng and Gu Anhao, who were walking in from the back door. It was obvious that the two of them had heard what he had just said, but the old man did not look embarra.s.sed at all. Instead, he turned his head away with a cold face and did not even bother to look at them.

Zuo Hanchengs mother, Xu Yuan, turned around and walked towards them with a smile on her face. She glanced at Zuo Hancheng first, then at Anhao. Anhao stood beside Zuo Hancheng and looked carefully at Zuo Hanchengs mother, whom she had communicated with over the phone. She felt her palms were about to break out in sweat.

The most important reason for her fear of the Zuo family was because of what she had said to Mother Zuo on the phone. She wondered if Mother Zuo had already disliked her.

Anhao, right? Xu Yuan smiled at Anhao.

Anhao nodded, and Xu Yuan approached her with a warm smile on her face. At the same time, she reached out to hold Anhaos hand.This child, is he nervous because its his first time in the Zuo family? Dont be afraid. The old master is just a little angry. Hes not targeting you. Dont take it to heart.

As she spoke, Xu Yuan looked at Zuo Hancheng and gave him a look.You child, you brought Anhao back without saying a word. Why didnt you tell us in advance? Only Zuo Yue and the old man knew that you were coming back, causing your father and I to rush over, afraid that we would miss the opportunity to meet our daughter-in-law for the first time.

As she spoke, Xu Yuan secretly gave Zuo Hancheng a look. She meant that the old man was in a fit of anger and she wanted him to not bring Anhao along to face the old mans anger. It was obvious that she wanted Zuo Hancheng to act according to the situation and protect Anhao.

Although Anhao didnt understand Mother Zuo, she could understand her every action and look. She turned to look at Zuo Hancheng in surprise and then at Mother Zuo again before she said, Auntie, Im Gu Anhao. Its our first time meeting, but I didnt bring any gifts with me. I really dont have much experience visiting elders.

This child, why are you being so polite with me?Xu Yuan smiled and patted her hand. Didnt Hancheng already give the gifts to the butler when he came back? What other gifts do you need? This is just a formality. We just want you to come back safely.

Anhaos nervousness eased a lot when she saw her mother, who was much gentler and kinder than she had imagined. She always had a warm smile on her face and gave off a warm feeling. However, she still felt awkward because of that phone call.

Anhao whispered guiltily, That Auntie, I was just joking when I received your call by mistake.. Please dont take what I said seriously
