The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.

"I didn't." Luo Huai looked up, tears streaming down her face.

This statement becomes completely unconvincing.

Xing Yanzhao turned and walked ahead, with Luo Huai following closely behind.

After a few steps, the man turned back, picked up Luo Huai with one arm, and said with a sullen face, "You're walking too slowly."

Luo Huai sat in his arms again, afraid of falling, so she had to wrap her arms around his neck, and for a moment she forgot to shed tears.

"Zhao, Brother Zhao..."

"What are you shaking for?"

"Too high." Luo Huai's current posture is a head taller than Xing Yanzhao. He was already at a height of 1.9 meters, but now he is at least 2 meters tall.

I have a slight fear of heights.

As Xing Yanzhao walked, he said, "I've carried you before."

“It’s different.” Before, it was a one-handed princess carry; this is a pure one-handed carry.

A one-handed princess carry and a one-handed carry are two different things.

"The car is over there." Xing Yanzhao didn't let her out, but quickened his pace, opened the car door and put her in the back seat, while he walked around to the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat.

Two people, one in front and one behind.

Luo Huai used to sit in the passenger seat.

She knew the man was angry.

Very angry.

The car slowly drove towards the Xing family's old residence. Xing Yanzhao occasionally glanced at Luo Huai through the endoscope and found that the other party was also looking at him through the endoscope.

Suddenly, the little girl sitting in the back slowly leaned over, put one hand on the back of the car seat, and earnestly explained to him.

"Brother Zhao, it's not because I heard about Brother Yuanzhou..."

Xing Yanzhao glanced at them.

Luo Huai was startled and immediately changed his tune: "It's not because I heard that Pei Yuanzhou has many secret lovers and countless ambiguous relationships that I'm upset, it's because of myself."

"Because I misjudged people, I was one of those people who were ambiguous with each other." Her voice gradually lowered, and her nose, which was always so pathetic, started to sting, so much so that tears welled up in her eyes. "I haven't been in contact with Pei Yuanzhou anymore, I've been blocking him, don't be angry."

“Brother Zhao”.

She looked up at him, her eyes filled with sincerity.

Xing Yanzhao met his gaze for a second, then continued to stare at the road ahead, saying fiercely, "Get back in there. Sit properly."

"Oh." Luo Huai sat back down, taking his hands off the back of his chair.

He didn't say anything more the rest of the way.

One kilometer away from the Xing family's old residence is the Xing Clan Ancestral Hall, which is maintained by dedicated personnel.

Except for major events in the clan or Qingming Festival ancestor worship, it is usually quite quiet.

Previously, when Xing Yanzhao was recognizing his ancestors, he only recognized the old man and the old woman. He had never come to the ancestral hall to pay his respects and offer incense. He was thinking that after the wedding, he could bring Miss Pei with him to be included in the family genealogy.

This is a major event.

However, Xing Yanzhao brought Luo Huai instead of Miss Pei.

The old man and woman personally acknowledged this granddaughter-in-law, so naturally she was included in the family genealogy.

Since Xing Yanzhao and Luo Huai are the Xing family's children and daughters-in-law, what about Xing Zhengyu and Pei Youyou?

Should Pei Youyou be included in the family genealogy as well?

If Xing Yanzhao is included in the family genealogy, Xing Zhengyu will have to be removed from it. How can Pei Youyou be included in the genealogy then?

Logically speaking, Xing Zhengyu and Pei Youyou shouldn't have come, since they aren't members of the Xing family.

Today, all of Old Master Xing's lineage is present, including his younger brother's lineage.

Some people just spoke their minds.

Some people say that no matter what, Xing Zhengyu grew up in the Xing family and worked for the Xing family, so how can he be kicked out of the family genealogy?

So they started arguing.

Luo Huai and Xing Yanzhao stepped into the ancestral hall, where the two sides were already arguing fiercely. Because it was the ancestral hall, they dared not shout loudly to disrespect their ancestors, so they argued in hushed tones, like countless bees arguing and buzzing.

The crowd stopped when Grandpa Xing and Grandma Xing arrived, leaning on their canes.

Xing Yuru helped her grandparents up. When she saw Luo Huai, her eyes lit up and she called out, "Sister-in-law!"

When she saw Xing Yanzhao again, her heart skipped a beat, and she silently shut her mouth.

Grandma Xing patted her granddaughter's hand: "Go and keep your sister-in-law company."

Xing Yuru wanted to go over but didn't dare to.

Xing Yanzhao noticed her unease and went over to the two elders. Xing Yuru immediately came to Luo Huai's side and began to help her recognize people.

Luo Huai had seen most of the faces at the wedding, but Xing Yuru was very enthusiastic in introducing them, and she listened attentively, nodding as she familiarized herself with them once more.

“That’s your cousin, the child of your grandfather’s younger brother. Your aunt was away on a business trip when you got married, so you didn’t see her. You’ll see her in a bit. You definitely know your aunt.”

“Your aunt is very hospitable. When she greets you, just say hello. Don’t talk too much.” Xing Yuru was afraid that she would forget, so she reminded her again, “Don’t talk too much, and don’t get too close. If you really can’t help but look at her a few more times or say a few more words, be careful to avoid Mom.”

Mom doesn't like you in the first place, and seeing this will only make her dislike you even more.

Luo Huai seemed to understand something.

Her mother-in-law didn't like the cousin Yu Rou mentioned.

My uncle looks quite young, with a slicked-back hairstyle and well-dressed.

She was neither fat nor thin, and her eyes were wrinkled when she smiled. She was holding the hand of a little girl who looked about six or seven years old.

He had a decent appearance, but his height seemed to be less than 1.8 meters. Compared to the other men in the Xing family, he was quite ordinary.

Yet, this is the man whose wife is a famous and enduring star in the Chinese entertainment industry, known for her beauty.

No wonder Xing Yuru said she knew him too.

Tang Zhu only plays pretty faces in the entertainment industry. Her acting skills are average. She has a clear self-awareness, so she doesn't play leading roles or make money through acting. Instead, she is a signed artist of her studio, and every artist she signs becomes a hit. They are all talented actors.

Chestnut-colored wavy hair cascaded down Tang Zhu's back; she had thick eyebrows, red lips, and a radiant appearance.

A black turtleneck and a purple coat—she exudes elegance.

She doesn't look like a 45-year-old woman who has had three children at all.

She walked towards Luo Huai in black high-heeled leather shoes, one purple and one white, one dazzling like the sun, the other gentle like the moon.

"Luo Huai? I'm so sorry I couldn't make it back for your wedding. This is your wedding gift." Tang Zhu took out the gift and gave it to her.

Luo Huai accepted it, saying, "Thank you, Auntie."

"You're welcome." Tang Zhu smiled as a little girl called out "Mama, Mama!" and rushed over.

Tang Zhu turned around, bent down, opened her arms, caught her little daughter, kissed her cheek, and walked towards her husband.

The family of three was extremely happy.

Tang Zhu's appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention. Luo Huai glanced at her and noticed a hint of jealousy and a faint hatred in her mother-in-law's eyes that she didn't usually show.

Luo Huai recalled that on her first day at the Xing family, her mother-in-law had told her that the women of the Xing family should not show their faces in public.

My aunt is a celebrity; she not only appears in public, but it's also a profession that's looked down upon by the wealthy.

She also noticed that her mother-in-law was glancing somewhere out of the corner of her eye.

It was her father-in-law.

Xing's parents' eyes were almost glued to Tang Zhu, yet their gazes were worlds apart.

The former subtly hints at...deep affection?

suddenly.

Xing's mother's gaze swept towards Luo Huai.

Luo Huaixin paused.
