Chapter 476 - Meeting the Parents
Chapter 476: Meeting the Parents
“Old Li, don’t be anxious. I don’t know what happened either, he didn’t tell me.”
Old Master Tan glared at his son.
“Dad, I’ve invited her over. She’ll be here soon,” Tan Shilin said.
Old Master Tan looked at the Li Family in embarrassment.
“Why didn’t you tell me? Old Li, I’m really sorry, he didn’t tell me. You made a wasted trip today.”
“Why are you guys wasting my time like this? I have a meeting to attend, so I’ll get going.”
Li Shu didn’t like Tan Shilin either. He looked sloppy and she didn’t want to marry a man that acts like a spoiled brat.
“Old Tan, you disappointed me. You’re making us both embarrassed, as though we’re here to steal the groom.”
Li Mu flicked his sleeves angrily and left.
“Rascal! Why didn’t you tell me you had a girlfriend? You made me so embarrassed today. Which family’s daughter is she? Let me tell you, the Tan Family needs a well-matched family for a daughter-in-law. She can’t be a woman from a small family.”
Old Master Tan spoke solemnly.
“Don’t worry, you’ll be satisfied.”
Tan Shilin was full of confidence.
“Where did you find that family? I heard that your relationship with that beautiful woman from the company is ambiguous. You can’t be with a woman like her.”
Old Master Tan reminded him again. They had lost Hu Hui and couldn’t have another vixen enter their house.
“You’ll know when she comes.”
Tan Shilin kept him in suspense.
Just then, Lan Yaxin rang the doorbell at the Tan Family Villa.
The nanny came in to report.
“There’s a lady outside, she said that Mr. Tan invited her over as a guest.”
Tan Shilin hurriedly said, “Hurry and invite her in.”
Old Master Tan was looking forward to seeing his future daughter-in-law.
Lan Yaxin walked in sensibly with a gift.
“Grandpa, hello, I am Lan Yaxin. This is the best ginseng I brought for you. It is good for your health.”
Lan Yaxin looked gentle, innocent, and clean.
Old Master Tan liked her very much.
He hurriedly accepted the gift and eyed Lan Yaxin, nodding from time to time.
“Alright, alright, sit down.”
Old Master Tan hurriedly got the nanny to serve tea and pastries.
“Yaxin, when did you meet my son? Why haven’t I heard this rascal mention you?”
“Shilin and I have been in a relationship for a long time, but don’t worry, we only started being together after his divorce. Back then, we felt that things were a little unstable, so we didn’t say anything.”
Lan Yaxin became even more well-behaved.
“I see. How old are you? What does your family do?” Old Master Tan asked.
He thought that she looked pretty good, well at least her first impression was good.
“Dad, are you checking her household background?” Tan Shilin said.
“Nonsense! Can’t I understand my daughter-in-law’s family situation? Don’t interrupt me. Miss Lan, don’t mind me. I’m just asking casually. It’s alright if you don’t want to answer.”
Old Master Tan smiled kindly.
“It’s alright, I can answer that. My sister is Mo Jinrong’s wife. Although we aren’t biological sisters, we are still relatives.”
Lan Yaxin didn’t say anything else, this was enough.
“I see.”
Old Master Tan nodded, looking especially happy. It was the dream of many to become relatives with the Mo Family.
“How is it? Are you satisfied?”
Tan Shilin walked over, pulled his girlfriend into his embrace and smiled.
“Satisfied, satisfied. How could I not be satisfied when such a good thing happens? In the future, feel free to come over often. You and Shilin have been in a relationship for so long. Why don’t I meet with your parents to discuss your marriage?” Old Master Tan said anxiously.
“Dad, I don’t want to get married yet,” Tan Shilin muttered softly.
“B*stard, do you think she can afford to wait? I’m already so old, why aren’t you siring a grandson for me? Are you going to donate such a big family business to someone else in the future?” Old Master Tan cursed angrily, then smiled kindly.
“Miss Lan, don’t mind me, I was only lecturing my son just now. What do you think about this? You’ve been in a relationship for so long, why don’t we meet with your parents so that I can discuss the date of the wedding with your parents?”
Lan Yaxin hesitated. She couldn’t explain that her parents were both in jail, so she could only smile.
“My parents are abroad and are busy with business, so they can’t come back. I can handle the marriage myself.”
Old Master Tan shook his head and waved his hand, indicating his disagreement.
“How can the parents not step in when it comes to marriage? If it doesn’t work out, your sister can do it. Why don’t I go to the Mo Corporation to find her and your brother-in-law?” Old Master Tan asked.
He was worried that he wouldn’t have a way to get close to the Mo Family. Wasn’t this a good opportunity?
Lan Yaxin hurriedly denied him.
“There’s no need. My parents aren’t here now and they have their own things to do. They won’t care about me. And my sister is just my cousin. Our relationship isn’t that deep, so there’s no need to trouble her. I can get married anytime.”
Lan Yaxin had taken a big risk this time. Once Old Master Tan went to find Lan Anran, everything about her would be exposed, so she had to calm him down. She glanced at Tan Shilin and gestured for him to talk.
Tan Shilin wanted to laugh. Lan Yaxin really didn’t know how to lie.
“Dad, don’t say so much. I’ve been married once, how could I not know about this? It’s just that Yaxin’s parents are living separately and have their own careers to deal with. Her relationship with her parents isn’t good and her sister is indifferent. Don’t make her call her parents.”
Old Master Tan pitied the girl in front of him and nodded.
“It’s alright if you don’t want to do this, but we have to at least call them. The Tan Family is a reasonable family. We can skip the meeting with parents, but we have to inform them.”
Lan Yaxin nodded, pretending to be obedient.
The Old Master was overjoyed that he had such a good daughter-in-law.
…
Mo Jinrong sent Lan Anran home.
“Anran, you haven’t answered the question I asked you last time. Is that girl you?”
When Mo Jinrong heard her story, he was already suspicious, but seeing her hatred for Lan Yaxin today, it must be her story.
Lan Anran was playing with her phone. She paused and looked up at him, her expression confused.
She thought for a moment and spoke.
“Do you believe in an afterlife?”
Mo Jinrong stared into her eyes with a slightly stunned expression.
