Thinking of this, Su Wan secretly made up her mind to try to improve Jiang Xuecheng's mother's favorability towards her in the future.
Maybe I could ask my grandfather what his favorite student likes? It should be easier to win him over if I start with his hobbies, right
Su Wan frowned and thought, eating rice unconsciously with her hands, as if the sumptuous dishes on the table had no appeal to her at all.
Jiang Xuecheng quickly noticed that Su Wan was absent-minded. Under normal circumstances, this greedy little cat would definitely eat up all the meat with relish.
"Why don't you eat vegetables?"
Jiang Xuecheng raised his thin lips slightly and picked up a piece of spiced mandarin fish with chopsticks and put it into Su Wan's bowl.
After he did this, Su Wan quickly came to her senses and ate the piece of mandarin fish naturally. Because the dish was a little far away for her to reach, she asked Jiang Xuecheng to pick up a few more slices for her.
Unexpectedly, after this action, everyone at the table looked at her with strange eyes.
Only Jiang Xuecheng remained unmoved. He very naturally picked up some fish fillets for Su Wan and also selected a few of Su Wan's favorite dishes and put them in her bowl.
Su Wan felt a little uneasy when being stared at by the elders. It was just a meal, but why did he always feel like a monkey in a zoo
She drooped her eyelashes shyly, and her smile became unconsciously restrained: "Is there a problem? Why are you looking at me like this?"
Luo Xiuxiu was the first to react. She curled her eyebrows mischievously, laughed, then pointed at Jiang Xuecheng and began to explain.
"We just found it strange because it was the first time we saw Xuecheng picking up food for others."
Su Wan was chewing something and almost choked when she heard this - no way, so that meant she should feel honored for her special treatment
Jiang Zhiyuan also jokingly said in a very amiable manner: "Indeed, Xiaowan, you are able to melt my grandson's thousand-year-old ice, which is really amazing."
Su Wan was stunned at first, and then her expression became more and more embarrassed - this was really the most bizarre compliment she had ever heard.
However, the other party was an elder, so Su Wan quickly responded obediently.
Then Luo Xiuxiu stood up, quickly moved closer to Su Wan, and picked up a bunch of dishes for her with a smile.
"Xiao Wan, eat more. It's just the two of you in Fontainebleau, and it's too lonely to eat. If you like, you can come to this old house often to see us. These dishes are all made by our chef. They are not inferior to those in the hotels outside. Most people don't have such a good fortune."
Su Wan was flattered to see the food piled up to the point of overflowing. She could only nod repeatedly, "Grandma, I know. I will come to see you more often with Xue Cheng in the future."
I thought this was the end, but Xu Ziyao suddenly spoke up: "Xuecheng, I don't care if you guys get married in such a hurry, but you can't not hold the wedding, right?"
Jiang Wei, who was sitting next to Xu Ziyao, quickly chimed in, "Yes, Xuecheng, a girl is marrying you, you can't not even have a wedding. I don't care what others think, but the in-laws will inevitably think that our Jiang family has lost manners."
Wedding...
Su Wan was originally worried about the mountain of food in the bowl, but Jiang Xuecheng's parents' words immediately cheered Su Wan up.
In order to avoid misunderstanding, she quickly said: "Dad, Mom, I'm sure you all know that I don't have a good relationship with the Su family. Their opinions can be ignored, but my grandfather is very supportive of my marriage with Xue Cheng. I've visited my grandfather with him before."
"As long as Mr. Xie thinks it's not impolite, what about your wedding?"
The person who spoke was Xu Ziyao.
The question was light and gentle, but it seemed to have a powerful force that made Su Wan feel breathless.
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at Su Wan, and his hand slid down the tablecloth and held Su Wan's hand where no one else could see.
Jiang Xuecheng's knuckles were distinct, and the familiar warm touch suddenly calmed Su Wan.
"We will hold the wedding, but it may be delayed for some time. As for the specific matters, there are too many details involved to explain them all at once."
Jiang Xuecheng said this and immediately stopped the questioning from others at the table.
Xu Ziyao's beautiful eyes swept over Su Wan. As a mother, she could sense her son's concern for this girl.
Her son's personality has been a bit cold since he was young, but she never expected that one day he would be so wholeheartedly protecting others.
When asked on the phone how he met Su Wan, Jiang Xuecheng didn't say; when asked why he got married suddenly, he didn't say either; now when asked in person when the wedding would be held, he couldn't even give a definite answer.
When will my son stop worrying about me
Xu Ziyao sighed silently. Jiang Wei, who was standing by, saw what she was thinking. He picked up a piece of food for her and whispered in her ear to comfort her: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't worry too much about the affairs of the younger generation."
…
After Xu Ziyao put down her chopsticks, Su Wan silently said that she had finished eating. She always felt that although the dishes were delicious, the atmosphere at the table was too weird, which made her lose her appetite.
What exactly is Jiang Xuecheng's position in the Jiang family
Su Wan didn't quite understand, but she felt that these elders were undoubtedly very good to Jiang Xuecheng.
To put it inappropriately, although Jiang Xuecheng is already twenty-seven years old, these people have the feeling that they want to hold him in the palm of their hands. However, they are not close to each other. Instead, there is a certain sense of oppression and distance when they get along with each other.
Otherwise, Luo Xiuxiu wouldn't have kept nagging in her ears, asking her to take Jiang Xuecheng back to the Jiang family's old house often, saying that Jiang Xuecheng only came back a few times a year.
Jiang Xuecheng obviously respected them very much, but this way of getting along inevitably seemed very strange.
After finishing the meal, Luo Xiuxiu took Su Wan to see her and Jiang Xuecheng's room.
Jiang Xuecheng's room was on the third floor. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that the wallpaper was the same cool color as Fontainebleau. The layout inside was also similar, very neat and rigorous, and very much in Jiang Xuecheng's personal style.
Luo Xiuxiu led Su Wan to open the cloakroom, which was fully stocked with women's clothing. It was obvious that preparations had been made in advance to welcome Su Wan's arrival.
Su Wan was touched and thanked Luo Xiuxiu sincerely: "Thank you grandma for being so thoughtful."
Luo Xiuxiu caressed Su Wan's hair lovingly and sighed softly, "We are all family, why are you being so polite? From now on, you should treat this place as your home and come and stay more often."
Su Wan took a deep breath and nodded. Just as she was about to say something, she was suddenly attracted by a photo on the desk.
The photo shows two boys wearing white and blue junior high school uniforms. They look quite similar. The taller boy has thin lips and a stern face, while the shorter one has a naughty smile with a kind of youthful willfulness.
The one with the cold face must be Jiang Xuecheng, so who is the other one
