Even though grandma was a little troubled, she did not think too much about it. At least, her thoughts did not go to the extent of the two of them breaking up.

Her worst guess was that they had quarreled and were at odds.

For her, she would rather believe that the reason why Lu Yanchen had not told Shi Guang about his return yet was so that he could give her a surprise.

Tomorrow. Shi Guang will definitely bring him to come see her tomorrow.

The next day, before Shi Guang arrived, grandma found herself welcoming some other guests first: Qiao Yuwei and her mother.

Toward the visit of this pair, Mo Ziying was extremely displeased. She knew of their motive for coming here. While she did not know the exact situation, she knew that Qiao Yuwei had been pestering them for Shi Guang’s number recently.

In fact, she didn’t even do it herself. She first got her mother to do so, before getting her grandma 1 along.

Because of that, Mo Jin had been reminding her consistently not to give Shi Guang’s number to them. She was certain that their motive for being here today was none other than Shi Guang.

However, no matter how displeased she was, she had to welcome them with smiling faces.

All this while, Qiao Yuwei had been steaming with a belly full of rage over her uncle’s family and that Shi Guang. None of them wanted to see her do well, and because they knew that she was trying to get to Lu Yanchen through Shi Guang, none of them wanted to give her Shi Guang’s number!

Qiao Yuwei was no ordinary person. Her dreams of hooking herself a rich husband were way wilder than anyone could imagine, and because of that, her resolve toward that cause was way tougher than anything else.

Therefore, she had spent the entire time thinking about how she could get any chance at this.

The moment she knew that Mo Ziying had arrived at the provincial city and that Shi Guang’s grandma was in the hospital, she came all the way here under the pretext of visiting her.

Standing at the side and listening to the three elders chat awkwardly for a while, she could not hold it back any longer and blurted out, “Where’s Shi Guang? Why isn’t she here to take care of her grandma?”

Grandma looked at her indifferently. “She has got something on.”

Mo Ziying chipped in, “She won’t be coming over today.”

The moment she heard that, Qiao Yuwei’s face turned completely black.

Mummy Qiao had a cold face as well. “Now, sister in law’s mummy, don’t blame me for being straightforward with my words. But really, your family’s Shi Guang is really a little tactless. Our family’s Yuwei is so good looking, with no lack of suitors who drive nothing short of Porsches and BMWs. But even then, she doesn’t bat an eyelid in their presence. After a good long time, just when she finally found a guy she could take a liking to, your family’s Shi Guang insisted on being an obstacle. We can all be considered relatives as well, so why does she insist on seeing our Yuwei failing?”

The humoring smile on grandma’s face disappeared immediately. Mo Ziying knew that these two were just here to look for trouble.

She stood up. “It’s getting late now—my mum needs to rest.”

Mummy Qiao then barked out at Mo Ziying harshly, “Sister in law! Aren’t we just asking for your Shi Guang’s phone number to help our Yuwei look for her one true love? Do you have to act this way? Let me tell you! That Young Master Lu—Lu Yanchen—has definitely taken a liking to our family’s Yuwei! No matter how much you guys want to stand in their way, you wouldn’t be able to block out their love!”

Her tone was totally infuriated.

Mo Ziying wanted to roll her eyes. Although, she only knew Lu Yanchen as Little Chen—grandma was the only one who knew his full name.

She frowned. “Wait, who did you say has taken a liking to your family’s Yuwei?”

“Young Master Lu, Lu Yanchen…”

Grandma’s tone was totally cold right now. “You guys must be mistaken! Little Chen is our Shi Guang’s boyfriend!”

Mo Ziying froze up. Little Chen was Lu Yanchen…?

“Impossible!!” Qiao Yuwei’s face was totally astounded. “She’s only Lu Yanchen’s swimming coach! That’s what she had claimed herself!”

Mummy Qiao roared out, “How despicable! To think that she would try and snatch a target that her cousin fancies! Really, only YOUR family is capable of doing something as such!”

That woman with her ill intents was totally insinuating that Shi Guang was a scheming and evil woman!

Looking at how grandma’s expression was getting worse by the moment, Mo Ziying was infuriated as she chased them away. “Please leave!”
