The dinner was extremely scrumptious with all sorts of delicacies laid out. Because there were so many people, the dining table was extended out to a really long length.

On Shi Guang’s right was Lu Yanchen, and on her left was Shen Lingshuang, who was extremely passionate and bringing food for her constantly, from prawns to crabs and the likes.

The women were all rather comfortable as they would chat with one another occasionally. However, the men of the Lus were really quiet when they had their meals. Not only that, all of them sat upright like an oak tree.

It was the same for Big Uncle Lu’s family. All of this was probably due to the influence of the Old Master Lu who was from the Red Army. Thus, his descendants were all indoctrinated with the remnants of his military teachings.

Shi Guang was really upright in her posture as well, and was thus teased by Big Auntie Lu.

“I noticed that Shi Guang’s sitting posture looks as though she was from the military. She really IS like one of ours.”

Practically everyone shifted their gazes over at her immediately.

Shi Guang was instantly embarrassed, so shy that she did not even dare to move her chopsticks anymore. “…”

Perhaps due to the fact that she was an athlete, she had always been sitting really straight and upright since she was young. That posture extended to the way she walked as well, and indeed, there were some similarities between that and a soldier.

Lu Yanchen diffused the situation for her and took some food for her. “Eat this!”

Chief Lu looked at Shi Guang’s perfect sitting posture and found it really pleasing to his eyes. Suddenly, he just had this feeling that this girl was almost like a daughter-in-law tailored just for their family.

If not because of… Hais, forget it! Now that things had already come to this, it was better not to talk about some things.

Seated opposite Shi Guang was Lu Yanchen’s 3rd brother, Lu Huainan, and Yan Miaoke. For the entire time, that couple said nothing and ate very little, merely listening to everyone. Even the way they interacted as a couple was really stiff.

Shi Guang was a little curious.

She had clearly remembered Wang Caichun telling her that this couple was well known in the circle to be an ideal couple. But, why were they giving off the feeling as though they were really distant?

Rome wasn’t built in a single day. It seemed as though the way they were behaving wasn’t something that had begun overnight.

As though she had sensed Shi Guang’s gaze, Yan Miaoke raised her head and looked over.

It was an icy cold gaze that seemed as though it was an ice arrow being shot over, exuding a spine-chilling coldness.

Shi Guang could not help but freeze momentarily. Lu Yanchen, who was beside her, had caught sight of it as well and instantly felt some displeasure.

Seated beside Lu Yanchen was the 2nd son of the Lus—Lu Ximo. He had seen everything that was going on.

Afraid that Lu Yanchen might brood into a cold rage, he put his chopsticks down and said in a soft voice to Lu Yanchen, “Alright, don’t give that cold face now. It’s clear that Chief Lu has already accepted your wife, but he’s just finding it hard to put down his image. You should try to understand him as well.”

Lu Yanchen looked at him then continued with his meal. Naturally, he understood the meaning of his 2nd brother’s words. No matter how displeased he was, be it with Father Lu or Yan Miaoke, he would have to hold it in. Otherwise, his wife would be the one on the receiving end of the stick.

To begin with, he had not contemplated on doing anything either.

By the time everyone was done with their dinner, the skies were already dark. Because the table’s diners were all busy people, more than half of them left after the meal.

With the other relatives gone, the only people remaining were those of the Lus.

Shen Lingshuang looked at Shi Guang. “Littly, how about staying the night to rest? You can leave tomorrow.”

After overhearing grandma addressing Shi Guang as Littly that day at the hospital, Shen Lingshuang took to use that name with her as well.

Shi Guang was alright with everything—Lu Yanchen was the problem.

He looked at this well-behaved Shi Guang and then looked over at Chief Lu who had called her a vixen earlier on, claiming that he would never ever let her into the family. Thus, he went silent for a moment, then spoke to Shen Lingshuang, “Go get the box from the cabinet beside your bed.”
