Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 700: Face

Whose stubborn temper did Cheng Che inherit? Who else could it be?

Old Master Yin could not help but feel suffocated. Genes were indeed a miraculous thing. ‘That damnable woman was just as stubborn! If she had taken a step back in the past, would we end up like this now?’

Yin Bin could not help but feel anxious. He quickly looked at Yin Jia for help.

Before Yin Jia could speak, Ye Cheng asked, “Cheng Che, how’s Old Madam Mu’s health?”

Everyone was stunned by Ye Cheng’s abrupt change of the topic.

Cheng Che did not reply immediately.

Ye Cheng smiled and continued to say, “You and Mu Chen have always been filial to Old Madam Mu. For his grandmother’s sake, Mu Chen did not hesitate to marry someone he found on the streets. You’ve also been obedient and sensible for her sake.”

This was the first time the Yin family had heard about Mu Chen’s marriage. Everyone was curious, especially Yin Yi, whose eyes lit up immediately.

Ye Cheng said slowly, “Since you treat Old Madam Mu so well, you should treat Old Master Yin the same, right? Even if you don’t care about blood relations and only treat him as an elder, you shouldn’t speak to him in this manner, right?”

Cheng Che did not speak, but everyone could see his expression had eased.

Ye Cheng heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. He had no idea why Cheng Che was giving him so much face today, but he was not going to question his good luck. Since Cheng Che seemed to be tacitly acknowledging him as his brother-in-law, he might as well play his role perfectly. If he became the stepping stone to Cheng Che’s return to the Yin family, then the matter between him and Yin Jia would be even more secure.

Ye Cheng turned to say to Old Master Yin, “Grandpa, I’ve also heard some things about Cheng Che from Yin Jia. It’s only normal for Cheng Che to have a knot in his heart. Although he’s very outstanding and good at running businesses, he’s very pure and kind. I hope you’ll give him some time to deal with this matter.”

Cheng Che said coldly, “Pure and kind? Ye Cheng, these words are usually used to describe young ladies.”

Ye Cheng smiled. “My vocabulary isn’t good so these words are all I could come up with. In any case, Grandpa understood my meaning.”

Cheng Che glared at Ye Cheng.

Old Master Yin was appeased by Ye Cheng’s words. He said, “For Ye Cheng’s sake, I’ll give you some time. It’s fine if you can’t figure things out so quickly. Wait for me to visit Old Madam Mu.”

Cheng Che said, slightly anxious, “This matter is between me and the Yin family. There’s no need to involve the Mu family.”

Old Master Yin could not help but frown when he saw how protective Cheng Che was of the Mu family. However, he remained calm and said, “I should go and thank the Mu family.”

Cheng Che was about to say something when Ye Cheng interjected, “Alright. Cheng Che, what’s wrong with you? Grandpa only wants to visit Old Madam Mu. You only have to convey this to Old Madam Mu. This is a matter between the elders. As a junior, you don’t have to interfere.”

Cheng Che glared at Ye Cheng and said, “You really have two faces to please everyone.”

Ye Cheng smiled as he said, “You stinky brat, how can you say such a thing? Aren’t I saying this for your good?”

Ye Cheng acted like an older brother, pleasing Old Master Yin, Yin Bin, and Yin Jia.

Cheng Che wanted to say something but decided against it in the end.

Old Master Yin was even more delighted when he saw Cheng Che seemingly give in to Ye Cheng.

On the contrary, Old Madam Yin was quite unhappy when she saw the good relationship between the future son-in-law and eldest young master of the Yin family. This was not the result she wanted. She looked around the table, and when her eyes fell on Guan Tang, she asked affectionately, “Guan Tang, are you used to living on your own? For the sake of our eldest young master, you even had to move out. How pitiful.”
