The black Rolls-Royce slowly entered the estate.

Grandpa An, who had initially planned to change his clothes, had to abandon the idea. With the assistance of Nan Yan and Qin Shiyu, Old Madam Qin got out of the car.

Then Old Madam Qin, with an air of indifference, pushed aside Qin Shiyu’s hand and allowed only Nan Yan to support her.

Qin Shiyu:

Who was the real granddaughter of Old Madam Qin in the end?

This favoritism was a bit too blatant!

Moreover, Nan Yan had not even married her elder brother yet!

However, Qin Shiyu dared only to grumble about it silently in her heart. She didn’t dare to show any dissatisfaction on the surface.

Grandpa An, with a beaming smile, watched as the group approached and greeted Old Madam Qin in an official tone.

“Mrs. Qin, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Yanyan used to mention you to me often, and now I finally get to meet you in person.”

“Is that so?” Old Madam Qin hurried forward, shook Grandpa An’s hand, and asked with a smile, “What did Yanyan say about me?”

Grandpa An chuckled and said, “She said you were kind and treated her very well. Being with you made her feel close!”

Nan Yan:

She couldn’t recall ever saying that.

Of course, she had indeed mentioned Old Madam Qin to Grandpa An at the beginning. When Qin Lu first came to the old mansion, Grandpa An had strong objections due to family reasons. It was only later when he learned that Old

Madam Qin liked her, and the family didn’t object, that he stopped opposing Qin Lu’s approach.

Two elderly people with a combined age of about 150 or 160 years exchanged compliments for a while before heading to the living room.

Then, they entered into a mode of mutual praise regarding their respective family’s children.

Grandpa An praised Qin Lu, and Old Madam Qin praised Nan Yan.

Their flowery words left the two individuals involved with completely expressionless faces.

It was quite awkward.

Although both of them were indeed exceptional, being praised like this made them feel uncomfortable.

“Brother An, you look so spirited in this outfit; one can’t tell your age at all.”

“Hehe, Sister Qin has maintained yourself so well; you look like you’re in your early fifties, not showing your age at all.”

The two elderly people continued to exchange compliments about each other’s appearance.

No matter how old you are, being praised for looking younger than your actual age is always a delightful experience.

“Sister Qin, how long do you plan to stay in Jin city? Why don’t you stay at the old mansion? It’s livelier with more people, and it’s better than staying in a hotel, isn’t it?”

“Well… Wouldn’t that be too much trouble, Brother An?”

Old Madam Qin seemed tempted, her eyes darting towards Qin Lu, as if she were considering staying.

“Of course, it’s not troublesome at all, not at all! Staying here is convenient, and it will also allow Yanyan to spend more time with you.”

Grandpa An quickly instructed Tian Yi to have the servants prepare a room for her.

Nan Yan and Qin Lu exchanged a glance, realizing that they had no say in the arrangements made by the two elderly people.

So they simply went along with it.

In the end, even Qin Shiyu had to stay tonight.

Qin Lu:

Was he the only one without privileges?

After arranging accommodations for Old Madam Qin and Qin Shiyu, the kitchen was notified that dinner could be served.

Jiang Nai happened to have finished her homework and came downstairs. Qin Shiyu found her cute and was captivated by her, so they became friends immediately.

“Hey, why are there so many people today? Did I come at the wrong time?” Shen Junqing had also come to join the meal…

Nan Yan couldn’t help but sigh when she saw the group of people in the living room.

Well, everyone was here, so it was lively.

“Shen from the Shen family, there’s never a wrong time. In any case, there’s plenty of food in the kitchen, so adding a pair of chopsticks is no big deal.” Grandpa An had a very favorable impression of Shen Junqing. After all, Shen Junqing had helped his team, and he was known for being good at charming people, despite his reputation as a playboy.

After greeting Grandpa An, Shen Junqing casually approached Nan Yan, leaned against the wall beside her with his charming peach blossom eyes that seemed unaware of their allure, and wore a somewhat pitiful expression. “Yanyan, have you been neglecting Third Brother recently? Did he do something to upset you?”

“Not at all.” Nan Yan looked at him helplessly. “I’ve just been quite busy lately, so I haven’t had much time.”

During this period, Shen Junqing had invited her several times, either to go watch a car race or to visit a casino. She was genuinely busy, with various time-consuming tasks that made her less free than before.

Another reason was that Qin Lu was keeping an eye on her…

He secured his position firmly even before taking the lead…

Shen Junqing didn’t believe that she couldn’t spare any time because of her busy schedule. He gave a sly glance at Qin Lu and sneered, “Is that bastard not allowing you to get too close to me?”

Nan Yan rubbed her temples, thinking it would be better if he didn’t see through her.

“I have been quite busy lately, Third Brother. Just give me some time.”

“Alright, Third Brother won’t make things difficult for you.” Shen Junqing reached out to ruffle her hair. “If that bastard bullies you, just tell Third Brother, and I’ll teach him a lesson.”

Old Madam Qin observed the interaction between Shen Junqing and Nan Yan and nudged Qin Lu’s arm with her elbow.

“Ah Lu, who is that guy?” Old Madam Qin’s tone was filled with a sense of urgency.

After all, judging solely from appearances, Shen Junqing was not inferior to Qin Lu in terms of looks and demeanor. Furthermore, Nan Yan seemed very close to him.

This left Old Madam Qin feeling anxious. Her eldest grandson had been pursuing Nan Yan for so long without success, and now another man had appeared, openly coming to visit. Moreover, Grandpa An had a good impression of him. She couldn’t help but imagine various scenarios.

“That’s Yanyan’s friend, Third Brother…” Qin Lu paused for a moment and added, “He’s a good person.”

“Does he like Yanyan?”

Although it was framed as a question, the tone suggested that it was a statement of fact.

Old Madam Qin had keen insight, and no matter how well Shen Junqing concealed his feelings, he couldn’t escape her scrutiny.

“I think so.” Qin Lu replied calmly.

As a man, he could naturally see that Shen Junging had feelings for Nan Yan.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have constantly discouraged Nan Yan from getting too

close to him.

“You think so?” Old Madam Qin’s tone suddenly became colder and more piercing. “Aren’t you afraid that Yanyan will be snatched away by someone?”

She had a stern expression as she coldly stated, “Let me tell you, if you can’t win over Yanyan, then there’s no need for you to come back.”

Qin Lu raised his hand and lightly pressed on her shoulder, whispering slowly and firmly, “She can only be your daughter-in-law.”

He was absolutely determined not to let anyone take Nan Yan away from him. The woman he had set his sights on, anyone who dared to touch her would meet a terrible fate.

A trace of hostility flickered in Qin Lu’s eyes.

But it quickly faded away.

As for Shen Junqing, Qin Lu knew that he wouldn’t do anything to harm Nan Yan or put her in a difficult position.

He couldn’t even be considered as his competitor at all….
