"Ah, my daughter-in-law. Very beautiful, very beautiful." The debonair old man happily greeted her. Even though he's old, he still got that kick on women's eyes. He was like a really old version of Hongqi. Xiulan wanted to laugh.
"H-hello Master Xing. Good morning." Xiulan doesn't know what to say. She stands up from the vanity chair and went to give her respect to Xing Yong Yi, Hongqi's father.
"No no no. You should call me father." Xing Yong Yi pushed. He really wanted Hongqi to get married already so someone can call him father then granpa if they began to have children.
Xiulan's throat becomes dry. She's not sure if she should follow him but the old man is anticipating it.
Yong Yi quickly glanced at the servants and signaled them to get out of the room so he can have a private talk with his daughter-in-law.
When the servants finally left them alone, Xiulan breathe Xiulan politely said and added a little bit of energy in her tone "Good to see you, father. Finally we meet."
