Everyone's gaze lingered on Lin Jingshu and Ming Zhengxun, observing them discreetly.
Seeing how well-matched the couple appeared, some even thought that Elder Mr. Lin marrying his daughter off to Qiao Sheng was like sticking a fresh flower into cow dung.
"Teacher."
Ming Zhengxun walked up to the Lin family's elders and greeted them respectfully.
Elder Mr. Lin was delighted to see his accomplished protégé, and the annoyance caused by the Yian family father and daughter moments ago had somewhat dissipated.
"Zhengxun, it's really a great effort on your part to come all the way here to celebrate my birthday," Elder Mr. Lin said with a hearty laugh.
Ming Zhengxun smiled in reply, "As your pupil, I naturally had to come for your birthday celebration. I'm sorry to have troubled my Senior Sister to pick me up from the airport specially."
As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Lin Jingshu.
