Chapter 566: Seizing the Chance to Poach Talent
"Thank you, grandpas, for your help!"
Chi Youyou, along with her parents, had dinner with Mr. Shen and Mr. Rong at Guan Gui, finalized the guest list, and prepared to invite everyone five days later.
Making a grand entrance is nice, but keeping people in suspense first is also quite a good idea.
"There’s really nothing to thank us for, it’s just a simple matter."
"Exactly. Youyou, have you visited Mr. Song yet?"
Mr. Rong suddenly remembered something and asked.
Chi Youyou shook her head, "We’re planning to go tomorrow. We just discussed and confirmed the time with Aunt Song, and it so happens tomorrow is Old Madam Song’s birthday."
"Alright, Old Man Song isn’t feeling well these days, seems to have caught a cold. If it weren’t for that, he would have joined us today!"
Mr. Rong clicked his tongue. Old Man Song knew they were having dinner with Chi Youyou’s family, and he’s been sourly emphasizing in the group chat that Youbao is his family’s granddaughter-in-law.
"Xiao Sheng, Dayi, does Youbao have a boyfriend yet?"
His eyes suddenly shifted mischievously and turned to Cheng Ruosheng and Chi Dayi, asking with a smile.
Cheng Ruosheng and Chi Dayi were both taken aback, exchanging a glance.
"Youbao has a marriage contract with Shiyu."
Cheng Ruosheng didn’t come up with another excuse and straightforwardly stated.
Such marriage contracts are quite common among these wealthy families.
"The marriage contract is set by you all, but ultimately it still depends on the kids themselves, right, Youbao?"
Chi Youyou: ...
As soon as she heard the word ’boyfriend,’ alarm bells went off in her mind. She really couldn’t escape it.
She had no choice but to put on an awkward smile. What should she say?
After the trip to Phoenix Mountain, Song Shiyu started to change in her mind. During their time in M Country, their relationship seemed to have developed further, and she even felt it wouldn’t be bad if they were together.
But Song Shiyu doesn’t care for her, she still remembers the scene when he wanted to sign a contract with her.
Hmm...
Although a forcibly twisted melon isn’t sweet, you never know if you don’t try it.
Thinking of this, two little figurines started fighting in her mind.
"That kid from the Song family is good, he gets along well with my eldest grandson. However, he’s always so busy, my eldest grandson hardly sees him throughout the year. He doesn’t seem very family-oriented, unlike my eldest grandson, who’s also busy but always manages to make time to come home..."
"Old Rong, have some dignity!"
As soon as Mr. Rong said that, Mr. Shen knew!
Everyone knows how exceptional Youbao is, but he has the self-awareness to know his eldest grandson isn’t suited for someone like Youbao.
Rong Junyan, well, he’s just so-so.
Talking about suitability, he thinks Song Shiyu fits quite well.
He’s definitely not deliberately picking on Elder Rong, but he’s reached this conclusion after thorough consideration!
"At such times, you just have to lose some face, Youbao is so outstanding!"
Mr. Rong rolled his eyes at him and then smiled broadly, saying, "There’s no rush with this matter, since you’re back now, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet. There are quite a few outstanding men in Imperial City, Youbao can look around!"
Cheng Ruosheng and Chi Dayi could only smile politely in response.
"Mom and Dad, I’m heading out first~"
After dinner, she and her parents went their separate ways, they went to meet her uncle while she headed to school to complete her final registration.
Chu Beining and Ji Changqing arrived a few days earlier than her and knew that she would be back to register in the afternoon. Chu Beining and Ji Changqing waited for her at the student union.
