Chapter 644: Chapter 644: The Zhan Family’s Son Comes of Age

Zhan Yunxiao had no choice but to call Xia Luo, telling her he couldn’t come over right now due to a last-minute social event he had to attend.

"It’s fine, I have things to do today too, you do your thing," Xia Luo replied.

Upon hearing she had plans, Zhan Yunxiao was worried she might go see Wen again, so he quickly said, "I’ll finish here soon, and then I’ll come to you. You can do your thing, but don’t take too long, and definitely don’t go see Wen."

Xia Luo laughed, "Are you that scared I’ll go see Wen? If you’re so worried, why not make it official sooner, bring me to meet your parents, that way we’re legit and you won’t have to fear I’ll see Wen."

Zhan Yunxiao thought to himself, I would indeed like to bring you to meet my parents sooner, but I’m not yet psychologically prepared.

"Luoluo, don’t worry, I’ll take you to meet my parents," Zhan Yunxiao promised.

Xia Luo said, "Okay, I’m waiting for you."

Hanging up the phone, Zhan Yunxiao felt a burst of sweetness in his heart.

He hurriedly drove to the hotel mentioned by his parents, where most of the guests at the banquet had already arrived.

Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue had arrived earlier.

One was chatting with business partners, while the other mingled with socialites.

Zhan Yunxiao walked over, Wu Taotao spotted him first and laughed, "Speak of the devil, here he is!"

"Auntie," Zhan Yunxiao greeted Wu Taotao.

She was his mother’s long-time best friend and they had a very close relationship, so he was quite familiar with her.

Wu Taotao looked at him and shook her head with admiration, "Getting more handsome, this face would surely be a hit in the entertainment industry."

Wu Taotao’s husband was his uncle Ye Shao, who was an undisputed film emperor in the industry.

From initially being a pretty face to later becoming a skilled performer, he had long established himself firmly in the entertainment circle.

Now, as he’s getting older, he chooses to perform only roles he likes, and he’s more willing to work behind the scenes.

He started his own entertainment company and began mentoring newcomers.

He’s suggested not infrequently that Zhan Yunxiao joins the entertainment circle.

But his father, Zhan Hanjue, would never agree, and he himself wasn’t interested in being in the limelight as an actor.

Therefore, every time Ye Shao and Wu Taotao see him, they show a hint of regret.

"Where’s Uncle?" Zhan Yunxiao asked.

Wu Taotao replied, "He’s over there chatting with your dad, hurry up and find your mom, she’s getting anxious now that you’re not here."

"Why did they call me over?" Zhan Yunxiao was puzzled.

"You’ll find out once you get there," Wu Taotao winked playfully.

Zhan Yunxiao walked over to find a group of socialites surrounding his mother, discussing animatedly.

All these years, Ye Ningwan still hasn’t mastered socializing.

If it weren’t for Mrs. Chen’s repeated invitations, she definitely wouldn’t have come.

Sure enough, there’s no peace once she’s arrived, being surrounded and questioned by chatter.

Spotting her son coming over, she immediately felt relieved and quickly waved him over.

"Now that he’s here, whatever it is, you can ask him directly."

"Mom," Zhan Yunxiao frowned.

Ye Ningwan lowered her voice, "Dear son, you caused this trouble, don’t let me suffer, handle it yourself."

Zhan Yunxiao watched his mother leave with a stern look, as he was surrounded by this group of ladies.

Really, they simply wanted to know what kind of daughter he fancied and wanted to introduce their daughters to him.

The socialites had also come along with their parents, and hearing Zhan Yunxiao was here, they all gathered around.

Each was promoting their daughter to Zhan Yunxiao, wishing they could marry him off then and there.

"Quite scary," Ye Ningwan shook her head.

Wu Taotao nodded, "Yes, indeed scary, that’s the downside of being too handsome. Speaking of which, we used to agree on being in-laws, now it’s uncertain if Yunxiao will marry and have kids before my precious baby grows up!"

Wu Taotao and Ye Shao had also had a daughter, but she was only five, fifteen years younger than Zhan Yunxiao.

Wu Taotao didn’t mind and wasn’t bothered by the age gap.

However, Ye Ningwan felt it was a far-fetched matter.

"You could ask Xiao if he’d be willing to wait," Ye Ningwan said without hurting her friend’s feelings or wanting to sell her son.

"I think there’s a chance, look how uninterested Yunxiao is in those girls. Judging by his manner, he doesn’t seem like someone who’d casually find a girlfriend, individuals like him usually don’t settle down until after thirty, which is just right for when our precious grows up," Wu Taotao said with a laugh.

"Sorry, I already have someone I like, so thank you for your kindness, please stop asking me," Zhan Yunxiao suddenly raised his voice amidst the questioning crowd, speaking clearly.

Suddenly, the girls and ladies surrounding him were stunned, looking at him in shock.

Wu Taotao’s smile froze on her face, and hearing this, she was also stunned.

"Ningning, when did he start liking someone? Who is it?"

"How would I know? But it should be recent! I noticed he’s been in a fluctuating mood recently, most likely he’s in love," Ye Ningwan replied with a smile.

"Your son is in love and you don’t know who it is, and yet you’re laughing?" Wu Taotao was surprised.

Ye Ningwan laughed and said, "Why shouldn’t I laugh? Isn’t being in love a good thing? Look, they’re all quiet now, they won’t be questioning me anymore. Besides, why should I have to know who his girlfriend is? It’s not me dating them, why do I need to?"

Wu Taotao gave her a thumbs up, "Such a broad mind!"

Ye Ningwan shrugged.

She indeed had a broad mind.

But most importantly, she trusted her son’s judgment, since he liked them, they couldn’t be too bad.

By revealing he had a girlfriend, Zhan Yunxiao finally managed to escape the flock of women.

"Sorry, I have to go accompany my girlfriend, won’t chit-chat anymore,"

Zhan Yunxiao finally made his getaway.

Yet, Ye Ningwan thought by exposing her son’s romance, it would calm these people down.

But evidently, she underestimated their gossip curiosity.

As soon as her son left, they surrounded her again.

"Who is Zhan’s girlfriend?"

"Which family’s lady of nobility?"

"Have you agreed to this? Why did you agree?"

Ye Ningwan rolled her eyes, again feeling a headache coming on.

And as the successfully escaped Zhan Yunxiao went immediately to find Xia Luo.

When he arrived at the apartment, Xia Luo was really not there, only Xia Tian was home.

"Where’s your sister? Hopefully, not at the bar again," Zhan Yunxiao asked with a frown.

Xia Tian answered, "She didn’t go to the bar, my sister enrolled in night school to study."

"Night school? Why did she enroll in night school?" Zhan Yunxiao frowned again.

Xia Tian said, "Because my sister wants to be worthy of eldest brother, my sister said eldest brother is a very smart person. Even without a family background, he’s educated and capable, but my sister can’t do anything, she didn’t study for many years. My sister said she’s not worthy of eldest brother, so she wants to study hard to be worthy of you."
