When He Lou returned home, He Qi had already received the news.

He and his wife were sitting solemnly in the living room waiting for He Lou’s return.

He Lou wasn’t surprised at all by their reaction.

He walked over to the other side of the sofa, sat down, and said, "Anything you want to ask..."

He Qi and his wife both brightened up, ready to speak.

But He Lou leisurely said, "Don’t ask yet. Wait until we get home tomorrow, then I’ll explain everything."

He Qi and his spouse: "..."

The feeling of knowing there’s a secret in front of them but unable to pry it out is incredibly frustrating!

However frustrating it may be, He Qi and his wife could only hold it in, because if He Lou didn’t want to talk, no one could know.

So the next morning, He Qi and his wife got up early, packed everything, and returned to the He family’s grand mansion with He Lou.

When the three arrived home, they found the house already full of people, even the elder brother, who was always extremely busy, was unexpectedly home.

Seeing his brothers looking at him, He Zhi calmly adjusted his glasses and said, "It’s the weekend."

He Qi: "..." Ha, don’t think I don’t know that you’ve never had a weekend.

Honestly, every time He Qi saw He Zhi working busily, he felt especially grateful for choosing the path of business.

Nowadays, his enterprise is on the right track, giving him plenty of spare time to take his wife and daughter traveling around the world.

He Lou faced the piercing gaze of the entire family alone.

But he wasn’t worried at all; in fact, he felt it was great—most of the heavyweights of the He family were here, so he could clarify things all at once.

No need for someone else to suddenly riddle him with questions later.

The He family looked around, and finally, Old Master He gave a light cough and spoke: "He Lou, you called yesterday saying you’ve found your future daughter-in-law?"

He Lou nodded solemnly: "Yes, Grandfather, I have confirmed my relationship with her, and we are planning to get married."

This...

Old Master He’s heart was stirred, and he asked, "Whose family’s girl is she?"

He Lou replied, "Liu Qingshan’s granddaughter, Chong Minggang’s daughter."

Old Master He wasn’t very familiar with the business scene and turned to He Qi.

He Qi briefly explained the backgrounds of the Liu and Chong families.

Old Master He nodded: "It’s a clear family background."

By implication, he wasn’t dissatisfied with Gu Shengyin’s identity.

In truth, even if he were dissatisfied, He Lou wouldn’t listen to him.

Old Master He also asked, "Why haven’t we heard about this before?"

Logically speaking, since discussions of marriage are underway, it shouldn’t have been this tightly held given He Lou’s personality.

Upon hearing this, He Qi wanted to cover his face and laugh.

As far as he knew, his brother had only met them during this long holiday at home; how could there have been any hint before?

He Lou did not hide anything about this: "I haven’t known her for long; we only confirmed the relationship yesterday."

Old Master He: "..."

Confirmed the relationship yesterday, talking about marriage today?

Even though Old Master He knew his grandson always emphasized efficiency, this was a bit too fast.

He Lou’s parents, on the other hand, weren’t as conflicted as Old Master He—in their eyes, their son’s willingness to get married is a good thing!

Old Master He has many grandsons, but they only have one son!

They’re waiting to have grandchildren soon!
