Old Mrs. Shen knew that Ye Qianqian’s parents had been divorced for a long time and that she didn’t have a good relationship with her mother. That was the reason she spoke so openly about her.

After saying that, she leaned over conspiratorially and whispered, “I’ll tell you something. Most people don’t like women with such looks. They prefer a round face like yours. It looks good and carries good fortune.”

Ye Qianqian smiled. Her face slightly reddened.

“Grandma, this is a tonic that Qianqian brought for you. You can tell that it has been aged for a long time. Take a look at it.” Shen Zhilie took out the old ginseng. “Look how thoughtful my future wife is,” he remarked.

Old Mrs. Shen was pleased when she saw it. She patted Ye Qianqian’s hand and said, “Oh my! Your presence alone is more than enough! You didn’t have to bring a gift! You’re so courteous!”

The old lady still couldn’t resist stealing a few more glances at the ginseng. She took it and smelled it. Her eyes lit up. “This is good stuff! It’s really hard to obtain! It’s not something that can just be bought!” she exclaimed.

“It was curated by my father and aged for a long time. I was told that the medicinal properties are well-preserved, so I brought it for you.”

“I knew it! Such an exceptional grade of ginseng has to be a collector’s item, and it is!”

“Of course! We chose the best one for you.” Shen Zhilie replaced the cover with a look of pride on his face. “Qianqian put a lot of thought into the gifts she brought with her. There are tonics and liquor, and she also brought gifts especially for Dad and Mom.”

Old Mrs. Shen grew even more approving. She nodded her head and commented, “How thoughtful! Oh yes, Qianqian, I heard that you draw for a living.”

“No, Grandma, I just keep an eye on the people who draw. For example…”

Ye Qianqian had been a little nervous when she had started talking. As the conversation continued, her speech became smoother and more natural.

Toward the end, she was laughing jovially with the old lady. They had become fast friends.

Shen Zhilie had been worried that Ye Qianqian would feel out of place. Evidently, he had thought too much.

Old Mrs. Shen was a superstitious lady. After chatting with Ye Qianqian for a while, she pulled her into her room, announcing that she had something private to say to her.

Shen Zhilie wasn’t about to stop her. He simply looked on as his woman was dragged off by his grandmother.

Because they knew there would be a guest at home, Shen Longyue and his wife returned home early.

As soon as they entered, Nanny He started preparing dinner.

Mrs. Shen was eager to meet Ye Qianqian and asked, “Where is she?”

“They’re in Grandma’s room. Grandma dragged her off.”

Mrs. Shen couldn’t help but laugh. She said, “Alright, I’ll go in and take a look. I’ll make sure everything’s fine.”

“That won’t be necessary. I’ve already proposed to her. When we’re ready, we’ll get our marriage registered.”

Upon hearing Shen Zhilie’s words, Mrs. Shen felt a sense of reassurance. She smiled gently and quickly walked in.

Shen Longyue, on the other hand, came forward and grabbed his son by his shoulders. Smiling cheerfully, he said, “Well done. You accomplished something so major without even a word.”

“Of course, I treat marriage seriously. Once I made up my mind, I had to act on it.”

“No second thoughts?”

“Pfft. Not at all. Where else am I going to find such an awesome lady?”

Shen Longyue guffawed and responded, “I have to see for myself what this girl is like. The fact that she’s able to captivate my son to such an extent…”

Shen Zhilie smiled proudly. “You will like her.”

Inside the old lady’s room, Old Mrs. Shen was reading Ye Qianqian’s palms. With her brows furrowed she said, “My dear Qianqian, have you hurt your hand before? The reading doesn’t look right.”
