"Nana, come out with me for a moment." A girl near the door smiled awkwardly at Ye Qiu and then pulled Tan Nana outside.
"What’s up?" Tan Nana asked, puzzled.
"You still ask me what’s up?" the girl said urgently, "I’m wondering what you’re up to! You actually went after Ye Qiu, are you crazy!"
Tan Nana was confused, "Is there a problem with us being together?"
"No problem? I’m asking you, did you do it on purpose?"
"What on purpose? Oh, come on, what are you trying to say?"
"I’m asking if you intentionally seduced Ye Qiu to marry him as revenge against Ye Yanting, causing chaos within the Ye Family. Nana, listen to me, it’s not worth it," the girl urged anxiously.
"Where is your mind going? Am I that kind of person?" Tan Nana said with a helpless smile.
But her friend nodded seriously: "You are."
Tan Nana shook her head, "I really don’t. I genuinely like Ye Qiu, and he likes me. I don’t have any revenge intentions."
"Really?"
"Truer than true gold, how could Ye Yanting, that scumbag, be worth sacrificing my lifelong happiness for revenge?"
"That’s good, but isn’t it awkward between you all? After all, the four of you are in such a situation."
Tan Nana shrugged, "We’re the victims, okay? They should be the ones feeling awkward."
"I suppose you’re right. Since the emotion between the two of you is pure, I’m relieved."
"You’re relieved about that? Didn’t you guys say you wanted to properly evaluate my boyfriend?"
"Others need evaluation, but Ye Qiu doesn’t."
"Why not?"
"Why not? Don’t you know your boyfriend is exceptional? Since Gu Wanqin backed out of the engagement, countless business executives want to set their daughters up with him. He’s the favored future son-in-law among the elders. Now that you’ve got him, you should feel lucky!"
Tan Nana giggled, feeling she had landed a great catch. He was the universally acknowledged top son-in-law choice, even her friends said so. She believed her parents would be satisfied too.
After entering the room, this friend nodded at the other girls, and the atmosphere instantly became lively. The key point was that Ye Qiu communicated well, always being appropriate, making even the initially worried girls feel a bit envious. Ye Qiu was indeed too excellent; who didn’t know he secured several big deals in just a year? How many young people could be as successful as him?
Plus, he was handsome, and throughout the meal, he was very considerate towards Tan Nana. The attentiveness was genuine, indicating his true feelings for Tan Nana. Moreover, with them as friends, he was caring yet maintained a proper distance, making him the type of man who particularly reassured people.
After the meal, Ye Qiu went to settle the bill, and the girls were laughing and teasing Tan Nana: "We’re so envious, how did you manage to catch such a good man?"
Tan Nana smiled proudly, "The nearby water tower gets the moon first, who suggested we be neighbors? There’s more for you to envy; on normal days, when we eat together, it’s his cooking, and his skills are much better than a restaurant’s."
"Really? You’re not bragging?"
"Have I ever bragged?"
"That’s true. If what you say is real, he really is an excellent man, such men are almost extinct now!"
"Here’s the question, what was Gu Wanqin thinking before? Leaving such a good fiancé to go and seduce his brother?"
Tan Nana pouted, "Who knows what’s on her mind? But luckily she let go, otherwise how would I discover Ye Qiu’s goodness?"
"You’re just loving it!"
"But have you thought about how to tell your parents? After all, what happened before became public knowledge. If you truly decide to marry Ye Qiu in the future, you’ll become family with Ye Yanting and Gu Wanqin, isn’t that awkward?"
"We won’t live together; at most, we’ll return for the holidays for a meal," Tan Nana dismissively waved her hand, "Though how to tell my parents is still undecided."
While Tan Nana was contemplating how to broach the topic, unexpectedly, a surprise visit from the Tan Family parents directly exposed her relationship with Ye Qiu.
Since the daughter hadn’t returned home for a while, the Tan Family parents made a detour to visit, and upon their arrival, they saw their daughter coming out of the adjacent house, with a man’s voice heard from inside: "Nana, yesterday I put some fruits in your fridge, grab them and I’ll cut them for you."
"Okay!" Tan Nana joyfully returned to the house, then saw the astonished face of her parents.
"What brings you here?" she quietly asked.
"Why shouldn’t we be here? What’s going on here? A boyfriend?" Mrs. Tan pressed.
"Uh-huh," Tan Nana realized she couldn’t brush off the situation, so she admitted it.
"Who is it?"
"Someone you know."
"Nana? Haven’t you got it yet?" Inside, seeing she hadn’t returned, Ye Qiu came out to check, and upon seeing the three members of the family, he instantly understood the situation.
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt," he quickly adjusted his expression and greeted them, "Come inside, have you eaten yet? I just made a few dishes, let’s eat together."
Seeing him and their daughter wearing matching home clothes, the couple couldn’t misunderstand the scenario—they were not against their daughter dating; they hadn’t expected her partner to be Ye Qiu. What does this mean? After breaking up with his brother, she’s dating the elder?
"Let’s talk inside, let’s talk inside," Tan Nana nudged her parents inside, "You just finished the meeting, right? You must be hungry now, so eat with us; Ye Qiu’s food is really delicious."
Ye Qiu also nodded, "It might not be enough; I’ll go make a couple more dishes. Uncle and Aunt, please sit down first."
After he entered the kitchen, Tan Family parents scrutinized their daughter, "What’s really going on between you two?"
Tan Nana whispered, "It’s exactly as you saw, we’re in a relationship."
"You two are being ridiculous," Mr. Tan said angrily.
"We aren’t being ridiculous; we genuinely like each other and have thought it through seriously. I originally planned for you to meet him in the coming days, just didn’t expect you’d suddenly show up here."
"But what about what happened before... and his brother, doesn’t this make us a laughing stock?"
"Laugh about what? Isn’t Ye Qiu exceptional? He’s now highly sought after as a son-in-law; it’s your clever daughter here who snagged him early."
"I admit he’s excellent, but what if you two want to get married in the future; wouldn’t you and Ye Yanting become family, isn’t that awkward?"
"As long as we don’t live together, it’s them who’ll feel awkward, not Ye Qiu and me."
"Are you two serious about this?"
"Of course, I think I’ve found the person for life."
Seeing their daughter with such a lovestruck expression, the Tan Family parents felt a bit helpless. They had never seen her so joyful, not even when she was adamant about marrying Ye Yanting before. Clearly, she was genuinely in love.
