After delivering food, Ye Chen is gifted a "Magical Space" by the system as a reward. He tests it by storing freshly bought vegetables. Later, Su Wanyi asks Ye Chen to pick her up, but wants to discuss something privately. She cautiously suggests they use more casual forms of address during her grandfather's birthday banquet, fearing it might upset him as he is unaware of their relationship.

"Honey, I’m mainly afraid that Grandpa will push us to have a great-grandchild once he knows about our relationship. You know I’m not ready for a kid yet, so I hope you understand." Su Wanyi said, biting her lip.

"It’s fine, it’s not a big deal. I get it, don’t worry." Ye Chen replied.

Upon hearing Ye Chen say this, Su Wanyi smiled and asked, "Honey, you’re not mad anymore?"

"I was just teasing you; I wasn’t actually mad at you." Ye Chen said, stroking Su Wanyi’s hair.

"That’s good; I was starting to worry." Su Wanyi sighed in relief.

"Silly girl." Ye Chen said with a smile as he playfully tapped Su Wanyi’s nose.

He felt that the woman in front of him had truly changed a lot. Perhaps this was the power of love.

"Alright, let’s hurry up and go. You don’t want to be late for Grandpa’s birthday banquet and upset the old man." Ye Chen reminded her as he stood up from the sofa.

"Let’s hurry," Su Wanyi stood up as well.

She glanced at Ye Chen as he headed for the door and frowned, asking, "Honey, why does it seem like your outfit is much looser than the one I saw earlier?"

"Really? But I’m wearing the one I just showed you." Ye Chen replied.

"It really doesn’t look the same as before." Su Wanyi muttered to herself.

However, Ye Chen paid no attention and kept walking ahead.

He knew if he responded, Su Wanyi would definitely start digging for details.

If that happened, Ye Chen would have to explain everything that happened earlier, which might lead to misunderstandings with Su Wanyi.

Since it was nothing serious, he decided not to stir up trouble for himself.

Two people left the company and went to the parking lot to get into the car.

"Wanyi, where are we going?" Ye Chen asked.

Su Wanyi didn’t react immediately, almost as if Ye Chen hadn’t spoken to her.

Su Wanyi couldn’t be blamed for this, as they hadn’t called each other like this in a long time.

Ye Chen looked at Su Wanyi’s somewhat helpless expression, thinking that if they continued like this, Elder Su might think Su Wanyi had found someone last minute to pretend as her boyfriend.

"Wanyi, where are we going?" Ye Chen repeated.

At that moment, Su Wanyi seemed to come to her senses and said with slight embarrassment, "Honey, oh no, Ye Chen, we’re going to Crown Pearl Hotel."

Such a sudden change in how they addressed each other was a bit hard to adjust to, but they had no choice and just had to focus during the birthday banquet.

Ye Chen followed Su Wanyi’s instructions to open the navigation and headed toward the destination.

"Wanyi, have you prepared a birthday gift for Grandpa’s birthday banquet?" Ye Chen asked, as if he just remembered.

"It’s all taken care of. I gifted him a longevity painting, and I think he’s enjoying it now." Su Wanyi said with a smile.

"Oh, that’s good. By the way, I haven’t gotten anything for Grandpa yet. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to go empty-handed?" Ye Chen asked, looking at Su Wanyi.

"No need, that longevity painting is from both of us, and Grandpa doesn’t really care about these things. You being there is enough." Su Wanyi said, waving her hand.

Ye Chen still felt a bit uncomfortable with going to a birthday banquet empty-handed, but since Su Wanyi had said so, he didn’t say anything further.

"Alright, I’ll go along with what you say. The wife is always right." Ye Chen said with a smile.

After discussing the gift, Ye Chen continued to focus on driving toward the Crown Pearl Hotel.

It was Su Wanyi who had arranged everything with Elder Su, but she was so busy that she forgot until Father Su reminded her.

Otherwise, things would have been interesting today, knowing that Master Su was especially fond of this granddaughter.

After driving for a while, a palace-like building appeared in front of them.

No wonder it is one of the top hotels in Modu; just looking at the exterior exudes luxury.

Luxury hotels like this usually have attendants to park guests’ cars. Ye Chen stopped in front of an attendant, got out of the car, and tossed the key to the attendant.

At this point, Su Wanyi also got out of the car, and the two walked into the hotel.

This upscale hotel’s decoration is not only like a palace from the outside but even more so inside. It’s resplendent, with notable jade ornaments inside.

Every corner of the hotel reveals its grandeur.

With Su Wanyi leading the way, Ye Chen headed toward the banquet hall, arriving just in time.

Inside the banquet hall, many guests had already arrived, their laughter filling the air.

Of course, these guests were among the top in Modu; anyone attending Master Su’s birthday banquet wouldn’t be ordinary.

Su Wanyi held Ye Chen’s arm and walked inside.

Today, she had only applied a little makeup, yet she still looked radiant.

Among the female guests present, she outshone them all, drawing envious and jealous glances.

People looked at the man and woman who just walked in and started discussing, mainly because Ye Chen and Su Wanyi seemed like a perfect match.

Ye Chen was handsome and charming; Su Wanyi was beautiful and elegant.

Their arrival added a beautiful touch to the banquet hall.

Everyone’s gaze was deeply attracted to Ye Chen and Su Wanyi.

People were all whispering among themselves.

"Who’s this young man? I’ve never seen him before."

"Probably a young master from some family."

"That girl is really gorgeous, she’s stunning beyond words."

"Look, they really make a perfect couple."

Though Ye Chen and Su Wanyi overheard these comments, they didn’t care. They’ve heard such compliments too often.

Amid the sounds of admiration, the two walked forward, arriving in front of Master Su.

While everyone was speculating about which family’s young master and young lady these two might be, Su Wanyi stepped forward and said to Master Su, "Grandpa, your granddaughter wishes you a long life and happiness as vast as the East Sea and as enduring as the Southern Mountains."

"Good, good, my dear granddaughter is truly filial. Grandpa really loves the longevity painting you gifted." Master Su said with a smile, unable to close his mouth.

"Grandpa, as long as you like it." Su Wanyi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this conversation between Su Wanyi and Master Su, everyone suddenly realized.

"Oh, so that girl is Master Su’s granddaughter, no wonder she has such outstanding presence."

"Yes, it’s the first time seeing her. I heard she’s rarely seen at such gatherings."

"But who is that guy?"

People raised questions again, thinking that if they had encountered someone like Ye Chen, they should remember him, yet no one had an impression of Ye Chen.
