Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

Chapter 231 Identity

When Old lady Fang and Jian Cuifen arrived at their table, they immediately introduced Zhang Liling to the rest of their family members.

Gesturing toward Her grandson, the old lady happily introduced Zhang Liling with a smile that reached her eyes.

"This is Wenwen's girlfriend, Zhang Liling."

Immediately, Zhang Liling bowed and greeted the people that had their curious gazes on her as the corners of her lips only moved slightly.

She didn't dare to smile so cheerfully as she had done with the old lady and her daughter-in-law, or she would be seen as an ordinary woman trying to fawn over them.

Old Mr. Fang smiled at Zhang Liling immediately he saw her and gestured for her to sit before shifting his gaze to his grandson.

"Bingwen, you finally showed up with a woman by your side today."

Mr. Fang pulled out an empty chair and waited patiently till Zhang Liling had sat comfortably before pulling the one next to her to sit.

Glancing briefly at his father who had some sort of a keen gaze on the woman beside him, he faced his grandfather amidst the curious gazes from the rest of his family members.

His cousins were not sitting at the same table as the elders, and it seemed like the old lady had personally reserved this extra chairs just for him and the woman he would be coming with.

This just showed how invested she was with his matter.

"Grandfather, I know that you also did not believe me. And before I will start getting some funny questions, let me explain something." He said, glancing at his uncles before continuing.

He knew that they were impatient and couldn't wait to ask him so many questions that could easily put him off hence, he chose to explain something important to them first.

With their gazes on them, he said, "Liling and I have been dating for a year now. I didn't employ someone to pretend to be my girlfriend."

As soon as he said that, a soft chuckle escaped from his second uncle's lips.

Staring at him with eyes looking like they were about to close, he said. "Bingwen, you are funny. Who said any of us would have that kind of thoughts. We are only surprised that you finally agreed to date."

Sitting up properly, he continued as his gaze turned curious.

"Do you mind telling us what made you to change your mind in the first place?"

He apart from the others, had even almost concluded that Fang Bingwen may never settle down and be only interested with business matters.

But here he was today, with a woman whom he claimed to be his girlfriend. He was only curious to know what kind of charm that was used on him.

"I found the right person. Would that do?" He retorted before finally turning his gaze away.

Something shifted in his third uncle's eyes, and he was about to ask a question when Fang Huiqing beat him to it.

Gazing at Zhang Liling, he asked with a small smile playing at the corner of his lips as he tried to appear less strict.

"Zhang Liling, is it?"

Instinctively, Zhang Liling turned her gaze to him as her lips curled. "Yes."

Before any more words could be exchanged, Fang Bingwen hurriedly introduced her to everyone at the table.

"Liling, this is my grandfather, the head of the Fang family... This is my Father, Fang Huiqing and beside him is my second uncle, Fang... This is my third uncle..."

After introducing them, he also went ahead to introduce their wives who were equally sitting at the same table as them.

"...you already know my grandmother and mother." He said turning to glanced at the two women bound by their arms.

Again, Zhang Liling nodded respectfully to all the elders at the table, while wondering were the younger generation of the Fang family went to.

Fortunately, Jian Cuifen was there to explain things to her.

Pointing at another bigger rounder table next to them, she explained. "Bingwen's cousin's are sitting over there."

Instantly, Zhang Liling's gaze wandered off to the table next to them, and was taken aback by the young men and women staring at her with curiousity.

She hadn't expected that some people would still have their eyes on her, and some gazes were filled with malicious intent which she probably didn't know about.

Nodding calmly at them, she quickly threw her gaze away without waiting to see if they would return her greeting politely, or ignore her.

Maybe she was even scared of their response, hence, she returned her gaze back to the table she was sitting.

"Liling, which Zhang family are you from?" Old Lady Fang asked with a kind smile. She seems to very much interested in her grandson's little girlfriend.

She didn't know that this would be kind of woman Fang Bingwen would like, given his personality.

While staring intently at her, the old lady could tell that she was very active which caused her to be a little surprised, but she didn't let it show on her face.

Being asked a question, Zhang Liling stole a glance at the man beside her before clearing her throat.

Her Zhang family was a bit messy, and now that she was suddenly asked this question, she had no choice but to air her family's dirty laundry outside.

As for what their reaction would be, she would just sit and wait for it.

Since Mr. Fang wasn't helping her to speak up, that means he was not against her telling the truth and with that courage, she spoke up as the brightness in her eyes dimmed.

"I am from the Zhang Family in S City. My father is Zhang Renshu."

Immediately she revealed that, time seemed to stop as there was a look of surprise and familiarity in everyone's eyes.

Zhang Liling did not miss this opportunity to look out for their reaction.

Her mind could recall her mother's words when she was telling her about being close to the Fang family before she left for Paris.

"So this is true." Given their reactions, she thought so.
