“How about Ye Zhe, since he is only two years older than Kexin. They would match in terms of age.” That elderly woman smiled once more at Yang Kexin. Now that she had was older in age, all she wished was for her grandchildren to be happily wed.
Ye Helian looked at her daughter and caught a flash of disappointment in her daughter’s eyes. Since she was her mother, she obviously knew what her daughter wanted.
“Grandma, I wish to marry my eldest cousin!” Yang Kexin said without any hesitation, her heart racing. She saw her eldest cousin a few years ago and it was love at first sight but her mother had always disapproved since her mother felt that either Ye Yi or Ye Zhe would inherit the Ye Group. Yet, her eldest cousin was now running the company, which made her even more determined to marry him.
“Ah...”
The elderly woman froze. She hadn’t expected this young lady to want to marry her eldest grandson.
Ye Helian took her mother’s hand in hers and said, “Mum, my eldest nephew is now 30 years old this year and he’s still not married. Although Kexin is not my flesh and blood, I’ve always raised her to meet the highest standards. Furthermore, she is extremely hardworking and driven, so she managed to get into a famous university. She is doing well at school and is studying business management. She would stand out even if you hold her up in comparison to all the other prominent young ladies in Ye City. She would become a strong support for my eldest nephew in the future.”
The elderly woman was moved by Ye Helian’s words. Although she never mentioned it, she had always pined for her eldest grandchild who never grew up within the Ye family, so she hoped that he would marry someone good, and start a family soon.
Luxury cars drove into Pear Garden one after another and those who got off the car were all dressed very well. It was obvious from the first glance that they were all wealthy people.
Everyone and every couple would bring an exquisite gift box into the main courtyard to personally deliver their new year greetings to that elderly woman and present their red packets or gifts to her.
“Good, all of you are good kids!” The elderly woman smiled as she accepted the red packets and gifts from the younger generation. She collected these gifts until she didn’t even remember how many there were. In fact, there were many grandnephews whose names she could not recall.
Soon, a gorgeous couple appeared. The woman’s figure was extremely good. She was 175 CM with fair skin and beautiful eyes. She was dressed in a snowy white fur coat with a bright red scarf wrapped around her neck. Her long, black leather boots extended past her knees and enhanced her long legs. She smiled elegantly but the man beside her looked very cold, like an icy statue, exuding a cold and dark aura.
“Grandma, happy new year!” Dai Manni shook the elderly woman’s hand with a bright smile on her face. She reached out to take a gift box from Ye Yi and inside was a string of Buddhist prayer beads made from Dzi. The elderly woman liked to pray to Buddha so they especially selected this gift to suit her taste.
The elderly woman was overjoyed.
“Good, good good!” She repeated the word three times. Then, as though she suddenly thought of something, she looked at Dai Manni’s stomach.
“Manni, when are you going to give me a great-grandchild? That would be the best new year present for me.”
She didn’t lack anything but what she really wanted was to hold her great-grandchild.
The beautiful smile on Dai Manni’s face froze as she turned to look at Ye Yi. She saw that Ye Yi’s face had darkened as though someone had gone overboard. He looked extremely unhappy.
He Xiyan linked her hands through Ye Hao’s and walked very slowly. She didn’t wear high-heels because of her pregnancy but wore ankle-length boots with a heel height of 3 CM. When she walked next to Ye Hao, there was an huge height difference. She was not that short at 162 CM but the man next to her was 190 CM tall, so together, they looked like a brother bringing his younger sister out.
He Xiyan’s grip tightened on his arm when she looked at the main courtyard up ahead. She froze in her face when she saw the scene ahead.
