Chapter 541 – Visiting My In-laws
*************
CHAPTER 540
The second Lin Zian and Lin Huilang stepped foot into the compound they were greeted by the magnificence of the building, followed by the lovely decoration of the plants, garden and everything.
For a short while, Lin Zian stood transfixed on the spot. His mind was dazed by how well and beautiful it was.
"Hey brother-in-law," Lin Huilang called out.
"Yes?"
"You are staring. I think your granddaughter and grandson-in-law are waiting."
"Ah! Yes. My apologies, please lead the way."
In no time both of them found their way inside the house and were greeted by the maids present. For Lin Zian, he loved every bit of courtesy they showed.
Not only was it heartwarming but entertaining as well. At least to him.
"Ah! Grandfather!" Li Jing exclaimed and moved in his direction with both hands wide open for a hug.
"My Jing baby, come to grandpa," the elderly Lin Zian exclaimed as well as increasing his pace so he could meet her and oh what a hug when their bodies met.
The smile on either of their faces told a different story for both of them.
It was like they were meeting for the first time after a long while of not seeing each other.
'Good day sir," Ye Cheng greeted from where he stood.
Hearing his voice, Li Jing was reminded that they were not alone anymore and she had to pull away from the hug to allow her grandfather to greet the most important people in the room.
"Grandfather," she called out, moving to his side with one of his hands still snaked around her petite waist. "This is Ye Cheng, my husband."
"Hello, sir." He extended his hand towards, Lin Zian for a shake but surprisingly, rather than that, eth old man held his arm and pulled him towards him as she hugged him close.
"We are not strangers nor business associates but actually family now," Lin Zain stated, patting Ye Cheng tenderly on the back. "Call me grandfather or gramps, like how your wife does."
"Welcome home, grandfather," he said, adjusting quickly to the word.
"That'smore like it." He pulled away for the hug and patted his shoulders happily with a proud smile on his face. "You look good."
After that his gaze wandered off and went straight to Mrs Li who stood idly at her corner, watching the whole scene unfold before her.
"And who do we have here? The lovely lady who brought this brilliant and handsome young man to this world, Ye Cheng's mother I suppose?"
"Yes, grandfather. This is your one and only in-law, my mother-in-law, Mrs Li An."
"Miss, darling," she corrected Li Jing but it never took from her smile as she walked over to where they were. "Good day sir. Nice to meet you."
"The pleasure is all mine," he took her hand and placed a gentle kiss on it. "I am more than glad to be here. With me is," he turned, gesturing towards Lin Huilang.
"You may have already met or you all know her but I believe a proper introduction would do well to follow. My in-law turned a lovely sister if I do say so myself, Mrs Lin Huilang."
"Lin?" Li An's brows raised up at him.
"Yes, I told you, she is a sister-in-law now turned a sister. She chooses to bear our family name. Well, we always change our names for the ladies married into our family. Grandfather always loved it so, it is like a normal trend. But then again, if she refuses, it is her choice to make."
"I see,' Li An nodded in understanding.
"Nice to officially or non officially as the case and occasion calls for, meet you, Li An."
"Hahaha I like your sense of humour, Lin Huilang, welcome. Thank you for gracing us with your presence."
"Thank you very much," both ladies smiled as they exchanged hand shakes and a light hug.
"It is nice to meet you one on one," Li An continued. "I love your fashion trend. Even though I may not have been in the country for many years, several important news do not seem to pass me by and when they mention the fashion world, it ain't complete until yours is inclusive."
"Thanks. It is truly an honour."
"Now, that we have all been introduced, let us please head to the living room. I believe the main course of the event is ready."
She arched her brows playfully at them all, before clasping both hands together in front o her chest. "Ready?"
"Why not? I wouldn't waste an opportunity to taste my granddaughter's meal any time and any day."
"I am glad you love to, gramps. So let's move in. I would do a quick check on them and then we move over to eat. In the meantime, your order as to what drinks you want would be taken so we can talk over something."
"Isn't my Li Jing now the perfect planner?" Lin Huilang teased.
Together everyone walked over to the living room following the leading of Ye Cheng and Li Jing who somehow had gotten close to each other and had their hands wrapped on each other's waists as they lead the train.
Once seated, Li Jing excused herself first and went to check on the maids in the kitchen.
It was time to serve and she had not gotten the time to check on them ever since she left.
A worry she had to facepalm herself for once she left the questioning gaze of her grandfather and husband.
This was her who was sceptical about things before but totally forgot after she had her one on one session with her husband.
Walking briskly to the kitchen, she was happy to see that the girls had done such nice work. There wasn't a doubt anyways so one would wonder why she was like that prior.
"Thank you all so very much for what you have done. Please let us proceed to serve everyone, thank you."
"Yes ma'am," they nodded and got to work.
