Chapter 4030: Chapter 4030: Ye Lan Loves Those Connected to Her

When Qin Si got in the car, it drove away.

Ye Lan turned back to look at Guan Yan, with a look of kindness, she said, "You are Nian Nian’s friend, and being in Beijing means you are the Ye family’s friend. I’ve already arranged a hotel for you, and I’ll have Gu San take you there later. If there’s anything else you need help with, just let me know. Shall we exchange phone numbers first?"

She took out her phone to give Guan Yan her own number, without putting on airs, and was very modest and respectful.

Guan Yan, like Qiao Nian, wasn’t good at interacting with older people, especially when they were of the same gender.

She couldn’t refuse Ye Lan’s kindness, so she took out her phone and exchanged personal numbers with Ye Lan, then softly introduced herself, "Guan Yan."

Ye Lan raised her eyes in surprise, then smiled, "I know. Nian Nian has mentioned you before. You know Chen Chen’s teacher, and you all have a good relationship."

Guan Yan gave a soft sound of agreement, wanting to say something but feeling unsure about what to discuss with someone of Ye Lan’s background and status.

Ye Lan noticed her discomfort and waved the phone in her hand, "So, we’ve exchanged numbers? When you have some time, I’ll take you around Beijing to see the sights. We have many historical landmarks and unique local foods here. I grew up here, so I’m quite familiar with the area, I can find my way around every street and alley..."

"Thank you." Guan Yan saw the sincerity in Ye Lan’s expression and expressed her gratitude.

Although Ye Lan’s eyes bore the fine lines bestowed by time, her elegant and charming demeanor remained unchanged. She proactively explained her earlier actions, "I know you’re in contact with that kid Qin Si, and he’s a good boy. I also know you’re an outstanding girl. However, it’s too early for you to meet his parents, especially since he was too impulsive when he brought it up and hadn’t thought it through for you. I hope you don’t blame me, an old woman, for stepping in..."

Ye Lan had a natural fondness for the friends around Qiao Nian.

Having been educated by Old Master Ye from a young age, she actually didn’t care much about family status, or else she wouldn’t have let her only daughter marry Fu Sinian back then.

The Fu family was only a second-tier family in Rao City.

Not to mention in Beijing, the Fu family wasn’t even on the list.

When she married off her daughter, it was definitely considered marrying down.

But Ye Lan didn’t care.

What mattered to her was whether her daughter loved the person or not.

Although she didn’t care about family status, having spent many years in the Beijing circles, Ye Lan was keenly aware that others might not share her disregard.

Mrs. Qin is a wonderful person.

Her personality and ways of handling things are impeccable in every aspect.

But the Qin’s were different from their family; the Qin’s valued rules, and among those rules, matching social status was one of them.

Guan Yan is very capable.

But not everyone in the Qin’s might understand just how excellent Guan Yan is, and therefore they might view her superficially.

Ye Lan stopped Qin Si from continuing because she didn’t want Guan Yan to recklessly meet Qin Si’s parents and end up feeling wronged.

Guan Yan looked at Ye Lan earnestly, her gaze sincere, and thanked her, "I understand, thank you."

Ye Lan, being someone who understands boundaries, didn’t bring up the topic again after clarifying it, instead she said, "We’re having dinner at home tonight, why don’t you and Nian Nian come over."

Guan Yan instinctively wanted to refuse.

But when she saw the sincerity in Ye Lan’s invitation, she couldn’t bring herself to say no, "...Sure."

Actually, even if Ye Lan hadn’t spoken, she wouldn’t have gone with Qin Si to meet his parents.
