"Staying with Jiling meant this will happen often and unexpectedly. Vengeful spirits could appear in front of you two at any time. And it could happen when you aren't mentally prepared, which means you'll be scared," Gu Yingsu said.

"It's fine if it happened once or twice. But if it happened frequently? Will you have the patience to continue on?" Gu Yingsu asked worriedly.

"You must be talking about her cousin's ex-husband, right?" Han Zhuofeng asked.

Gu Yingsu looked over at Xie Jiling in surprise.

She didn't expect that Xie Jiling had already told Han Zhuofeng about it.

"I already told him," Xie Jiling said.

"Actually, before we started dating, Grandma knew that I liked Jiling, and she intentionally used an excuse to get Jiling to visit the family home. Her actual intention was to chat with Jiling." Han Zhuofeng explained with a smile.

Xie Jiling said in surprise, "Grandma… she wasn't asking me to see if there's anything dirty in the house?"

"You're still going to do it when you arrive at the house anyway," Han Zhuofeng explained. He then turned and said to Xie Tongyun and the others, "Xie Jiling is so innocent. It's great."

Xie Tongyun and the others were speechless.

What was the point of us being here if you took every chance to compliment her?

"At that time, our family already knew about Jiling's job. Grandma just wanted to ask if Jiling liked anyone. If she had no one she liked, then Grandma will get Jiling to like me."

"What if she did have someone else she likes?" Xu Jialin couldn't help but ask.

"Well, I would try my best to kick that person away and get Jiling to like me," Han Zhuofeng said.

Xu Jialin was speechless.

Xu Jialin felt as though words couldn't express how she felt right now as she turned around and looked at Xie Jiwen.

He's younger than you but look at the tricks up his sleeve!

Xu Jialin suddenly didn't want to look at this son of hers.

Xie Jiwen was speechless.

Xie Jiling's eyes widened as she looked at Han Zhuofeng in shock.

Was that really what he thought?

"My family loves Jiling, and they know about her situation. They aren't worried about me," Han Zhuofeng said.

The Xie Family had never interacted with the members of the Han Family before, so they wouldn't know how the Han Family usually behaved.Han Zhuofeng then said, "Dad. Mom. If you're free, would you like to set up a meeting with my family?"

Han Zhuofeng immediately wanted to put in the work for it. "I'll be staying here for a few days. If you're free these few days, why don't you come with us when Jiling and I leave?"

"The elders of the two families can take the chance to sit down and chat with each other. You can get to know the Han Family and me more. This way, you will feel less concerned about Jiling's relationship with me, right?" Han Zhuofeng said.

Xie Tongyun and Gu Yingsu exchanged glances.

And they had been set up just like that?

Xu Jialin was so envious as she looked at Han Zhuofeng.

Han Zhuofeng's reactions were great and fast. He was consistently pulling tricks out of his sleeves.

Remarkable.

Were all the kids of the Han Family this remarkable?

She instantly saw Han Zhuofeng as the remarkable child of another family.

She then turned around and looked at her son Xie Jiwen.

Comparing Xie Jiwen to Han Zhuofeng, she should disown Xie Jiwen.

Xie Jiwen couldn't handle it anymore.

Ever since Han Zhuofeng's visit today, the way his mom looked at him changed.

There was contempt.

There was dislike.

Had he not brought her future daughter-in-law back for her?

Xie Jiwen was so angry that he wanted to lash out at Han Zhuofeng.

But before Xie Jiwen could say anything, Xu Jialin pulled him and whispered, "I'm telling you. Don't make things difficult for him."

Xie Jiwen was speechless.

Mom. Who was your son?

This kid had only been here for about an hour!

Xu Jialin continued whispering, "Look at how smart and quick-witted he is! And look at how good he is at tricking your uncle and aunt!"

They were blinded by his tricks!"I think your uncle and aunt are definitely considering leaving with them to B City. Look at his skills at tricking people! As expected of a director."

Xie Jiwen had no idea of the conversation Xu Jialin was having with herself.

If not, he would have asked how the ability to trick someone could be related to being a director.

"This is why you should learn from him. You should learn from him while Zhuofeng is still here. Get more knowledge. It would be best if Zhuofeng can teach you a few tricks," Xu Jialin said with contempt, "Don't offend him, or he may not teach you."

"No matter how much you dislike him, he's your future brother-in-law. Your struggle is futile." Xu Jialin said, "You might as well stop struggling and learn from him so that you can get a wife sooner than later."

"You're already old," Xu Jialin grumbled, "Zhuofeng is younger than you, and he's already at the meeting with the parents' phase. What about you?"

Xie Jiwen finally surrendered. "Mom. Stop it. I will do as you say."

"Jiling will bring Han Zhuofeng back to meet the parents today. Stop scolding me," Xie Jiwen said, "You said that uncle and aunt have been blinded by Han Zhuofeng's tricks. Shouldn't you help keep an eye out?"

Xie Jiwen was right.

Xu Jialin finally stopped paying attention to Xie Jiwen.

She then heard Xie Tongyun and Gu Yingsu speak, "Why don't… we go to B City with Zhuofeng and Jiling?"

"True. Zhuofeng came all the way here to our house. We should visit the elders of the Han Family as well," Xie Tongyun said.

Gu Yingsu hesitated slightly before she nodded and said, "That's good."

After meeting Han Zhuofeng tonight, she now had a positive opinion of Han Zhuofeng.

The young fellow was very sincere.

However, this was their first time meeting, and they didn't know each other well.

Gu Yingsu thought that they could go to B City with Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng.

While they were on the way there, they could get to know Han Zhuofeng more. Then, they could have a good chat with the elders of the Han Family and personally confirm the Han Family's intention.

They could also get to know Han Zhuofeng's family.

If Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng really got married in the future…

They would be far away in Lingnan while Xie Jiling would live with Han Zhuofeng in B City. In this case, it would be very important to know more about the people in Han Zhuofeng's family.

"How long do you plan to stay here? We can start preparing early to go to B City with you," Gu Yingsu asked.

Xie Jiling then said, "Zhuofeng has just finished a film. He granted his colleagues working on post-production a week of vacation, and he's here with me during his week off. When he goes back, he will resume overseeing the post-production of the film."

"Therefore, we intend to stay here for four days before going back to B City," Xie Jiling said, "When we go back, Zhuofeng will have two remaining days of vacation before he has to resume work."

"The timing is good. You can go back with us, and I can use keep you all accompanied on my remaining days of leave," Han Zhuofeng added.

Gu Yingsu nodded and said, "Sure. Let us prepare ourselves then."

"The kids are tired today. You should drink less and let them get a good rest." Gu Yingsu instructed Xie Tongyun.

In Xie Jiwen's opinion, Gu Yingsu's attitude clearly showed that she was very satisfied with Han Zhuofeng.
