Qi Ming Wei and his wife, Yang Ran, stood up as they exchanged their greetings with Fang Su Jin. Then, Yang Ran pulled Fang Su Jin to sit close to her side.
It was their first meeting and Yang Ran was worried that Fang Su Jin would be uncomfortable meeting Zhang Yi Hai’s elder for the first time.
The server walked over and took their order.
Once the server left, Yang Ran took the initiative to chat with Fang Su Jin.
As she was very close to Zhang Li Xue, both Qi Ming Wei and his wife realized that they had seen Fang Su Jin before.
Knowing that Zhang Yi Hai was dating his sister’s best friend surprised the couple. Fortunately, they were able to hide their expression very well.
Qi Ming Wei looked at Zhang Yi Hai and spoke, “Did your sister know about this?”
“She did not know. Uncle, Aunt, I hope that you can help me to keep this matter a secret from my sister,” Zhang Yi Hai said. “When the time comes, I will talk to my sister about this.”
Qi Ming Wei chuckled. “I’m guessing that your parents did not know about this as well.”
.....
Fang Su Jin began to tense at the thought of Zhang Yi Hai’s parents knowing about their relationship.
“They did not know about this,” Zhang Yi Hai admitted. “Uncle, you are the first to know.”
Qi Ming Wei did not know whether he should be proud to be the first to know about this matter. He did not mind keeping this matter a secret from Zhang Yi Hai’s parents.
However, keeping a secret from Zhang Yu Han could be troublesome as well.
Qi Ming Wei could still remember how he and the others have to keep Zhang Li Xue’s relationship a secret from her father.
After pondering about this matter for a while, Qi Ming Wei finally waved his hand. “I won’t interfere in this matter and I won’t speak a word to others about this. But Yi Hai, just like your sister, you have to be the person who breaks the news to them. It’s better for them to hear this news from you.”
“I understand.” Zhang Yi Hai had a serious look on his face. “Su Jin and I had discussed this. We’ll let everyone know after I completed my study.”
Qi Ming Wei thought that this decision was also good. He knew that Zhang Yu Han always wanted his children to focus on their studies before they could think of falling in love.
However, Zhang Yi Hai would graduate soon and Qi Ming Wei did not think that there was any problem with this arrangement. Moreover, Zhang Yi Hai’s grade has always been good. It would not be a problem even if he had a girlfriend now.
Seeing that Zhang Yi Hai already had everything planned made him realize that the young man was really serious about his relationship.
Qi Ming Wei subconsciously glanced at Fang Su Jin who was chatting with his wife amiably. Then, he looked at Zhang Yi Hai again.
A thought came to his mind and a faint smile curled on his face.
Qi Ming Wei spoke. He raised his glass and drank a few mouthfuls of drinks. Then, he smiled. “Zhang Yi Hai, not only you and your great-grandfather shared the same birthdate, but the two of you are quite similar as well.”
Zhang Yi Hai naturally knew what his uncle meant when he said this.
His great-grandfather and great-grandmother’s love story were quite well known in the family. The two had a large age gap with his great-grandmother being the oldest.
In the past, he had heard how his great-grandmother had rejected his great-grandfather’s advance due to their age difference. Moreover, his great-grandmother was also insecure because of her previous marriage.
The two of them faced a lot of challenges together. But in the end, they both stayed together for a long time. They were very loving.
The group continued to have their meal while chatting for a while.
Fang Su Jin did not forget to express her gratitude to Qi Ming Wei for helping her with Mika’s matter.
Qi Ming Wei merely smiled as he heard Fang Su Jin’s thank.
Actually, he did not do anything much regarding the matter. He only picked up his phone and dialed a number. The one who helped Zhan Yi Hai and Fang Su Jin were Eric Tan.
That man was powerful and influential enough in F Country to pull some strings and help the couple.
Qi Ming Wei knew that the only reason Eric Tan was willing to help Zhang Yi Hai was because of his son. If it was not because of Qi Jing Xuan, the man would not be willing to help.
“You can thank my son for this.” Qi Ming Wei patted his son on the shoulder. “I heard that he had worked hard to help find some evidence.”
Fang Su Jin turned to Qi Jing Xuan and nodded. “Thank you.”
“Sister, don’t mention it. After all, we are all family,” Qi Jing Xuan spoke. “If any of you got into trouble in F Country again, you can come and find me.”
Qi Ming Wei and his wife did not hold the couple back for too long. After all, they had just arrived in F Country a few hours ago and had to hurry to the restaurant to meet Zhang Yi Hai.
After the long flight, they were indeed feeling a little tired and decided to head back to their residence in F Country and rest.
Zhang Yi Hai watched as the family of three left before he turned to Fang Su Jin again. “Are you still anxious?”
Fang Su Jin laughed. Then, she shook her head. “No. Fortunately, they are quite friendly.”
A faint smile curled on his lips. “Mmm... My uncles and aunts were mostly very friendly. You have met a few of them previously. Next time when you meet them, you don’t have to be nervous as well.”
Last time, Zhang Yi Hai invited a few of his relatives to attend Fang Su Jin’s exhibition. Fang Su Jin could still remember it was because of this incident that her name became well-known among the other young painters.
Seeing that there was no one else around, Zhang Yi Hai wrapped his arms around Fang Su Jin’s body and put her chin on her shoulder. “Then, Su Jin, this could also be considered as a practice for us. In a few months, we will have to tell everyone that we are together.”
Her heart skipped a beat. Thinking of their future together made her shy.
Fang Su Jin was glad that Zhang Yi Hai was hugging her at this moment. Otherwise, he might notice how her face had turned red.
