Chapter 255 -255: Playful Appearance
“Grandfather Rong, that’s not necessary. I just don’t understand why Luo Chen cannot drink? Usually, having a few drinks with elders isn’t it something that the younger generation should do? Moreover, drinking at a business dinner is also a form of etiquette, isn’t it? If Luo Chen doesn’t drink, won’t it seem very impolite?” After Xu Han finished speaking, he looked at Ji Luochen with a somewhat apologetic expression and continued, “I’m sorry, I’m just used to speaking my mind. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, Luo Chen, then I apologize.”
Ji Luochen listened, furrowed his brows, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
But his hand was grabbed by Mu Lingyun.
Mu Lingyun cast a soothing glance at Ji Luochen before turning to Xu Han, her tone detached, “Brother Chen certainly won’t feel uncomfortable. I’m just curious whether Mr. Xu would feel awkward. My grandfather has already said that there will be no drinking at the dinner table today. If Mr. Xu wants to drink, my family can send a bottle of wine for you to drink at home. It’s already been made so clear, yet Mr. Xu is still going on and on. Are your ears not working, or is it your brain? Or is it both? Also, whether Brother Chen drinks with the elders or how he attends business dinners, what has it got to do with you? You keep talking about things that don’t concern you, are you entering menopause in your twenties? I suggest Mr. Xu find time to visit the hospital, don’t age prematurely.”
Xu Han’s face darkened significantly, looking very unpleasant.
“Dear granddaughter, why would you talk to Xiaohan like that?” Grandfather Rong timely interjected, “Apologize to Xiaohan right now.”

Mu Lingyun scoffed, then turned to Xu Han and said, “I’m sorry, if my words made you feel uncomfortable, then I apologize.”
After Mu Lingyun finished, she pinched the underside of the table and Ji Luochen’s palm, flashing a mischievous smile at him.
Ji Luochen looked at the girl’s playful demeanor and unconsciously swallowed.
If it weren’t for the presence of elders around, he would have pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.
Grandfather Rong did not notice their interaction and said to Xu Han with a smile, “Little Yunyun is spoiled by us, she speaks without a filter, don’t hold it against her.”
Xu Han, visibly upset, had to smile and say, “Why would I take it personally with her?”
Shortly after, the dinner table regained its calm.
Soon, they finished dinner, and then gathered in the garden to drink tea.
Everyone chatted about various topics, and an hour quickly passed.
“I need to use the restroom.” Ji Luochen said to Mu Lingyun, then stood up and walked towards the garden restroom.
Mu Lingyun initially didn’t pay much attention, but inadvertently, she saw Xu Han also standing up and walking in the direction Ji Luochen had gone.
Fearing that Ji Luochen might be harassed, she frowned, stood up, and walked that way.
Just a few steps away, she indeed saw Xu Han blocking Ji Luochen.
After Xu Han stopped Ji Luochen, he said, “Luo Chen, don’t think that just because the Rong family likes you, you can be proud. Don’t forget, you are still just an ordinary person with no status or family background. The Rong family might tolerate your dating, but they will absolutely not allow you to marry into the family. To become a son-in-law of the Rong family, one of the four great families of the capital, you are not worthy. If you know what’s good for you, leave quickly, lest you end up heartbroken.”
