Chapter 622: 179 Endless Night_2

Mr. Su’s words were naturally not meant just for Su Zhen to hear; they were also intended for Qin Haiming and Mu Yichen to listen. As for Qin Mu, even though she was Qin Haiming’s daughter, he still didn’t take her seriously.

However, Mr. Su couldn’t disregard Qin Haiming, especially now that he had such a son-in-law, and the last time they talked on the phone, Qin Haiming had made that very clear.

"Good! I got it!"

Su Zhen agreed, and after serving the dishes she took the initiative to stand up, "Let me toast Uncle Qin first, for all the worries you’ve had since I came to Rongcheng!"

Mr. Su looked up with a smile to watch his daughter, then turned his gaze to the other man sitting beside him.

Qin Haiming was seated at the head of the table this time. He had made way when he came in, but when Mr. Su insisted, he had said, "Obedience is better than politeness," and sat down. After all, he needed to show support for his daughter, and now Su Zhen unexpectedly stood up to toast him.

He lifted his eyes to look at Su Zhen, also smiling, but his smile was naturally different from Mr. Su’s.

Under his gaze, Su Zhen drank a glass of red wine in one go.

"Miss Su, you can really hold your liquor!"

Qin Haiming simply remarked.

"This girl takes after me. She started drinking a little when she saw me drinking from a young age, and indeed, her capacity for liquor is quite good. Let her accompany you for a few more drinks later," Mr. Su said.

"My daughter does take after me too, but she’s terrible with alcohol, and now that she’s pregnant, she can’t drink at all."

Qin Haiming said with a smile.

"That’s nothing! You still have a fine son-in-law, don’t you!"

"Yes! Yichen, later on, have a few more drinks with your Uncle Su on Mumu’s behalf."

"No problem!"

Mu Yichen looked up, as Yang Bo’s father was among the elders he respected the most, so he decided to grant this face-saving favor.

Yang Bo’s father gestured subtly and exchanged a mutually understanding look with Mu Yichen, while Qin Mu simply sat there properly, not concerned about whatever they were planning.

"I heard from Zhen Zhen that Miss Qin is an incredible designer. May I ask who she studied under?"

Mr. Su inquired of Qin Mu with seeming modesty.

Mu Yichen turned to look at Qin Mu, who gazed back at Mr. Su across the table.

"My master is JY!"

Qin Mu responded politely, her smile seeming warm, but her eyes clearly displayed a "do not disturb" sign.

It seemed Mr. Su had heard something about it, and after listening he nodded, "I haven’t really heard much, although I don’t understand your fashion world, but Zhen Zhen does have some resources in the fashion circle, she should have heard of him, right?"

"Dad! He’s a world-class design master, you really are out of touch," Su Zhen replied, following his question.

"Oh? Such an impressive figure," Mr. Su raised his eyebrows, still looking at his daughter indulgently.

"Maybe JY will come to Rongcheng if Miss Qin and Mu get married? Perhaps then you could meet him."

"My master doesn’t really like making new friends!"

Qin Mu only replied with a smile, not caring for the spectacle the father and daughter duo were putting on, but surely her master wasn’t someone just anyone could meet?

Mr. Su and Su Zhen both glanced at Qin Mu with a touch of awkwardness while Qin Haiming and Yang Yaorong clearly didn’t expect her to be so dismissive. They all looked her way.

"Actually, whether he comes to our wedding is still unknown, although he has personally made my wife’s wedding dress in Paris," Mu Yichen explained as he watched everyone look at them as if they were oddities, while he held his wife’s hand within his own and lightly chuckled.

"This person has some quite unpleasant quirks!"

Mu Yichen added another line, and the tension in the air eased momentarily as Mr. Su, Qin Haiming, and Yang Yaorong began to laugh softly and chit-chat again.

Qin Mu, on the other hand, looked at her husband displeased, her eyes accusingly questioned him: How dare he speak of her master’s quirks? He was asking for trouble.

Mu seemed amused, his eyebrows lifted with a look that seemed to say: I’m willing.

Qin Mu felt her annoyance chilled to the bone by his gaze.

Su Zhen sat quietly across from them, watching. In her eyes, the two were blatantly flirting.

In front of three senior family members, they held hands and made eyes at each other. The more Su Zhen thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, and then she cast her eyes down.

"Actually, I don’t necessarily need to meet JY, even though he is famous! But what fashion circles don’t lack are celebrities," Su Zhen couldn’t help but raise her head and say that to Qin Mu.

The atmosphere, which had just relaxed, chilled once again.

Qin Haiming and Yang Yaorong looked at her doubtfully, while Mr. Su kept his head down, only his eyes betraying his motion, and then raised his head with a smile, saying to everyone, "Ah, the temper of my precious daughter is truly something that can’t be changed in a moment!"
