Chapter 516: Chapter 516 The Tragic Thief (1)

Ye Chenghong’s words made An Yiqing’s face turn red, as if she had brushed on a layer of intoxicating rouge. Illuminated in her white dress under the dazzling lights, she appeared even more stunningly enchanting.

"Master, you’re actually teasing me!" The girl looked at Ye Chenghong with feigned annoyance, her eyes and heart full of a young lady’s charm.

Coincidentally, at this moment, Gu Yelin walked over. Seeing An Yiqing’s coy demeanor, his heart stirred, and he wrapped his large hand firmly around her slender waist.

"Elder Ye!" Gu Yelin greeted with respect.

Ye Chenghong nodded with a smile, then turned his gaze toward Old Master Gu and Old Master An, who were walking this way.

"Old Ye, it’s been a hasty goodbye at the An Family banquet last time, and you heartless man didn’t think to look for me! How many years has it been since we’ve seen each other? Can’t you even make a phone call when you’re free?" Old Master Gu glared, speaking harsh words with a gaze full of deep affection.

Ye Chenghong let out a hearty laugh, extended his hand affectionately, and gave Old Master Gu a firm pat on the back.

"Old Gu, it’s been twenty years since we last saw each other, and you still have that same caustic nature!"

"Humph! Still okay, not yet so old that I’m dizzy and blurred!"

Both Old Master Gu and Ye Chenghong couldn’t help but feel sentimental in their hearts; time waits for no one. Twenty years ago, they were in their prime, but now, they had both become grandfathers!

"Elder Gu, Younger Brother Ye, stop standing outside. Come on, let’s go in and talk inside!" Old Master An said with a smile, looking at the two old friends who hadn’t seen each other for a long time.

Old Master Gu and Ye Chenghong nodded repeatedly, leading the whole crowd from the Gu Family and the An Family as they bustled into Prosperous Haoting.

In the private room of Prosperous Haoting owned by Gu Yelin.

Due to the large number of people—the Gu Family and An Family together amounted to more than twenty people—Gu Yelin had specially arranged an extra-large Yulan marble table.

"Everyone, please sit down, don’t be shy. Today, we are mainly here to discuss Lao San and Qingqing’s marriage. This is a family matter, so no need for formality." Old Master Gu waved his hand and took his seat first with Old Master An and Ye Chenghong.

Seeing this, the younger generation quickly took their seats as well.

Following the serving of the dishes, the table erupted in a harmonious chorus of laughter and chatter.

"Elder An, back in the day, we fought side by side, annihilating many enemies. I never thought that, after so many years, we would be fortunate enough to become in-laws! Wonderful! Truly wonderful! I took a liking to Qingqing the moment I saw her, such a spirited girl!" Old Master Gu looked at An Yiqing, who was sitting nearby, his gaze revealing an unmistakable admiration and fondness.

Hearing others praise his precious granddaughter, a smile blossomed across Old Master An’s face.

"Elder Gu, your Lao San is well-known in Xuanjin as a young talent. In terms of ability, who can match him? These two kids have been together for so long, and we’ve all seen it. Although Lao San is cool and not very talkative, he’s attentive and considerate. He treats my Niuniu exceptionally well. Sometimes, even my wife compares the boy to me! Sigh! I’m getting old, to be criticized by my own wife for not being caring enough!"

Old Master An’s playful remarks had everyone laughing, while Old Lady An smiled and cast a stern glare at her husband.

"Still so unreliable at this age, Xiao Gu is much more dependable than you! Brother Gu, I like your Xiao Gu, and I’m a hundred percent confident entrusting my precious Niuniu to him!"

Old Lady An was straightforward, and her sincere words were soothing to the heart. Listening to the couple’s praise of his grandson, Old Master Gu’s face beamed with joy.
