Chapter 386 The Girl I'm Destined For

Liang Liangwei noticed that while the group was having breakfast together, Xiao Ling would glance at her and Yan Zhixu from time to time with a very complicated look in her eyes.

Their eyes met again, and they both smiled.

Xiao Ling explained somewhat suspiciously, "I... I saw that Zhixu recently got a new hairstyle. He said his girlfriend did it for him the other day. I didn't think it was you at the time. Now that I think about it, we were really slow to realize."

The stitches on Yan Zhixu's forehead have been removed, and after a period of recovery, the scar has faded and is barely noticeable unless you look closely.

But his new hairstyle remained.

As long as Liang Liangwei is by his side in the morning, she will take care of his appearance before letting him go out.

“Having a stylist girlfriend really makes a difference; men can look this stylish too,” Xiao Ling joked.

Liang Liangwei rested her chin on her hand, looked at Yan Zhixu's hairstyle, and laughed, "I don't often style men, so I can use him as a practice target. Then I can take on this kind of job in the future."

Xiao Ling was amused by her: "So Zhixu has the potential to be a target?"

Yan Zhixu smiled and placed the peeled egg into Liang Liangwei's bowl: "Fortunately, she's a professional."

Liang Liangwei squinted and said, "You're implying that I'm just messing around with your hairstyle, but because I'm a professional, you can tolerate it?"

Yan Zhixu raised an eyebrow: "Did I say that?"

Xiao Ling: "Zhixu, don't worry, Weiwei is absolutely professional, I can guarantee that."

Yan Zhixu said helplessly, "That's really not what I meant."

The two women ignored his self-defense and started talking about other things.

Xiao Ling: "Weiwei, I'm going to an auction with Brother Zhixu the night after tomorrow. Do you have time? Can I book a styling appointment with you?"

Liang Liangwei thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, I happen to be free that afternoon. We'll contact each other in advance."

As she spoke, she took out her phone, opened her schedule, and added the task of styling Xiao Ling to it.

Xiao Ling smiled and said, "That's great! My new dress will arrive tomorrow, and it matches the brooch you gave me perfectly. I'll wear it over the day after tomorrow!"

Liang Liangwei: "I'll create a look for you that will perfectly match your new dress. That way, you'll definitely be the most beautiful woman at the auction!"

Xiao Ling now finds it perfectly natural to hear her call her "sister-in-law"; in fact, it sounds like heavenly music.

"Weiwei, you're such a little angel~"

The three men at the table: "..."

Yan Bei'an came downstairs yawning and greeted them lazily: "Good morning, Grandpa; good morning, Mom, Dad, and Uncle."

After greeting her, he sat down next to Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling glanced at him: "Can't you see clearly this early in the morning? Aren't you going to greet Weiwei?"

Yan Bei'an looked up and saw Liang Liangwei diagonally opposite him, feeling a little awkward: "Good morning."

Liang Liangwei was much more at ease than him, and smiled as she replied, "Good morning."

Little rascal, one day you'll be calling me auntie willingly!

Seeing that Yan Bei'an didn't seem to be in good spirits, and remembering that his cold hadn't gotten better, Xiao Ling couldn't help but feel sorry for him: "Have you finished your medicine? If you're still not feeling well, should I call the doctor over to take a look at you?"

Yan Bei'an sniffed: "Much better, don't worry, it's just a minor problem."

Xiao Ling: "How can I not worry if she doesn't know how to take care of herself? What if she had a girlfriend..."

She realized she'd spoken too quickly as soon as the words left her mouth, so she stopped herself, coughed lightly, and said, "Remember to see a doctor again if you're not feeling well."

Yan Bei'an lowered his eyes and silently ate, saying, "I understand."

Grandpa Yan had been quietly eating his breakfast, and now that he had almost finished, he stopped.

Looking at Liang Liangwei, he asked, "Weiwei, I've never asked you before, what does your family do?"

After returning to his room last night, he examined the box of jade chess pieces again and recognized that the quality was exceptional and its value was certainly not low.

Even setting aside the monetary value, she must have an exceptional ability to appreciate these rare items, and the means by which she acquired them must have been quite ordinary. The fact that she can do all of these things suggests that her family has put a lot of effort into her upbringing.

In other words, this is not something an ordinary family can do.

Now it's finally time to talk about the family situation.

Liang Liangwei took out a tissue to wipe her lips and said, "Uncle, what I was just about to tell you is that my father is a military officer and I grew up in a military compound."

The children of military officers who grew up in the compound?

These are children of high-ranking officials!

Everyone except Yan Zhixu was stunned.

Yan Bei'an looked up, surprised, and asked, "Your father is a soldier? I've never heard you mention that."

Liang Liangwei: "I don't need to tell everyone about this, do I?"

Unless you're visiting each other's parents to discuss family circumstances, no one would constantly bring up the fact that they come from a privileged background.

Yan Beian glanced at Yan Zhixu, curled his lips, and said, "That's true. If it weren't for Uncle, we might never have known."

Grandpa Yan was also surprised and looked at Yan Zhixu: "You knew all along?"

Yan Zhixu nodded: "Weiwei already told me."

Grandpa Yan murmured softly, "Then I'll be marrying a military officer. I need to find someone to find out what I should be careful about..."

Yan Zhixu didn't hear clearly: "What?"

Grandpa Yan snapped out of his reverie and said, "It's nothing. Weiwei, where is your mother?"

Liang Liangwei paused, her tone somewhat somber, and said, "My mother passed away from illness when I was in junior high school."

A moment of silence fell over the group.

Old Master Yan looked apologetic: "I'm sorry..."

Yan Zhixu grasped Liang Liangwei's hand.

Liang Liangwei smiled back and said to Grandpa Yan, "It's alright. She has been gone for many years, and I have long since accepted it."

Old Master Yan said slowly, "Xiao Er, since Weiwei has come to our house, you should arrange a time to visit Weiwei's father and let him know that you two are dating."

Yan Zhixu: "I understand, and preparations are already underway."

Old Master Yan said solemnly, "Prepare the gifts properly. You represent the Yan family, so please take this seriously."

Yan Zhixu: "I know."

Grandpa Yan has completely accepted her.

Liang Liangwei blinked, feeling a surge of warmth welling up in her heart.

I was quite nervous when I first arrived last night, thinking that they would dislike me for a long time. But after we talked things out, they accepted me back so quickly, and even treated me better than before.

After breakfast, Xiao Ling invited them to stay for lunch, but Yan Zhixu said she had a video conference to attend and needed to rush back to prepare, so Xiao Ling had no choice but to decline.

Liang Liangwei naturally followed him.

Yan Bei'an also said he wanted to leave.

Xiao Ling glared at him and said, "What's your rush? You still have a cold. Rest at home for another night and go straight to the company tomorrow."

Yan Bei'an: "Since I'm going to rest anyway, I might as well go back to my own place to rest."

Xiao Ling: "Isn't this your home? And you live alone there, who cooks for you?"

Yan Beian said helplessly, "Mom, I can usually eat my fill, how come I'm starving just because I have a cold?"

Xiao Ling: "How can you get better from your cold if you eat out every day?"

Yan Beian pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "How about this, I'll stay another night, but Mom, you have to promise me one thing."

Xiao Ling: "Do I have to make a deal with you to take care of you? Tell me what it is first?"

Yan Beian glanced at Old Master Yan in the garden and said, "Please talk to Grandpa for me and ask him not to rush me into marriage anymore. There's no use in rushing this. Also, please don't arrange any marriages for me. I really don't like those daughters of prominent families. If we force ourselves to be together, I might offend them and end up in an awkward situation for both families."

Xiao Ling frowned and said, "You're already 26..."

Yan Bei'an: "What's wrong with 26? Isn't that the prime of life? Why are you making it sound like I'm seventy or eighty?"

Xiao Ling was both amused and exasperated, and gave him a reproachful look.

Just then, Yan Zhixu and Liang Liangwei finished packing and came over from the back building, ready to leave. The man was handsome and the woman was pretty, and they looked like a perfect match.

Yan Bei'an gestured for her to look and whispered, "Didn't you tell me to learn from my uncle? I genuinely think you're right. No matter how much Grandpa and his maternal grandfather have urged him over the years, my uncle has remained calm and methodical. Look, he has both a successful career and a happy marriage."

Xiao Ling looked at the two of them, who were very affectionate, with a thoughtful expression.

Yan Bei'an: "So, you and Grandpa, don't worry. Dad told me last night that I should go back to the group headquarters after the New Year. I've already agreed, so how can I have the energy to focus on relationships right now? Maybe my destined girl is waiting to meet me at some unexpected time."

Xiao Ling actually thought it made a lot of sense.
