Old Madame Yue couldn't flare up on the spot, but she was already in a bad mood.
When Old Master Li walked in, everyone in the room immediately looked at him.
"Old Master Li!" Everyone greeted him respectfully.
The few women who had been discussing earlier were also pulled back to reality. They understood that no matter how bad the Li family was now and no matter what others said about them, Old Master Li's contribution to the entire S Country was not something that could be dismissed with a few words.
No matter what, Shi Jin was still his granddaughter. Her status couldn't be belittled with just a few words.
Facing Old Master Li, many people retracted their thoughts.
When Old Madame Yue saw him, her expression softened. Although she looked down on Shi Jin, Old Master Li was a talent who served the country and the people. He was respected by the whole country, and the Yue family couldn't ignore him.
Thinking about it this way, Shi Jin's identity as the adopted daughter of the Yue family wasn't considered as Shi Jin climbing up the social ladder.
"Old Master Li, how have you been?" Old Madame Yue smiled.
"Old Madame Yue, long time no see. You're still as healthy as ever," Old Master Li said with a smile as he strode over, looking hale and hearty.
The two of them sat down and chatted casually. They probably knew that mentioning Shi Jin wasn't a good topic to discuss, so they didn't mention Shi Jin at all.
Yue Lanchen's voice was heard. "I'm back!"
Everyone looked at him. He was walking in with Shi Jin.
Compared to Yue Lanchen's lively personality, Shi Jin was incomparably cold.
Many people were talking about her just now, but now that they saw her in person, some words couldn't be said.
In the face of such a beautiful young lady and with Old Master Li here, everyone could only see Shi Jin's good points.
"Grandpa." Shi Jin ran toward Old Master Li.
"Good boy," Old Master Li said with a smile. "This is Lanchen's grandmother. You can call her Granny Yue."
"Hello, Granny Yue." Shi Jin greeted her softly. She saw that Old Madame Yue was about the same age as Old Master Li. She looked a little dignified and unapproachable.
Old Madame Yue nodded. "Okay."
"Sit here. My grandfather has a few words to say to you," Old Master Li said.
Shi Jin sat down obediently.
Old Master Li said calmly, "Grandpa is far away. Many times, I can't take care of you and accompany you in person. The Imperial Capital was a place with a lot of people. There were many opportunities and traps. Grandpa feels very relieved and happy that Yue Feng and his wife are willing to acknowledge you as their adopted daughter. I hope that you will stay here and follow your heart. Grandpa has nothing to worry about. "
"I will, Grandpa." Shi Jin nodded.
"That's good, I believe that everyone in the Yue Clan is magnanimous and won't treat you badly." Old Master Li said with a smile.
Old Madame Yue could tell that some of these words were directed at Shi Jin, but some of them were directed at her.
However, it wasn't good for him to lose his temper, so he forced himself to listen.
Yue Yu turned her head and walked into the crowd of guests. She heard people whispering about Shi Jin's orchid transplant a few days ago. They also talked about how Shi Jin had won an award for his dancing and his outstanding medical skills.
She had heard a lot about Shi Jin when she was abroad. When she came back, she always had a good impression of Shi Jin.
However, ever since she felt that Shi Jin's parents had helped him with the orchid transplant, Yue Yu was very suspicious of Shi Jin's various skills.
Who would dare to say that Shi Jin's things were done by her?
Apart from Yue Feng and his wife, had Old Master Li also helped her? Was her management company also setting up a persona for her all this time?
She couldn't say these words out loud, but she had her own thoughts.
Soon, it was time for the formal salute.
After Shi Jin offered tea to Yue Feng and his wife and bowed, this matter was considered done.
