Chapter 266 Mother He
Seeing the smile on Grandpa He's face, Lin Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the planning she did last night wasn't a waste of time!

"Thank you, grandpa."

He Qi'an, who was standing to the side, was about to explain when he heard his girlfriend's words. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her in surprise, not expecting Yan Yan to be so smart and eloquent.

"Xiao Yan, Qi An said you have an older brother?"

"Yes, Grandpa He."

Are your grandparents still alive?

"They're gone. My grandparents passed away when my father was a teenager..."

……

He Qi'an listened from the side, occasionally chiming in with a word or two.

To his utter surprise, his girlfriend wasn't afraid of his grandfather at all, and the two actually got along quite well!
Looking at Lin Xiaoyan, Old He was very satisfied.

This is a kind and innocent child.

Kindness was the reason he accepted the child.

The fact that she didn't become like other superhumans and look down on everything after she gained her powers shows that this child has a good character and a kind heart.

Naive? It's alright, he's a member of the He family now, and no one dares to bully him.

It's good that she's simple-minded; at least she likes her grandson as a person, unlike other girls who always want to gain something from him.

As Lin Xiaoyan talked with Grandpa He, she gradually relaxed. She hadn't expected that He Qi'an's grandfather was so kind and amiable.

They talked about everyday things, and she told him about her family. She noticed that Grandpa He didn't show any disgust or perfunctory attitude after listening.

Lin Xiaoyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness.

"The minister and his wife have returned."

Everyone in the room heard Uncle Han's voice. When Lin Xiaoyan heard that He Qi'an's parents had returned, her gradually easing mood immediately turned tense.

He Qi'an keenly sensed his girlfriend's nervousness, and he gently patted her hand to indicate that everything was alright.

"Have Qi An and the others arrived yet?" Mother He asked.

Uncle Han nodded, "They've arrived. They're sitting in the living room chatting with the old man."

Upon hearing this, Mother He strode in.

Seeing his wife's hurried steps, Mr. He's heart tightened, and he immediately followed.

Hearing someone walk in, Lin Xiaoyan quickly stood up and looked over.

The first person to walk in was a woman dressed very neatly and smartly, looking very energetic and young. However, Lin Xiaoyan knew that this was He Qi'an's mother because of her similar face to He Qi'an.

"Hello auntie."

When He's mother saw the girl standing next to her son, her heart sank.

It's very ordinary, extremely ordinary!

Not good-looking, not good-looking, not good-looking, not good-looking...

Her son is so outstanding, why did he choose to marry an ordinary person?

She couldn't understand why her eldest son was like this, and now her youngest son was the same way!
"Xiao Lin is here." Mr. He said with a smile when he saw Lin Xiaoyan, following behind his wife.

Upon seeing Minister He, Lin Xiaoyan's eyes lit up. "Hello, Minister He."

Mr. He walked over with a smile, "Haha, since you're here at home, don't call me Minister, just call me Uncle."

Lin Xiaoyan immediately changed her address to "Uncle".

"Hey, sit down, sit down."

Mr. He tugged at his wife's sleeve. Mrs. He felt uncomfortable, but still maintained a polite smile.

"Hello, Ms. Lin."

These words stunned everyone present.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly came to her senses and said, "Hello."

This time, she didn't call her "Auntie" anymore. She could clearly sense that He Qi'an's mother didn't like her.

He Qi'an's face turned cold. He looked at his mother with a cold gaze. He thought he had made himself clear, but he didn't expect that his mother would still do as she pleased today, disregarding everyone. Old Master He's face also darkened. If this weren't his daughter-in-law, he would definitely have yelled at her and thrown her out.

Old Master He glared at his son with ill intent. He Zhi received his father's gaze and felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.

"Xiao Lin, sit down quickly, sit down quickly."

He's father ignored his wife and warmly invited Lin Xiaoyan to sit down.

Lin Xiaoyan sat down awkwardly, and He Qi'an glanced coldly at his mother before sitting down as well.

After sitting down, Mrs. He asked directly, "Where is Miss Lin from?"

Lin Xiaoyan sat up straight and said respectfully, "Henan Province."

"Henan Province!" Mother He couldn't hide her disgust.

"Everyone says people from Henan Province aren't very good..."

"Mom!" He Qi'an shouted warningly.

Old He's face darkened again, and he glared angrily at his son, "Why don't you keep a close eye on your wife!"

Father He said coldly, "Who told you that everyone in the entire Flower Kingdom is good!"

Which region in the country has good people? Which region has bad people?

Are all people in Beijing good people?

“Beijing…” Mother He wanted to retort.

"Can you guarantee that everyone in Beijing is a good person?!" Father He looked sternly at his wife.

Mrs. He was put in an awkward position by her husband's question. She never expected her husband to say such things to her in front of outsiders.

Mrs. He looked very upset. "I didn't say anything. I just heard it from other people."

"Who told you that? How could a government official have such discriminatory thoughts about regional differences? I think this person has a problem with their thinking!"

Lin Xiaoyan's expression was a little unpleasant, but upon hearing He's father's words, she inwardly gave him a big thumbs up!
Anyone who discriminates based on region is truly mentally unstable.

Where are there no bad people? Where are there only good people?

You can't condemn an ​​entire place just because you encounter bad people there!

Just then, Aunt Zhang came out. Unaware that something was wrong, she smiled and said, "Dinner is ready."

Old He looked at Lin Xiaoyan and asked, "Xiaoyan, are you hungry? Shall we go eat?"

Lin Xiaoyan: "Okay, Grandpa."

He Qi'an pulled Lin Xiaoyan up, "Let's go to the restaurant for dinner."

They ignored the embarrassed Mrs. He sitting on the sofa and all went to the dining room.

Mrs. He looked pale and watched them all leave in disbelief. She felt a tightness in her chest and didn't know whether to stand or sit.

Lin Xiaoyan walked to the restaurant and found that He's mother hadn't come over. She looked at He Qi'an worriedly and reminded him.

He Qi'an's face was somber. "It's alright, you can sit here."

He noticed, of course, that his mother hadn't come over, but he felt uneasy. He thought that even if his mother disliked it, she wouldn't show it today.

Lin Xiaoyan glanced at Grandpa He and Father He, who had sat down on their own, and nudged He Qi'an, telling him to go and call Mother He, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

He Qi'an was a little reluctant, but he still went over to his girlfriend and said, "Mom, come and eat."

Seeing Lin Xiaoyan's actions, Mr. He and his father felt comforted and even more satisfied with her.

Hearing her son call her name, Mrs. He's expression finally softened, and she got up and went into the dining room.

However, her expression remained unpleasant when she saw Lin Xiaoyan.

For the rest of the time, Mrs. He did not say anything more. She finished her meal quickly with a cold face, then said that she had work to do and left.

After Mother He left, the tense atmosphere finally eased a bit.

Lin Xiaoyan should also relax a bit.
