I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!

The day finally arrived, and his uncle and aunt came. Oh, and his father, whom he hadn't seen for several years, also came. But the father and son still felt very unfamiliar with each other, and he was a little embarrassed.

However, Ye Feng didn't give the other party a hard time; he remained polite, but there was a hint of distance in his politeness.

When he returned, Ye Feng delivered the gifts to everyone, even giving his cousin a pair of watches.

He had actually planned to deliver it on the day of the meal, but he had forgotten to prepare a gift for his father, and he was afraid that his father would feel embarrassed.

So, Ye Feng gave her the gift as soon as he got back, but he didn't give it to Miao Miao; it was still hidden at the bottom of her suitcase.

For this reason, Ye Feng secretly packed his suitcase this time, just to hide the gift.

Miaomiao was oblivious to everything and didn't notice anything amiss at all. She was even amused when Ye Feng delivered things to her parents.

That day, Miaomiao's mother dressed very beautifully, obviously having made a special effort to look at herself. She wore the bracelet Ye Feng had given her, and would occasionally lift it up to look at it and touch it with her hand.

This made Miaomiao's dad extremely envious. Although Ye Feng had also given him a teapot, and it was even a work by a famous artist, it wasn't something he could easily show off!

The two families met at the agreed hotel. Ye Feng arrived early, and his uncle's family had also arrived long ago, along with his father!

"Time flies! You're getting married soon."

Looking at Ye Feng in his suit, Ye Feng's father sighed. He felt like he didn't even recognize his son anymore. Wearing a suit, he really looked like an adult.

Moreover, he also learned that Ye Feng was making quite a bit of money now, supposedly from writing novels, but he didn't really know how much he was making, and no one had ever told him.

As for Ye Feng's company going public and his net worth now being in the billions, he knew nothing about it and had never paid attention to it. Besides, he was having a tough time right now.

He had actually thought about asking Ye Feng for help, but he just couldn't bring himself to ask. But today, he was going to say it. He had raised him for over ten years, hadn't he?

Everyone had arrived, and Ye Feng had already prepared the drinks and cigarettes. His cousin was helping to carry the drinks.

Miaomiao's family arrived, and her grandparents' family came too. They had all agreed beforehand that today would be considered their engagement, and then they would discuss the wedding date, which would probably be after the Chinese New Year...

Both sets of parents actually hoped to settle things as soon as possible, so they hit it off immediately. As for the young couple separating, they had no objection at all. What's a little breakfast?

"Oh my, Miaomiao's parents are here. From now on, they'll be called in-laws."

The eldest aunt hurried to greet him, after all, she was practically Ye Feng's mother; if Ye Feng's mother didn't come back, she wouldn't dare to come back either.

Ye Feng's father followed behind with a smile. Ye Feng introduced them, and Miao Miao's family, who knew about Ye Feng's situation, greeted them with smiles.

Actually, Miaomiao's mom used to nag Ye Feng's parents a lot at home, but at the same time she was happy because such an outstanding son was practically being groomed for their family!

Although it's impossible for the child to take the surname Su in the future, they will definitely be like their own parents to the two of them!

Just thinking about this makes Miaomiao's mom happy, and she can't help but smile. Seeing Ye Feng's dad makes her smile even more, which makes Ye Feng's dad extremely happy. His mother-in-law is really giving him face!

The crystal chandelier in the private room was dazzlingly bright, and the peony-carved turntable in the center of the round table was slowly turning.

The fresh aroma of steamed grouper and the savory flavor of braised sea cucumber.

Ye Feng had just finished pouring wine for Miao Miao's grandparents when his uncle pulled him away.

"Come on, let's have a drink, you two! You've really made something of yourself these days, finding such a wonderful girl like Miaomiao. Your uncle is so happy for you!"

The glasses clinked gently, making a crisp sound. Ye Feng took a sip and responded with a smile.

"I owe my life to my uncle and aunt's care over the years, otherwise I wouldn't be where I am today."

Aunt was very happy to hear this, but she quickly explained that Ye Feng really hadn't asked her to take care of anything; she had been living on her own, and she felt embarrassed to take credit for it.

The atmosphere became lively. Ye Feng's father held his wine glass, hesitated for a long time, and finally looked at Xiao Feng.

"Xiao Feng, you're writing novels now... I heard it's quite profitable?"

His tone was somewhat hurried, and his eyes held a hint of disappointment.

Ye Feng put down his wine glass, still wearing a polite smile, but although his tone was warm, it also had a somewhat formulaic feel to it.

"It's alright, enough to live on."

The few simple words silenced the room for a few seconds, and the aunt quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Not bad at all, he managed to marry such a wonderful girl like Miaomiao."

Miaomiao's mom quickly chimed in.

"Ye Feng is a really capable kid. We feel at ease knowing that our Miaomiao is with him."

Ye Feng's father's eyes lit up. Si Hu wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't say anything.

"That's good, that's good. It was Dad's fault before, I didn't take good care of you."

Ye Feng picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said softly, "It's all in the past."

They were polite yet somewhat distant, as if a thin veil separated the father and son, and neither of them continued the conversation.

Miaomiao also sensed something and picked up a piece of fish for Ye Feng.

"Eat more, you look so handsome in a suit today, just a little serious~"

Ye Feng turned to look at her, his eyes softening instantly, and a genuine smile appeared on his lips.

"Okay, you eat too, don't just put food on my plate."

Miao Miao's grandparents squinted their eyes as they watched the young couple's affectionate appearance, and Miao Miao's grandmother held Miao Miao's hand.

"Miaomiao, you two must have a good relationship after you get married."

"Don't worry, Grandma, we'll be fine."

As the dinner was nearing its end, Ye Feng's face was flushed from drinking, but he wasn't drunk yet. He quickly gave his cousin a wink.

My cousin immediately understood, quietly left the private room, and came back in a little while later with two boxes.

Ye Feng slowly stood up and faced Miao Miao.

"Miaomiao, meeting you was fate. I want to spend the rest of my life with you!"

Kneeling on the ground, Ye Feng looked intently at Miaomiao, completely ignoring the parents in the private room; his eyes were now only on Miaomiao.

Miaomiao was so excited that she covered her mouth, looking at the exceptionally sparkling diamond ring in the ring box. It wasn't the size of the diamond, but the meaning it represented.

She really didn't expect Ye Feng to pull this stunt today. She had already given up on the marriage proposal, since the two families had already met, which meant the matter was settled.

She really didn't expect Ye Feng to propose to her in this kind of setting. Although it was still as awkward as before, the meaning behind it was really different, since it was in front of both families' parents!

Both sets of parents looked at the two of them with doting smiles, but Miaomiao was so excited that she forgot to speak, which worried Miaomiao's mother to death. She quickly and quietly gave Miaomiao a push.
