As if to verify Elder Xiang’s words, the group of people standing behind him who were pretending to eavesdrop hurriedly nodded.
“Manman, as Xiang Yin’s aunt, I’m so worried about Xiang Yin’s marriage. Although he’s a little older, it’s good to have an older one. When he’s older, he knows how to dote on you.”
“That’s right. Manman, don’t worry. There won’t be any war between the rich and powerful here. We’ll definitely prioritize you first.”
“That’s right. The other families are always fighting with each other. I don’t know what’s there to fight about. We’re all family.”
The overall atmosphere of the Xiang family was indeed very harmonious. Compared to the Gu family, this kind of harmony was really rare.
However, it was a pity that she was only an existence used to deal with his elders. In the face of such words, in order not to disappoint these people, she nodded.

When Xiang Yin heard this, his hand that was holding the cup trembled slightly. The hot tea spilled on his hand and it was slightly red from the heat. He did not feel anything.
Because of this sentence, his heartbeat kept speeding up, and even his breathing became hurried.
Lowering his head slightly, his messy hair covered his expression so that he would not lose control in front of others.
However, bitterness quickly lingered in his heart. Unfortunately, all of this was fake. Gu Man was probably only saying this to deal with them.
A bitter smile appeared on his lips. Xiang Yin adjusted his emotions and looked up, but he held Gu Man’s hand tightly.
Gu Man also came back to her senses because of this slight pain.
She had never been good at saying sweet nothings, but the words just now had subconsciously slipped out, as if they had been hidden in her heart for a long time.
Perhaps…
Gu Man came back to her senses because of the voice beside her. Her gaze focused on Elder Xiang. The kind smile on his face no longer existed, and his eyes were red.
At this moment, he was more like an old man.
“Alright, alright. Our Xiang Yin is lucky to have met you. If he dares to betray you in the future, I will definitely chase him out of the house.”
Elder Xiang’s words were serious, and his expression was especially serious. There was no relationship between them. Gu Man was also shocked by his words, but she quickly suppressed her emotions.
This was because she knew very well that today was just a fake show. There would be no outcome for them in the future, let alone upholding justice.
However, looking at the old man’s red eyes, Gu Man still replied gently.
“Alright, Grandpa Xiang. If I’m bullied, I’ll definitely look for you.”
A smile appeared on Elder Xiang’s face again. He stood up from the sofa and nodded heavily at the two of them. His gaze was especially satisfied.
“Alright, you’ve met his relatives today. We won’t delay your date. Manman, remember to visit me often.”

The relatives originally planned to send them off together, but when they reached the door, they were stopped by Xiang Yin.
Now, only Xiang Yin and Gu Man were left. The two of them walked on the stone path, and neither of them took the initiative to speak.
Gu Man looked at the surrounding scenery. It was obvious that it had been meticulously decorated. The old man’s figure appeared in her mind again and she could not help but speak.
“How are you going to explain to Grandpa Xiang if we split up later?”
Xiang Yin opened his mouth but could not say a word.
He really wanted to tell Gu Man that he wanted the two of them to continue this relationship, but he was afraid that he would be too direct and abrupt and make Gu Man afraid. All his words were swallowed back into his stomach, and he could only speak bitterly.
“We’ll see. If we part peacefully, he won’t say anything.”
Gu Man nodded and did not continue to respond to him. However, when she thought of how the two of them were going to split up, she felt inexplicably melancholic.
She exhaled and looked at Xiang Yin, as if she wanted to confirm her thoughts. She stopped in her tracks, and Xiang Yin, who was walking in front, realized that the person behind him did not follow. He also stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Gu Man in confusion..
