Jian Yufei could not refuse, so she had to accept.

She gratefully smiled at her great-aunt, feeling inwardly moved. Marrying into the Ruan family, the greatest thing she gained was the affection of the two elders of the Ruan family.

Everyone sat and chatted for a while, until the reliable butler Uncle Zhong came to announce that dinner was ready.

“Let’s all take our seats. We can continue our chat while we eat.” Ruan Anguo said with a smile, just as a servant came in to report that Miss Yan had arrived.

For a moment, the expressions on everyone’s faces varied widely.

Mother Ruan stood up with a smile, “I’ll go see her.”

After saying this, she went out to greet the guest.

The great-aunt glanced briefly at the retreating figure of Mother Ruan, then turned her gaze back to Jian Yufei. When Jian Yufei heard the news that Yan Yue had arrived, her expression did not change in the slightest.

The great-aunt squinted her shrewd eyes and, gripping Yufei’s hand, stood up: “Come on, let’s take our seats. Don’t mind sitting next to this old lady.”

“OK,” Jian Yufei replied with a smile.

She was not good at flattering people, but her smile was always a sincere gesture.

Yan Yue had brought presents, she came to visit the great-aunt.

Before the great-aunt’s family immigrated, Yan Yue often visited the great-aunt. One could say that the great-aunt watched Yan Yue grew up.

After handing the gift to a servant, Yan Yue ignored Ruan Tianling temporarily and instead clung to the great-aunt’s arm, speaking to her with a warm familiarity.

“Great-aunt, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you. When I heard you were back, I rushed over to see you. You haven’t changed a bit over the years, in fact, you seem to be getting even younger.”

Yan Yue had always been sweet-talking. Plus, she was naturally pretty, so when she praised someone, it was always very pleasing.

The great-aunt squinted her eyes, smiling joyfully, “This Yan girl, her words are as sweet as if smeared with honey. However, you are too formal with me. Since I was very close with your grandmother, like sisters, you should call me ‘aunt’ from now on.”

The terms “aunt” and “great-aunt” did carry different implications. It was indeed not Yan Yue’s place to call the great-aunt as such. She used to call her that because she was Ruan Tianling’s girlfriend.

Now that Ruan Tianling is married, she naturally could not continue to call her ‘great-aunt’.

Yan Yue’s eyes flickered, she chirped: “I’ve grown accustomed to calling you ‘Great-aunt’. I think I’ll just keep calling you that.”

Ruan Anjia smiled but remained silent, one hand holding Jian Yufei, the other hand holding hers.

“Come sit with me, have you eaten yet? Join us for dinner.”

Yan Yue happily agreed. However, when they sat down, she was placed on Ruan Anjia’s left, while Jian Yufei was on the right. To the right of Jian Yufei, sat Ruan Tianling.

The Ruan family used a round table for meals, so seating arrangement didn’t hold much significance.

After the meal officially started, Ruan Anguo occasionally chatted with his sister. Yan Yue also joined in. Most of the conversation revolved around the great-aunt, so she didn’t get a chance to talk with Ruan Tianling.

Halfway through the meal, Ruan Anjia nudged Jian Yufei beside her, pointing to a dish of braised eggplant and told her, “I haven’t tasted that dish in many years. Would you get me some to try?”

“Sure.” Jian Yufei took a clean pair of chopsticks and a spoon, reaching out to serve the dish.

She was wearing a soft knitted sweater today. When she stretched her arm, the sleeve slid up a bit, revealing her fair wrist, and the green jade bracelet on her left hand.
