Bai Peiluan didn’t care: “If it’s not over there, then move our seats over there. Can’t you be flexible about this kind of thing?”

After saying this, she didn’t care about the difficulties of the staff, and walked straight towards Bai Lanwu, insisting on sitting at the same table with Bai Lanwu. The two sisters chatted at the table without any signs of estrangement. The sight of them made the wives of government officials, who were privately feeling sorry for Bai Peiluan, in shock. This could be described as an award-winning level of acting, as there was no visible sign of discomfort on her face.

However, Ye Baixiu felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

He glanced at Song Chuanqi several times but quickly averted his gaze, displaying a dignified but uneasy mentality.

Upon noticing that her husband was not initiating a conversation with his father-in-law, Bai Peiluan secretly kicked Ye Baixiu.

What’s going on? Isn’t this his father-in-law? Didn’t Bai Xiu know to take the initiative instead of putting on a lofty front as the Ye family’s head?

...

“Baixiu, these are Starlight’s parents. I had no idea before that Starlight’s mother is my younger sister. It wasn’t until we visited her dad in the hospital that the two of us, as sisters, came to realize that our brother-in-law was also our father-in-law. Lan Wu, this is my husband.”

“Nice to meet you, brother-in-law,” Bai Lanwu was a somewhat embarrassed, as this was the man she had once run away from marrying.

Ye Baixiu was even more embarrassed than her. Hence, he maintained a stern face, and responded with a curt nod.

Unsatisfied, Bai Peiluan kicked Ye Baixiu again and whispered, “What’s with your attitude? A smile upon meeting is basic courtesy!”

“I’m not someone who naturally smiles,” he replied.

Ye Baixiu was feeling very awkward. He didn’t really want to share a meal at the same table with Song Chuanqi, but he really had no choice. To make things even more awkward, he had to break the silence, “You’re looking pretty good. How have you been recovering lately?”

“I’m doing well, how about yourself?” Song Chuanqi responded, his gaze never leaving Ye Baixiu.

Ye Baixiu fashioned a stiff smile and said, “Good, good. You’re doing well, I’m doing well. The Ye family is doing even better. I have two sons, one took the Ye family to the pinnacle of finance, the other took the family to the peak of power. The Ye family is now the most powerful family in the capital city.”

Bai Peiluan quietly huffed, “Stop showing off. Can’t you just have a normal conversation?”

Does he really need to make the gap between the two families so obvious?

Bai Peiluan already felt guilty and her husband’s comments just made things worse. She was ready to explode!

Ye Baixiu was frustrated. He thought he was simply stating facts, not showing off. In his view, the Ye family had brought honor to all under his leadership, a truth that his father-in-law surely must appreciate.

Upon seeing the current glory of the Ye family, Song Chuanqi smiled and nodded approvingly, “You have indeed raised two outstanding sons. The Ye family’s recent upward climb is largely thanks to you. I’ll toast you with tea instead of alcohol.”

With these words, Song Chuanqi lifted his cup of tea, motioning a toast towards Ye Baixiu.

Ye Baixiu raised his tea cup and clinked it against Song Chuanqi’s. “You also…have worked hard. After finishing this drink, I’ll punish myself with three more.”

True to his word, Ye Baixiu took three swigs of red wine after finishing his tea.

Bai Peiluan couldn’t stop him, “Drink less, the banquet has not even started, and you’re already drinking so much. Be careful not to get drunk. You have high blood pressure and have been told not to drink alcohol, what’s the reason for drinking so much now?”

Ye Baixiu insisted, “Father-in-law has come to the capital for treatment, and I haven’t been able to visit him at the hospital due to various reasons. It’s only right that I punish myself with three drinks. Don’t stop me.”
