Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Important Guest Visit (1)
Su Fan knew immediately that Lu Rui had an issue with Ye Miaoshan’s previous comments.
He hastily smoothed things over, “Brother-in-law, Miaoshan didn’t mean that. She’s just too anxious. She might have spoken too harshly. Let me apologize to you on her behalf.”
With a disgruntled expression, Ye Miaoshan said, “If you don’t know, then forget it. We’ll ask someone else.”
She had flown from Yuncheng to Shangjing City to ask for their help in person, only to be turned down.
Not to mention the earful she got from Lu Rui—now she felt completely out of sorts.
This is no way to treat relatives.
Su Mian’s complexion wasn’t looking great either. She directly said, “I have guests coming later, so it’s inconvenient for you to be here. Let’s gather later in the evening.”
The implication was that they should leave for the time being.
Su Mian wasn’t trying to drive them away; she indeed had guests coming later.
However, Ye Miaoshan took it as Su Mian issuing an eviction order, and with a cold face, she stood up, “Since you’re not welcoming us, we’ll leave first.”
Su Mian furrowed her brows, “I’m not unwelcoming you. I’m asking you to leave first for your own good.”
She was afraid that her brother’s family, upon seeing the guest, might overstep their bounds and offend the guest, with serious consequences to follow.
Ye Miaoshan retorted, “Are we that disgraceful to be seen with?”
The Su Family was a big household in Yuncheng. Anyone who met them would show them some respect.
Su Mian’s actions made her feel like they were a bunch of relatives who couldn’t be shown in public.
Su Mian explained, “This guest’s status is extraordinary. Neither the Su Family nor the Lu Family can afford to provoke them.”
Ye Miaoshan scoffed in her heart.
What kind of influential person could the Lu Family know? Someone even the Su Family couldn’t afford to provoke?
She probably was being deceived again.
Just as Ye Miaoshan was about to leave with her husband and son, the guest Su Mian mentioned arrived.
A woman of dignified bearing and beautiful appearance walked in.
Upon seeing the woman, Ye Miaoshan’s pupils suddenly jerked in shock.
Could it be…
That’s impossible.
How could the Lu Family possibly know her?
It must be someone who looks similar.
Seeing the newcomer, Su Mian could no longer afford to argue with Ye Miaoshan and promptly went to greet her, “Mrs. Li, welcome to our home.”
“Don’t be so formal. Our children are so close, I should have come for a visit long ago.”
Mrs. Li’s amiable demeanor made Su Mian feel more at ease.
To be honest, when Mrs. Li called to say she was coming for a visit, Su Mian was shocked.
Ye Miaoshan stared blankly at Mrs. Li.
Li…
Could it really be Mrs. Li of the Li Family!??
The same Li Family who even the Zhou Family gives way to with great respect?
No…can it be?
Naturally, Ye Miaoshan knew about the Li Family; or rather, who didn’t know the Li Family?
They were the top-notch wealthy clan, with countless people wanting to curry favor with them. But the Li Family was low-key and almost no one could get close to them.
Mrs. Li was an international movie star before marrying Mr. Li, and their lavish wedding made a sensation around the world at the time.
Ye Miaoshan also recognized Mrs. Li’s face from the news.
It had never occurred to her that such an untouchable person would suddenly appear in the Lu Family’s home!
This left her greatly shocked!

Why would such a prestigious figure come to visit the Lu Family?
Shouldn’t it be the Lu Family visiting them?
The Lu Family is even worthy of a personal visit from Mrs. Li?
Su Qingyan did not know who the stunning lady was, hence he didn’t share his mother’s surprise. Su Fan, however, was also shocked.
Since when did the Lu Family get involved with the Li Family?
He was utterly perplexed.
But he didn’t think as much as Ye Miaoshan did.
While Su Mian was talking with Mrs. Li, Ye Miaoshan asked Su Fan in an almost inaudible whisper, “Why didn’t you tell me that my big sister knows someone from the Li Family?”
Su Fan replied, “I only found out about it today.”
Ye Miaoshan was taken aback for a moment and then frowned with dissatisfaction, “Even this kind of thing is kept from us, why is big sister like this.”
Su Fan didn’t immediately understand, “Why does she need to tell us if she knows someone from the Li Family? What does it have to do with us?”
Ye Miaoshan criticized him with exasperation, “You really are hopelessly stupid.”
Su Fan was puzzled.
How was he stupid?
It was completely baffling.
Ye Miaoshan was almost green with envy, how come Su Mian could know someone from the Li Family, and she couldn’t?
Clearly, the Su Family and the Lu Family were equally matched in strength, with the Su Family even having a longer history as an established clan.
The relationship between the Lu Family and the Li Family wasn’t as close as Ye Miaoshan had imagined; even Su Mian herself wasn’t clear on why Mrs. Li was so friendly towards her.
In the end, it could only be attributed to the close relationship between Qiao Yun and Li Miao, Mrs. Li was being considerate for Qiao Yun’s sake.
And indeed, it was so.
If it weren’t for Qiao Yun,
Mrs. Li probably wouldn’t even spare the Lu Family a glance.
“Where’s Qiaoqiao? I was hoping to see her.” Mrs. Li asked with a smile.
“Qiaoqiao went out, I’ll call her back right now,” Su Mian said, feeling embarrassed to keep the guest waiting.
“No need, I was just asking casually. I quite like Qiaoqiao, she’s obedient, cute, and kind,” Mrs. Li praised lavishly as soon as she opened her mouth.
“I’ve seen so many girls, but I’ve never seen anyone better than her. If such a good girl could become my daughter-in-law in the future, that would be a blessing my ancestors cultivated, and I bet their graves would be puffing out green smoke.”
Su Mian was flustered.
Wasn’t that a bit too much praise…?
Ye Miaoshan snorted at these words.
How could Qiao Yun, who had lived in the countryside for over a decade, possibly be as good as Mrs. Li described? Surely, these were just polite remarks.
“Miaomiao is also very cute and often plays with Qiaoqiao,” Su Mian truly appreciated Li Miao.
After all, given Qiaoqiao’s personality, if Li Miao hadn’t taken the initiative to befriend her, she probably wouldn’t have any friends by now.
“That child is always so rough and rowdy, nowhere near as good as Qiaoqiao. Your daughter is the good one.”
“Not at all, Qiaoqiao isn’t as great as you say.”
“Don’t be so modest. Such a good child, when she grows up, remember to reserve her for me as a daughter-in-law.”
Mrs. Li half-joked, “Don’t look at how Han Zhou doesn’t talk much, but he’s actually quite considerate.”
Su Mian agreed, “Mr. Li is indeed excellent.”
Mrs. Li heard this and her eyebrows lifted in surprise.
Well now.
Turns out her naive eldest son had already ingratiated himself with the in-laws, sparing her the flattery.
She hadn’t believed in Li Hanzhou’s feelings for Professor Qiao until she learned that he performed surgery on Lu Zhanxing for Professor Qiao.
Then she knew.
Her son was set on Professor Qiao and no one else.
As a mother, there wasn’t much she could do but to speak a few words in favor, which now seemed unnecessary.
However, the main reason for her visit today was actually for Professor Qiao.
Just that she didn’t get to see her…
Ye Miaoshan had been quietly listening to their conversation.
Hearing Mrs. Li’s intention to have Qiao Yun as her daughter-in-law, she was filled with incredulity.
Wasn’t that being overly polite?
The threshold for becoming the Li Family’s young mistress was so low?
Then her daughter could too.
