Chapter 26 – Zhou Family (2)

In fact, Zhou Shiyun rarely attended such occasions because he was not good at doing human things. However, the etiquette classes he had attended since childhood had not been in vain. Even Zhou Shiyun, who was the most derailed member of the Zhou family, could do things ‘by the book’ if he so wanted to.

Old Master Su spoke first, “Zhengxian is very attentive, this white jade chessboard and jadeite are precious goods, I have been searching for them for a long time.”

“It’s good that Grandpa is satisfied.”

Zhao Xueyan said, “Shiyun, it’s too kind of you to bring so many things as soon as you come here.”

“It’s what I should do.” Zhou Shiyun said shallowly.

Su Yundong opened a box in front of him. Inside the box was a set of seven blue and white pastel cups. At first glance, it was an old antique. Su Yundong glanced at Zhou Shiyun. Every gift he gave was specifically bought for someone, his dad loved collecting these things.

The Zhou family understood their family very well.

Su Yundong said, “Young Master Zhou, I heard that you came to take my sister away this time. Is this also your older brother’s intentions?”

Zhou Shiyun looked at him and said, “Miss Su and I have been engaged for a long time, it’s what should have been done a long time ago. Only this time, it is indeed a bit inappropriate to pull her away right before New Year’s.”

“No, no, it’s very appropriate.” Zhao Xueyan hurriedly said, “I’m happy to see that the two of you have such a good relationship. You two really should go back and visit the Old Lady.”

Su Jinbei rolled her eyes secretly, her mom who always nagged her to return home every day when she was not at home, was now saying it’s alright, so excited to send her away.

At this time, the man in black who came with Zhou Shiyun stepped forward and whispered, “Young Master, it’s time to leave.”

Zhou Shiyun raised his hand and looked at his watch, “It’s getting late, we have to go first.”

Zhao Xueyan, “Go, go, hurry and go.”

Zhou Shiyun got up, bowed slightly to everyone, then looked at Su Jinbei.

Zhao Xueyan paused, stepped forward and pulled Su Jinbei, and whispered in her ear after pulling her a little to the side, “Don’t cause trouble at the Zhou’s this time.”

Su Yun looked at her obliquely, “Mom, why would you think that.”

“Show everyone you’re a well-bred young lady, don’t embarrass the Su family.”

Su Jinbei played with her hair, “You don’t need to worry, how can I as the young miss of the Su family not deliver?” After turning around, Su Jinbei grabbed Zhou Shiyun’s arm, “Let’s go, my dear fiancé. “

The two went out the door into the car.

In the back seat, Zhou Shiyun pulled her arm away by her clothed sleeves. Su Jinbei didn’t mind, it’s much better than when he would avoid her before she could even touch him.

“What’s the purpose of this trip to Beijing?”

The driver and butler in the front were silent.

Zhou Shiyun said his eyes were straight ahead, “Just meeting the family.”

“Oh, the legendary meeting of the parents. Oh, yeah, we were supposed to during the engagement banquet but you know how that went.”

Zhou Shiyun paused, not saying a word.

Su Jinbei continued, “Knowing that you have a lot of rules in the Zhou family, I think you should tell me first so that I won’t embarrass myself then.”

Zhou Shiyun looked over at her side, “Don’t worry, there’s nothing big, just follow me.”

Su Jinbei raised her eyebrows, listening to how warm and friendly the words were. Just as she wanted to speak up, Zhou Shiyun continued, “But, your clothes won’t do. After getting off the plane, my assistant will take you to change your clothes. “

Su Jinbei glared angrily. Did he mean she didn’t look good?!

“Sorry, what you’re wearing today is too…” Zhou Shiyun could not find an adjective, and finally said, “Grandma is more traditional.”

He said sorry but didn’t have any intention to apologize in the first place. Su Jinbei looked down at herself. Today, her neckline was indeed a bit too low, the strappy high-heeled shoes was indeed a bit too seductive, and showing off her legs in the winter was indeed a bit… cold.

But for Su Jinbei, this was how she normally dressed!

“Do you mean I have to cover myself up to the chin?”

Zhou Shiyun glanced at her, “It’s not to that extent, just to around the neck.”

“…”

True to his words, Zhou Shiyun really made her change her clothes after the plane landed.

In the dressing room, Su Jinbei looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a handmade Su embroidered cheongsam, and her feet were in exquisite but conservative short heels. She looked as if she travelled back a century.

“Miss, please come with me to get your hair styled,” said the person beside her.

“Okay.” Su Jinbei walked out of the dressing room and sat down in front of the mirror.

In order to cover Su Jinbei’s excessively charming aura, the hairstylist gathered her long curly hair up, and inserted a pastel blue jade hairpin into it as a final touch, adding a graceful and elegant appeal.
