Shen Zhilie took one glance at her before entering the kitchen, his lips curled up into a smile .
“Qianqian,” Old Mrs . Shen called out again .
Ye Qianqian’s body tensed up even more . “Yes, Grandmother . I’m here,” she replied .
“Don’t be nervous . Am I very terrifying?” Old Mrs . Shen watched her with a seemingly exasperated look on her face . “Although I might be harsh with you at times, you don’t need to be so afraid when you’re around me . ”
Ye Qianqian laughed . She felt so awkward that she was at a loss for words .
“That’s right, that’s right . I’m afraid,” she thought . “After all, she’s not just ‘a little’ harsh to me . ”
When Old Mrs . Shen saw Ye Qianqian’s reaction, she laughed and said, “You saw my friends just now, didn’t you?”
“Yes, I saw them . ”
“Dongfang is a good friend of mine . We’ve known each other for several decades . She likes you very much . ”
Old Mrs . Shen was referring to Grandmother Dongfang, who had spoken to Ye Qianqian earlier .
Ye Qianqian looked at Old Mrs . Shen .
Old Mrs Shen stared at Ye Qianqian’s face and nodded her head before saying, “You have pretty decent looks, and your face reveals good fortune . I’ve also liked you a lot from the first time I saw you . ”
As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Ye Qianqian’s hands .
Ye Qianqian noticed the Old Madam’s gaze and quickly turned her hands over .
There was a red line on both of her palms . It wasn’t deep . In fact, it was very faint .
Old Mrs . Shen took a closer look . “Hmm?”
Out of shock, Ye Qianqian subconsciously pulled her hands away .
“Let me take a look . ” Old Mrs Shen stood up and walked over to Ye Qianqian .
Ye Qianqian was slightly afraid, and she cowered as she watched Old Mrs . Shen move toward her .
Old Mrs . Shen felt quite unhappy when she saw Ye Qianqian’s reaction .
“What’s there to be afraid of?” she muttered . “It’s not like I’m going to eat you . ”
She reached out her hands and grabbed hold of Ye Qianqian’s wrists .
Ye Qianqian unconsciously opened up her hands, and the faint red line quickly appeared in Old Mrs . Shen’s line of sight .
“It’s faded away . ”
Looking at it, Old Mrs . Shen asked, “How did you get this?”
“I…” Ye Qianqian looked at her palms . “I don’t know . ”
“Besides, did it really fade away? Why didn’t I feel anything?” she thought .
“It’s great that it has faded away . In fact, it’s really great that it has faded away,” the Old Madam said .
“It made me feel as though I were possessed…” Ye Qianqian thought, feeling the hairs rise on the back of her neck . “This Old Madam is dangerous!”
Although Old Lady Shen had only said a few words, Ye Qianqian was already scared to death . She pulled her hand away and glanced at it too . “Has it faded away?” she thought .
Perhaps because Ye Qianqian had been staring at it every day, she didn’t realized that it had hanged much .
Old Mrs . Shen stared at her for a very long time before asking suddenly, “When do you intend to get married?”
“Huh?” Ye Qianqian was unable to respond .
“I’m asking when you intend to get married . Zhilie is no longer young . It’s not good to keep dragging things on . ”
Feeling a little confused, she said, “Didn’t… didn’t you forbid us to get married…”
“Nonsense!” There was a reproachful look on Old Mrs . Shen’s face as she said, “Didn’t you already spend the New Year in our house? Did you think that I would invite any random person to come over to eat and stay in our house? I only allowed you to because you’re my future granddaughter-in-law . ”
Ye Qianqian laughed awkwardly before saying, “Is that so? Haha…”
“What do you think, then?” As Old Mrs . Shen spoke, she pulled out an old copy of the almanac calendar from below the table and said, “Let me look at the dates . Dongfang said that it’ll be suitable for Zhilie to hold the wedding during Spring . It’s not the New Year yet, so we’re just in time to make preparations for this!”
Ye Qianqian merely felt as though she had bumped into a ghost . “This Old Madam changes too quickly!”
However, just when this thought popped into her head, she heard the Old Madam lament, “Since Zhilie is unwilling to listen to me, I might as well allow you guys to get married . You can always get a divorce when you want to in the future . ”
