Chapter 1782 - 405: Peerlessly Outstanding, Talent Shocks the Hall (Part 2)
"Sister Yun Ya." Yan Ke walked over with a smile, exuding youthful charisma, exceptional elegance, and indeed carrying a touch of Yan Song’s spirit.
Yun Ya was momentarily dazed.
Yan Ke tilted his head, laughing playfully: "I know I’m quite handsome, but you don’t have to be so starry-eyed...."
Yun Ya rolled her eyes at him and walked forward, and in that split second, she thought of Brother Yan...
The brothers were looking more and more alike.
Yan Ke caught up in a few long strides, beaming: "Did you mistake me for my brother? He’s been gone so long, Sister Yun Ya, if you’re lonely...you can think of me as him, I wouldn’t mind, haha...."
"Can’t expect ivory from a dog’s mouth." Yun Ya waved her phone: "I recorded everything you just said; I’ll play it for your brother when he returns. Have you thought about how you’d like to die?"
With that, she raised an eyebrow triumphantly, finally showing a bit of youthful vibrancy.
"No way." Yan Ke’s face immediately fell: "Dear sister, you set me up."
"Serves you right for talking nonsense." Yun Ya glanced at him, sizing him up, then suddenly punched him, taking Yan Ke by surprise, causing him to stagger backward.
Yun Ya laughed heartily with hands on hips: "With that frame of yours? You’re far from being your brother’s match."
Yan Ke steadied himself, smiling with a smirk: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, even if I’m amazing, I won’t catch your eye, but someone will appreciate me. Missing me would be your life’s biggest regret." With that, he pretended to shake his head wistfully.
Yun Ya pursed her lips and turned to leave: "Stop dawdling, grandmother is waiting."
Outside the Zhuang Family’s residence, luxury cars were gathered, and the butler greeted guests at the door, enthusiastically welcoming Yun Ya as she approached: "The old lady has been talking about you both since early morning, Miss Ji, Young Master, please come in quickly."
Yun Ya nodded politely, and gracefully made her way in.
In the main hall, there were indeed many guests; Elder Zhuang and the old lady had students and admirers everywhere, and her birthday party was packed with influential figures from politics, business, and academia.
Yun Ya’s entrance attracted everyone’s attention; if it were anyone else they’d be quite nervous, but Yun Ya walked in with a smile, back straight without a trace of fear, maintaining her poise, calm and collected.
For a moment, all eyes fell on her, captivated by the girl’s beauty and extraordinary presence.
"My precious granddaughter-in-law, my dear grandson, you finally arrived." The old lady squinted her eyes happily, standing up excitedly.
"Mom, stay seated, let the youngsters come to you." Huo Rendong smiled and waved them over, "Come quickly, let grandmother have a good look at you two."
Yun Ya and Yan Ke walked over quickly, kneeling at the old lady’s feet and kowtowed three times: "Grandchild wishes grandmother happiness as vast as the East Sea and longevity like Nanshan Mountain, health and well-being, and may your wishes come true."
"Good, good, good, get up quickly." The old lady nodded her head and pulled Yun Ya and Yan Ke up, looking from Yan Ke to Yun Ya, her fingers touching Yun Ya’s face, she said distressed: "How did you lose so much weight? How is Yueyue taking care of you?"
Zhuang Xiyue bore this grievance innocently.
Yun Ya replied with a smile: "Because I’ve been missing grandmother."
The old lady’s heart melted with happiness at her sweet words, "Good, good, then you’ll stay with grandmother, and she’ll see you every day."
"Seeing cousin and Yun Ya made grandma forget all about me, she’s biased." Zhuang Jingmo pouted.
The old lady held her hand: "Jingmo is also dear to me, you’re all dear to me."
Zhuang Jingmo obediently rested on the old lady’s lap, winking at Yun Ya, Yun Ya smiled and softly called her cousin.
"Madam, is this young lady Miss Ji? Young Master Yan’s fiancée?" Someone asked.
Yun Ya noticed it was a woman of about forty wearing black-framed glasses who spoke. Yun Ya recognized her; she was Xu Yun, a renowned education expert in China, who had published numerous works and hosted a television program, known widely across the country, and she was also one of Elder Zhuang’s students.
The old lady held Yun Ya’s hand with a smile: "Yes, this is Yun Ya, Yun Ya, she is a student of your grandfather, call her Aunt Xu."
Yun Ya nodded obediently and greeted politely: "Hello Aunt Xu."
Xu Yun smiled and nodded approvingly: "Miss Ji has a name heard everywhere, and to achieve such accomplishments at such a young age makes us all humbled."
