The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 779 - 761: I’m Not a Slut 72 (Bonus for 400 Monthly Tickets)

Xiao Yuan knew that Uncle Jiang and others from the Jiang family would come over tomorrow, so he specially withdrew cash.

If there were no other people, it would be fine to give a card for the engagement gift, there’s really no need to carry cash over.

But, who asked for the Jiang family members to come.

Xiao Yuan had to support the scene for his wife, as well as his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Anning didn’t care about these things, but bringing actual cash and displaying such an arrangement in front of the other Jiang family members would definitely please her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

It’s not that the father-in-law is petty, but rather Xiao Yuan’s grand display showcases the importance he places on their daughter.

Furthermore, Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang have been oppressed by Uncle Jiang and his group for half their lives. Now, Xiao Yuan uses this to tell the other Jiang family members that Anning’s family is not to be bullied anymore, nor are they poor and unable to speak for themselves; this family has turned their lives around, and they will continue to improve to a point beyond their reach.

Xiao Yuan knows that only in this way will the mother-in-law be extremely happy and in the future, when he visits Anning’s parental home with her, he will receive good treatment.

In addition to cash, Xiao Yuan also prepared a set of gold jewelry.

This is specifically to please the mother-in-law.

Of course, he hasn’t taken it out now, waiting to give it to the mother-in-law tomorrow.

On the fifth day, both families got up early to dress up.

Uncle Jiang and his group also got up early, wore their best clothes, quickly had some breakfast, and then drove to city N.

Mr. Jiang was cautious and did not tell Uncle Jiang their current address but directed them straight to the hotel.

Xiao Yuan happened to have a patient whose family owns a hotel, and Xiao Yuan arranged in advance. On the fifth day, the hotel reserved the best private room specifically for Xiao Yuan.

Notices were given to the chef, who enlisted the head chef to personally cook for Xiao Yuan’s invited guests, truly giving full sincerity.

Xiao Yuan’s family arrived early, at ten o’clock.

When they arrived, Anning’s family was still on the way.

Xiao Yuan called Anning, knowing that it would take about ten more minutes for them to arrive, and he asked Mr. Xiao, Mother Xiao, and the three sisters to rest in the private room while he waited in the hall.

When Anning’s family was about one or two minutes away, Mr. Xiao, Mother Xiao, and others were all in the hall waiting.

Soon, Anning’s family arrived.

The parents from both sides met, Mr. Xiao rushed to shake hands with Mr. Jiang, Mother Xiao took Mrs. Jiang’s hand and talked with a smile, both families chatted and laughed as they entered the private room.

Tea and snacks were already served in the private room, and both families sat down, drinking tea and chatting.

Both sets of parents are sincere people, without any pretensions, and besides, they came with honest intentions, only wishing for the best for their children, without any intention to nitpick.

Not only were they not in the mood to nitpick, but they also thought about building a good relationship with each other, therefore, both sides happily engaged in a lively conversation.

Jiang Anan recognized Xiao Yuzhu, and now she got to know Xiao Yufeng and Xiao Yumei, so the four of them sat together and talked.

Anning and Xiao Yuan sat together chatting with Third.

After roughly twenty minutes, Uncle Jiang and his group arrived.

Those who came today were Uncle Jiang, his wife, the third uncle, the third aunt, as well as Uncle Jiang’s son Haichang, the third uncle’s son Haiyang, along with Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang.

Upon arrival, Uncle Jiang immediately called Mr. Jiang.

Mr. Jiang quickly came out with Xiao Yuan to welcome them.

On the way, Uncle’s wife and the third aunt were discussing Anning’s partner.

They talked non-stop on the road.

Uncle’s wife said, "That second child’s family can really brag, claiming assets worth hundreds of millions and having a National Doctor as their master, as if they are so extraordinary. If that were true, why would it be their daughter’s turn? She should take a good look at herself, see what kind of character and family she has, and whether she could find such an outstanding person."

The third aunt laughed, "Maybe he really is a PhD, perhaps he truly works in a hospital. But he must be quite old, maybe ugly too. I mean, if he were really perfect, would he choose Anning? There must be something wrong, either he’s old or he’s ugly, probably just after Anning for her youth and beauty."

Both of them felt that Anning couldn’t find a good match, and certainly not as great as Mrs. Jiang described the Xiao family.

It wasn’t just them; even Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang thought so, as did Uncle Jiang and the third uncle.

When they arrived at the hotel, Jiang Haichang exclaimed, "It’s set here, it seems Anning’s son-in-law has some capabilities."

Jiang Haichang had worked in N city and later felt that real estate prices in N city were too high and the work too exhausting, so he returned to the county to settle down and start his family.

But Jiang Haichang still knew about Qi’s Hotel.

This hotel was one of the top ones in N city, and securing a banquet hall here was highly challenging; ordinary people could definitely not book a private room here.

Most importantly, today was what day? The fifth day of the Lunar New Year, when hotels were extremely busy, wanting to reserve a private room required connections, or having lots and lots of money.

While getting out of the car, he mentioned this to Uncle Jiang.

Uncle Jiang became much more cautious in his thoughts.

Upon entering the hotel, Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang felt a bit intimidated.

Mainly because the hotel decoration was really high-class, which made Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang, who rarely traveled far, feel really nervous.

In the end, it was the third uncle and third aunt who supported them, preventing them from backing out.

They had just walked a few steps when Mr. Jiang came over with Xiao Yuan.

When Mr. Jiang introduced Xiao Yuan to the Jiang family, they were struck hard, their emotions indescribably mixed.

They had imagined Xiao Yuan to definitely be an old, ugly man, but upon seeing him in person, lo and behold, he was not only youthful but also exceptionally handsome.

Xiao Yuan was indeed quite young, extremely intelligent, advanced in his studies, and had started university at a young age; even after earning his PhD, he was just in his twenties.

Moreover, he was genuinely flawless in appearance, tall and slim, with a perfect figure, typically seen on models, his skin pale and delicate, even better than a woman’s, and his facial features were exquisitely beautiful. Above all, his aura was indescribable.

If Uncle’s wife and the third aunt were educated, they would certainly say, "A gentleman unmatched, as striking as jade."

Sadly, both were not well-educated and couldn’t really describe him properly.

They felt that Xiao Yuan resembled the refined gentlemen cultivated by ancient noble families, akin to an Immortal descending from the heavens.

Xiao Yuan, with a smile, shook hands with Uncle Jiang and the third uncle, and greeted Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang.

At this moment, Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang were almost too flustered to speak.

The key was that Xiao Yuan was too handsome, making anyone feel inferior in his presence, fearing that speaking too much might tarnish him.

When they reached the private room, seeing its setup and all, Jiang Haichang and Jiang Haiyang regarded Xiao Yuan even more highly.
