Chapter 968... doesn’t he have parents?

“Yes, I’m planning to have dinner with Xiang Yi at his uncle’s house!”0

Hearing this, Shen Lanzhi paused.

“Go to Xiang Yi’s uncle’s house?”

Shi Nuannuan nodded as if she could hear her mother’s doubt. “Yes, Xiang Yi has been living at his uncle’s house since he was young.”

At the thought of Xiang Yi’s background, Shi Nuannuan could not help but raise her head and look at the man standing beside her. There was a hint of heartache in her black eyes.

Xiang Yi also clearly saw the strange look in her eyes. The heartache was even more apparent in his eyes. He could not help but feel a pang in his heart, and he felt a little choked up.

Hearing her daughter’s words, Shen Lanzhi was slightly stunned for a moment.

Shen Lanzhi was not very clear about Xiang Yi’s family background. She only knew that he was her son’s subordinate and did not have any identity or background.

So, could it be that Xiang Yi was an orphan?

“Mommy?”Seeing that there was no sound on the phone, Shi Nuannuan could not help but call out.

Could it be that her mother despised Xiang Yi’s background?

“HMM?”Shen Lanzhi returned to her senses.

Shi Nuannuan looked up and glanced at Xiang Yi.

Then, she asked her mother on the phone, “What’s Wrong?”

She really wanted to ask, but when she saw Xiang Yi, she could not bring herself to ask.

She didn’t want her mother to look down on Xiang Yi’s family background because of this.

However, her mother knew from the beginning that Xiang Yi was only her brother’s assistant, so she shouldn’t dislike him, right?

Shen Lanzhi came back to her senses and smiled. “It’s nothing. You said that Xiang Yi is staying at Uncle’s house, so he... doesn’t have parents?”

She asked very tactfully because she was afraid that her daughter would overthink things.

Hearing her mother’s words, Shi Nuannuan’s face darkened.

She glanced at Xiang Yi and could not help but turn around. She whispered to her mother on the phone, “Mommy, do you dislike the fact that he doesn’t have parents?”

Shen Lanzhi could not help but pause for half a second before saying, “Of course not. I’m just asking casually. After all, you’re going to marry him in the future.”

Every mother hoped that their daughter could find a good home. Therefore, she wanted to know more or less about Xiang Yi’s family. She could not just marry her daughter to him like that, could she?

“That’s good, Mommy. I don’t want you to look down on Xiang Yi. After all, he is my brother’s most capable assistant!”Shi Nuannuan was still very proud of this!

If Xiang Yi was not outstanding, why would his brother think highly of him?

Shen Lanzhi could not help but chuckle. “Mommy knows that I’m not looking down on Xiang Yi. I just want to understand him. Don’t think too much about it.”

“Okay!”Shi Nuannuan nodded.

“Alright, Hurry up and go eat. Mommy is going to visit Mo Mohe and Lian Lian.”

“Okay!”

“Oh right, remember to bring some gifts when you go. It’s your first time eating, so you can’t lose face.”

Shi Nuannuan’s eyes darted around. She wouldn’t have thought of it if her mother hadn’t mentioned it.

“Okay, I got it!”

“Then I’ll hang up.”

“Okay! Bye, Mommy!”

After hanging up the phone, she turned to look at Xiang Yi and walked over to kiss him on his arm. Then, she raised her head and peered at his exquisite jaw. She wondered if he had heard her mother’s words from her tone, would he misunderstand her mother because of this.

Xiang Yi’s handsome side profile turned slightly. His black eyes looked at her clear, lake-like eyes. “Madam’s phone call?”

“Yes.”She nodded, turned her face away and lowered her head.

Xiang Yi pursed his thin lips and did not say anything else. Instead, he walked out of the pedestrian street with her.
