His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 520

Chapter 520 - LunChapter At The Jin Family’s Old House Part III

Huang Yuyan and Grandma Li’s eyes widened after hearing that most of the souvenirs came from Wei Lan.

"Please say thank you to Madam Wei Lan," Huang Yuyan said. "Oh, I should probably start calling her Vizcondesa Lan now!"

Someone from the branch families snorted in derision. Just as how Iris Long was unpopular to them, her mother Wei Lan was also thought of badly by many people among high society.

Both Grandma Li and Jin Liwei looked at their direction with cold eyes. Their expressions were almost identical. Indeed, they were grandmother and grandson.

Iris pretended that she didn’t hear the rude sound. Although her expression remained generally pleasant, her eyes narrowed and turned cold as well.

Grandma Li gave a cold glare at the branch families before smiling warmly at Iris.

"We’ve already met your father and Madam Yang Jiahui but not your mother. Yuyan my dear, how about we invite the viscountess for a meal?"

"Mother, that would be lovely!"

Iris smiled at the two older women. "I’m sure my mother would be delighted."

After the eventful greetings and tense introductions in the front hall, they all headed to the dining area for lunch.

"Is Brother Chonglin not coming today?" Iris asked while they were walking.

"Oh, he’s supposed to come but he called early this morning to say that he wouldn’t be able to because of schedule issues. It looks like his work today got delayed," Huang Yuyan explained.

"We’ll be able to see that boy tomorrow. Don’t worry, Xiulan my dear. If that boy doesn’t attend the grand launch tomorrow, I’ll make sure to lecture him well and teach him a lesson. Leave everything to Grandma, alright?" Grandma Li assured.

"Thank you, Grandma Li," Iris replied.

Lunch was even more awkward and tense than during the introductions earlier. Huang Yuyan was a good host and tried to make the weird atmosphere more pleasant even though she felt displeased by the branch families unexpected presence. As for Grandma Li, she completely ignored them. The matriarch focused on chatting with Iris and Jin Liwei instead.

Thus, it felt like everyone was eating in two different places because of the clear division between the two groups. The main family plus Iris on one side while the branch families on another side.

This made the branch families resent Iris even more.

Iris just ignored them and temporarily erased their existence from her mind. She and Jin Liwei visited the old house to eat lunch with Huang Yuyan and Grandma Li, not with them.

After lunch, everyone headed to the nearest lounge area to drink some digestive tea.

This time, Jin Chenggong and the others ones who worked for Jin Corporation pulled Jin Liwei to speak about some business matters.

"Go ahead. I’ll stay here and chat with Auntie Yuyan and Grandma Li," Iris told him.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

She nodded.

"If you want to leave, just tell me anytime. Okay, love?"

"Okay. Now go."
