222. Primitive

In the largest private room of The Delights, the atmosphere was quite weird.

''Zhilan, am I overstepping my boundaries? I feel like I shouldn't be here.'' Seven whispered to Li Zhilan as she looked around.

The room had two groups of people, a larger group, that is to say, Li Zhilan's family and a smaller group, that belongs to Qi Longwei. The elders seemd to be getting along quite well. Both families talked to eachother with amicable smiles and gestures. It really didn't seem like the two families were meeting for the first time. Everyone got along with eachother like they were some sort of family friends that never parted.

But the thing that's weird was, no one in these groups took care of Qi Longwei. On the other hand, Li Zhilan was surrounded by everyone as they took care of every little thing concerning her. Even Qi Longwei's sister, Qi Hualing, was treated like a gem by the Kuan family.

''Haize... Such a pretty girl.'' Eldest Madam Kuan said as she patted Qi Hualing's head softly.

''Right. She really is pretty. Say Ling'er, why don't you get married to our princess. See, she is pretty, intelligent, smart and has a strong background as well as a loving family. Our Princess is a total package. Why don't you consider?'' Old master Kuan said as he looked at Qi Hualing seriously. Even the rest of the Kuan family members were looking over in total seriousness making Qi Hualing sweat all over.

It wasn't just Qi Hualing. The rest of Qi family along with Seven were also shocked speechless.

This... This... WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!!!

Li Zhilan: Here they go again~ facepalm

On the other side, Qi Longwei, who was ignored completely this whole time couldn't stand still any longer.

''Grandpa! You can't say this. How can you urge my girlfriend to bend the other side. This is not correct.''

''What 'not correct'? How can you still have such shallow thinking after living in the twenty first century. Such a primitive way of thinking. I should put you in a museum with those dinosaurs and stone aged men. That'll show how obsoleted you are.''

''I... That...'' For the first time in a while, Qi Longwei felt tongue tied. The person who always made others unable to speak could no longer speak himself. If his employees knew this news, they would have lamented not being able to see the scene for themselves. Such a loss for them.

''Alright grandpa. Enough playing around. XiaoLing, Grandpa was just joking. Don't take it seriously.'' Li Zhilan comforted Qi Hualing who had already turned pale.

''Sister, it's not that. I... I'm more scared of my brother...''
