Chapter 425 Approval

"That gift you bought that day, you promised me you will give it to me on the day of my wedding. So it's my wedding now and I want that gift. Also, come to my wedding to give it to me or I won't accept it," Jiang Yuyan said, looking into elder emotional eyes with her hopeful ones.

The tears in elder Ming's eyes, those were still holding on suddenly lost the battle and rolled down. Seeing this emotional scene in front everyone felt heavy in their hearts. The man who was being cold for so long and as strong as a rock was sitting there showing the emotions he held back for long.

Jiang Yuyan too couldn't hold back her tears and the same happened with Zhang Jei, Ming Lan and the nanny who was seeing this while standing away from them at the one corner of the living room.

Elder Ming Managed to smile and said, "My Granddaughter is being smart. Is it an effect of being with this young man or you were always like this?"

Jiang Yuyan wiped tears from elder Ming's cheeks and replied looking at him with her teary eyes, "I was always like this, grandpa. I remember you saying that I am smart like you."

All gave out a sigh of relief. Ming Yusheng was happy to see that his father who always maintained a cold face, showed emotions inside that he missed seeing for so long. Zhang Jei was happy too as there were chances that the elder Ming could reconcile with the Lu family.

"Here!" Patting the space beside him. Elder Lu asked Jiang Yuyan to sit there but Jiang Yuyan preferred to stand beside Lu Qiang.

Looking at Lu Qiang, elder Ming said, "Young man, you can sit. Do you want my granddaughter to keep standing just because of you."

"No grandpa. He won't until you approve of him as your grandson-in-law and ask him to sit not because of me but because of who he is."

Seeing his rebellious granddaughter, elder Ming laughed a little and said, "When did I say I don't recognize him as my grandson-in-law."

Everyone looked at elder Ming in a surprise and he spoke again, "I recognised him since the day I saw him holding your hand in front of the whole world."

Hearing it, all were shocked to the bone. No one ever thought elder Ming will say something like this and everyone thought he must be hating to know that Jiang Yuyan was going to be a part of elder Lu's family.

Though it was surprising, there was no change in Lu Qiang's expressions while others sat there speechless with there eyes wide open. Other than Lu Qiang, Jiang Yang was the only person who was not shocked at all. He had the same calm expressions on his face with a slight smile on his lips being ready to watch the expected family drama filled with surprises.

Leaning towards Ming Lan, Jiang Yang whispered, "Now you trust my words?"

Hearing these words, Ming Lan came out of the shock and said while nodding a little, "I do."

Jiang Yuyan blinked a few times and shook her head. "But he was standing here…."

"I wonder, if I was the one to ask him to it?" elder Ming interrupted her and moved his sight to Lu Qiang.

Feeling puzzled, Jiang Yuyan turned her head to look at Lu Qiang, who was standing on her right side, her sight full of question.

Looking back at her, Lu Qiang shook his head as saying 'No'. Jiang Yuyan realized she just got the situation wrong when from what she saw when she arrived in the living room. At that moment, she was way too eager to see through it.

"Cough-cough"

Jiang Yuyan turned to look at the person who coughed. That was Jiang Yang, who was sitting on the sofa on her left side. She realized he was trying to stop her, but she ignored it. Feeling embarrassed, Jiang Yuyan didn't know how to react and elder Ming said, "I think you think of me as a cruel person."

"N-No grandpa. I am sorry." Jiang Yuyan apologized.

Standing up from the sofa, elder Lu stepped towards Lu Qiang and Jiang Yuyan. Looking at both of them, elder Ming said, "I am glad to see how both of you stood for each other."

Elder Ming looked at Lu Qiang and said, "Whatever your woman does, you don't want her to look at fault and being ready to take a blame on her stead, it shows how much the man loves his woman."

Elder Ming was referring to when he thought Lu Qiang planned Jiang Yuyan's presence in the Ming Mansion to convince him to come for the wedding. When Jiang Yuyan was trying to clarify that Lu Qiang didn't call her there, and she came on her own, Lu Qiang stopped her from saying it not caring if elder Ming might take him wrong. For him, she was more important.

Lu Qiang just bowed his head to what elder Ming said while Jiang Yuyan and others felt glad to hear it. Turning to look at Jiang Yuyan, elder Ming said again, "And my dear granddaughter, I appreciate how brave you can be to fight and protect your man's rights. It shows how much you love him but more than that it shows how much you respect him and that's what a man needs from his woman more."

Jiang Yuyan was staring at her grandpa feeling all emotional and not knowing what to say.

"My blessings are always with both of you," elder Ming said.

"Thank you, Grandpa," Jiang Yuyan said while smiling and Lu Qiang was happy to see her. Elder Ming continued, "I am happy that my granddaughter will marry such a good man. That old man raised his grandson to be a great person. He did at least one good thing while spending his life uselessly."

Though elder Ming was mocking his friend elder Lu but one could see it was not hateful but he was saying it with his right as his old friend.
