At the main table.
Ye Maoshan looked at his disappointing young brat and pursed his lips. He turned to Ye Lan and whispered, “Was he so enthusiastic when I turned 60?”
He continued, “I remember he was half an hour late that day. He’s more concerned about Nian Nian’s birthday than anyone else!”
Hearing his sour tone, Ye Lan was caught between laughter and tears. “Dad, don’t be jealous. It’s not like you don’t know his character. As long as he can marry Nian Nian, I’ll burn incense and pray to Buddha in the temple!”
Initially upset, Ye Maoshan quickly returned to his senses. He smacked his lips and ridiculed her impolitely. “That’s true. I can’t ask for too much from a freeloader like him. As long as I can have a granddaughter-in-law, I’ll wake up laughing every day.” He could not help but smile when he said this as if he was drinking at a wedding today.
Ye Lan continued, “I wonder who the witness this kid prepared for Nian Nian is? Did he reveal it to you?”
Old Master Ye’s happy mood soured. “I’m angry at the mention of this! I looked for Old Jiang for 10 days to half a month and was about to convince him to be Nian Nian’s witness. In the end, this young brat interfered and arranged for someone else to do it. This young brat… can just be expelled from the family!”
Ye Lan was truly amused. She quickly soothed his back. “You’ll know when you see it.”
After all, today was a good day.
Old Master Ye was not as angry as before. He stared at the stage with clear eyes and soon saw a few people pushing a 10-tier cake to the front.
He immediately realized that the person pushing the cake looked a little familiar. “That’s…” He patted Ye Lan’s shoulder and pointed at the leader.
The 40-ish woman had been sick all year round and did not look too good. Her skin was slightly dull and sallow, but her facial features were upright and elegant, forming a style of its own.
Old Master Ye did not recognize Xie Tingyun.
However, he stood up excitedly when he saw the person beside her. “Is that E-Elder Feng?”
Feng Yu looked more like an ordinary person than Xie Tingyun.
A height of 1.7 m was neither tall nor short. His skin was dark and he looked ordinary. If he had not come in with Xie Tingyun, people would have mistaken him for an ordinary old man.

However, everyone at the event location was as excited as Old Master Ye when they saw him.
“It’s actually Elder Feng!” On the right-hand side of the main table, Master Cheng from the Ninth Branch stood up excitedly like Ye Maoshan, his eyes flashing.
Bo Jingxing had been to the independent continent before and knew Feng Yu. Just as excited, he turned to the others from the Ninth Branch to explain Feng Yu’s identity. Feng Yu, the independent continent’s First Research Institute’s dean, was enough to look down on most people in Beijing.
People like Feng Yu rarely left his mountain.
He rarely even appeared at such social events in the independent continent. Today, he actually came to Beijing to be a witness to Qiao Nian’s coming-of-age ceremony! What a scene!
It was apt for Qiao Nian!
“Why are you here?” Qiao Nian also saw the three people pushing the cake in.
Other than Xie Tingyun and Feng Yu, Ji Nan had also come.
Ji Nan looked at her, clasped his hands behind his back, smiled gently, and said, “Young Master Ye asked us to come. It’s your birthday, so how can we not be here?”
“Aunt is your elder, and Elder Feng is your teacher. As for me…” Ji Nan did not hide it anymore. He was clearly telling Qiao Nian that he already knew. “I’m your family.”
