She became the center of attraction and attracted everyone’s stares. She frowned to herself when she saw all those unfriendly stares and felt as though she couldn’t breathe.
“Ignore them, let’s go!” Ye Hao clearly sensed the unfriendly stares around them too but he didn’t care. He did not give a thing about those people.
He put his arms around He Xiyan’s shoulders and the corners of his lips curved into a cold smile.
He Xiyan’s heart raced and her fingers twisted together tightly. She was suddenly thankful that she didn’t bring Yuan Yuan along, otherwise, those people would gossip even more about her.
They arrived at the entrance of the main courtyard and Ye Hao’s lips curved into a small smile.
“Grandma…” He called out softly and took that elderly madam’s hands in his. He didn’t say much but only said a few polite greetings.
The elderly madam smiled brightly and she suddenly looked as though she was several years younger. She looked up at her grandson who was much taller than her and her hands clutched his sleeves tightly.
“Come closer, let me have a look at you. Oh dear… why have you gotten so thin?” The elderly madam looked appraisingly at her grandson from head to toe. She missed him greatly.
He Xiyan smiled awkwardly at the side. This was the first time she was here and it was also the first time she met Ye Hao’s other relatives. She felt very uncomfortable knowing that she wasn’t welcome in this place.
The elderly madam muttered a few more words to Ye Hao, then her gaze fell on He Xiyan. The moment she saw her, the smile on her face froze and her brows knitted tightly together.
“This is…” She pointed at He Xiyan but her gaze flitted back to her grandson.
“Happy new year, grandma,” He Xiyan quickly nodded and said a polite greeting.
Ye Hao knew that she was nervous and thus his grip tightened on her hand.
“Grandma, she is the woman I’ve married, my wife…” Ye Hao introduced He Xiyan without any hesitation. His voice raised at the word ‘wife’ and the crowd behind them could clearly hear him.
Everyone was shocked!
Ye Hao was married?
How could that be?
The elderly madam’s eyes suddenly widened in disbelief and she took a second look at He Xiyan, then her gaze returned to her grandson. She rubbed her ears, afraid that she misheard him earlier.
“Who did you say she was?”
“She’s your granddaughter-in-law. We have already registered our marriage, grandma…” Ye Hao repeated his sentence once more. Then, he took her hand and walked toward the main courtyard without looking at anyone at all.
He found a resting area and made her sit down to rest for a while. He would handle the rest of the matters.
The Ye family was all abuzz in the main hall. Although He Xiyan had always kept a low profile, she was married to Mo Yixuan for three years. She had rarely made public appearances during those three years of marriage but she attended several high-society parties and thus, she was recognized by those from the Ye family or the relatives of the Ye family.
“Isn’t that Mo Yixuan’s ex-wife? How did she marry into the Ye family?”
How was that woman so scheming?
It was rumored that she received a huge sum in alimony after divorcing Mo Yixuan. It was probably about a year since their divorce, so how did she meet Ye Hao?
She must have trapped him into marriage, right?
It was rumored that she didn’t come from a good family, so no one knew how she managed to get her foot into the Mo family. She sounded like a troublemaker.
She was neither beautiful nor talented and didn’t even have a good family to back her up. Wouldn’t it be a joke if this woman resided at Pear Garden in the future and became the mistress of the Ye family?
In the main hall, the Ye family who had always thought that they were above the rest and who always emphasized marrying within their social rank all chattered and gossiped about He Xiyan. It was obvious that none of them had a good feeling about her.
