Chapter 812: Chapter 359: The Reversal of You and Me

River View Courtyard Restaurant.

”Come, everyone, let’s raise a glass together, wishing Sakura and Andrew success in their careers back home!”

”May the two kids be happy and harmonious!”

”Cheers.”

...

Under his girlfriend’s explanation, Andrew quickly stood up, smiling and saying ”thank you” several times.

In the crisp and pleasant sound of glass clinking, Xie Shuyu finished off the remaining red wine in her glass in one go.

She then began chatting with Andrew and Sakura about Shanghai and work, occasionally explaining a few things to other relatives.

The main reason her parents brought her here today was that among all the relatives, she was the only one who could communicate fluently in English.

And she had previously worked in Shanghai.

With her around, the atmosphere could be more harmonious.

Otherwise, with only Sakura acting as the go-between, it might be a bit awkward.

Aunt Zeng Yan smiled broadly, adding the information she knew from the side.

Something about top consulting firms, Fortune 500 foreign companies, being engaged in customer management work...

After speaking about her daughter, she began to praise her future son-in-law Andrew.

Every now and then, she would mix in a few phrases of Chinglish to chat with Andrew, regardless of whether he could understand or not.

Their family had poured so much effort into their daughter, especially during her years of studying abroad, really scrimping and saving to support her.

Now, she finally made a name for herself and even brought back such a good boyfriend; she felt especially excited and emotional.

Later on, she even started planning which nationality their children would have in the future, specifically asking for Xie Shuyu’s opinion.

When the topic veered into ”marriage” and ”childbearing,” worried that it might involve her, Xie Shuyu casually brushed it off, stood up, and walked toward the restroom.

Watching her departure.

Zeng Yan patted Mrs. Xie’s hand earnestly and said, ”Sister-in-law, when you and my brother have some time, try to persuade Yu that she should indeed look for someone. It’s good to have a companion in the future, otherwise it would be very lonely.”

Mrs. Xie glanced at her and shook her head, ”Our Yu has always been a very determined person, if you have the ability, you can try persuading her.”

”Sigh—” Zeng Yan laughed awkwardly, ”Then never mind.”

She only wanted to take this opportunity to brag a little about her daughter.

She had just brought up the subject, asking whether there were any plans for a relationship, and was already met with a cold face from Xie Shuyu.

If she were really made to speak face-to-face with Xie Shuyu, she definitely wouldn’t dare.

”Buzz buzz buzz—”

The ringtone of a phone sounded, accompanied by a strong vibration.

”It’s Yu’s phone call.”

Mrs. Xie glanced at the phone in her daughter’s place.

The caller ID was [@Tang Song].

She knew her daughter’s habit, where important people to her would have an @ symbol added in front, akin to pinning them in the contacts.

This habit started back in high school.

Generally, those given this treatment were her parents, family members, and close friends.

A glance at this name, it’s clearly a guy, and her daughter had never mentioned him, yet there’s a symbol in front.

This unusual behavior instantly piqued her curiosity.

But she was accustomed to not picking up her daughter’s calls, as it might involve privacy.

She picked up the phone and pressed the volume button.

Soon, the phone went quiet, as the other side hung up.

After a while.

”Buzz buzz buzz—” The phone rang again.

Still [@Tang Song].

Zeng Yan, who was chatting, said, ”Sister-in-law, Yu’s phone is ringing again. Why don’t you pick it up? She’s not at the company now, what if it’s something urgent.”

”You’re right.” Mrs. Xie picked up the phone, hesitating as she answered it.

Immediately, a young and magnetic voice came through the receiver: ”Hello, Sister Shuyu, I’m coming to Quan City tonight to hang out with friends. I heard from Sister Yourong that you’re at the River View Courtyard Restaurant. I’m on my way there now, and I’ll be there in a few minutes. I want to see you; there’s something important I need to tell you.”

Mrs. Xie’s heart skipped a beat; her daughter was indeed up to something!

She had known Jiang Yourong, that girl, for a long time - a university professor who was steady in doing things.

She would never casually disclose their family gathering’s location to others.

This young man was able to get the information from her and was even pinned by Yu; their relationship must not be simple.

Great! Great! It’s like seeing a miracle bloom!

Maybe in the future, she really might get to hold a grandson or granddaughter!

Mrs. Xie beamed, ”You’re looking for Yu, right? She’s in the restroom, I’ll ask her to call you back when she returns!”

Tang Song was momentarily stunned on the other end, ”Oh, okay, sorry to trouble you.”

”No trouble at all, no trouble at all!”

She hung up the phone.

Beside her, Zeng Yan asked in surprise, ”Sister-in-law, whose call was that that made you so happy.”

”A friend of Yu’s, saying they’re coming over to find her, and will be at River View Courtyard soon.”

”Oh?” Zeng Yan raised her slender eyebrows, keenly identifying the key point, ”A guy?”

”Yes, indeed!”

Upon hearing this, seeing Mrs. Xie’s expression, other people’s curiosity was also sparked, and they began to ask questions.

”Su’e, could it be that Yu is dating someone?”

”What’s the situation? Is Yu’s boyfriend coming to join us for dinner?”

”No way? My sister has a partner?”

Mrs. Xie quickly shook her head, ”Don’t let your imagination run wild, otherwise Yu will be angry later.”

...

”Splashing sound—” The tap was turned on.

Xie Shuyu washed her hands and tidied her attire and hairstyle in front of the mirror.

Just after stepping out of the restroom, she heard the bustling conversations in the banquet area behind the screen.

Amidst them, her name was even mentioned.

Frowning slightly, Xie Shuyu strode inside.

With her appearance, the dining table suddenly fell silent.

Mrs. Xie quickly stood up and said, ”Yu, a guy named Tang Song just called you, saying he’s coming to find you at River View Courtyard.”
