Tang Yilin’s face shone with triumph as she looked down at Tang Shihan with unmistakable pride.

Tang Shihan, however, only frowned in deep thought and did not even glance her way.

“So fake. You really know how to put on an act!” Tang Yilin ground out between clenched teeth.

Just then, a servant rushed back in.

“Madam, the Yun family has also sent a wedding gift!”

“What? Even the Yun family sent one?”

The old matriarch was stunned.

The Lin family’s influence was about on par with the Tang family’s, and with Lin Lei as a son-in-law, it made perfect sense for them to send a gift.

But the Yun family was the second most powerful family in Yunchuan City. They had always scorned mixing with lesser families, yet tonight they had sent a wedding gift. Why in the world would they do that?

“Quick, quick, invite them in!” the old matriarch said excitedly. This was a chance for their family to establish ties with a major clan!

But the servant replied, “They left as soon as they dropped it off. They said to wish Miss Tang a long and happy marriage, and many children soon.”

Everyone turned to look at Tang Yilin.

Tang Yilin was dumbfounded.

She could understand the Lin family sending a gift, but why had the Yun family done the same?

Tang Yilin looked at Lin Lei.

Lin Lei was a little bewildered too, but he still put on an air of profound mystery. “Ahem. Low profile. Keep it low profile.”

Tang Yilin’s radiance only grew stronger.

“Honey, you’re amazing! Even the Yun family has sent us their blessings!” Tang Yilin threw herself into Lin Lei’s arms.

The relatives immediately began flattering him as well.

“Lei Lei is incredible!”

“I said long ago that Lei Lei wasn’t ordinary. Look at this now—even the Yun family is coming to make ties with us!”

“I think it won’t be long before even the Xu family, the number one family in Yunchuan City, comes to build relations with us!”

“Hahaha, exactly. With Lei Lei’s abilities, that’s only a matter of time.”

The words had barely faded when another servant rushed in, visibly excited.

“Madam, the young lady of the Xu family has sent a wedding gift!”

This time, the whole table exploded.

“What? Even the Xu family came?”

“Damn, I only said it casually, and they actually showed up?”

“Lei Lei, you’re too impressive. You’re the savior of our Tang family!”

The relatives all raised their glasses to Lin Lei and his wife, completely forgetting Tang Shihan’s family, whose wedding would be held the next day.

Tang Shihan’s mother, Lin Yuzhen, sighed and said helplessly, “This is just fate. Some people don’t have to do a thing and still receive heaven’s favor, while our Shihan—sigh.”

Tang Shihan’s father, Tang Dahai, looked displeased. “Shihan, you need to work harder! Your luck can’t compare to theirs. If you don’t become more diligent, what will you have left to stand alongside them in the future?”

At that moment, Tang Yilin did not miss the chance to show off. “Uncle, don’t scold Shihan. She’s worked hard too. It’s just that her abilities only go that far. You can’t force her, can you? Haha.”

Tang Dahai was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

“Hmph! I’m going to the restroom!”

He turned and left at once.

Lin Yuzhen hurried after him, then glanced back to find Tang Shihan still lost in thought and Ye Fengyun still eating.

“Shihan, let’s go,” Lin Yuzhen said softly. “Staying here will only get us humiliated by Tang Yilin’s family.”

Yet Ye Fengyun, still chewing, muttered indistinctly, “Humiliated by what? These things weren’t even sent to them.”

Tang Yilin’s ears were sharp, and she caught that remark at once.

“Oh? Then who were they sent to, according to you?”

“Of course they were sent to me and my wife.”

Ye Fengyun straightened up and wiped his mouth.

In an instant, the entire room fell silent, and then it erupted with deafening laughter.

“Hahahahaha!”

“I’m dying of laughter.”
