Huan Gufeng didn't respond, he just quietly ate his sandwich.

"Gufeng, why haven't you eaten at home for so long? Your father talks about you every day. " Meng Man was still unwilling to give up this rare opportunity.

"I'm full. Dad, I'm going to work. The secretary should already be at the door." Huan Gufeng didn't want to continue this boring conversation, so he stood up and wanted to leave the dining room.

Huan Gufeng replied coldly, causing Meng Man's later words to be thrown back into her stomach. She could only shut her mouth helplessly.

"Dai Wei, sit down. Work is important. Since you don't want to come back, you should find someone to take care of you!" Old Master Huan called Huan Gufeng, who was about to leave, and said this sincerely.

Meng Man's face immediately lit up, but immediately darkened again. She was Huan Gufeng's stepmother now, so how could it be her turn to take care of him?

What's more, Old Master Huan's intention of taking care of Ye Zichen was obvious. He was going to force Huan Gufeng to get married.

Thinking of this, Meng Man became even more dissatisfied!

She had dressed up for so long, but she still hadn't been able to get to him. If Huan Gufeng was married, she would have less chance of seeing him in the future!

"Dad, I got it …"

"You always do this to me. You are no longer young, and the daughter-in-law of my Huan Family cannot be an ordinary person. She must be able to help you with your career, and tomorrow I will send some young ladies of appropriate age over to your side. Choose one of them."

Old Master Huan had always been a hard person to deal with. One of the reasons he wanted Huan Gufeng to come back this time.

"How can this be!"

Meng Man refuted without thinking and attracted Old Master Huan's attention.

"I …" "I just think that men should focus on their careers. Gufeng is someone who has studied abroad, so wouldn't it be too hasty for him to choose someone to be his daughter-in-law?" Meng Man knew she had just lost her composure, but she also didn't want Huan Gufeng to marry too early.

"I hate those foreign sects the most. It's not right for us to fall in love freely, and it's useless for our cause in Huan Family. If you want to enter the Huan Family, don't even think about entering without my permission." Old Master Huan did not allow anyone to question his decision, and Meng Man was no exception.

"Dad, there's no need to go through all that trouble. I came back today to talk to you about this. I'm getting engaged next month!"

In Huan Gufeng's mind, the image of Bing Xia appeared. She looked wronged, but was also strong. Facing her, she would rather offend him than to curry favor with him. Unknowingly, she walked into his heart like this.

"Engagement?"

Old Master Huan and Meng Man asked at almost the same time. Their voices were filled with suspicion.

"Yes, I will ask Uncle Fu to choose a good day for me." With that, he directly looked at Uncle Fu, who was standing respectfully behind Old Master Huan. Uncle Fu was like a family to him, he had spent most of his life together with him.

"Young Master, is that true? If Madame were still alive, she would be delighted to hear the news. " Uncle Fu's mention of Huan Gufeng's mother made the atmosphere turn serious. Especially Old Master Huan, whose expression turned ugly.

"Fu, why are you talking about your wife now? It's been a long time since you've talked about it. Today, you're talking about Gufeng's engagement ceremony. You've really lost your mind." Old Master Huan's tone was reproachful, but also sad. For someone who had been dead for twenty years, he had never married anyone else to replace his wife's position. Even when Meng Man came through the door, it was still the same.

Meng Man's keen eyes noticed a flash of gentleness in Huan Gufeng's eyes when he mentioned the engagement.

After a moment of silence, Old Master Huan said lightly: "I have to find a time to bring your engagement partner home. I have to take a look myself."

As he looked at his father's back, Huan Gufeng knew that what happened just now was his father's acquiescence. This also surprised him, as he thought he would have to waste more time explaining, but now that he thought about it, he still didn't know his father well.

Huan Gufeng stood up again and looked at Meng Man who was still in a daze. He turned around and was about to leave when a disappointed woman's voice came from behind, "Is it true? About your engagement? "

"Yes." This was the first time Huan Gufeng responded to Meng Man. Although it wasn't what she wanted, she didn't feel happy at all, but more importantly, she was sad. She deliberately approached Old Master Huan for Huan Gufeng, but in the past three years, they hadn't talked even three times.

Uncle Fu saw everything and only smiled. He had always suspected that this young madam came with another purpose. A young lady in the prime of her youth would fall in love with an old man in her prime.

The dream was shattered, leaving Meng Man hesitating as to what to do next.

After a long while, she stood up and slowly walked out. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across her eyes. She would like to see which woman could make Huan Gufeng be so attentive!

"Madam, it's Mrs. Chen's number."

The servant respectfully walked in front of her, so she and Old Master Huan had yet to officially marry. However, after three years in the Huan Family, she had already become the mistress of the house. Meng Man was feeling annoyed and did not want to answer, but Mrs Chen was not an ordinary person.

"Mrs. Chen, I'm not coming to play mahjong anymore. I'm not feeling very well today."

"Is that so?" "Mrs. Huan, that's really unfortunate. Two guests came to my house today. I was planning to introduce you to them!"

On the other end of the line, Mrs. Chen sounded a little disappointed.

Meng Man hung up the phone and looked at the door. Huan Gufeng had already left.

She didn't know when she would be able to see him again. She shook her head. Today, she purposely arrived late so that Huan Gufeng could stay at home for a while longer.

Huan Gufeng, who was walking out of the old house, held the steering wheel as he thought about Meng Man's expression just now. Originally, he didn't want to tell his father about the engagement ceremony so early, as Bing Xia hadn't settled it yet. But last night, Meng Man's actions annoyed him a little, so he didn't want to give this woman any illusions.

Only by making this woman give up would he be able to make his father happy. Just last night, when he saw that his father had a lot of white hair on his head, he didn't want to embarrass him.

The news of Huan Gufeng's engagement made Old Master Huan excited. He hurried back to his room and took out a photo frame from a locked drawer. Inside was a beautiful young woman who looked similar to Huan Gufeng.

While laughing, he said, "Feng, did you know? Our son is getting engaged, and you finally have a daughter-in-law. It's been twenty years, and I've solved one of your worries. "
