Chapter 1173 What the elders meant was

htly because of her head shake. 。"Pei Jinchu is right, I will definitely protect you" 。Once all things are resolved, you will be free. 。Then, no one will treat you as a panacea anymore, nor will anyon..."Hmph, I'm not afraid." Holly scoffed.

Daisy no longer wasted words with Holly, but gracefully walked downstairs.

When Holly saw this, she followed him.

This time's dim sum was all Chinese cuisine. The housekeeper specially instructed the kitchen to prepare it for Qin Nianxia and Leng Yanchen, and even changed the cutlery from forks and knives to bowls and chopsticks.

Leng Yanchen could tell that this elderly couple clearly cherished Qin Nianxia very much.

At least Qin Nianxia wasn't too pitiful. Although she lacked paternal and maternal love, she still had her grandparents spoiling her here.

At that moment, Daisy spotted the Oriental man sitting in the dining room as she walked up the stairs.

Men are different from the wild and unrestrained Western men here. They have an innate air of nobility.

After they walked up closer to him, she realized that not only was he extraordinary in appearance, but his features were also handsome and masculine.

Perhaps due to his upbringing, he appeared to be a true gentleman. His conversation with Grandpa Utz held a certain elegance and humility that women found irresistible.

At this moment, Uz saw the two of them coming over and took the initiative to introduce them to Leng Yanchen: "This is my ninth granddaughter Daisy, and my tenth granddaughter Holly."

"Miss Daisy, Miss Holly, it's nice to meet you both. My name is Leng Yanchen," said Cold Yanchen, rising proactively and extending his hand politely to the two ladies.

Daisy greeted him with a smile, shaking Leng Yanchen's hand. "Mr. Leng, nice to meet you. It's a pleasure."

Holly, however, didn't have a good face for Leng Yanchen because he was brought by Qin Nianxia. She ignored Leng Yanchen directly and took the initiative to greet Uzi and Qin Shiyin: "Grandpa, Grandma, good morning."

Uzbek said with a stern face, “Don't you recognize your little sister”

Holly gave Daisy a withering glance and greeted her in a bad mood, "Morning, little sister."

Although Daisy didn't like Qin Nianxia, she wouldn't show her emotions in front of her grandparents. Instead, she smiled at Qin Nianxia and opened her arms: "Little sister, it's been a long time!"

"Good morning, Fifth Sister," Qin Nianxia smiled in response, then got up and hugged Daisy. "Fourth Sister, it's been a long time."

The three sisters, in front of outsiders, put on quite the show as "plastic sisters."

Although they dislike each other, they are willing to sit at the same table and eat with their grandparents for their sake.

Qin Nianxia followed Leng Yanchen back to the dinner table and sat down.

When the maids served breakfast, Qin Shi Yin instructed them to put all of Qin Nian Xia's favorite breakfast items in front of her.

Although they were having a Chinese meal, they didn't have the custom of sharing dishes. Therefore, all the dishes were served in small plates and brought to each person individually.

"Grandma, I love crystal shrimp dumplings too," Holly couldn't help but complain.

"Miss Ten, breakfast was prepared hastily this time and the chef didn't make too many shrimp dumplings. If you like them, I shall instruct the kitchen to prepare more another day." The butler, standing beside her, explained with a nod.

Qin Shiyin, however, wore a serious expression: "Don't always compete with Xiao Eleven. As the elder sister, you should be magnanimous."

Holly fell silent, a little dejected.

Qin Nianxia had no choice but to take the initiative. She picked up the plate of crystal shrimp dumplings in front of her, stood up, and brought it to Holly's side: "Fifth Sister, I remember that you don't seem to like eating sweet vinegar mushrooms, but I do. How about I trade this with you"

"Thanks!" Holly replied readily.

Qin Nianxia put down the shrimp dumplings and moved the sweet vinegar mushrooms in front of Holly back to her own place.

Leng Yanchen, however, gently placed the small plate of shrimp dumplings in front of Qin Nianxia and said softly, "You eat this portion of mine."

Qin Nianxia looked at Leng Yanchen, her heart warmed. The smile on her face was genuine happiness.

Uz and Qin Shiyin were delighted to see this boy being so kind to their granddaughter.

At that moment, Leng Yanchen inadvertently raised his eyes and glanced at the two elderly people.

Only then did the two elders return a kind and friendly smile to him.

Especially the kindly look in their eyes, it was just like his grandfather looking at Song Yunxi, that feeling of getting more and more comfortable the more you looked.

It wasn't until this moment that Leng Yanchen realized what was going on, and he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

He said that the elderly couple had been sizing him up and asking him questions, wondering what was wrong. That makes sense!

Qin Nianxia didn't notice at all that her grandparents were looking at Leng Yanchen strangely. Instead, she was happily eating by herself.

While she was eating, Leng Yanchen took good care of her by her side.

She choked on her food, and he gave her milk to help.

Even if she had a craving for something, and it wasn't available in front of her, he would have it, and he would bring it to her.

At this time, Uz received a phone call, as if there was something urgent to deal with.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Zi said to Qin Nianxia, "Grandpa and grandma are going out for a while. You two stay here tonight and have dinner with them when they get back."

Qin Nianxia subconsciously looked at Leng Yanchen and asked, "Can I stay, and what about you"

"I'm fine too." Leng Yanchen smiled slightly.

Qin Nianxia only then replied to Wuzi, “Then grandpa and grandma, you all go busy first! I and he will stay here, waiting for you to come back.”

"Great!" Uz jumped up excitedly and went out the door hand-in-hand with Qin Shiyin.

As soon as Uz and Qin Shiyin left, Holly hugged her arms and walked to Qin Nianxia's side, saying, "It's been a long time since we've had a fencing match. Let's spar later"

Upon hearing Holly's words, Qin Nianxia's face stiffened, and she chuckled dryly and replied, "Fifth Sister, I think it's better not to. You know that I always lose and have never won against you."

Holly was a talented athlete, excelling in many of the more physically demanding and sometimes violent sports. This made Lu Ze very afraid of her.

As for Qin Nianxia, every time Holly said she wanted to spar with her in fencing, she was actually taking the opportunity to stab her with her sword, leaving her covered in bruises from sword points.

This way, if grandpa and grandma get mad, Holly can claim she was practicing swordplay with her and that it was an accident on her own.

"After all these years, you haven't made any progress" Holly sneered.

And at this time, Daisy couldn't help but strike up a conversation with Leng Yanchen, trying to find a topic to keep Leng Yanchen away from Qin Nianxia: "Mr. Leng, would you be willing to grace my small tea pavilion with your presence"

"However, I'd love to see Miss Holly's fencing."

Holly, seeing Leng Yanchen's interest in watching her fencing, couldn't help but give Daisy a smug glance and grinned. "You have an eye for talent," she said.

Daisy smiled awkwardly: "Then I'll stay and watch Fifth Sister and Little Sister's fencing match!"

At this moment, only Qin Nianxia was feeling down.

Next, she was going to be "lingchi"ed by the fifth sister. It wasn't just that; there were also two people watching the spectacle nearby, which made her feel even worse.
