A week passed in the blink of an eye. Shen Ye had been waiting not for a call from Su Li, but for one from his grandfather, which ultimately prompted his return to Haining.
Elder Shen had summoned him back because a family banquet was being held that weekend—a rather significant one. Mu Haiyang’s parents were coming to visit in person to finalize the union of the two families. They needed to discuss and negotiate the specifics of Mu Haiyang and Shen Yi’s marriage, including wedding preparations, dowries, bride prices, and the date of the ceremony.
