Rules of Engagement

Chapter 54 Family Feast

"It's okay. Janie is not a narrow-minded person. Besides, she doesn't want to be with Chloe." Elsa replied smilingly "But next time, we can go to see little Bun together."

"Okay." Soren nodded and said, "We have to wait until weekend to go to your dormitory to pack up. I hope you won't be asked to work overtime this weekend."

"How about you? Will you be busy on weekend?" Elsa asked. To be honest, she didn't know much about the corporation's trifles. When she chatted with the soldiers, she got different ideas. Elsa guessed that many companies even had different break time because of the differences between departments and leaders.

"Me? Busy some while. Sometimes I couldn't come back once in two months when I was busy. Sometimes when I'm not busy, I have more freedom to arrange my own time. "

Seeing Elsa frowned, he didn't know which of his words irritated her. He thought for a while and said, "Occasions like for me going home once in a month or two is rare. After all, I only deal with it once in a couple of years."

As expected, Elsa stopped frowning. Soren couldn't help but laugh in his mind. His try is right.

When they got back to the company, Soren arranged Elsa to live in his dorm. He knew Elsa's habit. She works or reads some books at night. Therefore, he asked Bob to take all the common stuff from where Elsa lived. In this way, she wouldn't lose anything every time she needed. Although he wanted Bob to remember to get Elsa's pajamas here, but at the thought that Bob had to get her pajamas out first, and that other men would touch her underwear, he felt uncomfortable and gave up this ridiculous idea.

In the daytime, the two of them were busy with their own things. Fortunately, at night, Johnny didn't say there was any emergency work to do. Elsa and Soren returned to the city. It usually took at least three

hours from the company to the city. Obviously, Soren loved Heather so much that he returned to city no matter how inconvenient.

It was past seven o'clock when they got to the downtown. This time, Soren didn't go to vegetarian places only, which made Elsa feel relieved. She didn't want to be accommodated every time.

"Later, grandma and grandpa will come here, and then mom and Uncle Heather. You have seen each other before. Let's have dinner together. " Soren set Elsa's mind at rest.

Elsa nodded. She had met the four elders in the family. All of them were affable and easy to get along with. There was nothing to worry about or nervous for her.

"Let's look at the menu first." Soren handed the menu to Elsa. He had flipped the menu to the vegetarian part.

"Grandpa and grandma are old. They'd better eat something soft and light." said Elsa, as she took over the menu and flipped forward.

She almost talked to herself. She had dinner with grandparents several times, and Elsa knew what they liked to eat.

It was the first time she had dinner with Susie and Heather. Unconsciously, Elsa asked, "what do mother and Uncle Heather like?"

Soren told her the details one by one. The feelings about the talking between husband and wife made his heat filled by slight feelings. He felt different from being with his elders. It was a sense of happiness as a husband and a wife.

"You like ribs and beef. Um, baked ribs and the famous wind blowing beef, okay? " After reading the menu, Elsa lifted her head and ran into Soren's dark eyes with a big smile in his eyes. He noddedNôvelDrama.Org content.

heavily, "very good."

Elsa immediately lowered her head, with her face a little red, and dared not look up at him.

Grandparents arrived first. They walked into a private room. In order to ease the awkwardness just now, Elsa took the lead to receive them. She held grandma's arm and they sat down together. Grandma happily kept praising Elsa's smartness.

"Yes, you are right. Since I had Elsa, seems I do not behave myself ," Soren answered with a laugh

"Come here, dear grandson. Sit next to me." How could grandma not loving him. Even as an adult, when Soren heard that, he came over and leaned close to his grandma like a child. And yet, he reached out his hand behind his grandma and grasped Elsa's.

Elsa was very embarrassed to be caught by him. Fortunately, the tall and slim figure of Heather appeared at the door. Soren released Elsa and stepped toward the door with a smile, "Uncle Heather is here!"

Heather and Susie walked in together, their fingers interlocked. Susie looked a little embarrassed, and she reluctantly let go of his hand when she saw the two old people and two children.

Soren said to the waiters at the gate, "everyone is here, you can serve now."

The six had taken their seats. The joy was obvious on everyone's face. When the dishes were almost ready, Soren first raised his glass and said to Heather, "Uncle Heather, when I and Elsa got married, I should have asked you and my mother to attend our wedding. But my mother was not in China at that time. I heard that you were busy with business, so I didn't dare to disturb you. It's my fault. I'll punish myself by drinking one glass of wine first. "

Because they had to drive, there were the elder at the table. Soren and Heather always drank wine when they were alone, but now they are drinking juice.

"Originally, I was blaming you for not telling me about such an important matter, but since you and Elsa are so good, how can I blame you? Don't punish. Punishing means being distant. " Heather stopped him and raised his glass, "Uncle Heather is your uncle. I toast you and Elsa a happy life."

Elsa took up her glass and drank the juice with them.

Holding onto Dunn's arm, Susie said, "No. I don't want to toast you. Or else, I'm not happy."

"Yes, you're right. We are a family. Family doesn't mention anything like this. Just enjoy ourselves." Heather looked at Susie with doting eyes that didn't match his age.

At the wedding, Dunn also sent Elsa and Soren the same wedding presents. The presents were not expensive, but very exquisite. They were a pair of Wedding Dolls. The two baby lips with lovely expressions were kissing each other, which looked very pleasant. Heather was a sedate man, so Elsa guessed that the gift must be chosen by Susie. But she would like it no matter who gave it to her.

Soren was a very filial man. He took food for the elders while laughing, "These are what Elsa ordered specially for you. Grandpa, grandma, Uncle Heather, eat more."

Elsa smiled too. The four elders were very kind and amiable. They constantly talked about the daily lives of their children. Elsa was not very talkative, and her attitude was very gentle and generous. The more the four elders saw her, the more satisfied with her.

When they talked about their parents, Susie said, "Elsa's home is very far away from here. You don't go back often. If you have time, you can come over often. It's your home. You don't know how much I want a daughter. "

"I will come." Elsa answered.

Grandma smiled, "You seldom come back. Every time Elsa came, she could only come to accompany us two old man."

"Mom, I'll be back as soon as I finish my work." Susie turned to Elsa and said, "I heard that Elsa's mother is a teacher. On the summer vacation, when she is free, Ren should arrange for Elsa's parents to come and live with us for a few days. In this way, Elsa won't miss them that much."

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking about. I just wanted to talk to Elsa when we could make an appointment. " Soren looked at Elsa with a smile.

Elsa said quickly: "My mom has taken junior middle school student and she is a head teacher. She has to take over the next juniors after the students finished the high school entrance exam every year. She always pays attention to tutor students during summer vacation, so she may not have much time. When I got married with Ren, they were all too busy to make it here. "

"Really? They are so busy." Susie said in a smile, "Then you should spare more time to go back and have a look at them". It's not easy for a kid to get a promotion. The teachers have to take the responsibility and parents are worried about their children. "

"Yes. We are staying in a small place now. The staff of our schools are way too much worse than that of Linchuan City. If students want to get into a good school to have a bright future. They need to work hard to achieve her goal. In addition, they need to take remedial lessons during summer vacation. "

Nodding her head, Susie replied, "Raising child takes responsibilities. In today's society, it took a lot of time and energy to raise a child. It was okay if the child was taken care of by the old. The young could go out to continue to work, and no one would help to look after the child. The young had to busy with

work and at the same time, they had to distract their attention to take care of the child. They were in a mess at both ends. We are all fine. We are many and not busy. We can help look after the kids. "

The topic was brought back to the topic that Elsa was trying to avoid. Since she didn't want to talk much, she just nodded for some words.

Seeing that Elsa's face turned red again, Soren smiled and said, "All right, mother. I'll go back with Elsa when I'm free in a few days. I'll go to the place where she lived and have a look. Take it as a vacation for a leisure."

"I told you to visit parents so that she can look after her parents. I did not allowed you to go out for fun. You wish!" Susie blamed her son.

Soren smiled, so did Elsa. Soren whispered in her ear, "I'd like to visit the place where you grew up."

"Okay." Elsa nodded and said in a low voice.

Everyone was enjoying themselves, talking about Soren and Elsa. Heather wanted to say something, but a flush suddenly appeared on the face of Susie. Soren said to Elsa in a low voice, "Are girls always so shy? You and my mother love to blush."

Hearing that, Elsa blushed again. "Maybe," she said

"Listen to what Uncle Heather is going to say." Soren's left hand had been clasping Elsa's hand under the table. They ate with their right hands and their left hands held together. They sat very close to each other, seeming to be head over head.

With a slight cough, Heather cleared his throat and said with a smile, "Since everyone is here today, Susie and I have one thing to announce."
