Gan Rui's behavior was noted by Ms. Tao, and she was quite satisfied.
Although it was their first meeting, the young man understood etiquette, knew when to advance or retreat, had an outgoing personality, was well-read, and was already a Scholar at such a young age. Most importantly, he really liked Ah Han.
Ms. Tao, as a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, grew fonder the more she observed him.
Especially since, during previous marriage proposals, she'd seen several other young sirs; in comparison, Gan Rui stood out distinctly.
Ms. Liao calmly sipped her tea. Seeing Ms. Tao's expression, she knew the marriage was almost certainly settled! Watching her younger brother with his heart and eyes full of Meng Han, she found it hard to watch and simply said, "Ah Rui, didn't you say there's a teahouse nearby with pretty good pastries? Why don't you take Nini to buy some?"
Then she turned to Meng Han and said, "Miss Meng, Nini likes you. Would you mind accompanying her?"
