"Father said that this is a young man that hasn't been seen in many years. As expected …" Yi Xue stretched out his hand, and upon touching it, left. She did not make any contact with him, and her smile was flawless, arrogant and courteous. At the same time, she maintained a suitable distance.
The man retracted his hand, and looked at Yi Xue secretly. There was no dissatisfaction on his face, instead, he secretly praised the girl's tutoring, and the two of them found a place to sit.
"Is there only one lady in Chen Family?" Yi Xue tilted her head slightly to look at the man in front of him, her black and white eyes exceptionally clear.
That's right, isn't that Chen Cancan the only young miss in the Chen Family right now? It's normal for you not to know her, because they aren't from this city. As expected, the man was quite attentive, she took a cup of mint wine from the waiter's tray and gently pushed it towards Yi Xue, "The banquet does not have any drinks, you can try using this, the degree is very low."
The corner of his mouth slightly raised, his voice neither loud nor low, sounding somewhat like a child's voice, "I haven't drunk any wine before, but this cup is only drunk because you invited me to!"
As he said that, he took a sip and his eyes sparkled, as if he was a naughty child drinking wine while carrying his family on his back.
As expected, the man could not help but smile. His smile spread to the corners of his eyes, but he was extremely well-mannered and did not make any teasing remarks.
A profound look flashed past Yi Xue's eyes, he stopped there, and at the same time, she heaved a sigh of relief. She will never be that obedient young miss again …
"Sorry... I'm going back. "
However, they had not talked for long. From afar, when Yi Xue saw the Yi's Father waving at him, she stood up and looked at the man apologetically. He was about to leave.
"Wait a moment." The man called out to her and handed her a business card. With a gentle smile, he asked, "May I know your name?"
"My name is Yi Xue." Taking the name card, Yi Xue knew that she had already done the best that she could. Waving her hand, she walked towards Yi's Father with light footsteps.
"Why is it so slow? You still want me to wait for you? "
Yi's Father's expression was not good as he led her back in the car. He did not try to hide his anger and scolded, "These things do not know what's good for them, if they want to open a market in A city they are not willing to spend money. They act like a lord, this kind of people will vomit after a few days! "You're still thinking of supporting him? Pfft, supporting them to steal our business?"
Listening to Yi's Father's complaints, Yi Xue nodded her head from time to time, indicating that she was listening. However, her gaze was focused on the scenery outside the window.
His fingertips circled the rope of the cross ornament around his neck. In this world, apart from faith and conviction, nothing was permanent.
"Miss, Boss, get off, we're here." The car stopped. The butler looked at the golden watch on his wrist with the same indifferent expression, "Also, half an hour ago, Madam went out after dinner."
"She knows how to run away, so she might as well not come back. She will only know how to be a spendthrift!" Yi's Father's anger had obviously reached her stepmother as well. Yi Xue didn't pay too much attention to it, but tried her best to lower the feeling of her own existence so that she wouldn't be implicated.
Chen Family, who was able to make his father leave midway, was actually not afraid of offending the Yi family. Either Chen Family had a huge backer, or they were not afraid of tigers when they were just born, but no matter how furious his father was, he did not say anything to make them suffer …
It seems like this Chen Family is very powerful?
Seeing Yi Xue keep her head low and not saying a word, the butler sighed. He knew that this young miss who had watched him grow up had married to an idiot, and also knew that there was a conflict between Yi Mu and Yi Xue, "The boss seems to be angry to be back so soon, it seems like none of you had eaten anything at the banquet. If you don't want to eat dinner with the boss, I'll get someone to send you upstairs."
"No need, I'm fine. I won't be eating dinner. I was just thinking about something just now and was distracted." Yi Xue replied as sshe opened the door of the car and got off. Looking at the two storied villa under the light, he took a deep breath.
She went back to her room and changed out of her dress. She folded it back up and put it back in the wardrobe, since she could only wear her gown once, and because she couldn't wear it during normal times, she wouldn't wear it at the next banquet. However, this extravagance was only a matter of face …
A name card fell out from the waist flap of the dress. Yi Xue picked it up and looked at the few big words printed on the black and white sides of the paper — — Chen Yi.
He smiled and tossed it into the trash can. If it was a son who wanted to inherit a family business, at this age, there would be at least one vice president with a fake job on his business card. If he didn't write anything down, it would either be a real person who didn't show up or a useless son who didn't have the qualifications to inherit a family business.
Her father had no intentions of giving her the family business, and she didn't know what he was planning. Did he really think that she could live a few more years and not worry about this matter, or did he have other plans?
She didn't need to pass her family business, yet there was someone who could entrust her with it? Bastard? Yi Xue was very clear about his personality. If he had a son, he wouldn't have let her marry that idiot, but instead would have had to climb up to a higher branch even if he had to give her as a gift! She would not care about her feelings or thoughts.
When they first wanted her to marry Tan Yizhe, her father had planned to give her the company, because Tan Yizhe had the ability to guard his family's business, and he was not a person who would seek profits or influence.
Rubbing her forehead in distress, she looked at her stepmother as if she was sure that her father wouldn't give her the family business, which was why she gave him a cold stare more and more recently. Furthermore, it was as if he was giving up on himself and didn't try to please his father anymore.
In a room on the second floor, Chen Cancan ruffled up the hair that had been scattered, and rubbed her neck uncomfortably as she walked a few steps like a stiff puppet, then looked towards Ling Chen who was watching the show from the side, "Big Brother, you didn't say that Father would come, and I also did not agree to participate in the banquet.
"Literally." Ling Chen crossed his arms, "I'm in charge of watching over you, you won't have the chance to run out, also, I know that your leg is injured, but there's no need to pretend to be like this and not want to leave. Father's request is for you to walk out openly, and not to limp for them to see a joke."
