“The more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong. If Yun Lian really wanted to report that Shi Qi was not from a wealthy family, she would have told us about this matter when we went to the hospital to do a paternity test on the child. Why did she have to wait until now to tell us about this matter?!”
The more Qian Yun thought about it when she returned home, the more she felt that something was wrong. She was prepared to discuss this matter with the Zhou family’s eldest son and make a thorough investigation.
“Now that you mention it, I remember it too. Even if we don’t believe Yun Lian’s words, Yun Xi’s words still have some degree of credibility! If you say that our in-laws went to the aquatic product store to help scrape fish scales, it still has some degree of credibility. However, Shi Qi is obviously a young lady from a wealthy family. How could she possibly go to the store to scrape fish scales?”
The eldest son of the Zhou family also had doubts about this matter.
After all, the daughter-in-law that the Zhou family was looking for was someone who could provide help to their business, and not someone they had to help again.
“Our two families have already reached the stage of discussing marriage! It’s also because we were too anxious to organize it. We never knew where Shi Qi’s family lived. Isn’t this matter a little suspicious?”
Qian Yun saw Yun Lian once again and understood the principle of learning from one’s mistakes. Before this, their family had been deceived. Now, they absolutely could not repeat the same mistake.
“Then, why don’t we invite them out and have a good chat? We’ll first discuss the business financing and then hold the marriage of our two children.”
Many of the Zhou family’s businesses had already been cashed out. Other than the real estate that allowed them to establish a foothold and survive, some of the other side businesses were already at a dead end.
“Sure, I’ll get Zhou Mo to invite them out! This time, let’s make an appointment at the new western restaurant nearby. We can see if Shi Qi is a real daughter of a rich family based on her etiquette when eating.”
Qian Yun had her own plans.
The next day, the two families sat down after making an appointment at the western restaurant.
Shi Qi’s mother said that she was sick and did not come this time. Only Shi Qi and her father came to the restaurant.
“Look at what happened last time. We feel really bad about being disturbed, so we invited you out for a meal. It can be considered as an apology for what happened last time!”
Qian Yun did not directly ask them about their identities. Instead, she tactfully apologized to them for what happened last time.
“What are you talking about? What are you talking about? It’s okay!” Shi Qi’s father asked them to sit down.
After all, Shi Qi’s father was once a rich man, so he had some understanding of the etiquette in a western restaurant. Although Shi Qi did not enjoy any benefits from her family when she grew up, she was also an extremely vain person.
Shi Qi would go out to work or save up her living expenses to attend some useless extra-curricular training courses! These training courses were to teach her how to hook up with a rich husband!
Therefore, she was very familiar with the etiquette of this western restaurant. Qian Yun looked at the father and daughter, and the two of them really did not see any problems at the moment.
“In-laws, we might need some time to deal with this matter this time. However, our family’s business is really not doing well recently. Why don’t we discuss business cooperation first? Look, the news of these two children’s engagement has already spread. We will become a family sooner or later.”
The Zhou family’s eldest son said that he wanted the Shi family to invest in them.
It was definitely impossible for the two families to raise funds. Shi Qi’s father had been looking at Shi Qi during the meal, not knowing how to answer the Zhou family’s questions.
“Uncle, aunt, Zhou Mo and I can barely be considered fiance and fiancee. Our relationship is not protected by the law. There’s no need to be so anxious about this matter!”
What else could Shi Qi do? She could only reject this matter as before!
However, it was clear that this time, the eldest son of the Zhou family became unforgiving.
