Rose Manor

Chapter 146
Xu Youxuan never found a suitable opportunity to tell her mother that she had a boyfriend. She unexpectedly broke the news and was inevitably a little nervous.

Xu Jingyi was also frightened, and she shouted softly: "Mom..." She couldn't say anything else.

Mother Xu held a plate of cut fruits in her hand, and pushed the half-open study door as far as possible with one hand. Her gentle face lost some of her usual kindness, and she said in disbelief: "You said you had a boy. friend?"

Xu Youxuan stood up from behind the desk, walked slowly over, and closed the door.

Now that her mother heard her, it was unrealistic to keep it secretive. Besides, she originally planned to confess to her mother first: "You heard that right."

Xu's mother looked at her daughter, who had been well-behaved and sensible since childhood, and couldn't accept it for a moment. She put the fruit plate on the table, turned her back to her and said, "Don't you know about the marriage between our family and the Fu family?"

She should know better than anyone else, because her family members have mentioned to her more than once that her future husband-in-law is the best person in the Fu family's generation.

"I don't like Fu Jichen." Xu Youxuan has been holding some words in her heart for a long time. Xu Youxuan has long wanted to talk to her mother. "I know that I was born in the Xu family. I have enjoyed the generous conditions provided by my family since I was a child. I have grown up carefree until now. I deserve it." To repay a favor, you should not disobey your elders. So, you asked me to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, even if I was not interested, I studied hard, and let me maintain excellent grades. When I am old enough, you will send me to study abroad. No matter how hard it is, No matter how tired I am, I can endure it and I have never let you down. However, after all, I am a person, not an object. I have my own emotions. My emotions cannot be influenced by my family, or even controlled by myself. Mom, I really don’t want to Marrying Fu Jichen, I want to marry the person I like."

As she said this, Xu Youxuan cried uncontrollably.

She was quiet and reserved, but not cowardly. She never thought of using tears to achieve her goal. However, when she said this, she still couldn't hold back her tears.

Xu's mother has also been around her age, so it's not difficult to understand her thoughts and her expression was moved.

"When did it happen?" Xu's mother tried hard to maintain her apparent calmness and asked her out loud, "I'm talking about you falling in love."

Xu Youxuan raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes and answered truthfully: "The relationship was officially established a year ago, but we had known each other for a year and a half. He came to my school to give a lecture, and I accompanied my friend to attend. We met by chance. He is very good. He learned that I will stay in China after graduation. He has quit my job in the United States and plans to return to China for development. Last night, during a call, he said that he agreed to Kairui's invitation and will serve as the director of the technical department."

Xu's mother listened quietly without interrupting her.

Kairui is one of the top automobile manufacturing companies in the country, and competition is fierce. The few people who can serve as supervisors are at least 40 years old, which can indeed prove from the side that the boy is very good.

"He is four years older than me and takes great care of me. When I was abroad, all the home-cooked dishes posted in my circle of friends were cooked by him. He is not a native of Beicheng. Both his parents are teachers and he is from a well-educated family. "Xu Youxuan tried her best to convince her mother, "Mom, I like him very much and want to be with him forever."

This was the first time Xu Jingyi saw a determined expression on the face of this gentle sister. She seemed to have decided on that man and would not marry him.

She really didn't understand, no matter how good that man was, could he be as good as the marriage partner her family had chosen for her?
Fu Jichen is the eldest grandson of the Fu family and the leader of the Junshan Group. He has the final say over the entire Fu family. If you marry him, you can become the young mistress of the Fu family and the president's wife of the group. How glorious.

If the Xu family hadn't produced high-ranking officials for generations, such an opportunity would never have come to their family.

Putting aside these extravagant possessions, Fu Jichen himself is tall, handsome, and has a calm temperament. He is the favorite of countless ladies and gentlemen.

Her little sisters, since they glanced at Fu Jichen from a distance in the corridor of the western restaurant that day, have lost their souls since they returned. They always mention Fu Jichen's name in front of her, and ask her about it intentionally or unintentionally.

She could feel the admiration those girls had for Fu Jichen.

My sister is so blessed that she doesn’t know how blessed she is.

Xu's mother could naturally see her eldest daughter's determination. After all, she was just a piece of flesh that fell off her body, and she couldn't bear her sadness. However, the marriage between the two families was decided by the old man of the family, and it could not be changed easily just because of her few words. .

Not to mention the older generation, she was not sure she could even convince her husband.

"Mom understands you, but you have to be aware that the marriage involves many things. Your grandfather has already discussed it with the old gentleman of the Fu family, and the engagement will be finalized by the end of this month at the latest." Xu's mother said everything. The fact did not scare her, "Before that, mom will talk to your dad first."

Xu Jingyi knew the result would be like this. Her mother would feel sorry for her sister, but she could not be the head of the family.

Xu Youxuan was also mentally prepared and did not show any disappointment. She twitched the corner of her mouth and showed a faint smile: "I understand, thank you, mom."

Xu's mother did not pour cold water on her, but gave her a reminder from the perspective of someone who has experienced it: "Mom, I believe you have your own judgment, but after all, you are young and have not experienced many things. Sometimes you know people and don't know their hearts. Can you guarantee that Will the man you choose treat you well for the rest of your life? Maybe he is interested in your family background, or maybe he will change his heart in the future. What should you do? The husband your family chooses for you does not fully consider the Fu family He is a good match for our family, and more importantly, Fu Jichen is a man of good conduct and reliability. No matter what your relationship is like after marriage, at least he will not bully you or treat you badly. What's more, relationships can be cultivated and will last forever if two people live together. , you are so good and considerate, he will see the goodness in you." Xu Youxuan could not find a reason to argue with the previous words, and she knew that her mother was doing it for her own good, and was not deliberately slandering the boy she liked, but just making an assumption.

Regarding the latter sentence, she still had something to say: "Fu Jichen may be really good as you said, but he has someone he likes. Is it possible that, like me, he is not interested in this marriage? Looking forward to it. Since both parties involved are unwilling, why should they be tied together because of family."

Xu's mother didn't know about the news that was making a fuss on the Internet. After listening to her words, her expression was a little confused: "You said he has someone he likes?"

Xu Jingyi grabbed the newspaper on the desk and showed it to her mother. She forgot her sister's teachings to her and said quickly: "Who knows if he likes her? I think it's the White Lotus that is pestering him."

Xu Youxuan looked at her and said disapprovingly: "Yiyi, stop talking."

Xu Jingyi curled her lips.

Xu's mother frowned slightly when she saw the entertainment section of the newspaper.

Even though there was no formal engagement, the two families had made a verbal commitment to the marriage. Now that Fu Jichen was involved in an affair with another woman, it was indeed unreasonable.

"I will ask your father about this and see what he says." Xu's mother said in a bad tone, obviously angry.

She had just finished praising Fu Jichen, and when she saw this piece of news, it was strange that she had a good face.

*
The Xu family is like this, and the Fu family is even more turbulent.

Fu Yuling was the first to see the newspaper and tore it into pieces immediately.

Furious, the police went to buy another copy, and she knocked on her parents' bedroom door with the newspaper.

It rained last night and the temperature dropped. Wei Ronghua caught a cold and felt dizzy and stuffy when he woke up in the morning. He went to bed after breakfast.At this moment, she was woken up by her daughter. She looked tired and asked what happened.

Fu Yuling embellished the news in the newspaper and told her about it, and then showed her the "evidence" in his hand.

Wei Ronghua had a severe headache after hearing this. When he looked at the contents of the newspaper, he saw in bold and bold fonts "The Prince of the Fu family and the daughter of the Shen family are romantically involved in a street romance that makes others envious, and they are suspected of being in love."

The accompanying picture is the most intimate one between the two.

Shen Jianian was wearing a light-colored windbreaker and dress, huddled in the passenger seat of the black Maybach. Fu Jichen stood beside the car, holding a transparent umbrella and a handkerchief to wipe her feet.

Wei Ronghua suddenly felt a surge of energy and blood rushing to the top of her head. She loved her grown-up son as her heartthrob, and wiping the feet of a low-class woman in the street was like gouging out her heart!

"What kind of daughter of the Shen family is that woman! Didn't the person who wrote the article do any investigation?! Call the relevant personnel and withdraw today's newspaper!"

Wei Ronghua was so angry that his heart ached, and he held his chest and gasped.

Seeing her mother's ugly face, Fu Yuling fanned the flames and said, "Needless to say, it must be Shen Jia Nian who is acting coquettishly and pestering my brother. Maybe she asked the paparazzi to take photos. It seems that she has taken over our family."

Wei Ronghua could no longer calm down and took a deep breath: "Have someone check Shen Jianian's number."

According to Fu Yuling, Shen Jia Nian was protected tightly by Fu Jichen. The villa in Yunding Palace Garden was not accessible to ordinary people. Shen Jia Nian was accompanied by bodyguards when she went out. Meeting her was even harder than going to heaven.

Since he can't see her, let her take the initiative to see him.
