After the True Heiress Travels Back
Chapter 919: I’m Here to See My Future Wife
CHAPTER 919: CHAPTER 919: I’M HERE TO SEE MY FUTURE WIFE
Facing Zhen Yunjin’s smiling expression, Shi Yaoguang was momentarily at a loss for words.
Zhen Yunjin really does things quite openly.
"Miss Shi, you don’t have to look at me like that."
Zhen Yunjin looked at her, a hint of teasing in his eyes, "Speaking of Xiao Shanghe spending so much time with you in the crew, didn’t you have any other thoughts about him?"
Shi Yaoguang: "What would I even think about him?"
Zhen Yunjin looked a bit disappointed, "I thought you’d find him cute and interesting."
Shi Yaoguang shook her arms, "I’m not interested in him."
Although Xiao Shanghe is no longer a monk now.
But he used to be a monk, having something happen with him somehow feels a bit against common decency.
In conclusion.
It’s not very pleasant.
Besides, there’s also a jealous guy sitting beside me.
Shi Yaoguang could almost sense the strong scent of jealousy emanating from Quan Jinbei.
Zhen Yunjin also looked at Quan Jinbei, provokingly speaking, "Are you a man?"
Quan Jinbei gave him a sidelong glance and said nothing.
It was as if to say "can’t be bothered to talk to an idiot."
Zhen Yunjin didn’t get upset either, "Mr. Quan, I’m not trying to provoke you, I just feel like you’re being a bit cowardly."
Quan Jinbei looked at him with a gaze of caring for the mentally challenged, "Perhaps you should have your head examined."
Zhen Yunjin laughed instead of getting angry, "I think Mr. Quan might have already realized, my mother, Ms. Mei Yueyan, was your father’s first love."
Shi Yaoguang heard this and suddenly widened her eyes.
"Mei Yueyan..." Shi Yaoguang thought about how when Quan Jinbei heard the name Mei Yueyan, he did indeed seem a bit off.
But she hadn’t thought in this direction before.
After all, from whatever source you learned information, Old Master Quan’s first love was supposed to be dead.
It was like that in a past life.
In this life...
How did someone supposed to be dead just show up like this?
Zhen Yunjin looked at Shi Yaoguang’s shocked expression and chuckled softly, "Miss Shi, are you very surprised? There’s actually no need."
Shi Yaoguang pondered and asked, "What’s really going on here? If she’s not dead, why would Old Master Quan believe she was dead?"
Zhen Yunjin tugged at the corner of his lips, yet there wasn’t a sliver of a smile on his face, "This is precisely her cleverness."
"Ms. Mei Yueyan is quite an extraordinary woman."
"She has plenty of ways to make men fight desperately for her."
He paused as he spoke, "You just heard, not only does she have a connection and got married to my biological father, but she also didn’t spare even her own brother."
Zhen Yunjin finished speaking and clicked his tongue, "She could not overturn the ship for such a long time, it speaks to her abilities. If it were me, I couldn’t achieve such things."
Shi Yaoguang nodded in strong agreement.
Some abilities, indeed...
Aren’t possessed by ordinary people.
The ultimate consequence of dabbling around in relationships can only be being capsized by the waves.
However, speaking of this.
If Mei Yueyan was Old Master Quan’s first love, then she was Quan Sicheng’s biological mother.
From their conversation, it seemed she cared quite a bit about Quan Sicheng.
At least much more than she did for Zhen Yunjin, who was neither male nor female in her eyes.
In this situation, could she bear to watch Quan Sicheng rot in prison?
Zhen Yunjin discerned her thoughts immediately and said, "Ms. Mei Yueyan’s love, whatever type it is, is very extravagant."
"She can show maternal love to Quan Sicheng, but it’s merely because Quan Sicheng was the only healthy son she bore."
"Quan Sicheng murdered someone and ended up in prison — of course, she’d be pained by it."
"But compared to saving him with the price needed to pay, whether or not Quan Sicheng is jailed seemed negligible to her."
Hearing this, Shi Yaoguang showed some signs of sorrow.
Mei Yueyan as a mother was really a bit...
One wouldn’t know how to put it.
...
Xiao Family.
After Shi Yaoguang and the others left, Xiao Shanghe stopped sobbing into his quilt.
He thought about it thoroughly.
Realized he couldn’t remain so passive.
After all, he’s also the Young Master of the Xiao Family.
Strictly speaking, his position is equal to Zhen Yunjin’s.
In that case, why should he behave like some maiden waiting to be married off, just crying at home?
He should instead be standing out there, full of confidence.
Standing before Zhen Yunjin, letting her see who will be the future master of the house!
With this thought in mind, Xiao Shanghe made up his mind.
He needed to meet Zhen Yunjin personally!
With a set decision, Xiao Shanghe went to consult his father at home.
"Dad, I want to visit the Zhen Family."
The head of the Xiao Family looked at him suspiciously, "What do you need to say to the Zhen Family?"
"I’m about to marry Zhen Yunjin yet I haven’t seen her in person; that’s inappropriate, don’t you think?"
Xiao Shanghe pouted, "It’s not like it’s ancient times still practicing blind marriage and dumb wedding!"
Head of the Xiao Family snorted disdainfully, "You think I like having you blind marry and dumb wed? I asked you to go to the Zhen Family and interact more with Miss Zhen — wasn’t it you who didn’t want to go?"
Xiao Shanghe rolled his eyes, "I don’t want to go now either; I don’t even want to marry her! Haven’t seen you agree with me either."
"Since that’s the case, what’s the point in resisting anymore?"
He added with a chuckle, "I’ve decided! I’m going to the Zhen Family myself to meet this supposed Miss Zhen! I really want to see just how a woman like her can deal with me!"
Seeing Xiao Shanghe’s confident expression, the head of the Xiao Family rubbed his forehead.
This son...
No matter how you look at it, seems rather silly.
But there’s no choice when he’s your biological son.
When it’s your own child, what can you do?
You just endure it.
Despite endless complaints in his mind, the old man still couldn’t rest assured about him.
After some thought, he simply agreed to his request.
"I can let you go to the Zhen Family, but remember this, once you’re there, don’t cause a ruckus. Understood?"
Xiao Shanghe stared wide-eyed, "Come on now, whose real old father are you? I haven’t gone yet, and you’re already saying I’m causing trouble?"
The head of the Xiao Family seemed to have already seen through his nature, "Aren’t I, as your father, the one who knows you best?"
"Anyway, remember this old man’s words — you can go, but don’t do anything you shouldn’t!"
Xiao Shanghe waved his hand impatiently, "Alright alright, I know; I’m not a kid anymore."
Simultaneously, he was thinking in his head that once he meets Zhen Yunjin, he must make Zhen Yunjin kneel down and sing ’Conquer’!
By that time, Zhen Yunjin will personally acknowledge his talents before his father...
Just thinking about it already makes him feel wonderful.
With that, he brought along two Xiaosi, along with his cheerful mood, and headed to the Zhen Family.
The porter from the Zhen Family came out upon hearing the knock.
Under the moonlight, after seeing clearly who stood at the door, he was somewhat surprised, "Young Master Xiao, why have you come?"
Xiao Shanghe raised his chin proudly, "I’ve come to see my future bride!"
