"Xiuyuan, right? You stopped me on purpose just to ask me this question?" Jiang Tian blinked and gave a friendly smile.

The one who stopped Jiang Tian was Duan Muqing's cousin, Cheng Xiuyuan.

The Cheng family and the Duan family are equally powerful, but the Cheng family mainly develops in the south, not in this city.

Due to family reasons, Cheng Xiuyuan was unwilling to return to his own home, so he chose to live here.

He is just twenty years old and has already completed his university studies. He is now pursuing a master's degree.

As a little genius in the family, Cheng Xiuyuan is also good-looking with handsome features, but he has a cold temperament, giving people an indescribable sense of distance.

He was the one who spoke the least at the dinner table.

While others eagerly asked Jiang Tian how she met Duan Muqing and how they started dating, he remained silent.

But now, he blocked Jiang Tian's path and asked her this question.

They clearly came with ill intentions.

"We're both getting married, what do you say?"

Jiang Tian did not show any dissatisfaction with his gloomy tone, but instead smiled and used a gentle attitude to defuse the tense situation.

"You're not right for him, you should break up with him as soon as possible."

Cheng Xiuyuan has a very stubborn temper and speaks even more harshly, making people feel that he is deliberately making things difficult for them.

"Then can you tell me why? We're about to get married, and you're asking me to leave him? Don't you think that's very inappropriate?" Jiang Tian's tone didn't reveal any anger.

“My cousin had a childhood sweetheart, and they were very close. Her name was Shen Qingshu. Later, Shen Qingshu got married, and they broke up. But she was the first person he ever loved, and she had a huge influence on him.”

"Even if he gets together with you because he likes you for a while, you're doomed once he regrets it."

After Cheng Xiuyuan finished speaking, she noticed that Jiang Tian was still watching her without making a sound.

He frowned slightly: "Why aren't you saying anything?"

“I know he has someone he likes, and I know he can’t have her. I’ve also had unrequited love before. We’re actually even.”

“Marriage is not just about feelings. The union of two families represents a further leap in strength. He is responsible, and I believe he would not abandon me.”

Jiang Tian spoke in a calm and unhurried tone.

"That's just your belief; you don't know how much influence that woman has on him. I'm advising you to leave for your own good."

Do you like that person too?

Jiang Tian's words struck Cheng Xiuyuan like a fatal blow, and his voice caught in his throat.

His eyes widened slightly as he looked at Jiang Tian: "What are you talking about?"

"You seemed strange to me, so I asked you a question, and it seems I guessed right." Jiang Tian smiled slyly.

However, her smile failed to dispel the tense atmosphere this time.

"Yes, I like her. The man that Qing Shu loves is not suitable for her. When she regrets it and comes back, I hope she can meet someone who is devoted to her. I hope that person is my cousin."

“My cousin is a stubborn person. Once he likes someone, he will never fall in love with someone else in his life. Even if he is infatuated with you for a short time and is with you to deal with work, you two will still break up later. So it’s better to end it from the beginning.”

Seeing that Jiang Tian remained silent, Cheng Xiuyuan assumed she had been persuaded and continued to state his opinion: "I consider myself to have average emotional intelligence, so there's nothing I can do but advise you to leave. Just because you two have a good relationship for a while doesn't mean it will last. He will change his mind sooner or later, so you might as well cut your losses in time to avoid getting more and more involved."

At this point, Cheng Xiuyuan paused for a moment: "At least you don't have children yet. If you did, it would be irresponsible of you to have children."

As he spoke, a hint of disgust flashed in Cheng Xiuyuan's eyes, clearly indicating that he had a past that no one knew about.

But his behavior was already too outrageous.

After patiently listening to him finish speaking, Jiang Tian's smile vanished. She looked at him and said, "Do you know you're offending me?"
