Gentle and virtuous Song Yi harbors a secret: years ago, when she was desperate, she sought help from a man. She witnessed his wildness and endured his disdain.
She thought they would never m...
Chapter 429 Her Background
Jiang Yuxu's expression was serious and solemn. "I'm giving you a heads-up."
Qiao Wan: "Vaccination?"
She didn't understand. Jiang Yuxu had finally gotten his wish, and they, as his parents, were so happy that they couldn't contain themselves. Why did Jiang Yuxu bring up the matter of vaccination?
Jiang Zheng pondered for a moment, then thought of something and asked, "What do you think your mother and I would mind about her?"
"Her personality is probably not the type you would appreciate." It was normal for Jiang Yuxu to have such considerations.
Most of the people in this circle are so-called self-disciplined ladies. No matter what they are like in private, at least their image to the outside world is pure and innocent.
"What are you saying?" Qiao Wan was amused by his words. "When you find a wife, just appreciate her personality. Why bother with me and your father?"
Jiang Zheng and his wife agreed: "Personality doesn't matter. As long as you like it, it's fine. Your mother and I trust your judgment."
After hearing the attitudes of the two, Jiang Yuxu felt a little relieved.
Then he asked, "Do you mind her background?"
Jiang Zheng: "What's most important is that you like it."
He put down his teacup. "While being well-matched is certainly important, it can't be the sole criterion for choosing a spouse. As long as her parents don't have a criminal record and her family is clean, we won't consider her qualifications. Besides, anyone who's your schoolmate probably isn't much different."
"That's right." Qiao Wan took over Jiang Zheng's words and looked at her son speechlessly: "If you have time to worry about this and that, you might as well go after them. They haven't even started yet."
Jiang Yuxu: "I'm chasing."
Qiao Wan and Jiang Zheng looked at him with distrust, and they really didn't believe that he could use any means to chase someone.
Jiang Zheng: "When you have time, talk to more experienced friends and learn from them. If you are not good at something, be open-minded and learn."
Jiang Yuxu: "I understand."
After agreeing to this, Jiang Yuxu looked at Qiao Wan, "Actually, there is one most important thing I haven't said yet."
His sudden and serious words made Qiao Wan's heart jump a little: "What else?"
"She is Professor Gui Yan's daughter." Jiang Yuxu confessed Gui Qing's identity to the two elders.
Qiao Wan and Jiang Zheng were both very surprised, and the couple looked at each other.
Qiao Wan: "What a coincidence?"
Jiang Zheng: "How did you know?"
Jiang Yuxu touched his nose bridge. Of course, he couldn't say that it was Zhan Mo who asked someone to follow Gui Qing and found out that she was having dinner with Gui Yan.
So I made up an excuse: "I ran into them having dinner together before."
Qiao Wan: "I didn't expect there was such a connection—"
"That's not right," Qiao Wan suddenly thought of something, "Since she is Professor Gui Yan's daughter, why are you still worried that we mind her background?"
Jiang Yuxu: "After the divorce, she has been living with her mother."
Qiao Wan frowned: "You don't know who her mother is, do you?"
Jiang Yuxu: "...You know?"
When he asked Zhan Mo to look up Gui Qing's information before, Zhan Mo spent a lot of effort but couldn't find any relevant information about her parents.
Because Gui Qing went abroad to study after finishing middle school, the information he left behind in China was very limited, and their previous conversations had never touched on family matters.
Jiang Zheng was also frustrated by Jiang Yuxu's question. He rubbed his temples and said, "You don't know her well enough, are you sure you can win her over?"
Jiang Yuxu: "..."
It was a sharp question, and he couldn't answer it.
Jiang Yuxu turned to look at Qiao Wan and asked the same question again: "Who is her mother?"
Qiao Wan: "Her mother is the only daughter of one of the old families in Hong Kong City and a well-known entrepreneur."
Qiao Wan didn't know much about Gui Yan's ex-wife. She only knew her identity and background, which she heard from Deng Yue when she talked about her and Gui Yan's emotional experience.
Deng Yue said that Gui Yan's ex-wife had a prominent family background and was a career-oriented woman. After marriage, the two often had conflicts due to their personality differences, and eventually their relationship broke down and they separated.
His ex-wife took custody of the child.
Qiao Wan's words had a great impact on Jiang Yuxu.
After listening to this, he was silent for a long time, his lips unconsciously pressed into a line - he knew that Gui Qing's family was well-off, but he didn't expect that she had such a strong background, so why did she -
"It seems that this girl is very ambitious and has her own ideas," Jiang Zheng commented.
Qiao Wan also nodded.
With such a strong background, she still went out to work hard on her own. Judging from Jiang Yuxu's reaction, her usual behavior did not show any trace of being spoiled, otherwise he would not be so surprised.
"She has her own ideas." Jiang Yuxu was silent for a while, and finally found his voice, "Mom, do you know anything else?"
Qiao Wan thought for a moment, "Oh, yes, her mother has a boyfriend now, but I don't know anything else."
These were all brought up by Deng Yue. Qiao Wan was a person with a strong sense of propriety and would not take the initiative to ask about these things.
"Do you like that girl's photo?" Qiao Wan was very curious. "Can I see it?"
Jiang Yuxu: "It's not saved on my phone."
Qiao Wan: "Is your way of pursuing someone reliable? Why do I feel like you two don't know each other at all?"
Jiang Yuxu: "..."
Qiao Wan: "Work hard. Xiaoyi and Ajing are getting married in April. Try to bring them over then."
Jiang Zheng said mercilessly: "It's less than two months. He probably won't be able to make it."
Jiang Yuxu: "..."
After being poked in the lungs by his own parents one after another, Jiang Yuxu wisely chose to remain silent and buried his head in eating.
…
After dinner, Jiang Yuxu sat in the old house for about ten minutes and then drove away. Considering that he had to go to work the next day, Jiang Zheng and Qiao Wan did not keep him.
On the way back, Jiang Yuxu was still thinking about Qiao Wan's words.
Suddenly I understood why Zhan Mo couldn't find Gui Qing's family background and parents' information before.
It’s not because she went abroad to study, but because her mother did special work on this.
Jiang Yuxu was not familiar with the situation in Hong Kong. The law firm did not have much business dealings there, and he had not been there many times.
But the big families in Hong Kong City...their background and strength should not be underestimated.
Qiao Wan just said that her mother is an only child and is now the head of the family, and Gui Qing is also her only child. Logically, she should go back and inherit the family business.
In short, she doesn't have to work as hard as she does now.
Jiang Yuxu knew Gui Qing's experience in NV very well. She was recruited through campus recruitment after graduating with a master's degree. At first, she was just an ordinary modeling engineer. In a few years, she was promoted to her current position, independently led projects, and had her own experimental team. She had overcome all of this step by step.
NV's colleagues said that she worked very hard. She hardly took any vacation in her first year of work. Business trips and overtime were commonplace, and she wished she could live directly in the company.
