"More than 200,000? Is that your friend's car? Can their family afford a car?" Xie Jinzhou was somewhat impressed by the Chen family's methods.
"No, I... I used some connections to find out that the car is registered under Miss Chen's name, and it was only recently purchased."
The store manager said that a man called the Nan Province car dealership to buy a car and put it under Chen Chunhua's name.
The money was transferred half an hour after the call ended.
Chen's parents didn't know about the car; she and her siblings had gone out for a trip together.
That manager was someone Wu Liangsheng knew; he used to work at a car dealership in Beijing and was transferred to the southern province as manager.
"Oh my god, could it be a sugar daddy/sugar baby arrangement?"
"Changxing, you little rascal, it's a good thing your uncle had someone investigate, otherwise... you'd better break up with her right now."
Bai Feng looked disgusted. He was a dashing and charming man, but he was not vulgar.
Xie Jinzhou: "Vain, shameless, self-degrading, climbing the social ladder, shameless... all the bad words can probably be used to describe their family."
This whole family is awful.
Jiang Huaishu: "Are Chen's parents planning to sell their daughter to support the family? To make a fortune through marriage?"
The question is, what kind of family is the Chen family? Would anyone be willing to form a marriage alliance with them?
Poor parenting can really negatively impact a child.
Lu Zhengjing glanced at the photo and realized it was from the train; it was the older of the two sisters.
He made the final decision: "Changxing, the Chen family is all vain and relies on selling their daughter to support their family. You can't date this guy!"
"While our Lu family and your Shen family don't prioritize social status when it comes to marriage, character and upbringing are absolutely essential."
"Seventh Brother is right. I will never agree to a woman like that marrying into our Shen family. Son, just give up on that idea."
At this moment, Lu Zhengnan opened the door and walked in. She was accompanied by several friends and two young women dressed in understated yet luxurious haute couture dresses.
"Mom, what brings you here? And what are you doing eavesdropping?" Shen Changxing asked, his face grim, upon seeing the group of people at the door.
His face was contorted with pain, and he felt even more ashamed and guilty.
Regardless, Chen Chunhua was the woman he wanted to date, and now so many people were hearing about her family's scandals.
"Second Sister!" Lu Zhengjing's eyes instantly darkened, his face turned icy, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze.
Although the Chen family was an insignificant, ordinary family, he did not want the matter to become public knowledge.
Originally, only my nephew and Wu Liangsheng were invited today.
When Bai Feng found out, he insisted on bringing two other people along, and they waited in the private room early on. Fengting Club belongs to Bai Feng.
At the time, Lu Zhengjing thought they were all his own brothers, people he could trust, so he didn't kick them out.
Furthermore, the information he asked me to investigate was all about the daily lives of the Chen family, things that outsiders already knew, so it wasn't really a matter of privacy.
Now, however, they were caught in the act by several ladies who came in.
He actually made this mistake by not having someone guard the door.
The main reason was that he believed no one would dare to break into his house or eavesdrop.
"Ladies and young ladies, I hope that what happened today will not be known to anyone else."
"Of course, Seventh Master Lu, we are not gossipy people. Besides, this is Sister Nan's and the Shen family's private matter, and we didn't hear anything today."
The ladies suddenly felt the temperature in the private room drop several degrees, and their backs felt a little cold.
They all nodded and promised that if they didn't want to cause trouble for their families, they would not tell anyone about what happened today.
After saying that, they left on their own and closed the door.
However, secrets don't stay hidden forever, and it's inevitable that people will gossip about it in private, which is indeed the case.
Chen Xihua was unaware that the names of the Chen sisters had already spread in a small circle within Beijing's high society.
This was before she went to Beijing.
Not long after, she found out, and Chen Xihua was so angry that she wanted to investigate the culprit as well.
If the other person is a woman, tell her exactly how many armpit and leg hairs she has.
If it's a man, report how many times he went to the toilet in a day and how long each time took.
It's outrageous! Although that information is indeed something that everyone in the Chen family knows on the surface, we haven't done anything to offend anyone.
Lu Zhengjing was unaware that he had truly done something foolish this time.
When he finally wanted to win back his wife, he wished he could turn back time and go back to the beginning. He should have listened to his second sister and investigated the Chen family's ancestry for eighteen generations.
Because if the future daughter-in-law gets unhappy, she'll say, "I'm not good enough, my family isn't good enough either."
He really wanted to swear and spit on himself.
It's a pity I didn't know sooner.
Of course, Lu Zhengjing was also trying to salvage the situation in the private room.
Although the Chen family was an insignificant, ordinary family.
However, the behavior of each member of the Chen family is enough to serve as a negative example for discussion. They will become fodder for gossip, jokes, and satire, and will be talked about with great interest.
That's true, but Lu Zhengjing suppressed it immediately with swift and decisive measures, so no one dared to discuss it privately anymore.
"Aunt Nan!" The others stood up and called out to her.
"I've already told you, just call me Sister Nan." Lu Zhengnan pretended to be unhappy. Was she really that old?
She was only 45 years old, while her younger brother and his brothers, as well as her son, were all 24 or 25 years old.
Jiang Huaishu said solemnly, "You are the mother of Changxing, so..."
“Let’s each do our own thing.” Lu Zhengnan had never liked this before, since his younger brother was twenty years younger than him.
His classmates and friends were only a year or two older than Changxing. Some called him "sister," while others called him "aunt."
“Okay, Sister Nan!” Bai Feng was the most sensible.
"Here, the letter that female student wrote to you."
"But son, how could you just give her the address of our compound like that? Aren't you afraid she'll come knocking on your door and bother you?"
Feeling refreshed, Lu Zhengnan took out an unopened letter from her bag and handed it to Shen Changxing.
"I didn't peek!"
But in my heart I thought: I only hid for a few days.
"Thank you, Mom!" Shen Changxing replied casually, taking the letter. He no longer cared why his mother had brought his letter; his mind was completely blank at that moment.
However, he really didn't want to believe that Chunhua's family could be so despicable. His hands trembled slightly, but he quickly tore open the envelope and took out the letter inside.
After reading it, Shen Changxing felt even more bewildered.
The others were a little puzzled. What was written in the letter?
"Son, what did that female student say? Is she going to come to our house to see you?" Lu Zhengnan asked nervously.
"...No need for your investigation, there's still no obstruction. We can't be together anymore, she rejected me. She said my family is too well-off, and she's not good enough for me."
Shen Changxing's face was very ugly, painful, like he was laughing and crying at the same time, as if he was mocking himself.
Lu Zhengnan: "Playing hard to get!"
Bai Feng: "A strategic retreat?"
Xie Jinzhou: "Maybe he's faking it..."
Jiang Huai wrote: "..."
"Stop talking!" Shen Changxing suddenly shouted, then rubbed his face with both hands, clearly sober, and asked, "Mom, have you done anything else?"
"No...is anything wrong? No!"
Lu Zhengnan initially thought that his son's relationship with that female student was doomed to fail, and was secretly pleased at first.
But seeing her son so upset, she dared not upset him any further.
Shen Changxing didn't believe his mother, but it was no use saying anything now. Besides, his mother had suffered so much for him, and he couldn't bear to blame her.
Lu Zhengjing's expression was also grim. He had a bad feeling, and things were going a little off from what he had planned.
