Qin Shengyi had just stepped into the Ouyang residence when Qin Yao blocked his way as soon as he looked up.
"Why did it take you so long to get home from get off work? Where did you go?"
Qin Shengyi braced herself for the suspicious look in the other person's eyes, trying her best to remain calm. "I just went to the nearby shopping mall to browse around. I wanted to buy a bag, but it turned out they were out of stock!"
Qin Yao was skeptical, but didn't say anything more, and took her daughter into the second-floor lounge.
"I've already explained things to the Mu family, so Mu Yichen shouldn't dare to bother you anymore."
It's a shame the Mu family still has the nerve to ask why they suddenly made such a decision. Don't they know what kind of person their son really is?
Thinking about it, a look of anger suddenly appeared on Qin Yao's face.
Once bitten, twice shy. In the future, when looking for a blind date for my daughter, I must conduct a thorough investigation before making any formal contact.
Qin Shengyi nodded knowingly, "I understand!"
He verbally agreed, but deep down he felt vaguely uneasy.
So what are your plans next?
"Just focus on your work. Hasn't the company taken on a lot of new projects lately?"
“I meant your plans regarding relationships, you…” Qin Yao glared at her daughter reproachfully, then abruptly stopped mid-sentence, “Never mind, you’re still young anyway, and there’s no rush.”
Thinking that she had almost entrusted her daughter to a scoundrel who was all show and no substance, Qin Yao couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. Shengyi was their only precious daughter.
Qin Shengyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that her mother would continue to arrange random people for her.
Thinking back to what Yan Shu had just mentioned, she secretly resolved that perhaps she should also make an effort for this relationship.
"Mom, can I ask you a question?"
"Speak, my little girl!"
Why exactly do you dislike Brother Yan Shu?
Qin Yao's expression suddenly froze. Seeing her daughter's cautious demeanor, she forcefully suppressed her anger. "He claims he wants to start a business, but he's only rented such a small place."
From this small detail, we can see that Xu Yanshu is a person who is all talk and no action, and this is the kind of person he hates most in his life.
But what bothered him the most was Xu Yanshu's previous questioning of him.
Parents' hearts are always full of love and concern; how dare he, an outsider, openly question my good intentions in this matter?
"You could say he's young and ignorant, but he's already been divorced once, yet he still acts so immaturely!"
“But starting a business means starting from scratch, right?” Qin Shengyi was stunned. She never expected that her mother disliked Yan Shu for this reason. After regaining her senses, she explained, “Besides, I was the one who helped him choose that place.”
"Isn't he planning to start his own business? Why is he bothering you with something like this?!"
"How is it troublesome..."
"Alright, let's leave this topic at that. I don't want my daughter and I to argue about this anymore," Qin Yao waved her hand to interrupt, and said without waiting for a reply, "Anyway, I will never approve of this person, and you'd better turn your attention away from him as soon as possible!"
"I'm going back to my room to change first. You should also get ready; it'll be time for dinner soon."
Watching her mother turn and leave, Qin Shengyi felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness and defeat, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of helplessness.
Yan Shu is clearly a very good person, yet his mother rejects him for such inexplicable reasons...
——
Xu Yanshu was a man of action, and the very next day he arranged to meet Ouyang Ming at a private teahouse.
"Uncle, I asked you to come here today because I want to fight for a chance for myself. Shengyi and I truly love each other, and I will work hard..."
Ouyang Ming raised his hand to interrupt Xu Yanshu, and said in an unquestionable tone, "No need to say anything more. Perhaps you are indeed a very outstanding child, but you are really not suitable for Shengyi."
Going to your wife's house to confront her at the slightest disagreement is incredibly rude!
Ouyang Ming's impression of Xu Yanshu was originally quite good, but after learning about this, his feelings were immediately diminished.
More importantly, since the lady of the house is in charge, Yao Yao clearly has no intention of approving of Xu Yanshu, so he naturally cannot disagree with her on this issue.
Xu Yanshu never expected the other party's attitude to be so resolute. His face gradually turned ugly, and he unconsciously clenched his hands under the table.
Ouyang Ming had previously thought he and Shengyi were a good match...
Guessing the reason for the other party's drastic change in attitude, Xu Yanshu began to explain, "The previous rumors were a misunderstanding, I can explain it to you..."
"Misunderstanding? Then why do these misunderstandings keep happening?" Ouyang Ming's expression immediately turned even more unpleasant when this topic was brought up. "If you really like Shengyi, you should know how to keep your distance from other women!"
When the rumors about their affair surfaced online, he saw Shengyi hiding in her room wiping away tears more than once, and he felt heartbroken seeing it.
Xu Yanshu was speechless, his thin lips pressed down into a straight line, and he had to admit that he did indeed have an inescapable responsibility.
"Forced relationships are never sweet. Since things have come to this point, you should part ways amicably. It's better for both of you!"
