Chapter 201 Extra 1 A Family of Four
In 1995, Zhang Shiye was 41 years old. At that time, he was already the president of the largest hotel chain in Shanghai and the chairman of Haitian Group. Haitian Group covered a wide range of areas, and its products were sold at home and abroad. The Will brothers were responsible for overseas business.
Xia Wanyang is already a distinguished professor at Fudan University. Her finance classes are always full. Not only do students have to fight for seats, but even teachers from the department come to audit.
Xia Wanyang, now 39 years old, has hardly changed from when she was 20 years old. Time seems to have been particularly kind to her. Not only has it not left any traces on her face, but there is not even a trace of fine lines.
Today she was wearing a white shirt and jeans, with the hem of her shirt tucked into her trousers. She had a Chanel-style suit jacket on the outside, and her jet-black hair was casually tied behind her head. But this casual combing made her look even lazier, like a college student who was rushing to class without waking up.
It was her class again today. After she finished, the students urged her to stay, saying that they had more questions. Xia Wanyang looked at the time. There was a banquet tonight, and she also needed to try on dresses. The makeup artist would need an hour to do her styling.
"Okay, classmates, if you have any questions, please ask them now!"
The students began to raise their hands enthusiastically, and Xia Wanyang randomly pointed at a boy. The boy was handsome and tall, and was a famous handsome boy in the Finance Department.
The boy stood up and coughed dryly, "Professor Xia, I want to ask you, do you mind finding a partner younger than you?"
The classmates made "oh~" sounds. Xia Wanyang looked up at him and said casually, "I don't mind, but my husband should mind."
Xia Wanyang attended three classes a week at school and almost left right after class. She did not have much contact with the teachers in the department, so others could only guess about her situation.
The classmates didn’t expect that Professor Xia was actually married, and the male classmates felt their hearts were broken.
At this time, a female classmate slammed her book on the table and stood up. "Do you have any more questions? If you do, please don't waste Professor Xia's time asking these meaningless questions. Look at you, you haven't even grown all your hair yet. You don't focus on your studies all day long, but just think about nonsense!"
Xia Wanyang curled the corners of her mouth slightly and said, "Class is over," but she was in no hurry to leave.
Several classmates who usually didn't get along with the girl started shouting:
"What's wrong with Fang Xu asking a question?"
"That's right, do you like Fang Xu, so you are jealous of him asking Professor Xia questions about small objects?"
"Look at how you get dissatisfied with this and that every day. What do you have to be proud of?"
Zhang Jinyue rolled her eyes. "I am just proud. What can you do to me? Come and bite me if you don't agree? You finally got into a university. How can you be worthy of your parents' efforts if you don't study hard?"
Xia Wanyang smiled and said, "Yueyue, come with mom!"
The classroom was suddenly silent. Mom? Professor Xia is Zhang Jinyue's mother? No, how old is Professor Xia? How old is her daughter?
Some students reacted first and asked, "Professor Xia, do you have a daughter as old as us?"
Xia Wanyang pulled Zhang Jinyue to her side, picked up the book and looked at everyone, "Yes, Zhang Jinyue is my daughter. I have more than one daughter your age. I also have a son your age who is serving in the army, so don't ask personal questions in class in the future!"
The mother and daughter walked out of the school together. Xia Wanyang looked at her graceful daughter beside her and said, "Yueyue, you still have to get along well with your classmates. Otherwise, what will you do if others isolate you?"
Zhang Jinyue snorted, "I don't want to have anything to do with them. In the dormitory, they're either discussing which boy is handsome or who wrote a love letter. It's so boring."
A luxury car stopped at the school gate. Seeing the mother and daughter coming over, Zhang Shiye got out from the back seat. The first thing that caught the eye was a pair of shiny leather shoes. Then looking up, one could see that he was wearing a well-tailored gray suit that fit his body perfectly, showing the proportions of his broad shoulders and slender legs.
He placed one hand on the back door, his posture elegant and natural, revealing a kind of confidence and calmness, while the other hand was slightly raised, revealing a valuable watch on his wrist. The dial was inlaid with exquisite diamonds, showing his taste and wealth.
"Honey, are you tired from the class?"
Zhang Jinyue ran over and said in surprise: "Dad, are you coming to pick me up?"
Zhang Shiye glanced at her and said, "Don't be so self-indulgent. Don't you have long legs? I'm here to pick up your mother. You're just borrowing my light."
Zhang Jinyue sat in the passenger seat angrily and slammed the door.
Xia Wanyang came over, Zhang Shiye took the bag consciously, stepped aside, and helped his wife into the car.
"Why are you here? I have to go home and try on my dress for the evening. Go ahead and do your work!"
Zhang Shiye grabbed her hand and held it. "I'm here to pick you up. After trying on the dresses, I'll help you put on makeup. Do you want to apply the nail polish I brought back for you last time in Hong Kong City? I'll also ask the makeup artist to help you put it on?"
Xia Wanyang shook her head. "I still have to go to class. How can I paint my head in such bright colors?"
Zhang Shiye glanced at the passenger seat and curled his lips. Why did this light bulb come up here? It was hard for him to comfort his wife. He could only lean over and whisper in her ear, "Then I'll apply it on your feet when we get home. Just let me watch it, okay?"
Xia Wanyang also imitated him and leaned over to his ear and replied: "Okay, I'll put it on for you too, and we'll dress up together!"
The numbing sound flowed into his ears, and Zhang Shiye trembled all over, and mouthed: "Don't hook me!"
After returning home, Xia Wanyang took her daughter inside, and Zhang Shiye followed behind with a look of grievance on his face. If Xiao Yueyue didn't come, he would be the one standing next to her!
The fashion designer and makeup artist were waiting at home early. Zhang Shiye hired a chef and two nannies to take care of Xia Wanyang. He often had to go abroad in recent years, and Xia Wanyang couldn't go with him because she had classes, so he was very worried before each departure. Later, He Hua suggested that he hire a few people back, and then he stopped pestering her to go abroad with him.
Xia Wanyang's dress was a silver cheongsam with a shawl on the outside, which made her look noble and elegant, like the twinkling silver stars in the night sky.
She wore a dazzling emerald jade necklace on her slender and fair neck, and her earlobes were adorned with earrings of the same style as the necklace. As she swayed gracefully, she sparkled with charming light, bringing out her beauty to the fullest.
Zhang Shiye's eyes flashed with surprise. He stood up and pulled her into his arms, saying sullenly, "I don't want to go. Can you just wear it for me?"
Xia Wanyang pushed him away, "Go away, I still have to put on makeup, don't waste my time."
Zhang Jinyue came out of the room wearing a princess dress and asked excitedly, "Mom and Dad, do I look good in this?"
Zhang Shiye replied perfunctorily: "It looks good, it looks good."
Zhang Jinyue walked over and turned his face to look at her, "Dad, can you take a look before you answer? Your eyes are almost glued to Ms. Xia. You are so old, can you restrain yourself a little?"
Zhang Shiye took her hand away, "How old are you? Am I old? No matter how old I am, I am still your father. What's the point of me praising you? You should save it for your husband to praise you in the future!"
