The youngest was seven or eight years old, and the oldest was Meteor, who was twenty-seven.
They have a strong ability to observe the changing seasons and can roughly deduce a person's inner character from their facial expressions.
After a rough assessment, it seems this is a family banquet hosted by the Liu family. Those gathered here are all related to the Liu family, either directly or indirectly.
Sitting in the main seat is Liu Xing's father, Liu Yansheng.
He said, "Let's eat."
Only then did the others begin to pick up their chopsticks.
During this dinner, Liu Nian noticed that they ate very elegantly and slowly.
This suited her perfectly, as she couldn't eat too much, so she chewed each small bite of food until she couldn't swallow it anymore.
She didn't know how long she ate, but she probably only ate five mouthfuls of rice and two mouthfuls of vegetables before everyone else was full.
Seeing them put down their bowls and chopsticks, she put them down as well.
Meteor looked at her strangely, as if she thought her stomach was a bit exaggerated.
Liu Nian smiled silently at her, and even winked mischievously.
Meteor gave her a helpless smile in return.
Only after the servants had cleared away all the tableware did the man sitting in the head seat speak.
"Today is our Liu family's banquet, which is also our annual family meeting. Everyone is welcome to share their opinions or insights so that we can work together to find solutions."
I knew this would happen over the years; it's a bit boring.
Anyway, she didn't have anything to say, so she just listened to their nonsense.
She could still find a moment to think about what Gu Minhang was doing at that moment.
This family dinner was essentially a set of advice for those in charge of the Liu family in the company or its subsidiaries. The largest shareholder of the Liu family is Liu Yansheng, the father of Liu Xing, and all the other relatives and associates listen to him.
Because of Liu Yansheng, the Liu family exists, and no one dares to oppose him. Even if they covet his position, no one dares to betray him.
It felt like a long time had passed before I finally heard a sentence.
Meeting adjourned!
Then, after Liu Yansheng got up and left first, the group of people left the Liu family in succession.
Liu Nian was asked to stay overnight at Liu's residence that night.
She had no choice but to message Gu Minhang to say that she wouldn't be going back to the suite that night.
Gu Minhang sent her two messages.
:【good】
Are you coming back tomorrow?
Liu Nian lay on the soft bed, looking at the message sent by Gu Minhang.
Liu Nian: [I don't know yet!]
Gu Minhang was gazing out of his floor-to-ceiling window at the bustling traffic below Kyoto when he received the latest news from Liu Nian on his phone.
He pursed his lips, pondered for a moment, and then sent a message to Liu Nian.
【Then come back and tell me, I'll come pick you up.】
Time flies: [Okay!]
It was getting late, and Liu Nian was just about to put down her phone and go to sleep when there was a knock on her door.
"Niannian, are you asleep?" It was a shooting star.
Liu Nian didn't know why she was looking for her at this hour: "Not yet, come in, sister!"
With her permission, Meteor opened the door and came in.
Liu Nian keenly sensed that something was wrong with her.
"Is something on your mind, sister?"
Meteor was surprised that she could see through it, and nodded helplessly: "Dad just told me something."
"What's up?"
In truth, Liu Nian had no feelings for the Liu family. She was just someone who had been parachuted in; the system had simply added her to their subconscious. She didn't have much affection for them.
But Meteor treated her well; at least he genuinely cared for her.
"As you know, my sister is now of marriageable age."
Liu Nian found out that Liu Yansheng wanted Liu Xing to find someone to marry!
"My sister is only twenty-seven years old, how could she...?"
Meteor is exceptionally talented; at a young age, she is already a fashion designer with a good reputation, at least within her circle.
She started her own business right after graduating from university, basically without relying on the Liu family. In just a few years, she has become an outstanding fashion designer. This age is just right. What was Liu Yansheng thinking?
Meteor didn't speak; she remained silent for several minutes before finally speaking.
"Dad wants our family to strengthen the Liu family through a marriage alliance."
Liu Nian understood: "A business marriage?"
The meteor nodded.
"Sister, you didn't agree, did you?!"
After getting to know her over this period of time, in Liu Nian's opinion, Liu Xing belongs to the strong woman type. She would never agree to a business marriage. With her strength, she wouldn't starve even if she rebelled against Liu Yansheng.
Meteor gave a wry smile and said helplessly, "I agree."
fleeting time:"?"
"However, I'll only consider marriage if I get to know the other person well first."
Time flows silently.
Meteor continued, "It's a bit early to talk about this now, you must be sleepy!"
Liu Nian: "Not yet." After thinking for a moment, she asked again, "Sister, is there anything else you want to say?"
The unspoken words of a shooting star are hard to ignore, even if one tries to remain silent throughout the fleeting years.
Meteor did have something to say, but she didn't know how to bring it up.
Time passed without hastening her departure, patiently waiting for her to speak.
After a few minutes of silence, Meteor sighed. "Niannian, how about I send you abroad?"
Liu Nian was shocked! Going abroad! That won't do; she finally managed to get here as an exchange student.
She shook her head violently: "No good."
Meteor had guessed that she would react this way.
Her tone suddenly turned cold: "If you don't go abroad, your father might arrange a business marriage between you and someone from a similarly wealthy family."
Liu Nian stared wide-eyed, her mind racing.
"System! What's going on?!"
The system was unaware of these external troubles and was also puzzled: "Host, this is something outside the plot."
