Wu Yu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly said, "Dad, I know what you mean, but I really don't have any feelings for Jiang Chengyue... I don't want to deceive her feelings for the sake of profit..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiuren waved his hands and retorted disapprovingly: "Feelings can be cultivated slowly! Besides, in a marriage between wealthy families, feelings are often the least important!"
Seeing that Wu Yu wanted to say something, Wu Xiuren continued, "Alright, stop talking! Your sister is already like this now, and you are the only one the Wu family can count on in this generation..."
"Son, in the future, the burden of the entire family will be on you. You must think carefully... Don't go the wrong way!"
After hearing what his father said, Wu Yu didn't say anything in rebuttal. He could only lower his head and hummed softly...
After returning to the room, Wu Yu stood alone in front of the window for a long time. He stared out the window quietly, his thoughts drifting with the snowflakes.
After a moment's silence, he took out his cell phone as if possessed by a ghost, slid his finger across the screen, and found Xia Shige's number.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally mustered up the courage to press the dial button...
******
Because she had been fishing for the whole afternoon, Xia Shige's whole body was filled with the smell of seafood. After she left the space, she hurried to take a shower.
Just as she was blow-drying her hair, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Xia Shige picked up the phone and looked at it, only to find it was an unfamiliar number. She was too lazy to answer it, so she hung up and blocked the number.
After blowing her hair and changing her clothes, Xia Shige walked happily into the kitchen and saw the whole family picking around the box of seafood.
Seeing Xia Shige come in, Sun Yuegui hurriedly greeted him, "You're finally awake, come here quickly! Officer Zhou bought us a box of seafood, it was just delivered, and they're all alive and kicking!"
Every time Xia Shige locked herself in her room, her family thought she was sleeping, so no one disturbed her.
Xia Shige was slightly stunned after hearing what Sun Yuegui said, and blurted out: "Did Officer Zhou buy it?"
Wasn’t this box of seafood bought by Tang Shiqi? Why did it become Officer Zhou again?
Sun Yuegui smiled and nodded, and replied, "Yes, your mother just called me and said that Officer Zhou had someone send a box of seafood over and asked me to open the door to pick it up."
Sun Yuegui didn't believe it at first. There was such a thick snow outside and the roads were blocked. How could anyone deliver goods to her door?
But I didn’t expect that when I opened the door, I actually found a box of seafood at the door!
Even Sun Yuegui herself found it incredible!
Although Xia Shige was still confused, she didn't care too much - no matter who it was, as long as her family could eat delicious seafood!
The family picked and chose, and put different kinds of fish and shrimp into several basins.
As Sun Yuegui was selecting the shrimps, she exclaimed: "These shrimps are really big!"
Grandma Liu also said: "This hairtail fish is also very good, the meat is two fingers thick, this quality is really rare."
Xia Shige smiled happily as she listened to her family's praise. She thought to herself: That's right! I carefully selected these from more than a thousand kilograms of seafood! They are definitely the best of the best!
After a while, the seafood was arranged. The fish and shrimp were packed in eight basins, and the countertop was almost full of space.
Looking at the pile of seafood, grandma said worriedly: "Xiao Zhou bought so much, our family can't eat it all... I see these two fish are still moving, I don't know if they can be kept."
Grandma Liu shook her head and said, "They are all sea fish. They can't survive in fresh water. If you can't finish them, you can put them on the balcony and freeze them."
The family picked and chose, and selected three pots of shrimps and crabs to steam, and put the rest on the balcony to freeze.
At low temperatures, these seafood can stay fresh for a week.
