In the study.
Old Jiang is playing chess with Gu Fan.
The two remained silent, their gazes fixed intently on the chessboard, seemingly simply playing a game.
Only after Gu Fan's car was eaten did a smile appear on Lao Jiang's face.
He glanced at Gu Fan and asked, "Has anything unusual happened at school these past few days?"
Gu Fan shook his head: "No, apart from Fei Xuan coming to see Mengmeng, there's nothing else."
He felt that this was the only thing he could talk about openly and honestly.
As for the fact that he ate someone else's daughter, that's something that absolutely cannot be mentioned!
Gu Fan wanted to live a few more years.
There's no way around it; it feels great when you're doing that kind of thing, but you have to face a lot of pressure afterwards.
He also had to be careful not to be discovered by them, which was a test for him.
Old Jiang didn't suspect anything. When the topic of Fei Xuan came up, he said calmly, "That kid Fei Xuan spent some time with my daughter when she was little. I thought there was no affection between them. Who would have thought that he would start pursuing my daughter after returning to China this time?"
Gu Fan calmly replied, "It's nothing more than him being attracted to Mengmeng's beauty."
Old Jiang glanced at him but didn't refute him: "What you said is a bit superficial, but it does make sense. However, Fei Xuan wants to abduct my daughter..."
"I'll be the first to disagree!"
Gu Fan spoke first.
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Old Jiang's eyes, and he nodded with satisfaction: "You did a good job protecting my daughter this time."
Gu Fan humbly replied, "It's what I should do."
Mengmeng is his girlfriend, after all. If a third party gets involved, then he'll be a terrible boyfriend!
Old Jiang said calmly, "I have investigated Fei Xuan's misdeeds abroad over the years. This kid is just a playboy and is not good enough for my daughter!"
He had someone investigate Fei Xuan's activities abroad beforehand.
Good heavens, I was shocked when I checked!
Fei Xuan has actually had five girlfriends, including a foreign one!
He doesn't believe that a guy like that doesn't have some kind of illness.
Gu Fan was also somewhat shocked to hear this; he hadn't expected his father-in-law to have even found out this!
That's pretty awesome!
At this moment, Old Jiang suddenly looked at Gu Fan and said with a half-smile, "By the way, you said Fei Xuan was after my daughter's beauty, what about you?"
Gu Fan was taken aback, then pondered for a moment before truthfully saying, "Uncle, to be honest, Mengmeng is very beautiful, but I had never seen what she looked like before I fell for her."
Later, he also became infatuated with Jiang Yumeng's beauty.
But they are truly in love!
Mutual attraction based on appearance is the foundation, but having feelings for each other is the ultimate weapon!
Old Jiang smiled.
He naturally knew about the acquaintance between Gu Fan and Jiang Yumeng. It has to be said that Gu Fan's timing was also right; otherwise, the two of them would be from two different worlds.
However, since his daughter had already decided on him, he, as her father, couldn't say much.
"Okay, I was just asking casually, you don't need to be so nervous."
Old Jiang smiled and said.
Gu Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, when are you planning to get engaged to my daughter?"
Old Jiang suddenly changed the subject and asked.
Gu Fan was immediately dumbfounded: "Huh?"
Old Jiang frowned upon seeing this: "What? What's with that expression? Does my daughter not deserve you?"
Gu Fan quickly shook his head: "No! Uncle, I didn't mean that. It was just a bit sudden, and I didn't realize it at first."
Old Jiang's expression softened, and he said calmly, "You two are at the age where you need to get to know each other. If you continue dating, you'll just be ordinary lovers without any real status. If you're really in love, why not take things a step further and get engaged?"
Gu Fan hesitated for a moment: "Uncle, we are still in college, and my family may not be able to provide Mengmeng with a better life."
Old Jiang waved his hand dismissively: "What you're saying is all nonsense! So what if you go to university? Some university students are already holding babies!"
"Besides, you don't need any material support. With the Jiang family's vast fortune, are you afraid of suffering?"
"Even if you're incredibly capable, you wouldn't earn a hundred million in ten years, so stop talking nonsense."
Gu Fan scratched his head, feeling both amused and exasperated.
He couldn't refute that.
After all, social competition is so fierce these days, it's hard to even find a job, let alone earn a hundred million.
Moreover, no matter how hard he tries, he can't compare to the Jiang family.
Old Jiang said calmly, "Alright, let's leave it at that for now. See if you're free these next few days, and bring your parents to the capital so we can meet them."
Upon hearing this, Gu Fan nodded seriously: "Okay, I will tell my parents about this."
Old Jiang nodded in satisfaction.
He then looked at Gu Fan and said, "Gu Fan, the reason I'm getting you engaged so quickly is because I don't want my daughter to suffer. If there are any problems in your relationship, my daughter will be the one who gets hurt. Besides, it's also good for you two."
Gu Fan nodded: "Uncle, there's no need to say more. My love for Mengmeng is genuine. Regardless of whether there's a physical relationship or not, I will cherish her and treat her as my one and only."
Old Jiang nodded: "I hope you won't disappoint me."
"General!"
Gu Fan's expression shifted, and his soldiers moved diagonally to block the enemy's general.
"Play a couple more games with me."
"good."
………
I don't know how much time had passed when there was a knock on the study door.
"Come in."
The door opened, and Jiang Yumeng's adorable figure appeared in the doorway. She looked curiously at the scene inside and said, "Don't you get tired of playing chess all the time?"
Old Jiang chuckled and said, "Of course I don't get tired of it; playing chess is a pleasure in itself."
Gu Fan: "..."
Aren't you tired of it? Because you're the one winning, I have to let you have a few wins to make you happy.
Jiang Yumeng seemed to have noticed something and immediately said, "Alright! Stop coming down. Mom cooked some nutritious porridge and asked me to call you down to eat."
"Why drink porridge so late at night?"
Old Jiang was displeased and was about to speak.
"Huh? Who said they didn't want to drink porridge?"
Sister Lin's voice came from behind, and the next second she appeared at the door, arms crossed, staring straight at Old Jiang.
The latter's face stiffened, and sweat immediately beaded on his forehead. He quickly gave an embarrassed smile: "How could that be? I love my wife's porridge the most. I'm hungry, let's go! Let's have some porridge!"
He said this and quickly stood up and walked towards the door.
Their will to survive is off the charts.
Seeing this comical scene, Jiang Yumeng couldn't help but laugh: "Hehe! Daddy's really afraid of his wife!"
Old Jiang blushed and retorted, "What do you mean by being afraid of your wife? I love my wife. Men who love their wives will make a fortune, don't you understand, daughter?"
Jiang Yumeng blinked, a half-smile on her face.
Sister Lin smiled helplessly: "Alright, everyone go down and have some porridge, Xiao Fan, you too."
"Okay, Sister Lin."
Gu Fan nodded obediently.
As Gu Fan passed Jiang Yumeng, he whispered something in her ear:
"I will listen to my wife from now on."
Whoosh!
In an instant, a blush appeared on the girl's face, making her incredibly beautiful.
