"That's good." Guan Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. "Xiaobai, listen to your mother. You and Mr. Yan are not suitable. You are not from the same world."
"I like him, I only like him." Guan Jibai didn't give in this time. She could give in on anything except this. "I know we're not worthy, and I also know he might not like me at all. But so what? I like him, that's enough."
"You...why are you like this?" Guan Wanwan couldn't understand at all. "You've only met once. He's not worth it."
"I don't care whether you say it's worth it or not." She even gave him her life in her previous life, and this life is just a repeat.
She didn't want to worry about whether it was worth it.
She was not doing business, she just liked him and was happy to see him. She couldn't control her excitement.
"In short, I don't allow you to meet him. I can agree to anything you ask for, except this one." Unexpectedly, Guan Wanwan showed unprecedented firmness.
The atmosphere between the mother and daughter immediately became tense.
Guan Jibai hadn't expected her mother's attitude to change so drastically. She took a few deep breaths, not wanting to continue the argument. "Can you tell me why? I'm an adult, and I have the right to like whoever I want."
Guan Wanwan tightly grasped the diary in her hand, her body shaking like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind. She opened her mouth several times but finally stopped herself from speaking.
"Anyway, if it's inappropriate, it's inappropriate." She said stubbornly.
"I think we both need to calm down and communicate well. It's late, let's go to bed early!" In the end, Guan Jibai considerately found a way for both parties to ease the situation and returned to the room first.
If you continue talking, the argument will only get out of control.
After the door of her daughter's room was closed, Guan Wanwan collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball. The diary in her hand fell, and the pages fluttered and stopped at a small, scribbled ink painting.
It was clearly a copy by the owner, and it depicted the back of a man wearing brocade clothes and a jade belt, with flying red hair.
Beneath it was Guan Jinqing's flamboyant handwriting: "It's hard to find a long-tailed swallow in a hundred years."

Old Five stood at the gate of Courtyard No. 7 with a smile on his face. He watched the green Hummer park and immediately went up to open the door. "Dear master, welcome home."
Jiang Chen kept rolling his eyes.
Lao Wu started again, why doesn't he go to Hollywood to develop his career? Win a Best Actor award or something.
Yan Xin got out of the car with a stern look on his face, and his whole body exuded a coldness that kept people at a distance.
The smile on Lao Wu's face froze instantly.
What happened to the young master?
Aren’t you going to meet your girlfriend?
Why are you unhappy?
Yan Xin walked quickly ahead, with Lao Wu and Jiang Chen nervously following behind. When they entered the living room, Yan Xin casually took off his windbreaker and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt. Lao Wu immediately asked, "What would you like to drink?"
"A whiskey on the rocks."
"Okay." Now the fifth brother was very sure that the young master was unhappy.
When I came back from the bar to get some drinks, Yan Xin was already looking through a stack of documents.
After taking the wine glass, Yan Xin raised his eyes and asked, "Did you check this?"
"Hmm!" Lao Wu's expression grew more serious. After sending Jiang Chen out to guard the gate, he said, "Actually, someone came to test us right after we got back. At the time, no one thought they'd come as sanitation workers."
Yan Xin leaned back on the red velvet high-back sofa, relaxed, and said coldly: "Sanitation workers are indeed suitable for cleaning up the mess."
Lao Wu asked seriously: "Then what do you want to do? We have not made any progress on the things that the gentleman asked you to do." Returning to their country to invest in construction is one thing, but there are more important things to do.
"I know that this is our Yan family's century-old wish, and my grandfather's lifelong expectations are pinned on this." Yan Xin raised the glass and drank it all in one gulp, his handsome face covered with a layer of frost.
"No one in the Yan family has forgotten, and naturally I won't forget either. But the Yan family has been away from that circle for too long. Now, how many people take me, the Longwei Yan family, seriously?"
