Chapter 317: One sentence hit the girl's heart
That evening, Taihe Street was bustling with people.
The first discotheque opened grandly near Kunming Railway Station. Duan Yanfei had already run back and forth between the office and the hotel entrance several times.
"Duan Yanfei! Aren't you off work yet?" Han Dixing arrived at the hotel, settled in, talked with his parents for a while, then got up and went downstairs to arrange dinner for the family of three.
Walking down the stairs, Han Dixing saw Duan Yanfei and called out politely.
In the lobby of the Queen Hotel, there were several travelers sitting on chairs with their bags, waiting to check in.
Duan Yanfei is not an employee in the lobby, but he looks very busy.
Hearing the voice, she turned around and met Han Dixing who was walking towards her, and a smile immediately appeared on her face: "Han Dixing, are you going to accompany Dean Han and the others tonight?"
"Well," Han Dixing smiled slightly on his handsome face and said slowly, "During the time my dad came to Kun City, he didn't eat well or sleep well. Like my mom, he lost a lot of weight."
"Hey." Duan Yanfei took a deep breath, looking helpless. "Dean Han was pissed off by your second brother. But the two of them ignored their family's opposition, got married, and ran off to the mountains without caring about Dean Han and the other two."
"Hehe, isn't this the new transfer order given to my second brother by Commander Duan? I can't blame my second brother for this. By the way, does your hotel provide any good food tonight?"
"The restaurant serves dinner tonight, but..." Duan Yanfei rolled her eyes and asked tentatively, "After dinner, I'll take you somewhere."
"...Are you saying that a disco has opened on Taihe Street and you want to go take a look?" Han Dixing's smiling face paused slightly.
This sentence actually touched the girl's heart.
Duan Yanfei nodded quickly, "You must not tell the truth to Dean Han. If they hear that the two of us are going to the dance hall to watch, they might think something wrong."
There was something inexplicably funny about these words coming from the mouth of the daughter of the Duan family.
Han Dixing nodded slightly when he looked at Duan Yanfei.
"That's right. I'll have dinner with my parents later. I'll send them back to the guest room first and then come down to see you."
"Well... I'll take you to the restaurant and order some delicious dishes." Duan Yanfei led Han Dixing straight to the restaurant door next to him. As he walked, hesitating in his mind whether to take the opportunity to inquire about Han Dixing and his girlfriend's free love.
"I heard that you have a girlfriend in your hometown? Or are you in a free relationship?"
Han Dixing's thin figure was slightly stunned, and a faint polite smile appeared on his face: "We broke up years ago."
"Break up?!" Duan Yanfei stopped in her wedge-heeled shoes, looked back at Han Dixing with wide eyes, and said with pretended concern: "Since it's a free love, why break up? Dean Han may have even prepared a wedding for you."
"She was studying in another province and met someone more suitable than me. Last year, during the winter break at school, she should have had time to go home, but she didn't even go back for the Chinese New Year..." Han Dixing hesitated to speak.
It was obvious that he didn't want to talk about his ex-girlfriend with Duan Yanfei.
"Did she find someone whose family was better than Han's?"
Han Dixing was embarrassed and answered: "She said that the man is the son of a professor at their university. After she graduates from university, her in-laws will help her stay in a big city and assign her to work in a big bank."
"Oh! So there are times when you, the men of the Han family, are looked down upon? I wonder what President Han thinks after hearing about this." Duan Yanfei's words were like a knife cutting across Han Dixing's chest.
Han Dixing chuckled, "So what if they know? No matter how good the Han family is, they are just a family with a little wealth in a small county town. They are not capable of going to other provinces to show off."
Looking at the state of his parents now, doesn't it just prove what he said?
This time, the two elders traveled to Yun Province with the purpose of breaking up the marriage of the second brother and his wife, but in the end they still failed to force the second brother to give in...
"Tsk! What you said makes sense. For example, our Duan family only has some reputation in Yixi. If we leave Yixi and go to Shangjing, Han Tingzhang will ignore my brother."
Han Dixing was easily amused by the words of the girl in front of him.
Of course, he was aware of the friendship between the Han family and the Duan family. It was based on the fact that the Han family had two outstanding sons in the army, and the eldest grandson of the Duan family was still the top leader of the Yixi Army. It could be said that the relationship between the two families was mutually restrictive.
Duan Yanfei led Han Dixing to the restaurant and ordered some delicious dishes.
When sending him out, Duan Yanfei suddenly asked, "Han Dixing, do you have a partner now?"
"Hehe, don't be in a hurry. Let's consider these things after a year or two." Han Di said with a polite smile.
"Look..." Duan Yanfei hadn't said all the words she had been holding back yet, but her cheeks were already filled with joy as she said softly, "I don't have a date either, how about we start a relationship?"
Han Dixing waved his hands: "No, this is not in line with the rules of the Han and Duan families."
"What other rules does the Han family have?" Duan Yanfei took a half step closer, with a cluster of anger in his eyes, "Could it be that the Han family despises me for being a girl from the Duan family?"
"That's not the case. You know that I work in my hometown county, and you are in Yun Province. Tell me, if we were to fall in love, who would be willing to give up his or her job and family and go to the other person?"
"..." Duan Yanfei's eyes were dark and unclear, and he looked a little lost.
But she was not defeated by reality so quickly. She mustered up the courage to smile and said, "What do you think of me?"
"Not bad, you are beautiful, you have studied abroad, and you are the daughter of the Duan family! There must be many sons of prestigious families vying to marry you. I know that you liked my second brother before, but my second brother is married now, and you..." Why are you targeting the Han man again?
Han Dixing's eyes turned helpless and he shook his head, "If it's my eldest brother that you're interested in, I think it's a good idea. After we get married, I'll live in Beijing with my eldest brother."
"Stop mentioning Han Tingzhang!"
Duan Yanfei spoke up in a hurry to stop Han Dixing's terrible idea, "Among the three men in your Han family, Han Tingzhang is the most cunning. I don't like men like him."
For some reason, Duan Yanfei couldn't help but shudder when he thought of Han Tingzhang.
She didn't even want to think about it. She was just like her brother Duan Yanzhi, with a hot temper, and she didn't go back on her words. She had no compassion at all.
These words made Han Dixing laugh.
The eldest brother, who always gives people the impression of being strict and fierce, has never done anything to Duan Jia Nizi, but he has already been put on her love blacklist.
Han Dixing returned to his parents' guest room upstairs, "Dad, Mom, both of you get up and wash your faces, then go downstairs to eat. After dinner, you can take a walk on Taihe Street."
"Do you think I'm in the mood to go out for a walk?" After lying in the guest room of the guesthouse for so many days, Han Jianguo's face had lost its former radiant look and looked sick.
Han's mother also sighed and said, "What kind of suffering have your father and I endured? We have to come to such a far place to suffer, but Han Suijing is so good that he ran away by himself."
"Mom, my second brother has a new transfer order. It's not like you don't know what the military transfer order means, right?"
"Well, at this point, your father and I don't expect anything from him anymore. Just take a few days' rest and go home." Mother Han waved her hand, looking resigned.
Han Dixing poured warm water for his parents, handed it to them, and then sat on a chair.
"If it weren't for my second brother and his wife's wedding, you wouldn't have the time to come to Yun Province. Now that you're here, you don't have to rush home. I'll take you to Dali for a vacation in two days."
"Dali? Do you mean to visit the Duan family?"
Suddenly, Han Jianguo's eyes lit up.
Han Dixing then told his parents in a joking tone what he had just said to Duan Yanfei downstairs.
"Haha, I didn't expect Duan Yanfei to actually like Han men!"
Han Jianguo paused for a moment, "Actually, Duan Yanfei is a straightforward girl. If you two could get married, it would be a very good marriage. However, there are many realistic factors at hand, so it's not easy to do."
"If you two are really talking about marriage, there will be regrets no matter what choice you make, but whether it is you or her, you should prioritize your own future." Han's mother said earnestly.
The road ahead is still so long, and if either party is unhappy, they will blame the other for giving up their future.
At that time, the relationship between the two was very fragile.
"Han Dixing, what you said makes sense. Since we are already in Yunnan Province, we don't have to waste some time. Let's go to visit the Duan family in Dali in two days." After thinking for a while, Han Jianguo decided to meet with the Duan family.
Apart from anything else, Duan Yanfei is indeed an ideal candidate for daughter-in-law.
They really don't want to give up.
As for whether she and Han Dixing have that kind of fate, let's wait and see.
The family of three went downstairs to the restaurant to have dinner. Han Jianguo didn't want to stay in the guesthouse, so he took his wife out of the guesthouse.
Duan Yanfei had already run to the door of the dance hall on Taihe Street and bought two tickets.
Seeing the three members of the Han family finally coming out of the hotel, he greeted them with a smile, "President Han! Would you two like to go with us to the front to take a look?"
When Han Jianguo heard that Duan Yanfei invited his younger son to watch the disco that opened on Taihe Street that day, he had already bought tickets.
"Disco?" Han Jianguo frowned.
I just felt it was a bad place.
But Duan Yanfei was also a girl who could read people's expressions. She said something that dispelled the old couple's concerns: "You don't know yet, the owner of this disco has also invited my uncle. Today is so lively, and it's the opening day of the disco. My uncle will definitely come to show his support."
"Then go quickly. Young people should go to trendy places to have fun." Han Jianguo immediately changed his mind and with a kind face urged his younger son to follow the Duan family girl to the dance hall to watch.
The old couple stood at the hotel entrance, watching their youngest son and Duan Yanfei chatting and laughing as they disappeared into the crowd on the street.
"We never thought of them before. Look, Old Han, they are such a perfect couple." Mother Han was happy in her heart, but a hint of sadness appeared on her brows.
Han Jianguo could see his youngest son and Duan Yanfei walking together. They were so harmonious that he couldn't help but say, "Give the Duan family a call tonight to say hello. I haven't contacted them in Yun Province for so many days."
Standing on the street, the old couple craned their necks until they could no longer see their youngest son's back.
At this moment, a car slowly drove past them.
Sitting in the car was Duan Suili, the head of the Duan family.
Duan Suili had already seen the old couple of the Han family standing there, but he seemed not to see them. He leaned back in the back seat, closed his eyes and rested.
"Huh? It looks like the Duan family's car?" Mother Han turned around and glanced inadvertently at the other side of the street, only to find a car driving past them.
Han Jianguo suddenly had an idea, "Maybe Uncle Duan is really here to support the opening of the dance hall. Let's go! Let's go over there and take a look. After all, it's a big city, and they've even introduced foreign discotheques."
The couple had the same idea, they both thought that if they happened to meet Uncle Duan from the family ahead, they could just say hello.
