Chapter 364 The man asked to give birth to a son before getting the marriage certificate!
Huo Sijiao noticed her expression and hurried over. She immediately saw the message on her phone screen, which was from Shu Xue.
"Help!"
Huo Sijiao took a closer look and asked, "Sister-in-law, what happened to Sister Shu? Ask her where she is now. We can just deliver the bag to her. She will definitely be very happy."
"good."
Qiao Xi sent a message to Shu Xue asking her where she was.
Shu Xue took several minutes to give a location, but the voice message she was sending was terminated.
Qiao Xi only heard her say: Give me a call...
What are you fighting for?
Huo Sijiao asked doubtfully, "Did something happen to Sister Shuxue?"
Qiao Xi thought that Shu Xue was not on duty today. She had mentioned before that she would have dinner with Qin Yuan's family this week, and the parents of both sides would sit down to discuss the engagement.
She took a look at the location and saw that it was a restaurant.
"Crescent Court Restaurant?"
After paying the bill, Young Master Sun heard her mention the name and asked, "Are you going over for dinner? I've been attending the trial all morning, and I'm hungry. While Crescent Pavilion isn't high-end, it's exquisite and luxurious, and it's nearby."
As a native of Haicheng, Sun Shao is very familiar with eating, drinking and having fun.
"It's past midnight now, so it should be peak time. I know the owner of this place, and he can make room for us in a private room."
When Qiao Xi heard this, she said, "Then let's go. Young Master Sun, please lead the way."
"Okay. I'm telling you, the food here isn't particularly delicious, it's just the innovative dishes that are novel. Those petty bourgeoisie just like to show off here. Just try the signature dishes and forget about the others."
Sun Weimeng said as he walked, "Just turn left after leaving the mall and it's a hundred meters away."
Huo Sijiao and Qiao Xi followed him and walked behind him. Huo Sijiao asked softly, "Sister-in-law, is there something wrong?"
Qiao Xi sent Shu Xue several messages in a row but she didn't reply. Her heart sank. "I don't know. She was having dinner with her blind date's family, and now she hasn't even replied."
Huo Sijiao rolled her eyes and said, "Just go and see. You'll meet a lot of weird people on a blind date. Who knows if she'll be that unlucky. Sister-in-law, why don't you give her a call and try?"
"Um."
Qiao Xi called Shu Xue, but the phone was turned off.
"Jiaojiao, I can't get through."
"Sister-in-law, there must be something wrong!"
Who has a blind date dinner but can’t get through on the phone?
Sun Weimeng also heard something was wrong, and the three of them quickly walked out of the shopping mall carrying bags from several brand stores.
Crescent Pavilion is nearby, and its huge sign is particularly eye-catching.
It looks noble and classy when people see it, but in Sun Shao's eyes it is nothing.
When he walked into the restaurant, the front desk recognized him and knew that he was a good friend of the boss. So they warmly entertained him and even arranged a private room for him.
Young Master Sun casually glanced around the lobby and asked, "Business is good today. Are all the private rooms reserved? My friend is having dinner here, and I want to go say hello. She's here with her parents and her boyfriend's family. Does anyone know which private room she's in?"
Qiao Xi reminded quietly: "Qin Yuan."
Young Master Sun played along and said, "Her boyfriend's name is Qin Yuan. Can you guys help me find him?"
He acted as if it was a matter of course, and the front desk clerk didn't dare refuse. After all, the bosses of Xinyue Pavilion were all trying to curry favor with Young Master Sun, so how could they refuse such a request?
Besides, this is a restaurant, not a hotel that pays so much attention to protecting guests' privacy.
"Young Master Sun, Mr. Qin Yuan has reserved the small private room at 205. Let me take you there."
Sun Shao took one look and said, "Then please make room for me in the small private room 208."
"Okay, I'll arrange it for you right away."
The private rooms in Crescent Pavilion are separated by odd and even numbers, and 208 is next to 205. After the waiter arranged everything for Sun Weimeng, he took the three of them to the corridor. The decoration style here is all neo-Chinese, and it has a great atmosphere.
"Please, three of you. Here is the menu."
"You go down first. We can place the order directly on our mobile phones. Don't bother us if you don't have anything else to do."
"Okay, Mr. Sun."
The waiter was sent away by Sun Weimeng.
Sun Weimeng closed the mahogany door directly and asked Qiao Xi and Huo Sijiao to eavesdrop.
The two private rooms are separated by a mahogany wall, which is decorated with carved and hollowed-out patterns, so the sound insulation is not very good.
If the volume is a little louder, you can hear it clearly.
…
In the adjacent box 205, the atmosphere was a bit unusual.
Shu Xue and Qin Yuan sat together, their parents facing each other. Qin Yuan's parents looked very strong. His mother was well-dressed, but her cheeks were not fleshy, which made her look a bit mean.
His father looked kind, but it was obvious that the hostess was the one in charge of the Qin family.
On the other side sat Shu Xue's parents. They looked like honest and traditional people. They were small clerks who had lived peacefully in the system all their lives. They didn't have any big wishes and just hoped that their daughter could find a partner and get married.
Mother Qin took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Our Qin Yuan is a handsome man, and he's always popular wherever he goes. I originally thought that boys weren't in a hurry to get married, and that they could still choose. But he likes your Shu Xue, so as parents, we have no choice but to settle the matter as soon as possible."
"Oh, it is."
Shu Xue's mother nodded repeatedly. "My daughter is also obedient and sensible. She and Qin Yuan are a perfect match. These two are destined to be together."
Upon hearing this, Mother Qin said, "As for the betrothal gift, our family will provide 288,000 yuan. We will also take care of the bride's banquet. As for the three or five gold items, let Shuxue go to the gold shop and choose whatever she likes."
Shu Xue's parents didn't expect the man to be so easy to talk to. He actually took the initiative to mention the betrothal gift and the three golds, and also wanted to cover the entire wedding banquet for the woman.
Satisfied smiles appeared on their faces.
Shu Xue bit her lips tightly, feeling a sense of sadness in her heart.
Treating marriage as a business transaction at the dinner table, she originally wanted to send a text message to Qiao Xi, asking her to call her and ask her to leave, thus ruining the dinner.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yuan took the phone away and turned it off.
She was fidgeting.
Qin Yuan reached out, held her hand, and whispered, "Both parties have reached the stage of discussing marriage. Are you still thinking about Zhou Yu?"
"I don't."
"Who are you texting then?"
"I didn't send it to Zhou Yu. I blocked all his contact information a long time ago."
Shu Xue frowned. Ever since Qin Yuan caught her that night, her relationship with him had changed. He hadn't canceled the blind date, but had instead single-handedly pushed for today's dinner.
It looked like he was going to marry her, but she didn't feel any warmth at all.
Zhou Yu's words always came to her mind. Qin Yuan came for her and the connections of Tianyuan Group from the beginning. He wanted to use her as a stepping stone to get a promotion and a raise.
Hold on to this connection!
You may even save yourself ten years of hard work.
She sat there distractedly, then she heard Qin Yuan's mother say, "Our man's conditions are good enough, but he has one request."
She folded her arms and looked at Shu Xue and her parents with a strong expression, then said with a smile, "Our Qin family has been a single-line family for three generations. As a mother, I have to consider my son. We can hold the wedding first, but getting the marriage certificate..."
"Shu Xue must give birth to a son before she can get the marriage certificate!"
