Chapter 270 Adopting a Daughter
"Yes, yes, Miss Jiang and Mrs. Xiao have somewhat similar temperaments. They are truly a match made in heaven."
"The Xiao family is so good-looking. Young Master Xiao and Miss Jiang standing together look so well-matched."
"If you don't know, you might think they are a family."
Everyone was chattering.
He Zhuoru looked at her boss and Miss Jiang standing together, and they were indeed a good match.
And the boss’s temper.
Just able to take the initiative to stand up.
It can be seen that he has a good impression of Miss Jiang.
He Zhuoru and Xiao Qishan beside her looked at each other.
I had this idea in mind a long time ago.
Xiao Qishan understood.
So he jokingly said, "Mr. Jiang, your daughter is cute and beautiful. Does she have a boyfriend? If not, my eldest son is also single."
Xiao Qishan asked bluntly.
Everyone understood what it meant instantly.
This rich man really doesn't beat around the bush at all and is so efficient.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Mr. and Mrs. Xiao have set their sights on Jiang Ciyou.
I want her to be my daughter-in-law.
Jiang Jinhui naturally understood, but an embarrassed expression appeared on his face.
Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but say, "Jiang Ciyou has been married for a long time, and it's her second marriage. She is a married woman now."
After saying that, he added quietly: "I'm still single..."
People around her were too lazy to pay attention to her and just treated her as a clown.
It was as if He Zhuoru and Xiao Qishan didn't hear her words at all.
Jiang Jinhui glared at Jiang Xiaoxiao fiercely before speaking, "My daughter is already married. I'm sure you two are familiar with her husband. He's Bo Jinxiu from the Bo family in Kyoto."
"Bo Jinxiu?"
A hint of surprise flashed across He Zhuoru's face: "Bo Wanhua's...brother?"
Jiang Jinhui nodded: "Yes."
He Zhuoru's eyes revealed a hint of complexity: "The Bo family..."
The Bo family is not a good place. It is very complicated and the waters are deep.
He Zhuoru looked at Jiang Ciyou with a hint of heartache and regret.
Xiao Qishan chuckled: "Why is it that our Xiao family is always one step behind the Bo family?"
He Zhuoru also smiled with relief.
Then he looked at Jiang Ciyou and said, "I'll call you Xiaoyou. Xiaoyou, to be honest, I feel familiar with you. Your uncle Xiao and I both like you very much. I originally thought that since we have four sons with different personalities, there must be one that you like, but now that you're married, they are really unlucky."
Jiang Ciyou didn't expect that He Zhuoru would say these words without any concealment.
Although Jiang Ciyou felt a little shy, she still replied openly, "It's because I'm not lucky enough to marry four young masters."
He Zhuoru looked at Jiang Ciyou's generous and frank appearance, and liked him more and more.
Speak directly.
"In that case, will you be my goddaughter?"
Jiang Ciyou was stunned again.
Idols are worthy of being idols, they always speak in such unexpected ways.
He Zhuoru grabbed Jiang Ciyou's hand and refused to let go.
Seeing that Jiang Ciyou was in a daze, he was afraid that she was unwilling, so he even began to persuade her.
"You see, we really are destined to be together, aren't we? You know the eldest and third child in our family. I even saved your life when you were a child, and my husband held you in his arms when you were born..."
Jiang Ciyou was a little confused.
At this moment, she suddenly felt very complicated.
He Zhuoru is her idol and the light of her faith for so many years.
It was also the power that encouraged her and helped her get out of the abyss when she was in adversity.
For so many years, Jiang Ciyou has always kept her in his heart.
She has also been paying attention to her news, including her speeches at the United Nations and her work for the welfare of orphans from the lower classes around the world.
She is a great, radiant god.
Jiang Ciyou's biggest dream in life is to see his idol again and ask for an autograph.
Now I have seen my idol.
In less than ten minutes, she actually wanted to adopt me as her goddaughter.
Jiang Ciyou admitted that all this happened too suddenly.
Even someone as calm as her found it hard to cope for a moment.
Moreover, she did have some concerns, as the Xiao family was also a prominent and wealthy family.
Jiang Ciyou seemed to have heard from Bo Jinxiu that the Xiao family and the Bo family also had some connections.
If she is really adopted as a goddaughter, will it have any impact on the two wealthy families?
Of course these are secondary.
Most importantly, Jiang Ciyou felt it was unrealistic.
The idol I have been a fan of for 18 years suddenly wants to adopt me as his goddaughter.
She felt like she was wrapped in a huge bubble, her head was heavy and she was about to float up.
He Zhuoru couldn't help feeling disappointed when she saw Jiang Ciyou looking worried.
But she didn't give up.
She really liked this child, a love that came from the bottom of her heart.
There was a voice deep inside me saying that if I didn't keep her by my side and see her often, I would definitely regret it in the future.
He even thought of a trick, a deception: "Xiaoyou, your uncle Xiao gave you the family heirloom jade locket. That jade locket has been passed down in the Xiao family for generations. The fortune teller said that he has been affected by the karma of the Xiao family, and only the Xiao family can suppress it, so..."
Jiang Ciyou was speechless after hearing this, but also found it a little cute.
How could her idol make up such a feudal and superstitious story just to adopt her as his goddaughter?
Xiao Qishan actually echoed beside him: "Yes, I didn't know when I gave you the jade, so you can only be our Xiao family's goddaughter."
Jiang Ciyou: "..."
Jiang Ciyou turned around and glanced at Xiao Hechuan and Xiao Qinglin beside him.
The two of them nodded reflexively: "Yeah!"
Jiang Jinhui was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
What's going on with Xiao You? The Xiao family is willing to adopt her as their goddaughter.
This is a great fortune for her and the Jiang family.
Why is she still hesitating?
But Jiang Jinhui understood Jiang Ciyou's temper. She would definitely agree to anything she wanted to do. If she was unwilling, it would be useless even if others forced her.
So he could only stand by and worry.
Yao Shulan watched from the side as He Zhuoru chatted with Jiang Ciyou.
I feel very uncomfortable.
The two of them actually look more like mother and daughter.
Ever since Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jiang Ciyou exchanged identities, the mother-daughter relationship between her and Jiang Ciyou has come to an end.
Even now Jiang Ciyou still calls her mother.
It was the kind of indifference that came from deep within her bones, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
In addition, Jiang Xiaoxiao was like a plague god collecting debts all the time, making her exhausted.
He Zhuoru talked for a long time, then asked cautiously, "Xiaoyou, are you unwilling? Actually, if you don't want to, we won't force you."
Jiang Ciyou, who had been silent all this time, suddenly smiled: "I do."
