Large families are always willing to use things like marriage contracts to consolidate their foundation and status.
According to the setting of the novel, her engagement should be with the male protagonist Shangguan Yuze.
Jiang Qiao didn't know the specific situation.
She only knew that the engagement was just an excuse for Jiang's father and mother to bring her back from Country F.
It was very quiet along the way.
[Wangcai, what is the situation with the fragments of the main god in this world? ]
A blue light board appeared in front of Jiang Qiao.
【Wen Jin.】
Jiang Qiao carefully looked at the information about this person.
Wen Jin can be said to be a transparent person in this novel world, and there is not much introduction about him in the information.
He was Shangguan Yuze's half-brother... He had a mental illness and was not valued by the family. He died at the age of twenty-eight.
Cause of death: died of illness, Shangguan Yuze or unknown.
unknown?
Jiang Qiao glanced at him casually for a few times, curled her red lips slightly, and closed her eyes.
Interesting man.
…
"Miss Leng Bingning, we're here."
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Qiao was woken up.
She was so sleepy after the long journey that she fell asleep.
"Um."
The villa in front of me is romantic and noble, with a hollow carved gate, a Cupid fountain with a literary atmosphere, and patches of roses.
Walking into the villa, the first thing he saw was an extremely luxurious hall. The complicated lighting emitted a cold light, which made Jiang Qiao's eyes hurt.
"Welcome home, Miss."
The servants, dressed neatly in work clothes, bowed humbly in welcome.
Jiang Qiao didn't say anything and continued walking inside with the housekeeper.
…
In the living room.
The woman had cherry lips and almond eyes, and her complexion was delicate and pretty. A closer look revealed that Jiang Qiao looked like her.
Yu Yunshu was sipping red wine elegantly. The sapphire on her wrist, like her, was impossible to ignore, reflecting a faint light.
"Why hasn't she arrived yet? Could it be that our daughter has become estranged from us and doesn't want to come back here?"
The man next to him must have just gotten off work. He was still wearing a suit and had a tough face. He replied, "The housekeeper said he's on the way. Wait."
Jiang Weilin poured himself a cup of tea and calculated the time. Apart from a few brief meetings during a business trip to Country F, he hadn't formally seen his daughter for eight years. He felt really nervous.
Yu Yunshu frowned slightly, her words filled with resentment, "It's all your fault. If you hadn't been careless back then, Qiao Qiao wouldn't have been sent to Country F. Eight years have passed, and you don't even care about your own daughter anymore."
The couple felt a pang of fear when they recalled the incident when Jiang Qiao was kidnapped at the age of ten.
If the lady of the Shangguan family hadn't discovered it in time, Jiang Qiao would have already...
"Why bring this up for no reason? Today is the day Qiao Qiao goes home."
"I understand." Yu Yunshu closed her mouth and put down the red wine. "Do you think... Qiao Qiao will be satisfied with this marriage?"
Jiang Weilin casually hung up a call, "I've met that guy from the Shangguan family. He's quite good. He has a clean family background, good looks, and strong work ethic. He can be considered Qiao Qiao's savior. However, how to describe him depends on whether Qiao Qiao is satisfied or not."
Yu Yunshu nodded in agreement.
She called a servant over and ordered dinner again.
——
When Jiang Qiao came to the living room, he was not restrained, but sat directly next to Yu Yunshu.
She knew that the original owner actually missed her parents very much, and she didn't return home because she was worried about her grandparents.
"Mom, I miss you so much."
Jiang Qiao gave Yu Yunshu a big hug.
This hug made Yu Yunshu a little nervous. She thought her daughter would not be close to her, but it seemed that she was overthinking it.
Yu Yunshu's eyes were slightly red as she looked at the girl in front of her seriously.
The girl is bright and noble, with dazzling light sparkling in her eyes, just like a flower blooming at night, unknown and fascinating.
"Qiao Qiao, Mommy misses you too. You were so young when you left, and the family couldn't leave me. If it weren't for..."
Jiang Qiao was somewhat moved by the sudden crying. She certainly understood that a big family cannot be without a hostess. Yu Yunshu looked glamorous and was the respected Mrs. Jiang by everyone, but in fact, in order to live up to this pride, she had to pay a lot.
"I understand, Mom. I'm hungry."
Yu Yunshu wiped her tears and quickly called Jiang Qiao to the restaurant, chattering non-stop, "You must be starving, mom asked them to make a lot for you..."
Jiang Weilin, who didn't say a word to his daughter: ...No one cares about my feelings?
The housekeeper stepped aside to make way for Jiang Weilin: "Sir, dinner is ready."
Jiang Weilin stood up straight stiffly, "I understand, you go down first!"
Just as the butler was about to leave, the man instructed him again, "Ask Shi Chuan to come back tomorrow."
The housekeeper was startled when he heard the name, "Yes."
——
Dining room.
Yu Yunshu kept picking up food for Jiang Qiao, "Qiao Qiao, eat more, these are your favorites."
"Thank you, Mom."
"Don't be so polite to mom. Eat more."
…
Finally, Jiang Weilin spoke her first words to her daughter.
"Qiao Qiao, you've finished high school in Country F. Dad has already asked the housekeeper to handle the transfer procedures. You can find a time to register at Holy Sakura University. Tell the housekeeper and a driver will take you there."
Shengying University is a famous aristocratic school in S City. You have to be very rich, very prestigious, or very capable, otherwise you can't get in even if you break your head.
Jiang Qiao obviously has all three conditions: she is rich, pretty and capable. The only flaw is that her brain goes haywire whenever she meets the male protagonist.
Seeing Jiang Qiao remained silent, Yu Yunshu thought she was unhappy and glared at her husband, "Why are you talking about school while we're eating? No one dares to say anything if our Qiao Qiao doesn't go to school."
Jiang Qiao came back to his senses and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm willing to go to Shengying University. I was just thinking that I haven't called my grandparents since I got off the plane. They must be worried sick."
As she spoke, she took out her cell phone and made a video call to the two elderly people who were far away in Country F. This time it should be morning in Country F.
The video call was answered quickly.
"Old man, is it Qiao Qiao?"
"yes."
"Give me the phone and let me talk first."
"What did you say first? Qiao Qiao called me, so of course I should speak first."
In the end, the old lady snatched the phone away and said, "Qiao Qiao, how is it going? Did you have a smooth return home? Please settle the engagement as soon as possible and come back after that. Grandma misses you."
The old lady was not satisfied with this marriage. Both parties had never met each other, so how could she let her granddaughter marry him with confidence?
She got angry when she talked about this, "Qiao Qiao, give your dad the phone and let me talk to him."
Jiang Weilin shrank his neck and greeted the phone, "Mom, you are..."
"Boy, let me tell you, no one can force Qiao Qiao. If she doesn't like you, you and Yun Shu should cancel the engagement."
"Mom, I know. If Qiao Qiao doesn't like it, of course no one can force her."
"Humph! Let Qiao Qiao come back soon."
