"The way your family invites guests is really...very...special!"
Bao Junyi looked helpless. In this kind of environment, business wars were everywhere. It was all because he got drunk last time and couldn't control himself, which led to him getting into trouble. He hadn't experienced the whole process yet, which was so uncomfortable.
Thirty minutes later.
Bao Junyi was taken to a classical castle in the suburbs. The surrounding area was very large and was filled with various rare plants and flowers. The servants were busy working and cleaning in an orderly manner.
Entering the castle, you will find that the interior decoration is very luxurious, with a style similar to that of European aristocrats, elegant and gorgeous, highlighting the nobility of the owner.
Bao Junyi walked for about ten minutes and was taken by Robert into a spacious study. There he found an old man in his eighties and a middle-aged man in his fifties. Lucy was standing quietly beside them. When she saw Bao Junyi coming, her big eyes blinked happily like light bulbs.
Bao Junyi came in and the old man called him to sit next to him. He said, "Young man, your name is Bao Junyi, right? You are doing very well in the miracle game."
"You should be Lucy's grandfather, right? I heard Lucy mention you. In front of the Morgan family, your little business is just a small business."
"No, no, I've heard from Robert about your company. It's a very good one. Moreover, the annual profit is almost one-tenth of what I make from oil sales. It's pretty good."
"Haha, when we were in college, we created this company just to gain experience and make some extra money. We never thought it would develop into such a great company."
Old Morgan smiled and looked at Bao Junyi meaningfully for a while before saying, "You should have guessed why I called you here this time. Yes, it's about Lucy."
"We have no objection to you being together, but we have two conditions."
Bao Junyi was also surprised. If he was with Lucy, many things would be much easier in the future, including acquiring companies and purchasing advanced technological equipment. However, the conditions would definitely not be low.
Bao Junyi pondered for a moment before saying, "Please tell me, which two conditions?"
Lucy's father said, "It's very simple. First, you must become an American citizen. Second, your entire group must relocate to the United States and settle down here to develop."
Bao Junyi immediately stood up and said, "Impossible! My family is all over there. I can't become an American citizen, let alone move the group here. However, I can open a branch and build a factory."
"If that's the case, we won't agree to you being with Lucy, after all..."
Bao Junyi said coldly: "Uncle, you are also Lucy's father. I like her, but I have a bottom line as a person. This bottom line is also a red line. I don't allow anyone to touch it. I hope you can understand."
Patriarch Morgan smiled and said, "I know. There's an old Chinese saying: A dragon has a reverse scale. If you touch it, you'll die."
"However, this is our only requirement. Due to many factors, our family is sparsely populated. Therefore, even if you are together, you must marry into our Morgan family. Currently, there are only a dozen or so people in the Morgan family."
"I'm sorry, I can't agree to this. After all, I'm the only male in our Bao family. If I marry into your family, our Bao family's incense will be cut off. This goes against our ancestors' wishes, and I absolutely cannot accept it."
The atmosphere now cooled down and everyone was silent.
At this time, Lucy said: "Bao, didn't you say you would be responsible for me? Can't you make some sacrifices for me?"
"Lucy, you are very beautiful and my type, but we Chinese cannot forget our ancestors and go against our conscience, so I cannot give in. I'm sorry."
Old Morgan said, "Lucy, you've seen it too. He doesn't really love you, so you should just give up. This kind of person is not suitable for you."
When Lucy heard Bao Junyi say "I'm sorry" and that he couldn't give in, she felt a sudden pain in her heart. Her eyes turned red, and she tried to stop herself from crying.
"Bao, do you know? Ever since we separated last time and I returned to the family, I've been begging Dad and Grandpa to agree to our being together. I tried everything, and it took them half a month to agree. Can't you just give in for me?"
Bao Junyi said sadly, "Lucy, you don't understand Chinese culture. Your father and his friends asked such harsh questions. No Chinese person would agree to this!"
"It's not that difficult. We're just moving your household registration to the US, relocating your company, and marrying into our family. Don't you have several older sisters? Can't you inherit the family business?"
"Yes, what you said may seem simple to you, but those who understand Chinese culture may think it is very difficult. Old man, am I right?"
Bao Junyi continued, "You don't want me to be with Lucy at all, so you raised this difficult question to make me back off."
"Bao, you are not allowed to blame my grandfather. He has been helping us to be together from the beginning to the end. Moreover, he was the one who helped me convince Dad."
"Very good, then Lucy, are you willing to come with me to live and settle in Hong Kong?"
"If you are willing to come and settle down and live with me, I can agree to marry you immediately." Bao Junyi said seriously.
Lucy didn't agree immediately. She glanced at his father and grandfather before saying, "I can't settle down in Hong Kong. My father and grandfather are old, and I only have one brother at home who needs my company."
"Bao, you're different. You have several sisters and can often accompany your father. I'm different."
Bao Junyi said disappointedly: "Lucy, since you also know that I am the only male in the Bao family, it is impossible for me to immigrate, let alone marry into the family."
"Bao, can't you forget Diana? That's why you find this excuse to refuse to be with me?" Lucy stared at Bao Junyi angrily with tears in her eyes.
