In September, Shen Subai had not returned yet.
Xie Yunshu gradually became a little impatient, but she had something new to do. The Haicheng Architectural Design Competition that Professor Chen mentioned before had begun. Ji Siyuan had changed his major, so he naturally couldn't participate. So she became the only student in the night university who went to compete with the Haida University.
When Zhou Meizhen heard about this, she moved all the architecture books used by Ji Sian at home to Xie's house and said, "Take all these away. Godmother will drive you to the competition. You will definitely get a good place."
She is not as gentle as Li Fenlan, nor as cheerful as Su Qinglian. She is a thoughtful and sensitive person. After losing her daughter, she became even more vulnerable. If it weren't for Xie Yunshu's appearance, Zhou Meizhen might have really been obsessed with recognizing Nian Peng.
The success of this matter last season was thanks to Xie Yunshu, so he took the initiative to ask about her marriage: "When will you and Shen Subai get married? We can also prepare in advance."
Li Fenlan might not be able to prepare for the wedding by herself, but it was different with the Ji family. They wanted to marry off their daughter in a grand manner.
The wedding was originally scheduled for October, but now Chen Subai has not returned. He has only called her once during this period, telling her to wait for him with peace of mind. She must be worried, but she can't just leave and go to Hong Kong City to find him.
Xie Yunshu was a little worried: "He hasn't come back yet."
If according to their plan, Shen Subai would have returned from Zhucheng by this time, and would have gone to Beijing during the National Day, and then got the marriage certificate, held the wedding in Beijing first, and then returned to Haicheng for another one.
It was Li Fenlan's idea to go to Beijing to get the marriage certificate, and she was very persistent on this matter.
Although the Shen family had always been very enthusiastic about this marriage and got along well with Su Qinglian's in-laws, Li Fenlan was particularly cautious about her daughter's second marriage after the previous failed marriage.
On the one hand, she was worried that the Shen family would look down on Yunshu, and on the other hand, she was worried that Shen Subai would stay in Haicheng and make the Shen family have opinions. So Li Fenlan thought that the two of them must go to Beijing to get the marriage certificate, and they couldn't put themselves first in everything just because the man was easy to talk to.
Xie Yunshu didn't think too much about it. It didn't matter where they got the marriage certificate. She and Shen Subai would still live together in the future.
After listening to Xie Yunshu's words, Ji Chenggong exchanged glances with his son, and then said: "What is Su Bai doing? I know a few friends in Hong Kong City, and I can help you find out the situation there."
Zhou Meizhen was a little dissatisfied after hearing this: "What do you mean by help? Yunshu is our daughter. Isn't it your duty to inquire about your son-in-law?"
In fact, in this family, only Zhou Meizhen regards Xie Yunshu as her daughter. She may be looking at Xinxin through her, but this kind of concern is indeed real. Xie Yunshu doesn't like to be someone's substitute, but since she agreed to come, she will not worry about this issue anymore.
As the goddaughter of the Ji family, she is actually the one who takes advantage. Of course, one cannot have both.
Ji Chenggong was always very polite to her. After being criticized by Zhou Meizhen, he just smiled and said, "You are right. This is what we should do as parents."
Zhou Meizhen laughed at this. She had thought about this before. When Xinxin was going to get married, she would definitely find out everything about the man. What was his family background, what was his character like, and whether he was sincere to Xinxin?
Her daughter, whom she had raised as a treasure since childhood, could not bear the slightest bit of grievance.
Xie Yunshu shook his head: "I only know it's a foreign trade deal, I don't know anything else."
Every time she thought she understood Shen Subai well enough, she would find that she was wrong, and she still didn't understand Shen Subai well enough. She didn't know who his partner in Zhucheng was, nor did she know what his business was.
I only know the two words: foreign trade.
Zhou Meizhen frowned, "You two are both going to get married, why would he hide anything from you?"
Xie Yunshu quickly denied: "That's not the case, I didn't ask him."
She still didn't seem to be proactive enough. He knew her very well and even gave her advice, but she never thought about caring about what he did...
"Go check it out." Zhou Meizhen glanced at Ji Chenggong and Ji Sian: "Your daughter is getting married, why don't you care at all?"
The two men were implicated innocently, but they had no choice but to accept it.
Ji Siyuan sat on the sofa over there and said with a sigh: "Mom, Shen Subai is a smart guy, he won't encounter any danger."
Who is so blind as to play tricks on him? Isn't that courting death?
Zhou Meizhen still frowned: "Marriage is such a big thing, of course we have to be careful!"
She completely forgot that before she met Xie Yunshu, Xie Yunshu had been talking about marriage with Shen Subai. And she was just a godmother who had just met her not long ago, while Xie Yunshu had her own mother...
Ji Chenggong felt helpless, but he could only respond: "I'll call Zhucheng later and ask some old friends to find out."
In Hong Kong in 1987, the entertainment industry was very developed, which was completely different from the inland areas.
For example, when discussing business in the mainland, everyone goes to a formal guesthouse, but here, the place where Shen Subai was invited to go is a bar.
There were bright lights and wine, and men and women were dancing close to each other in the dance floor. There was explosive music playing, and the atmosphere of decadence and luxury was everywhere.
"Mr. Shen, since you come to my place, I will definitely treat you well." Opposite him sat a man in his thirties, wearing a loose shirt, holding a cigar in his hand, and holding a woman in a suspender skirt in his arms.
Shen Subai also knew that woman. She was Ji Xiao, who signed the contract with him in Zhucheng.
After he finished speaking, he patted Ji Xiao's waist and said, "Go sit opposite and pour a glass of wine for Mr. Shen."
Ji Xiao sat over obediently, her eyes seductive, and handed over the wine glass with her red lips printed on it: "Boss Shen, give me some face?"
Shen Subai remained calm on the surface, but he was actually very annoyed. He had been in Hongcheng for more than a week, but the other party was reluctant to sign the contract. The two sides had been arguing back and forth, dragging it on for so long, otherwise he would have gone to Beijing North with Yunshu at this time.
"Zheng Xian, I'm not feeling well and I'm allergic to alcohol."
He lied calmly, then moved away from Ji Xiao with an apologetic smile on his face: "I'm a little allergic to perfume, too. Please don't mind, Miss Ji."
Ji Xiao had seen Shen Subai drinking with his friends when she was in Zhucheng, and now he was lying so openly. In the end, he just looked down on her!
Mr. Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Ji Xiao, it seems that you are not in Mr. Shen's eyes. In this case, go and play with the people in front."
In one sentence, Ji Xiao's face turned pale. She looked at Shen Subai as if asking for help, and her charming face was full of pleading: "Boss Shen, I'll follow you tonight, okay? It seems that our cooperation in Zhucheng is quite pleasant..."
She seemed to be glamorous on the surface, but in fact, she was just one of the women kept by Mr. Zheng. He would give her glory when he was willing to, and when he was not willing to give her glory, he just treated her as an object.
But now, Mr. Zheng used her as a tool to win over Shen Subai. If Shen Subai looked down on her, her situation would be miserable.
