There was joy in Shen Chuxia's tone.
"Okay, then we..."
Before he could finish his words, there was a knock on the door, and Lin Xuan on the other end of the phone could hear it clearly.
"Xiao Xia, do you have time? Dad wants to talk to you about something."
Shen Chuxia was stunned and glanced at her phone.
"Is it something urgent? I'm thinking of going out for a while."
"It's better to do it now. It won't take long. How about you postpone what you're doing?"
After his father said so much, Shen Chuxia had no choice but to nod.
"I have something to do here, so I guess we'll have to meet later. I'll contact you later."
Shen Chuxia’s voice was a little disappointed.
I am still looking forward to meeting Mingxuan, but plans cannot keep up with changes.
"Okay, Sister Chuxia, you go ahead and do your work. We'll contact each other later."
After Lin Xuan said this, Shen Chuxia felt a little better.
A few minutes later, Shen Chuxia followed Shen Zhengting to the study.
"Dad, is there something important that needs to be discussed in the study? Didn't you say it wouldn't take long?"
Shen Zhengting pointed at the sofa.
"Please sit down first and let's talk slowly."
"It won't take long, but it's serious."
Shen Chuxia sat opposite Shen Zhengting, her face full of curiosity.
"Uncle Zhou came to the company to see me. You already know about this, right?"
"I know. Didn't you tell me that on the phone?"
"He contacted me again later and, in addition to expressing his gratitude, mentioned another matter."
Before Shen Chuxia could speak, Shen Zhengting continued.
"The Zhou family wants to settle the matter between Zhou Hengbei and you. Do you have any objections?"
Shen Chuxia had a calm expression before, but after hearing what Shen Zhengting said, she immediately stood up.
"I have an opinion!"
"I don't agree!"
Before, the matter between herself and Zhou Hengbei had never been brought to the table by her father, and Shen Chuxia was not in a position to express her opinion.
Now that it has been put on the table, Shen Chuxia will naturally refuse.
She and Zhou Hengbei had no feelings for each other at all, and it was even more impossible for her to marry him!
Shen Zhengting was also a little surprised.
It can be seen that his daughter and Zhou Hengbei get along very well, but Shen Zhengting never expected that Shen Chuxia would refuse so bluntly.
Fortunately, this was not said when the two families met.
Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing.
At this moment, Shen Chuxia's little mouth was tightly closed, and her face was full of resistance.
"Don't be so anxious. Tell me why you rejected him."
Seeing that her father did not insist on opposing her, Shen Chuxia's mood also eased a little.
However, when talking about the reasons why she looked down on Zhou Hengbei, Shen Chuxia still did not look happy.
"Dad, you know Zhou Hengbei is uneducated and has the habits of a playboy."
"Even though the Zhou family has a lot of money, with his behavior, he'll squander even a mountain of gold and silver!"
"Also, I don't think I'm old enough to get married now, Dad. I haven't even finished college yet, so why are you in such a hurry?"
"If I really wanted to accept Zhou Hengbei, I would have agreed at the business dinner that day. Why would I wait until now?"
After listing the reasons, Shen Chuxia began to question Shen Zhengting again.
"Dad also thinks you are still young, but Xiaoxia, although what you said makes sense, there is one thing you overlooked."
"For a family like ours, marrying just for love is a luxury."
"As a member of the Shen family, I have responsibilities on my shoulders."
Shen Zhengting didn't make his words very clear, but he believed that his daughter was very intelligent and she couldn't possibly not understand the meaning of his words.
"So for the prosperity of the family, Dad decided to arrange a marriage for me and marry someone I don't like?"
"Emotions can be cultivated slowly."
"But if that person is a hopeless case, should I gamble my life on him? Dad, besides Zhou Hongwei, there are many outstanding young people in this world!"
Shen Zhengting knew what Shen Chuxia was thinking.
When the Shen family held a business dinner, Shen Zhengting had already started to pay attention to the young man named Lin Xuan.
Although Lin Xuan is the real young master of the Lin family, he really doesn't look down on the Lin family's financial situation.
Shen Chuxia had a stubborn look on her face and a determined gaze.
He had even made up his mind that if his father continued to ask, he would tell his father about Lin Xuan.
At this time, Shen Zhengting suddenly changed the subject.
"Okay, Dad knows what you mean."
"Let's not talk about this matter for now. Go and do your thing."
Shen Chuxia was puzzled, her face full of confusion.
But no matter how she observed, Shen Chuxia couldn't see anything from Shen Zhengting's face.
Thinking that she would see Lin Xuan again, Shen Chuxia nodded and then walked out of the study.
Now that I have made my attitude clear, this matter should come to an end.
Before she even reached the bedroom, Shen Chuxia dialed Lin Xuan's number again and arranged to meet in half an hour.
It was supposed to be a nice date, but Zhou Hengbei's incident made people feel heavy.
After seeing Lin Xuan, although she tried hard to hide her depressed mood, Shen Chuxia still couldn't be happy.
"Sister Chuxia, what happened to you? We are allies, we share happiness and difficulties together."
Lin Xuan sat on a chair in the park, swinging his legs leisurely.
Shen Chuxia sighed helplessly.
Finally, he recounted his conversation with his father.
"Marriage? I didn't expect a family like yours to be so feudal. The family rules are too authoritarian."
