Father Xue was speechless. "You are the director of the department at least. You are so smart at work, why do you become so stupid when it comes to your daughter? Jingxuan and Lingxue are in the UK, Zhiyang is in the US, Zhiyang knows Lingxue's movements clearly, but Jingxuan knows nothing about it. Isn't this a problem?
Although it is an arranged marriage, I also hope that the two of them can be happy. If there is no love, they can slowly cultivate it. But in the current situation, it is probably hanging in the balance."
He only has this one daughter, so naturally he hopes that she can live as happily as possible.
Xue's mother's face tensed. It was not that she didn't know or didn't have suspicions, but she subconsciously ignored it and didn't dare to think too much, for fear that her suspicions would ruin things.
But now that her true identity had been exposed by Xue's father, her mind was completely in a mess.
No matter how much Xue's mother struggled, time continued to move forward, and in the blink of an eye it was graduation season.
Xue Lingxue is even busier now, as everything is for graduation.
Originally, it would have been difficult for her to graduate based on her previous grades, but her hard work over the past year has helped her catch up, and now all she has left is the final thesis.
Zhang Jingxuan, who had been quiet for a long time, has been frequently appearing in the apartment recently, and even followed Xue Lingxue to the library, disturbing her studies.
Chen Xinyue was so angry that she simply took Xue Lingxue to her own girls' dormitory.
Although there are roommates over there, they don’t come back often this semester so it’s quite quiet. The most important thing is that Zhang Jingxuan can’t come in here.
After Zhang Jingxuan knew that it was Chen Xinyue who ruined his plan again, he stopped Chen Xinyue for the first time when she was alone.
Seeing Chen Xinyue looking at him unkindly, Zhang Jingxuan sneered, raised his chin arrogantly, and didn't waste words with her, "If you know what's good for you, stay away from Xue Lingxue. Meddling in other people's business won't end well!"
"Are you threatening me?" Chen Xinyue narrowed her eyes and sneered, "What if I don't agree?"
Zhang Jingxuan immediately frowned, and he approached Chen Xinyue step by step, with a sinister look on his face, "You can try it, this is the UK, if someone disappears, the embassy won't be able to find it, don't you think?"
Chen Xinyue took a deep look, raised her eyebrows, and smiled, "Not bad, thank you Mr. Zhang for your reminder, I will pay attention to it."
Zhang Jingxuan thought she had given in, so he smiled smugly and turned away.
As soon as he left, Chen Xinyue immediately took out the recorder in her hand. The recorder recorded the quarrel between Zhang Jingxuan and Xue Lingxue, and now also included his threats.
She packed up her things without leaving a trace, went back to her apartment to pack her luggage, checked out of the lease, and moved directly into the school dormitory.
By the way, Xue Lingxue was also arranged to live in the school dormitory.
The teachers at school obviously couldn't understand why they still had to arrange for accommodation when they were about to graduate. Fortunately, Chen Xinyue was smart and played the recording of Zhang Jingxuan threatening her to the teachers, saying that their personal safety was not guaranteed if they lived outside the school.
The teacher thought that they were about to graduate and was also worried that something might happen at this critical moment, so she actually tried to help them move to a dormitory.
After the matter was settled, Xue Lingxue took the initiative to contact Xue's mother.
"Mom, I'm at the critical juncture of graduation now. I need to concentrate on my thesis. It's a waste of time to run between the school and the apartment. I have already applied to live on campus. I will go back after I successfully get my diploma."
Xue's mother was happy to see her daughter being so motivated. Apart from telling Xue Lingxue to take good care of herself, she said nothing else and did not mention Zhang Jingxuan again to cause her trouble.
It was many days later that Zhang Jingxuan found out that Xue Lingxue lived on campus.
He took the initiative to go to the school to look for someone, but the school was under martial law and non-teachers and students were prohibited from entering during this period.
Zhang Jingxuan could no longer hold it in, so he kicked the school gate hard and left cursing. A few days later, he received a call from home asking him to go back and prepare for his wedding.
Zhang Jingxuan was exhausted and very resistant, "Dad, Lingxue hasn't graduated yet, I'll wait for her to return home together."
Zhang's father reprimanded her in dissatisfaction, "Lingxue's graduation is not that soon. You must come back to prepare in advance. Once everything is arranged here, you can go to England to pick her up. That's it."
Zhang's father didn't give Zhang Jingxuan any chance to refuse.
Zhang Jingxuan had no choice but to be furious.
Since he couldn't refuse his family, he could only go back to the villa to see Annie.
"Honey, I need to go back to China for a few months and probably won't be back until October." Zhang Jingxuan hugged Annie's waist apologetically.
Anne kissed him naturally, "It's okay, work is more important, I can understand, with David and Lily by my side, I can do it."
Annie's understanding made Zhang Jingxuan feel even more guilty and blame himself. He felt that he had let his lover down and could not release the pain in his heart. Soon, the two of them went to bed again.
Two days later, Zhang Jingxuan boarded a plane back to China.
He left quietly and Xue Lingxue was not aware of it. If Xue's mother hadn't called and mentioned this matter, she would still be kept in the dark.
When Xue's mother saw that her daughter knew nothing about Zhang Jingxuan's whereabouts, she immediately exploded, "You didn't even tell you such an important thing as his return to China?"
Xue Lingxue looked very innocent. "Mom, you know my situation. I was in school and didn't go anywhere. He deliberately told me that I only needed to come over and he would definitely be able to find me. To put it bluntly, he didn't take me seriously!"
"You still say that! It takes two to tango. Just because he is not behaving properly, you are right? Before, you kept calling him Zhang. Who would feel comfortable after hearing that? Forget it, there is no point in saying these things now.
Your father and I have also inquired about Jingxuan. He has been an excellent student since childhood, sensible and obedient. He joined the Zhang Group at an early age and is now in charge of the overseas branch. He has real power in the Zhang family and is not short of money.
He is very polite in his dealings with our family and is respectful and filial to me and your father. Except that you look down on him, there is nothing wrong with him.
He came back to prepare for the wedding, which shows that he cares about it!
Hey! Your father and I hope that you will have a smooth life in the second half of your life. The Zhang family is rich, and our family is powerful. A marriage between the two families is good for everyone, and you will be able to live comfortably in the future.
Marriage is not about just liking me and me liking you. Love cannot be eaten. Only having money and power can make you live a glamorous and decent life. It doesn't matter even if the relationship between husband and wife is not good. After getting married, hurry up and have children. With children and property in the future, your future will be guaranteed.
Mom knows you may not accept what I said, time will prove that I am right for you, trust me, I only have you as my precious daughter, I will definitely not harm you!"
Xue's mother talked on and on for a long time before hanging up the phone.
Xue Lingxue finished her perfunctory response and turned back to the dormitory with an expressionless face.
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Chen Xinyue couldn't help but worry, "What's wrong?"
Xue Lingxue shook her head and sat down next to Chen Xinyue. "My mother said that Zhang Jingxuan returned to China to prepare for the wedding. He didn't even inform me of such a big thing, as if this marriage had nothing to do with me. Isn't it ridiculous?"
Seeing her self-deprecating expression, Chen Xinyue grabbed her shoulders seriously and asked word by word: "Lingxue, if you have the opportunity to break up with Zhang Jingxuan and gain freedom, the price is to be talked about and pointed at behind your back, are you willing?"
