The private room was completely silent.
Tao Yuxuan snorted, "Juncheng, since you have someone you like, why didn't you say so sooner or later? Why did you keep us hanging for so long? Are you playing with us?"
Mr. Tao pursed his lips, his eyes filled with anger.
This marriage was originally a step up for the Tao family.
But Mingming's family had that intention and provided a ladder, so he eagerly climbed it.
He'd climbed all the way to the top, and then they pulled the ladder away.
Mr. Tao was not known for his good temper. He suppressed his anger and asked, "Aunt Jun, your grandson's sweetheart is still alive, and you're already arranging blind dates for him?"
Neither the father nor the daughter has a good temper.
Tao's father spoke "noble grandson" so quickly that it sounded like "turtle grandson."
If I didn't need something from him, I probably would have already started cursing.
As Grandma Jun was sizing up Ning Yu, she heard the Tao family's words and said indifferently, "The child has his own ideas, and I, as an elder, can't control him."
They're just going to renege on their promise.
Madam Jun, having detached herself from her son's delight at finding a woman, said, "Mr. Tao, arranged marriages are a matter of mutual consent. Since the children are unwilling, let them be friends."
Tao Yuxuan said sarcastically, "I don't lack friends. Judging from Young Master Jun's appearance, he probably doesn't lack boyfriends or girlfriends either, right?"
He always starts by criticizing.
Shi's father coughed and continued to smooth things over, "Even if we can't become in-laws, there's no need for us to become enemies."
"Aunt Jun, regarding the Tao family's matter, could you please put in a good word for us? It would be beneficial for both of us."
Grandma Jun raised her eyelids slightly and said calmly, "I'll think about it."
Tao Yuxuan rolled her eyes. "If you can't do it, you can't do it. Why are you still thinking about it? What are you pretending to be, this great philanthropist?"
"Our machines lose hundreds of thousands of yuan every day they're down. We can't afford to waste time with you! Dad, let's go!"
That's what Tao's father was thinking too.
If the Jun family were willing to help, they would have lent a hand long ago.
They've dragged this out until now, and the Tao family is about to go bankrupt and be liquidated. What's the point of helping them now?
This is practically pushing them down!
Seeing that the man was about to leave, Shi's father stood up and stopped Tao's father, saying, "Let's talk this over. Don't go."
The Jun family members, who were always arrogant and listened to flattery, couldn't help but feel embarrassed when they heard the Tao family father's sarcastic remarks.
“I didn’t expect Miss Tao to be so fiery. Her usual gentle and dignified demeanor towards us is just an act, isn’t it?” Madam Jun was no longer afraid to tear off the mask of civility and said, “It’s a good thing she didn’t join our Jun family.”
When it comes to sharp tongues, Tao Yuxuan has never lost. "No matter how fierce I am, didn't you still beg me to be your daughter-in-law before? Do you really think anyone wants to marry into your Jun family?"
"You!" Madam Jun was speechless, looking at Tao Yuxuan, too angry to speak.
Grandma Jun said calmly, "Since the Tao family doesn't need this old woman's help, I'm happy to keep quiet."
Madam Jun chuckled and said to Tao Yuxuan, "Miss Tao, my driver just got divorced. If your family goes bankrupt and you can't get married, I can help you find someone."
Although my driver is almost fifty, he's older and knows how to take care of people.
Tao Yuxuan continued to poke at Madam Jun's sore spot, "Let him dote on your son more!"
Jun Cheng: ...
Madam Jun snorted, "Wait until your Tao family goes bankrupt, then let's see if you're still so arrogant!"
Shi's father sighed.
What happened to this perfectly good meal?
Tao's father was about to leave with Tao Yuxuan.
Madam Jun then looked at Ning Yu and asked, "Ning Yu, how did you and my Cheng'er meet?"
