Chapter 444: Only the Newcomers Smile
Fang Gengsheng and Shen Yunliang did not have much contact, they were just nodding acquaintances.
But he and the middle-aged man are old friends.
Hearing the middle-aged man's question, he smiled and said, "Old Feng, let me introduce you. This is my relative Cheng Jiaxing."
"Today our two families will meet to confirm Yuqing's marriage."
As he spoke, he turned to Cheng Jiaxing and said, "Brother Jiaxing, this is my old comrade Feng Fukuan, who has now been transferred to a local place."
"Xuyuan, go say hello to Uncle Feng."
Feng Fukuan couldn't help but look at Cheng Xuyuan with a scrutinizing look.
He and Fang Gengsheng are old friends. More than ten years ago, their two families lived together.
The sisters Fang Yuqing and Fang Yuning grew up under the care of their elders.
For Feng Fukuan, who has only sons and no daughters, the two sisters are almost like his own daughters.
As for Fang Yuning, since his age was not suitable, he never said anything.
As for Fang Yuqing, he had always been thinking about her for his youngest son.
However, Fang Yuqing is currently attending college, and his youngest son is also serving in the army, so he thinks it would be better to wait a year or two before bringing up this matter.
But I didn't expect to encounter such a scene today.
He was shocked to see that the young man in front of him had gotten engaged to Fang Yuqing first.
At this time, Cheng Xuyuan said politely, "Hello, Uncle Feng."
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's address, Feng Fukuan did not respond, and could not help but ask: "Lao Fang, isn't Yuqing just a sophomore?"
Fang Gengsheng smiled and said, "Yuqing is only a sophomore, but the two kids have been dating for over a year. I think the parents of both sides should meet first, and then they can get married once they graduate."
In a flash, Fang Gengsheng remembered what Feng Fukuan had mentioned before.
If he was somewhat happy about this matter before, it is different now.
Cheng Xuyuan is such a good kid. Not only can he talk to me about everything, but he is also loved by my precious daughter. Isn't he much better than Old Feng's stupid son with a sharp mind and an empty stomach? Feng Fukuan said to the gentle Cheng Xuyuan, "Hello, Xiao Cheng, haha, Old Fang and I are old friends. We will definitely meet more often in the future."
Although he was filled with regret, Feng Fukuan could only settle the regret with Fang Gengsheng.
When dealing with juniors like Cheng Xuyuan, he has to act like an elder.
Otherwise, it would be a bit too much.
Cheng Xuyuan hurriedly said, "If there is anything wrong in the future, please give me more advice, Uncle Feng."
Feng Fukuan nodded and looked at Shen Liangyun again. He hesitated for a moment, but still introduced: "Lao Fang, let me introduce you, this is Shen Yunliang."
"Old Shen is a very good person. He is not only good at writing, but also has a good alcohol tolerance."
"Let's have a good chat later."
Fang Gengsheng had heard of the name Shen Yunliang.
He had always felt that Shen Yunliang looked familiar, but he didn't think about anything else.
But now, after hearing Feng Fukuan's introduction, he immediately thought of who this person was:
Cheng Xuyuan's ex-father-in-law! After his precious daughter started dating Cheng Xuyuan, Fang Gengsheng thoroughly investigated Cheng Xuyuan's situation.
Not only did he know about the circumstances of Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo's marriage, he also knew about the agreement Cheng Xuyuan made with the Shen family when he came to Yanjing.
At that time, he felt that the Shen family was a little bit arrogant, so they lost such a good son-in-law.
Now as Cheng Xuyuan's achievements grow, he feels more and more that Shen Yunliang of the Shen family has poor vision and pattern.
Shen Yunliang was also extremely embarrassed at this time! Cheng Xuyuan was engaged! He actually encountered Cheng Xuyuan's engagement, what kind of thing was this?
But it just so happened that his boss had a good relationship with Cheng Xuyuan, his current father-in-law. This was really...
If Feng Fukuan didn't speak, he would just meet her without knowing her.
After all, meeting someone without knowing each other is a good way to resolve the immediate embarrassment.
But now, Feng Fukuan actually introduced his own.
He knew that Feng Fukuan's willingness to introduce him showed that he thought highly of him.
But now, he really doesn't need this kind of respect! However, at this time, Feng Fukuan has introduced himself, so he can't keep silent.
"Yunliang, this is my old comrade Fang Gengsheng. He is still wearing his military uniform. You can just call him Lao Fang." Feng Fukuan didn't know what Fang Gengsheng was thinking at the moment, and introduced him with a smile.
When Shen Yunliang looked at Fang Gengsheng, he felt that there seemed to be a hint of smile in Fang Gengsheng's eyes.
This was not a friendly and pleasant smile that one would see when acquaintances met, but rather a faint smile that seemed to imply some deep meaning.
Could it be that he knows about our family and Cheng Xuyuan?
This is not a particularly difficult thing. For someone like Fang Gengsheng, how could he not know what his son-in-law is like when he wants to marry his daughter off? Thoughts flashed through his mind, but Shen Liangyun finally suppressed all his thoughts.
He forced a smile on his face and said, "Hello, Lao Fang. Nice to meet you."
Fang Gengsheng shook Shen Yunliang's hand vigorously, and said with emotion in his voice: "Old Shen, I really didn't expect that we would meet in this situation."
Hearing Fang Gengsheng's words, Feng Fukuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know each other?"
Feng Fukuan’s words shocked Shen Yunliang.
This was not something remarkable, and for a moment, he felt a little nervous.
Fortunately, Fang Gengsheng glanced at Cheng Xuyuan at this time, then smiled and said, "I have heard of Old Shen's name."
"Haha, I've only heard of your name."
Feng Fukuan didn't have any doubts. After all, the relationship between these two people was quite complicated.
Even if he racked his brains, he would never have thought that Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yunliang had such a relationship.
So he didn't ask any more questions.
But when Cheng Xuyuan looked at Fang Gengsheng, for some reason, he felt a chill in his heart.
He was not surprised that Fang Gengsheng knew Shen Yunliang. After all, with Fang Gengsheng's current identity, he would not be indifferent to his and Shen Yumo's affairs.
It’s not impossible to find out what the situation is with Shen Yumo’s family.
And I have nothing to hide in this regard.
So I have a clear conscience about this matter, why do I still feel guilty and afraid? Just when all kinds of thoughts were flashing through Cheng Xuyuan's mind, he heard Fang Gengsheng say, "Old Feng, my in-laws and I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you."
"We'll talk about it later."
Cheng Jiaxing was relatively calm at this time. Although he knew that Shen Yumo's father seemed to be called Shen Yunliang, he didn't think about that at all.
After all, this possibility is really too small.
Although Feng Fukuan really wanted to talk to Fang Gengsheng, the current situation was not the time for them to chat for long.
So he could only say, "Lao Fang, let's talk about this later."
Just when he was about to leave, Meng Fanjin and Wang Guilan came out with smiles on their faces, accompanied by Fang Yuning and Fang Yuqing.
Seeing Feng Fukuan, Meng Fanjin greeted him with a smile.
Feng Fukuan was very respectful to his sister-in-law Meng Fanjin. He greeted her politely, then nodded and said a few words to Fang Yuqing and Fang Yuning before leaving.
Watching Feng Fukuan and Shen Yunliang leave, Cheng Xuyuan felt relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.
My luck today is really problematic. I can encounter such things.
Yanjing is so big, how could it be such a coincidence? Fortunately, everyone is civilized and is relatively restrained in such matters.
Therefore, no one made any inappropriate overreaction, otherwise, this engagement would have been embarrassing for everyone.
Just as Cheng Xuyuan sighed in his heart and left quickly, Feng Fukuan and Shen Yunliang also left with their own thoughts.
Especially Shen Yunliang, his mind was full of thoughts about the situation just now, and the laughter that came from time to time showed that the person who laughed was very happy now.
I only hear the newlyweds laughing!
For some reason, this thought arose in Shen Yunliang's mind.
Cheng Xuyuan should be very happy and proud now.
But what about my daughter?
My daughter has called less frequently recently, although letters still arrive on time. But according to her, she is not planning to come back for the New Year this year.
During the Chinese New Year, when families are reuniting, Yu Mo is all alone in the East China Sea. This...
Just when Shen Yunliang was thinking about it, he heard Feng Fukuan said, "Old Feng, tell me, under what circumstances would Old Fang be so anxious to get his daughter engaged?"
These words immediately made Shen Yunliang's heart tremble.
A man like Fang Gengsheng is so eager to get engaged, could it be Fang Yuqing...
Just as Shen Yunliang was daydreaming, Feng Fukuan continued, "Old Shen, I noticed that you looked at Cheng...Cheng Xuyuan in a strange way just now. Do you know him?"
Shen Yunliang was stunned for a moment, his mind working rapidly.
If he said he didn't know each other, and it was exposed later, he and Feng Fukuan would never be able to meet again.
And this kind of thing can't be hidden from people.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Cheng Xuyuan is a young talent in the literary world. His pen name is Xu Lingyun, and he has published a lot of works recently."
"Besides, he has won awards abroad."
“It’s a literary award in the United States.”
Feng Fukuan slapped his head and said, "I was wondering why the name Cheng Xuyuan sounded familiar to me. So he is Xu Lingyun, the Xu Lingyun who wrote "Soldier Assault"?"
"Yes, that's Xu Lingyun!"
Feng Fukuan took two steps and then said with a hint of emotion: "No wonder Old Fang was in such a hurry to get Yuqing engaged. It turns out he was afraid that his good son-in-law would run away."
"I don't know what kind of person Xu Lingyun is, but he writes really well!"
As he spoke, he said with a hint of emotion on his face: "I met with some old comrades a few days ago, and they said that Xu Lingyun's novel played a very important role in boosting people's spirits."
"Hey, my kid is so engrossed in reading this book. How can he compete with others in his situation?"
Shen Yunliang opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.
He really didn't want to talk about Cheng Xuyuan at this moment. After all, this was not a happy thing for him.
