His gaze swept over Zhang Youye, then lingered on Chen Ruoyang for a long time.
Finally, looking at Shu Yi standing beside her brother, Shu De'an gently patted his knee and asked with a smile.
"Big brother, Yiyi has been back for almost half a month now. I'm back from my business trip, haven't you asked Renxuan to take her to the company yet?"
After hearing this, he turned and gestured for Shu Yi to sit in the empty seat next to Zhang Youye, and Shu Qiyi picked up his teacup.
"No rush. Yiyi just got back. Renxuan is handling things at the company, and Ranran is learning right now."
He was, after all, someone who worked in officialdom.
Wearing a well-fitting business jacket, Shu De'an actually exuded a stronger aura than Shu Qiyi.
Perhaps out of consideration for their brotherly relationship, he did not show any impatience with his grandfather's tone.
“But it’s not good to keep Yi Yi at home like this forever,” Shu De’an retorted.
"Wouldn't it be better if my granddaughter spent more time with me? You're all so busy, it's rare for someone to be able to keep me company. Besides, I haven't asked Yiyi if she wants to go to the company yet, I'll discuss it with her later."
"Brother, you always procrastinate, but some things can't be put off."
After speaking, he took a sip of tea. Seeing that he couldn't persuade Shu Qiyi, Shu De'an had no choice but to look at Shu Yi.
"Yiyi, your uncle is very happy to see you at the Shu family. I don't know if your grandfather has told you this clearly, but in a family like ours, you can understand without me saying it."
"After all, you are a girl and will get married in the future. You can't help with the company's affairs, so today your uncle took the liberty of bringing a boy over to introduce you."
As he spoke, Shu De'an patted the man beside him on the shoulder: "This kid's name is Chen Ruoyang, and he's also single."
"He's a rising star at your uncle's workplace now. You're both young and around the same age. Why don't you two become friends and get to know each other better in the future?"
Before Shu Yi could even open her mouth in surprise, her grandfather's voice, neither too loud nor too soft, rang in her ears.
Why didn't you discuss this with me?
"Brother, what's there to discuss? It's just about making friends with young people."
As if finally remembering that there was a young master sitting opposite him, Shu De'an put down his teacup and looked at Zhang Youye.
"That kid, Yu Ye, is always so irresponsible. He seems like a spoiled brat. Brother, Yi Yi will get married eventually, it doesn't matter who she marries..."
Noticing Zhang Youye's face darkening, and worried that Shu De'an's words might be too arbitrary and affect the stability of the situation, Shu Qiyi quickly interrupted.
"Yiyi, take Youye out for a walk first. There's nothing for you two to do here. Let's have a chat alone."
Shu Yi's gaze, which had been rather flat, lingered on Chen Ruoyang for a brief moment before she stood up from her chair.
He had only taken one step when another voice came from beside his ear.
“That’s perfect, Ruoyang. Why don’t you go out with them for a stroll? The scenery here is quite nice; Yiyi can show you around.”
Three people shopping together?
What kind of bizarre chaotic scene is this?
Shu Qiyi secretly gave Zhang Youye a speechless look, and before they had taken more than a few steps behind the two, their steps were interrupted by Shu Qiyi.
"Ruoyang, don't go with him. Come back and keep Grandpa company. It's been so long since I've seen you. Let me take a good look at you."
Meeting Shu Qiyi's gaze, Chen Ruoyang, who was at the mercy of the two old men, had no choice but to return to his original seat.
Speechless at the sight of Shu Qiyi, and seeing that the two people in front of him were about to step out of the threshold, Shu De'an let out a cold snort.
"Are you really that dissatisfied with the person I found?"
Bang--
He slammed the teacup heavily onto the table.
Having received no response from Shu Qiyi, the two people in front who had heard the commotion turned around.
For the sake of the family's future, and considering all aspects of the future, Shudean had no choice but to reveal the purpose of his trip.
“Brother, given the current state of our Shu family, if we don’t do something soon, we’ll be ruined by those who have their eyes on us. I understand that you don’t want to talk to Yiyi about these things right now because you’re afraid she’ll be offended.”
“But if you keep dragging this out, we’ll be in a very passive position. You haven’t been out and about for years, so you have no idea what’s been happening outside.”
What's happening outside?
After saying that, a soft hum escaped from his throat. Shu Qiyi slowly turned his head and glanced at his younger brother expressionlessly.
"Do you really think your brother is a useless old man? Let's put aside what happened at the company for now. What exactly do you want by bringing Ruoyang here on your own initiative today?"
"Are you just like them, not taking me, the head of the family, seriously?"
Stimulated by his elder brother's words, Shu De'an's eyes widened, and he frowned as he pushed up his business glasses.
"What do you mean 'what I want to do'? Yiyi is back now, but she does nothing all day, and you won't let her go to the company to take over her work. Are the children of the Shu family here to enjoy a life of luxury?"
"Which family of our status doesn't need marriage alliances, which family doesn't need to cultivate the ability to control the company? Is enjoying a life of luxury so easy?"
Having spent many years in officialdom, his words were flawless, but he completely missed the point.
I don't understand whether my uncle was indirectly criticizing my grandfather or trying to make Shuyi understand through this opportunity.
The identity of the second young lady of the Shu family is not as simple as just eating, drinking, and having fun every day.
At this moment, Shu Yi could only tell from his words that her uncle seemed to be trying to play matchmaker.
Before her grandfather could speak up to defend her, she was provoked by her uncle's inexplicable matchmaking, so she quickly went to Shu De'an and calmly met his gaze.
“Uncle, I understand what you’re saying. I understand that good fortune isn’t always easy to enjoy, and I understand that intermarriage between families is necessary. However, even if it’s an arranged marriage, I think I should have the right to choose for myself, right?”
