A few days after having dinner with Qin Heque, Cheng Yuesheng received a message from Mr. Qin inviting her to visit him on the weekend.
She agreed, but was a little worried about what gift to bring.
That afternoon, she didn't go to the milk tea shop to help Lin Xiaoke make new milk tea. Ever since she and Lin Xiaoke discussed their theories on the integration of coffee into milk tea and milk tea into porridge, Lin Xiaoke seemed to have opened the door to a new century and had more ideas than she did. Furthermore, the milk tea shop had always been run by Lin Xiaoke, who had also worked part-time at other milk tea shops. When it came to making milk tea and preparing toppings, Lin Xiaoke was far more professional than she was.
So Cheng Yuesheng can now be a hands-off boss, leaving things to Lin Xiaoke, and stay alone in the apartment to search the Internet for gift ideas that the elderly will like.
She searched for the world's most popular question-and-answer platform and looked at the list of shopping websites, but still had no idea.
Considering the scale of Qin Heque's company, Mr. Qin should have no shortage of material things.
"Knock knock knock--" A knock on the door interrupted Cheng Yuesheng's thoughts.
She leaned over to look through the peephole and saw that it was Cheng's father.
She suddenly didn't want to open the door, so she just left him outside.
But the person outside the door seemed to know what she was thinking, "Yue Sheng, open the door."
He knocked on the door a few more times. "The property manager downstairs said you didn't go out today. Open the door."
This property is so unreliable that it even leaked the owner's information. Cheng Yuesheng decided to complain after Cheng's father left. Now she could only open the door for him helplessly.
"Why are you here? Is there something wrong?" She had a blank expression on her face, and her deer eyes were as big as dead fish eyes.
"You didn't even call out when your dad came over. You're really getting more and more wild out there alone." Father Cheng frowned, dissatisfied with Cheng Yuesheng's attitude towards him.
"Oh, have you eaten? Hello." She said perfunctorily and walked to the sofa and sat down first. "So, what brings you here? Let me make it clear in advance that if you are trying to persuade me to move back home, then stop. I will not agree."
Father Cheng couldn't understand when his daughter's personality changed like this. She used to be weak and submissive.
"Yuesheng, you are about to graduate from college. Wouldn't it be better for you to move back home now? You can just go back to school for your thesis defense. There are chefs and servants at home. You don't have to cook for yourself when you are at home, and there will be someone to take care of you if you are sick." Cheng's father advised.
"I don't have to cook for myself when I live alone. I can just order takeout when I'm hungry. I can hire a nurse to take care of me if I'm sick and hospitalized. Besides, I have a boyfriend. Can't he take care of me?" Cheng Yuesheng crossed her arms and looked at her father indifferently.
His brows furrowed as he said disapprovingly, "Yuesheng, eating takeout frequently isn't nutritious, and how can a caregiver compare to someone at home? Besides, your boyfriend isn't recognized by our family. You don't know Qin Heque. He's definitely not with you because he likes you. He has no good intentions. Don't let him trick you. Then it won't just be a relationship issue..."
"Why should my family approve of my boyfriend?" Cheng Yuesheng looked at him as if he had seen an antique from nowhere. "Also, there's no need to slander Qin Heque in front of me. He's a very good person, not the kind of person you say he is."
Cheng's father wanted to use her as a tool for marriage, so how could he have the nerve to speak ill of Qin Heque in front of her.
"Yuesheng, you are still young and haven't even graduated from school. You don't know how many people in the business world have been cheated by him. Some have gone bankrupt and can't even get back on their feet." Father Cheng looked as if he was telling you this for your own good.
"Isn't it normal to do business using commercial means? Every day so many companies suffer losses and go bankrupt, and so many companies rise. Are you doing business as charity, giving all the money to your competitors?" Cheng Yuesheng didn't care about these things at all.
"Yuesheng, you are young and too naive. Don't be fooled by Qin Heque's gentle appearance. Do you know how many daughters of CEOs have chased him and suffered emotional pain for him? If you are like this, he will eat you up without leaving anything behind." Cheng's father said earnestly.
"You mean to say that Qin Heque is a gentleman who plays with girls' feelings?" Cheng Yuesheng looked puzzled.
Father Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, he is that kind of person."
"Okay, I understand. I will ask him to verify what you said." Cheng Yuesheng felt calm.
If I ask Qin Heque for confirmation, what’s the point of what he said today!
"Yuesheng, why do you have to go against your family? Look, which rich daughter hasn't already made an engagement? Arranged marriages are common in families like ours."
"You think Qin Heque isn't as good as the blind date you introduced me to?" Cheng Yuesheng raised the corner of his mouth in a mocking arc. "He's young and handsome, successful in his career, filial to his elders, and gentle and polite to others. What's not good about him?"
He admitted that Qin Heque was young, handsome, successful in his career, and filial to his elders. Although Qin Heque was only filial to Old Man Qin, how could Cheng Yuesheng know that Qin Heque was gentle and polite to others!
Father Cheng really thinks his daughter has bad eyesight. Has she become love-brained now?
"I know that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. You've just started dating him, so you must think he's perfect in every way. But time reveals a person's true character. Your parents have experienced more than you have, and they have more experience judging people than you do. Sooner or later, he will reveal his true colors to you, and your parents don't want to see you regret it when the time comes."
Cheng Yuesheng looked at his father, who looked like a loving father, with a sarcastic look on his face. "You are doing this for my own good by letting me marry a man old enough to be my father. You are really doing this for my own good."
Seeing her stubborn defiance, Father Cheng's suppressed anger surged up in his heart. He threatened, "Yuesheng, I'm asking you to go home for your own good. You may not listen to me now, but you will listen to me sooner or later."
After he said this, he left Cheng Yuesheng's apartment.
Cheng Yuesheng heard the threat in his tone and felt a bad premonition spreading in his heart.
She thought for a moment and decided to find a house to move out immediately.
The Cheng family knew where she lived now. If she continued to live here, even if she didn't go back to the Cheng family, they could come directly to find her. Cheng Yuesheng was really tired of being disturbed from time to time by the Cheng family. Moreover, it would be troublesome if one day Cheng's father stopped pretending to be a kind father and directly tied her up and took her back!
This matter should be dealt with as soon as possible, so Cheng Yuesheng went directly to a nearby rental agency. She filled the next few days with house viewings.
However, after looking for two days, she didn't find any house that she was particularly satisfied with. She didn't know if it was because she was too used to the original owner's house and it was difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
But now she has a knife hanging over her head and can't spend money lavishly, so her choices naturally become smaller.
Before Cheng Yuesheng found a suitable house to move to, the day he had agreed to meet with Old Master Qin arrived.
