Chapter 1643 - Eating in the Mansion
Duan Shu Xian carried her bag as she walked out of the parking lot. As she passed by some of the female students, she would occasionally hear voices regarding the young professor, as if he had become a celebrity in the school.
Duan Shu Xian walked to her father's car. Before her father arrived, she was already squatting under the flowers and reading the news.
Not long after, Duan Deming walked over from afar and saw the girl squatting under the flowers. A hint of happiness was revealed in his eyes, it was his fatherly love for his daughter.
"Shu Xian, get on the car!"
"Dad." Duan Shu Xian immediately stood up, opened the copilot's door and sat inside. She asked, "Mom, are you going back?"
"Your mom is waiting at the store. We'll go get her.""En!" Duan Shu Xian loved to be with her parents the most. No matter what they did, they would always be together.
Since she was the only child, Duan Deming and his wife gave their all to her.
Duan Deming's car drove in the direction of his wife's florist. Duan Shu Xian looked out of the window at the scenery and suddenly thought of the new professor, she thought for a bit, but couldn't help but ask her father, "Dad, today there seems to be a new young professor at school. The whole school is talking about him! Do you know who he is? "
Of course Duan Deming knew about this new professor, it was just that, seeing that his daughter had also asked around, he couldn't help but be a little startled. You're interested in him too? "
"Dad, what are you thinking about? It's not that I'm interested in him, but he saved me today. Without him, I would have already fallen into the hospital."Duan Deming could not help but turn his head and look at her, "What happened? What happened? "
"When I was sorting out the bookshelves this morning, I accidentally missed the ladder. Luckily, this young professor was there and caught me. However, he did scratch my wrist, so I'm sorry." Duan Shu Xian could only answer honestly.Duan Deming was surprised, "Then are you alright!"
"I'm fine."
"Be careful next time and have someone to help you from the side. You don't have to take everything for yourself." Duan Deming knew that his daughter was warm-hearted, and sometimes he regretted it a little. He had taught his daughter to be magnanimous since he was young, and now that he had just joined the job, he was sure to suffer losses.
"Dad, I'm really fine, don't worry!" Duan Shu Xian pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't forget to ask again, "Dad, who is that new professor!? It's amazing that he became a professor at such a young age. "
"He doesn't have any background. He probably just came back from abroad to teach." Duan Deming was not surprised.
"Oh!" Duan Shu Xian blinked.
Just then, they arrived at the entrance of florist. A woman wearing a plain dress carried two flowers, sat in the back seat and smiled, "I asked my elder sister-in-law just now, she asked me to bring two flowers."
"Elder sister-in-law loves lilies the most. I especially chose a few fresh ones."
"Xiao Yu, thank you." Duan Deming praised his wife.
"It's rare for me to go over for a meal, so of course I can't go over empty-handed." Li Yu laughed.
"Uncle and the others should be home!" Duan Shu Xian asked."Of course they're all here, what's the matter?"
"Nothing! "It's just that I haven't seen my cousin and her for quite some time." Duan Shu Xian smiled.
Duan Deming and his wife, who was sitting in the backseat, looked at each other, feeling a little guilty. They were both worried that if their daughter went to the big house, they wouldn't feel inferior.
She was similarly a descendant of the Duan Clan, but the difference in all aspects between her and her pair of dazzling cousins wasn't just a little bit.
As parents, they were unable to create a better family background for her, so they hoped that their daughter wouldn't become a person who fought for fame and profit. This way, her life would be very tiring and arduous.
Even if they couldn't stand out amongst the younger generation in the family, their thoughts were to nurture her to have a normal person's heart, to live a peaceful and stable life.
However, every time they returned to the mansion, they would worry about whether their daughter's status in the Duan Clan would cause her to feel inferior or not.Duan Mansion.
They had an extremely imposing courtyard in the direction of the center of the city. Even though buildings were everywhere, no one dared to touch the Feng Shui location, which held the location of the Duan Clan's ancestors. Old Man Duan didn't like the higher ups so he built a large Chinese villa for himself and his eldest son to live in.
As the car drove into the courtyard, Duan Shu Xian pulled open the back seat and took a bunch of flowers for her mother. The family of three walked towards the brightly lit hall.
Walking in the Duan Clan courtyard and feeling the grandeur and grandeur that assaulted his face, the beautiful gardens and pavilion pavilions that surrounded him were not only wealthy, but also needed the aura of a clan that had formed.
Every time she came to the mansion, she would feel quite a bit of pressure. Even her grandfather would like her, and her uncle and aunt would treat her warmly. However, among the younger generation, she was truly unremarkable.
Even among the other branch members of the Duan Clan, there were many people of the same generation who possessed extraordinary accomplishments."Big brother, sister-in-law." Duan Deming and his wife walked in and called out to the couple on the sofa.
"Yo!" Deming and Xiao Yu are here. A well-dressed lady stood up and came over to receive the flowers in Li Yu's hands. When she saw Duan Shu Xian behind her, she immediately laughed, "Shu Xian is here, everyone come in!"
"Uncle, aunty, long time no see."
"Yes!" I haven't seen you all for a while, so I wanted to invite you all over for a meal. Madam Duan, Song Meilan said with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, Shu Xian, please take a seat. Deming, come. You two go teach them a thing or two." Duan Deliang stood up and said to his brother, they usually play chess to pass the time.
"Great!" Big Brother, I won't lose to you this time. " Duan Deming replied with a smile, then went in the direction of the study room.
"Big Bro and Big Sis still not back yet?" Duan Shu Xian curiously asked.
"They're all on the way back." Song Meilan said as he invited them to drink their tea.
Old Man Duan enjoyed watching dramas and listening to songs upstairs, so Duan Shu Xian didn't disturb him.
Not long later, a tall and slender figure walked in. It was Duan Shumin, who had just returned, with her long hair tied behind her head, she was wearing a high class, custom-made suit, and she was holding a limited edition name tag bag in her hands, exuding the aura of a successful woman.
"Sister Min." Duan Shu Xian greeted.
Duan Shumin nodded at her and smiled, "Xiao Xian came too."
"Min Min, go and change your clothes." Song Meilan said to his daughter. Although the uniform was very handsome, but to be with her family, it still seemed to be too formal. Hm! I'll go back to my room and take care of my work. After she finished speaking, Duan Min carried her bag up the stairs.She only felt jealousy from the bottom of her heart. Her cousin was a top student when she was in school, and after working for a few years, she had continuously risen to the top position in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This year, I heard that she had risen to the top seat, and she was only twenty-six years old.
Very quickly, a handsome and tall figure walked in steadily. It was the young master of the Duan Clan, Duan Siye.
"Big brother." Duan Shu Xian hastily called out to him.
"Xiao Xian." Duan Siye smiled at her. He was thirty years old and his entire body was emitting the charm of a mature man.
"Big brother, have you been busy lately?"
"It's alright. I heard Uncle say that you work at his school. How is it?"
"Not bad, it's only been a short while." Duan Shu Xian smiled.
"If you need any help, just look for me. If you want a new job, you can also look for me." Duan Siye said gently. He really wanted to help his uncle and his family.
"Thank you, Big Brother. I'll come look for you if I need anything." Duan Shu Xian expressed her gratitude.
The dinner was very sumptuous, and the dishes on the table were almost all delicacies that were rarely seen. The ingredients used were all very expensive.
When Old Man Duan came down, he was in his early seventies and was still very tough. His family sat at the table amiably and ate dinner.
At the dining table, the old man asked Duan Shu Xian about her work. He heard that she planned to take the Imperial Examinations next year, so she could work in the library and take more time to read and prepare for the Imperial Examinations.
