Novel Full Chapter 1702
Chapter 1702 - Confession to the Duan Residence
Duan Shu Xian's face immediately turned red, even redder than the distant rays of light. Her breathing was filled with his clear and cold manly aura.The fabric on his body felt so comfortable that even if she hit his face, it wouldn't hurt.
"Did you get a sprained foot?" Xi Jingchen asked with concern.
"Nope." Duan Shu Xian shook her head."It's getting dark, let's go eat dinner!" After Xi Jingchen finished speaking, he led her back.
Duan Shu Xian followed behind him, feeling his overbearing and gentle side. Her heart was filled with sweetness.
Some things, only experienced loss, will understand and cherish! She thought, she would never foolishly let go of his hand again. As long as he could hold her hand, she would be led away for the rest of her life.
Dinner was very rich, and the ingredients used here were all the best. The exquisite and delicious dinner made Duan Shu Xian full, and time passed by without her even realizing it.Xi Jingchen drove her back to the entrance of the residential complex, where he ordered his bodyguards to escort her upstairs.
When Duan Shu Xian returned home, Duan Deming and Li Yu were already in the hall. Duan Shu Xian felt her parents were sizing her up, so her face felt slightly hot."How about dinner? "Is it delicious?" Li Yu laughed and asked, helping his daughter resolve her predicament.
"Hm!" "Very good.""I bought you some fruits, take them to your room and eat them!" Li Yu said again.
When Duan Deming was about to enter her room, he said, "At the family banquet tomorrow night, your mother and I will discuss this and tell your grandfather and uncles about you two."
Duan Shu Xian's body stiffened for a few seconds. She still felt rather pressured by this."Don't worry!" Your father and I will talk. " Li Yu comforted her.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Duan Shu Xian turned around with a grateful smile.
Duan Deming was happy to see his daughter, he sighed, and started to think about whether he was really wrong before.
The next morning, Duan Shu Xian went to work. Her face was brimming with the feeling of being in love, and she was also full of energy from her work.
When Duan Shu Xian arrived in the afternoon, she started to worry about her dinner at the Duan Residence.However, she still had to face what she had to face. There was no way to avoid this.
She told her father that she had gone to the Duan residence after work.
Since Duan Shu Xian's time to get off work was already 5: 30 PM, she didn't want to miss the Duan Clan's dinner.
Duan Deming and his wife came over first, and Li Yu gave a bunch of fresh flowers to Song Meilan.
Song Meilan had always provided the vase and the flowers in her house for free, but as time passed, Song Meilan had gotten used to receiving her flowers.
Tonight, Song Meilan continued to praise Li Yu for choosing such a beautiful flower. She could finally place fresh flowers into the emptied vase.
"Sis, how is Min Min recently?" Li Yu asked.
"She's pretty busy, recently! Always away from work, to participate in foreign exchange events, in short! She just can't rest. " Song Meilan had a kind of inexplicable sense of superiority whenever he talked about his daughter.
Furthermore, she also knew that Li Yu had no choice but to be envious of her, because her daughter was inferior to his daughter.
"That's right!" "Min Min is great!" Li Yu nodded."How's Shu Xian at the museum recently?"
"She was quite busy with her work. She received a foreign mission two days ago and was very busy as well."
"What?" Shu Xian was so capable! Just like that, he could receive foreign missions? She shouldn't be the main commentator, right? " Song Meilan immediately asked, she knew in her heart that Duan Shu Xian didn't have that kind of ability.
Li Yu laughed, "She just entered and isn't proficient enough in all aspects of business, she is obviously not the main instructor, she is just there to greet you."
This was also within Song Meilan's expectations. He smiled and said something encouraging, "It's okay, there's always a chance, Shu Xian is still young!"
"I actually hope that she can find someone to marry to." Li Yu laughed.
With regards to this point, Duan Shumin had grown even older. Song Meilan couldn't help but think of her daughter's marriage. After the last time at Pavilion Lord Manor, there had been no following.
But she believed her daughter still had a chance."Right, Shu Xian isn't as busy as Shu Min, finding a good husband is also not bad!" My Mimin's job is so important that she doesn't even have the time to talk about love! "Sigh!" Between Song Meilan's words, there was always a mention of Duan Shumin's excellence.
Even if she wasn't married now, she was working too well.
Li Yu laughed, and did not say a word, all this while, she had always been a person that did not fight over and over again. But this time, she knew her daughter would give her face, so she didn't want to bring it up."Min Min will be back for dinner soon!"
"Yes, she hasn't been back for a long time, isn't this the end of a meeting? She even went on the news last night! "
Li Yu smiled and helped her arrange the flowers.
Duan Shu Xian's car drove into the Duan Residence. Just as she was about to turn the corner, another white luxury car squeezed her even faster. It was Duan Shumin's car, and she recognized Duan Shu Xian's car.He intentionally stole her path when he came in earlier.
Duan Shu Xian almost hit the back of her car just now, luckily she reacted quickly, looking at the car that was arrogantly driving away, she heaved a sigh of relief. Duan Shumin was already in many places, trying to fight against her on purpose.
Just as Duan Shu Xian's car stopped, she saw Duan Shumin also getting off from the driver's seat. She held her briefcase, and when she walked past him, she said without a hint of sincerity, "I'm sorry for what I did just now! I didn't see it was your car. "Duan Shu Xian knew that she did it on purpose, so she said magnanimously, "It's fine."
Duan Shumin turned her head and looked at her, she saw that Duan Shu Xian was also wearing a set of skirt and a dark blue suit, which made her look much more mature, to the point that she looked like she was wearing a uniform.
This caused Duan Shumin to always have a sense of superiority towards her own body, but looking at the even younger Duan Shu Xian, she no longer had the sweetness of Young girls.
Being sized up by her, Duan Shu Xian walked towards the direction of the hall first. Duan Shumin couldn't help but take a step back, as if he was competing with her.
She was still faster than Duan Shu Xian as she walked into the hall and greeted her grandfather who was on the sofa.
"Grandfather, I'm back."
Old Man Duan looked at her granddaughter with a pained expression, "Are you tired from this trip? Put down your bag and get some rest!""Not too bad, not too tiring. I only went to a few countries for business missions." After Duan Shumin finished speaking, she sat down beside his grandfather, "Grandfather, do you want me to tell you about my business trip?"
"Great!" Grandfather really wants to know! "
Just then, Duan Shu Xian walked in and called out to the Old Man Duan, "Grandfather."
"Shu Xian, you came too!" Come, sit down and listen to your Sister Min talk about interesting things. "
The Old Man Duan greeted her.
He didn't know that his two granddaughters were no longer as intimate as they were before."I'll see if my mom can help." Duan Shu Xian smiled and then walked towards the side chamber.
Duan Shumin gazed straight at her, and she curled her lips. In the Duan Clan's number one position, there was no way that Duan Shu Xian could snatch her away.
Duan Shu Xian walked into the side hall and met Song Meilan. She shouted, "Aunt."
"Yo!" "Shu Xian is here." Song Meilan replied with a smile. When she heard her daughter's voice, she had immediately rushed out to see her daughter.
Duan Shu Xian walked over to her mother's side. Li Yu was still pruning the flowers and twigs.
Duan Shu Xian sat down and helped her arrange the flowers. Li Yu looked at her with a pained look in her eyes, "Is grandfather chatting with Min Min Min again?"
"Hmm, I think grandpa would like to hear the story of how she went on a business trip." Duan Shu Xian nodded.Li Yu comforted her, "It's fine, you don't need to take it to heart either."
"Mom, she should really thank you for sending Auntie so many flowers every day!" Duan Shu Xian also felt wronged for her mother, because she could see that even though her mother had sent her flowers for so many years, her mother had not treated her equally."There will be a lot of flowers left in the restaurant every night, so it's not a big deal!" Li Yu laughed.
Duan Shu Xian sighed but didn't say anything. She knew that her mother wasn't willing to care about this matter.
"When I tell your father about you in a while, you have to be calm. Even if Min Shou is against you, you have to be calm."
"I know, I'm ready." Duan Shu Xian nodded.
At dinner time, the eldest brother of the Duan Clan, Duan Siye, did not return. On the dining table, the atmosphere was as usual as Song Meilan introduced the dishes on the table and the ingredients added.This was also her favorite thing to do. She also had a son that gave her quite a bit of pocket money every month, so her spending money was always based on her personality. Duan Shumin, on the other hand, continued to talk about work with her grandfather. She had met with many people from different countries, which was something Duan Shumin rarely did in the past.
His place in this family.
In the past, Duan Shu Xian was not worthy of her showing off. But now, she could only show off her work before proving that she was more outstanding.
"Deming, why is your family so quiet? "Let's talk about your recent situation!" Duan Deliang asked his brother.
Since Duan Deliang was of a high position, naturally, he would act in a very magnanimous manner. Furthermore, he was blood related to Duan Deliang, so no matter what, he would not look down on his younger brother's family.
Duan Deming and his wife looked at each other, the two of them then looked at Duan Shu Xian who was quietly eating at the side, and decided to bring up this matter.
This matter still had to be mentioned by Duan Deming. He calmly said, "Father, Big Brother, Big Sis, there is something that I need to tell you."Song Meilan was listening to her daughter talk about the outside world, and couldn't help but to turn her head over, "Oh! What is it! So mysterious. "
Old Man Duan also raised his head. Seeing his son's serious expression, it was probably no small matter.
But none of them could guess what he was going to say, because nothing had happened recently.
"Tell me, have you encountered any difficulties?" Old Man Duan asked his second son.
"No, Dad, it's a great thing I'm going to say." Duan Deming replied.
As a woman, Song Meilan was even more sensitive. She hurriedly asked, "Did Shu Xian talk about boyfriends? Are you planning on getting engaged? "
Duan Shumin immediately stared at her, and sized up Duan Shu Xian with a complicated expression. She wished that it would be like what her mother said, that she would get engaged to an ordinary boyfriend, and the pressure that was pressing on her heart would disappear.
As long as she was married, Xi Jingchen would have no chance of winning his life. Even if Xi Jingchen was lacking in women, he wouldn't have taken a fancy to a married woman, right?
Li Yu smiled and said, "Shu Xian is only going to have a boyfriend, she hasn't reached the point of getting engaged yet."
"Oh!" Who was the other party? What do you do? " Song Meilan couldn't wait to know.
Li Deliang also laughed, "This is indeed a good thing! Our Duan Clan hasn't had a happy occasion in a long time. We had originally hoped that Si Ye would hurry up and get married! But he's in no hurry now. "
Old Man Duan was also happy, "It's not a bad thing for girls to get married early."
Duan Shumin, who was standing opposite her, could not help but heave a sigh of relief. She was certain that the man Duan Shu Xian was dating was an ordinary man, because even with her life circle, she could not recognize any higher ups.
And, of course, it would be announced at the dinner table, at least in a stable relationship.
"Shu Xian, congratulations!" Duan Shumin said to her, indicating that she was also happy to see such a thing happen.
At that moment, Duan Shu Xian's face was slightly flushed. She would definitely be in front of her elders, talking about such a thing, she was still unable to remain calm. Hearing Duan Shumin's words, she was slightly surprised.But soon, she guessed that this cousin must have thought she had a different boyfriend.
Song Meilan, who was on the other side, was getting impatient, "Aiyo! Sister-in-law, quickly tell us! What does Shu Xian's boyfriend do? Where is he from? "How do you know him?"
This was probably what a woman wanted to gossip about! Song Meilan wanted to confirm one thing, who Duan Shu Xian was going to marry, this also meant what kind of life Li Yu would live in the future.
Duan Deming laughed, "Who the other party is is not important, the important thing is who is good to Shu Xian! In our eyes, we are people of character, regardless of family background. "
"How can we do that? You only have one girl, how can you not see your family? Our family background is not bad, we can't possibly marry a person who's too poor, right? " Song Meilan pretended to be here to persuade her with good intentions.The Old Man Duan also nodded. "Right, our Duan Clan's daughter can't marry too badly."
"As long as our cousin is happy, it's fine. We don't need to interfere too much." Duan Shumin started to speak, she didn't want her mother and grandfather to disrupt Duan Shu Xian's relationship."Yes, Sister Min is right. No matter who I marry, as long as I feel happy, it's fine." Duan Shu Xian pursed her lips and smiled.
Duan Shumin could not help but look over, she could not see what Duan Shu Xian meant by joining her.
"Then hurry up and tell us about the male side!" Song Meilan had been suppressing it for too long, she hurriedly asked.
"If it's the man's side, you should have met him before, sister-in-law." Duan Deming was also thinking how he should explain so that his big brother and sister-in-law would not find it easier to accept.Song Meilan was stunned for a few seconds, she immediately thought, "I've seen it before? When have I ever seen one! I don't think I've seen any young boys lately! "
"Not recently either. Last year." Li Yu mentioned. She suddenly thought of what Xi Jingchen had said and told her not to hide it from her family. Sooner or later, he would appear, and after all, they were openly talking about love, and if they did not interfere with each other, then why not say it out loud?
"Of what?" His name is Xi Jingchen. " Duan Shu Xian suddenly shouted loudly.The hand that Duan Shumin was holding onto the cup was faintly trembling. Her heart was severely stifled, and after taking a few deep breaths, she said in a sharp voice, "Impossible, why are you two together?"
Song Meilan's expression was also plentiful. She had always wanted to know the man's family background, but now, she knew, she realized that Duan Shu Xian's boyfriend was actually your son.
Old Man Duan was also shocked, "What? Shu Xian, your boyfriend is called Xi Jingchen? "He is your esteemed son?"
Duan Deming turned to his father and said, "Yes, father, is your son." Hadn't he been with MinMin before? " Old Man Duan asked again, because Song Meilan had kept asking at home, causing him to think that Duan Shumin had dated Xi Jingchen before. On Duan Deliang's face, there was also some astonishment. So it was Your Excellency's …
His son, but no matter what, he felt that his heart wasn't bad.
"This is a very happy occasion." Duan Deliang spoke sincerely. Husband, what kind of happy occasion is this! He was obviously dating the young master of Xi Family first, how did Shu Xian suddenly become his girlfriend? What the heck is this! " Song Meilan's thoughts went through a hundred cycles and a thousand cycles, thinking that this matter was Duan Shu Xian's fault …How can you rob a man whose daughter has taken a fancy to him so openly?
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean? Shu Xian and Young Master Xi met at school, and at that time, you still hadn't brought Min Min to go on a blind date in Pavilion Lord Manor! " Li Yu said to Song Meilan.
Song Meilan's expression changed, she looked extremely ugly as she stared at Duan Shu Xian, "There are so many outstanding boys in this world, why are you so particular about the one Min Min likes?"
Duan Shumin suddenly stood up, her eyes red from anger as she looked at Duan Shu Xian. "You promised me that you would leave him, how could you go back on your words?"
She looked at Duan Shumin and said, "I didn't promise you anything, and I don't have to promise you anything. I said before, the reason I chose to leave him is because I unilaterally think that I don't deserve him, and that it has nothing to do with you.""Min Min, what did you say? You knew she was stealing Young Master Xi? Why didn't you say so earlier? When did this happen? " Song Meilan asked her daughter anxiously.
Old Man Duan was startled as well. He had never thought that there would come a day where both of his granddaughters would fall in love with the same man.
Duan Deliang did not know how to persuade his daughter and his wife. Duan Shumin's grievances seemed to suddenly surge out, she gritted his teeth and said, "Right, she stole him. When I was in the room the other day, he told me Xi Jingchen's true identity, but not long after, I went to the school and found out that they kissed me.
"Say, is this considered robbery?""Duan Shu Xian's eyes slightly widened. She had already mentioned this before, that she knew of Xi Jingchen earlier than her. Even if she knew of his identity, it was still earlier than what she had said." Min Min Min, what you said isn't right. What do you mean Shu Xian took it? She and the Young Master Xi got to know each other early in school, before we even knew that you had a blind date with him! Furthermore, Young Master Xi is your son, doesn't he have the right to choose? They are mutual feelings. "
