I have someone I like. Don’t bother. 。Zhu Yu’an wanted to cut his mother’s idea of setting him up on dates short with a single sentence. 。To her surprise, the moment her emotions calmed down, they surged up again. She raised her voice and shouted: “Who do you like? The one who ruined your blind date tonight, that ane? I absolutely disagree with this girl. It’s fine to have a romantic relationship, but marrying into the Zhuo family is out of the question!” 。”As far as I know, she’s a single parent, right?”
Zhuo Yu’an’s face changed suddenly: “Did you look into her background? Regardless of whether my relationship with her is just friendship, even if we were really dating, what right do you have to investigate someone’s privacy?”
Cheng Zhimin didn’t think it was a big deal to check on others: “What’s the harm in checking? I need to be responsible for your dating status.” 。I heard you’re spreading rumors about someone named Lin at work. Mom saw her picture and said she’s not your type. Mom won’t interfere if you just play around with her. 。”Even Lian Linzhi’s background check?” Zhuo YUAN couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine. His voice was chillingly cold, devoid of any emotion:
“Who else have you checked?”
His gaze pierced through Cheng Zhimin like ice, making him momentarily uneasy. 。Besides, Zhuo Hong was also looking at her coldly, thinking she talked too much. After all, inquiring about the girls he’d been with wasn’t exactly a glorious thing to do, and yet she had gone and exposed it all. 。Cheng Zhimin took a deep breath and calmed herself:
“I haven’t checked, and you don’t have any other feelings, do you? Mom is doing this for your own good, and for the Zhuo family’s good as well.” 。You need to know that your other half directly concerns at least four generations of the Zhuo family, from your grandfather to your future children, so there can’t be any mistakes. 。The matter of the daughter-in-law in the Sun family is a warning. 。Zhu Yu’an originally wanted to communicate with his mother again, but suddenly felt that it was impossible to communicate. 。Her mother was born into a large family and developed a strong sense of class consciousness from a young age. Furthermore, upon marrying into the Zhuo family, she placed the interests of the Zhuo family above all else. The concept of social hierarchy was deeply ingrained in her very being. 。Zhu YUAN realized this in high school, so after graduating from high school, he chose to study abroad and start a business overseas, all to get rid of the constraints of his family. 。…but what I didn’t expect was that after he had achieved success and gained enough ability, his mother and father still wanted to try and plan his life. … 。He sneered: “Mom, stop this ridiculous behavior. Stay out of my affairs.” 。I am not asking you now, but demanding. 。This is my red line, you can’t cross it. 。When he’s assertive, he’s truly assertive. This applies to his parents as well. In terms of academics and career choices, he has never compromised. He certainly won’t compromise in matters of love. 。”From childhood to adulthood, your father and I have never constrained you. You can’t live so selfishly, only caring about your own comfort.” 。”Is this just an introduction to a potential partner? Why are you getting so angry?”
“I’ve said all I have to say.” 。He left the sentence and slammed the door shut. 。This evening I accompanied my grandfather for a walk along the city wall outside the hutong. 。The old man dressed simply and kept a low profile, but there was an aura of dignity about him that naturally commanded respect. 。Zhuo Yu’an didn’t speak the whole way. The argument he had with his mother this evening was likely already known to the old man. 。After walking for a while, the old man finally spoke.
“Do you have someone you like?” he asked straight to the point. 。”Well” 。The old man stopped and glanced at him, his expression unreadable. “Take him home to meet…” 。When the time is right 。The old man was actually more reasonable than your parents. On the way home, he said solemnly: “Your mom and dad are smart, capable, and good at everything outside the house. But they can’t handle you because they love you. They always treat you like a child and want to control you.” 。 。Grandpa had only one virtue: he was honest and upright, and a kind person. He wouldn’t drag down the Zhuo family, providing someone with a handle to criticize them. 。。Perhaps the old man also talked to his parents, and in the following days, his mother stopped urging him to go on blind dates. 。He continued to accompany the old man in his usual activities: playing chess, hiking, and taking walks. He occasionally received guests until the eighth day of the first lunar month, when most businesses resumed operations. He gradually entered work mode because he needed to attend a technology exhibition with Ane, followed by several industry conferences. This meant his return to Senzhou was postponed repeatedly. Only Wang Yan remained at Zhuo Yuan Technology to oversee things. 。Three people had a video conference,
Wang Yan looked heartbroken: “Ane is just partial, she came back to the country and has been hiding in Beijing with you, not coming to Senzhou to see me” 。”Ann laughed: “I’ll be working in Senzhou often from now on, so I’ll have plenty of time.” 。”
So, our chief product designer at Zhuoyuan Technology finally agreed to lift the veil of secrecy, and the interview is set! ” 。“Get out!”
Shu Tinglan went to the law firm on time on the eighth day of the first lunar month. Thanks to Zhuo Yu’an, she had been eating well and sleeping well. Now full of energy, she was ready for battle at any time. As soon as she turned on her computer, she immediately entered work mode. She didn’t have any post-holiday blues at all. 。
Ji Jia came back from a trip abroad with her parents. Her mind wasn’t fully back yet, and as soon as she entered the office, she started talking about everything she saw and heard along the way. However, most of it was complaining about the unreasonable itinerary arranged by her parents. 。Chatting and complaining while handing out carefully prepared gifts one by one, she gained a wave of goodwill. 。Director Xiao went home to spend the New Year with his parents. Even after returning, he was visibly tired. He sat at his desk for a while before turning on his computer. 。Zhou Ming, on the other hand, was as energetic as ever, not at all like someone who had just returned from a road trip. He threw a bag onto Shu Tinglan’s table: “I brought you some local specialties >>>” 。Thank you, Teacher Zhou. 。Someone in the crowd heckled: “Zhou Lü is biased, he only brings souvenirs for Ting Lan, what about us?””Haven’t I brought you guys enough before?” Zhou Ming was nonchalant, he gave gifts to whomever he felt like it. 。The morning passed in a bustling atmosphere. 。Lin Zhiyao hadn’t returned to Senzhou. During a video call with Shu Tinglan last night, she kept complaining: “You know how insidious Zhuo Yuyan is? After the New Year, he directly sent me to Hu’an City to meet the candidates and didn’t let me go back to Senzhou. He doesn’t think I don’t know his motives.” 。”
Did you offend him?
He’s just feeling guilty.” 。”Lin Zhiyan recalled that before Chinese New Year, at Zhuoyuan Technology, she told him he wasn’t suitable for Shuling Lan and advised him to stay away from Shuling Lan. At the time, he said he would handle it himself. As a result, he sent her to Hu’an City, thousands of miles away, to meet some candidates. What a ridiculous excuse! It was just a way for him to transfer her away from Senzhou and prevent her from exposing his secrets with Shuling Lan.” 。He doesn’t seem like the type to be nervous. 。Shu Tinglan thought to herself that Zhuo Yu’an was incredibly thick-skinned. 。”Well, he knows what’s best for him.”
。I won’t be able to go back to Hu’an until at least a week later. The candidates I’m looking for are busier than the Emperor and harder to schedule. 。This text is an HTML placeholder, it doesn’t have any actual content to translate.
