Chapter 25: Venture Capital Upstart vs. Heiress 10
Shen Linzhou stood at the door of Chun Nianren's study with a cup of coffee in his hand and knocked on the door.
Ever since Chun Nian came back from Jinghu Villa last time, he has been drinking the coffee he brews every day.
He heard a cold voice from inside and pushed the door open.
Chun Nianren closed the computer, leaned back in his chair, rubbed his forehead, and his eyes fell lightly on Shen Linzhou's face.
Shen Linzhou lowered his head as usual, put down his coffee and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Chun Nian called him slowly, "The Xu family's engagement party is tomorrow, you really don't want to go?"
Shen Linzhou paused slightly and nodded calmly.
Chun Nianren chuckled, nodded meaningfully, and reached out to bring the coffee. Shen Linzhou was quite good at making coffee.
There was still a pile of documents waiting for her to sign. She narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked at the time on the corner of the table. It was already ten o'clock in the evening.
When Chun Nianren finished his work and returned to the bedroom, Shen Linzhou was already asleep.
The young man lay on his side, his melancholy face relaxed and peaceful under the soft warm light of the bedside lamp.
Chun Nianren went forward, turned off the light, and lay down on the other side.
Shen Linzhou felt a heat source approaching him in his sleep. When he woke up, he found Chun Nian was right behind him.
He turned around slowly, and the woman's delicate and cold sleeping face was close to him in the darkness.
Her usually arrogant and cold eyes were closed, unconsciously revealing a rare calmness.
He raised his hand boldly, and his fingers ran from Chun Nianren's eyebrows to the soft corners of her lips, and his fingertips touched her cold lips.
In the darkness, he chuckled and his gaze became increasingly unfathomable.
The evening colors are rich.
In the banquet hall of the Xu family's main residence, guests were toasting and chatting happily.
The only unhappy person at the moment is Xu Changming. His face is calm and he doesn't show any joy of being engaged.
Shen Xihe, who was standing next to him, was delicate and well-behaved. She was wearing a white cheongsam with red plum blossoms embroidered on it. Her hair was tied behind her head, which made her temperament more gentle.
The only drawback is that she is too young to carry off the dress.
Her eyes were full of joy and anticipation, and her happiness was visible to the naked eye.
But the moment he saw Chun Nian coming towards him, his smile froze and anxiety flashed across his eyes.
"Congratulations."
Chun Nianren stood opposite her and Xu Changming, generously took out a generous red envelope, and spoke calmly.
"I wish you two a happy marriage and a son soon."
Xu Changming did not move, just stared at Chun Nianren, with silent love in his eyes.
The Chun family has reached the pinnacle of their power now, and many people are paying attention to Chun Nianren. They all want to wait for her to have time to come forward and say hello. Now seeing this scene, they feel a little sad.
"I heard that Miss Chun and Mr. Xu were about to get engaged, and Mr. Xu would personally select air-freighted flowers and send them to Miss Chun's office every morning."
"The Chun and Xu families are well matched, but unfortunately... you think the Xu and Shen families are in such a hurry to get engaged, is it because someone wants to gain status by relying on their son?"
"No wonder Miss Chun is so busy with her career. It turns out it's because..."
Everyone exchanged glances, and their eyes fell on Shen Xihe, as if they had peeped into something secret.
Shen Xihe met her mother's determined gaze in the distance and suppressed the uneasiness in her heart.
My mother has already taken care of that matter and will never leave any evidence.
Moreover, if Chunnian had evidence, he would not have kept silent for so many days.
She maintained her smile and took the red envelope politely.
"Thank you Miss Chun for taking the time to attend Changming and I's engagement party."
Chun Nianren curled his lips and smiled faintly: "It's all the friendship between parents."
The Chun and Xu families are old friends, and Xu Changming's mother has never concealed her love for Chun Nianren. The Xu family privately discussed the matter between Xu Changming and Chun Nianren with the elders of the Chun family.
This is also the reason why Chun Nian was the only one from the Chun family who came today. The Xu family was particularly enthusiastic at the beginning, but now they held an engagement banquet with the Shen family without any warning, which was a slap in the face of the Chun family.
When Mrs. Xu heard the servant say that Chun Nianren had arrived, she smiled a little brighter and said to the ladies who were talking, "Nianren is here, you guys chat first, I'll go take a look."
The Chun family was at the peak of their career, but Chun Nian was hard to please, so Mrs. Xu's words attracted many envious glances.
When Shen Xihe saw Madam Xu coming over, she hurriedly said respectfully, "Aunt."
Mrs. Xu nodded indifferently, but her expression suddenly became friendly when she looked at Chun Nianren.
She held Chun Nianren's hand, and her words were full of intimacy and love.
"Think about it, it's been a long time since you last came to see me and your uncle Xu."
Shen Xihe, who was left aside, was in an awkward situation. Under the gazes of others, she felt as if she was being roasted on the fire.
Chun Nian people smiled and joked but were polite.
"Ruoxi always says that you are biased. If I come again, I will be hated."
Mrs. Xu clasped her hands together and patted them affectionately, with a hint of annoyance but with a deeper meaning.
"She doesn't say it, but in her heart she thinks you are more important than her brother. As for the others, whoever dares to say a word means that they don't want to stay in this family anymore."
Everyone understood the meaning of this sentence. Mrs. Xu was speaking to Shen Xihe and had no intention of saving face for her future daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Xu was extremely satisfied with Chun Nianren, but extremely dissatisfied with Shen Xihe.
After all, compared with the trillion-dollar fortune that Chun Nianren, the only daughter of the Chun family, is going to inherit, the Shen family's financial situation is far from enough.
Not to mention the fact that Shen Xihe used inferior means to get to the top.
The matter had already been settled and Mrs. Xu was furious.
If Shen Xihe caused the Xu family and the Chun family to fail in their marriage and instead become enemies, then Shen Xihe would be a real jinx.
Shen Xihe looked at Xu Changming with a humble look asking for help, but all she got in return was Xu Changming's silent indifference.
She gritted her teeth secretly. Now that things had come to this, she had no choice but to hold on to her only bargaining chip.
"Changming, do you like boys or girls?"
Mrs. Xu frowned fiercely. Did she feel proud to let everyone know that she was pregnant before marriage?
Chun Nianren inadvertently saw Xue Can, who was standing behind the crowd and looking at Shen Xihe.
Shen Xihe is pregnant, and the father of the child is not Xu Changming, but Xue Can.
Chun Nianren looked at Shen Xihe, whose hand was clearly resting on her lower abdomen, and asked as she wished.
"Ms. Shen is pregnant?"
Mrs. Xu looked unhappy, but finally nodded and said "hmm" indifferently.
Mrs. Xu's words revealed Shen Xihe's way to the top. Shen Xihe did not feel ashamed. Instead, she secretly glanced at her as if she had won over Chun Nianren.
What's the point of using some means? You should know that there is only one result, that is, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.
No matter how much Xu Changming's mother likes Chun Nianren, she still obediently held the engagement party for the sake of her grandson.
Mrs. Xu values this child very much!
Shen Xihe affectionately put her arm around Xu Changming's arm to assert her sovereignty.
"Miss Chun, please go upstairs and rest for a while. Several guests will arrive later."
