Duan Shumin looked around. What she was looking forward to the most in her heart was seeing Xi Jingchen. Ever since that one glance two years ago, she had been looking forward to it.
Before Xi Jingchen even went downstairs, Xi Yang impatiently came over to see Duan Shumin.
Because she felt that this big sister might be her future sister-in-law, she wanted to take a look for her big brother first.
"Mom." Xi Yang giggled as he sat down.
"Yang Yang, go call your brother down and tell him that the guest has arrived." Chu Yue said to her daughter.
Xi Yang looked at Duan Shumin's beautiful face and immediately said with satisfaction, "Alright, I'll go call him now."
Xi Yang quickly walked into the elevator at the side and pressed the number for the sixth floor. When the elevator opened, she skipped towards Xi Jingchen's study.
She pushed open the door to the study and saw her big brother sitting there reading a book. She smiled and said, "Big brother, that big sister is already here. Aren't you going down to see her?"
"You've seen it?" Xi Jingchen asked.
"I've seen her. She's very beautiful. She's quite compatible with you, Big Brother." Xi Yang laughed.
"You're so young, what do you know?" Xi Jingchen stood up and walked over to rub her head.
"Why don't I understand? I'm almost an adult! Big brother, don't you like beautiful big sister? "Xi Yang asked curiously.
Xi Jingchen's gaze deepened, and he laughed, "Then tell me, should I choose a woman that's suitable for me, or a woman that I like?"
Xi Yang immediately blinked his eyes, "Are you saying that one is suitable for you, and the other is what you like?"
"En!" Xi Jingchen nodded.
"Of course I have to choose what I like!" After Xi Yang finished speaking, he added, "Is there a need to choose? I, a child, understand the logic!"
Xi Jingchen rubbed her little head again, his eyes flashing with determination, "You're right, you should choose what you like."
"Brother, the big sister you like isn't the one downstairs, right?" Xi Yang was a little confused.
Xi Jingchen said to her, "Do you want to come down with me?"
"Mm, alright." Xi Yang held his hand, "Big brother, no matter what choice you make, your sister will definitely support you."
Xi Jingchen lovingly patted her little head, "Alright."
In the living room downstairs, Duan Shumin was drinking tea. When she heard footsteps coming from outside the door, her heart immediately tensed up. She raised her head and saw a pair of siblings walking in from outside the door.
The tall and straight man was Xi Jingchen. She had only taken a glance at the man she had been secretly in love with for two years. She finally had the chance to meet him.
Her heart was pounding, and she was even a little flustered in front of him. She was as shy as a little girl.
"Jing Chen, you're here. Come and sit." Chu Yue called out to her children.
Song Meilan also sized up this young master of the Xi Clan. He was indeed a talented person with an imposing appearance. In the future, he would even be the successor of this country. If his daughter could marry him, that would be a great blessing!
Xi Jingchen looked at the mother and daughter pair, he politely nodded his head and walked to his mother's side.
"Jing Chen, let me introduce you. This is Mrs. Duan, and the one beside her is her daughter, Duan Shumin." Chu Yue introduced.
When Xi Jingchen heard Duan Shumin's name, his gaze couldn't help but size her up. Duan Shumin immediately smiled shyly, the adoration in her eyes was hard to conceal, she smiled and said, "Young Master Xi, I wonder if you still remember that we met once two years ago."
Xi Jingchen did not have any effect on her, but what surprised him was that this Miss Duan in front of him was only one word different from Duan Shu Xian. Could it be that Duan Shu Xian was related to her in some way?
Naturally, he did not ask. He only had some doubts in his heart.
"Is that so?" Xi Jingchen replied with a smile.
"Yes, that day I accompanied my dad to the Pavilion Lord Manor to retrieve the documents. I saw you in the garden." Duan Shumin really hoped that he would be able to do it that day.
Seeing that her son and Duan Shumin had started chatting, Chu Yue said to Song Meilan, "Mrs. Duan, I got a few good paintings last time, how about we go and enjoy them together?"
Of course Song Meilan understood, she smiled and said, "It's my honor."
"Jing Chen, help me greet Miss Duan." Chu Yue patted her son's shoulder, then pulled her daughter away.
In the living room, there were only two young people left. Duan Shumin was a little nervous, if it was another man, she might not be nervous at all, but Xi Jingchen was not an ordinary man, he would be the most respected man in the future of this country.
"Miss Duan, your name is not bad." Xi Jingchen praised, but another bright and beautiful smile appeared in his mind.
Duan Shumin was overjoyed, she was naturally very happy to be praised, she asked curiously, "Young Master Xi, do you usually have any hobbies?"
"Currently, I like reading and exercising." Xi Jingchen replied politely.
Duan Shumin was even more curious about what he was doing now, because with his identity, he would definitely start to participate in some matters related to his work in the future. However, she did not hear any news about him at work.
"Young Master Xi, other than these hobbies, have you participated in any other work?" Duan Shumin continued to ask, because she really did not know anything about him. She could not wait to understand everything about him.
Xi Jingchen did not plan to talk about his teaching work, he thought for a while and said, "I'm resting for now, and will occasionally understand the situation at the grassroots level."
"Pavilion Lord Manor has always been very mysterious in my heart. I want to go out for a walk in the garden, can Young Master Xi accompany me?" Duan Shumin invited.
"Of course." Xi Jingchen's job was to greet her. No matter what identity she had today, he could not lose his manners as a host.
Duan Shumin walked with light footsteps, accompanied by Xi Jingchen. Her 1.7m tall figure and his 1.85m tall figure accompanied each other, creating a scene that was right for each other. If it was just looking at the scene of them walking together, they would definitely be a perfect couple.
Just then, a white figure suddenly jumped out from the flowers at the side, scaring Duan Shumin. She turned around and hid beside Xi Jingchen, who reached out to support her and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, it's probably my sister's cat."
Sure enough, on the balcony at the side, the white figure jumped up to the window and squatted on the balcony to bask in the sun.
Duan Shumin's heart was naturally sweet, she could feel his subconscious protection just now.
"Your sister is very cute!" Duan Shumin praised, then turned her head to look at the man beside her. In the warm winter sun, his face also gave off a gentle and jade-like feeling, he was the kind of person that was described in novels as a modest gentleman.
But at the same time, under his gentle appearance, there was an aura of wisdom hidden within. There was a sense of maturity and steadiness that no one dared to underestimate.
"Miss Duan, do you have any siblings?" Xi Jingchen asked curiously.
Duan Shumin laughed, "I also have a big brother, his name is Duan Siye, I don't know if you recognize him."
Xi Jingchen nodded, "Although I haven't had the chance to meet him yet, I know that he is an outstanding person."
Duan Shumin couldn't help but feel honored. She was also proud that she had such an outstanding brother.
However, Xi Jingchen only asked this question because he wanted to know about another person. Who was Duan Shu Xian to her? Or was it just a coincidence? They weren't from the same family at all?
Not far away, in the teahouse on the third floor, Chu Yue and Song Meilan were tasting their tea, coincidentally seeing the two people walking together in the garden below. Chu Yue's eyes revealed a hint of anticipation, if her son liked this Miss Duan, maybe they would be able to get married this year. Song Meilan was also very excited, she believed that her daughter would definitely be able to obtain the heart of this Young Master Xi. If her daughter could marry into the Pavilion Lord Manor, how great would that be!
Only the young girl holding the orange cat in her arms revealed a vexed and puzzled expression. Didn't big brother say that he had someone he liked?
At noon, Chu Yue stayed behind to eat lunch with Song Meilan and her mother. The atmosphere at lunch was naturally not bad, and after lunch, Xi Jingchen returned to the study room. Song Meilan saw that it was getting late. Although she was reluctant to leave, it was not good for her to continue disturbing them.
"Alright, take care. We'll meet again if there's a chance." Chu Yue watched them leave.
"Madam, I'll invite you to the Duan Clan some other day." Song Meilan warmly invited.
"Good!" "Then let's make an appointment!" Chu Yue replied with a smile.
Chu Yue thought of something, and said to Duan Shumin: "Shumin, when you have time, go to A University for a walk. “
Duan Shumin's eyes lit up. So it turned out that Xi Jingchen was teaching at the university. She pursed her lips and smiled, "Alright! I'll go over if I have the chance. "
After sending off Song Meilan and her daughter, Chu Yue led her daughter back to the hall. She said to her daughter, "I'll go chat with your big brother for a while, you should go practice the piano." If he wanted to chat with more like-minded people about "CEO Daddy is super awesome", he would follow "Youread Literature" on WeChat.
