Duan Shu Xian sat beside her mother. She could feel that not only was her grandfather happy, even her uncle and aunt looked happier than before. Was there any good news tonight?
Duan Shumin sat beside her mother. She knew what her parents were about to say, and she couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed.
Before Old Man Duan even started, he couldn't help but pour his most precious wine, and also pour it for his two sons. Duan Siye sat a little further away from him, and he didn't forget to say, "Si Ye, bring the cup over, grandpa will pour you a cup."
"Thank you, grandfather." Duan Siye stood up and passed the wine cup over.
"This is your grandfather's collection. Normally, I don't even have a cup to drink. Today, your grandfather is happy, so you should also benefit from it." Duan Deliang said to his son.
"Then I'll have to properly repay my grandfather's collection." Duan Siye laughed.
Li Yu, who was at the side, could not help but ask, "Dad, do you have something happy to tell us today?"
Old Man Duan took a sip of his wine and said, "Yes, I have something very happy to announce today. It's about our Min Min! This matter is something that our Duan Clan is honored to have. "
"Grandfather …" Duan Shumin was a little embarrassed, she must have only been lucky enough to go to Pavilion Lord Manor for a meal, she had not even started dating him yet!
"The people sitting here today are all family. What's there to be embarrassed about? It's not like it's shameful to say it out loud." Old Man Duan was truly happy, because he was very confident in his granddaughter. He felt that she would definitely be the First Lady in the future.
If one were to say who he liked the most amongst these three grandchildren, it would probably be Duan Shumin. To him, money was already a worldly possession, only the Duan Clan's reputation was the most important.
She looked at her grandfather curiously, not knowing what her grandfather was going to announce so happily. On the other hand, Duan Deming, who was at the side, was a little worried.
"Dad, let me say it!" Song Meilan said to Old Man Duan.
"Alright!" Old Man Duan nodded.
Song Meilan said with a smile, "On Saturday, I accompanied Xiao Min to Pavilion Lord Manor as a guest. It was Madam President who personally called me to invite Xiao Min and I to do it when we have time. It just so happens that it's on Saturday."
Duan Shu Xian raised her head in surprise. So this was what her grandfather was happy about!
At the side, Duan Shumin pursed her lips, her eyes filled with anticipation and hope.
"Sister-in-law, from what you said, it seems like Little Min and Young Master Xi's meeting this time was very successful."
Li Yu, who was sitting beside Duan Shu Xian, smiled and agreed.
Duan Shu Xian was chewing on the vegetables when she suddenly bit her tongue absent-mindedly. She was in so much pain that she didn't dare to make a sound, but she was shocked in her heart.
As her mind went blank, she heard Song Meilan say with a smile, "Madam likes our Min Min very much. She keeps praising her!"
"Then Madam must have taken a fancy to Min Min as her future daughter-in-law." Li Yu immediately replied with a smile.
She forgot about the pain of her tongue being bitten. She looked at her aunt, who was smiling, and her shy and happy cousin. At this moment, she was stunned.
"Yes, Min Min will become the future president's wife." Old Man Duan said with certainty.
Duan Deliang was also full of confidence in his daughter, "Min Min, you can do it."
Duan Shumin was feeling the encouragement of the entire family, so she nodded, "I will work hard. Currently, Young Master Xi and I still need time to get along."
Duan Shu Xian suddenly felt a trace of saltiness in her mouth. It was the taste of blood that she had bitten hard on just now! Along with that, there was an indescribable fear in her heart.
The news came as a complete surprise to her.
So he was actually his cousin's blind date!
Duan Shu Xian's heart was filled with bitterness. No matter how delicious the dishes were tonight, they couldn't cover up the bitterness in her heart.
Duan Deming looked over worriedly, but Duan Shu Xian lowered her eyes. Other than him, no one else noticed her thoughts.
Duan Deming sighed inwardly. He hoped that his daughter would not be affected by this matter.
"Min Min, since even the madam has noticed you, it means that you are very outstanding. In the future, marrying into the Pavilion Lord Manor will definitely not be a problem. His Excellency the President and the others will definitely have high standards for their future daughter-in-law.
Old Man Duan continued.
Duan Shumin also felt a trace of pressure in her heart. This made her really want to immediately obtain Xi Jingchen's favor. This way, she wouldn't let down her family's expectations.
It seemed that she had to go to A University more often in the future to create an encounter with Xi Jingchen. Perhaps only by understanding each other more would they have the chance to be together.
After dinner, Duan Shumin led Duan Shu Xian upstairs, "Xiao Xian, I have something to say to you."
At this moment, Duan Shu Xian did not dare to reveal the bitterness in her heart. She pursed her lips and smiled, "Alright!"
After going up the stairs and entering Duan Shumin's room, her gaze was serious and cautious, "Xiao Xian, you should know Teacher Xi's identity now, but I beg of you to keep this a secret. Other than our family, no one else will know about this matter."
Duan Shu Xian had never wanted anyone else to know that she had already found out about Xi Jingchen's identity. Now, it was impossible for her to pretend that she didn't know.
"So he's your son." Duan Shu Xian pretended to be surprised.
Duan Shumin pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes revealing anticipation, "Xiao Xian, do you know? He and I are very fated. I fell in love with him two years ago. I'm really happy that I can go on a blind date with him this time. "
Duan Shumin urgently needed someone to share the joy in her heart, and in the Duan Clan, Duan Shu Xian was the most suitable peer to share it with.
Duan Shu Xian's eyes were filled with a smile, but her heart was tightening and shrinking, as if she wanted to shrink to a place that she couldn't see. That way, she could pretend that it didn't hurt.
"Is that so? "Then I wish you all the best." Duan Shu Xian said sincerely.
Duan Shumin pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you, in two years, you will also find your other half."
Duan Shu Xian wrung her hands, shook her head and laughed, "I'm not in a hurry, I still want to play for a few more years."
"I don't want to wait anymore. I'm sure, I want to marry him." Duan Shumin said very directly, her tone very certain.
Duan Shu Xian's eyes revealed her blessings. Her outstanding cousin, marrying Xi Jingchen, couldn't be more suitable!
At this moment, in Duan Shu Xian's mind, all the images of her together with Xi Jingchen had returned to a blank. If she knew his identity, she wouldn't dare to love him, and now, she wouldn't even have the qualifications to love him.
How could she steal the person her cousin had set her eyes on? She would never do such a thing to hurt her family.
Downstairs, Old Man Duan was also chatting with Duan Deming. There was a hint of exhortation in his tone.
Even if Duan Deming knew Xi Jingchen's identity, he wouldn't say a single word to outsiders.
Around 9 PM, Duan Deming and his family walked towards the car, preparing to leave.
In the quiet carriage, there was a broadcast. Li Yu was talking about the recent business matters, and Duan Deming was chatting with her.
Duan Shu Xian, who was sitting in the back seat, didn't want to say a word.
Li Yu felt that she was too quiet, so he turned around and looked at her, "Xiao Xian, what are you thinking about!"
"Ugh …" "I'm not thinking about anything." Duan Shu Xian hurriedly replied.
Duan Deming looked at his daughter who was curled up in the back seat through the rearview mirror with a pained expression. It was not convenient for him to mention that matter in front of his wife, so his wife did not know that there were some rumors between Young Master Xi and his daughter in school.
Duan Shu Xian closed her eyes and fell asleep in a daze. In her dreams, she was sitting at a grand wedding, looking at the man and woman exchanging diamond rings on the stage. Under the priest's reading, they kissed each other.
The groom was Xi Jingchen, and the bride was Duan Shumin. At that moment, in her dreams, she heard her heart shattering.
It wasn't until her mother's voice called out to her that she suddenly woke up. In the darkness, she felt tears at the corner of her eyes.
"Xiao Xian, we're home. Hurry up and get off!" Li Yu's voice sounded.
Duan Shu Xian hurriedly wiped away her tears and replied, "Alright!"
She pushed the door open and got off the car. Fortunately, her parents were chatting about something and didn't notice her emotions. Duan Shu Xian sighed softly. In her mind, it was still the scene from her dream, it was so real.
Perhaps, this was not a dream. This was what would happen in the future. If he wanted to talk about "CEO Daddy is super awesome" with more like-minded people, follow "Reading Literature" on WeChat.
