Chapter 0684: Swap and Threat
"Hmph! Business is like this, everything is based on the interests of the family, let others say it if they like to chew their tongues!" Cai Mingri's retort was slightly pale, and he also knew that the rumors outside were very unfavorable to him, but he was powerless to stop it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Cai Universe immediately put on a posture of a young family master, pointed at Cai Mingri and said lightly: "You can be shameless, but don't forget, you are still a member of the Cai family after all, and everything must be based on the reputation of the family!"
"Hey, universe, how do you speak?" Cai Ruize immediately frowned and looked at Cai Yuankang: "Big brother, you still don't care about this child, if you don't care, I'll discipline you for you!"
"That's right, tomorrow Japan is young, and it is inevitable to do wrong things, why say ugly things in front of so many people?" Cai Mingri's mother also had an angry face.
"Hehe, it's normal for children to fight, after all, it's all for the sake of the family! Let's not take it too seriously as adults, and the family won't have overnight feuds. Cai Yuankang played a round on the surface, but he was very disdainful in his heart, he thought that what his son said was not wrong, and these were all Cai Mingri's own faults.
"You ......" Cai Ruize felt that he had punched the cotton, and his mouth opened slightly, but he found that he didn't know how to defend Cai Mingri.
At this time, Old Man Cai coughed twice, and said indifferently: "Okay, let's say a few words! As the eldest brother of the small universe, when you find out the problems of your brothers and sisters, you should help them in time, instead of standing here and saying cool words! Tomorrow, you usually don't be too public, you have performed quite well this year, and then complete the finishing work of the hotel as soon as possible, and let Patriarch Gerald accept it." β
"Okay, grandpa, I know. β
Cai Universe and Cai Mingri hurriedly agreed, and when they saw that their grandfather came forward, they didn't dare to continue pinching, so they had to sit honestly and wait for others to speak.
"Xiaoyue, let's talk about your situation!" The old man Cai looked at Cai Mingyue, and the helplessness in his eyes was fleeting.
"I ...... I facilitated the cooperation between the Yueronghua Group and the Gerald family, and also opened an original ecological hotel, although the income is not as good as that of my eldest brother, but the hotel is on the right track, and has opened a branch. Cai Mingyue bit her lower lip, she was quite optimistic before attending the meeting, but when it was her turn to speak, she felt a little weak for some reason.
Compared to Cai Universe, Cai Mingyue felt that what she had done was really minimal, and during the period of running the original ecological hotel, she was in a state of being expelled from the Cai family, and she did not make any contribution to the family at all, so it was inevitable that she felt a little unable to raise her head.
"As a female streamer in three generations, you've done a great job. Old Man Cai nodded, but suddenly changed the conversation and asked: "I heard your second aunt mention a few days ago that Zhao Siyu of the Zhao family in Mingcheng seems to have admired you for a long time, but you didn't agree to his pursuit, can you tell grandpa the specific reason?"
"Ah?!Zhao Siyu?" Cai Mingyue was slightly stunned, she was still immersed in the joy of her grandfather's appreciation, but this familiar name pulled her back to reality, did her mention this person at the family meeting, did she have any plans?
After pondering for a while, Cai Mingyue faintly guessed the reason in her heart, but she still carefully explained: "Grandpa, the reason why I don't accept Zhao Siyu is because I already have a boyfriend, and I get along very well with Chu Nan, and I won't think about other boys anymore." β
"Xiaoyue, I think you should know that as a descendant of a big family, you can never decide your marriage casually, especially if you don't know Chu Nan's background, but the Zhao family is diametrically opposed, you and Zhao Siyu are obviously more pros than cons together, the key is that it will also help the career of the Cai family. The old man shook his head and persuaded bitterly.
"But I ......" Cai Mingyue was so aggrieved that she wanted to refute two sentences, but before she could finish speaking, Old Man Cai pointed at Cai Yichen and interrupted directly: "Your father is a lesson from the past, if he married the younger generation of the Hong family back then, the status of our Cai family would not have climbed so slowly." β
Cai Yichen wanted to say a few words for his daughter, but when he saw Old Man Cai's stern gaze, he immediately became dumb, and at the same time secretly blamed himself in his heart, feeling that he was very useless, and he didn't even have the courage to fight for his daughter's marriage rights, it was too wretched.
"There is another thing, if Xiao Yue agrees to marry the Zhao family, then I will promise to let your mother's spiritual position enter our Cai family ancestral hall, so you had better think about it. Old Man Cai warned again, in fact, his mood was a little heavy at this time, but for the sake of the family, he could only be a bad guy once.
Cai Mingyue was completely dumbfounded now, she didn't expect her grandfather, who once loved her so much, to actually take her mother's spiritual position as an exchange condition, and threaten her to marry someone she didn't like at all, could it be that in the eyes of her grandfather, in addition to money and status, there is no family affection?
Recalling Chu Nan's doubts before, Cai Mingyue felt that she was really too naΓ―ve, and while desperately wanting to be recognized by her grandfather, she ignored many possible hidden dangers, so that she fell into the trap defenselessly and was difficult to get out.
The next meeting was a bit boring, and everyone focused on Cai Mingyue, wanting to see how she would decide and what new conditions she proposed.
In the end, Cai Mingyue still said the previous three words in a daze, and then without waiting for her grandfather to announce the end of the meeting, she stood up under the various eyes of everyone and staggered out of the conference room.
Seeing this, Cai Yichen hurriedly stepped forward to help her, until he sent Cai Mingyue back to the room, seeing that she was still in a dazed state, he had to sigh and turn away.
"Hey, Uncle Cai......" Li Mengmeng came out of the bedroom when he heard the movement, and found that there was something wrong with Cai Mingyue, and was about to stop Cai Yichen to inquire about the situation, but he saw him leave quickly, so he had no choice but to touch Cai Mingyue lightly and asked, "Sister Mingyue, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while. Cai Mingyue shook her head blankly, sitting on the sofa in a daze, not knowing how to face her future life.
"That'...... Rest there. Li Mengmeng saw Cai Mingyue's state and felt that the problem was quite serious, so he picked up his mobile phone and closed the door, came to the corridor and sent a WeChat message to Chu Nan, asking him to come back as soon as possible.
After Chu Nan received WeChat, he immediately rushed back to Caijia without saying a word, only to see Li Mengmeng anxiously pacing back and forth outside his room, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What happened? What happened to Xiaoyue? Have you asked the reason?"
