Chapter XXXVI: Conflict
October is coming to an end, and the weather is cold and cold.
There was a bleak scenery outside the window, Su Jinfeng put on his coat, his eyes darkened when he saw Wen Jiàn on the desk, and he turned around and walked out after standing still for a while. Su Fu didn't see anyone else today, he went downstairs and went straight to the door.
"Jin Feng." A deep voice stopped him, and Su Jinfeng stopped but didn't look back. The woman sitting on the sofa looked at his back and frowned, "Where are you going?" ”
"Go to the Chamber of Commerce." Su Jinfeng replied quietly, still not looking back. The eldest lady raised her eyes and looked at him lightly, and said casually, "Uncle Li and I have been choosing a date recently, and I want to hear your and Fengqing's opinions." As he spoke, he picked up the almanac on the table and urged Su Jinfeng softly, "You come and take a look at these days." ”
There was a moment of silence in the hall.
Su Jinfeng unconsciously clenched his right hand, and he slowly turned to look at the person sitting on the sofa.
"Mother, I regret it."
The eldest lady looked at the almanac in her hand unhurriedly, her face was impermanent and her voice was steady, "What do you regret?" Su Jinfeng frowned, and his voice was slightly stronger, "I regret it for you...... promised to marry the Li family. The eldest lady looked up at him quietly, her momentum was calm, and her face was solemn.
"I also asked my mother to withdraw from this marriage on my behalf." Su Jinfeng stared straight at the eldest lady, his eyes unwavering. The eldest lady's face turned sharp when she heard this, and she raised her hand and slammed the almanac in her hand on the table, "What kind of bastard are you talking about!" ”
Su Jinfeng saw her reaction and smiled dismally, "Mother, you always act according to your own will. His smile slowly revealed a hint of bitterness and disappointment, "You didn't even ask me what I really wanted. ”
The eldest lady looked at his expression and felt tight, and was about to explain, "Jinfeng ......"
Su Jinfeng interrupted her abruptly, "Mother, I went to check the accounts of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday without your permission. The eldest lady stood up with a change in her face, "What did you say?" ”
"Mother, how long are you going to hide it from me?" Su Jinfeng stared at her tightly, his words full of disbelief, "If I don't check, I don't know that there is so much deficit in the accounts?" The Su family's principal and profits from doing business over the years have actually been very small...... I just want to ask you, what are you doing with all this amount of money? ”
The eldest lady gradually regained her senses, and she said coldly, "You don't need to know about this matter, as long as you marry Feng Qing smoothly, it won't be a problem." ”
Su Jinfeng smiled, he shook his head lightly, and his tone was resolute, "Mother, I will not be at your mercy anymore." Saying that, he turned around and walked out of the door, and suddenly stopped when he walked to the door, "The young marshal seems to have known that the Su family's business has a problem, so you should make some preparations as soon as possible." ”
The eldest lady suddenly sat down on the sofa as if she had lost all her strength, her face was slightly pale, her expression was solemn, and she whispered a name in her mouth, "Second Master Gu......"
Outside, the sun was dazzling, and the cold wind was swaying. Su Jinfeng walked out of the gate of Su Mansion, and just about to turn right, he collided with a person.
"Oh, Young Master Jinfeng, are you okay?" A pair of hands had already held his arm before he could react, Su Jinfeng looked up, and his expression couldn't help but relax slightly, "I'm fine." He patted the folds on his sleeve and continued, "You are the eldest brother of Wanwan, and you are two years older than me, just call me Jinfeng." ”
Su Junsheng was overjoyed, but he faintly refused, "Don't you dare." He shirked and looked at Su Jinfeng, as if he wanted to say something on his face. Su Jinfeng was stunned for a moment, "Young Master Su has something to say?" ”
Su Junsheng saw him ask like this, so he sighed heavily, "It's not very embarrassing to say this, but for the sake of Qingwan's happiness, I, as her eldest brother, have to help her ask...... Qingwan has reached the age of marriage, has the Su family arranged family affairs for her? ”
Su Jinfeng was stunned for a moment, and his face was slightly cold and silent. Su Junsheng was secretly happy when he saw his reaction, and continued to say, "Actually, I also know that when you were in Beiping, you and Qingjuan's childhood sweetheart had a very good relationship, but after all these years, I don't know ......."
Su Jinfeng looked up at him with a firm look in his eyes, "Jinfeng's mind has never changed. Su Junsheng listened to it, and said excitedly, "That's good, that's good." Su Jinfeng hesitated slightly, "It's just that Wanwan needs time to accept me." He frowned slightly, "I don't want to embarrass her." ”
"How can this be embarrassing, Qingwan, this child, introverted and shy since childhood." Su Junsheng's tone was sincere, "You don't know, in the years in Beiping, she often talked to me about you. ”
Su Jinfeng shook his head, "I think she looks like a ......" Su Junsheng stomped his foot suddenly when he saw his reaction, as if he had made up his mind, "That's it, Young Master Jinfeng, there is one thing, for the sake of Qingwan's reputation, I didn't plan to talk about it." He said as he slowly leaned over, his tone low, "Do you know why Qingwan left Beiping?" Su Jinfeng looked at him and frowned tightly, "Why?" ”
"For you." Su Junsheng said earnestly, patting Su Jinfeng's shoulder as he spoke, his face was very solemn, "She also escaped a marriage, just to come to Shanghai to find you!" Su Jinfeng's heart was shocked, "Is this true?" ”
Su Junsheng immediately raised his hand and put it next to his ear, "I swear, this is true, and it is not adulterated." ”
Su Jinfeng's eyes faintly overflowed with expectation, and he said softly, "You mean, Wanwan is also ...... Some like me? Su Junsheng's face was full of smiles, and his tone was affirmative, "I definitely like it, I can't be wrong!" ”
Su Jinfeng felt a subtle feeling trembling in his heart, he looked up into the distance, and felt as if his body was suddenly full of strength.
Su Junsheng looked at Su Jinfeng, and a successful smile flashed in his eyes.
What is a mere 500 yuan, as long as Qingwan can marry Su Jinfeng and become the second young grandmother of this Jing'an Su Mansion, then what money does he have to worry about!
The fifth master is pressing so tightly, he has to find a way back for himself, seeing that this Su Jinfeng seems to like Qingwan very much, it really can't be. When the time comes, they will deceive Qingwan first, and then come back to get the ransom, anyway, what they want is money.
Su Junsheng thought so, and the smile on his face couldn't help but become more obvious.
