Chapter 83: A Bolt from the Clear
It was night, Zhao Chen was just about to go back to the room to cultivate, Zhao Qing asked him to stay in the hall for a while, that solemn look, it seemed that there was something extremely important to announce, as for why he was asked to wait first, Zhao Chen couldn't understand the reason.
After a long time, Zhao Qing returned to the hall, and there were two other people who came with him, namely Xiao Ding and Xiao Yi.
Zhao Chen hurriedly greeted him: "The kid has seen Uncle Xiao, and I have seen Miss Xiao!" ”
Xiao Ding already knew Zhao Chen's identity as a sixth-level forger, but he didn't look restrained at the moment, his expression was as usual, and he said with a smile as before: "Virtuous nephews don't have to be formal. ”
And Xiao Yi was standing behind Xiao Ding with her head down, her face was red and bright, as if she was about to drip water, but the style of this moment made Zhao Chen stunned, although she was young, but at this time she seemed a little mature, and the shy and lovely appearance couldn't help but evoke the deep love in Zhao Chen's fusion memory, but Zhao Chen's self-control was extremely good, but he lost his mind for a moment, and then came back to his senses, if he didn't pay careful attention, he might not really see the slightest difference.
However, Xiao Ding and Zhao Qing have been observing Zhao Chen's reaction since they entered the door, and the result made the two of them very satisfied, this kid is not without feelings!
"Dad, is what you want to say has something to do with Uncle Xiao?" Zhao Chen asked suspiciously.
Zhao Qing and Xiao Ding glanced at each other, then nodded, with a smile on their faces, and a slightly festive tone: "Yes, this matter has something to do with you and Brother Xiao." Of course, it also has something to do with Xiao Yi. ”
Zhao Chen didn't understand, he didn't seem to have anything to do with Xiao Ding, right?
Seeing that Zhao Chen's expression did not seem to be fake, Zhao Qing smiled bitterly in his heart, this kid is good at everything, but he is too slow to show his feelings, maybe God gave him super high wisdom and outstanding ability, but deprived him of emotional wisdom, right?
If he knew Zhao Chen's experience in his previous life, then he would not have made such an emotion.
In his previous life, Zhao Chen took over the Zhao family, which was already depressed at that time, when he was just an adult, and sat on the position of the head of the family, in order to revive the Zhao family, he made countless efforts, in reality, in the game, where there is an opportunity, there is his figure, he is more important than the legendary Zhuge Liang, he can be regarded as a person who really works hard for the family.
It's because he regards the family too important, and everything is thinking about how to revive the family, so although he is only in his twenties and famous all over the world, he has no emotional experience, and women are completely strange animals to him, except for the instinctive reaction of the male surname, he can be said to be completely ignorant of feelings.
As for Zhao Chen after the crossing, this body is only 16 years old after all, when he just crossed over, this body has just turned 15 years old, how many feelings does such a little hairy child know?
After all, the Dream Continent is not the earth, maybe on the earth, 16-year-old teenagers have begun to work hard for their livelihoods, but in this Dream Continent, without the edification of various items such as romance films, they naturally will not know so much about feelings, at most they are ignorant, and there is a taste of indescribable incomprehension, which Zhao Chen himself can't explain.
Although Xiao Yi is also younger, she is also eighteen years old, and at the same time, she has experienced a lot more things in Jianye City than Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen is just a cowardly introverted teenager who does not want to socialize with others, while Xiao Yi's surname is more lively, Xiao Yi knows this aspect better than Zhao Chen.
The little girl is now lowering her head, not daring to look at Zhao Chen, her heart is like a deer, and her infinitely shy appearance is intoxicating.
Seeing the different expressions of his son and Xiao Yi, Zhao Qing felt depressed in his heart! Why doesn't his son open up in terms of feelings?
He had to make his words clear: "Chen'er, that's the case, my father decided to marry your Uncle Xiao's family." ”
"Oh." Zhao Chen nodded subconsciously at first, but then felt that something was wrong, "Joint marriage? What do you mean? ”
Zhao Qing said with a smile: "Joint marriage is naturally to let you and Xiao Yi be together, don't you understand such a simple truth?" ”
A bolt from the blue!
This news is no less than a thunderbolt from the blue for Zhao Chen, once, he couldn't remember when it was in his previous life, he only remembered that he had seen a lot of stories about family marriages, but most of them ended in tragedy, the two obviously had no feelings, why did the family have to marry for their own interests?
He didn't know how he felt about Xiao Yi, he only knew that one of the things he rejected the most was marriage.
In his subconscious, joint marriage is a bad thing, only those families who only look at interests and don't talk about feelings can do it, he never thought that this would happen to his family, let alone happen to himself.
"Could it be, has Dad changed?"
Zhao Chen looked at Zhao Qing's clear and slightly caring gaze, and immediately denied this speculation, but why did his father make such a decision, didn't he know that this was an unfair thing to himself and Xiao Yi?
Seeing Zhao Chen's very ugly, even a little iron-blue face, Zhao Qing and Xiao Ding were stunned.
Could it be that the marriage really had such a big impact on him? Does he really hate marriage so much? Or does he hate Xiao Yi at all? But if he hates Xiao Yi, then what about the imperceptible love that flashed in his eyes before?
Xiao Yi had already mustered up the courage to look at Zhao Chen when Zhao Qing just asked, but fortunately, she found that Zhao Chen had withdrawn his gaze and did not look at her again, which made her breathe a sigh of relief At the same time, she also had a faint sense of loss, she didn't know why she felt like this, but she was sure that she couldn't talk about love for Zhao Chen for the time being.
And when Zhao Chen's expression began to change sharply, Xiao Yi's heart also hung up, and when she saw Zhao Chen's final face become extremely ugly, she only felt that her breathing was so uncomfortable, as if her heart was suddenly pressed by something, and she was about to breathe.
At this time, Zhao Chen said a little indifferently: "I'm sorry, Dad, I don't think I am suitable for Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao is the eldest lady of the Xiao family, she has a golden body, she is as beautiful as a flower, and her cultivation qualifications are extremely good, and I am just a kid who can't cultivate Xuan, how can I dare to marry Miss Xiao as my wife?" ”
Xiao Yi's face became extremely pale, it turned out that he was still angry with himself!
That's right, sixteen years of ignorance, sixteen years of disdain, and today this consequence can be regarded as God's retribution for himself, right?
"Nonsense!" Zhao Qing's face changed, and there was a little anger in his voice, "Do you want to say that Xiao Yi is not worthy of you?" Hmph, I think you're not worthy of Xiao Yi! ”
No matter what Zhao Qing said, Zhao Chen just didn't listen, in short, he was very resolute in his position on this matter.
"Uncle Zhao, don't say it anymore, hehe." Xiao Yi's body seemed to be a little shaky, and his face was extremely pale, so pale that Zhao Chen felt a little distressed when he saw it, but he still didn't react.
She squeezed out an ugly smile: "It's me, it's me who doesn't deserve him, he's not wrong." ”
But she was sad for herself in her heart: "Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi, aren't you against politics/politics marriage?" Why? Why does your heart hurt so much when you hear him say no? Did you feel all the deception before? Are you really in love with him? ”
Oh, yes!
Such an excellent teenager, who doesn't love a girl?
If you really want to say that she doesn't have a good impression of Zhao Chen, I'm afraid that this is a lie.
On the contrary, when Zhao Chen heard Xiao Yi's faint voice with a hint of bitterness and pain, he felt inexplicably irritable, as if there was a consciousness in his heart, as if seeing the woman's sadness, he would be sad, full of unbearable and distressed.
Zhao Qing looked at Zhao Chen's reaction, he didn't speak for a long time, the hall was silent for a while, and after a long time, Zhao Qing suddenly thought of something, and said, "Chen'er, I think, you should have misunderstood what I meant." ”
Zhao Chen was puzzled: "Isn't this what Dad meant?" ”
"It's not that it doesn't mean that." Zhao Qing was a little confused by what he said, and simply made it clear that "I and your Uncle Xiao don't mean to let you and Xiao Yi get married immediately, but to let you get along for a while, and finally be together, of course, it's best, if you can't, we won't force it." ”
He smiled and asked, "Think about it, when did Dad force you?" ”
"And," he sighed, "wasn't your mother forced by your grandfather to marry that hater?" The tragedy of sixteen years ago, I, Zhao Qing, have personally experienced it, this is sixteen years of pain, undoubtedly because of the marriage that was not recognized by the parties, my father has endured sixteen years of pain, how can he do such a thing regardless of your feelings? And, to put it to the point, do you think it is necessary for the Zhao family to have a political/political marriage with the Xiao family? ”
I have to say that Zhao Qing's words were extremely sincere, and his sentences were emotional, and his voice aroused Zhao Chen's feelings, and Zhao Chen only understood Zhao Qing's intentions at this time, and looked at Xiao Yi, who was pale and helpless on the other side, he sighed and said, "Dad, it's up to you this time!" ”
However, Xiao Yi said a little sadly: "Are you pitying me?" ”
Zhao Chen felt unspeakably distressed in his heart, but he couldn't completely let go of Xiao Yi's more than fifteen years of ignoring himself, although he was broad-minded, but on the way to ignorant feelings, he was a toddler and climbing.
It's just that at this time, the pity in his heart was too much resentment, and the tone of his voice became extremely soft: "Miss Xiao, I'm not pitying anyone, and I can't tell you how I feel about you, in short, it's complicated, but the reason why I rejected Uncle Xiao and my father's decision just now was because of my opposition to the marriage itself, and I didn't mean to target you." ”
"Really?" Xiao Yi's face looked much better, the reason Zhao Chen said was actually what she thought in her heart, but she didn't object to Xiao Ding, this idea was buried in her heart.
