Chapter 56: Walking Alone on the Street
"I remember you." Yue Jiahe had to look at her and answer.
Guan Yingying smiled knowingly. Remember that I just don't hate me, pretending to be cold because I'm not so reluctant. It's done, I'm sure I'll deal with him. Besides, there are the bondage of the marriage contract! As long as I don't take the initiative to repent of my marriage, he can't do anything.
……
Guan Yingying, who likes to study psychology, is also very good at chatting, and she can listen to it if she has nothing to say. Between greetings, the dishes have already been served.
When the parents on both sides saw that they were talking to each other, they looked at me and I looked at you, and then smiled and raised their wine glasses. "Come, bless the two young men. Our two families are friends in the world, and this time they are even closer. Cheers! Uncle Guan said.
Yue Jiahe held the wine glass, as if holding a heavy piece of lead.
Mrs. Kwan took out a piece of paper with pen letters written on it from her old envelope, unfolded it and spread it on the tablecloth, the edges of the paper were already a little yellowed, and the paper was stained with mold, but the red handprints on it were still very clear.
"In-laws, do you still keep this?" Mrs. Yue asked.
"Make a memento for your child." Mrs. Kwan folded the paper again and put it in an envelope and handed it to Kwan Yingying. "Yingying, it is this paper marriage contract that has contributed to the fate of you and Jiahe today. You were still in your mother's womb! ”
What kind of fate, Yue Jiahe really wanted to take it over and tear it up.
"In-laws, when do you think this liquidity will arrive?" Uncle Guan asked Mr. Yue.
"Coming soon, coming soon, I'll call the finance." Yue Jiahe's father quickly dialed the number, "Hey, Xiao Zhou!" Let's get that investment from Guan's over there! ”
"Thank you so much, thanks to you this time! Mr. Yue. Mr. Guan nodded and said.
"In the future, we will be a family, and helping you is also helping myself. You're welcome! ”
So the Guan family is in such a hurry to "sell" their daughter for this fund? There are really all kinds of people! Rushing to tie up our family. The father never makes a loss-making business, and it seems that they are really optimistic about this prospective daughter-in-law. The money is all in the hands of the Guan family, and this meal should be over, right? Yue Jiahe thought.
"Jiahe! After graduation, you can study abroad with Yingying! Father said.
"But, I, I'm not prepared for this! I'm looking for a job! Yue Jiahe said without confidence.
"You are the legal heir of the Yue clan, haven't you forgotten? I've been letting you go for almost four years, and you taught me how to manage a business when I was in graduate school. Father commanded.
"You don't need to prepare anything! I've submitted all the applications to you. Uncle Guan hurriedly said.
"Jiahe, haven't you already taken the TOEFL? Rest assured, you won't waste your high scores, you can pick the business schools of the top 30 universities in the United States. Mrs. Yue said.
"It's best to let the two children cultivate their feelings first." Mrs. Kwan followed her.
"Brother Jiahe, I want to go to Columbia University the most, do you want to go to Columbia University? Or if you have a school you want to go to, I'll do it all for you. Guan Yingying's emotional intelligence is high, and her thoughts have been expressed, and she seems reasonable, so that people can't make mistakes.
"This girl is really sensible." Mrs. Yue boasted.
"I'm not going abroad!" Yue Jiahe said coldly.
"You dare?" His father glared at him viciously, and he was about to slap him.
"Oh, Uncle Yue, don't force him, you have to give him some time! He might figure it out in two days! If my father suddenly told me that he was going abroad, I wouldn't be prepared! Guan Yingying persuaded in the middle.
"For Yingying's sake, I won't clean you up today! Be nice to your fiancée! Look how sorry she feels for you! Mr. Yue squinted at him and said.
……
Walking out of the hotel, Mr. Yue said to Yue Jiahe: "You accompany Yingying out for a walk!" I haven't seen each other in so many years, and you've all grown up. After saying goodbye, the parents of both sides got into their car and left.
"Brother Jiahe, where are we going?"
"I'm not going anywhere, I still have some business, I can't accompany you, you go first!"
"Oh, if you're not happy, we can not meet for now, and we'll see you at the American university then!" Guan Yingying left with the next sentence. I saw her taking light steps, brushing over Yue Jiahe's shoulders.
Yue Jiahe put his hands in his pockets, alone on the street, always walking alone. The sun shone on his lonely figure, but the winter was still cold, without a trace of warmth. Who am I? Is it the heir of the Yue Group, or Yue Jiahe? Where am I going? Is it to go to Li Meng's side or to the United States?
At this moment, Yue Jiahe just wants to run away from home. If I can solve all the problems and not hurt anyone, I am willing to volunteer in Africa and never come back. However, reality, reality, you can't escape it after all......
Walking in the most prosperous neighborhood of Liancheng, there are very few pedestrians coming and going. Occasionally, two little girls who went shopping together staggered by him, and a few half-sized young men who went to the video game city with them walked in front of him talking and laughing.
Yue Jiahe walked very slowly, and heard two young couples arguing behind him, "It's cold, you let me go for so long!" How long do you have to go? The girl said. Alas! I didn't have to go long! You see, the front is it, hold on for a few more minutes. The boy said. You just don't want to spend money on a car! "Why am I reluctant, didn't I get a taxi?" It's almost there, and you still need to take a car? "You're just slamming the door! I hate you to death! I'm the first to infect you! "Gee, are you that squeamish?" "You! What's wrong with girls being petite? I'll just ask you what's wrong! ”
The boy didn't dare to say anything more, and he raised his hands to cover the girl's ears, but the girl angrily avoided it.
Then the girl ran away, but slowly, and the boy took a few quick steps to chase after her. Walking in front of Yue Jiahe, the boy looked back and smiled at him embarrassedly.
Yue Jiahe suddenly felt a little envious of them. That's nice! When you are young, you can do whatever you want, no matter what the future holds, at least now love really. Even if it's a little noisy, it's a little sweet. I'm not old, but I can't have it anymore. Will I have to hide my feelings in the future and bury them deep in my heart? What about schoolgirls? What am I going to do?
Yue Jiahe didn't dare to think about Li Meng anymore, so he looked at the traffic light intersection in front of him and quickened his pace.
It was getting colder and colder, and he had no goal of going anywhere anyway, so he slipped into the nearest café. After drinking a cup of Americano and eating a piece of chocolate waffle, Yue Jiahe finally felt a little warmer.
