Chapter 293 Engagement

"My dad was originally leaning on the big tree of the second patriarch of the family, but my dad was also worried about your father's power, so my dad in order to continue to get the support of the family, he secretly supported and funded your family again, so that there was a two-way investment double insurance, but he didn't dare to be blatant, because he was afraid that there were still opponents of your father's Aixin Jueluo family forces fled to the field to lurk and remain, and the hostile forces of the Aixin Jueluo family were even more numerous, in case they were to find them to take my dad to make trouble, so I can only secretly pay attention to the situation in your family, and then let me get close to you, if necessary, provide some career opportunities, but not too blatantly。 ”

At this point, Jinna lowered her head and fell silent, Jinna's tone seemed very sincere, but from Jinna's flickering eyes, I realized that Jinna still had reservations.

After a little thought, I thought of the crux of the matter:

"Career opportunities? Hehe, I'm afraid it's not that simple. I sneered, "Let's not talk about the issue of Aixin Jueluo's hostile forces. If it is to provide career opportunities, why do you need to approach me personally and tell me the truth directly? Your father's purpose in letting you approach me is actually nothing more than to cultivate a relationship with me and give me a good impression when I am weak, after all, I have that man's blood in my bones, if that man rises again one day and becomes an emperor, then my status as his biological son will naturally rise, and you, a small family, can rely on my ladder to climb with that man, right?"

"Jinna, your father's ambition is not just to get family resources, I think his purpose is to let you family members return to their ancestors and reintegrate into the big clan, right? ”

Jin Na was slightly stunned, her eyes instantly dimmed a little, she bit her lower lip tightly, and then nodded solemnly:

"Wang Shengsheng, you are too smart...... I...... I already knew I couldn't hide it from you...... You're right, my dad asked me to get close to you...... It's kind of trying to make me ...... What does it mean to be on a good relationship with you...... But, in fact, your dad does seem to care a little about you, and will call every once in a while to inquire about your family. That information...... That's what I told him...... My dad knew that your dad was inquiring about you from time to time, so he thought he still valued you, so I asked me to have a good relationship with you......"

"What a good spy. Hehe. I smiled lightly, but my heart was secretly shocked. Jinna's words made me a little more conjectural about the man's thoughts. So, in the years I was growing up, was in fact that man spying on me? And the agency of the surveillance was Jinna's family, and the watcher was Jinna herself?

"Then why did you come here today to be honest with me? If your dad wanted to maintain his stupid plan, you told me that this secret was not good for his plan, or did your dad abandon his plan to raise you to be my woman when he found out that my relationship with that man wasn't as good as he expected?"

Jinna's delicate body was once again for a while, and a look of shame flashed on her face, then she nodded, shook her head again, and said:

"You're right...... But in fact...... It's not all right...... Actually, my dad gave up on his plan to get me close to you more than half a year ago......"

"Oh, that's kind of weird. Could it be the man's command, or did your dad find a bigger tree to lean onto?"

"I found a new tree...... That tree is your father. Jin Na gritted her teeth and said, "Your father has eliminated all the forces in the clan that want to persecute him, and now he is the head of the family, and the power is monstrous, probably last summer, my father received an order from your father, saying......" Jin Na lowered her head, her voice was extremely difficult, "said that she wanted me to be engaged to an eldest young master of the Xi family in Shanghai, and wanted to establish a relationship between the two families......"

"And your father agreed, didn't he?" I laughed.

Jinna's eyes turned even redder, she bit her lip tightly, and said with tears in her eyes:

"Well, my dad agreed...... Actually, he was very willing to respect my ideas, but ...... This matter is already related to the operation of the big family, and it is no longer something that can be transferred by the will of an individual. If my dad doesn't agree, the family will find another suitable replacement. ”

I suddenly laughed, and my smile stiffened:

"No wonder you said to me that day don't interest me in you. That's what it meant. ”

Thinking of her unclear words when I rescued Jin Na from Gao Xueqin's men and sent her home that day, I finally realized that all the truth had finally come to light.

I continued: "But what happened to Gao Xueqin? You didn't think about the family at that time?"

"Uh-huh......" Jinna's pretty face was covered with haze, and the redness of her eyes was unabated. "At that time, I didn't know what was wrong, as soon as I saw Gao Xueqin, I was dizzy, I felt as if I had changed, and I didn't care about any family affairs or engagements...... At that time, I really had a very ridiculous idea, and even wanted to give up my family and Gao Xueqin...... Elope. Really, I don't know what's wrong with me, what happened at that time...... I can't figure out why I did that to Gao Xueqin right now. ”

I narrowed my eyes, and it seemed that Jinna had never known anything about hexcraft all along. The reason why I was involved with Gao Xueqin was mainly to test whether Jin Na knew something about witchcraft, but judging from her unknowing expression, she shouldn't know.

It seems that after all, a separate family is a separate family, and the mastery of witchcraft cannot be compared with the real family.

Jinna looked at me a little shyly and said:

"Hmm...... Later, there was a poisoning incident in the cafeteria that day, and you counted Gao Xueqin in front of the whole school, and after that, ...... I don't know why, I suddenly have no feelings for Gao Xueqin. Thinking about it later, maybe it was really me who fainted. I'm so stupid, if I go with Gao Xueqin, then everything for my father will be gone, his connections, his status, his borrowed funds from the family...... The existing resources will be taken back, and I don't think about my dad too much. ”

"So you agreed to the engagement?" I said tentatively.

Jinna looked at me steadily, a pair of clear and watery eyes with a hint of mist, and finally, as if she had made some kind of determination, her eyebrows were slightly raised, and she nodded heavily:

"Hmm. I said yes...... I had been hesitant before, but my dad gave me more than half a year to make my own decisions. Until noon two days ago, Wang Shengsheng, your father came to my house in person, sat for an hour, and talked to my father for an hour. I was listening outside the door at that time, and I heard a conversation between my dad and your dad, and he said...... If I am not happy to be engaged to the Xi family's Kuo Shao, he can choose other suitable girls of the same age in the family to get engaged at any time, and there are more than ten girls of the same age in the Aixin Jueluo family, and there are more than 10 marriage tools like me...... At that time, I was shocked, for the sake of my father, I came out at that time and personally expressed my attitude to him, saying that I was willing to marry the noble son of the Xi family in Shanghai...... Your dad...... Or maybe it was my uncle, who took back his words to deprive my dad of his resources and got up to leave. Otherwise...... I'm afraid my dad ......" At this, Jinna's voice choked, and she stretched out her thin, pointy shallot-like fingers to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and forced her composure.
