The previous quarrel in the Xing family undoubtedly ended in Xing’s father’s defeat.
The two people, who were over a hundred years old together, had a cold war for two days. It should be said that Xing’s mother unilaterally ignored Xing’s father.
Xing’s father could not stand it anymore. He told Xing Yan in private and asked him to find some rose seeds. And with a stinky face, he specifically told him that he wanted flower seeds from the Shen family.
When gods fight, mortals suffer. Although Xing Yan is very beautiful outside, he is at the bottom of the food chain when he arrives at home.
How could he dare to disobey the Emperor’s orders? Today, he deliberately ended his official duties early and came to visit the Shen family again.
As soon as he followed the nanny into the Shen family courtyard, he saw a woman wearing a straw hat in the corner, standing on tiptoe, and trying to reach the flowers on the branches, but she always missed it and could not reach it.
Although it is May, when the weather is good, the temperature is not low. The sun is shining brightly. The arm that is trying to stretch out seems to be shining white under the sun.
Even though it was just a figure from behind, Xing Yan recognized that it was Miss Shen, whom he had seen before. Thinking of the cold little beauty, he turned around and walked over.
The pomegranate tree was a bit high for the little beauty, but it was easy for him. After picking the flowers, he smiled politely when he saw the person turning around, “Miss Shen, we meet again.” He felt quite confident in his charm.
The face under the wide-brimmed straw hat is very small. Up close, it looks even more beautiful than at first glance. She has slender black eyebrows, cold eyes, and pale cheeks, which have been exposed to the sun. The color was crimson, which somewhat diluted the coldness around her.
Jiang Rui glanced at the pomegranate flower that he put into the basket. She nodded slightly, “Thank you. Who are you?”
A beauty is a beauty, even her voice is so nice, Xing Yan thought in his heart. He said: “It’s just a matter of raising a hand. My surname is Xing. I visited Old Master Shen a few days ago. I wonder if Miss Shen still remembers it?”
Jiang Rui nodded again, “Of course, I remember. It turned out to be Mr. Xing.”
“I’m here to disturb you again today.” Xing Yan said with a smile.
Jiang Rui smiled politely and said, “Grandpa is in the room. Mr. Xing, please help yourself.”
Xing Yan did not say much. He said ‘See you later’ and followed Nanny Xu into the house. When he came out, there was no sign of the beauty in the garden. He looked around and shook his head regretfully.
Assistant Xiao Lin saw this and stopped talking after getting in the car.
Xing Yan was looking at the flower seeds in his hand. He caught a glimpse of his movements from the corner of his eye and said, “If you have anything to say, tell me. Did you have a date with your girlfriend tonight and want to get off work early?”
Xiao Lin blushed, “Mr. Xing, I’m still single.”
“If you’re single, you’re single. Why are you blushing at me?” Xing Yan said with disdain.
“…” Xiao Lin turned around silently.
After a while, Xing Yan put down the flower seeds and said, “Tell me, is there any instruction from the old father and the old mother?”
Assistant Xiao Lin was recruited into the company by Xing’s father and was arranged by Xing Yan’s side at the instruction of Xing’s mother. In addition to being an assistant, he also had an important responsibility – serving as a microphone for the old father and the old mother, using every possible opportunity to urge him to find a girlfriend.
The two people set up their spies in a fair and upright manner, but Xing Yan did not lose his temper on this. Anyway, the two elders were not supervising, but they were just letting people chatter in his ears. He just let it enter his left ear and out of his right ear, pretending that he did not hear anything. What’s more, apart from being wordy, Xiao Lin’s working ability is indeed very strong.
Xiao Lin pondered his tone and said hesitatingly: “Just now, you can actually take the opportunity to exchange contact information with Miss Shen.”
“What kind of contact information was exchanged for no reason?” Xing Yan raised his eyebrows.
“Uh… Isn’t Mr. Xing having a good impression of Miss Shen?”
Xiao Lin is sometimes in a dilemma. Logically speaking, as a qualified subordinate, he should not interfere with his boss’s private life, but he also has another heavy responsibility on his shoulders. With the ardent expectations of his boss’s parents, plus he was receiving this high salary, he could only bite the bullet and give a few words of supervision every day as a routine.
Xing Yan curiously said: “Which eye do you see that I am interested in little beauty?”
It seems… Both eyes saw it.
Xiao Lin whispered in his heart, one mouthful of a little beauty. The second time he saw her, he helped the person pick up the flowers and talked to her. It was a pity that he did not see her when he left. Isn’t this a sign of goodwill?
Although he did not say it, Xing Yan could understand from his expression. He could not help but pat him on his shoulder, “Okay, Assistant Xiao Lin, I originally thought that you were a gentleman and quite reserved, but I didn’t expect your ideas to be more unrestrained than mine. Aren’t you the kind of person who is the first to meet a girl and think about which kindergarten your child will go to in the future?”
“No, nothing…” Xiao Lin’s face was red, and he stammered.
Xing Yan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, don’t worry, are we all men? I understand. If you have a girl you like in the future, remember to tell her in advance that I will prepare the wedding red envelope and the child’s full-month red envelope first so that it is not too late.”
Xiao Lin was completely speechless by him.
Xing Yan leisurely shook his legs. He felt that he had never harbored any ill intentions toward Miss Shen, and he did not expect that he would be misunderstood.
Beauty? Everyone has a heart for beauty. When you see a beautiful person, you should naturally look at it more. If it is a cold beauty like the flower of the high mountain, you must look at it more. If it is a cultural and cold beauty like Lingzhi1Lingzhi: Ganoderma lucidum. In ancient China, Ganoderma lucidum was believed to have the effect of immortality and resurrecting the dead and was regarded as a fairy grass. flowers, you must look even more.
He doesn’t take anything seriously for his parents’ arty style. It can be seen that a truly reserved and meaningful cultural person will never despise others for no reason. On the contrary, instead of despising them, they actually respect people.
What’s interesting is that over the years, the people he has met are those who pride themselves on being well-educated, but they often hide their disdain for him as a nouveau riche behind their eyes.
