“Xiao Fan, let me remind you, women are just unreasonable and easily angered. We shouldn’t argue with them or try to coax them. It’s too embarrassing. What kind of man tries to coax a woman? Just let them be angry!”
Chu Fan’s gaze fell on his sycophantic father, who was talking nonstop. He said cryptically, “Oh.”
Chu’s father: “What do you mean?! You don’t believe me?”
Chu’s father’s eyes widened in anger: “Ha, your father would never do such a shameful thing.”
After saying that, he poured Chu Fan a full glass of wine and then drank it down himself.
When Chu’s mother turned her head and saw this scene, her expression instantly changed from gentle and patient to angry and dissatisfied, as if a fire had been lit on her head.
“Chu Yiqiang! Don’t apply your social niceties to your son! If you want to drink, drink it yourself! Don’t you know Xiao Fan can’t drink too much?!”
Chu’s mother shouted a few words.
The volume of her voice left Shutong speechless.
We promised we wouldn’t argue with men…
“I didn’t. I’ll drink by myself. Xiao Fan doesn’t drink.” Chu’s father almost stood up straight, forcing a smile.
“I don’t socialize much, and I don’t like drinking. I’m just having a few drinks now because I’m happy.”
Chu Fan looked at him quietly and chimed in, “Yeah, I don’t drink.”
Chu’s father had seemingly forgotten his righteous words and quickly moved to Chu’s mother’s side.
Shutong hesitated, but when she saw Chu’s father meekly approaching to coax Chu’s mother, she found it amusing.
Chu Fan put down his wine glass, reached out, and pulled Shutong’s chair, moving her to his side.
Shutong was startled and quickly grabbed his arm, giving him a reproachful glare.
“Shall we retreat?”
She gestured toward Chu’s parents.
She actually still wanted to play matchmaker for the two of them.
***
The two of them left the club, and soon after, news of them meeting each other’s parents spread online, but the hashtags were malicious.
Because the person who leaked the photos captured Chu’s father entering and leaving the club with a dark expression the entire time, and Chu’s mother’s expression wasn’t much better.

“This was all foreseeable. Lou Shutong’s background is not good enough for Chu Fan! They were bound to break up sooner or later. It’s a pity that the CP fans are still blindly shipping them!”
“Those in the know understand that the Chu family is very powerful and wealthy in the area. Chu Fan’s father has connections in both the legal and illegal worlds, and his mother also comes from a prominent family. Lou Shutong was adopted by the Lou family, and it seems that her family’s business has run into trouble. The current situation of the Lou family is unclear. Apart from her popularity, what does she have that makes her a match for Chu Fan?”
“Although… Chu Fan’s parents seem so strange, yet so harmonious. I’m starting to wonder why I’m thinking of shipping them!”
“So, is Lou Shutong living the Cinderella story? Whether she can marry into a wealthy family depends on whether she can win Chu Fan’s heart!”
“Tongtong’s conditions aren’t bad either. She has the right to choose. Why must she cling to Chu Fan? Can’t women be independent and self-reliant?”
“I think Lou Shutong is quite independent, and she must have no shortage of suitors. Chu Fan is just a rich kid who inherited the family business, nothing special…”
“Ahhh, is this going to be a sad ending? This is the first time I’ve ever shipped a CP this year. Please, please let them stay together and keep giving us sweet moments! Otherwise, I really will never believe in love again!!”
“Being kicked out is so tragic! Chu Fan’s father looks so fierce…”
“Lou Shutong doesn’t deserve any sympathy! If you want to marry into a wealthy family, you have to bear a certain amount of pressure. It’s normal that she lives in poverty and is looked down upon by the Chu family!”
“How could Lou Shutong be living in poverty? She’s far better off than most people! But she really doesn’t need sympathy. What does her business have to do with you guys? Why are you all pointing fingers like this!”
…
This time, Shutong finally felt like a popular online director, after all, she spent the whole night on the top trending topic, overshadowing a popular young actor’s cheating scandal.
Many netizens were previously focused on the Orange CP, but now that they saw the name ‘Shutong’, most people no longer had a positive view of this CP and thought that they might break up due to family pressure.
Even the CP fans were starting to worry about them.
Those insults and accusations that Shutong was vain and a gold digger had long been suppressed. Shutong never engaged in the practice of controlling public opinion, but the Chu family’s public relations team had definitely taken action.
