Chapter 17 This matter needs to be handled with care
es Restaurant"City Brother, I heard you got divorced" Si Kong Liu Yi leaned her elbow on the table, her slender jade hand with ten fingers crossed, lightly resting her chin, her delicately made-up eye...Chapter 17: This Matters Needs Careful Handling.
An Xiaotui sighed and weakly replied, "No."
"That flower..." An mother frowned.
I had dinner with a student. He had told me before that he liked me, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to make things clear and give him a bit of a talking-to, to get him to give up on his feelings. However, the student was too stubborn...
An Xiaotu lightly recounted the events, then walked to the sofa and slumped down.
Thinking about what happened with Tang Xiu, she felt a headache coming on.
He didn't even have all his teeth, yet he wanted to gnaw on her old bones.
"How come you didn't tell him you were already married" An mother chided, slapping her arm.
“I told him several times, but the student wouldn’t believe me. He even said that since he’s getting married, he could get divorced… I wanted to talk to his parents about it, but his parents had passed away and his guardian didn't care. I didn't dare to be too harsh for fear of upsetting him…” An Xiaotu couldn't help but feel wronged.
Of course, she knew that being a role model was important and that teacher-student relationships were strictly forbidden.
Growing up in that kind of family situation, Tang Xiu was prone to psychological issues, so she had to be more careful and ensure that this student wouldn't be negatively affected.
When An's mother heard this, she immediately frowned. Her daughter was still in her internship period. If this matter wasn't handled well, she might not be able to get a permanent position, and she could even lose her job.
"You should try to talk to the student again when you have a chance. If that doesn't work, you should report it to your superiors. The school should then find a guidance counselor to talk to him; remember not to make a big deal out of this, lest public opinion pressure the student later."
"Well, Mom I understand." An Xiaotu nodded.
I also think that if I can't handle it myself, I can only report it upwards.
"Speaking of which, Mother thought for a moment and changed the subject. "By the way, you're meeting Yu Cheng's parents on Sunday. Mom will take you shopping tomorrow Saturday to buy some appropriate clothes and gifts for the occasion."
"Well, okay," An Xiaotu replied absentmindedly, suddenly feeling a surge of anxiety.
Because it was a flash marriage, she didn't know anything about his family situation at all...
After chatting with her mother for a while longer, she excused herself and went back to her room.
Thinking about meeting his parents on Sunday, she pondered for a while before mustering the courage to call Tang Yucheng.
On the phone, Tang Yucheng’s tall and slender figure stood straight by the window. He had one hand in his trouser pocket, dressed in military uniform, which made him look even more imposing and handsome. His cold face was as exquisitely carved as if sculpted by a divine hand.
"What's up" A cold and sexy voice came through the phone, sounding particularly deep and magnetic.
"That... you're going to my place on Sunday, right Remember" An Xiaotu trembled slightly at his cold tone and asked softly.
"Mmm. What did you want to say..." As if sensing her hesitation, he softly opened his thin lips and softened his tone, following along with her words.
"Well, I'd like you to tell me about your family situation. Otherwise, I won't know anything later."
"My grandparents, parents are still alive, my elder brother and sister-in-law have passed away, leaving behind one child. My younger brother manages the family company; if you want to know the specifics, just ask."
An Xiaotu was silent. His family runs a company, and he had been quite generous with his spending before... It seems like he comes from a good family, but we'll have to wait until Sunday to know for sure.
"Hmm...are your family members difficult to get along with"
"My family isn't concerned about finding a suitable match. They like you very much and won't give you a hard time." He spoke calmly to ease her worries.
A little rabbit, An Xiaotu, still had some things she wanted to ask. As the words reached her lips, she faintly heard a "Report" from the other end of the phone. She swallowed her words and said, "I won't bother you then, I'll talk to you later."
"Well, I'll pick you up at 10:00 AM on Sunday."
After Tang Yucheng finished speaking, he put down the line cleanly and neatly, without any dragging or hesitation.
……
On Saturday, crowds thronged the large shopping mall. On a prominent giant electronic screen played an advertisement for Kr'C International Jewelry.
Di Ming International Shopping Mall is the premier luxury shopping destination in Bei Si City, a paradise for the wealthy, a haven for socialites and nobles, and a gathering place for internationally renowned brands.
Clothing boutiques, jewelry stores, cafes, spas, high-end restaurants, bars, fitness centers, and more... Dining, entertainment, shopping all in one.
If you have money, you can stay inside forever. That's its charm and temptation.
An Xiaotui walked into the mall, holding onto An Mu's arm. "Mom, we actually don't need to come to such a high-end mall to buy clothes."
"When you first meet your in-laws, your clothes and appearance naturally need to be appropriate, able to hold the scene, and not look shabby." Mother An patted her hand and comforted with a smile:
"Don't worry, Mom knows what she's doing. Besides, these years your father and I have saved you a rather substantial dowry."
An Xiaotu's eyes welled up with tears. Their family wasn't wealthy, but her parents had always loved and cared for her deeply. They worked hard to give her the best in everything, from food and clothing to experiences.
"Mom, I suddenly don't want to get married. Can I just stay with you and Dad for the rest of my life" she said with a reluctant smile.
If it weren't for the unexpected accident that night, she wouldn't have gotten married so quickly...
"You, when did you learn to say one thing and mean another You took the certificate and now you say you don't want to get married." An mother fondly tapped her forehead and chuckled.
The daughter's parents are overjoyed that she has found such a good husband.
An Xiaotu stuck out her tongue playfully, but in her heart she was thinking, "Oh, baby, this is hard."
In the distance, inside the Xiangming Tea Pavilion.
A man over sixty, with white hair and wearing a 中山裝, sat upright on the sofa.
Years of experience in the business world have honed his iron-willed arrogance. Even now, just sitting there, the cold and powerful aura emanating from him is undeniable.
Those eyes, dulled and sharp by the passage of time, peered through the glass at the laughing figures of a mother and daughter within the mall. The younger woman, in particular, seemed light and graceful.
The hand gripping the cane tightened, his gaze flitting over a complex mixture of...
The middle-aged man standing beside the elderly man followed the old man's gaze. When he saw the beautiful woman's face, the memories that had been settled for over two decades suddenly surged up in his mind like a spring, and he was startled.
Coming to my senses, as if I knew the old man's thoughts, I softly said:
"Grandpa, should we go say hello"
"No." The old man seemed to be rather angry, letting out a snort. His knuckles bulged as he gripped his cane tightly.
He never expected Beis City to be so small, and to run into...
But as he watched the mother and daughter walk into a high-end clothing store, he snorted, "Go tell them they get a discount on their purchases, I'll cover the difference."
"Yes, old man."
The middle-aged man bowed respectfully and finished his response, then turned and left the Xiangming Tea Pavilion.ell on Xiao Nuan.Xiao An put down the spoon in his hand and jumped off the chair, running to Xiao Nuan's face."An Nian gege," Xiao Nuan Nuan let go of the hand Tang Mo Qing was holding her with, ran t...
