BXBX NOVEL Chapter 88 - 88
Chen Xiaoqian looked at Yu Minglang expressionlessly. If anyone ever told her again that Yu Minglang was a man of few words, she’d wring their necks.
Who was this man who parried with her mother deftly and set traps for Jia Xiufang from time to time? Was he really the man who took forever to confess his feelings to her and only knew how to give carnations?
Could it be that Yu Minglang had a twin brother?
Otherwise, how could one person display such diverse characteristics?
“Minglang, who else is in your family?” Jia Xiufang asked, having been led a merry dance by Yu Minglang. She had even promoted him from being referred to as ‘boss’ to ‘Minglang’.
Yu Minglang sat upright and said solemnly, “My grandparents are still alive and currently living in my hometown. My parents live in this city. My father is a businessman but has retired due to health reasons. The company is temporarily managed by my brother and me. We both manage different businesses under two different groups, without any interference with each other. My mother works in a hospital, I have two older brothers and a twin sister.”
“Ah…so many people…” Jia Xiufang was surprised by this, realizing that this was a large family.
Would the interpersonal relationships be complicated? Like Chen Lin’s brothers, none of them were easy to deal with?
“Aunt, don’t worry. My parents are really nice. They rarely interfere with any of our issues. We brothers arc all busy with our own things, scattered across the world but gather together during the New Year. They are all good people; Xiao Qian won’t be treated unfairly.”
As Yu Minglang was answering, he also made an assessment in his heart.
His brothers wouldn’t meddle in women’s affairs, his eldest sister-in-law was older and would give in to Xiaoqian, his sister was quite naive and wouldn’t hassle Xiao Qian, his second sister-in-law was quite difficult to describe but she wasn’t very smart, so he didn’t worry about Xiaoqian being taken advantage of at all.
“So…is your family involved in business?” Jia Xiufang’s understanding of businessmen is that they were rich, most of her impressions came from TV series about wealthy family disputes.
“Only my eldest brother and I are in business. My second brother and sister have their own things to do. My father has military experience from his early years, so he also taught us to be righteous. Our family places great emphasis on unity and familial harmony, and aside from that, we don’t differ much from any ordinary family.”
Listening to Yu Minglang nonsense’s, Xiaoqian scoffed several times in her heart.
Was his family ordinary?
Average parents? Yu Minglang didn’t mention that his father occasionally appeared in the news as a prominent figure, he just replaced it with ‘an ordinary family’, so humble.
“So, is your family rich?” Chen Zilong was only concerned about this question.
Xiaoqian glared at him, picked up a piece of food, and stuffed it into his mouth, “You sure talk a lot!”.
“Our family is slightly more well-off. Before, I was working at an old unit and had not yet taken over the family business. I just got back and have a lot of things to figure out. I am slightly weaker than my elder brother, but I am capable enough to provide for a family.” Yu Minglang humbly replied.
However, Jia Xiufang picked up on it, this family was not ordinary.
Yu Minglang was low-key, driving an affordable Cherokee. That was purely a personal preference.
Jia Xiufang didn’t know how much the designer clothes on Yu Minglang were worth, nor did she understand that his tie pin was made of platinum and his cufflinks were of diamond. But she guessed that he must have some connections.
Was her family’s condition a bit inferior for such a suitor?
“Aunt, my parents already know about Xiaoqian and they are very happy. They just hope that when we are more stable, I can bring Xiaoqian back home—————————————————————– ”
“When did this happen!” Xiaoqian was almost choked on her braised lion’s head meatballs.
“Last time, the doctor you met when you went for a checkup was my eldest sister-in-law. She really likes you. As soon as she went home, she told my parents about you.” Yu Minglang patted Xiaoqian’s back and handed her a glass of water.
Xiaoqian: °A°|||…
So, did she voluntarily approach them last time and collide with their gun muzzles? That’s not right, how could his eldest sister-in-law recognize her if she’s never seen her?
“Ah, that doctor is your oldest sister-in-law? She’s indeed a nice person.” Jia Xiufang remembered the exceedingly nice female doctor.
“Yes, my eldest sister-in-law wanted to talk directly with you, but she was afraid you would feel it was too sudden, so she didn’t mention it. Next time you go for a checkup, just look for her. She will definitely take good care of you.” Listening to this, Xiaoqian suddenly had a feeling that the entire city was full of Yu Minglang’s family.
Wherever she went, she would meet his relatives and friends?
Buying a home appliance, he ran into his childhood friend,
Going to the hospital, she met his eldest sister-in-law…
Jia Xiufang wasn’t experienced in these matters. Yu Minglang seemed gentle, but every sentence he said could strangle her well-thought-out opposition.
Xiaoqian felt scornful of Yu Minglang’s sometimes strong but mostly weak EQ, feeling that at this moment, his combat power was off the charts.
While Yu Minglang continued to serve food for Xiaoqian, he also chatted about ordinary things with Jia Xiufang, such as how the business in the shop was doing or if she was tired from work.
Jia Xiufang was drawn into his words again. They had already eaten more than half of the food and she hadn’t gotten to the proper point yet.
With the meal coming to an end, Yu Minglang switched the conversation, “Aunt, Xiaoqian is still young and needs to study.”
Jia Xiufang quickly nodded in agreement, exactly, that was what she had in mind!
Even Xiaoqian stopped picking up food and looked at Yu Minglang. She saw him say calmly,
“That’s why I will be tutoring her to ensure she does not miss out on her academics. My business is just starting, and with her in school, we can support each other and make progress together.”
“Cough, cough!” Xiaoqian choked again.
In the future, while eating, she really shouldn’t listen to him talk.
He was talking too much rubbish!
He even mentioned progressing together, what did he think he was doing?
Was he presenting a work summary report?
When Xiaoqian choked, Yu Minglang patted her back, handed her a drink, and also imparted a caring lesson.
“Don’t eat so quickly.”
Lord! Wasn’t it because he kept talking that she choked? Xiaoqian glared at him, but Yu Minglang wasn’t angry. He curved his eyes and looked at Xiaoqian, thinking that she was really beautiful.
Jia Xiufang felt that her last reason for objecting had just been swallowed by Yu Minglang.
“That’s…my daughter’s…her grades are really good…” Actually, she doesn’t need your tutoring, right? And wouldn’t dating interfere with her studies?
“I’m also pretty good. With me here, Xiaoqian will definitely get a full scholarship.” Yu Minglang was brimming with smiles.
Couldn’t she get it without his help? “Stop acting cool, move aside, you’re blocking me from getting food!” Xiaoqian pushed him and Yu Minglang turned the dishes she wanted to cat towards her.
Seeing her daughter start talking, Jia Xiufang knew that her objections seemed to be useless, but she was still somewhat worried.
Would this boss really not bully her daughter?
“Yu Minglang, are you an idiot? You turned it around and then turned it back! Turn it back again! Do you even know how to pick up food or you just have big eyes for decoration?”
Listening to Xiaoqian’s harsh words, Jia Xiufang inhaled sharply. But upon seeing Yu Minglang’s not-at-all angry, but rather happy, she felt slightly at ease.
Yu Minglang listened to Xiaoqian scolding him. Not only was he not angry, he was secretly delighted.
Sure enough, the girl he had chosen was great. She was helping him score points.
Yes, this girl was really worth treating well for a lifetime. Just for the way she ate this meal, it was decided..
