Xi Jingchen sat in front of his desk, holding a book in his hands as he read. Seeing his serious look, Chu Yue couldn"t help but sigh. Logically speaking …
At his age, if he met a beautiful girl, he wouldn"t be so calm.
"Mom!" Xi Jingchen turned the chair and called out to Chu Yue.
Chu Yue sat on the sofa opposite him, looked at him and asked, "How is Miss Duan?"
Xi Jingchen laughed, "You"ve chosen one, of course it"s not bad.""How did I choose this? I"m giving you a chance to choose. Mom doesn"t have any intention of forcing you to choose." Chu Yue expressed his att.i.tude.
Xi Jingchen pursed his lips and thought for a few seconds, "Mom, if you want me to choose, give me another year, okay?"
Chu Yue was slightly surprised. What was a son doing in a year"s time? If he liked Duan Shumin and wanted to get to know him better, a few months would be enough.
"Do you like Miss Duan?" Chu Yue asked directly.
Xi Jingchen"s cultivation did not allow him to directly judge a person"s good or bad, he smiled, "She is very good, but I do not have any intentions of understanding her further."
Chu Yue understood his son the most, upon hearing this, she understood that if her son didn"t call Duan Shumin, she could understand why. She would definitely not be able to merge her two hearts together, and might need more time.
"Alright, I won"t interfere. If you see her in the future, you can try to get to know her." Chu Yue also gave his son a chance to choose freely. However, she was very satisfied with Duan Shumin. If Duan Shumin were to meet him at his son"s work place in the future, maybe they would be able to gradually cultivate a relations.h.i.+p. She was not in a hurry, she still hoped that her son would be able to find a partner for her.
The companion of his soul.
It was because she knew how blissful it was to find such a lover, just like how she and Xi FengHan had been together their entire lives. She felt that her marriage to him had not been in vain.
"Mom, don"t worry. I"m not bad either." Xi Jingchen comforted her.
Chu Yue snorted with laughter, "You"re my son, of course you"re not bad." Xi Jingchen also laughed. He did not mention that he had met Duan Shu Xian, because right now, he and Duan Shu Xian had not developed a relations.h.i.+p. If his mother knew about this, she would definitely understand her, even if his mother was very careful in understanding her …
Everything, but he didn"t want Duan Shu Xian"s life to be disturbed, and he had no right to do so.
He had asked his mother for a year, a year in which he could relax and boldly pursue the feelings he wanted.
"Mom, if the girl I meet one day wasn"t a girl with a good family background, would you and Dad stop us from dating?" Xi Jingchen asked his mother seriously. Chu Yue"s expression slightly froze as she seriously thought, "Mom and dad won"t stop you, but you have to let them know what you"re going to do in the future. Whether the life she"s going to face in the future is what she wants, if she dares to face you in the future …"
Tsk, no matter what kind of setbacks you have experienced, you will still unhesitatingly stay by your side. Then, you can feel at ease to bring me home. We have no objections. "
Hearing his mother"s words, Xi Jingchen"s heart was filled with worry. Indeed, in the royal family, the emotional pressure he wanted was not from home, but from his ident.i.ty.
He could not be like ordinary people. For the rest of his life, he had to share his mission. He had to face the future of this country bravely and be in the same danger as himself.
The higher the status, the greater the danger.
Chu Yue understood her son in the end, yet he still had such a question. Could it be that there was already someone he liked in his heart? And the other party was an ordinary person?
"Jing Chen, mother has a few words to say first. If the other party only wants wealth and power, I won"t allow you to bring them home." Chu Yue warned once, gently, indicating that his eyes should still s.h.i.+ne, and not choose the other half.
Xi Jingchen stood up and sat beside her, he extended his arm and embraced her, then smiled and replied, "I understand, Mom."
Chu Yue turned her head to look at his son"s extraordinary face. She really hoped that the heavens would treat her son well and give him a good fate.
When Chu Yue left the study, he saw that it was already three in the afternoon.
His mood suddenly became a little dry. At this time, Duan Shu Xian should have invited Jiang Ning to the cinema.
Maybe he could have dinner together tonight. He felt a little jealous thinking about how Jiang Ning and her would be paired under the romantic lights.
However, Duan Shu Xian did not eat with Jiang Ning. When the two of them came out of the movie together, Jiang Ning really wanted to treat her to a meal, but she tactfully rejected his offer.
When Duan Shu Xian returned home at night to look through the information, she felt that she really couldn"t be this lazy anymore. She was going to take next year"s exams, and she wanted to find her own life goal; even if she was really ordinary, she couldn"t be ordinary. Duan Deming had been paying attention to her movements and thoughts recently, and he was worried that Duan Shu Xian would not forget Xi Jingchen. He didn"t want his future daughter to be part of it,
At the heart of power, while enjoying the benefits of power, he was also under unbearable pressure.
Moreover, Xi Jingchen had a blind date with his niece, so he definitely could not let his daughter partic.i.p.ate in it. Otherwise, it would be hard for him to explain it to his elder brother.
Duan Shu Xian came out to pour some water. When she saw her father watching TV on the sofa, she casually said, "Dad, next time you have information on this, can you collect more for me?"
Duan Deming regained his senses. Hearing his daughter"s words, he smiled in satisfaction, "Okay, don"t be too tired too."
"En!" Duan Shu Xian poured a cup of water and went back inside. Duan Shu Xian was tired of reading. At around 11 o"clock, she closed the file and held the cup of water as she looked out the window at the darkening night. Her mind was emptied and her face was flushed.
As long as he looked at her, he could fill her eyes.
Duan Shu Xian"s eyes became watery. She now understood that in this world, there was truly a type of person who didn"t even dare to think about it, much less love!
He could only secretly think about it in the middle of the night.
On Monday, Duan Shu Xian busied herself again. Every Monday was the time when the new books were purchased from the library. Many new ones would be delivered, and a few more bookshelves would be added. There were a lot of books that needed to be adjusted.
Duan Shu Xian pushed the books that she had collected, preparing to place them on another bookshelf. She was smoking a book, and just as she pulled it away, a shadow appeared in front of her, as if someone was reading a book on the bookshelf in front of her.
Duan Shu Xian was startled. A student came so early?
"Do you need help?" A deep sound came from the empty library.
Duan Shu Xian"s heart skipped a beat. Was it an illusion? He actually heard Xi Jingchen"s voice, but today was Monday! Which of her strings had been strung wrongly?
Just when Duan Shu Xian thought so, a handsome man walked out from a nearby bookshelf. The book in Duan Shu Xian"s hands fell to the floor with a thud. She looked at the man walking towards her with a stupefied expression.
Xi Jingchen could not help but laugh as he squatted down. He picked up the book on the ground, patted on its dust and handed it to her, "Did it scare you?"
Duan Shu Xian quickly took the book. She shook her head and smiled, "No!" Today is Monday, why are you here? "
After saying that, she turned around and pretended to put the book away, but just as she was about to push, she realized that this was clearly the sound of a door being pulled out from behind her.
"I came to borrow a book." The man"s excuses were plentiful.
Duan Shu Xian was stunned as she glanced at him.
He came here specially to borrow books? Could it be that his Pavilion Lord Manor"s collection of bookshelves was not as numerous as this place? Did he want any books?
"Is the movie good?" Xi Jingchen asked curiously.
Duan Shu Xian was stunned. Was he referring to that movie on Sat.u.r.day? She smiled. "Very nice."
"I want to see it too, but unfortunately no one invited me." Xi Jingchen stared at her with a grumbling expression. He had clearly wanted to go over and see that day, but she had rejected her offer.
Duan Shu Xian was stunned. Did she not know the ident.i.ty of this man? "He still wants to go to the movies?" This movie will soon be available on the computer. Wait a little longer! " Duan Shu Xian comforted him.
