Is it because Xu's parents were too protective of their daughter that she was too naive and couldn't see through the true face of the person next to her?
Why is it that Xu Qingxue is so useless that she can’t even see what the real purpose of her husband and his family is?
None of them. If you want to blame it, it's the Xu family's ambition to repay kindness with hatred.
Therefore, in addition to Xu Qingxue's wish to protect her family, she also wanted to take revenge on the Xu family, making all their thoughts and dreams come to nothing.
Su Zhan rubbed his forehead, got up from the bed, and came to the mirror. A plain white but young and beautiful face appeared in front of her.
As its name suggests, Xu Qingxue is as pure and flawless as a snowflake falling in the winter sunset, but it can only suffer the fate of being trampled mercilessly when it falls on the ground.
Su Zhan calmly sat in front of the dressing table, and skillfully took out a lipstick to add a touch of color to this too plain face.
Today happened to be her first meeting with Xu Ziming. Su Zhan knew that Xu's father and Xu's mother would take her out to a banquet later, and Xu Ziming would be waiting for her at that banquet.
At this point, it is impossible to refuse, not to mention that it is not in line with Xu Qingxue's obedient persona.
Therefore, Su Zhan never thought about not going to that banquet.
She also wanted to see what such a white-eyed wolf looked like and whether his heart and soul were black.
When Xu's mother came up, she immediately saw her daughter standing in the middle of the room, obviously dressed up. She had a look of surprise in her eyes and said dotingly, "My baby has really become a big girl. She is so beautiful.
I don’t know which brat I will get cheaper in the future.”
"Mom, stop talking." Su Zhan arched his eyebrows and said as if he was angry.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore." Xu's mother smiled, thinking of today's purpose, she suddenly felt reluctant to leave.
Her daughter is so good, if that brat named Xu dares to treat her Xueer badly, she, as a mother, will never let him off lightly.
Su Zhan took Xu's mother's arm, and they came to the downstairs hall together.
Xu's father, who was reading the newspaper on the sofa in the hall, looked up and found that his daughter, who rarely dressed up, was also wearing light makeup.
Don't ask him how a straight man could tell. The lipstick on his lips was so obvious, and he wasn't blind.
In the eyes of straight men, a girl's face is as delicate as white jade. It is all natural and there is absolutely no makeup on it.
In Xu's eyes, the criterion for wearing makeup or not is whether or not you wear lipstick.
My daughter has never dressed herself up like this before.
As long as he thought about going to see that brat named Xu, he felt sour in his heart, even if he was the first to propose the marriage between the two families.
His younger brother Xu Qingchen was still at school and had not returned, so after making some preparations, the family of three took a car and rushed to the Chen family where the banquet was being held.
On the road, Su Zhan looked outside the car, as if looking at the scenery outside, but in fact, he was recalling in his mind the details of Xu Qingxue and Xu Ziming's first meeting at Chen's house.
The Chen family is naturally better than the Xu family, which is about to go bankrupt and can only maintain its superficial glory, but compared to the Xu family, which is at its peak, it is not worth mentioning.
With the status of the Chen family, of course they couldn't invite the Xu family to the banquet. But this time, the situation was special. Xu's father was just using the Chen family as an excuse to let Xu Qingxue and Xu Ziming get acquainted.
If it doesn't work, it won't embarrass the two children too much.
But even so, after the news spread that the Xu family was attending the Chen family banquet, many business celebrities who had not originally planned to attend the banquet came, making the head of the Chen family smile from ear to ear.
When Father Xu arrived with his wife and daughter, many sharp-eyed people immediately gathered around him.
Xu's mother immediately left with Su Zhan, chatting with other ladies who also brought their children, and checking the people around her from time to time.
Su Zhan knew that she was looking for Xu Ziming. It had to be said that the Xu family couple had good intentions. If they went on a blind date on this occasion, it would be easy to talk about it. But if it didn't, no one would know, and there would be no one in the future.
Rumors spread.
Su Zhan scanned the surrounding area but did not find Xu Ziming's figure. She remembered that the same was true in Xu Qingxue's life. When Xu's father, wife and daughter arrived, Xu Ziming had not come yet.
Since the target was not there, Su Zhan just found an excuse and walked out.
Of course, the eldest lady of the Xu Group has a lot of attention, and some people immediately looked at the direction she was leaving with twinkling eyes. If they can establish a relationship with her, and how much Xu's father dotes on his daughter according to the rumors, what benefits will be gained.
it goes without saying.
Moreover, the daughter of the Xu Group is so beautiful that even if the money behind her is not considered, there are still many people who want to kiss her.
However, beauty is good, but it is a rose with thorns. If you don't win the beauty's heart, you will first offend the tiger behind her, which is not worth the loss.
Thinking of this, some people who were not brave enough gave up their thoughts. It was better to be cautious and not offend the giant Xu family.
But there were also some people who took the courage of their ambitions, were dazzled by beauty or wealth, and actually followed Su Zhan.
Of course, it is impossible to get these people to do anything. They are just bolder, but they have not completely lost their minds.
If the eldest lady is really angry, not to mention Xu's father, even their family will have to send the person to the Xu family to be beaten and scolded.
Therefore, they just wanted to seize the opportunity and show off their faces in front of the young lady, just in case she fell in love with one of them.
Su Zhan kept a decent smile and politely refused the young masters who approached him one after another. However, the number of people around him only increased.
She finally understood why Xu Qingxue had a good first impression of Xu Ziming in that life.
At that time, Xu Ziming was also late, Xu Qingxue also came out for air just like she did now, and those rich kids with ulterior motives also gathered around her.
Xu Qingxue originally had a quiet and gentle temperament. Although she felt irritated when being surrounded by others, her good upbringing still prevented her from saying anything similar to "get lost".
At this time, the graceful Xu Ziming descended from the sky and helped her get rid of those people's entanglements. Xu Qingxue's first impression of him was naturally very good.
Although she could not be said to be in love, she was not opposed to marrying Xu Ziming at that time, which made Xu's father more and more interested in the marriage.
But now it was Su Zhan's turn. She looked at the rich people with twinkling eyes in front of her, raised her hand to brush the long hair falling on her shoulders, smiled softly and uttered the word "Go away."
Everyone was stunned and looked at her in disbelief. What did they hear just now? The goddess-like person who is known as the most elegant and gentle person in the upper class actually opened her mouth and asked people to get out?
Just when their views were broken and they all felt that there was something wrong with their ears, the girl in front of them with a gentle goddess posture still smiled lightly, but the words she said made people tremble unconsciously.
"I told you to get lost, didn't you hear me?"
After hearing these words completely, everyone could no longer deceive themselves. It turned out that the goddess was actually like this in private.
There was really no one present who had a higher status than Su Zhan, so even if she swore directly, no one dared to resist for a while.
These rich kids looked at each one like a loser, but they had a steelyard in their hearts to weigh who they could provoke and who they couldn't touch.
The reason why they pestered Su Zhan before was not only because of her appearance and family background, but also because they had heard that the eldest daughter of the Xu family had a weak character, so as long as they showed their shame, she should have nothing to do with them.
But now it seems that the rumors can only be rumors.
Has a soft personality? Which person with a soft personality tells people to go away with just one mouthful?
But they really didn't dare to argue with her. If this one didn't go well, they would be beaten to death by their father when they got home.
Su Zhan watched with satisfaction as the people around her dispersed. She wanted to maintain Xu Qingxue's persona in front of the Xu family, but it was completely unnecessary in front of these strangers.
Because according to how afraid they are of the Xu family, as long as the Xu family doesn't collapse, these slippery rich kids will never spread today's events to the outside world.
They were afraid that if her "true face" was exposed, her reputation would be ruined, and Xu's father, who was unreasonable in protecting his daughter, would really kill them.
Even a fool would not offend the huge Xu family just for the sake of anger, let alone them.
To put it another way, even if there is some news, will Xu’s parents believe their own good little cotton-padded jacket, or the outside world’s brat?
Of these two options, I knew they would choose the former without even thinking about it.
In this world, the only people she really needs to pay attention to are the Xu family. As for the others, sorry, her memory is not very good.
Su Zhan was alone and bored. When she turned around and looked into the hall, she saw that Xu's parents and Xu's mother were still talking to outsiders. She didn't see Xu Ziming, so she walked around casually.
Although the Chen family is nothing to the Xu family, it is still considered a wealthy family, and the place it can use to entertain distinguished guests will definitely not be any worse.
She walked along the path next to the hall, walking along the sea of flowers with great interest, getting more and more remote as she walked.
Suddenly, her ears heard some kind of discordant sound. Su Zhan frowned and looked around, only to find that there was no one around.
It's no wonder that some people would make wild mandarin ducks here. They must have thought that everyone was attending the banquet in the front hall and thought that no one would come here at this time.
Su Zhan twitched her lips. She did not disturb other people's interests and hobbies. She was about to return along the way she came from when her ears involuntarily caught a familiar name.
She stopped, a cold light flashed in her eyes. She walked silently towards the place where the sound came from, and peeled back the dense branches, revealing a man and a woman entangled inside.
"Ziming, I heard that the eldest lady of the Xu family is here today, aren't you going to see her?" The female voice was charming and soft with a hint of jealousy, and her voice was sexy and also revealed a sense of laziness afterward.
