Shen Dapeng blinked his eyes and thought about Cao Mengyuan's words. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw two crystal tears rolling out of Cao Mengyuan's eyes, sliding down her white and smooth cheeks, and two clear lines of tears.
Tears appeared on Cao Mengyuan's beautiful face.
"Mengyuan, what's wrong with you? Don't get excited and talk slowly, okay?"
The tears of a girl are the most touching, especially the girl you love the most.
As soon as he saw Cao Mengyuan getting sad, Shen Dapeng felt a pang in his heart and hurriedly comforted her. He raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Cao Mengyuan's face.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shen Dapeng raised his hand to approach Cao Mengyuan's face, Cao Mengyuan pushed him away and stared at Shen Dapeng stubbornly.
"What else can I say? Dapeng, I just want to ask you one thing, do you still have me in your heart?"
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have worked so hard in the past few years. I swore that I would definitely get you in this life!"
After a brief silence, Shen Dapeng breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
Cao Mengyuan didn't speak for a while, but a trace of tenderness appeared in her eyes again, and the stubbornness disappeared.
"Although you have never said such words to me, when we kept our promise, I knew that you would always have me in your heart, right? Even now, you have never given up on me, right?"
Shen Dapeng could see from Cao Mengyuan's eyes that she had always had him in her heart, otherwise, she would not have shed tears in front of him.
Cao Mengyuan nodded lightly, bit her lip and said softly: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have kept dragging it on."
Keep putting it off?
What do you mean by this? Shen Dapeng couldn't help but frown.
"Actually, there is something I have always wanted to tell you, but I just didn't know how to say it. But now that we are together, we have already talked about it, and I have nothing to hide."
Cao Mengyuan breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted her mood and continued: "If I didn't have you in my heart, there would be no need to say this to you."
"What happened?"
After hearing Cao Mengyuan's strange words, Shen Dapeng suddenly became suspicious. He hurriedly moved closer to Cao Mengyuan, held her hand again and asked softly.
Cao Mengyuan calmly raised her head, looked at Shen Dapeng quietly, let her hands be held by Shen Dapeng, and felt the warmth from Shen Dapeng's palms.
"It happened not long ago!" Cao Mengyuan sighed, "Our Cao family has always relied on the Huang family to survive until today. Although from the outside, the strength of our Cao family cannot be underestimated, but knowing the inside story
Who doesn’t know that if the Huang family didn’t give us some business, our Cao family would be where we are today?”
"There is no love without reason in this world, and there is no charity without reason, especially in business competition, everything is conditional."
"I told you at the beginning that the condition is me! The reason why the Huang family helps our Cao family so much is not because of Huang Bin's personal affairs. Huang Bin has always liked me, and his father Huang Zhiwen and my father were very fond of me and Huang Bin.
Bin's marriage was only a verbal agreement. After I graduate from college, the Huang family will formally propose marriage."
"However, as time went by, not only me, but also my parents felt that Huang Bin was too unreliable, so I was always very resistant to this verbal agreement, but I couldn't refuse it directly."
When Cao Mengyuan said this, there was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Shen Dapeng also nodded lightly. How could he not know what Cao Mengyuan said?
As for Huang Bin's character, not only did he feel that there was something wrong with it, but now even Cao Xinmin felt it.
On the night when he met Cao Xinmin in Honglin City, the implication of what Cao Xinmin said to him could not be clearer. Cao Xinmin was dissatisfied with Huang Bin, but admired himself very much, but there was nothing he could do about it.
In my previous life, I clearly remembered that Cao Mengyuan and Huang Bin had been very unhappy after they got married.
Therefore, I made up my mind in this life to get Cao Mengyuan, to give her all the happiness, and not to let her suffer any injustice.
"Now that I have finally graduated from college, the Huang family has naturally not forgotten this matter. They sent someone to our house a few days ago to mention it."
At the end of Cao Mengyuan's words, her voice became lower and lower, and it sounded very sad. She slowly lowered her head, and tears flowed out of her eyes again.
"Then what?" Shen Dapeng asked closely.
He did not expect that what Cao Mengyuan was going to tell him was actually this matter. He also did not expect that such an episode would occur. The Huang family finally showed its cards to the Cao family.
And how will the Cao family handle this matter?
What is the attitude of the Cao family? What should Cao Mengyuan do? Is she capable of rejecting this?
Cao Mengyuan had a hundred reluctances in her heart. I was afraid that she could not count even if she spoke alone. Moreover, because of personal matters, the entire family was hit by the Huang family, which she did not want to see.
"What else then?"
Seeing Shen Dapeng's anxious look, Cao Mengyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Of course the second grandpa urged my father."
Shen Dapeng was shocked. The second grandfather Cao Mengyuan mentioned was of course the current head of the Cao family, Cao Zhongxiao, Cao Xinmin's uncle. He was in charge of most of the Cao family's economic lifeline and political relations. It could be said that he was in charge of the Cao family.
But Cao Zhongxiao understands that it would be impossible for the Cao family to reach this point without the support of the Huang family over the years. On the surface, the Cao family is also a powerful influencer in the capital, but in fact, it is just a subsidiary of the Huang family.
Just a product.
Therefore, over the years, the Cao family has always been cautious and meticulous in doing things, for fear of offending the Huang family.
As long as the Huang family is made unhappy, any move can plunge the now prosperous Cao family into an abyss and rapidly decline. As the head of the family, Cao Zhongxiao knows this very well.
He knew what would happen if he offended the Huang family, so he urged Cao Xinmin to mention the matter again in front of Cao Mengyuan.
"Your father won't agree!"
Shen Dapeng suddenly replied firmly.
Cao Mengyuan was stunned and stared at Shen Dapeng, "Why are you so sure?"
"I have dealt with Secretary Cao several times, and we have a pretty good relationship. Based on my understanding of him, he will not give up his most beloved daughter to a useless second-rate member of the Huang family!"
Shen Dapeng thought of that night a few years ago, when Cao Xinmin and he stood on the street under the dim streetlights, and the sincere words he said to himself.
