A few minutes passed, and both of them remained silent. Except for the occasional few cars or motorcycles passing by, there was no sound.
Obviously, in Honglin City, which is dominated by farmers and supplemented by businessmen, the nightlife cannot be too rich. Shen Dapeng and Cao Xinmin walked for more than ten minutes before returning to their work dormitory. There were no street lights at the entrance of the dormitory compound, and they could only rely on
The light from the dormitory windows makes up for the sight.
In the darkness, Cao Xinmin stopped at attention and patted Shen Dapeng on the shoulder, "Okay, I'm at the dormitory. Call your aunt and the others quickly and ask them which hotel you're staying in. It's too cold, so go to bed early...
…”
"Okay, goodbye, Uncle Cao." Shen Dapeng didn't hesitate or stop at all. He was even a little rude and turned around to leave before Cao Xinmin finished speaking.
The palm that Cao Xinmin had just slapped on Shen Dapeng's shoulder was still hanging in the air, but it had no target. Looking at the somewhat determined Shen Dapeng, he still felt like a child. It was too simple to hide the hostility in his heart. "Dapeng, you and Mengyuan
Isn’t the relationship with her very good? Why didn’t you ask her about her situation? "
"Since you have not returned to the capital with Meng Yuan, but have been supervising the project progress of the ecological park in Honglin City, it means that Meng Yuan is living a good life."
Shen Dapeng had already raised one foot. Hearing Cao Xinmin's question, he put his foot back again, but did not turn around to look at Cao Xinmin, which seemed a bit impolite.
"Mengyuan is my daughter, the best of her generation in the Cao family. Huang Bin, who is married to her, is the son of Huang Zhiwen, the head of the Huang family in the capital. In the future, he will control the successor of the Huang family. Between the Cao family and Huang Bin
Under the joint care and love of her family, Mengyuan will be happy all her life. Do you understand these..."
"hehe."
Shen Dapeng laughed inexplicably, with a hint of disdain, "Cao family? Huang family? That is not something Mengyuan and I should care about. Uncle Cao, I can understand your mentality of treating Mengyuan as a treasure, but
If she really marries into the Huang family, do you guarantee that she will be happy? And will it last a lifetime? "
"Is this an empty promise?"
"There are other commitments between us that I need to work on."
Shen Dapeng answered simply and neatly. Even though Cao Xinmin had been mentally prepared, it still seemed a bit too abrupt to accept, "You...you will hurt yourself and Mengyuan by doing this, do you know?"
"Uncle Cao, what do you want to do, what the Cao family and the Huang family want to do, I have no right and can't stop it. Likewise, you have no right to stop me from doing my own thing. I like Mengyuan, and I respect you and
Auntie, I will never compromise with those who want to stop me and Mengyuan from being together."
"Shen Dapeng, when I left Qingshu County before, I didn't have the nerve to say too much in front of Mengyuan, but this time I really want to make it clear to you that the Cao family and the Huang family are not only involved in the business world.
This generation of people is a prestigious presence in the political world, and they will not allow anyone to go against their wishes."
Cao Xinmin spoke earnestly and wanted to try harder to persuade Shen Dapeng. As soon as he took two steps forward, Shen Dapeng turned around and faced him seriously, his face serious and determined.
"Uncle Cao, I don't believe that 'the depth of the sea is as deep as the sea once you enter the Hou family', let alone 'Xiao Lang is just a passerby from now on'. I am serious about Mengyuan, just like Mengyuan's feelings for me. I don't think
Mengyuan will break our agreement because of the so-called great strength of the Huang family."
"And I believe that you, aunt, and the elders of the Cao family, you all hope that Meng Yuan will live happily, and then it will be the interests brought by the family marriage that will drive you. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than interests. In this case, everything will still matter.
If you have time, you can create a lot and change a lot!"
Shen Dapeng held his head high confidently and straightened his back to restrain his pride. Facing his future father-in-law who was not optimistic about him, all he could do for the time being was to show off his maturity and stability so that his future father-in-law could change his various misunderstandings and opinions about him.
"People must know how to act within their capabilities. How can I not explain to you, you child? You dare to love, hate, think and do, but have you considered Mengyuan? You are barefoot and are not afraid of wearing shoes. You want to
By relying on your brute strength and a little cleverness to go against the Huang family, you will put Mengyuan in an even more embarrassing position, do you know?"
Cao Xinmin frowned angrily, curling the corners of his mouth downward in displeasure. His voice was much louder than before, and his chest was rising and falling with anger, "Mengyuan could obviously go to Shuimu University to study, but because of you
The existence of Huang Bin made Huang Bin jealous and defensive, so the Cao family and the Huang family let Mengyuan return to province H to study at university.
"Do you know that there is a world of difference in the personal connections between Shuimu University and Provincial University? Do you know that Huang Bin and his cousin Huang Yao are both at Provincial University and treat Mengyuan like a prisoner? I don't care
Do you have any private agreement? I don’t want my daughter to be unhappy because of anyone, not you or Huang Bin."
The more Cao Xinmin talked, the more excited he became, which was completely inconsistent with his usually calm personality. Sure enough, everyone has an untouchable softness. Obviously, Cao Xinmin's softest place is his daughter, Cao Mengyuan.
Although he spends most of his time in Honglin City working in the ecological park, Su Xin is still very competent as Cao Mengyuan's mother. She often takes time to go to school, pretending to deliver some daily necessities, but in fact she is secretly observing her daughter's college life.
Are you happy?
Huang Yao, Huang Bin's cousin, this unpleasant character was found out by the attentive Su Xin when she was helping her daughter clean up her bedroom. For Su Xin, this was tantamount to Huang Bin treating her.
Daughter's distrust and a form of surveillance.
When Cao Xinmin first heard these things, he was even angrier than he was now. He almost called Huang Zhiwen. He wanted to remind Huang Zhiwen to take good care of his son as his father-in-law.
But after the call was dialed, Su Xin hung up again. As expected, Huang Zhiwen was his daughter's future father-in-law after all. Among the Huang family and Shen Dapeng, Cao Xinmin, like most people, still favored Huang.
home, he didn't want to leave a bad impression in Huang Zhiwen's eyes, and he didn't want his daughter to be aggrieved at all in the Huang family in the future.
"Uncle Cao, if you think that Meng Yuan is in today's situation entirely because of me, then I have nothing to say if you get angry at me, but you should consider it more. Meng Yuan has just entered her freshman year, and she still needs the care of her family.
Little girl, whether it’s the Cao family or the Huang family, who has the right to ask Mengyuan to do something certain?"
"..." Cao Xinmin was stunned, as if his softest part had been stung, and he lowered his head and remained silent.
