Chapter 471 Meeting with the Chen Family

After getting off the car and walking into Cuihua Building, Zhou Tian was welcomed into an exquisite private room by the guards who had been waiting at the door.

In the box, a middle-aged man in military uniform had his back to the two of them.

"Report to the commander, the guests have arrived!"

"Okay, you go down first!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand, and the guard immediately retreated and closed the door of the box.

"Are you Zhou Tian?"

After the guard left, the middle-aged man slowly turned around, looked at Zhou Tian and asked. Although his tone was relatively calm, for some reason, it gave people an indescribable feeling of oppression.

"Yes, Chief, I am Zhou Tian!"

Zhou Tian said calmly, as if he was not moved at all by the middle-aged man's power.

"Very good! Sit down!"

Seeing that the power he displayed had no effect on the boy, the middle-aged man could only look at him deeply, motioned him to sit down, and then said: "I guess you should know why I came to you today?"

"Know!"

Zhou Tian sat down and nodded.

"Well, I want to ask you what you think about the marriage between my daughter and your second brother?"

"what?"

Zhou Tian was stunned by the middle-aged man's words. He originally thought that the Chen family invited him to the banquet to persuade his second brother not to be a toad wanting to eat swan meat, but he didn't expect that the other party was here to discuss the marriage between his second brother and Chen Yaning. This really caught him off guard.

"Why? Dean Zhou seems to have never thought about this matter from the beginning?"

Seeing Zhou Tian's appearance, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, and he asked in a deep voice.

You know, when he first learned that his daughter was dating Zhou Hao, he didn't take it seriously at first, but as the two of them were dating more and more frequently, he soon discovered something was wrong.

He had originally planned to find someone to warn Zhou Hao in a few days, but he did not expect to be threatened by the old man before he could take any action. This instead aroused his curiosity about the Zhou family, so he asked someone to investigate, but the result was somewhat shocking.

He never expected that the young man in front of him had a confidentiality level in the country that was no lower than his.

This gave him a new idea to break up the couple, but now it seemed that the young man in front of him didn't seem to be interested in this marriage, which made him unhappy.

"No, how could that be!"

Hearing the other party's words, Zhou Tian immediately shook his head and denied it. Are you kidding? He couldn't admit it. If he really admitted it, wouldn't he be an enemy of the other party?

"Commander, I just feel that this is a bit too abrupt. After all, my second brother and your daughter's relationship has not been finalized yet, and both parties have not confirmed whether they are dating. If we decide on their marriage right now, wouldn't it be inappropriate to tell others about it?"

Seeing that the other party's face was becoming more and more gloomy, Zhou Tian hurriedly explained.

"Is that so? It seems so!"

After listening to Zhou Tian's explanation, the middle-aged man's expression eased a little. Thinking of what he had just said, he was indeed a little anxious.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"Commander, I think we should first confirm your daughter's attitude towards my second brother. After all, if the two are really in love with each other, it won't be too late for us to consider their marriage. But if it's just my second brother's one-sided love, I will persuade him to give up!"

Zhou Tian spoke the truth.

"Give up, why? Is my daughter not worthy of your second brother?"

The middle-aged man's face instantly became gloomy again. You know, his daughter is the apple of his eye. Now he has finally accepted Zhou Hao in his heart, but Zhou Tian's words made him feel extremely unhappy.

"No, Chief, as the saying goes, a new country, a new atmosphere. Now the country advocates freedom of love. We can't go back to the old path of arranged marriages!"

Zhou Tian was suddenly left at a loss for words by the middle-aged man. After all, what he said just now was actually for the other party's daughter's good. But now it seemed like his second brother had become a scumbag. Wasn't this a joke?

"No, this matter cannot be discussed. Since your second brother is dating my daughter, he cannot abandon her. I will not agree to this. Your second brother must marry my daughter. Otherwise, don't blame my Chen family!"

"No, Chief, can you please ask your daughter's opinion first?"

Zhou Tian was really shocked by the middle-aged man's train of thought. The two of them haven't confirmed their relationship yet, but the other party is anxious to marry off his daughter. How much he hopes his daughter can marry into their family.

"That's easy. I'll have someone call her over right away and ask her in person!"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man stood up and said to the outside: "Xiao Zhou!"

"To!"

As the voice of the guard came from outside the door, the middle-aged man continued: "Go, fetch Yaning, I have something to ask her!"

"Yes! Chief!"

The guard responded and the footsteps gradually faded away. This made Zhou Tian a little confused. He really didn't expect that he was worried whether his second brother would be disliked by the other party, but now the other party was in a hurry to marry off his daughter. This made him wonder, is it because he didn't have a deep understanding of this era, or is getting married really so casual now?

He originally wanted to give some advice, but after hearing what the other party said, he had to give up temporarily. Now he could only wait for Chen Yaning to come and ask her what she thought.

In less than half an hour,

A light and slightly hurried sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

Then, the door of the box was gently pushed open, and a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old walked in with elegant steps. When her clear and bright eyes saw the situation in the box, her pink cheeks instantly flushed as if dyed by the sunset.

Obviously, she still has some understanding of Zhou Hao's elder brother Zhou Tian.

"dad!"

The crisp voice echoed in the box, and the girl came to the middle-aged man with a shy look on her face.

"Hahaha, my daughter, you're here. Come on, tell daddy, do you like Zhou Hao or not?"

When the middle-aged man saw his daughter coming, a cheerful smile immediately appeared on his face and he asked straightforwardly.

"Dad, what did you say?"

When Chen Yaning heard what her father said, she was so embarrassed that she almost buried her head in her chest, and she had the urge to run away.

"Okay, don't be shy. You're a grown-up girl now. Just tell me. If you like Zhou Hao, then Dad and his elder brother will arrange an engagement for you two right away, and you can get married after you finish college. If you don't like him, then Dad will break his legs for you!"

"Dad, no!"

Chen Yaning paused for a moment, then hurriedly spoke. At this moment, she didn't even care about being shy, and directly opened her mouth to stop him.

Only Zhou Tian looked at the middle-aged man in silence, labeling him as an old fox in his heart, thinking: "It turns out that you can't judge a person by appearance. I didn't expect that this chief who speaks so rudely actually has such a rogue side!"

"Then tell me, do you like Zhou Hao?"

The middle-aged man didn't pay any attention to Zhou Tian's strange look, and still stared at his daughter with sharp eyes.

"I like it. I like it, okay? Dad, I'm going to ignore you! I'm going to tell grandpa!"

Chen Yaning was a smart person after all. She reacted quickly and realized that she had fallen into her father's trap. She knew that her father was trying to trick her, especially in front of Brother Zhou Hao. This made her feel embarrassed. She turned around and ran outside.

"Hey, hey? Yaning, don't run!"

When the middle-aged man heard his daughter's words, he shuddered all over. Seeing his daughter disappear in the box, he was about to chase her out, but in the end he could only watch his daughter disappear outside the box!
