Zhu Tong suddenly stopped.

Mr. Zhu...his father?

Jiang Wan knew the purpose of his father asking him to come to the banquet today?

Didn't she come with Qin Junhong?

Zhu Tong turned his head.

Jiang Wan held the wine glass and smiled: "Can we chat now?"

"..."

In the lounge that Aunt Lian specially arranged for Zhu Tong, there was a rectangular coffee table with a set of single sofas on each side. Two people sat on the sofa respectively, with a long distance between them.

Jiang Wan gestured with her eyes, and said in surprise, "Master Zhu... are you sure we want to talk like this?"

Zhu Tong said lightly: "Sorry, I am allergic to perfume."

Jiang Wan: "..."

She had never met someone who rejected her so completely.

Seeing her silence, Zhu Tong took the initiative and said, "Tell me, what does my dad want to do when he brings me to the banquet?"

Jiang Wan said: "This is not the attitude of asking people to explain your doubts."

Zhu Tong said, "I don't have to know."

"..."

Jiang Wan smiled, put the wine glass on the coffee table, raised her eyes and said, "Young Master Zhu, is it safe? Because you think Mr. Zhu can't do anything to you?"

Zhu Tong frowned lightly.

What does this mean?

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Jiang Wan looked at him in silence for a while, then narrowed her eyes and said, "It seems that you really don't know anything."

But since he didn't know, why did Zhu Tong treat her that way on the balcony just now?

Judging from Zhu Tong's reaction, he obviously knew her and was guarding against her.

Although her reputation is not very good, but her identity is there, even if some people hate her in their hearts, they are polite to her on the surface.

In City A, no one dared to show his dislike for her so clearly like Zhu Tong.

If it wasn't because he knew about the deal between her and Zhushoushan, it would be...he really didn't take himself seriously.

Interest flashed in Jiang Wan's eyes, and she said with a smile: "Mr. Zhu's method of concealing people is really amazing, but I thought Mr. Zhu would reveal a little bit to you about Young Master Zhu's lifelong event."

As early as when Jiang Wan talked to him on the balcony, Zhu Tong had a vague suspicion.

Who is Jiang Wan?What good could it do if she took the initiative to strike up a conversation?

But hearing her mention the "big event in life", Zhu Tong still felt a chill in his heart. He thought he was numb, but he felt a prickly pain.

Is that what he meant?

Jiang Wan's words overwhelmed the last trace of luck in his heart: "A few days ago, I proposed a marriage with Mr. Zhu, and he agreed."

Zhu Tong: "..."

Zhu Tong had only one thought in his mind at the moment: Is his father crazy?

He is only 17 years old!

He slowly clenched his hands and looked up at the person opposite.

Jiang Wan sat with her legs crossed and was smiling at him with a friendly expression on her face.

Zhu Tong suddenly realized that even a person who is already disappointed, he can disappoint you even more.

He is like this, what about Xiao Xin?

What are he and Xiaoxin to their father?

He was silent for a while, then said coldly, "How do you know me?"

He didn't believe that Jiang Wan would follow him for no reason.

A person flashed in his mind, Zhu Tong said in a low voice, "It's Qin Junhong?"

Jiang Wan was slightly surprised.

My mind was spinning pretty fast.

"Young Master Zhu is smarter than I thought."

"..."

This is the admission.

After knowing that it was Qin Junhong, Zhu Tong calmed down instead. He looked at Jiang Wan and said, "I don't know how to get married. I believe Miss Jiang decided to get married not because she likes me."

If it was really for family marriage, Jiang Wan could have made a better choice. If she wanted to get married, she wouldn't have been romantic for so many years.

Jiang Wan said, "It wasn't true at first, but it might be now."

According to her investigation, the young master of the Zhu family has been hospitalized all year round, and he treats everything with a nonchalant attitude.

When he mentioned the marriage, he was clearly repelled, but he adjusted his emotions quickly, and even thought about how to reject her.

Very interesting.

Zhu Tong calmly said, "Why do you want to get married?"

Jiang Wan said truthfully: "The board of directors requested that if I don't get married, I have to give up my position as the helm of the Jiang family."

Zhu Tong: "Then why did you choose me?"

Jiang Wan said ambiguously, "Maybe it's because you're good-looking?"

Zhu Tong said, "No, it's because I'm dying."

"..."

Jiang Wan slightly raised her eyebrows.

Zhu Tong said: "Ms. Jiang's proposal of marriage must have been investigated in advance. I am seriously ill and a frequent visitor to the ICU. The doctor has asserted more than once that my current body may die at any time. If you choose me, you can handle the board of directors. You don’t have to worry about future worries, anyway, I won’t live long, after widowing, you are still your free body, and you can still enjoy the benefits brought to you by the marriage of the two families.”

Jiang Wan was noncommittal, she smiled lightly and said, "You are right, but there is one thing, it is not for my benefit, but for our benefit."

"..."

Jiang Wan said: "Since you can guess that it was Qin Junhong who introduced you to me, you must also know what kind of person your stepbrother is. He met me in front of me even though he knew who I was. You highly recommend it, but Mr. Zhu... your father, after I gave him a plan for a shipping project, he agreed to the deal I proposed without hesitation. The current Zhu family is very important to Master Zhu. , it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, right?"

Zhu Tong was a little surprised that she would take the initiative to bring up Qin Junhong's "bad intentions". Before Qin Junhong sent her to the birthday party, weren't they very close?

She just told the whole thing about the deal?

The ocean freight project...is it just a project?

He suddenly wanted to laugh.

Jiang Wan continued: "If you agree to the marriage, I can take you out of the Zhu family, and I can also make Qin Junhong pay the price. Even if it is the entire Zhu family, I can help you with whatever you want..."

"Thanks, but I don't need it."

Zhu Tong interrupted her softly, "I will not marry you."

Jiang Wan said, "Why?"

Zhu Tong was silent for a while and said, "I have someone I like."

Although Jiang Wan is romantic, she also has a principle: don't force it.

No matter who she associates with, what she talks about is your love and my wish.

Probably did not expect that Zhu Tong's answer would be this. Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Oh? I don't know what kind of person caught Master Zhu's eyes?"

Zhu Tong was just talking casually at first, but when Jiang Wan asked, a person clearly appeared in his mind.

His heartbeat suddenly missed, his ears turned red, and he tried to calm down and said, "This is none of Miss Jiang's business."

Jiang Wan had been paying attention to his reaction, and couldn't help being a little surprised.

Really?

He suddenly thought of the beautiful boys he met in the bar last time.

Jiang Wan smiled even more, looked at Zhu Tong for a while, and suddenly said: "Well, I can give up the marriage between the two families."

Zhu Tong: "..."

He was a little surprised.

Is Jiang Wan so principled?

Could it be that Jiang Wan's character design is also mechanical, just like a heartthrob who has no brains and intelligence. As long as she conforms to the "principles", she will act according to the principles unconditionally?

I always feel that she agreed too easily.

"But I have one condition."

Zhu Tong: "What condition?"

Jiang Wan looked at him and said, "You have to tell me what kind of relationship you have with Cheng Chen."

Zhu Tong was startled.

cousin?

What does this have to do with my cousin?

Zhu Tong unconsciously frowned, but before he could speak, Jiang Wan said again: "Forget it if you don't want to talk about it, then even if you owe me a favor for this matter, don't forget, Young Master Zhu."

His momentary surprise and hesitation are enough to explain many problems.

"..."

Zhu Tongxin thought: He didn't have to ask Jiang Wan to "retire the engagement" to cancel the marriage, so why should he count it as a favor he owes?

Looking up to refute, Jiang Wan's expression suddenly changed.

She put away the playfulness in her eyes, and said seriously: "Young Master Zhu will tell Mr. Zhu himself about the cancellation of the transaction, and I will remind Young Master Zhu in a friendly way that when it is broken, it will be broken. Not all parents in the world are worthy of expectations. "

"..."

What is this man looking for today?

As Jiang Wan spoke, she picked up the glass of wine she had put on the tea table before, and sipped it carefully.

She was not in a hurry to leave either. After finishing the conversation, she sat for a while before going out from the lounge.

After the lounge door was closed again, Zhu Tong's face darkened completely.

Marriage.

It turned out that he was in his father's heart, even if he had only one breath left, there was still value in marriage.

Isn't it worth having expectations?

He didn't seem to have any expectations, but he didn't "stop when it's time to stop".

Outside the lounge, the banquet continued.

Since Jiang Wan didn't go out from the balcony in the end, he went directly from the lounge to the main venue of the banquet. Maybe he saw it, or maybe he had been watching it all the time. Not long after Jiang Wan left, someone came in.

Zhu Shoushan walked into the lounge, looked at the person sitting on the sofa with his head down, walked over and said, "Tongtong, what's wrong? Is there something uncomfortable?"

When Zhu Tong heard his caring voice, he felt unspeakable sarcasm in his heart.

Without looking up, he whispered, "I'm a little tired, Dad, let's go back."

"..."

Before Zhushoushan came, he thought about Zhu Tong's attitude, maybe he would complain, maybe he would be angry, but he had already thought of a reason to appease him, but he never expected Zhu Tong to be so calm.

He didn't think much about it, even if Zhu Tong wanted to make trouble, it would be better to go back and make trouble here than here.

He said gently, "Okay, Dad will take you home."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help Zhu Tong up, but before he touched him, Zhu Tong had already avoided him and stood up, walking towards the door.

Zhushoushan couldn't help but frowned.

When I went out, I met my aunt in the banquet hall. My aunt had a bad face when she saw the birthday celebration mountain. She heard that Zhu Tong was tired, so she wanted to take Zhu Tong away immediately, but Zhu Tong politely refused.

Although very disappointed, my aunt did not force Zhu Tong to go with her.

On the car back, Zhu Tong sat in the back seat near the window, keeping a distance from the people on the other side as much as possible.

Looking at the receding night scene outside the car window, he couldn't help thinking of Shao Ming.

I want to be relaxed and comfortable by his side, and I want to have interesting daily life inside and outside of school.

He suddenly longed to see Shao Ming, as if as long as he could see him, all the emotions in his heart would be calmed down.

The previous WeChat message still has no reply.

What is Shao Ming doing now?Why not message him back?

He was inexplicably aggrieved.

But why is he wronged?

He and Shao Ming are not in a relationship that must reply to messages in time. Even if Shao Ming replied to him, what can he say?

Said he was going to be forced to marry someone else?

Shao Ming probably thought this was a fairy tale.

What was his father thinking when he agreed to Jiang Wan's deal?

What are you thinking when you secretly look at him from time to time?

Wouldn't it be better to just say something?

The car stopped outside the gate of the villa, Zhu Tong got out of the car without saying a word, and walked into the gate of the villa first.

It was a familiar hall, but he hadn't returned for a long time, and he already felt very strange, so he just sat down on the sofa.

Zhushoushan was at the door, took off his coat and handed it to the maid, then hesitantly walked towards the living room.

After ordering the servant to warm up a cup of milk for Zhu Tong, Zhu Shoushan sat down on the sofa next to Zhu Tong.

Zhu Tong's attitude made him feel strange.

Neither was he as indifferent and indifferent as before, nor was he resentful and angry as he imagined.

When Jiang Wan came out of the lounge, she had her usual social smile on her face. She was not in a hurry, and left without saying hello. What did she and Zhu Tong say in the lounge? Zhushoushan had no way of knowing. Know.

He didn't know how to talk to Zhu Tong about dealing with others.

The servant quickly brought up the milk. After Zhu Shoushan took it, he passed it in front of Zhu Tong and said, "You hardly take part in such occasions, are you not used to it? You must not have eaten much, so drink a cup of hot milk first."

With no emotion on Zhu Tong's face, he raised his hand to take it.

Zhu Shoushan breathed a sigh of relief, and pondered: "I heard that you met Jiang Wan in the lounge today, and the two chatted for a long time?"

Zhu Tong held the milk without moving, tilted his head and said, "Is there any need to hear about the things you arranged yourself?"

Zhushoushan froze suddenly.

Zhu Tong pretended not to see it, and continued: "The marriage is cancelled, we are in the lounge, and this is what we are talking about."

Zhushoushan's breathing was obviously quick for a moment.

Marriage canceled?How can this be?

The marriage was brought up by Jiang Wan on her own initiative, how could she agree to cancel it?

And he arranged for Zhu Tong to go to the banquet today, just to let the two get to know each other first, how did Zhu Tong know about the marriage?

Zhu Shoushan reluctantly said: "Tongtong, what are you talking about, how could Dad..."

Zhu Tong interrupted him: "Jiang Wan told me personally."

"..."

Zhu Shoushan paused, his brows slowly tightened.

Zhu Tong looked at him and said, "Dad, you asked me to marry the Jiang family, have you asked my opinion?"

After all, Zhu Shoushan felt that he was wronged, and he didn't dare to look into Zhu Tong's eyes. He sat upright on the sofa and said, "This matter is not what you think. I originally planned to tell you after a while. Since you already know, Then I won't hide it from you, the Jiang family suddenly proposed a marriage...it really happened."

Zhu Tong listened indifferently.

Zhu Shoushan said: "But I won't force you on this matter, I just want you to try to get in touch with others, if you don't want to, then I..."

"I do not want to."

Zhushoushan was choked by him.

He seemed to feel a headache, pressed his forehead lightly, turned his head and said: "You don't want to now because you don't know Jiang Wan yet. The reason why she proposes marriage is also because of helplessness. In order to control the Jiang family, she needs a name." The husband in the world, even if married, is only a couple in name, she will only respect you, and will not treat you..."

Zhu Tong said in a deep voice, "I'm only 17 years old."

"I know you are only 17 years old, and I don't intend to let you get married now, you can decide the marriage..."

Speaking of Zhushoushan suddenly stopped.

Zhu Tong looked at him expressionlessly.

A second ago, he said that he would not force it, but now it is already "finalize the marriage first".

In his heart, he never cared about Zhu Tong's "whether or not".

Realizing that he had slipped the tongue, Zhu Shoushan's face was not very good-looking.

He remedied: "You also know that you are not in good health. Wouldn't it be a good thing if one more person could take care of you? Dad is busy every day, and Xiao Xin also has to study. If you get married, we Your sister can feel more at ease too, can't she?"

Zhu Tong's heart was so cold that he couldn't even feel the warmth of the hot milk in his hand.

Does Zhushoushan know that Jiang Wan was found by Qin Junhong?Maybe he didn't care at all, all he cared about was Jiang's background and the benefits it could bring him.

Zhu Tong suddenly laughed and said, "Now you feel that Qin Manwen can no longer make you feel at ease, don't you?"

Zhu Shoushan's expression changed suddenly, "What did you say?"

"Isn't it?" Zhu Tong looked directly at him and said, "Didn't you marry Qin Manwen to let her take care of me and Xiaoxin, and to let you get rid of me?"

"you……"

"Now that Xiaoxin has grown up, she doesn't need anyone to take care of her anymore. You drove Qin Junhong out of Zhu's house because Qin Junhong carried your property behind his back, and you didn't even trust Qin Manwen. You need a new person to take over me. Sending away my trouble will also bring you closer to the Jiang Corporation, as well as the shipping project that you have already obtained, Mr. Zhu, you really deserve to be a businessman."

Anger appeared on Zhushoushan's face.

He didn't expect that his son, who has always been well-behaved and sensible in front of him, would contradict him so directly today, let alone that Jiang Wan's "teammate" sold him out so thoroughly!

She even told Zhu Tong about the shipping project, did Cheng Qingsong know?

While he was angry, there was also a trace of panic in his heart.

But Zhu Tong put down the milk and got up: "I won't accept the marriage, I came back with you just to tell you about it."

And to take away some things that I still left in the room.

"Tongtong is back? After finally coming back, why are the father and son still arguing? What happened?"

A voice came from the stairs, and Qin Manwen walked quickly towards the living room with a concerned face.

Zhu Tong looked up and didn't intend to pay attention.

Since his father had already made up his mind to "send him away", Qin Manwen was no longer valuable to him.

Zhu Shoushan married Qin Manwenwen not because of feelings. After the "chess piece" has no effect, what will this woman face?

Zhu Tong is no longer interested in knowing.

He bypassed Qin Manwen and went directly upstairs.

In the living room, Zhu Shoushan stood up abruptly and said, "Are you doing it for that poor boy named Shao Ming?"

Zhu Tong paused and turned slightly.

He guessed right, the "new friend" Zhushoushan mentioned on the phone last time was Shao Ming.

How did Zhushoushan know about Shao Ming?Has he sent people to Gongshui County?

In the eyes of others, his silence is tacit consent. Zhu Shoushan's face changed, and his mood was no longer gentle. He frowned and looked at Zhu Tong and said, "What's so good about that kid? He approached you purposefully, for you He is just a bug in the mud ditch who just wants to drag you up. A person like him will not help you in the future. You dare to contradict me because of him. I knew you would become what you are today , I shouldn't have promised you to transfer to that kind of place!"

Zhushoushan obviously misunderstood something, but Zhu Tong didn't intend to explain.

He didn't know who misled his relationship with Shao Ming in front of his father.

So Zhushoushan could not wait to arrange a marriage for him because he was afraid that he would be with Shao Ming and that he would bring back a poor boy who would not be of any help to him?

Zhu Tong's heart sank slightly, and he said coldly, "What about you?"

Zhushou Mountain stagnates.

Zhu Tong said: "You regard me as a tool for marriage. Don't you want to drag Jiang's family to the top? Are you more noble than others? You refuse to admit that your grandfather helped you, and you want to prove it for your poor self-esteem. Show grandpa, do you want to rely on the Jiang family to strengthen yourself and make grandpa look up to you? But your actions will only make grandpa look down on you even more, you deserve grandpa to look down on you!"

He has almost no emotional ups and downs, but the words he can say are heart-pounding.

Qin Manwen was stunned by his words.

Is this still the same Zhu Tong who was silent and indifferent to everything?

Zhu Shoushan's face turned red quickly, as if he had been touched by something, and his heart was burning. He walked towards Zhu Tong quickly, and couldn't help raising his hand, but before he dropped his hand, Zhu Tong's face turned pale.

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Tong heard a mechanical reminder in his head.

"Bai Yueguang's favorability has dropped by 15%, and the current favorability is 44%."

Zhu Tong felt his heart twitch.

15% drop? ?Why?

Isn't he separated from Shao Ming by thousands of miles?

And isn't this number a bit unlucky?

Before he could react, the voice rang in his head again.

"Bai Yueguang's favorability increased by 21%, and the current favorability is 65%."

"Bai Yueguang's favorability increased by 5%, and the current favorability is 70%."

Zhu Tong: "..."

Zhu Tong: "???"

What about playing?

Just after experiencing the ups and downs of life, he suddenly became dizzy and everything in front of his eyes became blurred. Zhu Tong's body instantly tilted and he fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
