"Ajie, come in, come into the room, I have something to talk to you about." He had just finished eating. Xiao Jing looked at his son who was sitting on the sofa in a daze and frowned. Naturally, he knew a little bit about Xiao Jie's behavior.
Status, what is it related to.
The beautiful woman who was cleaning up the dishes at the side was Xiao Jie's mother Hua Yun. She also knew why Xiao Jing was looking for Xiao Jie. She looked at Xiao Jie with distress in her eyes and guilt in her eyes.
.
On the sofa, there is a handsome man wearing sports and leisure clothes. His facial features are as sculptured, but his expression at this moment is somewhat inconsistent with his handsome facial features. Xiao Jie looked at the TV with empty eyes. Anyone can
You can see the former's loss and sad expression, as if he is isolated from the outside world, sitting motionless.
At the dinner table, Xiao Jing saw Xiao Jie still in a daze on the sofa, his dark eyes staring blankly at the TV in front of him. He couldn't hear himself calling him, so he walked over and pushed Xiao Jie gently with a soft smile.
, said: "Ajie, Ajie."
Feeling someone from outside pushing him, Xiao Jie's body trembled slightly, he came back to his senses, and immediately looked up at his father, his tone was calm, but everyone could hear the sadness in it, and said
: "Dad, what's wrong?"
Xiao Jing's brows were furrowed, and there was an aura of calmness and dignity between his brows, but his eyes gradually relaxed when it came to his only son. He spoke as softly as possible, "Come into my room, I have something to talk to you about."
Let’s talk.”
Hearing this, Xiao Jie just said lightly, stood up, his handsome face still had a hint of loneliness, as if he had lost his soul, his steps moved lightly, and he slowly followed Xiao Jing in.
In a house.
After entering the room, Xiao Jie closed the door and heard Xiao Jing pointing to the chair next to him and saying with a smile: "Sit down first. There is something I need to let you know today."
Xiao Jie also walked to the chair very obediently. As soon as he sat down, he asked softly: "Dad, what's the matter?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a creaking sound. Xiao Jie followed the sound and looked at the door. He saw the door open and a beautiful woman walked in. She was Xiao Jie's mother, Hua Yun.
Xiao Jie also tried his best to hide the sadness in his heart. He twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, pretending to smile brightly, and said with concern: "Mom, don't you go and take a rest? You have to go to work during the day, you are very tired."
No matter how ignorant he is, Xiao Jie knows that it is not easy for his parents to support him. He has worked hard for the family's livelihood during the day and has to cook for himself when he comes home. Poor parents in the world. Xiao Jie also keeps this sentence in mind.
Therefore, in order not to let his parents worry, Xiao Jie slowly learned to do housework and other tasks.
After hearing Xiao Jie's words of concern, Hua Yun's heart felt warmer. Her son was so old and so sensible. But for what happened today, she also knew that Xiao Jing had made a lot of determination, so she took action.
She looked at her son distressedly, smiled happily and said, "It's okay, your dad has something to tell you, and mom is here to listen."
After that, he walked to Xiao Jie's side and sat down. Seeing the distressed look in his mother's eyes, Xiao Jie was slightly stunned, laughed dryly, and looked at Xiao Jing.
Seeing Xiao Jie's gaze, Xiao Jie also smiled slightly on his resolute face. He looked at Xiao Jie and said slowly: "Ajie, you are dating a girl these days."
Xiao Jie was stunned on the spot, looked at Xiao Jing with blank eyes, and then said with a wry smile: "We have been dating for nearly three years, but today she suddenly came to tell me that she broke up with me..."
"If I told you that I asked that girl to tell you this, would you hate dad..." Seeing the sadness in his son's eyes, Xiao Jing's eyes also felt distressed. No one else
Parents don't love their children, Xiao Jie is like this, Xiao Jing and Hua Yun's hearts are as sharp as a knife.
Hearing his father's words, Xiao Jie's eyes were filled with mist, and he immediately looked at his father in confusion, with a trembling voice: "You... why did you do this? Don't you know, if you do this,
Would I be very sad? If my mother left you like this, I think you would feel the same as me at the moment."
Xiao Jing did not answer Xiao Jie's question, and then said: "I have to do this because of my family. Even if you hate dad, I can't help it."
The sadness on Jun Yi's face was even more intense. First, his girlfriend suddenly broke up with him, and second, his father was causing trouble. Xiao Jie's hands slowly grabbed his hair, trying not to let his tears fall, and Chen Shen
He asked loudly: "I don't hate you, but I want to know why you did this."
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Jing also knew that he had to tell Xiao Jie everything, and said with a serious face: "Our family is not content with the status quo. In the early years, I tried to prevent you from getting involved in this dark and scheming thing. So did I.
I brought you here so that you could have a happy and carefree youth. I also planned to tell you about this in ten years, but due to the pressure from all parties, I had to make a decision."
"Ajie, our family... was founded by me, and has barely squeezed into the top ten wealthy families in the world. In the process of development, it is inevitable that we will form rivals, but in recent years, some families who have enmity with our family have
The forces also want to bring down our family, which has caused my Xiao family to gradually go downhill."
"So...just like when you watch the plot on TV, our Xiao family also needs marriage to win over powerful allies so that the Xiao family can continue to develop."
The top ten wealthy families in the world? Xiao Jie was completely confused. He understood. Combined with what his father just said, he finally understood why his father would break them up and why he would cause trouble. Xiao Jing wanted him to marry someone he didn't know and didn't know.
A strange woman whom I had met before. So, she looked at her father helplessly: "Just because of this, you want to treat me as a pawn to marry a girl I don't know and have never met?"
Hua Yun also saw Xiao Jie's helplessness and sadness, and felt heartbroken. He stretched out his hand, took his son into his arms, and said: "Ajie, we know that doing this will make you very sad, but the Xiao family is gradually
The reason for the decline is that there is no other way but to use marriage to make the Xiao family strong again."
Xiao Jie looked at his mother, who was hugging him, and then at his father. He saw a hint of pleading in their eyes, and understood that the family could be strong for a period of time because his parents had invested a lot of effort and worked hard.
Come. However, when thinking that he would be with a girl who has no feelings for the rest of his life, Xiao Jie felt that his life had no color, it was dark and there was no sunshine.
Xiao Jie lowered his head and pondered, saying nothing.
For a moment, there was silence in the room, and the three of them were silent. Xiao Jing and Hua Yun knew that this would embarrass their son, but they had no choice but to be so cruel when they thought of the pressure their family had endured from all forces over the years.
Xiao Jie raised his head, looked at his parents, with a hint of unbearable in his eyes, and said slowly: "What if I don't agree?"
After sighing, Xiao Jing smiled bitterly and said with firmness in his tone: "If you don't agree, then I can only put you under house arrest and release you when the family gets married."
Hua Yun still hugged Xiao Jie and said with a trembling voice: "Ajie, be good and listen to your parents, okay? Your parents don't want to force you, but there is no other way. Once the Xiao family falls, we will not only have to flee in all directions.
, and you have to live on the streets. We don’t want you to enter that world so quickly, but the situation is different now. If there are no allies to help, the Xiao family will gradually be defeated by other forces."
Xiao Jie suddenly raised his head, made a final struggle, and said excitedly: "I can, I can, believe me, I can make the Xiao family strong again."
Hearing this, Xiao Jing shook his head and said: "This is not as simple as you think. Only marriage can make the Xiao family strong again."
Xiao Jie said helplessly: "Is there no other way?"
"This is the best way, there is no other way." Xiao Jing replied.
"Give me one night to think about it. This happened too suddenly. I didn't have the best preparation. I will give you an answer tomorrow." Xiao Jie said helplessly.
Xiao Jing thought about it and thought it would be good to give his son some time to think about it. He said cheerfully: "Okay, give me an answer tomorrow. I hope you won't disappoint me."
Xiao Jie nodded feebly and said nothing more.
Hua Yun felt sorry for his son and said dotingly: "Ajie, mommy will make you a bowl of chicken soup."
A flash of apology flashed in Xiao Jie's eyes, but Xiao Jing and Hua Yun didn't notice it. He said softly: "No, Mom, you go and have a rest. I have to rest too."
Seeing his son like this, Hua Yun was too embarrassed to force himself. He also thought it would be good to give his son more time to think about it. He touched Xiao Jie's head and said, "Well, mom is going to have a rest. You should also think about it."
You are the hope of our Xiao family."
Xiao Jie nodded: "Mom, I understand, I will think about it carefully."
When Hua Yun saw this, he didn't say much, looked at Xiao Jie with guilty eyes, and walked out of the room with her husband Xiao Jing.
In fact, Xiao Jie had already thought about it in his deep thought just now. Tonight, he would sneak out of the house secretly and work alone outside.
He has every confidence in himself. As long as he works hard, he will definitely make the Xiao family strong again. In this way, his father will no longer force him to marry a girl he doesn't like, and he will not need to become a pawn for the family's prosperity. He will
Help the Xiao family become stronger by yourself, rather than relying on marriage to make the Xiao family stronger.
The Xiao family can stand as a powerful family in the world and will not be destroyed in a short period of time. Therefore, he urgently needs time to grow up quickly. He may not have confidence in others, but Xiao Jie has everything about his own mind.
He was so confident that he didn't know why. As long as he used his own brain to think, all problems would be solved.
