After Cao Xinghua finished speaking, he put on his reading glasses again. Looking at Chu Yu, he quietly waited for Chu Yu's reply.
The clock on the wall was ticking, and outside the window there were unknown birds flapping their wings and flying in the sky. As Cao Xinghua spoke, Chu Yu's eyes fell on Cao Xinghua's desk. Because he likes calligraphy, in Cao Xinghua's
On the desk filled with books, there was a frame for collecting brushes. Five brushes were hung on it, including hand-written brushes and fine brushes. As for the material, Chu Yu could not tell anything about it. Looking away from the desk, Chu Yu's eyes fell on
There is a piece of calligraphy written on the back of the desk: If you have books, you will be rich and noble, and if you have nothing to do, you will be a little fairy.
Withdrawing his gaze from the desk, Chu Yu looked at Cao Xinghua. The latter looked as usual, not joking at all. After recalling what Cao Xinghua had just said, Chu Yu suddenly remembered a few things. Last night, Cao Yu turned around and asked himself how he felt about Cao Xinghua.
How about the soy milk that Cao Man prepared for himself this morning, and what Cao Man said to him just now. These questions flashed from Chu Yu's mind, and in an instant Chu Yu knew what he was going to face, but
There was one thing Chu Yu couldn't understand, and that was what Cao Xinghua just said to him. Did Cao Man mean it?
Seeing that Chu Yu remained silent, Cao Xinghua was not angry. On the contrary, he smiled and said: "Chu Yu, you grew up in the Chu family. Now that you have left the Chu family, you don't have to look at their faces anymore. If you have any concerns, just tell them."
, the Cao family will try their best to satisfy you."
Chu Yu shook his head: "I just think things are a little rushed. After all, an engagement is a lifelong event. Please allow me to think about it carefully, director."
Cao Xinghua did not expect that Chu Yu would answer like this. In his plan, Chu Yu should be happy to agree to it at this moment. After all, Cao Man's father, Cao Jiande, is the executive officer of the China Alliance, and the Cao family is not short of money.
Lacking power, and Cao Man was the top choice regardless of his appearance, Chu Yu actually said to think about it carefully? What is there to think about when the world loses its pie? Thinking of this, Cao Xinghua looked at Chu Yu and spoke with a trace of emotion.
Displeased: "Why, do you think Xiaoman is not good enough for you?"
"I don't mean that." Chu Yu shook his head: "I still have a lot of things to do, and I don't want to get married so early."
"I didn't say I wanted you to get married just now, I just said I wanted you to get engaged."
Seeing Cao Xinghua frowning, Chu Yu felt that he had to say something at this time, otherwise things might get out of hand: "Old curator, although I was an orphan since I was a child, I have a sister who depends on each other and a woman who treats me like a child.
Dear Grandpa Zhang, I cannot have the final say on matters like engagement by myself."
"Besides, this is the second time I've met Cao Man today. If I agree hastily, wouldn't you think I'm an exaggeration?"
"Emotional matters can be cultivated slowly." Cao Xinghua said and looked at Chu Yu: "Since childhood, Xiaoman has been growing up under the protection of the Cao family and has never been wronged. Since she asked me to help with this, I naturally
I will give him a result." Cao Xinghua said and smiled, but the smile looked so sinister in Chu Yu's eyes: "I will publish a message soon, saying that the eldest lady of the Cao family has taken a liking to you.
I don’t think any woman from the China Alliance would dare to date you."
Seeing what Cao Xinghua said, Chu Yu smiled bitterly. He felt that everything he said seemed a bit pale and he chose to remain silent.
Sometimes silent resistance is even more unacceptable. However, after Chu Yu politely refused, Cao Xinghua was already prepared that Chu Yu would not be willing for the time being. Looking at Chu Yu, Cao Xinghua thought for a while: "I will give
You have time to think about it, but it won't be too long. Even if I snatch the man Xiaoman likes, I will help her get it back." After saying that, Cao Xinghua waved his hand: "I hope you can take care of yourself and don't let the Cao family wait too long, otherwise
After we become a family in the future, I'm afraid..." I'm afraid Cao Xinghua didn't say anything, he just said that you should go and do your work first.
Nodding, Chu Yu turned and walked towards the door. As soon as he put his hand on the door handle, Chu Yu thought of something and turned his head: "Old curator, if I convince Cao Man, will this matter be settled like this?"
"You convinced Cao Man? Let him give up on you?" As if he heard the extremely ridiculous words, Cao Xinghua smiled and nodded: "Okay, I want to see how you convince her."
"Chu Yu, feelings are not child's play. If you hurt Cao Man's heart, I guarantee that you will die alone."
Listening to Cao Xinghua's half-truth and half-false threats, Chu Yu said, "I understand." Then he opened the door and left Cao Xinghua's office. Chu Yu stood at the door and let out a long breath. Only then did he realize that he didn't know what to do.
At this time, a layer of sweat had broken out on his forehead. After looking around, Chu Yu didn't find Cao Man. Just when Chu Yu was about to go to Cao Man to make it clear, someone stood in Chu Yu's way.
Looking at the person in front of him, Chu Yu didn't recognize him. Because he was thinking about Cao Man, Chu Yu didn't say anything. When he took two steps to leave, someone grabbed his arm.
"Chu Yu, can you take a moment to say a few words?"
"Who are you?"
"Chen Buyi."
"Is the matter urgent?" Looking at the man in front of him, Chu Yu didn't recognize him, but from his last name, Chu Yu guessed that he had nothing to do with the five major families. He looked Chen Buyi up and down, and Chu Yu saw that he was wearing ordinary clothes.
, although the clothes were very clean, they were a bit old. Chu Yu, who felt that the visitor might be unkind, calmed down at this moment: "Tell me what it is first."
"I want to give it to you to a friend." After looking around, Chen Buyi said: "Like you, I am from the Chinese Alliance's Evernight City, but I am not as lucky as you. When I was young, my family wanted me to enter Chu City.
Family, due to physical reasons, I was eliminated when the Chu family chose to die, but I was not discouraged."
"I have been exercising my body since I was sensible. When I grew up, I bought some pirated CDs and watched the martial arts training videos of the five major families. Because I lived at the bottom and had no one to guide me, I took many detours in those years.
Later, I thought of a way." Chen Buyi said with a smile: "I started to participate in martial arts competitions in various cities in order to get real guidance from the judges and teachers."
"I don't remember how many times I have been beaten down by others." Chen Buyi looked at Chu Yu and smiled: "I have told you so much, I don't want you to sympathize or pity me.
I just want to tell you that I am standing here now and have put in a lot of hard work. Although my cultivation level is not high, I can get rid of the lowest level of life after graduating from Haoran College."
"So I came to you, hoping you could be friends with us."
"You?" Chu Yu was a little surprised, but he quickly said: "I don't think entering the Chu family is a lucky thing. In addition, the word friend needs time to test."
"Yes, we, maybe you have heard that there are some people in Haoran College who have climbed up from the bottom like me, and we have established a federation. I hope you can participate. As far as I know, Chu Xiaoshu
I have always wanted to cause trouble for you. After you join us, we can take care of each other if anything happens in the future, right?"
"I understand." Chu Yu nodded: "But I think..."
"You don't have to rush to reject me. I haven't finished speaking yet. Although we people live at the bottom, we are not useless. For example..." Chen Buyi said with a mysterious smile, looked at Chu Yu and lowered his voice and said:
"You know Ye Guanghao, right? I know where he is now."
