"Qingyu, how have you considered what I told you last time?"
After returning from the hot spring pool, He Qingyu was called to Su Ruicheng's study.
He sat on the leather seat, spoke calmly, and tapped the table with his fingers a few times.
"Uncle is talking about the marriage to the daughter of the Bai family?"
"Yes, you are a few years older than Mingxue, and it's time to start a family. The Bai family has a bigger fortune than our Su family. If you can marry the daughter of the Bai family, your journey will not be difficult."
"Then our Su family's business will still depend on you, but that's a lie. We are a family to begin with. After all, you have been in the Su family for so many years."
Su Ruicheng smiled and took a sip of tea. He believed that He Qingyu could understand what he said. He Qingyu was a smart man.
Why didn't He Qingyu know what Su Ruicheng meant? The Su family has raised him for so many years, and it's time to repay him.
As a child, he knew that he was living under someone else's roof and had to be obedient.
But he couldn't compromise on this matter.
"I have not forgotten the kindness of the Su family, but I will only marry the person I like, and I will do my best to repay the Su family in other ways."
The smile on Su Ruicheng's face became thicker, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"Qingyu, you are still young. Some people are born in Rome, so they can create miracles. But some people are destined to achieve nothing. It is not that they have no strength, but that they were not born in Rome and have no luck."
"What you bring to the Su family now is all given by the Su family."
The implication is that without the Su family, He Qingyu is nothing.
He Qingyu did not refute, but said solemnly:
"Uncle, give me a little more time to think about it."
He can refuse, but he can't leave the Su family yet. He suspected that his father's death was related to Su Ruicheng.
"Three days, no more."
Su Ruicheng took a sip of tea. He needs this marriage to reach an agreement with the Bai family.
Su Mingxue, who was listening behind the door, remembered that the daughter of the Bai family was the heroine. It was at this time that He Qingyu entered into a contract marriage with her, and they fell in love for a long time.
This wouldn't work. She had to determine whether He Qingyu was the protagonist who had gone bad before she could let him meet the heroine.
She wants to stop this marriage.
Su Mingxue rushed in with anger on her face and shouted:
"Don't think about it! Brother can't marry anyone else!"
He Qingyu and Su Ruicheng were both startled and turned to look at her.
Su Mingxue was wearing a colorful bathrobe, her wet hair was still dripping with water, and her fair cheeks were flushed with anger. The eyes are also extremely bright.
"Don't get involved in adult matters. Go back and dry your hair. Be careful of catching a cold."
Su Ruicheng faced Su Mingxue, his tone was calmer, but there was no doubt.
Su Mingxue stepped forward, glanced at He Qingyu, and then at Su Ruicheng, showing her usual eccentricity.
"Dad, you clearly know that I like my brother, why do you want your brother to marry someone else! I won't allow it!"
"You like your brother, does your brother like you? He is so old and shameless. Qingyu has been in our family for so many years, how can I still hurt him?"
The fact that He Qingyu didn't like her was made clear. Su Mingxue's high aura just now suddenly dropped. The beautiful eyes dimmed.
He Qingyu looked at her lonely expression and pursed his pale lips. But thinking of Su Mingxue's behavior in the hot spring pool just now, her forehead twitched again.
Su Mingxue quickly cheered up again, "Even if my brother doesn't like me, I still have to find someone to marry. I like my brother and I can't watch him jump into the fire pit!"
"Anyway, you are not allowed to let your brother marry anyone else, or I will die in front of you!"
There was a stubborn expression on her face, and she looked very willful and pretty.
Su Ruicheng didn't take it seriously and thought she was acting like a child.
"Don't be ridiculous. You are still young and don't understand this. Someone, please take the lady back to the room."
————
"Miss, you haven't eaten for a day. Eat something quickly."
He Qingyu stood outside Su Mingxue's door and frowned slightly when he heard the housekeeper's anxious and helpless voice.
Su Mingxue really went on a hunger strike because of his marriage.
Su Ruicheng asked him to come over and persuade Su Mingxue.
He originally just wanted to show off and go back.
Now the doorbell rings unexpectedly.
"Master He, you are finally here. Please persuade the young lady, otherwise you will starve your body. The young lady will listen to you the most."
After opening the door, Jiang Xu saw him as if he were a savior.
He nodded indifferently, "You go out first."
"yes."
Jiang Xu wiped his sweat with a handkerchief and quickly exited.
It’s so hard to tell lies with open eyes.
He was just wiping the pastry from the eldest lady's mouth.
When He Qingyu came in, he saw Su Mingxue bending her knees and leaning on the bed, her face as pale as snow, resting on her arms, crying so hard.
Like a poor fox cub.
Hearing his footsteps, Su Mingxue raised her head, wiped away her tears as if she was a little embarrassed, and whispered "Brother." Then she lowered her head.
"Brother, I will tell dad again and won't let you marry anyone else."
"Even if someone sacrifices for the Su family, the marriage partner should be me. Not my brother."
"Have a meal."
He didn't say anything, walked to the bed and sat down, his tone still commanding.
Su Mingxue sniffed, her voice was irritating.
"I do not want to eat."
He Qingyu's expression condensed.
"Do you want me to hold you in my lap and spank you like a child to make you obedient?"
Su Mingxue's face turned red.
