Chapter 1701 Return to Duan's House and Confess

Chapter 1800 Return to Duan’s house to confess

Duan Shuxian's pretty face immediately blushed, even redder than the distant glow, and her breath was filled with his refreshing and charming masculine scent.

And the fabric on his body was so comfortable that even if her face bumped into it, it didn't hurt.

"Are your feet sprained?" Xi Jingchen asked with concern.

"No." Duan Shuxian shook her head.

"It's getting darker and darker, let's go have dinner!" Xi Jingchen said and took her back.

Duan Shuxian followed him, feeling his domineering and gentle side, and her heart felt sweet.

Some things can only be cherished after experiencing loss! She thought that she would never let go of his hand foolishly again. As long as he would still hold her, she would be held by him throughout this journey. lifetime.

The dinner was very rich, and the ingredients here were all the best. The exquisite and delicious dinner made Duan Shuxian very full, and the time passed by unknowingly.

Xi Jingchen personally drove her back to the gate of the community, and asked his bodyguards to escort her upstairs.

As soon as Duan Shuxian returned home, Duan Deming and Li Yu were both in the hall. Duan Shuxian received the looking eyes of her parents, and her pretty face felt slightly hot.

"How was dinner? Is it delicious?" Li Yu asked with a smile, relieving her daughter's embarrassment.

"Ah, very good."

"I bought you some fruit. Let's take it into the room and eat it!" Li Yu said again.

When Duan Deming was about to enter the room, he said, "Your mother and I will discuss the family dinner tomorrow night and tell your grandfather and uncle about your affairs."

Duan Shuxian's body immediately froze for a few seconds. She was still a little stressed about this matter.

"Don't worry! I'll talk to your father." Li Yu comforted.

"Thank you, parents." Duan Shuxian turned around and smiled gratefully.

Duan Deming saw his daughter happy, and he sighed, wondering if his previous stubborn idea was really wrong?

Early the next morning, Duan Shuxian went to work. Her face was filled with an aura of love, and she was even full of energy at work.

When Duan Shuxian was in the afternoon, she was a little worried about going to Duan's house for dinner in the evening.

But she still had to face what she had to face. There was no escaping this matter.

She told her father that she had gone to Duan's house after work.

Because Duan Shuxian got off work at half past five, Duan Shuxian didn't want to miss the Duan family's dinner.

Duan Deming and his wife came first, and Li Yu held a bouquet of fresh flowers and gave it to Song Meilan.

The flower arrangements in the vases at Song Meilan's home were always provided free of charge by Li Yu, and over time, Song Meilan became accustomed to accepting the bouquets from her every day.

Tonight, Song Meilan continued to praise the beautiful flowers Li Yu picked. She could finally put fresh flowers in the vase she had emptied.

"Sister-in-law, how's Minmin doing lately?" Li Yu inquired.

"She's been quite busy lately! She's always on business trips and going abroad to participate in exchange meetings with various countries. Anyway! She just can't take any time off." When Song Meilan mentioned her daughter, she always had an inexplicable sense of superiority.

And she also knew that Li Yu had to envy her, because her daughter was not as good as her daughter. This was an indisputable fact.

"Yes! Minmin is great!" Li Yu nodded.

"How's Shu Xian doing at the museum lately?"

"She is also very busy at work. She received a foreign mission two days ago and was very busy."

"What? Shu Xian is so capable! Can she receive foreign missions? She shouldn't be the main commentator, right?" Song Meilan asked immediately, knowing in her heart that Duan Shuxian did not have such ability.

Li Yu smiled and said, "She just came in and is not proficient in all aspects of business. Naturally, she is not the main explainer. She just went to say hello."

This was also what Song Meilan expected. He laughed and said words of encouragement, "It's okay, there is always a chance. Shu Xian is still young!"

"I hope she can find someone to marry safely." Li Yu said with a smile.

Regarding this point, Duan Shumin was a little older, and Song Meilan couldn't help but think of her daughter's marriage. After the last time at the Gejun Mansion, there was no follow-up.

But she believes her daughter still has a chance.

"Yes, Shu Xian is not as busy as Shu Min. It would be good to find a good family to marry! My Minmin's work is so important that she doesn't even have time to talk about relationships now! Alas!" Song Meilan read between the lines, I always have to mention Duan Shumin’s excellence.

Even if she is not married now, it is because she is too good at work.

Li Yu smiled and said nothing. She has always been a person who neither fights nor robs. But this time, she knew that her daughter would compete with her, so she didn't want to mention it.

"Minmin will be back for dinner soon!"

"Yes, she hasn't been back for a long time. She just finished a meeting! She was even on the news last night!"

Li Yu smiled and helped arrange flowers for her.

Duan Shuxian's car drove into the door of Duan's house. Just when she was about to turn, another white luxury car squeezed her faster. It was Duan Shumin's car. She recognized Duan Shuxian's car.

I deliberately stole her way when I came in just now.

Duan Shuxian almost hit the back of her car just now. Fortunately, she reacted quickly. Looking at the car that was a bit arrogant and trying to get in the way, she breathed a sigh of relief. Now Duan Shumin was deliberately trying to fight against her in many places.

As soon as Duan Shuxian's car stopped, she saw Duan Shumin getting out of her driver's seat. She was carrying a briefcase. When passing by her, she said without sincerity, "I'm sorry just now! I didn't see it." It's your car."

Duan Shuxian knew it was her intention, so she said generously, "It's okay."

Duan Shumin turned to look at her, looking at Duan Shuxian who was also wearing a skirt. The dark blue suit made Duan Shuxian look much more mature. Even in uniform, her beautiful temperament was not inferior to hers.

This made Duan Shumin always have a sense of superiority about her figure, but looking at the younger Duan Shuxian, the aura between a girl and a woman, she no longer has the sweetness of a young girl.

Duan Shuxian was being looked at by her, and she couldn't help but take the lead in walking toward the hall. Duan Shumin couldn't help but step forward, as if it was another competition.

She walked into the hall faster than Duan Shuxian and greeted her grandfather on the sofa first.

"Grandpa, I'm back."

Mr. Duan looked at his eldest granddaughter with distress in his eyes, "Aren't you tired from this business trip? Put down your bag and rest!"

"Fortunately, I'm not too tired. I just went on a business trip to more than a dozen countries." After Duan Shumin finished speaking, he sat next to his grandfather, "Grandpa, do you want me to tell you about my business trip?"

"Okay! Grandpa was just wondering!"

At this moment, Duan Shuxian also walked in and called Mr. Duan, "Grandpa."

"Shu Xian, you're here too! Come, sit down and listen to your sister Min's interesting stories."

Mr. Duan greeted her.

Little did he know that his two granddaughters were no longer as close as before.

"I'm going to see if my mother can help." Duan Shuxian smiled and walked towards the side hall.

Duan Shumin glanced at her, and the corner of her mouth curled up. As the Duan family's first favorite, there was no way Duan Shuxian could take her away.

Duan Shuxian walked to the side hall and met Song Meilan. She called out, "Auntie."

"Hey! Shu Xian is here." Song Meilan responded with a smile. When she heard her daughter's voice, she hurried out to see her daughter.

Duan Shuxian walked to her mother's side. Li Yu was pruning flower branches and had two vases to insert.

Duan Shuxian sat down and helped her arrange the flower branches. Li Yu looked at her with a distressed look, "Is grandpa chatting with Minmin again?"

"Well, maybe grandpa likes to hear stories about her business trip." Duan Shuxian nodded.

Li Yu comforted her, "It's okay, you don't need to take it personally."

"Mom, you send so many flowers to my aunt every day, she should really thank you!" Duan Shuxian also felt wronged for her mother, because she could see that her aunt did not treat her mother equally even though her mother had spent so many years sending flowers.

"There are a lot of flowers left in the store every night, it's nothing!" Li Yu smiled.

Duan Shuxian sighed and said nothing. She knew that her mother didn't want to care about anything.

"When I talk to your dad about you later, you have to keep your temper. Even if Min Min is arguing with you, you have to keep your temper."

"I know, I'm mentally prepared." Duan Shuxian nodded.

At dinner time, Duan Siye, the eldest son of the Duan family, did not come back. The atmosphere at the dinner table was as usual. Song Meilan was introducing the dishes on the table and the ingredients. In short, these were all bought by her at a large price.

This is what she likes to do the most. She also has a son who gives her a lot of pocket money every month, so she always spends money according to her temperament and preferences. Opposite Duan Shumin continued to discuss work matters with her grandfather. She had met people from all over the world. This was something Duan Shumin rarely did before. However, since she learned that Duan Shuxian was dating Xi Jingchen, she began to clearly prove that she

status in this family.

In the past, Duan Shuxian was not worthy of her showing off, but now Duan Shuxian could only prove that she was better by showing off her work.

"Deming, why don't you and your family talk to each other? Let's talk about your recent situation!" Duan Deliang asked his younger brother.

Duan Deliang occupies a high position, so naturally he is very magnanimous in his words and deeds, and he and Duan Deliang are blood relatives. No matter what he does, he will never look down on his younger brother and his family.

Duan Deming and his wife looked at each other. Both couples glanced at Duan Shuxian, who was dining quietly next to them, and decided to start mentioning this matter.

This matter had to be brought up by Duan Deming. He said calmly, "Dad, brother, sister-in-law, there is something I want to tell you."

Song Meilan was listening to her daughter talk about the outside world, and couldn't help but turn her head and look over, "Oh! What's going on! It's so mysterious."

Mr. Duan also looked up. Seeing his second son's serious expression, it was probably not a trivial matter.

But none of them could guess what he was going to say, because nothing happened recently.

"Tell me, have you encountered any difficulties?" Mr. Duan asked his second son.

"No, Dad, I want to say it is a great joy." Duan Deming replied.

Song Meilan is a woman, so she is more sensitive. She quickly asked, "Is Shu Xian dating a boyfriend? Planning to get engaged?"

Duan Shumin, who was opposite, immediately stared over, looking at Duan Shuxian with complicated eyes. She hoped that just like her mother said, she had a normal boyfriend and was about to get engaged, so that the pressure in her heart would disappear. .

As long as she gets married, she will have no chance with Xi Jingchen in this life. No matter how much Xi Jingchen is short of women, he will not go to see the last married woman!

Li Yu on the side smiled and said, "Shu Xian just has a boyfriend, but she hasn't gotten engaged yet."

"Oh! Who is this person? What does he do?" Song Meilan couldn't wait to know.

Li Deliang also laughed, "This is indeed a good thing! Our Duan family has not had any happy events for a long time. We originally hoped that Si Ye would get married quickly! But he is not in a hurry now."

Mr. Duan was also happy, "It's not a bad thing for girls to get married early."

Duan Shumin opposite could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. She concluded that the men Duan Shuxian dated must be ordinary, because in her life circle, she could not meet anyone higher up.

Moreover, since it will be announced at the dinner table, at least it is a stable relationship.

"Shu Xian, congratulations!" Duan Shumin said to her, saying that she was also happy to see such a thing happen.

Duan Shuxian's pretty face was a little red at the moment. She still couldn't calm down when she said such a thing in front of her elders. When she heard Duan Shumin's words, she was a little surprised.

But soon, she guessed that this cousin must have thought that she had another boyfriend.

Song Meilan, who was opposite, couldn't wait, "Oh! Brothers and sisters, please tell us! What does Shu Xian's boyfriend do? Where is he from? How did we meet him?"

Maybe women have such a gossipy heart! Song Meilan wanted to determine one thing more: what kind of person Duan Shuxian would marry, which also meant what kind of life Li Yu would lead in the future.

Duan Deming smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who the other party is, the important thing is to treat Shu Xian well! What we look at is character, regardless of family background."

"How can that be done? You only have Shu Xian, how can you do it without looking at family background? Our family background is not bad, so we can't marry someone who is too bad!" Song Meilan pretended to be her kind-hearted persuasion here.

Mr. Duan also nodded and said, "Yes, the daughter of our Duan family cannot marry poorly."

"As long as my cousin is happy, we don't need to interfere too much." Duan Shumin said, she didn't want her mother and grandfather to mess up Duan Shuxian's relationship.

"Yes, Sister Min is right, no matter who I marry, as long as I feel happy." Duan Shuxian pursed her lips and smiled.

Duan Shumin couldn't help but stare at her strangely. She couldn't figure out what Duan Shuxian meant by agreeing with her.

"Then tell me about the man quickly!" Song Meilan had been suppressing it for too long, so she asked quickly.

"As for the man, sister-in-law, you should have met him." Duan Deming was also thinking about how to say it so that his elder brother and sister-in-law would not be more accepting.

Song Meilan was stunned for a few seconds. She immediately thought, "Have I seen it? When have I seen it? I don't think I have seen any young boys recently!"

"It's not like I've seen him recently, it was last year." Li Yu mentioned. Duan Shuxian couldn't speak directly when she saw her parents. She suddenly thought of Xi Jingchen's words, telling her not to hide it in front of the family. Sooner or later, he would show up. Besides, they were talking openly about love. They didn't interfere with anyone, so there was nothing they couldn't say loudly.

What he said? "His name is Xi Jingchen." Duan Shuxian suddenly said it loudly.

This made everyone at the table who was eating look at her. Duan Shumin's hand holding the cup was trembling slightly. Her heart was suffocated. After taking a few deep breaths, she said sharply: , "Impossible, how can you still be together?"

Song Meilan's expression was also very rich. She had always wanted to know the man's family background just now. Now that she knew it, she discovered that Duan Shuxian's boyfriend turned out to be your son.

Mr. Duan was also surprised, "What? Shu Xian, your boyfriend's name is Xi Jingchen? Is he your son?"

Duan Deming, who was standing next to him, said to his father, "Yes, dad, he is your son." "Didn't he be with Minmin?" Mr. Duan asked again, because Song Meilan had been talking at home before, which led him to think that Duan Shumin's Xi Jingchen Have dated. Duan Deliang's face also showed some shock and astonishment, it turned out to be your Excellency's

Son, but no matter what, he felt good in his heart.

"This is really a happy event." Duan Deliang said sincerely. "Husband, what a happy event this is! It was obviously Minmin who dated the young master of the Xi family first, so why did Shu Xian suddenly become his girlfriend? What kind of thing is this!" Song Meilan's thoughts were changing over and over again. Everyone feels that this incident is Duan Shuxian’s fault.

.

How could you so openly steal the man your daughter likes?

"Sister-in-law, how do you say this? Shu Xian and Master Xi met in school. At that time, you had not taken Minmin to the Gejun Mansion for a blind date!" Li Yu said calmly to Song Meilan.

Song Meilan's expression changed at this moment, and she was very ugly. She glared at Duan Shuxian, "There are so many outstanding boys in the world, why do you only choose the one Minmin likes?"

Duan Shumin stood up suddenly. She looked at Duan Shuxian with red eyes in anger, "You promised me that you would leave him, why did you go back on your word?"

Duan Shuxian also stood up. She looked at Duan Shumin and said, "I didn't promise you, and there is no need to promise you. I said that the reason why I chose to leave him was because I unilaterally believed that I was not worthy of him and you. It doesn't matter."

"Minmin, what did you say? Did you already know that she was snatching the seat from the young master? Why didn't you tell her earlier? When did it happen?" Song Meilan asked her daughter anxiously.

Old Master Duan was also stunned. He never expected that one day, both granddaughters would fall in love with the same man at the same time.

Duan Deliang didn't know how to persuade his daughter and wife. Duan Shumin's grievances seemed to suddenly come out. She gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, she stole him. That day, I told her in the room the true identity of Xi Jingchen, but not long after, I went to school and found them kissing each other.

Do you think this counts as stealing?"

Duan Shuxian slightly widened her eyes. She had said this a long time ago. She knew Xi Jingchen earlier than her, and even if she knew his identity, it was earlier than she said. "Minmin, what you said is wrong. What do you mean Shuxian stole him? She and Master Xi knew each other earlier in school. At that time, we didn't know that you had a blind date with him! Besides, Master Xi is your son. Doesn't he have the right to choose? They are in a relationship of mutual affection."
