Zhai Jing was sincere when he said that, and so was Grandpa Le. However, Le Yan, who was standing behind them, pouted and cursed in her heart.
Le Yan didn’t expect that Zhai Jing, who was unattainable in her heart and seemed to be above the common populace, would actually put down his status and become so arrogant to please someone.
This made Le Yan feel as if her idol’s filter was broken, and at the same time, she felt bitter for the fact that he had bowed down for Le Wan.
Because Fu Sui would never do anything for a cold and aloof person like Zhai Jing.
This gap in understanding made le Yan feel even more uncomfortable, so she was a little absent-minded throughout the dinner. She didn’t notice that Fu Sui, who was beside her, was also absent-minded.
Coming out of the Le family, Fu Sui took a look at the glorious Le family’s old house.
After tonight’s incident, he knew very well that the Le family’s glory could continue because of the Le family’s first branch, but the Le family’s second branch obviously couldn’t support this dignity.
Therefore, when Mother Fu asked him to accompany a girl to an exhibition this weekend, Fu Sui was silent for a while, but he didn’t refuse.
After hearing his reply, Father Fu raised his eyebrows in surprise.
“I thought you’d last longer.”
Fu Sui pursed his lips and didn’t speak.
It had been a long time since he and Zhai Jing met each other before the dinner party tonight. Compared to the poor Zhai Jing in the past, he was obviously more confident and at ease now. This was the confidence that his success in his career gave him.
This made Fu Sui’s sense of belief and superiority, which had been brought to him since he was born, suffer another heavy blow. Especially when the two of them were standing on the same track, but Zhai Jing had directly left him behind, the gap was even more obvious.
Fu Sui realized that he couldn’t just be immersed in love. He had to become stronger as soon as possible.
He had a premonition that if he couldn’t do it, then he would lose everything he had very soon.
Mr. Fu only wanted results and didn’t care about his son’s emotional journey.
“This Ms. He you’re meeting might not be as outstanding on the outside, but her father has enough power. It’ll be very helpful in the project approval that we’re going to carry out.”
Fu Sui’s hands in his pockets clenched into fists.
Even if he had broken away from the marriage with the Le family and ended the life that had made him feel humiliated for the past few years, in his father’s eyes, his value was still only in the marriage.
Fu Sui agreed on the surface, but he swore in his heart,
Just wait and see, I wouldn’t be at the mercy of others for my entire life!
At this time, Le Yan, who was still immersed in the unfair feelings of the world, didn’t realize that her boyfriend was about to be stolen. Fu Sui, who she believed would always like her, had also begun to change his attitude.
However, these things had nothing to do with Le Wan. After the banquet, she sent Zhai Jing out.
“I’m sorry. Did what happened today scare you?”
Zhai Jing shook his head.
“I’m not a three-year-old child. Such a small matter can’t scare me.”
Le Wan smiled bitterly.
“Outsiders think that we are rich and powerful and that we don’t have to worry about food and clothes. We should be living a comfortable life. But they don’t know that there is no real paradise in this world.”
In fact, in the face of such huge benefits, it would only lead to more disputes.
“Although the people of the second branch are indeed very annoying, and because of the simple concept of the previous two generations, Grandpa and Grandma le want the family to be harmonious and everything to be prosperous, so they inevitably like to be muddled, but their love for you is beyond doubt. And your parents, brothers, they all plan for you wholeheartedly.”
This made Zhai Jing, who had been living together with his mother since young, very envious. Even if you were quarreling, someone had to quarrel with you before you could quarrel.
Seeing the envy in his eyes, Le Wan suddenly laughed.
“Maybe you’re right.”
There was nothing in the world that was perfect. To have a few of them was already luckier than most people in the world.
In the end, Le Wan confirmed with Zhai Jing again.
“Are you sure you can free up some time?”
At the dinner table earlier, Papa Le suddenly suggested that they take advantage of the time after Le Wan’s college entrance examination to go on the graduation trip that they had discussed earlier. He also invited Zhai Jing to go with them.
Zhai Jing thought for a while and agreed.
