Chapter 817: Chapter 817: The Key Depends on Whether Rong Yan Can Withstand the Pressure
Shengxiao had to withstand the pressure if he wanted to be with Rong Yan.
The most important thing was to clarify whether Rong Yan also had this determination; otherwise, if Rong Yan backed out halfway, it was Shengxiao who would be left in trouble.
Li Shengxiao’s gaze swept over the wristwatch on his wrist and his thin lips curved slightly, his handsome face extremely confident, “I know, I won’t let them touch Rong Yan!”
The focus was not the Chu Family, but Rong Yan’s attitude! Whether Rong Yan could withstand the pressure! Cui Jiangjing wanted to say this, but he felt it was hard and thankless, “Forget it. You decide for yourself. I called just to tell you who Miss Chu is. Since you know, I won’t waste words, you should rest early.”
Cui Jiangjing said, “I’ll have time this weekend to visit Mrs. Lin and my little nephew. I saw a nice game console on a business trip abroad and brought one back for him.”
Whether Little Baby liked it or not was one thing; Mrs. Lin would definitely like it. Once Mrs. Lin was happy, of course, he wouldn’t be making the trip for nothing~
Cui Jiangjing had his calculations clear, “I’ll bring it over then. The little nephew is staying at the old house, right?”
“For now, it’s best to call before you come,” Li Shengxiao perceived the enthusiasm in his voice and knew what he was planning, stretching his hand to pinch his nose.
Cui Jiangjing hurriedly agreed, “OK, I’ll call Mrs. Lin before I come to confirm.”
Before he achieved his goal to hang up, Li Shengxiao cut him off, “By the way, your mother approached me recently, asking me to help matchmake you and Siyuan. What do you think?”
Matchmaking him and Siyuan, had his mother hit her head! Could she not see that Shen Siyuan was interested in Shengxiao, yet she went to Shengxiao to matchmake them.
He sighed deeply, all his internal turmoil tangled up, “How can I see it? I just see it with open eyes!”
Though he said so, he quickly added, “Don’t worry about my mom, I have no romantic feelings for Siyuan. In my eyes, she’s just a sister I grew up with! How could I marry my own sister? That would be sick!”
Even if Shen Siyuan didn’t like Shengxiao, he couldn’t possibly develop a romantic relationship with her either, no matter how indiscriminate he was, he could not imagine the scenario of sleeping with his sister.
He guessed he wouldn’t be able to perform.
Moreover, he knew Siyuan had tried to drug Shengxiao in water and stripped herself, which made it even less possible for him to develop anything with her.
“My mom must be confused, probably stressed again, pestering me to go on blind dates every day. I’ve rejected all the women she arranged, she probably couldn’t find a suitable candidate and hence turned her attention to Siyuan. Don’t worry, I’ll talk to her when I get back, tell her to stop making a fuss. Lest Shen Yi finds out and causes trouble for me.”
Shen Yi had only one sister and cherished Shen Siyuan deeply; he was a good brother. But as good as a brother he was, he had no interest in Shen Siyuan.
Li Shengxiao understood his meaning and reminded him, “You’re not getting any younger, it’s about time you settle down properly, so your family won’t keep pushing you.”
“Those words seem to be what I used to say to you, telling you not to think about work all day, to relax a bit with a romance. Look at you, turning around and tricking Rong Yan into a secret marriage, and now you’re preaching to me.” He felt utterly distressed, complaining before speaking, “I’m interested in someone now, I’ll bring her out to meet you all once I win her over.”
