Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The private room was silent.
Tao Yuxuan snorted. “Jun Cheng, since you have someone you like, why didn’t you tell us sooner or later? Why did you have to hang around our family for so long before telling us? Are you playing with us?”
Father Tao pursed his lips, his eyes filled with anger.
This marriage was originally a matter of the Tao family climbing up the social ladder.
However, the Jun family clearly had the intention to do so. They had given him a ladder, and he was in a hurry to climb it.
He had already climbed to the top, but the ladder was pulled out.
Father Tao did not have a good temper. He suppressed his anger and asked, “Aunt Jun, your grandson’s sweetheart hasn’t died yet, and you’re already setting him up for a blind date?”
The father and daughter didn’t have good temperaments.
Father Tao’s’ ‘noble grandson’ was said very quickly, sounding like a turtle grandson.
If he didn’t have a favor to ask, he would probably have already started cursing.
Old Madam Jun was sizing Ning Yu up. When she heard the Tao family’s words, she said lightly, “The child has his own thoughts. As an elder, 1 can’t control him.”
She was going to directly deny it.
Madam Jun pulled herself away from the joy of her son liking women and said, “Mr. Tao, matchmaking is a matter of mutual consent. Since the children are unwilling, let’s make friends.”
“I don’t lack friends,” Tao Yuxuan said sarcastically. “Looking at Young Master Jun, he doesn’t lack boyfriends or girlfriends, right?”
The moment she opened her mouth, she retorted.
Father Shi coughed and continued to smooth things over. “Even if we can’t become in-laws, there’s no need to become enemies.”
“Aunt Jun, please speak up for the Tao family. Let’s form a good relationship. It’s good for you and them.”
Old Madam Jun raised her eyelids and said lightly, “I will consider it.”
Tao Yuxuan rolled her eyes. “If you can’t do it, then so be it. Why are you still considering it? Why are you pretending to be a good person?”
“Our family’s machines will lose hundreds of thousands of yuan if they stop working for a day. We can’t afford to waste it on you! Dad, let’s go!”
Father Tao was thinking the same thing.
If the Jun family was willing to help, they would have done so long ago.
The Tao family was about to go bankrupt, so what was the point of helping them?
This was simply pushing them down!
When Father Shi saw that he was about to leave, he stood up and stopped Father Tao. “We have something to discuss. Don’t leave.”
The Jun family had always been high and mighty, and they listened to others’ flattery. At this moment, when they heard the Tao father and daughter’s strange tone, their expressions became a little uncomfortable.
“I didn’t expect Miss Tao to have such a fierce personality. Usually, when you see us, you are gentle and magnanimous. It’s all an act, right?” Madam Jun wasn’t afraid of falling out with them, and said, “Fortunately, she didn’t enter our Jun family.”
Tao Yuxuan had never lost in terms of eloquence. “No matter how shrewish 1 am, didn’t you still beg me to be your daughter-in-law? Who do you think is willing to marry into the Jun family?”
“You!” Madam Jun was at a loss for words. She looked at Tao Yuxuan and was so angry that she couldn’t speak.
“Since the Tao family doesn’t need my help, I’m happy to be at peace,” Old Madam Jun said calmly.
Madam Jun laughed and said to Tao Yuxuan, “Miss Tao, my driver just got divorced. If your family goes bankrupt and you can’t get married, I can introduce you to someone.”
“Although he’s almost fifty years old, he’s older and knows how to dote on people.”
Tao Yuxuan continued to poke at Madam Jun’s sore spot. “Let him dote on your son!”
Jun Cheng was speechless.
Madam Jun snorted. “When the Tao family goes bankrupt, I’ll see if you can still be arrogant!”
Father Shi sighed.
How did a good meal end up like this?
Father Tao was about to leave with Tao Yuxuan.
Madam Jun looked at Ning Yu and asked, “Ning Yu, how did you meet my Cheng’er?”
