Chapter 283 I Don’t Want to Get Married at Present
Tang Ziyan is scolded by Tang Ming as soon as she gets home in the evening.
“Where have you been? You come back so late?”
“I went out to sea with my friends for a day!” Tang Ziyan doesn’t notice that Tang Ming’s expression is bad, and asks the house maid to prepare midnight snacks for her.
Tang Ming slams the cup on the table. “You only know how to play all day. You’re not a little girl any more. You should stay at home obediently lately.”
“Dad, what do you mean?” Tang Ziyan is not happy. “Oh, Tang Rui’s legs are broken and you are not happy. But why do you vent anger to me?”
“Do you still dare to talk back?” Tang Ming shivers with anger, and Tang Jie quickly winks at Tang Ziyan. “Dad, you don’t worry. Ziyan is still young. Besides, it’s normal for her to go out and play since she is still a young girl.”
Tang Ming snorts. “Normal? Look at Tang Duo. She is only two years older than you and has a son and a daughter.”
“Dad, you should compare me less with her!” Tang Ziyan shouts.
Tang Ming sneers. “Yes! You can’t compare with her.”
“Dad!” Tang Ziyan is also angry and jumps up to run out.
“Sit down!” Tang Ming asks Tang Jie to bring her back.
Tang Jie says in a low voice. “You should bear it. Father is in a bad mood because Tang Rui got such bad injuries.”
“Tang Rui deserved it.” Tang Ziyan whispers.
“What are you talking about?” Tang Ming looks at her grumpily. “This weekend I have arranged for you to have dinner with Mr. Chen’s son.”
Tang Ziyan has an inconceivable expression. “Who is Mr. Chen’s son? I don’t know him! I will not go.”
“You have to go if you don’t want to.” Tang Ming looks at her. “I’m not asking for your opinion.”
Then he swings his arms to go to the study. Tang Ziyan wants to chase him to continue arguing, but she is held by Tang Jie.
“Ziyan, don’t you understand?”
Tang Ziyan gets rid of his hand. “What should I understand?”
“Dad is right. You are not young and should get married. He will choose a suitable husband for you to match.”
“Ah...” Tang Ziyan sneers. “It sounds good, but isn’t it to get connections through marriage? Why should I listen to you? Why should I sacrifice my happiness?”
“Just because you are titled as Miss Tang, and because you have lived a more precious life than others for more than 20 years, and because you have spent more than others.” Tang Jie looks at her with undisguised sarcasm.
Tang Ziyan is dark-faced, but she is still unconvinced and says. “Tang Duo also has enjoyed those privileges! Why doesn’t she have to be used for getting connections through marriage?”
“If you are as capable as her, and can marry a husband like Lang Ruoxian back even with memory loss, dad will definitely not force you to get connections through marriage.” Tang Jie smiles. “Conduct yourself well, sister!”
Tang Ziyan regrets much. She regrets not having chosen a suitable man for herself earlier. She thinks over the people in this circle and finds that there are few who preserve their moral integrity. Thinking of Hua Zhong, she has always been very fond of Hua Zhong, but she knows that Hua Zhong doesn’t like her.
“Do you like Tang Duo so much?” Tang Ziyan doesn’t want to give up. She dates Hua Zhong and asks him for the last time. “You should give up. You and she are impossible in this life.”
Hua Zhong looks at her expressionlessly. “I don’t come to listen to your nonsense. Tell me what happened at that time.”
The woman called to say that there was a secret about Tang Duo’s skiing accident, so he came to keep the appointment. But he only hears her keep saying how many years she has been fond of him. Is she crazy?
“Don’t mention that woman!” Tang Ziyan shouts. “Don’t you have anything else to say except her?”
“Do I have anything to tell you?” Hua Zhong feels impatient and suspects that the woman lied. There was no secret at all, but she was only trying to cheat him out.
Sure enough, Tang Ziyan laughs. “Do you want to hear about Tang Duo? Then you will be disappointed. I lied to you. Otherwise, how could you agree to meet me?”
“Idiot.” Hua Zhong stands up to leave.
“Hua Zhong!” Tang Ziyan ignores to care about her face. Holding Hua Zhong’s arm, she says, “I have a suggestion that is good for both of us.”
Hua Zhong moves his arm but he cannot draw it back. In public, he bears not to lose his temper and turns to say. “Quickly say it. Don’t waste my time.”
“Let’s get connections through marriage!” Tang Ziyan smiles. “If we get married, both of our families will benefit. Don’t worry! I won’t intervene if you want to find other women after marriage, as long as we are husband and wife on the surface.”
Seeing Hua Zhong keep silence, Tang Ziyan has a bigger smile. “How about it? Is my suggestion very good? In this way, we don’t have to be forced into marriage by our families. To get connections with anyone through marriage is to get connections through marriage anyway. It is better to find a familiar person.”
“Are you mentally ill?” Hua Zhong regrets coming to meet the brainless woman. “First of all, I don’t need to get connections through marriage. Secondly, I don’t know you very well. Finally, don’t contact me in the future.”
Finishing saying so, he turns to leave. Tang Ziyan’s hand is scratched by his watch and her fingernails are split. Her tears drop because of pain.
“Hua Zhong! Hua Zhong!” She chases to the door and sees Hua Zhong drive away without turning back.
The places Tang Ziyan usually goes to are all high-ranking places, and this cafe is no exception. Naturally, there are many darling daughters and socialites. Some people see this scene without intention, and they post the pictures to the moments. Soon the whole circle knows that Tang Ziyan expressed love to Hua Zhong but was rejected.
“Bastard!” Tang Ming raises his hand and wants to slap Tang Ziyan, but he is held by Tang Jie.
“Dad, you don’t get angry first. I think that it won’t matter much for Ziyan having done so!” He glances at stubborn and rebellious Tang Ziyan. “It’s normal for a young girl to like someone. She expresses love and gives up forever.”
Tang Ming stands akimbo and points at Tang Ziyan to scold. “Have you given up? You’ve lost all your face. Obediently go the blind date tomorrow. If let me know you didn’t go...”
“I know. I’ll go!” Tang Ziyan yells, cries and runs upstairs.
Tang Jie helps Tang Ming to sit down. “Dad, why do you choose Chen Family? Aren’t they very close to the second branch?”
“Ah, when the old man of Chen Family was alive, he had a good relationship with your Second Grandpa. But he died years ago.” Tang Ming waves his hand. “Chen Family is a not a big family, and the family members never set foot in the military and political circles. But in those days, how many people did the old man of Chen Family save? Any one of those people can cause instability of Yanjing.”
Tang Jie heard about this when he was a child. It seemed that Chen Family members were landlords when the Cultural Revolution happened. They were officially denounced, but the old man of Chen Family and his father secretly hid a lot of land deeds and money.
And they secretly protected many denounced soldiers and scholars, and Second Grandpa of Tang Family was also saved by Chen Family. Later, most of those people were rehabilitated, and some who were not disabled and in good health were reinstated.
These people all remember the kindness of the old man of Chen Family, and their descendants also give face to Chen Family. Otherwise, how can a small Zhiwei Garden run successfully like sailing with the wind? Even Tang Rui doesn’t dare to go to Zhiwei Garden to make trouble.
Yes! Tang Ziyan will go on a blind date with Chen Xia.
“Miss Tang, you are half an hour late.” Chen Xia puts down the tea cup. “If you come later, you will not meet me.”
Tang Ziyan curls her lips and sits down, looking at the opposite man. She hasn’t contacted with Chen Xia, because Chen Xia stays out of this circle. It is said that he went abroad very early and was a famous architect in the world. Later, he went to teach in a university for some reason.
“You can’t blame me...” Tang Ziyan finds that Chen Xia is very good-looking. With glasses on, his temperament is as mild as jade. Her attitude is much better. “I’ve been looking for this place for a long time for you want to meet at the teahouse.”
Who will come to the teahouse for tea now? They are not elders.
“I didn’t expect you to be so young. At first I thought you were an old pedant.” Tang Ziyan looks at the tea cups on the table. There are some green tea leaves floating in the pale blue tea cups. She doesn’t know what kind of tea leaves they are, but the appearance is quite good.
“Is there only tea served?” No matter how good-looking it is, it is still tea. Tang Ziyan can’t get used to it.
Chen Xia looks at her calmly from beginning to end, neither happy nor angry. She can’t see what he is thinking.
“Tea houses naturally only have tea.” He is not going to introduce how expensive these tea leaves are. He is not going to cast pearls before swine.
Tang Ziyan curls her lips. “Don’t date me at a place like this next time. I don’t like it. How nice it will be to go to a cafe!”
“Don’t force yourself. There won’t be another time.” Chen Xia pours himself a cup of tea. “The reason why I have been waiting for you to come is to make it clear. Please tell your father that I have no plans to get married at present. Our Chen Family have accepted your family’s kindness.”
Tang Ziyan’s face turns pale. “What do you mean?”
“Am I not clear enough?” Chen Xia looks at her from beginning to end with plain eyes.
If Tang Ziyan did not understand what he said before, now she understands that he is clearly not interested in her.
“You!” Tang Ziyan is angry and wants to vomit blood. What the hell is it? Obviously she is unwilling. What qualification does he have to say he is unwilling?
She still wants to say something. But Chen Xia has already stood up. “I have explained clearly. I have classes in the afternoon and have to go first. Miss Tang, please help yourself.”
Seeing Chen Xia slowly leave, walk to the door and talk with the waitress wearing cheongsam. Tang Ziyan can’t endure it any longer and rushes to the door to stop the man.
“What makes you say those words? If those words have to be said, I will say it.”
Chen Xia is about to get into the car when he hears this. He frowns. “Do you want to repeat it and refuse me once?”
“No...” Tang Ziyan thinks why this person can’t understand what she said.
Chen Xia thinks for a moment. “Let’s make it another day. Let you refuse me once another day. But today is not okay because I have classes.” Having finished saying so, he pulls open the car door and gets into the car. He steps on the accelerator to drive away.
Tang Ziyan stamps her foot where she stands and angrily returns home. She is stopped by Tang Ming who is waiting in the sitting room.
“Why are you back so soon? What about your date? It is said that Chen Xia is a university teacher and has a good temper and personality, which is just suitable for your capricious and impulsive temper.”
Tang Ziyan was originally angry. Now she hears her father’s words and throws the handbag to the ground. “Dad, if you don’t want me, you just say directly. You don’t have to let an outsider insult me.”
“What did you say?” Tang Ming frowns. “When did I say that I didn’t want you?”
“Then why did you want me to date with Chen Xia? Do you know what he said? He said that he was not interested in me. Let me tell you that he will not get connections through marriage with our family!”
Tang Ming is shocked. “Did he really say that?”
“Can I make it up?” Tang Ziyan picks up the handbag and runs upstairs. “Don’t ask me to go on blind dates in the future. What a shame!”
Before entering the bedroom, her mobile phone rings.
“Hello, Brother Rui? Are your legs all right?”
