Chapter 360 Mom, Give Up
The Qu family is a relatively large family. Old Master Qu has three sons and two daughters.
After these children started their own families, they also had their own children.
Now their children have grown up, some are married, and some are still single.
As soon as the Chinese New Year arrives, all these people come to pay their New Year's greetings to the old man.
This does not include Old Master Qu’s brothers and sisters. If they were all counted, there would be even more.
Now that these people are gathered together, the whole living room is very lively.
Yuan Shenghe and Ji Yu walked in, and the sounds of adults chatting and children making noises quieted down a bit.
"It's Sheng He. Have you gone to see the old man?" A beautiful middle-aged woman asked with a smile when she saw him. She was Qu Zuo's mother, Wang Meiling, a lady from a prominent family.
Yuan Shenghe nodded: "Aunt Qu, I've met him. I'm looking for Wen Lun. Where is he now?"
"No hurry. Would you like to introduce this person to me?" Wang Meiling smiled and shifted her gaze to Ji Yu.
Many people in the living room were also looking at Ji Yu. They had heard of his name before, but this was the first time they met him officially.
They were all very curious about Yuan Shenghe's partner.
Now that I have finally seen her in person, I am amazed at how beautiful and exquisite she is at first sight. No wonder she could have fascinated Yuan Shenghe.
"Mom, he is Ji Yu, didn't you already know that?"
Qu Zuo and his father walked in and just heard what Wang Meiling said.
"Now that you've met the real person, you can give up now."
"What do you mean by giving up? Don't say that. Xiao Ji might misunderstand you." Wang Meiling said that smoothly.
Ji Yu just smiled and said nothing, but he was still somewhat sensitive to other people's gazes. After coming in, he noticed that two pairs of eyes were looking at him in a rather obscure way.
I glanced over and saw that they were a man and a woman. Their clothes were not as luxurious as the other men and women in the living room, but relatively simple.
Their family background is obviously not as good as the Qu family's, but it should not be much different.
The woman had a beautiful necklace around her neck, two beautiful diamond earrings, and an emerald ring on the ring finger of her left hand.
The man was much simpler, wearing just a simple suit.
Ji Yu immediately understood who these two people were and calmly withdrew his gaze.
With Qu Zuo's help, they quickly went upstairs and finally didn't have to be treated like animals.
"My mother likes Sheng He very much. She always says that it would be great if Sheng He was her son. That's why she always wanted to introduce him to a girl. I have no other intentions." Qu Zuo explained as he walked.
"I know." Ji Yu didn't really take it to heart.
"how do you know?"
Ji Yu shrugged: "You can guess it. Yuan Shenghe is so outstanding. Which mother-in-law doesn't want him to be her son-in-law? Don't you have anyone to introduce you to someone?"
Qu Zuo felt like an arrow hit his chest, "Of course."
"Just not as popular as Yuan Shenghe?"
This time, the sword on his chest was replaced by a knife. Qu Zuo said to Yuan Shenghe, "Take care of your family. Is there anyone who is so hurtful?"
"I can't control him. As long as he is happy, that's enough." Yuan Shenghe looked helpless.
"I knew you would forget your friendship when you saw a beautiful woman. I didn't expect you to be that kind of person."
"Then find one as soon as possible. I don't mind if you forget your brothers too."
"you!"
Everyone seemed to hear Qu Zuo being stabbed in the chest again, and they all laughed.
Qu Zuo's elder brother is in the study upstairs.
In addition to reminiscing about the past, Yuan Shenghe also talked about the recent situation when he saw him.
"Don't you think it's really boring to chat with these two workaholics? Often after a few words, they start talking about the current situation and official business."
As Qu Zuo came from a military background, he was not interested in these things.
"This is your first time here, how about I show you around?"
Ji Yu looked at Yuan Shenghe who was chatting, and Yuan Shenghe was obviously paying attention to him.
"Then you should go with him. The study room will indeed be rather stuffy."
"Okay, then you guys chat slowly, I'll go out for a walk with him."
After the two of them left, Qu Wenlun teased, "Why do you protect your partner like your own eyeball?"
"If it was in Yunhai City, I wouldn't have to worry so much."
Yunhai City is his territory, Yuan Shenghe doesn't need to worry too much.
"That's true. The situation here is quite complicated, and there are people who are eyeing you covetously," said Qu Wenlun.
"I heard that you have two Han family antiques in your hands. The Han family will come to you sooner or later."
When mentioning the Han family, Yuan Shaohe's eyes deepened a little, "I asked you to help investigate some things last time, how is the investigation going now?"
"I have some clues. It is indeed a bit strange, but the time is too short. I need to check for more details."
Yuan Shenghe nodded, "Okay, let me know when there's a result."
The Qu family's mansion is a garden-style structure. If you come here in spring, it will be full of greenery, birdsong and flowers, and the scenery is particularly beautiful.
"Although it is winter now, winter has its own unique flavor. Every time I come back, I like to stay here with my grandfather."
After the two went downstairs, Qu Zuo first took Ji Yu to the yard to see the scenery.
"Has Yuan Shenghe lived here before?" Ji Yu asked.
"Of course. When he was little, I often brought him here to live for a while because his parents didn't like him."
"I heard that his parents had an adopted son, and that adopted son has passed away. What's going on?"
Qu Zuo turned around, "Didn't Sheng He tell you?"
Ji Yu said: "I didn't ask because I felt there was no need to ask him about the past, so as not to open up his scars."
"Maybe it's still a scar for him, after all, they are his biological parents," said Qu Zuo.
"This matter is no secret in the capital. The adopted son's death was purely his own fault."
"On the surface, I don't fight or compete, but in my heart I've always been jealous of Grandpa Yuan's kindness to Shenghe."
"I remember when they were about 20 years old, Grandpa Yuan gave Sheng He a sports car worth tens of millions. The adopted son was jealous and later secretly drove his car out. He ended up in a car accident and died on the spot."
Ji Yu's eyes narrowed: "How come it just happened that I stole his car and got into an accident?"
Qu Zuo raised the corner of his mouth, "Even you can see that there is something wrong. After investigation, it was found that the car was indeed tampered with in advance. Although there is no evidence, everyone speculates that it was his parents who did it."
Ji Yu took a breath and said, "How can there be such cruel parents? Just because a fortune teller said that their youngest son would bring bad luck to them when they were young, can they really give up their own bloodline?"
"The more people believe in this kind of thing, the more likely they are to be cold-blooded and ruthless. However, these people never look for the reasons in themselves. Even if Shenghe was not around, Grandpa Yuan actually doesn't like them. They are simply not fit to manage a company."
Qu Zuo waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. It's all in the past."
The two of them happened to be near the kitchen and dining room, and could vaguely hear the sounds of servants busy at work.
"Are you thirsty? I have some fresh hand-made juice. Can I pour you a glass of medicine?"
Last time at the birthday party, Qu Zuo remembered that he liked drinking beverages very much.
Ji Yu licked his lips and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you here."
"Okay, sit over there on the sofa for a while, I'll be back soon."
After Qu Zuo left, Ji Yu sat on the small sofa and scrolled through his phone out of boredom.
A figure suddenly stood in front of him.
