Chapter two hundred and ninety three engagement
"My dad originally relied on the big tree of the second clan leader of the family, but my dad was also worried that your dad would get power and the second clan leader would fall. So in order to continue to get the support of the family, my dad secretly supported and funded your family again, so that there would be two-way investment and double insurance, but he did not dare to blatantly, because he was afraid that there would be forces against your dad to escape and remain lurking in other places. The hostile forces of the Aisin Gioro family are extremely numerous. If you ask them to take surgery on my dad, it would be troublesome. So you can only pay attention to the situation in your family and let me approach you. If necessary, you can provide some career opportunities, but you can't be too blatant."
Speaking of this, Jinna lowered her head and fell into silence. Jinna's tone seemed very sincere, but from Jinna's flashing eyes, I realized that Jinna still had reservations.
After a little thought, I thought of the crux of the problem:
"Providing career opportunities? Haha, I'm afraid it's not just that." I sneered, "Let's not talk about the issue of the hostile forces of Aisin Gioro. If you provide career opportunities, why do you need to approach me personally and tell me the truth directly? Your father's purpose of getting you close to me is actually just to cultivate your relationship with me when I am weak and give me a good impression. After all, I have the blood of that man in my bones. If one day the man makes a comeback and becomes an emperor, then my biological son's status will naturally rise. And your small family can use my ladder to catch up with that man with his in-laws, right?"
"Jinna, your father's ambition is not just about getting family resources. I think his purpose is to let you, the family, re-integrate into the sect, re-integrate into the sect? Don't behave as I don't know the marriage tradition of the Aisin Gioro family."
Jin Na was slightly stunned, her eyes dimmed a little instantly. She bit her lower lip tightly, and then nodded solemnly:
"Wang Yisheng, you are so smart...I...I've known for a long time that I can't hide it from you...You're right, my dad asked me to approach you specifically...I really wanted me to please you...but, in fact, your dad does care a little about you, and every time I call you to ask about your family. The information...I told him... My dad knew that your dad was asking you from time to time, so he thought he valued you, so he asked me to have a good relationship with you..."
"What a good spy. Haha." I smiled lightly, but I was secretly shocked. Jinna's words made me more speculate about the man's thoughts. So, during the years I grew up, was that man actually secretly monitoring me? The organization that monitored was Jinna's family, and the monitor was Jinna herself?
"Then why did you come here today to make a frank announcement to me? If your dad wants to maintain his stupid plan, would you tell me this secret be bad for his plan? Or did your dad find that my relationship with that man is not as harmonious as he expected, so he gave up on the plan to cultivate you as my woman?"
Jin Na's delicate body burst again, and a look of shame flashed across her face, then nodded, shook her head again, and said:
"What you said is right...but in fact...not all right... In fact, my dad gave up the plan that made me approach you half a year ago..."
"Oh? This is a bit strange. Could it be that man's instructions? Or is your dad finding a bigger tree to lie with?"
"I found a new big tree...that tree is your father." Jin Na gritted her teeth, "Your father eliminated all the forces in the clan that wanted to persecute him. Now the head of the family is already magnificent. It was probably during the summer vacation last year, my father received an order from your father, saying..." Jin Na lowered her head, her voice extremely hard, "I said I wanted to get engaged to a young master of the Shanghai Xi family and want to establish a relationship between two families..."
"Then your father agreed, right?" I said with a smile.
Jinna's eyes turned redder, she bit her lips tightly and said in tears:
"Well, my dad agreed... Actually, he is willing to respect my ideas, but... this matter has been related to the operation of the big family and cannot be transferred by personal will. If my dad does not agree, the family will also find another suitable substitute."
I suddenly laughed, my smile stiff:
"No wonder you told me that day that day that you shouldn't make me interested in you. That's what it means."
Thinking of her unspeakable words when I rescued Jin Na from Gao Xueqin that day and sent her home, I finally realized that all the truth finally cleared the sky.
I continued, "But what happened to Gao Xueqin? Didn't you think about family at that time?"
"Well..." Jin Na's pretty face was covered with haze, and her eyes were red. "I didn't know what was wrong at that time. When I saw Gao Xueqin, I felt dizzy and felt like I had changed. I didn't care about any family affairs or engagement... At that time, I really had a ridiculous idea, and even wanted to give up the family and elope with Gao Xueqin.... Really, I didn't know what was wrong with me. At that time... I can't even figure out why I was like Gao Xueqin."
I narrowed my eyes. It seemed that Jin Na didn't know anything about magic from beginning to end. The reason why I involved Gao Xueqin was actually to test whether Jin Na knew something about magic, but from her unaware expression, she shouldn't know it.
It seems that the division of families is the division of families after all, and the information on mastering magic cannot be compared with the real one.
Jinna looked at me shyly and said:
"Well... Later, there was a poisoning incident in the cafeteria that day. You scolded Gao Xueqin in front of the whole school. After that... I suddenly felt nothing about Gao Xueqin. Later, I thought about it, maybe I was really fainting. I was so stupid. If I walked with Gao Xueqin, my father would have nothing to do with him. His connections, his status, and his investment funds borrowed from the family...the existing resources would be taken back. I wouldn't consider it for my father."
"So you agreed to the engagement?" I tentatively said.
Jinna looked at me steadily, with a pair of clear and watery eyes wafting with mist. Finally, she seemed to have made some decision, with her eyebrows slightly raised and nodded heavily:
"Well. I agreed... I had been very hesitant before, and my dad also gave me half a year to make a decision. Until noon two days ago, Wang Yisheng, your dad personally came to my house, sat for an hour, and talked with my dad for an hour. At that time, I was listening outside the door. I heard the conversation between my dad and your dad, and he said... If I was not happy to get engaged to the rich young man of the Xi family, he could choose other suitable girls of the same age in the family to get engaged at any time, and within the Aisin Gioro family, and my age
There are more than a dozen girls like me, and there are as many tools as I have to do with marriage... At that time, I was shocked. For my father, I came out and expressed my opinion to him personally, saying that I would marry the noble son of the Xi family in Shanghai... Your father... or my uncle, he took back the words to deprive my father of the resources and got up and left. Otherwise... I'm afraid my father..." At this point, Jin Na's voice choked, and she stretched out her thin and pointed fingers like snow onions and wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes, forcing her to calm down.
