C145 A Young Promise
"I really like Lingling, but I am not strong enough yet. But I will definitely work hard. I will not let Lingling be bullied. And I will not let her get hurt. Now... I may not be able to fight against my family, but please believe me. As long as you give me time, I will definitely be able to protect her. " Chu Yan straightened his back and solemnly promised.
This was the love of youth, right? Impulse, willfulness, recklessness, without hesitation. But it made people want to protect this love for them. Because it seems like only the love of the student era is the purest, without any benefits. There was no reality. There was only the purest love in the bottom of one's heart.
Yuchen had never experienced such feelings before. At least not in the era of the purest students. She looked at Chu Yan. He was clearly a young man in his twenties. However, he seriously wanted to shoulder the future of himself and his beloved girl. That seriousness and solemnity actually made her slightly moved. At least this persistence towards love was worthy of respect.
"How long?" Yuchen asked seriously.
Chu Yan was stunned and immediately understood what she meant. He only hesitated for three seconds and answered with confidence, "Three years. Give me three years. I will definitely make everyone look at me in a different light."
"Okay, then I will wait and see." Yuchen smiled faintly.
Chu Yan nodded seriously and then turned to look at Su Ling, who still had a blank look on her face. He only took a step and walked in front of Su Ling. He leaned slightly over and kissed her on the face. He immediately took two steps back and said with a smile, "A promise kiss, I will leave first."
No matter how one looked at it, this back view was somewhat like he was fleeing for his life.
"Chu Yan, you..." Su Ling finally came back to her senses and covered her hot cheeks. She did not know whether she was angry or embarrassed but she looked up at Yuchen. She stomped her foot and turned around to run. She did not know if she went back to the private room or not.
Yuchen covered her mouth and laughed. Qin Mu, who was acting as the background, sighed. He held her hand and slowly walked back.
"You sold Lingling just like that?" Qin Mu asked in a low voice.
"Don't you think this Chu Yan is not bad?" Yuchen tilted her head and asked him.
Qin Mu did not answer her question. To be honest, he was not interested in other people's feelings. Even if that person was Su Ling, he loved her and treated her well. However, he would not interfere in her feelings. Perhaps this was the difference between men and women.
However, in Qin Mu's opinion, this Chu Yan was indeed not bad. It was rare for a young man at this age to be as responsible as him. When Chu Yan made the promise just now, there was a fiery light in his eyes. It was a kind of fiery light that would only appear after he had made up his mind. Usually, people with this kind of belief would not be too bad.
"It's a pity that Lingling has yet to understand. What should we do?" Yuchen kept talking to herself, "But this Chu Yan is quite thoughtful. He seems to be going to study in France too. I don't know if it has anything to do with Lingling."
Qin Mu tilted his head and looked at her. He could not help but slightly raise his lips. She was actually quite cute like this.
"Hey, can you help me investigate the Chu family and Qu family?" Yuchen lowered her head and said, "I think with Chu Yan's momentum, Lingling might be captured at any time. I still have to go and check on the situation of the two families first. I don't want Lingling to fall in love with Chu Yan. Then we'll hit a couple or something. "
... "" Qin Mu was about to roll his eyes. Did she really think that his brother-in-law was called by Lingling to play with?
In Qin Mu's view, other than feelings, nothing else was a big deal. Furthermore, he knew about the Chu and Qu families. They were just two families that were working together to gain benefits. Although they were friends, it was actually just that. Perhaps to Qu Qiao. She really liked Chu Yan, but to the two families' masters, it was perhaps just a business marriage. The only difference was that the two children were childhood sweethearts.
"What are you laughing about?" Yuchen looked at him suspiciously. This person had been smiling a lot more recently than before. She was really getting more and more unaccustomed to it.
"I will go and investigate." Qin Mu had always received orders from his wife. Furthermore, he only sent people to investigate the details of the person's background. It was just a matter of minutes.
In fact, it was really a matter of minutes. Qin Mu had only sent a message and in less than half an hour, the other party had sent an email. It was so efficient that Yuchen was stunned.
"No wonder everyone says Choo Yang is an almighty assistant." This efficiency was really enough. It scared the baby to death!
Qin Mu pursed his lips and did not say anything. This matter was not investigated by Choo Yang. It was just that he used the resources in his hands to investigate. In their circle, as long as they could pay the price, what could not be investigated?
Oh, right. Except for people like Qin Mu who had a very deep background, their information was usually locked behind layers of passcodes. Other people could only find the lowest level of things even if they wanted to investigate. It was useless.
At this time, they had already returned to the private room, and everyone was chatting excitedly. The topic had long shifted from Qin Mu to other things. Yuchen was able to whisper to Qin Mu. As for Su Ling, come in. In the future. He buried his head in the bitter food. No one knew what he was thinking.
"The water in the Chu Family is quite deep. ” Yuchen clicked her tongue and sighed. But it was also true. Any family with some family background would not be simple.
The Chu family and the Qu family were good friends. The Qu family made fast products, while the Chu family made raw materials. Simply put, the Chu family was the downstream supplier of the Qu family. The two families had started their business together. However, because the Chu Clan was limited by the raw materials, their development was not as good as the Qu Clan's. It could be said that the Qu family was the Chu family's biggest client, while the Chu family was the Qu family's biggest supplier. The two of them attached themselves to each other, but in recent years, due to the rapid development of the market, the Qu family already had more products, and the proportion of the Chu family's products was getting smaller and smaller. That was why the Chu family would propose a marriage alliance with the Qu family at this time, so that the two families could be firmly tied together.
The Qu Family originally wanted to put on airs, but everyone knew that Qu Qiao liked Chu Yan. Qu's father could only helplessly agree to this marriage, but no one had expected it. Chu Yan actually opposed this marriage, although this matter had not been spread to the public. But everyone knew in their hearts that Chu Yan only treated Qu Qiao as his younger sister. The two families did not have much reaction. In their minds, as long as the two of them graduated, they would get married. As for whether Chu Yan was willing or not, actually, it was not that important.
So when Su Ling appeared midway, Qu Qiao was naturally in a dilemma. She said that no matter what she said, she would not let others occupy Chu Yan's mind. Even if he still did not like her now, she was confident that he would definitely like her.
"It looks like the Chu Family must hug the Qu Family's thigh." Yuchen whispered in Qin Mu's ear, "Tell me, does Chu Yan know about this matter?"
If he knew, then he would still pursue Su Ling with such care. Yuchen really did not know what to say.
"It's not important." Qin Mu replied faintly. No matter whether he knew or not, this matter would become a foregone conclusion. He tilted his head to look at her. "This way, you will also help him?"
"I hate this kind of thing the most. It's so annoying to see someone of equal social status." Yuchen snorted coldly. "Help him."
Qin Mu nodded. Since his wife asked him to help, he would naturally help Chu Yan. As for how to help him, he would think about it later.
However, what he was thinking now was Yuchen saying "family is equal." His eyes flashed slightly. He only hoped that when they went to the capital, she would still be so self-righteous. That would be good!
