The Downfall of the Eldest Miss - Chapter 53
Engagement is not as important as getting married. In order to catch up with the two children back to school, Huo and Shen quickly set the time and place. www.sto123.cc
The elders arranged things well, and the only thing Huo Cheng and Shen Wanying had to do was think about who they would invite.
“Your French classmate, Claude, remember to call him.” Huo Cheng and Shen Wanying sat on the living room sofa and discussed the classmates to be invited for the engagement banquet.
Shen Wanying had a computer on her lap and was sorting the list. Hearing Huo Cheng say this, he glanced at him: “Don’t you like him?”
Huo Cheng nodded: “But such a happy event of engagement, we still have to invite him.”
Shen Wanying laughed playfully and lost Claude’s name.
After finishing the list, she received a phone call from her mother’s assistant, saying that the dress she had worn when she and Huo Cheng got engaged had been delivered. The dress was specially customized by Jiang Yu looking for a designer, so after the clothes are ready, Jiang Yu is also directly contacted.
Shen Wanying communicated well with Jiang Yu’s assistant, hung up the phone and said Huo Chengdao beside her: “Our dress was delivered, my mother said let us go to the company to wait for her, and she would try it with us in the store later. .”
“Okay.” Huo Cheng nodded and stood up from the sofa. “I’ll drive over.”
The dresses helped them to the specialty store of Starlight Department Store. The company of Shen Family was not far from Starlight Department Store. They were all in the same direction and would not detour. After Huo Cheng and Shen Wanying arrived, Jiang Yu was still in a meeting. They waited in the office for a while, and soon heard some disputes from outside.
Shen Wanying looked at the door and subconsciously asked, “What happened?”
Huo Cheng didn’t speak, but he seemed to hear Jiang Yu’s voice faintly.
“My mother seems to be outside. I go out and see.”
“I’ll go with you.” Huo Cheng stood up and followed Shen Wanying. After opening the door, the outside voice was heard more clearly. Shen Wanying rarely came to the company, but after all it was a family business, and she still heard the voice of the speaker.
It’s her uncle.
“So I said, women can’t be the heads of the house. Usually, you go shopping and buying clothes, and this business has to be done by men.”
Uncle Shen Wanying said this to Jiang Yu. Once he finished speaking, Jiang Yu’s face (color) changed. She has been in the company for so many years, and she hasn’t listened to such words so much.
Many male seniors around him echoed Uncle Shen Wanying’s words, Jiang Yu stood alone among them, and appeared to be weak.
Huo Cheng stared at the arguing people in front of the corridor. He had dealt with Uncle Shen Wanying in his previous life and knew who they were. He also heard a little bit about this incident. The project that Jiang Yu followed made a small mistake, which can be resolved with a little treatment. Now the group of people is so unreasonable, not because of how serious the matter is, but Just play by the question.
He was engaged with Shen Wanying. The intention of Huo and Shen to marry can be said to have been put on the bright side. They were afraid that Jiang Yu would take advantage of Huo Cheng’s family and later have more influence in the company. Put on her hat.
He just wanted to step forward and help Jiang Yu to clear the border. Unexpectedly, Shen Wanying next to him took the first step and walked up: “Uncle, you are too arbitrary to say this. My mother has been busy with the company’s affairs in recent years. Afterwards, her dedication and ability are obvious to everyone. If my mother did something wrong, you can talk about things, there is no need to talk about things.
Uncle Shen’s family didn’t know when she came. He hadn’t seen her just now. He took a look behind her and saw the Huo family’s kid.
“Yuanying, why are you here?” Uncle Shen Wanying (Qiang Qiang) smiled at him, or she said something like an elder, “You are still small, you don’t understand the company’s business.”
Shen Wanying said: “I don’t really understand the company’s affairs, but I remember a project you were responsible for hitting the hand the previous year. You came to our house at midnight and asked my mother to give you a cure. Why didn’t you say a woman at that time? Can’t you be the kind of person?”
Uncle Shen Wanying’s face (color) suddenly became a little ugly. What Shen Wanying said did matter, and he wanted to refute it too. Jiang Yu glanced at Shen Wanying and said to her: “You and Huo Cheng will go to my company and wait for me first. I will deal with you when I’m done.”
“Good mother.” Shen Wanying responded and walked back to the office with Huo Cheng.
After that, there was no more quarreling outside. Shen Wanying thought her mother must have solved the problem. After a while, Jiang Yu pushed open the door of the office and walked in.
Shen Wanying and Huo Cheng both stood up. Jiang Yu put down his computer and waved at them: “Sit down.”
She opened the cup on the desk, took a sip, and leaned on the office chair to look at them: “Your dresses are ready, we’ll go and have a look later and have dinner by the way.”
Shen Qian was away on business for the past two days, so he didn’t have to call him for dinner.
Shen Wanying nodded and asked her, “Are you busy with the company?”
“Huh.” Jiang Yu responded and looked at her. “Yan Ying, your uncle is always your elder. You just talked to him like that, and it’s still a little bit unfair.”
“Ok.”
Shen Wanying didn’t refute anything, Jiang Yu looked at her for a while, and then said: “But you will come up to help me, I was quite surprised.”
Shen Wanying’s hands overlapped and laid on her lap. Jiang Yu chuckled and said to her, “Actually, I always feel that you resent me in your heart.”
Huo Cheng and Shen Wanying both looked up at her, and Jiang Yu took another sip of water, and then said: “I also know that since I was a child, I have been strict with you. It’s hard for you to have no resentment towards me? Your father has also been worried about what kind of mental illness you will have under my pressure. Do you remember? When you were in high school, there was a classmate in your school (killing sha). At that time, the school recorded the psychological lecture video. Your father was supervised. Seeing me from beginning to end.”
Huo Cheng looked sideways at Shen Wanying, and there was distress and worry in his eyes. Shen Wanying was silent for a while before she said to her mother: “In high school, the pressure will be a little bit bigger, and it is much better now. And I know, you The pressure in the company has always been great.”
Just like the uncle just took a group of people to find fault, this kind of thing is definitely not the first time.
Jiang Yu stood up and picked up the bag on the chair: “Okay, stop talking about these things, let’s go to see the dress first.”
“it is good.”
The wedding dress is not a wedding dress, it is a tailored skirt, but it is not so complicated. Shen Wanying fits it well after trying it, so she did not ask to change it. Huo Cheng’s dress is matched with her, and uses many of the same elements. It is just an ordinary suit dress, but standing up with Shen Wanying, you can see that it is a couple’s dress.
It can be said to be a showman.
Jiang Yu was very satisfied with the two sets of clothes, and asked the store clerk to help them pack them in the box. The clerk delivered the dress directly to their car, and Jiang Yu led Shen Wanying and Huo Cheng to the upstairs Western restaurant.
After coming to Starlight Department Store, Shen Wanying actually still wants to eat roast (meat rou) or hot pot, but these are obviously not elegant enough in Jiang Yu’s eyes, so she did not mention them.
Huo Cheng seemed to see what she was thinking, quietly leaned into her ear and said to her, “Tomorrow we will eat roast (meat rou)?”
Shen Wanying’s eyes lit up suddenly, and he watched Huo Cheng’s eyes full of smiles.
After eating, Huo Cheng said to take Shen Wanying to go shopping at Xingguang Department Store, and when it was time to send her home. Jiang Yu had no objection and went back in the driver’s car first. After Jiang Yu left, Shen Wanying was relieved. She took Huo Cheng’s arm and looked at him with a smile: “The dessert shrine downstairs should not be closed yet, let’s go check it out.”
“Huh.” Huo Cheng nodded. “But there may not be much left at this point.”
“Then let’s go faster!” Shen Wanying pulled Huocheng and ran towards the elevator. Huo Cheng was dragged forward by her, but the corner of his mouth accidentally (exposed) a little smile.
Desserts in the Holy Land really didn’t have much left, but Shen Wanying was lucky to buy the last durian layer. She and Huo Cheng sat at an empty table, and while cutting the cake in the plate, she said to Huo Cheng: “Fruit like durian is also the original sin in my mother’s eyes. If she knew I secretly eat durian, Must be mad.”
Huo Chengdao: “Then you remember to eat a piece of chewing gum later.”
Shen Wanying blinked at him: “Relax, I have experience. When I was studying, I secretly ate stinky tofu while carrying her.”
Huo Cheng laughed, and took out a box of chewing gum from the bag (Mo), and handed it to her: “Do you think she doesn’t know anything about your mother’s things?”
Shen Wanying’s hand holding the fork suddenly stagnated: “Don’t scare me.”
Huo Cheng patted her head gently, the action was extremely spoiled: “It’s okay, I just talk about it.” But he always felt that Aunt Jiang should be more or less aware, after all, Jiang Jin also helped Shen Wanying And played so many screens. Aunt Jiang looked very strict with her daughter, but at the same time she was very attentive to her affairs. She should not have noticed these small movements at all.
Shen Wanying was said by him, and he felt that the durian in his mouth was not fragrant. Huo Cheng saw her decent, and changed the subject to divert her attention: “Have you ever thought about talking with your mother? A chat? I think you guys have a good chat today. Do you feel you are closer to each other after the chat?”
Shen Wanying gestured to him with her little finger: “It’s a little bit.” She said a moment of silence before speaking to Huo Cheng: “Actually, I know that my mother loves me, but she’s a little bit The paranoia in things will not change. I think it’s good now, maybe ten years later, I can talk to her frankly.”
Huo Cheng looked at her for a while and said, “Uh”: “At least in front of me, you can relax completely.”
“Then I can only eat durian cake. I have to eat stinky tofu.”
“…”
“Do you like stinky tofu?”
“Not much.”
“Then you must have never tasted it, and once you eat it, you will fall in love with the taste.”
Huo Cheng was silent, but Shen Wanying was interested: “Some to sell stinky tofu on the snack street, I will buy you a copy later, you try it!”
“…” Huo Cheng said, “You rarely eat it once, or you eat it.”
“No, when we get married later, I can’t do whatever I want!”
“…” Huo Cheng looked at her and suddenly laughed, “Oh, you married me, just for this.”
“…Neither.” Shen Wanying poked the thousand-layer cake on the plate unnaturally. “I also want you to look less and look good.”
Huo Cheng leaned slightly in her direction, and a pair of eyes looked at her in an instant: “What else?”
“And…” Shen Wanying leaned over and kissed his face with her (milk Nai) oiled lips. “And I like you.”
