Chapter 486 - 468: Slow to Warm Up
Lu Jinsheng gave Zhao Xuan a glance; he hadn’t intended to hide anything from his family.
So he promptly and clearly explained how he had stayed in the grove on B University’s campus, how he witnessed the confrontation between Zhao Xuan, Baili Chengye, and Qi Xinrou, and then how he appeared before Zhao Xuan with the conditions of treating her grandfather and helping the Zhao Family business return to normal operations, hoping Zhao Xuan would become his wife.
Lu Jinsheng’s truly frank confessions made Zhao Xuan’s eyes widen in shock.
She turned her attention to Xia Yuan’s reaction, noticing that Xia Yuan remained calm after hearing everything, as if Lu Jinsheng’s actions were entirely within bounds, only furrowing her brow as if in deep contemplation, an appearance that nearly made Zhao Xuan’s jaw drop.
Zhao Xuan thought that the interaction between this mother and son seemed different from other families.
As she pondered this, she didn’t miss a word of their conversation, hearing Xia Yuan address Lu Jinsheng.
"Son, are you really sure that she is the future bride you’ve chosen? Think carefully before you answer me, marriage is not child’s play. Helping is one thing; even if you don’t marry her, but are willing to help, your father and I won’t obstruct you, we’ll even support you just the same.
"But marriage is another matter. If you truly decide to get married, then you take on each other’s responsibilities, and neither your father nor I will easily let you mention the word ’divorce’."
