Chapter 575: How Is My Daughter

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye

Boss Cutie

Jiang Muye had the Chen Clan backing him, after all.

If Xiang Shan really wanted to oppose him, she was basically throwing eggs at a rock.

Just as Jiang Muye was about to get up, he heard Xiang Shan's ice-cold voice.

"Stop right there."

Jiang Muye turned back to look at Xiang Shan.

"How is she?"

"Ruoli?" Jiang Muye looked at Xiang Shan with a complicated expression.

"Yes." Hearing Leng Ruoli's name, Xiang Shan's eyes still dimmed a little.

Ever since she and Leng Ruoli had fallen out, she no longer had any way to contact her daughter.

Her daughter clearly didn't want to contact her anymore.

That stung Xiang Shan a bit.

After all, Leng Ruoli was her only daughter, and she really didn't want things to end with the two of them never speaking to each other again.

Especially since her daughter was pregnant now.

"She's fine, everything's fine. She's carrying twins now," Jiang Muye told Xiang Shan.

Xiang Shan breathed a quiet sigh of relief. "That's good."

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going." Jiang Muye's thin lips parted coldly.

But Xiang Shan suddenly rose from her seat. "I agree to the two of you being together."

Jiang Muye squinted at Xiang Shan, still somewhat doubtful. "Really?"

She'd been so fiercely opposed just moments ago, and now she was calmly accepting it?

Jiang Muye was still a little suspicious.

Xiang Shan said to Jiang Muye, "Really. But I have one condition."

Hearing that, Jiang Muye let out a cold laugh.

Xiang Shan was Xiang Shan, all right. She would never do anything that put her at a disadvantage.

"Let me hear it first, then I'll decide whether I can agree," Jiang Muye said, unwilling to let himself end up in a weak position.

Xiang Shan stared straight at Jiang Muye. "I want you to help me get together with Leng Qihua."

"What?!" Jiang Muye had imagined countless possibilities, but he was entirely unprepared for this.

"You heard right. I want to get back together with Leng Qihua." Ever since that last incident, Leng Qihua had stopped coming to see her.

She had no reason to go looking for him now.

Especially since she'd learned from his social media that there was a woman with decent prospects around Leng Qihua, and the other party was even a female corporate executive whose qualifications were no worse than her own.

Now she was thoroughly sour about it.

She also understood that she had never truly given up on Leng Qihua.

It was only after losing him that she realized how arrogant she'd been in the past, and how absurdly wrong she'd been.

Especially at the thought that Leng Qihua might well marry that woman—Xiang Shan's heart felt completely blocked up.

Hearing this, Jiang Muye gave a slight tug at the corner of his lips. "I'm afraid I must decline."

"Why? Last time you were able to help Leng Qihua get together with me, so why can't you help me now!" Xiang Shan stared at Jiang Muye in astonishment.

"Father-in-Law didn't threaten me. I helped him of my own free will. I hate being threatened by others, and even you, my future Mother-in-Law, are no exception. Besides, back then he had feelings for you, and the two of you were husband and wife. Now you've gone your separate ways, so there's nothing I can do to help you with this."

In reality, Jiang Muye just wanted to take some of the arrogance out of Xiang Shan.

Xiang Shan still couldn't let go of her pride.

Being too proud in the world of love only ends up hurting the other person.

As long as Xiang Shan didn't change, the two of them would just end up getting hurt in the end, and it would've been better if they'd never started at all.

Xiang Shan's brows knitted tightly. She bit down on her back teeth and glared at Jiang Muye. "Aren't you afraid I'll oppose you and Ruoli being together?"

"What ability do you have to oppose it now? The child in Ruoli's belly is mine, and our relationship has the blessing of the public. If you come out and sing a contrary tune, people will only say you're being unreasonable, and you won't get a single benefit out of it," Jiang Muye responded coldly.

"Besides, there's one thing I'm very certain of, and that's that you can't break us apart. I'm only here asking your opinion out of respect for you as her biological mother. If you're unwilling, then I have nothing more to say."

Jiang Muye was extremely confident.

After all, he and Leng Ruoli had been through so much together. Would they be afraid of a little thing like this?

The more people didn't want them together, the more they had to prove how precious their relationship was.

In short, show off their love for Xiang Shan to see, and sour her to death!

Xiang Shan was slightly taken aback. Seeing Jiang Muye's confident demeanor, she felt he was dazzling.

He hadn't come to beg her at all—he'd only come to notify her.

She'd been taking herself far too seriously, still putting on an act.

"If you're free this weekend, come meet my parents. We'll be at North Shore Hotel, room 203. Father-in-Law will be there too. That'll probably be your last chance. Whether you seize it or not is up to you!" Jiang Muye looked at Xiang Shan with sharp eyes.

After giving his notice, he began to leave the café.

Xiang Shan watched his retreating back, looking thoughtfully.

…

The weekend arrived quickly.

It was time for the two families to meet.

Jiang Muye had already gone to the airport early to pick up his parents.

【Congratulations, Host, on your successful Check-in at the airport. You have obtained 200 Grit Points.】the System reminded.

"Dad, Mom!"

Jiang Muye shook his head and spotted his parents coming out through the exit.

Their faces were joyful as they happily walked over.

Father Jiang smiled at Jiang Muye. "Son, where's Ruoli?"

"Ruoli's waiting at home. She was originally going to come with me, but I thought her health hasn't been great, so I figured she should rest at home," Jiang Muye explained.

Mother Jiang nodded. "Right, she definitely needs to rest well at home. This time I brought wild honey and Ejiao—those are all good for a pregnant woman. She needs to nourish herself properly."

"Thanks, Mom." Jiang Muye helped his parents take the suitcases.

Father Jiang said, "No need, I can handle this little bit of luggage myself."

"I'm your son, after all. What's a little luggage? I could carry a dozen of these no problem," Jiang Muye said heartily.

"Hahaha, my son's about to become a father, and his sense of responsibility is stronger than usual. Not bad—it really is true that people grow up when they're about to become parents," Father Jiang nodded in approval.

Mother Jiang didn't hold back at all, praising Jiang Muye. "Hey, that's for sure. My son is amazing—and a big CEO too!"

"Who says otherwise! Whose family could compare to our son?" Father Jiang couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Jiang Muye was in great spirits. He instinctively touched his nose, rather embarrassed. "Dad, Mom, stop praising me. Any more and I'll be embarrassed."

"Haha, all right, let's go." Father Jiang's smile deepened.

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang followed Jiang Muye.

After getting in the car, Jiang Muye began reporting the situation to Leng Ruoli. "Darling, I've picked up my parents and we're on our way back."

Hearing this, Leng Ruoli was clearly a little nervous. On the other end of the line, she said anxiously, "What should I do? I feel so much pressure right now, I'm so nervous."

"Nervous? Why be nervous? An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her in-laws sooner or later, and you're not even ugly. You met my parents last time too, and they like you a lot—they're very satisfied with you." Jiang Muye soothed Leng Ruoli's emotions.

"But last time I met them as your girlfriend, and now it's as your future daughter-in-law. It's still a little different," Leng Ruoli said anxiously.
