Dongfang Yi said with frustration: “Why are you so childish! Although Cui Shuqian is not as beautiful as those actresses, the Cui family behind her is incomparable to any of them! You’re already twenty-seven, yet, you’re just like a seventeen-year-old, only looking at external appearances? Have I wasted all these years teaching you?”
Dongfang Mu looked relaxed at this moment, his mood unaffected by his father’s words.
Because every time he thought of Lu Lingche marrying that deep-sea fish, Cui Shuqian, he wanted to laugh!
“Dad, I’ve always been this shallow. Didn’t you know this? Are you just thinking of teaching me now? Whose temperament do I inherit? Isn’t it you? Didn’t you marry my mom because she was good-looking?”
Dongfang Yi was stumped for a moment, and then said with annoyance: “Your mother was both beautiful and well-bred! Moreover, I wasn’t like you, with a bunch of girlfriends, constantly appearing in the entertainment news! You’ve completely ruined the reputation of the Dongfang Family!”
Dongfang Mu pondered for a moment before saying: “Then, I’ll stop dating starlets, and instead, find an ordinary woman who’s as beautiful as she is talented. What do you think?”
Dongfang Yi responded sharply: “Do you like someone else now?”
“This one’s different. She’s not in the entertainment circle, but she’s very intelligent and capable.”
Dongfang Yi was skeptical: “How capable? Are you bragging to me again?”
“Let me tell you the truth. That Siya Automobiles project we secured last time, she helped me win it. She directly earned our corporation hundreds of billions. Isn’t that impressive?”
Dongfang Yi was shocked: “Really? You’re not lying to me?”
“Of course it’s true. How else do you think I managed to secure Siya
Automobiles? Siya has been collaborating with the Shengling Group for a long time. Do you think it was easy to snatch them away?”
Dongfang Yi frowned slightly: “I was wondering how you suddenly managed to secure such a big project. It turns out you indeed had someone helping you.” “Well, what do you think about her now?”
“I’ll have an opinion only when I meet her. You’re talking non-stop without any substantial proof. How can I know what she’s really like?”
“No, I can’t bring her.”
“What do you mean you can’t bring her?”
“Because she’s not interested in me. I’m still pursuing her!”
Dongfang Yi sneered: “You’ve finally met your match! You’re always tangled with women from the entertainment circle. But when you came across an upright girl, you want to settle down, yet she doesn’t fancy playboys like you!” “Dad, can you be a little less harsh with your words? What do you mean by ‘settle down’? Did I sink into debauchery or something?”
“Don’t argue with me. A person’s capability is ultimately limited. No matter how capable this girl you’re interested in is, can she compete with the entire Cui family?”
Dongfang Yi issued an ultimatum: “You must ask Cui Shuqian out for dinner and express your sincerity, to change your playboy image! The chance to forge a matrimonial alliance with the Cui family cannot be snatched by the Lu family!”
Dongfang Mu wore a pained expression: “Why did we come back to the same point after all this talk?!”
“Your aunt has been getting close to the Gu family recently. Your cousin might marry the Gu family’s daughter! If your aunt’s side successfully forms a matrimonial alliance with the Gu family, your grandfather may hand over the corporation to your cousin! What will you do then?”
Dongfang Mu looked serious: “My cousin is going to form an alliance with the Gu family?”
The Gu family, like the Dongfang family, is one of the Four Great Noble families. Its power rivals the Dongfang family and surpasses the Cui family.
However, the Dongfang family and the Gu family have had some grudges in the past, so their relationship wasn’t good.
Unexpectedly, his aunt had broken the longstanding ice between the two families by arranging a prospective marriage between her son and the Gu family!
A tremendous pressure weighed on Dongfang Mu’s heart.
Ever since his grandfather suggested that his cousin should join the family business, he had always felt this pressure.
Because the right to inherit the family business could indeed be taken away, and no matter how much he disregarded the world, he absolutely couldn’t allow this to happen!
