Chapter 304: The Qu Family’s Decision
“You have someone you like?”
Qu Fan and his parents looked at each other.
“Chenchen, when did you find someone you like? I asked you some time ago, but you said there’s no one.”
Qu Fan wondered if his sister was just being perfunctory.
“I have someone I like. That’s what I wanted to tell you guys about when I came back this time. I’m going to get engaged to him!”
“What? Engagement?”
“Isn’t it too fast?”
“Chenchen, who is it? Don’t let someone cheat you.”
Qu Chen’s parents immediately panicked. In their eyes, Qu Chen was like their treasure. Ever since Qu Chen entered the Polar Academy, the entire Qu family was proud of her.
Why was Qu Chen suddenly going to get engaged to someone?
Qu Fan took a deep breath and said with a solemn expression, “Chenchen, we’re not forcing you to be with Young Master Lei. Have we ever forced you to do anything since you were young? But aren’t you being too willful by wanting to get engaged to someone without informing us? At least let us know something about him.”
“That’s right, Chenchen. When did you meet him?” Mrs. Qu asked anxiously.
“Dad, Mom, I’ve known him for a long time. Back at Central Sea University…”
“You’ve known him since Central Sea University. He’s a classmate of yours from Central Sea University, not Polar Academy?”
“Yes, we’ve known each other since Central Sea University. It’s just that some things happened later. I lost contact with him after I went to the Polar Academy. We only got back in touch some time ago.”
Qu Fan continued to ask, “Then he’s about your age?”
“A year older than me.”
“What does his family do?”
“They have a company in Central Sea City.”
“Are there any inhuman experts among the elders of the family?”
Qu Chen thought for a moment and replied, “I don’t think any of his elders are inhuman experts. His parents are only businessmen, and not martial artists.”
Qu Fan understood now. The male classmate she met in Central Sea University was probably Qu Chen’s first love. Later, for some reason, they got back in touch. Qu Fan had also experienced the beauty of first love. It was really unforgettable.
However, how could someone from an ordinary family of merchants be worthy of Chenchen?
In his opinion, or even the entire Qu family’s opinion, Qu Chen would break the genetic lock sooner or later, and become an inhuman expert. He would never allow his sister to be held back by someone like this.
However, he also knew that he could not force this matter. Otherwise, with his sister’s temper, she might very well do something irrational.
“Chenchen, I know that you can’t bear to part with that relationship, but feelings are feelings, and marriage is marriage. There’s a difference between the two. I think you should calm down for a while, and find a time to ask that person to come over. I’ll talk with him properly. I won’t interfere with your relationship, but you’re both young. Some things aren’t as simple as they seem.”
“Big Brother, you want to talk with him?” Qu Chen’s expression became a little strange.
“Why can’t I? As your big brother, can’t I talk to him? Not to mention that he hasn’t become the son-in-law of our Qu family yet. Even if the two of you get married in the future, he still has to call me Big Brother!”
Seeing Qu Fan’s confident and determined expression, Qu Chen really did not know how to bring up certain things.
If she said that the person she was engaged to was a Sage, her family would probably think that she had gone crazy, or was looking for an excuse to brush them off.
Seeing that Qu Chen’s attitude seemed to have softened, Qu Fan struck while the iron was hot and continued, “Chenchen, how can Big Brother possibly harm you? Why don’t you meet Young Master Lei tomorrow? I won’t lie to you. Young Master Lei is gentlemanly, polite, and easygoing. Even if you don’t get together, you can still be friends. Young Master Lei will never force you to do anything. Even if he wants to, our Qu family won’t let him.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Chenchen, why don’t you meet Young Master Lei first? I’ve also heard from your big brother that Young Master Lei has a very easygoing personality, unlike those profligate heirs of large families. He’s completely different. You’re both martial artists. In the future, when you marry, he can also help you advance further in martial arts.” Mr. Qu also persuaded.
“Dad, Mom, I have someone I like. I won’t meet Young Master Lei. There’s no need to talk about this anymore. I’ll go and rest first.”
With that, Qu Chen turned around and returned to her room.
In the hall, Mr. and Mrs. Qu were both a little worried. They really could not bear to see their daughter upset.
“Qu Fan, Chenchen is so determined. You also know Chenchen’s temper. She won’t change her mind after she’s decided on something. I think we should forget it. No matter how outstanding Young Master Lei is, if Chenchen doesn’t like him, there’s no helping it.”
“That’s right, that’s right. We can’t upset Chenchen. Although our Qu family isn’t very wealthy, we don’t need to rely on our daughter to earn a fortune.”
Seeing that Mr. and Mrs. Qu’s attitudes were somewhat swayed, Qu Fan hurriedly said, “Dad, Mom, what are you thinking? Am I someone who relies on my sister to earn a fortune? I’m doing this for her own good. She only remembers the beauty of her first love, but marriage is a different matter. I just want her to make a comparison and have a clear understanding.”
“I’ll get Young Master Lei to meet Chenchen and chat with her tomorrow. With Young Master Lei’s demeanor and outstanding talent, I don’t believe my sister won’t like him.”
“I’ve seen only too many descendants of big families, but I’ve never seen anyone as outstanding as Young Master Lei. I think Young Master Lei can really be considered outstanding among the younger generation. In the Sanctuary Academy, there are countless girls who are secretly fond of him, but they only have feelings for our Chenchen. This also proves that our Chenchen is an outstanding girl!”
“If such an outstanding and good girl marries into a family of businessmen, even if they have some money, what can it do? Wouldn’t that drag down Chenchen’s future prospects?”
Qu Chen’s parents were also convinced. That’s right, businessmen were rich, but no matter how rich they were, what did it have to do with Qu Chen’s martial arts?
The Lei family was a martial family. The elders in the family were martial arts experts. Even Lei Sheng himself was very outstanding and had broken the genetic lock. He was also so gentle and had a very humble personality. Where else could one find such an outstanding man?
If the Qu family really married the Lei family, it would actually be considered a social climb.
If Chenchen could be with Young Master Lei, the help she would receive in martial arts would far exceed that of any ordinary businessmen. Although Qu Fan had some selfish motives, he was still considering things for Qu Chen overall.
“All right, you can ask Young Master Lei to come tomorrow. If Chenchen really doesn’t like him, don’t force things.”
Mr. Qu made the final decision.
“All right, I’ll contact Young Master Lei now! Dad, Mom, don’t worry. Young Master Lei is gentlemanly, and is outstanding among the youths. I think few youths are as outstanding as Young Master Lei in the entire Central Sea City. As long as Sister has a good impression of him, it’ll be fine. Relationships have to be nurtured slowly.”
Qu Fan immediately got up to contact Young Master Lei. He believed that as long as Qu Chen saw Young Master Lei, she would definitely have a good impression of him.
As for the first love Qu Chen wanted to be engaged to? He was not even interested in asking.
