Chapter 211 Jiang Suining directly refused
In the garden, Jiang Suining looked at Zhou Changchuan. The other party had a sincere expression and she could tell that his words were from the heart.
In other words, at least at this moment, the other party is sincerely guaranteeing this.
She suddenly remembered that Shen Yanxi seemed to have said something similar to her before, that he would not stop her from continuing her business and doing what she wanted to do.
Jiang Suining withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and blinked.
"That does sound good, but I've been thinking lately that no one has ever told a man that he has to be bound by his wife after marriage and that he has to get his wife's permission before doing many things. So why should a woman be bound by her husband's family after marriage?"
Zhou Changchuan was stunned for a moment. "Hasn't it always been like this? But don't worry, I will never..."
"Is it always right?" Jiang Suining looked at Zhou Changchuan again, her clear eyes looking at him, "Mr. Zhou, I believe that what you just said was sincere, but I can do whatever I want now without any restrictions. Why do I need the permission of my husband's family if I want to have something I already have after marriage?"
Zhou Changchuan frowned. He had never considered what Jiang Suining said. After all, women have been bound by their husband's families since ancient times. This is common sense.
However, he couldn't say that Jiang Suining's words were wrong.
"Miss Jiang, I'm sorry. Maybe what I said just now was a little inappropriate. Or you can just tell me what you want. I will do my best to do it."
Jiang Suining shook his head, the expression on his face faded away, and he smiled again.
"I just had some doubts in my mind, so I said it out loud. I didn't mean to refute or target Mr. Zhou. As for the conditions..."
Jiang Suining paused for a moment and continued speaking.
"Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry, I won't marry you."
Zhou Changchuan's heart sank, "If it was me just now..."
"It has nothing to do with the conditions you just mentioned or what you and your brother said before. I don't want to do it because I don't like you."
Jiang Suining looked at Zhou Changchuan seriously.
"Thank you and your mother for your kindness, but I really don't have any romantic feelings for you. I'm making this clear today because I don't want to waste any more of your time. I believe that sooner or later, Mr. Zhou, you will meet someone who loves you."
Jiang Suining's tone was decisive, without any hesitation or ambiguity.
Although Zhou Changchuan had anticipated that he might be rejected, his face still turned pale when he was really faced with it.
"Miss Jiang, are you really not considering it at all?"
Jiang Suining shook his head, "Sorry."
She was very sure that she had no good feelings towards Zhou Changchuan.
"I should be the one to apologize. I was rude before, and now I am bothering you."
Zhou Changchuan took a deep breath, stared at Jiang Suining, suppressed the bitterness in his eyes, and smiled.
"Not liking someone is not something you need to apologize for. I also want to thank you for speaking frankly."
Outside the garden, Shen Yanxi curled his lips in a very good mood.
It was not only because Jiang Suining rejected Zhou Changchuan, but also because he found that he was not rejected so firmly by Jiang Suining.
Does this mean that Sui Ning does not have any negative feelings towards him?
This thought made Shen Yanxi so happy that he didn't even notice Jiang Mushi who had walked up to him at some point.
"Is it okay for Lord Shen to eavesdrop like this?" Jiang Mushi lowered his voice and spoke.
Shen Yanxi came back to his senses and saw Jiang Mushi, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"I just don't want to disturb your sister from talking to others."
Jiang Mushi rolled his eyes in his heart. Come on, he didn’t believe that.
However, if he really has to choose one, he still thinks Shen Yanxi is better than Zhou Changchuan.
After all, he hasn't forgotten what happened before!
Not long after, Zheng and Yu came back. They had also chatted with each other when they were looking at the materials just now.
Zheng said that the marriage would ultimately depend on Jiang Suining's own wishes. If Jiang Suining was willing, she would naturally have no objection, but if she was not willing and it didn't work out in the end, Yu was not allowed to break off contact with her because of this matter.
Yu naturally agreed immediately.
Looking at the somewhat forced smile on her son's face at this moment, Yu had a bad feeling in her heart.
While Zheng and Jiang Suining were talking, Yu pulled Zhou Changchuan aside and asked what they had said.
After all, he was still in the Jiang family, and Zhou Changchuan didn't say much, fearing that his mother would be unhappy if she knew about it.
Near noon, Jiang Zhitong and Zheng wanted to invite people to stay for dinner, but Zhou Changchuan took the initiative to refuse. Yu looked at her son and understood about 70% of the situation. Finally, she also said that she had something to do at home and left.
However, Shen Yanxi said that he had a day off today and had nothing to do, so he stayed for dinner.
Master Liu had already left. At the dinner table, Zheng couldn't help but ask Jiang Zhitong why Master Liu came.
"Could it be that that brat Mu Shi has caused trouble again?" Although Master Liu looked fine when he came over today, Zheng always felt uneasy.
"Mom, can you please hope for me to get better?" Jiang Mushi said dissatisfiedly.
It's not the same as before, how could he get into trouble again?
"I've been bitten by a snake once, so I'm afraid of ropes for ten years. What's more, I've been bitten more than once before."
"Mom, there are people here, please give me some face." Jiang Mushi signaled Shen Yanxi with his eyes.
"It's okay." Shen Yanxi said with a smile, "Uncle and aunt don't have to worry about me. If they feel constrained because I stayed for dinner, I would be embarrassed."
"Hmph." Jiang Mushi snorted lightly. Shen Yanxi really knows how to please others.
Zheng and the others felt more relaxed because of Shen Yanxi's words.
Jiang Zhitong smiled and said, "Madam, you guessed wrong this time, and it's exactly the opposite. Master Liu told me that Mu Shi has been learning very well recently. If we have a way, we can find a great scholar for him to be his disciple, so that he will definitely be able to reach a higher level in the future."
"Is it true?" Zheng's face was full of surprise.
"Of course it's true. Master Liu also told me that. But I don't think it's necessary. After all, I'm not interested in studying..."
"Why not? Of course it is necessary!" Zheng interrupted Jiang Mushi, smiling happily.
"Madam, don't be happy too soon. I heard from Master Liu that those great scholars will test the talents of their students when recruiting them. Even if you find a way, it is still unclear whether you can pass." Jiang Zhitong was a little worried.
"If aunt needs it, I can do my best to help." Shen Yanxi said.
Jiang Zhitong and Zheng were both delighted. Yes, they heard that Shen Yanxi had been sought after as a disciple by many great scholars. If he could give him some pointers, he would definitely have no problem passing the exam.
When the words of thanks were about to come out, Zheng and Jiang Zhitong suddenly stopped in tacit understanding...
