Chapter 484 She would be an ideal wife

Yu Changze frowned slightly. "Aren't all blind dates relationships based on the premise of marriage?"

That's correct.

Yu Changze looked at his younger sister and felt that her reaction was a bit off.

He asked, "You're not getting along well with Teacher Wen?"

Yu Yashi smiled faintly, "It's not that things aren't going well. Teacher Wen is very gentlemanly to me, and we have a lot in common. I really think we're a good match in every way, but there's just something I can't quite put my finger on."

“You’ve only known each other for a short time.” Yu Changze picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said, “Take your time, there’s no rush.”

“I know.” Yu Yashi covered her mouth and smiled. “I’m not that desperate to get married, okay? It’s just that I feel it’s rare to meet someone I think is suitable in every way, and I don’t want to miss out.”

"If you like it, then take the initiative."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yashi tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear with her fingertips, looking somewhat unnatural. "A woman pursuing a man is too unreserved; I can't do it."

She had lived with Madam Yu since she was a child, and the values ​​she received did not allow her to do such a thing.

"In the face of love, both men and women have the equal right to pursue it." Yu Changze looked at her, his expression slightly serious: "Times have changed, Ya Shi, you should forget your grandmother's set of rules for female virtue."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yashi lowered her eyes and sighed, "Although that's what I say, that's just my personality. I can't do things like actively pursuing someone."

Yu Changze shook his head. Although they are siblings, they are both adults and have their own independent pursuits and values.

As her older brother, Yu Changze wouldn't interfere excessively in his sister's private life. Occasionally, when they talked about it, he would offer some advice, but he wouldn't force Yu Yashi to listen whether she wanted to or not.

He also believed that his sister, who had received higher education, couldn't possibly be unable to handle her own personal relationships.

...

9:30 p.m., Lijiang Villa.

In the back garden, Wen Jingxi squatted by the fish pond and poured a handful of fish food into it.

The plump koi carp were scrambling for the food, creating a rather intense scene that rippled across the water.

Wen Jingxi stared at the koi in the pond, but his thoughts drifted away.

Shen Qingshu walked over and stood beside him, looking down at him. "Why are you here all alone?"

Wen Jingxi snapped out of his daze and looked up at her.

"I'm doing a surprise inspection. If even one is missing, I'll be furious with you." He joked, standing up. "Are the kids asleep?"

"Fu Siyan is telling them a story."

Wen Jingxi nodded, and couldn't help but sigh, "Time flies so fast. They seem to have grown quite a bit taller since we came back this time."

"Yes, I'll be in kindergarten next semester." Shen Qingshu rubbed her arm. "There are a lot of mosquitoes at night, shall we go inside?"

"You can go in now, I'll wait a little longer."

Shen Qingshu frowned and looked Wen Jingxi up and down. "Since you came back this time, I always feel that you have something on your mind."

"No." Wen Jingxi's expression was somewhat unnatural.

Shen Qingshu pursed her lips and sighed softly: "I heard from my godmother that you've been seeing someone on a blind date recently, and they all think you two are a good match."

“Hmm.” Wen Jingxi touched his nose. “She is the daughter of the Yu family in Hong Kong. She is the fourth child in her family. She has two older brothers and one older sister. Her eldest brother takes over the family business, her second sister is a well-known surgeon in Hong Kong, and her third brother is said to be a director.”

Is your surname Yu?

Shen Qingshu frowned slightly. What a coincidence.

The director that Qi Mingxuan introduced to her a while ago also has the surname Yu.

If it really is the same person, then given the power of the Yu family in Hong Kong, Yu Changze wouldn't need to find a company to collaborate on making movies.

It seems that Yu Changze's collaboration with her may have ulterior motives.

Shen Qingshu guessed that Yu Changze was after Qi Mingxuan.

However, her biggest worry right now is Wen Jingxi.

The elders around her clearly thought highly of Wen Jingxi and that Miss Yu, but Shen Qingshu felt that Wen Jingxi didn't seem so satisfied.

Shen Qingshu asked him, "What does that Miss Yu do?"

“She is an appraiser,” Wen Jingxi said. “She owns two auction houses.”

“An appraiser,” Shen Qingshu nodded, “then you two are colleagues. If you’re together, you’ll have common topics to discuss, so it’s quite suitable.”

“She’s quite skilled,” Wen Jingxi said. “She’s proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and has even published a book. She also seems to be a lyricist and composer.”

"Such a multi-talented woman?" Shen Qingshu couldn't help but sigh, "It's said that the Yu family of Hong Kong produces talented women for generations. It seems that it really is true."

"Grandpa Yu was very fond of traditional Chinese painting. He once personally visited my grandfather to request a painting by him. My grandfather and Grandpa hit it off immediately and Grandpa Yu gave him his final painting. In return, Grandpa Yu gave my grandfather an antique worth over 100 million yuan. That's how the two old men established a deep friendship."

"So, the two elders are thinking of strengthening family ties through marriage?"

Wen Jingxi nodded.

Shen Qingshu looked at him and said, "It is certainly important to be well-matched in terms of social status, and Miss Yu is also very outstanding. So it seems that you two are indeed a good match in every way. However, when it comes to matters of the heart, being a good match is not enough. Xiao Wen, do you understand what I mean?"

Wen Jingxi's eyelashes trembled slightly.

He understood what Shen Qingshu meant.

“I know.” Wen Jingxi turned his gaze to the koi in the pond. “Miss Yu is very outstanding, and she has a gentle personality. If I were to marry her, I think she would be an ideal wife.”

The back garden was quiet at night. The sound of flowing water from the fishpond and the artificial hill could not drown out the man's deep voice.

Song Lanyin stood at the small gate leading to the back garden.

Under the lights, her tall figure appeared somewhat stiff.

She heard every single word Wen Jingxi said.

She was also holding a cultural relic that she had just snatched back from abroad, which was the early Ming Dynasty porcelain that Wen Jingxi had been longing for some time.

never mind.

She gave a self-deprecating smile.

Forced relationships are never sweet. She may not be afraid of hardship herself, but that doesn't mean others aren't.

Song Lanyin turned and left.

Silently.

...

When Shen Qingshu and Wen Jingxi returned to the living room, the first thing they saw was an exquisite wooden box on the coffee table.

“Miss Song just came by,” Aunt Yun explained as she walked over. “She said this was for Teacher Wen.”

Upon hearing this, Wen Jingxi was taken aback, strode to the coffee table, and opened the wooden box.

"Isn't this the porcelain piece you've been looking for?" Shen Qingshu frowned and looked at Wen Jingxi: "It wasn't easy to find this, and Ayin just gave it to you like this?"

Wen Jingxi frowned and looked at Aunt Yun: "When did she arrive?"

"It was just about ten minutes ago. I came out of the kitchen and saw her putting things on the table," Sister Yun recalled.

Wen Jingxi's hands, hanging by his sides, clenched slightly. "Did she say anything else?"

Aunt Yun shook her head. "No, I told her you were in the back garden, and she didn't say anything. I offered to call Miss Chen, but she said no, waved, and left."

Shen Qingshu looked at Wen Jingxi.

Wen Jingxi bent down and picked up the wooden box. "I'll take the things to the studio first."
