Chapter 1060: What Is Liking
As soon as the word "clothes" was uttered, Xia Yuan shot a sharp glare, "I don’t want any clothes. I’ve told you many times, I’m not going. Just leave!"
The door was pushed open from outside. Xia Zhengyang stood at the door, looking at his rambunctious daughter, feeling a bit of a headache, "Yuanyuan, what are you doing? It’s just asking you to change clothes and go with your dad to Uncle Li’s house. Nothing’s going to happen to you."
Xia Yuan stood up, "Dad, I’ve told you many times, I don’t want to marry him! Why must I marry someone I don’t like? Are you happy if your daughter lives unhappily in the future?"
"What is liking?" Xia Zhengyang questioned back, "Just living at someone’s place for a few days counts as liking? Do you know who he is, the deputy director of Beichen Group, do you know what that means? In Z City, people you absolutely cannot offend, right at the top is the young master of the Beichen family, and secondly, his right-hand man."
"Xu Kun owns shares in Beichen Group and fought alongside Young Master Chen to build a business."
Despite not having much direct contact, he knows that in Beichen Group, apart from the young CEO, Mo Han and Xu Kun hold the largest shares. Such a person is not someone ordinary folks like them can afford to provoke. If they inadvertently upset them, they can easily crush you with their connections.
Hearing her father’s words, Xia Yuan was somewhat surprised. She thought her father had a poor impression of Xu Kun, but it turned out to be like this.
"Why did you run off to him at the time? Thankfully, he wasn’t angry, or our business wouldn’t have continued."
It seemed Xu Kun was quite angry at the time, right?
Clearly, he wished he could throw her out of the car!
"Is he really that powerful?"
Forgive her, as she’s been abroad all these years and isn’t familiar with these connections.
"What do you think? There’s no need to tell you how influential Beichen Group is in Hua Country. Aside from the Beichen family’s young master, he’s the second-in-command in the group. Even when I meet him, I have to ingratiate myself!"
Suddenly remembering the tone when calling Xu Kun yesterday, feeling a bit regretful. To be honest, he regretted it right after hanging up the phone.
Actually, he has long known that his daughter lives at Xu Kun’s place, but he never managed to get in touch. Meetings were never arranged until a work contact number was obtained from a partner.
"Enough talking now, quickly change clothes and go with me to Uncle Li’s house. Apologize properly. You ran away from the engagement scene, how are we, as parents, supposed to save face?"
"I’m not going." Her attitude remained firm, "If you want me to marry someone I don’t like, then stop saying anything. I won’t go."
"Nonsense!"
Obviously infuriated by her, "Then who do you want to marry? You and Haochen have had a marriage contract since childhood. Are you planning to back out now?"
Xia Yuan covered her ears, unwilling to listen, "Dad, don’t say anymore. I’m not going to marry him and... I have someone I like."
Hearing this, Xia Zhengyang’s heart almost jumped out, "You wouldn’t have, fallen for Xu Kun, right?"
Xia Yuan’s face suddenly flushed red, carrying a few hints of feminine shyness, she lightly nodded, "Yes."
She admitted openly.
To be honest, ever since she ran into Xu Kun’s car, she has noticed this man. Handsome in appearance, outstanding in demeanor, despite wearing casual clothes then, couldn’t conceal his aura of success at all.
Though his face showed a cold expression and even threatened to throw her out of the car, she just wasn’t afraid of him...
