Chapter 300: Chapter 203: Going to His House Chapter 300: Chapter 203: Going to His House Oasis Garden Community. “Guixiang, don’t be mad anymore. Ruannuan is your daughter; don’t you know what she’s like?” “If you ask me, it’s quite good for you two to live apart for a while, to let Ruannuan calmly think about her future.” ... Big Aunt Wen Lan was sitting on the sofa, trying to console Qian Guixiang. Qian Guixiang’s face was clouded with anger, her expression tense as she said nothing. This time, Wen Ruan had gone too far, utterly embarrassing her in front of her own relatives and bringing her sister down with her. Wen Ruan was tall, good-looking, with a great job and education, which made her quite picky when it came to matchmaking. On her father’s side, due to issues with property demolition, the family wasn’t doing well, with many still living in rented houses. Thus, matchmaking had always been handled by her relatives on her mother’s side, especially her eldest aunt. Her family owned a hotpot restaurant, their children were successful, and they knew a lot of promising young men. For instance, there was Gu Cheng from before, and Zhao Zidong this time; both were introduced by her side of the family. This incident had already gotten out, and there was no way to salvage the situation. Wen Lan patted Qian Guixiang’s hand and said, “But Ruannuan really did go too far this time. I’ll talk to her later.” “Talking to her is useless!” Qian Guixiang sighed deeply, grinding her teeth, “She’s 30 years old, missed so many good matches! Like Little Li from a few years back, he’s now a leader at a state-owned enterprise, with a child who’s already two years old! And Little Wang from the year before...” “All I asked was for her to have dinner and watch a movie with Little Zhao. Good Lord, she had a falling-out with me over it! And then all that about a large flat, a Mercedes-Benz, tall, handsome, and young! Speaking such impractical nonsense, she deliberately made me lose face!” As Qian Guixiang talked about these things, she felt a heart-wrenching pain. With Wen Ruan’s age increasing, it became increasingly difficult to find suitable men who met her standards. If someone had the criteria, they’d obviously prefer a young girl in her early twenties. No matter how beautiful you are, you’re 30 years old! “Hmph, this...” Wen Lan’s mouth twitched, also feeling her niece was being too unrealistic, “Actually, I think Gu Cheng was the best match, very suitable for Ruannuan in height and looks, an investment manager at a finance company, with an annual salary of six to seven hundred thousand, owns his apartment and car outright.” Wen Lan was very emotional when it came to Gu Cheng. Wen Ruan’s blind date with him was the one the entire family knew most about, and the one Qian Guixiang and her husband talked about the most. They had even thought it was likely to work out. If her daughter Qiao Lina could find someone like that, Wen Lan would wake up laughing from her dreams. Qian Guixiang slapped her thigh, her voice full of pain, “He sent her WeChat messages that she wouldn’t reply to, invited her out for meals that she never attended. She lied to us before, saying she’d found a more suitable match. I actually believed her nonsense!” Wen Lan offered some comfort, “Don’t get so angry. I think Gu Cheng is quite interested in Ruannuan. Maybe they could try again in the future.” “Sigh!” Qian Guixiang let out a sigh, “I’m not asking for much now, just for her to end up like Lina, that would be good enough.” Wen Lan’s eyes curved into a smile, “Today she went to eat at Nana’s place, right? I asked Nana to also invite Xiaoman over. If the sisters have a heart-to-heart and Ruannuan sees Nana’s new house, maybe she’ll change her mind.” Wen Lan was quite proud of her daughter buying a place in the city center at Yuanhe Mansion, and she often went out for visits. In conversation, she would always somehow steer the topic towards this. Today’s visit to comfort Qian Guixiang was not without such a motive. Qian Guixiang shook her head, just about to say something. The phones on the table of both women buzzed simultaneously, followed by several WeChat messages. Wen Lan picked up her phone and looked, her eyes widening slightly, “Guixiang, check the group chat! Since when does Ruannuan have a boyfriend? Whose son is this, and why haven’t we ever heard about him?” “What are you talking about? What boyfriend?” Qian Guixiang hurriedly opened her phone. [Xiaoman: Group photo.jpg] [Xiaoman: “Today at Sister Lina’s place for a meal, Wen Ruan’s boyfriend also came. He’s really nice and matches Wen Ruan perfectly!”] [Xiaoman: “A match made in heaven, wishing you a hundred years of harmony and an early birth of a precious child.”] ... The following messages were all of Chen Xiaoman flattering, and it was clear she was excited, sending 5,6 messages in a row. Qian Guixiang looked at the photo with a face full of shock. In the photo, two people were taking a selfie at the dinner table. On the left was her familiar daughter, and on the right, a young man in a white shirt, looking around 25 or 26 years old, very smart-looking. His eyes were bright and lively, with a tall nose, red lips, and white teeth, handsome in appearance. The overhead shot clearly showed their hands clasped together. Based solely on appearance, Qian Guixiang was extremely pleased with her daughter’s boyfriend. He indeed looked much better than all the previous blind dates, even the most impressive Gu Cheng couldn’t compare. “Wow, this young man looks really smart!” Wen Lan nudged her, “Guixiang, do you recognize the boy?” Qian Guixiang’s fingers trembled, her face flushing with excitement as she exclaimed loudly, “Never heard of him before! This child, starts dating and doesn’t even tell the family! If you’d told us earlier, we wouldn’t have kept trying to matchmake for you!” Following Chen Xiaoman’s revelation, the family group chat suddenly became lively. Some congratulated, others asked for details, some tagged Qian Guixiang. “You hadn’t heard of him before?” Wen Lan’s eyes sparkled as she typed, “@Lina, Nana, what’s the deal with Ruannuan’s boyfriend?” [Lina: “Mom, how would I know? It’s my first time seeing him too, his name is Tang Song. We are in the midst of eating. Why don’t you and auntie come over, and ask in person.”]
