Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School

2956 Wait a Few Years

“It was her who wanted to attack Yuqi first,” Chu Jianan said, not feeling guilty at all.

Hearing his words, Leng Changyuan and Leng Yecheng were both displeased. Leng Yecheng mocked. “Let me be straightforward, Xiaoyao and Yuqi are cousins. It’s none of your business if they have a tussel. Why didn’t you protect your fiancée, but another girl? Do you think that’s right?”

“I…” Chu Jianan was unwilling to do that, because he liked Leng Yuqi, so he only wanted to protect Leng Yuqi.

Before he could say anything again, Chu Zhaofeng interrupted. “Jianan, shut your mouth!”

At the same time, he gave him a warning glance. Chu Jianan didn’t dare to say anything again, because he was in awe of his father.

Afterwards, Chu Zhaofeng turned to look at Leng Changyuan and Leng Yecheng, then he apologized. “I’m sorry, it’s completely Jianan’s fault. Luckily, Xiaoyao wasn’t injured. As his father, I failed to educate him well. Given the current situation, I feel really guilty. If it hadn’t been for Yeze, I wouldn’t have survived. Mr. Leng, even though Xiaoyao is ending her engagement with Jianan today, I promise I still won’t spare any effort to help her if she needs it.”

It wasn’t just a courtesy. He indeed felt guilty and was willing to help Leng Xiaoyao if she encountered any trouble in the future.

He was snobbish, and felt the Chu family would be humiliated if Chu Jianan married Leng Xiaoyao, so he didn’t want them to get together, but in his heart, he was still grateful to Leng Yeze.

Leng Changyuan felt Chu Zhaofeng’s sincerity, so he was reluctant to argue any longer. “Fine, that’s it. As of today, Yaoyao has no relationship with Jianan.”

Leng Xiaoyao’s engagement with Chu Jianan ended. After that, Chu Zhaofeng politely walked them out.

Because they only needed to end the engagement, the elders could reach an agreement after a meeting. There was no need to waste much time on it. It wasn’t a divorce anyway.

After that, Leng Changyuan and the others left.

Once they were gone, Chu Jianan asked Chu Zhaofeng, “Dad, can’t Yuqi and I get together?”

“Didn’t you hear what Grandpa Leng just said? If you marry Leng Yuqi right after your engagement with Leng Xiaoyao is ended, both the Leng family and the Chu family’s reputation will be damaged. Our family’s business can be affected too.” Chu Zhaofeng expected better from Chu Jianan. He cared about his reputation, so he wouldn’t allow Chu Jianan to marry Leng Yuqi.

If he didn’t care about his reputation, he would have visited the Leng family to end the engagement early on. He wouldn’t have waited till the Leng family came to request it.

“But Yuqi and I truly love each other!” Chu Jianan refused to accept it. Although he wanted to end the engagement not just because of Leng Yuqi, Leng Yuqi was one of the reasons. He wanted to be together with Leng Yuqi openly.

“So what? Do you want to sacrifice our family’s reputation for a girl?” Chu Zhaofeng angrily shouted. It wasn’t easy for him to get so much wealth and keep a good reputation, so he was extremely mad that his son could easily ruin everything.

“But…” Chu Jianan was still unhappy.

“Alright, alright.” At this moment, Mrs. Chu opened her mouth. “You just ended the engagement with Leng Xiaoyao. It’s not right if you get together with Yuqi right away, but Yuqi is still young. It shouldn’t be a problem after a few years. And you might lose interest in her by then.”

“Mom, I…” Chu Jianan wanted to argue and say that he really liked Leng Yuqi. It wouldn’t change, but he suddenly wasn’t sure of it.

“Your mom is right. Now keep a distance from Leng Yuqi for the time being,” Chu Zhaofeng said. He also felt that Chu Jianan might lose interest in Leng Yuqi after a few years, so the best way now was to delay it.

In the end, Chu Jianan was persuaded, so he said nothing further.

Because he was convinced by Chu Zhaofeng and Mrs. Chu, he didn’t call Leng Yuqi after Leng Changyuan and the others left.

Leng Yuqi, however, was still waiting for his reply. She couldn’t feel relieved until he called her, but she didn’t dare to call him because she was afraid that Leng Changyuan was present and would hear them.

After Leng Changyuan and the others left, Leng Changyuan said, “Does Chu Jianan really think he can be together with Yuqi after ending the engagement with you? Naive! They can’t humiliate the Leng family like that. I thought Chu Jianan was a smart young man, but it turns out that he is stupid. I think Yaoyao is smarter than him.”

Leng Yecheng told Leng Changyuan what Leng Xiaoyao said yesterday, so Leng Changyuan felt that Leng Xiaoyao was smart.

“Right, Yaoyao knows to weigh the advantages and disadvantages, but Chu Jianan doesn’t,” Leng Yecheng agreed.

“Chu Zhaofeng doesn’t know, but Chu Zhaofeng and Mrs. Chu will see it clearly. If I guess correctly, they should tell Chu Jianan to keep his distance from Leng Yuqi. Or Chu Jianan will need to wait for a few years till the news about me and him is totally forgotten. He can’t be together with Leng Yuqi till the Chu family is safe, but Chu Jianan could fall in love with another girl during that time and lose interest in Leng Yuqi. I don’t think he’s a loyal man. He’s simply young and impulsive right now. After he learns about the cruelty of society and knows how to weigh advantages and disadvantages, he won’t choose to suffer the damage of reputation and benefits for Leng Yuqi. Most people are selfish and think about themselves,” Leng Xiaoyao said.

Hearing Leng Xiaoyao’s clear and rigorous analysis, both Leng Changyuan and Leng Yecheng were shocked.

They couldn’t believe their ears! How could Leng Xiaoyao be so clear-headed all of a sudden? She sounded so sophisticated.
