Her words seemed to be well-received. Qing Kangyu lowered his head, picked up a cup of tea from the table, and took a sip, a curve forming on his lips.
"Xing'er, Mu Ye is already married. Even if you agree, I'm afraid your parents won't approve of this marriage."
"Before, I always thought Brother Mu Ye was 'dead.' Who knew he was still alive? That period was the darkest time of my life. Ever since then, I swore that if Brother Mu Ye could still be alive, I would definitely marry him. I believe heaven must have heard my prayers. So, if I want to marry him, no one can stop me."
Qing Kangyu shook his head. "Sigh, I can't understand you young people's thoughts. Mu Ye already has a wife and children, and you're still willing to be with him. As for this love, your father is very touched."
"What era is this? Who still cares about that?" Tang Wanxing shook her head. "They are just two children. I will definitely treat them as my own. The only thing to do now is to make Meng Jingwei leave Brother Mu Ye."
"Although Meng Jingwei came from the countryside, I heard that when they got married, she 'threatened' Mu Ye with her unborn child and demanded a lot of money. I'm afraid 'buying' her off with money won't make her leave Mu Ye voluntarily."
Qing Kangyu said coaxingly.
To separate Meng Jingwei and Qing Mu Ye, Qing Kangyu had no choice but to smear Meng Jingwei's name.
Only by doing so would Tang Wanxing be convinced and then find a way to be with Qing Mu Ye.
Qing Kangyu believed that in this world, only the pampered princess of the Tang family in the Imperial Capital was worthy of his son.
"Don't worry, Uncle. Leave the rest to me."
Tang Wanxing was confident and added, "You can return to the Imperial Capital recently. Remember, absolutely do not tell my parents that I am in Lancheng."
"Hahaha, alright." Qing Kangyu laughed heartily. "There are still some projects in the Imperial Capital to handle, so I might as well go back."
He put down his cup and stood up. "Xing'er, you carry on then. I'll go back and rest."
"Alright, Uncle. Safe journey."
Tang Wanxing was respectful and courteous, as if all etiquette were etched into her bones.
After leaving Tang Wanxing's suite, Qing Kangyu went down one floor to his own suite.
Upon opening the door, he saw a man in a white suit sitting on the sofa, reading a book. He wore rimless glasses and looked very refined.
"How did it go?"
Seeing Qing Kangyu return, the man teased, "Judging by your expression, I know my 'resurrected' brother must not want to see you."
"Stubborn temper, I'm afraid he won't accept me anytime soon." Qing Kangyu walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside, and sighed deeply. "Fortunately, the great princess Tang genuinely likes Mu Ye, otherwise, how could our Qing family have the chance to form an alliance with the Tang Corporation of the Imperial Capital?"
"As far as I know, my brother really likes that woman named Meng Jingwei."
The refined man in the white suit remarked.
"Ziqian, if only your brother were as sensible as you are," Qing Kangyu felt very troubled.
Ziqian was his son with Qiao Shuang. Because he deeply loved Qiao Shuang, he let Ziqian take his mother's surname, naming him Qiao Ziqian.
Because Qiao Ziqian was his illegitimate son, born secretly after he had been married to Qing Mu Ye's mother, An Meisong, for several years, he was not many years younger than Qing Mu Ye.
"Father, don't worry. I will definitely help Princess Tang win over Big Brother." Qiao Ziqian was absolutely willing to sacrifice his half-brother to fulfill the marriage between the Tang family and the Qing family.
Therefore, let alone a mere Meng Jingwei, even ten Meng Jingweis would be no problem.
After saying that, he immediately picked up his phone and composed a message: [Immediately delete all messages linking me and my father.]
