However, he was also someone who wasn’t materialistic and did not value the Xu family’s business much. Besides, he was still focused on his studies.
The only thing he could give up now was this engagement that did not belong to him.
The Jiang family had a good family background and was very compatible with the Xu family. Jiang Yunhuan was the daughter of a rich family, and she was about the same age as Qiao Dongliang.
If Qiao Dongliang had not been carried away back then, all of this would have been his.
After Xu Feng and Qiao Dongliang went upstairs, Madam Xu said with a smile,
“It seems that the two brothers get along quite well.”
“That’s good.” Xu Jingye couldn’t help but sigh. “It’s our greatest wish for the two brothers to support each other.”
“I was really worried that the two of them would be unaccustomed to each other and argue, which would lead to a brotherly conflict. Now, it seems that I was overthinking.”
“You’ve read too many novels,” Xu Jingye said with a smile. “I think Xu Feng can’t wait for his brother to come back and help him. As for Dongliang, he can’t wait for someone to help me manage the family business so that he can study in peace.”
Madam Xu couldn’t help but laugh. “Yes, these two brothers look really good together.”
After going upstairs, Qiao Dongliang told Qiao Weiyang what had happened.
Qiao Weiyang smiled and asked over the phone, “Not bad. You’ve only just returned, but someone is already introducing a girlfriend to you.”
“Sister, you’re teasing me too. I don’t want a girlfriend. Isn’t it best to study in peace?”
“Be careful, or you’ll be alone for the rest of your life.”
“I won’t! Anyway, I won’t accept this so-called fiancée.”
After chatting with him over the phone, Qiao Weiyang was a little relieved. It seemed that Xu Feng was indeed the kind of person he appeared to be. He would not compete with Qiao Dongliang.
She knew the Jiang family very well. They were a famous family in Jingdu City and were a good candidate for marriage. If Xu Feng wanted to compete, there would be no better candidate.
Qiao Dongliang had just hung up when he received a WeChat message from Xu Feng.
He had sent him Jiang Yunhuan’s WeChat number.
[Dongliang, get to know Yunhuan first.]
[Okay, Big Brother.] It was not appropriate for him to refuse directly. He could only add Jiang Yunhuan on WeChat first. He greeted her and chatted briefly.
Xu Feng also sent a WeChat message to Jiang Yunhuan. [Yunhuan, when you come to my house to attend the banquet in two days, let’s find a time to talk alone.]
He could also take this opportunity to make things clear.
He did not have that sort of intention toward Jiang Yunhuan, so he naturally did not want to delay her.
Whether she got together with Qiao Dongliang after that, that was their business.
Besides, Jiang Yunhuan’s current identity was not suitable for these scandals to spread.
Jiang Yunhuan was a little surprised to receive messages from two people at the same time.
She pursed her lips slightly. She knew that Qiao Dongliang was the son of the Xu family. The two brothers had sent her WeChat messages one after another, saying that they wanted to have a good chat with her when the time came. What was going on?
Could it be that a few days after they met, there was going to be a fight between brothers?
She thought for a while. The Xu family was a big family and ran a huge business. Xu Feng was Madam Xu’s adopted son. Over the years, he had been doing well in the Xu family’s business. Qiao Dongliang had just returned.
Logically speaking, he should have some performance and career ambition…
The two brothers suddenly contacted her. It seemed that they thought highly of her.
She thought about it carefully. Although Xu Feng was not the Xu family’s biological son, the Xu family treated him as their own. He was outstanding and was very convincing when running the Xu family’s business.
Although nothing had been revealed yet, as the biological descendant of the Xu family, Qiao Dongliang would definitely receive a lot of resources in the future.
Since both of them liked her, it became a problem for her to make her choice.
Jiang Yunhuan made repeated comparisons in her heart and could not make a decision.
Forget it. She would make a decision after talking to the two of them when she went to the Xu family’s house.
In the Xu family.
The family banquet was being held.
As she had found her biological son, Madam Xu was very happy. She specially invited her relatives and friends to a meal and introduced QIao Dongliang to everyone.
There were many people coming and going. They chatted and joked with him.
However, there were also people with malicious intentions who took advantage of the time when Xu Jingye and Madam Xu were talking to others to secretly sow discord.
“Dongliang, are you going to enter the company soon after you come back? The company your father founded is his many years of hard work. It’s developing well right now, but it’s all in your brother’s hands. After you come back, you should be the one managing it.”
“That’s right, that’s right. You’re the biological son of the Xu family. Logically speaking, the company should be yours. Now that you’re back, all of these things should be yours.”
These people were jealous of the Xu family’s business and did not like Xu Feng’s usual lukewarm attitude toward them. Now, they could take this opportunity to sow discord between the two brothers so that they could profit from it.
“My brother is outstanding and has been managing the company well. I still have to go to school now. I think it’s better for my brother and I to do our own jobs.” Qiao Dongliang rolled his eyes and asked his fourth uncle, who was trying to sow discord, “Fourth Uncle, I heard that your son’s college entrance examination results are average. He’s still getting tutored, right? When you’re free, you should care more about your son’s studies. He should at least try to get into a university.”
Fourth Uncle’s face alternated between red and white. He was embarrassed.
Qiao Dongliang then said to another middle-aged woman, “Fifth Aunt, my brother’s career is doing well. Of course, I want him to continue. As for me, it’s better for me to focus on my studies now. Fifth Aunt, when you’re free, you can accompany Fifth Uncle out to socialize. That way, so many women won’t have designs on Fifth Uncle.”
Fifth Aunt also blushed.
Qiao Dongliang’s words hit their sore spots.
Needless to say, they were too ashamed to continue sowing discord.
Qiao Dongliang’s attitude not only protected his relationship with Xu Feng, but it also let everyone know that he was not brainless and would not be easily manipulated.
Hence, some people with ulterior motives did not dare to continue sowing discord.
After Qiao Dongliang gave these people a reality check, he turned around and saw Qiao Weiyang looking at him with a smile.
He immediately ran toward Qiao Weiyang. “Sister!”
“It’s only been a few days since we last met, but you’re really stepping up to the plate. You can handle these people with ease now,” Qiao Weiyang teased with a smile.
“It’s all thanks to your reminder before that there’s bound to be some bad apples in the bunch. You told me to be careful. I went to consult Big Brother before and asked him to give me some pointers on the personalities of these people. In the end, they really came in handy..”
