0376 Chapter Lingluoxi's guidance
"Brother Zero, are you asking me for something?"
When Liu Meijia heard Chu Nan call him Brother Ling, he immediately guessed that it must be Ling Luoxi's family. He immediately closed his mouth and listened quietly.
Ling Yuanqiang said: "You have not been very successful in your proposal recently."
"It's not going well." Chu Nan smiled, "but I will definitely do it."
"Well, I believe in your perseverance, but some things cannot be achieved by relying on perseverance alone. For example, you have not even been able to enter my house recently. If you want to propose marriage, how can you start?"
Chu Nan frowned and said, "Brother Zero, what do you mean?"
"Don't worry, I'm helping you, or my sister. You've done enough now, let me help you with the rest."
Chu Nan's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise and joy: "Brother Zero, do you have a way? That's great, do you have a way?"
Ling Yuanqiang said in an understatement: "If I can't help, will I call you? How many days will it be for my old man's birthday? I plan to invite you to the birthday party that day. What do you think?"
"That's really great." Chu Nan said excitedly, "Brother Zero, this is a favor I owe you."
"Don't mention whether you owe me or not." Ling Yuanqiang said coldly, "If you owe me, then there will probably be more than this favor."
Chu Nan knew that if Ling Yuanqiang had not been delayed before, perhaps Ling Luoxi would have been forced to get married countless times. Speaking of which, he would have owed Ling Yuanqiang a huge debt of favor.
Ling Yuanqiang continued, "Don't worry, I'm not for you. The main reason is that I don't want my sister to live unhappy in the second half of her life. But there is only one opportunity, so you have to seize it."
"Brother Zero, what do uncle likes? I can choose gifts to go there."
"Haha, do you want to play with him? But I don't know what he likes. On weekdays, he likes to play chess, whether it's chess or military chess. Oh, by the way, he is also very knowledgeable about calligraphy and likes boxing. The rest are not thought of. My old man has a stern personality. Because my grandfather is a soldier, he is also more upright and tough. All I can think of is this. If I think of anything that can help you later, I will call you to tell you."
"Okay, Brother Zero, I'll thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Nan murmured to himself: "Soldiers... boxing... calligraphy... play chess."
Chu Nan touched his nose and murmured to himself: "It seems that I know all these things. Damn it. It seems that the old man taught me so much, and finally it was a useful place."
Liu Meijia looked at Chu Nan and said quietly: "Brother Chu, do you have a way?"
"Well, it's hard to say, but at least I have a chance."
"Then I want to congratulate Brother Chu, and I also wish Brother Chu a victory and strive to win the beauty."
Chu Nan obviously noticed the slightly sour meaning in Liu Meijia's words, but he pretended not to hear it, and laughed: "Then thank you for Meijia's Jiyan. If I can successfully propose marriage, I will ask you to have our wedding banquet. Okay, I'm really tired this day, so I'll go back to my room to rest first."
"Well, Brother Chu, please take a break early." After Chu Nan disappeared in front of her, Liu Meijia sighed softly and said quietly, "Brother Chu has the opportunity to marry Sister Luo Xi. Shouldn't I be happy for them? Brother Chu can finally get what he wants."
Chu Nan returned to the room and was happy to get such good news. However, although this was an opportunity, it was hard to say whether it could work. Think about the birthday of the old man Ling's family. If he proposed marriage in person, once he was rejected, it would not be so easy to recover it, and it would be easy to be laughed at by the Shangguan family.
Thinking about it now, although I had the opportunity to meet that day, there were so many people present, and I didn’t have many of them. But no matter what, this was a small step after all. I would like to thank my brother-in-law for anyway.
Just as he was thinking, Ling Luoxi suddenly called again. Ling Luoxi asked on the phone: "Brother Chu, my brother has told you just now, right?"
"Yes." Chu Nan said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will seize every opportunity and will pick you up as soon as possible."
"Well, I believe you. But Brother Chu, you don't have to be discouraged. Let me tell you something bad or bad news."
"Okay, haha, the news is not bad or bad at least not bad. Let me listen."
"Well, Shangguan Qingyun from the Shangguan family came to my house to propose marriage in person."
Chu Nan was shocked and said, "Shangguan Qingyun? Isn't that the head of the Shangguan family? This is probably not good news."
"The good news is that my father didn't agree."
Chu Nan breathed a long sigh and said with a wry smile: "It seems that this is good news. Although I haven't done it yet, at least I can give me some time to find a solution."
"Um."
"But." Chu Nan said with some confusion, "Your old man refused to see me, it was obviously dissatisfied with me. According to this point, he should choose the Shangguan family. The head of the Shangguan family came to propose marriage in person, which has given great face. Why did your old man refuse? What kind of play is this?"
Ling Luoxi snorted and said, "What, do you want me to really marry?"
"How could that be!" Chu Nan laughed, "If you are really married, then I will kiss you halfway. His grandmother's, I must take you away anyway."
"Hmph, this is almost the same. Since you are so sincere, I will talk to you. I heard from my brother that my old man has a pretty good impression of you. In theory, even if he doesn't accept you, he will not reject you."
Chu Nan said: "Is there a special reason?"
"Yes, there are some special reasons. Alas, in the past few days, the power of our Chu family in the political arenas everywhere suddenly changed a lot. Several officials belonging to our Zero family's forces have been exposed to corruption, and some have been under double supervision. The pressure on our Zero family has increased sharply."
Chu Nan said in surprise: "Is it the Shangguan family's actions?"
"Yes!" Ling Luoxidao, "According to my estimate, the Shangguan family has two purposes. The first is to show our Ling family the energy they have, and indirectly tell us that marriage with them is the best choice. The second purpose may also be to threaten our Ling family by this. It must be because you won the championship in the National Medical Competition, and coupled with the current status of a medical master, they feel threatened."
Chu Nan said: "Then why did your old man refuse them?"
"Haha, the Shangguan family doesn't understand the personality of my old man. Although my father hates everything else, he would rather be rude than bend in terms of personality. If the Shangguan family did not have such a big move, maybe he would really consider marrying the Shangguan family, but the Shangguan family's current behavior has stimulated him and aroused the disgust of my old man."
"So, your old man refused the Shangguan family?"
"Yes, so I rejected the Shangguan family."
Chu Nan touched his nose and laughed: "It's really a soldier's personality."
"The reason why you didn't let you in is because there are people from the Shangguan family around me at any time. This is to avoid the Shangguan family's intimidation. Once the Shangguan family feels that you have obtained my father's consent, I'm afraid the Shangguan family will really make big moves."
"Ok, I understand. However, the strength of your Zero family should be no less than that of the Shangguan family, right? Why are you afraid of the Shangguan family?"
"This is not a question of whether to be afraid or not. The problem is that we have not prepared before. Although the four giants have always had intrigues, there has been no big dispute in general. Over time, even a person who is more vigilant will relax. This time, the Shangguan family took action too suddenly, which was completely unexpected. So the best way now is to delay for a few days first and then launch a counterattack."
"Oh, I understand completely. Hey, the affairs of wealthy families are really a bit troublesome."
"Well, there are still many troubles, but they have nothing to do with you and me. This time, my old man celebrated his birthday, and he could take the opportunity to gather all the intellectuals of the forces from all over the country, and then it was time to launch a counterattack."
Chu Nan smiled excitedly and said, "In this way, wouldn't the marriage between Shangguan family and Ling family be a terrible?"
"That's what I think." Ling Luoxidao, "However, there is another possibility. After our Ling family launched a counterattack, the Shangguan family would see the strength of our Ling family. Once the face was recovered, the marriage could be discussed again."
Chu Nan said Oh, frowned and said, "It sounds a bit complicated, but I am such a smart person, and I understand it as soon as I hear it. It seems that I can't be careless. While your old man and Shangguan family have not agreed, I should find a way to attack on the initiative."
"Well, but don't recklessly propose marriage on your birthday. If my old man refuses it, according to his personality, it is very likely that someone will not agree to your proposal again for the sake of face. After all, it has been rejected. If you agree again, it will be too shameless. This is completely different from the Shangguan family. Shangguan Qingyun talks with my old man in private, so these issues will not be involved."
"I understand, we were actually thinking of going together. Do you have any suggestions? What birthday gifts should I prepare for your father?"
"It depends on your own. My son-in-law gives gifts to my future father-in-law. I also have to find a way to start your mind. Thinking about one by yourself can be considered a bit sincere."
Chu Nan smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, don't people say that girls are outgoing? Why do you look bad?"
"Hmph, people are helping you like this, aren't you still looking at you? My old man is showing me so much that he said you've hooked my soul away."
Chu Nan smiled with a humble look on his face and said, "Have you hooked up?"
"That's strange!" Ling Luoxi snorted, "I won't tell you, don't forget. Don't propose marriage that day. Prepare your birthday gift in advance, dress yourself up well, and try to be more appropriate."
"I understand, it depends on your husband's performance that day."
Chu Nan smiled and was about to hang up the phone, when Ling Luoxi said softly: "Wait a minute, kiss me."
"Trojan horse."
"Trojan horse!"
After hanging up the phone, Chu Nan felt that the pressure was coming as scheduled. Although the threat from the Shangguan family could be delayed a lot, it is still a long way to go if you want to marry Xiao Lingling!
