Chapter 918: Chapter 918: She Regretted Agreeing to Li Shengxiaoâs Request
âWho exactly are you talking about? Your half-finished sentences are making me dizzy,â Lin Teng said, confused and pressing her for more information.
Su Yi hesitated to speak ill of Rong Yan, but Su Xiansui had no such reservations and interjected, âLet me explain, Uncle. The issue is simple.â
âThe girl Cousin is dating comes from a rather complicated family background. Not only is her family in disarray, but she also severed ties with them early on. She herself is an actress, newly risen in the entertainment industry. A girl who was fostered in her home is also an actress, and the two of them have frequently made news for various reasons. All this scandal has tarnished their reputations, which is what Auntie is worried about too. She thinks this girl is not suitable for Cousin, both because of her family situation and her career.â
Su Xiansui was much more direct, âAunt originally thought as long as Cousin liked her, it was fine, even if the girlâs family wasnât well-off. As long as she had a respectable job, respectable work, and a good personality, it would be okay. But it turns out sheâs an actress. Uncle, you know our kind of family fears getting involved with celebrities the most! Celebrities are too exposed, their entire lives under public scrutiny. Aunt is concerned Cousin might be negatively influenced.â
Lin Teng hadnât expected this at all, finding it far more surprising than he had imagined. He looked at Su Yi as if seeking her opinion.
Su Yi gave him an affirmative look and said, âThat girlâs situation is even more complicated than what Xiansui described. In any case, I donât think sheâs particularly suitable for him.â
Rong Yanâs personality also wasnât suitable for Shengxiao. She hoped Shengxiao would find a gentle girl, someone more capable of taking care of a person who would neglect everything once immersed in work.
Lin Teng, though taken aback, remained calmer, âMaybe the girl isnât as bad as we think. Letâs meet her before deciding.â
âThatâs exactly the problem,â Su Yi said with a look of helplessness. âI thought he was dating an ordinary girl. I told him to bring her tonight to meet the elders of the family. Just think, this girlâs background is so unexpected. If things donât work out between them later, then introducing her into our circle now could become a dark mark on Shengxiaoâs record.â
Introducing her would imply Su Yi approved of Rong Yan. Given Rong Yanâs complex situation, Su Yi simply couldnât approve. Not to mention personally introducing her to her acquaintancesâit was too unexpected.
âI initially thought even if Shengxiao were to choose, he wouldnât pick such a complicated girl. Just like you, I didnât wish to repeat the tragic history of dad and Zhiya. Yet in a moment of impulse, Iâve created this awkward situation I canât escape.â
Wasnât it an inescapable dilemma?
She had already promised Shengxiao to introduce the girl into their circle, and now she regretted it, unable to explain herself to Shengxiao.
But the thought of introducing her to the circle, knowing Rong Yanâs identity would likely be scorned by others, was something Su Yi herself couldnât approve of in a girl.
Her greatest worry was that, after introducing her, a breakup would mean that everyone would remember there once was such a person in his life. When talking about Shengxiao in the future, todayâs events would inevitably come up.
Her concerns werenât unfounded. Lin Tengâs lips tightened as he looked over the esteemed guests, took a deep breath, and said, âDonât worry, letâs wait until Shengxiao brings her before we decide.â
No sooner had he finished speaking than a commotion arose at the doorâthe person they were discussing had arrived!
