Chapter 557
As Situ Chen stared at the photo, Old Man Situ spoke slowly, seeming to be lost in memories: "This was my first love, but she suddenly left me after I became pregnant and disappeared."
Old Master Situ sighed, "At that time, she would send me a photo from time to time. It was through this photo that I knew she was in Kyoto. But when I wanted to come over, I was stopped for various reasons. I could only find someone to come back to look for her. Unfortunately, they said that the place where she lived was burned down by a fire, and everyone died, and my daughter is missing."
Mr. Situ tightened his jaw and said, "Although I got married and had other children, you know that first love is the hardest to forget. And my daughter who is living away from home is my only concern in this life."
When Master Situ said this, he sighed: "Chen'er, you are my most beloved grandson, so can you help me find her?"
Situ Chen stared at the photo and asked, "Grandpa, if your daughter were still alive, how old would she be now?"
Old Master Situ frowned: "She should be in her forties, right? At this age, she should have been married..."
Situ Chen asked again: "What was your first love called?"
Mr. Situ sighed: "I don't know."
Situ Chen was stunned: "How could I not know?"
Mr. Situ said nostalgically, "We met at a masked ball. We both had aliases at that time. She and I spent a very romantic night in Country F. We stayed together for the next half month and traveled all over the mountains and rivers of Country F. I fell in love. She was a very addictive person with a very good temperament. I wanted to marry her...but she suddenly disappeared."
Mr. Situ sighed, "She was like an elf who had strayed into the human world and disappeared. I looked for her everywhere, but there was no trace of her. Later, I followed my family's arrangement and got married... But three years after she disappeared, I suddenly received a photo of her. The photo showed her and our daughter."
When the old man said this, a kind look appeared on his face.
Situ Chen looked at it and couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, he grew up with his grandfather and knew that his grandparents had always respected each other but did not love each other very much.
It turns out that grandpa has someone in his heart.
He sighed silently.
Fortunately, grandma has passed away now. If she were still alive, she would definitely be very sad.
but……
Situ Chen still looked at Mr. Situ: "Grandpa, what is her last name, do you know?"
Mr. Situ shook his head again.
Situ Chen sighed: "If I don't even know the last name, then I can only look for the person everywhere with the photo..."
He stared at the teenage girl.
Situ Chen grew up abroad and has difficulty distinguishing the appearance of foreigners, but he is actually a little face-blind to Chinese people.
It was only because Xu Nange had such a stunning and distinctive appearance that he remembered him.
The girl in the photo in his hand was somewhat similar to Mrs. Xu whom he saw in Haicheng that year, but in fact, those people were all somewhat similar in his eyes.
He looked at Mr. Situ and said, "Grandpa, I can help you find this person. Can you promise me that if I help you find this person, you don't have to marry your cousin?"
Mr. Situ was at a loss for words: "This won't work."
Situ Chen didn't understand: "Why? You accepted the family marriage back then, which led to your unhappy marriage. You also know that you will be happier with the person you love, you..."
“I’ve actually been pretty happy in my life.”
Situ Chen:? ?
Mr. Situ laughed and said, "Do you think your grandmother and I don't want to love each other? But we both know each other."
Situ Chen was stunned: "What?" Old Master Situ smiled and said, "We both have someone else in our hearts, so we are very compatible when we are together. Do you think her unhappiness is because of me? No, no, she also has someone else in her heart... But for so many years, our lives have been very harmonious. Do you know? Don't marry the woman you love most...
Marriage is the grave of love. Marrying the one we love most is a torture for us. Love will fade with the passage of time. The one we once loved passionately will sooner or later become dull.
This is disrespectful to love. My first love and I are both proud people. If we were together, our married life would have more daily necessities and would not necessarily be happy.
On the contrary, your grandmother and I are a family marriage, and our marriage is more stable than others. We don’t love each other, so we can tolerate each other’s shortcomings and even be honest about the darkest parts of our hearts... So over the years, my marriage life has been very happy. "
After saying this, Mr. Situ looked at Situ Chen and said meaningfully: "Miss Nan Wei is a very emotionally stable person. If you marry her, your future marriage life will not be bad."
Situ Chen couldn't help but reply: "But Miss Xu Nange is also very stable."
"But she gave up on you!" Old Master Situ replied slowly, and then smiled: "Besides, we and the Nan family are destined to cooperate and form an alliance."
He looked at Situ Chen: "Your Miss Xu will not marry you. But Nan Wei is willing to marry you, this is Nan Wei's biggest advantage."
Situ Chen was puzzled: "Doesn't our family rely on external marriages? What does the Nan family have?"
Old Master Situ lowered his eyes, his old eyes were deep and unfathomable: "The Nan family is a mysterious existence. I have been trying to get in touch with them for so many years. Now they are willing to join forces with our family. This is an opportunity for our family. As a member of the Situ family, you must seize the opportunity. You must marry one of these two people!"
Situ Chen asked: "What is it about the Nan family that attracts us to marry into the family?"
"What they have is beyond your imagination." Old Master Situ just said this lightly, and then he spoke again: "Chen'er, don't resist. Tomorrow is your engagement party with Nan Wei. Attending it obediently is the greatest contribution to our family."
Old Master Situ stood up and said, "You have enjoyed the favorable conditions brought by the Situ family since you were a child, so you should shoulder the due responsibilities for the Situ family. Good child, go ahead. Nan Wei is your cousin and will become an excellent wife for you. Don't resist, try to accept her."
After Mr. Situ finished speaking, he left.
Situ Chen sighed and looked down at the photo in his hand.
At this moment, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Xu Nange: [Are you sure you want to get engaged tomorrow? ]
Situ Chen replied: [It should be. Today's arrangements have been prepared. ]
Xu Nange: [Is there any way to stop it? ]
Situ Chen: [It seems not. I don’t want to marry Nan Wei either, but it seems I have no choice. This is what Grandpa wants of me. ]
Xu Nange: [Can we find another way? Does your grandfather have any unfulfilled wishes now? Maybe I can help him fulfill them and then go and convince him.]
Seeing this sentence, Situ Chen was stunned.
Grandpa’s wish… Then the only thing left is this photo in my hand…
He took a look and sent a message to Xu Nange: [Grandpa's only wish is to find his daughter who was lost outside.]
Xu Nange replied quickly: [What daughter? Any clues? If I find his daughter, can I delay the wedding? ]
Situ Chen: [I can’t delay.]
After he said this, he looked dejected. Could it be that Miss Xu had no feelings for him at all?
While he was thinking, he saw Xu Nange sent another message: [I want to help him find his daughter, do you have any clues? ]
Situ Chen: [There is a photo.]
Xu Nange: [Send it over.]
