Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon
Chapter 364, Part 1: It Was a Deliberate Approach
The live stream chat was instantly flooded with comments, filled with envy and curiosity.
[Sister Chuxia looks so young, yet she's already at the stage of meeting the parents!]
[Quickly, let a master take a look! Is this a good match? Can it last?]
[They look so good together, a perfect match! Waiting for the master to determine their destiny!]
Chu Xia looked at the screen full of comments, her eyes crinkling with a smile, and earnestly looked at the camera: "Master Shen, I'm so lucky today, I just happened to win your lucky bag. I was just thinking of asking you to take a look at whether my boyfriend and I are truly meant to be."
"Okay," Shen Jingshu said softly. "Send your group photo to the backstage so I can take a look."
Chu Xia immediately responded and quickly sent the photo of the two of them together via private message.
Shen Jingshu opened the photo and examined it closely.
The boy in the picture is 1.88 meters tall, wearing elegant thin-rimmed glasses, with a clean and gentle temperament and a tall and straight figure. Judging from his appearance alone, he has regular eyebrows and eyes, and a gentle temperament. Standing next to the sweet and lively Chu Xia, they are a perfect match in terms of appearance and physique. At first glance, they are a match made in heaven in the eyes of others.
However, Shen Jingshu's gaze darkened slightly as she activated her Heavenly Eye to carefully observe the aura of their destined marriage. The more she looked, the fainter the expression in her eyes became.
A moment later, she looked up at Chu Xia in the video and asked precisely, "Your boyfriend is a colleague of yours who works in the same office building, just at a different company, right?"
Chu Xia was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes! The master is so accurate!"
Overwhelmed with emotion, she recounted in detail how they met:
"We're not from the same company, we just work in the same building."
The first time I met him was during a busy morning rush hour. I overslept that day and was about to be late for work. I ran all the way to the elevator, only to watch helplessly as the elevator doors slowly closed. My heart sank. I thought I was definitely going to be late and lose my perfect attendance bonus. I was incredibly annoyed.
Just as I was about to turn around and climb the stairs, the elevator doors, which had already closed, suddenly reopened.
My current boyfriend was standing inside. He reached out and pressed the open door button, his eyes gentle, and he smiled as he called out to me, "Come in quickly, or we'll run out of time."
I was incredibly grateful and thanked him profusely as I rushed into the elevator. Later I learned that he was an employee of the company downstairs from us.
I initially thought it was just a chance encounter, but from that day on, I ran into him almost every day on my way to and from get off work. Once or twice is a coincidence, but meeting him every time seems too deliberate.
I couldn't help but strike up a conversation. At first, he was very shy and reserved, and didn't say much. But after spending more time together, I realized that we shared similar values and interests, and we got along exceptionally well.
As time went by, feelings gradually developed, and we naturally became a couple.
We've been dating for six months now, and he took the initiative to introduce me to his parents. His parents even made time to come here, and today is our first official meeting.
No wonder netizens were impressed by her exceptionally refined appearance today. Normally, she would just apply a light layer of sunscreen and subtly brighten her complexion before going to work in early summer. But today, in order to meet her boyfriend's parents, she spent two whole hours meticulously preparing her makeup and repeatedly coordinating her outfit at home, showing her seriousness in every detail.
She clutched the hem of her clothes and looked earnestly at the camera: "Master Shen, please take a look and see if we can end up together? Although we've only been dating for half a year, he's my first love. My family has traditional values. When I was in school, my parents strictly forbade dating, but now that I've entered the workforce, they're urging me to go on blind dates every day. I told them I had a boyfriend, and my parents were hoping I'd bring him to their home soon, but before I could even make any arrangements, his parents came all the way here. So today, it's become me meeting his parents first."
Shen Jingshu asked casually, "Has your boyfriend mentioned his parents' jobs to you?"
"As mentioned before, his family isn't local; they're from a small city in the south. His father is a civil servant, and his mother is a housewife."
"On the other hand, your family is much wealthier than the man's, right?"
Chu Xia nodded frankly: "My parents are business people, and I'm their only daughter. They don't care about my partner's family background; they only ask that I find someone who is sincere and of good character. As long as I like someone, they will support me completely."
The barrage of comments began to scroll and appear.
"This young lady comes from a wealthy family and has good values; she's a rare find."
"It feels like the man deliberately orchestrated the encounter. Now he's rushing to introduce her to his parents, which seems very purposeful."
"Master, take a close look! Don't let this innocent first love girl get hurt!"
Shen Jingshu's gaze was calm. Her Heavenly Eye discerned the dark aura of entanglement between the two, and she spoke slowly, her voice carrying a hint of solemnity: "You must remain calm when I say what I'm about to say. What you thought was a match made in heaven was, from beginning to end, a trap he meticulously designed."
Hearing Shen Jingshu's serious tone, Chu Xia's face remained calm as she explained, "He confessed to me not long after we got together that he fell in love with me at first sight, and all those coincidences were deliberately arranged by him. But I don't think it's a big deal. We have compatible values and personalities, and he's my type. It's normal for guys to have some little schemes when pursuing someone, and I completely understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, the live stream chat instantly split into two completely different camps, arguing endlessly.
Some netizens were very anxious and repeatedly lamented that she was too naive, a complete romantic, and had been protected by her parents since childhood, unable to see through people's schemes.
Approaching someone with ulterior motives from the start makes genuine feelings impossible! Once he achieves his goal, the disappointment will be overwhelming.
[Deliberately created coincidences may seem romantic, but they're actually calculated at every turn. Ladies, be extra careful!]
However, another group of netizens felt it was harmless and shared their own experiences.
Actively pursuing someone requires effort; creating chance encounters is just a small, romantic way to get closer.
Who wouldn't actively create opportunities to meet someone they genuinely like? Only those who truly like someone are willing to invest time and effort; there's no need to make a big deal out of it.
If you can't even accept the slightest bit of scheming, it's hard to start a relationship.
The two sides' viewpoints flashed across the screen at lightning speed, arguing fiercely.
Shen Jingshu completely ignored the heated debate in the live chat and calmly asked, "Since you think deliberately creating a chance encounter is unimportant, can you accept it if he deliberately deceives you on other important matters?"
Chu Xia paused, her eyes full of doubt: "Other aspects? Besides deliberately arranging encounters, what else would he lie to me about?"
"Take his parents for example. He told you his father is a civil servant and his mother is a full-time housewife. Do you have any photos of his parents?"
"I think I do. He said his parents came over, and the whole family went out for a trip and took a group photo, which he sent to me for my records. I'll find it and send it to you now."
A moment later, Chu Xia sent a private message with a photo of the family of three.
Shen Jingshu lowered her eyes to examine the faces of the middle-aged couple in the photo, and then compared them with her boyfriend's features and demeanor. She had already made up her mind. Although the three of them looked harmonious standing together and there was indeed some kinship between them, they were definitely not biological father and son or mother and son.
