Chapter 850: Finding a Way to Secure My Sister’s Happiness
Chen Xuan observed Zhang Yan's changing expression and knew the moment was right.
He then spoke earnestly, "Zhang Yan, I believe you've changed a lot now, and I'm willing to believe your feelings for me are genuine."
"But I don't want you to follow me and leave home, exposed to the hardships outside, constantly facing life-threatening dangers."
"Besides, you already have a relatively good living condition, and there's no reason to abandon all this."
"I've always regarded you as a younger sister, and the Zhang Family will surely thrive more and more in the future. Even if I'm not in Jiangnan City anymore, it won't affect the Zhang Family's future prospects."
"You should find a young master from a local family to marry, and eventually transform into the matriarch of a family. I sincerely hope you do well and hope you will consider it."
Zhang Yan's expression quickly returned to normal, "Alright, Brother Chen Xuan, I will think it over."
"You can leave first. I'd like to rest a bit."
"Alright, I'll head back then." Chen Xuan got up and left Zhang Yan's room.
It should be about right now; Zhang Yan won't continue to bother him.
After Chen Xuan left, Zhang Yan immediately got up to find her father, Zhang Jun, "Dad, do you think what Chen Xuan said is true?"
Zhang Jun nodded slightly, "It's true. He will soon leave Jiangnan City. Do you still have feelings for him?"
Zhang Yan pouted, "Since he's leaving, what's there for me to hold onto! I wouldn't follow him around, wandering without a place to settle."
Zhang Jun secretly let out a helpless chuckle. This is the fundamental reason why his daughter Zhang Yan is not a match for Chen Xuan.
No matter how many measures are taken, they can't compare with Lin Wanxi.
But he didn't want to say much more, perhaps this is the best outcome.
"Yan'er, since you no longer have feelings for Chen Xuan, consider Zhu Feng."
"The Zhu family's patriarch is also very keen on marrying into our Zhang Family! Once you marry into the Zhu Family, you'll become the matriarch there!"
"Together with the Zhu Family, in Jiangnan City, no one would dare to provoke us lightly." Zhang Jun gently advised.
Zhang Yan nodded slightly, "It seems like this is the only way. Marrying Zhu Feng is also a good choice."
"Then it's decided! I won't overthink it anymore!"
"Alright, I'll inform the Zhu patriarch right away to set a date as soon as possible," Zhang Jun said with a light smile.
...
Chen Xuan left the Zhang Family and returned to the New Moon Company.
"When you went to the Zhang Family, you didn't fall out with them, did you?" Lin Wanxi asked anxiously.
Chen Xuan chuckled, "Why would I fall out with them? That's not a way to solve problems."
"So did you gain anything from going there? What was Zhang Yan's attitude?" Lin Wanxi looked at him blankly.
Chen Xuan smiled lightly, "I've talked it through. Zhang Yan won't pester me anymore."
Hmm?
Lin Wanxi was full of curiosity, "How did you do it?"
Chen Xuan chuckled and roughly recounted, "I just told Zhang Yan and let her think about it."
"Zhang Yan certainly won't give up her current living conditions to follow me out of Jiangnan City. So this little drama has come to an end."
Lin Wanxi grinned, "You're smart as always, using this way to reveal Zhang Yan's true nature without making things awkward for everyone involved."
Yang Leshan chuckled in response, "I told you, this guy Chen Xuan is so smart, it's like he has multiple brains!"
Lin Wanxi smiled and shook her head, "Since the Zhang Family's matter is basically settled, when do you plan to leave for the provincial capital?"
"I can prepare early and go with you later."
Chen Xuan said softly, "There's no rush now; some things haven't been dealt with yet."
"Once everything here is handled, I can leave."
"A conservative estimate would be at least after the New Year, in early spring."
Lin Wanxi nodded slightly, "Hmm, there's still three months to prepare, enough time to make work arrangements."
Chen Xuan pondered to himself that before leaving, he must ensure his sister has a stable life. He can't let her wander around with him without a place to settle.
It's time to bring about a good match between his sister Chen Yi and Yang Kaize. It's also his intention as a brother to give his sister a true home...
