Chapter 310 The Sons of Aristocratic Families
"Don't you think aristocratic families are cruel? That's right, aristocratic families are just that cruel. Survival of the fittest and elimination of the unfit." As she spoke, Mu Nujiao was about to pick up the red wine that had just been drunk again.
However, before she could bring the wine glass to her lips, it was snatched away by Jiang Han.
"Drink less alcohol, too much alcohol is bad for your health." Jiang Han said, pushing the peeled lobster meat in front of Mu Nujiao. At the same time, he went to the refrigerator, took two apples from it, and went to the kitchen.
However, as she was about to enter the kitchen, she looked at Mu Nujiao and said with a smile, "Have some late-night snack first, I'll make you some juice and we'll continue talking later."
"Do you know you're ruining the mood?" Mu Nu said coquettishly.
Although she was a little upset that Jiang Han took away her wine glass and wouldn't let her drink, her mood immediately improved when she saw that Jiang Han was making her juice. Not only that, but the words Ai Tutu had told her before also came to mind, and her pretty face blushed unconsciously.
When Jiang Han brought out the freshly squeezed apple juice, Mu Nujiao's blush hadn't faded. However, Jiang Han didn't pay attention, assuming it was just Mu Nujiao's alcohol kicking in. He placed the apple juice in front of Mu Nujiao and then sat back down.
"You can continue now, your loyal listener Jiang Han is listening online," Jiang Han said with a smile.
Mu Nujiao rolled her eyes at Jiang Han, but still picked up the cup in front of her and took a sip of apple juice. To be honest, the sweet juice with a hint of sourness was not bad. Then she pinched two lobster tails and put them into her cherry-like mouth, chewing them as if she was enjoying herself.
"How is it? The taste is pretty good, isn't it?" Jiang Han asked.
"It's alright," Mu Nujiao said, taking a tissue to wipe the grease from the corner of her mouth.
He then continued, "Where was I? Oh right, there's another type of family member I haven't mentioned, is there?"
"Another type of family member is someone who continuously improves by relying on the resources provided by the family, eventually becoming an elder or other powerful figure in the family. This model is like a loan. In order to surpass others in the same grade, you can indeed win at the starting line by obtaining a lot of cultivation resources from the family, but in return, you have to produce results to show the family."
"If your performance does not meet the family's expectations when you take away the cultivation resources, then everything you have will still be controlled by the family. You will do whatever the family tells you to do, but the treatment will be better than that of the previous type of family member."
"But essentially there's no difference. You'll still be arranged into a marriage by your family, only the marriage will be to an outstanding member of another family—similar to the forced marriage plots in novels and TV dramas," Mu Nujiao said self-deprecatingly.
"So you're being forced into marriage?" Jiang Han asked, frowning.
"Not for now, but I'm afraid that if I ask my family for too many cultivation resources, I won't be able to meet their expectations and will lose my freedom, becoming a tool for family marriage." Mu Nujiao bit her lip, her eyes filled with fear for the future.
"How about I take care of you? Although I don't have as much money as my family gives me, I can still support a beauty like you," Jiang Han whispered in Mu Nujiao's ear.
Jiang Han's breath brushed against Mu Nujiao's fair neck, but it made Mu Nujiao's pretty face turn red instantly. She didn't expect Jiang Han to say such shameless things. If it weren't for her strong will, Mu Nujiao would have agreed directly.
"Let's talk about it when I really can't repay the family's 'loan' anymore," Mu Nujiao said in a barely audible voice, her head lowered.
She didn't care whether Jiang Han heard her or not. She picked up the apple juice on the table and drank it all in one gulp. Then she immediately ran upstairs. She was afraid that if she was too slow, she would get herself into trouble tonight. Ai Tutu had already gotten herself into trouble. She had to hold her ground and couldn't give in.
Jiang Han smiled and glanced at Mu Nujiao, who was rushing upstairs. Did she really think he couldn't hear her if she kept her voice down?
The Mu family of Shanghai probably wants Mu Nujiao to join the National Team. It will be very difficult for Mu Nujiao, who did not participate in the Academy Nomination Competition, to get a spot. He doesn't know exactly how many votes the Jiang family has. If they have extra votes, they can ask the Jiang family to vote for Mu Nujiao.
In the World University Competition, the major powers in China do not have many votes. Ordinary large families or second- or third-rate universities are not qualified to have voting rights. Only powerful families can have one or two votes, and some extremely powerful families can even have three votes. Of course, there are only a few families or powers with three votes.
He wasn't sure whether the old man would agree to his request, since the voting rights in the World University Competition were very valuable.
The Mu family will definitely vote for Mu Nujiao. If the Jiang family also votes for her, Mu Nujiao will have to try to get two more votes from other places. All she can do is ask the Jiang family for help. As for other forces, forget about it.
P.S.: Please vote for me!
