Chapter 53
"I will only have peace and warmth in my life, with only one woman," Ye Jinghuai said in a voice that was clearly not loud.
Yet it seemed as if everyone in the banquet hall had heard it.
The impact was tremendous.
At that moment, An Nuan's heart fluttered with inexplicable palpitations.
Although she knew everything was just an act, being confessed to like this by Ye Jinghuai still made her a little overwhelmed.
She could only be grateful that she had already lived 32 years.
If she had really been 22 years old, she might have actually been moved by Ye Jinghuai.
It had to be said.
After Ye Jinghuai's reminder, she suddenly realized that Gu Yan Sheng was truly worthless.
Gu Yan Sheng was naturally also ridiculed by Ye Jinghuai's words and unable to hold his head high.
Clearly Ye Jinghuai was an unlearned and idle playboy.
Yet suddenly he possessed so much glory.
Even the things Gu Yan Sheng had worked so hard for so many years to obtain seemed to come easily for Ye Jinghuai.
The more she thought about it.
The angrier she became, the more furious she felt.
He was the first young master of Qing City, how could he possibly accept being surpassed like this?
But.
What could he do if he didn't accept it?!
Everything Ye Jinghuai had said was the truth, he couldn't refute any of it at all.
Suppressing the tremendous emotions, he saw Ye Jinghuai maintain his modest elegance and politely ask Wen QingCui, "Granny An, is there anything else you're unsatisfied with?"
At that moment, Wen QingCui was also left speechless by Ye Jinghuai.
Who could have imagined that a man with such an extremely bad reputation would have such a glorious day!
There was a somewhat tense and awkward atmosphere.
Ye Jinghuai smiled, when he smiled he really was peerlessly elegant, "Since there is nothing else, I will take An Nuan to get our marriage certificate."
Marriage certificate.
An Nuan was startled.
Although she hadn't said it at the time, she had assumed they wouldn't get a marriage certificate.
Holding a wedding ceremony was fine, announcing their marriage to the public was fine, but they shouldn't involve any legal effects.
That way.
When they separated, there wouldn't be so much paperwork to deal with.
However now......
An Nuan was unperturbed on the surface.
Maybe Ye Jinghuai was just saying it for others to hear.
After saying that, he embraced her and was about to leave.
"Wait a moment!" Wen QingCui suddenly called out to stop them again.
At that moment, An Nuan was struggling to keep her emotions in check.
Yet Ye Jinghuai could still remain completely calm and unruffled. He said, "Granny An, is there anything else you want to instruct?"
"What you said is very right, I was rash." Ye Jinghuai seemed to agree very much with what Wen QingCui said.
Hearing Ye Jinghuai say this, Wen QingCui couldn't help revealing a smug expression, thinking she had prevailed.
The next second.
"Marriage is not just the matter of two people, but of two families. Without agreement between the elders, if you two rashly go get a certificate, do you even have the slightest family education left!" Wen QingCui was still trying to find ways to stop them.
Now it seemed she couldn't control An Nuan anymore.
But An Nuan still had to listen to her parents' wishes, no matter how outstanding Ye Jinghuai's performance was just now, his original reputation was still not good, it was difficult to turn things around in an instant. So An Nuan's parents would not possibly agree. Plus, would Ye's parents agree? They wouldn't possibly have no opinion on the abrupt gaining of a daughter-in-law.
If the engagement was not successful, they could become enemies instead of in-laws, it would not be worth the loss.
"Granny is absolutely right. Marriage is not child's play, it can't be taken so casually. So, with all the guests present, I will offer the Ye family's betrothal gifts," Ye Lu Ping said, clearly having made preparations already, "Steward Zhang."
"Yes, Sir," a middle-aged man respectfully came forward.
Facing everyone, he took out a list and read loudly and clearly, "Today, Ye Jinghuai of the Ye family takes An Nuan, eldest daughter of the An family, as his wife. The betrothal gifts prepared are as follows: 1. Dowry of 88 million yuan; 2. One luxury residential building in Phoenix Bay owned by Ye Real Estate; 3. One luxury car worth millions; 4. 5% of Ye Group's original shares gifted to An Nuan as premarital property."
The scene was truly shocked.
Although the previous gifts were also priceless, they couldn't compare to the last gift of original shares.
As the head of the four great families, the country's richest, with the group's market value over 100 billion yuan, just 5% of the shares were already worth over 20 billion yuan. But the key point was, the Ye family was gifting the original Ye family shares that only they could possess, gifting them to An Nuan as her premarital property, wasn't this demonstrating An Nuan's status in the Ye family?!
This sincerity was something no one could reject.
So after Steward Zhang finished reading the list of betrothal gifts, Ye Lu Ping enthusiastically said to An Nuan's parents who had also come on stage, "Future in-laws, do you think the betrothal gifts are reasonable? If there is anything you're unsatisfied with, please feel free to mention it."
How could they dare be unsatisfied?
When An Nuan married Gu Yan Sheng, the Gu family didn't give them a single cent, and instead demanded 200 million yuan from their family.
Now the Ye family had shown absolutely sufficient sincerity. How could they feel ashamed to reject it?
Moreover.
An Yanyuan glanced at An Nuan.
It was an inquiring look, asking if this was all her arrangement?
Actually it wasn't.
She had never considered needing Ye Jinghuai's parents to help act out this play with them. Even with saving face, she couldn't alarm them.
But things were already at this point.
She couldn't consider too much now.
She nodded slightly at her parents.
An Yanyuan was still somewhat helpless in the end.
He had originally thought his daughter was just calling off her engagement, yet didn't expect she would become engaged again.
Although Ye Jinghuai looked pretty good and had some achievements, after all......
Oh well.
Since An Nuan had decided, he would of course unconditionally support her.
He smiled very enthusiastically, "Old Ye, you really are too generous, we didn't even provide a dowry, yet your betrothal gifts are heavy enough!"
"Not heavy at all, it's appropriate. Besides, with An Nuan marrying my Jinghuai, it's Jinghuai who is marrying above his status," Ye Lu Ping said very sincerely, "This rotten brat being able to marry your princess, he really has accumulated blessings for eight lifetimes!"
"I won't allow you to disparage my son-in-law like this!" An Yanyuan pretended to be angry.
Ye Lu Ping was overjoyed, "Old An means he agrees to this marriage."
"How could I not agree? You've already done this much, if I didn't agree you'd beat me to death. Besides, marriage is the children's own business, they're happy as long as the young couple is happy, what right do we have to interfere?"
This statement clearly slapped Wen QingCui's face swollen.
She had originally wanted them to oppose this marriage, yet didn't expect the two families to instantly reach agreement, and the marriage was thus officially settled.
