An ordinary girl would probably agree to such a romantic proposal, but the one in front of her did not belong to an ordinary girl.
After a while, Qin Xi's mood stabilized, and she looked at the other party with a complicated face: "I'm sorry!"
Upon hearing these three words, Yang Chen's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment.
"I understand!" Yang Chen said with a bitter smile. At this moment, he felt as if his heart was bleeding. Even on the battlefield, when a bullet penetrated his chest, it didn't hurt as much as it does now.
Seeing Yang Chen's disappointed look, Qin Xi felt very uncomfortable. She stepped forward, leaned down slightly, and helped Yang Chen, who was kneeling on one knee, up.
"Yang Chen, I hope you can understand that the reason why I am willing to be with you is not because of love, but because of my daughter." Qin Xi looked at Yang Chen with a gentle face and said.
"I can't accept you yet, but that doesn't mean I won't in the future. I hope you can give me some time, okay?"
The first half of Qin Xi's words made Yang Chen miserable, but the second half of his words made Yang Chen immediately overjoyed.
"Can!"
Yang Chen said excitedly: "I can wait until the day you are willing to accept me."
Qin Xi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. She was also very conflicted in her heart. When she saw Yang Chen kneeling down on one knee to propose to her, her heart melted, but her reason told her that this was just touching. The relationship between them
, except for that night five years ago, there is no emotional basis at all.
At the same time, there is a cafe opposite the Starlight Garden Hotel.
Su Chengwu stood in front of the large transparent glass window, looking at the grand scene at the entrance of the Starlight Garden Hotel opposite, feeling extremely emotional in his heart.
"Dr. Su, we've brought you here!" the driver said and left quietly.
As soon as Su Chengwu turned around, he saw the middle-aged woman walking towards him quickly, stretched out her hand and said, "Hello, in-laws!"
"Hello!"
Su Chengwu smiled politely and nodded, then asked: "You are Miss Qin's mother, Mrs. Zhou, right?"
Zhou Yucui quickly pulled Qin Yi beside him and said happily: "I am Xiaoyi's mother Zhou Yucui."
This was the first time Zhou Yucui met Su Chengwu in person. Seeing that Su Chengwu was so polite, she was so excited that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
"In-laws, we will be a family from now on, don't be so polite!" Zhou Yucui said with a smile.
When he was called his in-laws earlier, Su Chengwu thought he had heard wrongly. When he was called again, he confirmed that he had heard correctly and asked in confusion: "Mrs. Zhou, why did you call me your in-laws?"
Zhou Yucui thought that Su Chengwu thought it was too early to call her in-laws, so she took Qin Yi's hand and said, "When Xiaoyi marries your son, won't we become in-laws? If you think it's too early to call us in-laws, then I will call you Su Dong.
After getting married for them..."
"etc!"
Before Zhou Yucui could finish speaking, Su Chengwu quickly interrupted and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Mrs. Zhou, have you misunderstood something?"
"No! Haven't you already asked someone to send you the betrothal gift? I discussed it with Lao Qin and we are very satisfied with this marriage." Zhou Yucui said with a smile.
Su Chengwu suddenly realized this and quickly explained: "Mrs. Zhou, you really misunderstood. That gift is for your eldest daughter Qin Xi."
"What?" Zhou Yucui looked surprised.
The expression on Qin Yi's face suddenly froze. When the Su family gave them gifts, she had been imagining her life after marrying into a wealthy family. It was only today that she realized that those things were not given to her at all. For a moment,
She felt extremely disappointed.
Zhou Yucui was only slightly surprised and smiled awkwardly: "It's okay, it's the same. They are all my daughters anyway. You don't have to worry about Qin Xi's marriage. I will let them go through the divorce procedures tomorrow."
Su Chengwu was shocked and said quickly: "Mrs. Zhou, please don't. I think Mr. Yang and Miss Qin are a perfect match. They are a perfect match. Please don't separate them."
"Dr. Su, what do you mean by this? Didn't you just say that the bride price is for my eldest daughter? Why don't you let her get a divorce? How can she marry into the Su family if she doesn't get a divorce?" Zhou Yucui's face was full of doubts.
Su Chengwu didn't know Yang Chen's status in the family. He wanted to show favor to Yang Chen at the auction, but the other party didn't like him at all, so he thought of a roundabout tactic to get rid of his wife and family first.
Thinking that Yang Chen's identity had almost been exposed just now, Su Chengwu couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly explained: "Mrs. Zhou, you misunderstood. I only have two daughters and no sons."
"What?"
Zhou Yucui suddenly stood up. She had always thought that Su Chengwu's son had fallen in love with Qin Yi. After being happy for so long, she realized that she had made a mistake. Su Chengwu had no son at all.
She looked lost and asked, "Then why did the Su family send betrothal gifts?"
Zhou Yucui felt a little angry and felt that she had been tricked.
Su Chengwu rolled his eyes and said quickly: "Mrs. Zhou, you must have made a mistake. Those are not betrothal gifts, but thank you gifts to express the gratitude of my Su family to your son-in-law."
"Thank you to my son-in-law? You mean, Yang Chen?" Zhou Yucui's eyes were full of disbelief.
Su Chengwu nodded: "That's Mr. Yang Chen. He once helped the Su family, so I prepared a generous gift to express my gratitude! I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding I caused you!"
Su Chengwu secretly thought in his heart: If it weren't for the help of the Yuwen family, there would be no Su family today. He is the heir of the Yuwen family. If I say this, there should be no problem, right?
Qin Yi's heart was full of disappointment, and she smiled bitterly: "It turns out that I thought too much."
After saying that, she turned around and walked to the glass window, looking up at the sky above the hotel opposite, the rose petals flying in the sky, and the colorful fireworks all over the city, her eyes full of envy.
In the evening, Qin Xigang came home.
She was pulled to her side by Zhou Yucui: "Qin Xi, tonight is your and Yang Chen's wedding anniversary. Didn't he give you any gift?"
Qin Xi thought of everything that happened at the Starlight Garden Hotel, and a soft smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Why are you laughing?" Zhou Yucui became a little anxious when she saw Qin Xi didn't speak.
Qin Xi said helplessly: "Mom, don't you want me to divorce Yang Chen? Why do you still want him to give me an anniversary gift?"
Zhou Yucui rolled her eyes at Qin Xi angrily and said, "Do you remember the betrothal gifts that the Su family sent to our door half a month ago?"
Qin Xi said doubtfully: "Didn't you say that those were the betrothal gifts given to Xiaoyi by the Su family?"
"No, we made a mistake. Those things were actually a thank you gift for Yang Chen, that good-for-nothing. It was said that Yang Chen helped the Su family. How is this possible?" Zhou Yucui looked unbelievable.
"Mom, what do you want to express?" Qin Xi asked.
"If it is true that Yang Chen helped the Su family, he must still have a lot of money given by the Su family. These are your marital properties, and half of them belong to you. You should contact him now and explain clearly the division of property.
, otherwise I will see you in court." Zhou Yucui's eyes shone, as if she had seen a lot of money.
