Under Yan Lei's anxious gaze, Huo Yanxi nodded slightly: "Yes, if you are really so anxious to marry me... but the premise is that the Yan family's land belongs to me."
The anxious look in Yan Lei's eyes disappeared when she heard this: "Don't worry, I will satisfy you whatever you want."
Soon, they set an engagement date, which was on the 25th of this month, half a month away.
Their conversation was very short. Not long after, the two of them came out of the box, got in their cars and left. It was completely impossible to tell that they were getting engaged.
Huo Yanxi then asked Gu Sinian to arrange the engagement banquet.
When Gu Sinian heard that the engagement party was fifteen days later, he couldn't help but be surprised: "So soon?" He couldn't help but look at the boss a few more times. Is he really going to marry that Miss Yan? Is he going to stop guarding Ye Ruge?
Huo Yanxi was about to laugh and snorted: "How fast is this? She also said she would marry me next month."
Gu Sinian was shocked again: "In such a hurry? You shouldn't..."
"What shouldn't?"
Gu Sinian: "This Miss Yan doesn't seem to be someone who hates marrying."
Huo Yanxi squinted at the window, and her deep voice was teasing: "Maybe it's because I'm too charming. No woman can refuse me."
Gu Sinian: "..." Did the boss forget that he was just rejected by Isabella?
He then said calmly: "As long as they give me the land, it doesn't matter when they get married."
Gu Sinian looked at him for the last time and said nothing more. He knew why the boss was obsessed with that piece of land.
He wanted to bury Ye Ruge's ashes there because Mr. Feng Shui said that it was a treasure land, a treasure land suitable for burial.
…
The black car drove into Yan's house.
The car stopped for a while, and Yan Lei was still sitting in the car in a daze, with no intention of getting out of the car.
The housekeeper couldn't help but come over and knock on the car window: "Miss, the old man is still waiting for you at home."
Yan Lei suddenly came back to her senses and saw Butler Yan's polite face, but there was clearly disdain for her in his eyes.
In fact, she knew that not only the strict housekeeper, but also everyone in the family looked down upon her and did not take her as a young lady seriously at all.
Mr. Yan was waiting for her to reply. She couldn't wait any longer, so she got out of the car and entered the house.
The Yan family can be said to be one of the three major families in Jiangcheng after the Huo family.
The Yan family still retains the pure Chinese decoration style, and walking inside is the cloister.
Crossing the screen and walking into the living room, the tables and chairs placed here are all made of the best huanghuali. There are also vases from the Qing Dynasty not far away.
It was an elegant place with ancient style, but when she walked in, she only felt a sense of depression.
"Back." The old man said in a rough voice.
Yan Lei was still startled. She turned around and saw clearly the old man sitting there in a dark place.
She took a deep breath and then walked over: "Yes, I'm back."
"How was the talk?" Mr. Yan held a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and half-closed his eyes.
"He...he said he should get engaged first and then get married. I made an appointment with him to have an engagement party on the 25th of this month. If we want to get married, we can do it next month." Yan Lei lowered her head, not daring to look at the old man opposite.
.
The old man did not speak, and fiddled with the prayer beads in his hand calmly.
She thought for a while and then said: "Also, he said that when he got engaged, he wanted that piece of land for the engagement ceremony."
"That piece of land?" Mr. Yan didn't expect Huo Yanxi to want that piece of land so much. In fact, the value of that piece of land was not very high.
He finally raised his eyelids and stared at the junior opposite with his cloudy eyes. His intimidating gaze made people couldn't help but send chills down their spines.
"This is nothing. You should know very well that if you want to save their lives, you must get married as soon as possible."
Yan Lei clenched her fists unconsciously, suppressing the humiliation and grievance in her heart: "I... know."
