Chapter 623 Double the Dowry

He Qingrong was speechless when she saw her daughter like this, and couldn't help but say something fair, "Liang Zicheng's ex-girlfriend is no less pretty than you. Why do you believe that he fell in love with you at first sight?" After all, she is her biological daughter, and the blow cannot be too harsh.

Xiao Shiqiu nodded in agreement and looked at He Qingrong with rare approval.

"Okay, since you two are so determined to be together, and you're both adults, then tell me what your plans are, and I'll assess their feasibility."

Xiao Shiqiu decisively gave up trying to reason with Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tiantian's expression lit up with joy, "I plan to..."

Xiao Shiqiu interrupted her, "I want to hear what Liang Zicheng has to say."

Liang Zicheng took a deep breath and said calmly, "I plan to hold the wedding with Tiantian first, let Tiantian take a leave of absence from school to give birth to the baby, and then let my mother take care of the baby, and Tiantian can go back to school. By then, I will be working and can support them both. We will definitely live a happy life."

"Your support is to ensure that Tiantian doesn't starve to death?" Xiao Shiqiu sneered, "Do you know what kind of life she has led since she was a child? I won't even talk about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even the bag she's holding right now, I'm afraid you can't even afford it with your annual income. What makes you think Tiantian will be happy with you?"

Liang Zicheng's face flushed red, and he stammered, unable to speak. Xiao Tiantian became anxious, "Dad, didn't you prepare a lot of dowry for me? You said that you could never spend all that dowry in several lifetimes."

Xiao Shiqiu began to pinch his eyebrows again. It seemed that this silly girl was giving him a headache.

He pondered for a few seconds, stared straight at Liang Zicheng, and asked, "If my Tiantian was just the daughter of an ordinary family, would you really still love her?"

Liang Zicheng blurted out: "Of course, I love her as a person, and I don't want anything else from her."

Xiao Shiqiu pursed his lips and said, "Okay, then as long as you agree to a few conditions, I will agree to let her give birth to the child."

Xiao Tiantian was suddenly surprised and happy, "I knew my dad still loves me."

He Qingrong's face changed and she wanted to say something, but Xiao Shiqiu stopped her with his eyes.

A look of joy flashed across Liang's mother's face, but Liang Zicheng asked cautiously, "Boss Xiao, what are your conditions?"

Xiao Shiqiu said leisurely, "Since you don't want Tiantian's money, and Tiantian doesn't mind going through hardships with you, then I will keep her dowry for her until I think she is capable of keeping her assets."

Liang's mother was immediately anxious. "How can you be such a parent? Your daughter doesn't even have a dowry when she gets married. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at when you tell others about it?"

Xiao Shiqiu sneered, "We've already accepted our daughter's pregnancy, so what's left to worry about is the dowry being laughed at?"

Liang's mother choked up, but still said awkwardly: "You can't not give her a dowry, after all, she is my daughter."

"Didn't your son say that he would always love Tiantian even if she was from an ordinary family? Let's just follow the rules of ordinary families." Xiao Shiqiu said slowly.

"What rules?" Liang's mother also showed vigilance on her face.

"No matter how much your family pays as betrothal gifts, my family will double the dowry. Is that okay?" Xiao Shiqiu smiled sincerely, as if he was really discussing the marriage with his in-laws. "Also, will your family provide the wedding house? If so, my family will give you an extra car as a dowry."

Liang Zicheng and his mother looked grim. They hadn't expected Xiao Shiqiu to be so ruthless. After a few seconds of silence, Liang Zicheng said hesitantly, "Boss Xiao, I've already told Tiantian that my family is struggling and can't afford the betrothal gift for now. As for a house, we have a bungalow in our hometown where we can get married."
