Kicked out of the house, she transformed into the daughter of the richest man.
Her brother's cold shoulder, her mother's favoritism, her sister's schemes?
Nothing to fear, j...
Chapter 422 Engagement
Ji Siman's lips were trembling and his whole body was shaking.
The card that was right in front of him was not a gift at all, but a warning.
A mere 100 million is nothing to Ji Sichen.
But for her, it was a huge sum of money.
Ji Mingkang's overseas company was seized by Fan Zhicai, and both father and daughter were left with no money.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Ji Sichen curled his lips lightly: "It is wise for a girl to protect herself at any time, what do you think?"
Ji Siman took the card tremblingly: "Cousin...cousin, I understand."
The man glanced at her belly and said, "You are not a child anymore. You are going to be a mother soon. It is best to cut your losses in time."
Watching his back disappear into the darkness, Ji Siman felt dazed and almost fell down.
Chi Yan hurried out to support her: "Si Man, what's wrong with you?"
One sentence brought her back to her senses: "Aunt Chi, I'm fine."
The two of them snuggled back to the villa.
Chi Yan frowned: "What did he say?"
Ji Siman shook his head, turned around and held Chi Yan's hand tightly, tears falling from the corners of his eyes: "It's nothing, I'm just worried that Bochuan and Meng Shanshan... are still involved."
She thought of Zhong Bochuan's performance last time and felt uneasy.
She didn't believe that this paranoid man could change so quickly.
With her fickle temperament, she still had to keep some things in reserve.
Chi Yan hugged her tightly: "Good child, don't worry, I only recognize you as my daughter-in-law. That Meng Shanshan has married someone else. Even if she comes back, she can't get close to Bochuan!"
Ji Siman nodded while sobbing.
At night, in the study.
Zhong Bochuan had just come out of the shower and was wearing a bathrobe.
Chi Yan sat opposite him.
"What do you think?"
On the phone, the assistant found out that Meng Shanshan would be returning to China soon.
It’s no wonder that Ji Siman is worried, she is worried too.
Zhong Bochuan closed his eyes in pain: "Mom, I know my limits."
"Bochuan, in this life, you will meet many people who make your heart beat faster, but the one who ends up with you may not be the one you love the most. I know Si Man's purpose in approaching you is not pure."
He looked at his mother in astonishment.
"Si Man has many shortcomings, but she is pregnant with your child. Even if Ji Mingkang has fled now, what cannot be changed is that she is the daughter of the Ji family."
She paused and continued, "She is the only daughter-in-law I have chosen. No matter what Meng Shanshan says to you after she comes back, you must know that you already have a family. Tomorrow, you, Si Man, go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get the marriage certificate. After the engagement ceremony between the Ji and Zhong families is over, the old man and I will go and tell them to hurry up and get married."
The tone brooks no room for argument.
She stood up: "Bochuan, you fell in love with Meng Shanshan because of me, but now, mom wants to tell you clearly that you are not allowed to have any contact with Meng Shanshan anymore. I only recognize Si Man!"
The study returned to silence.
Zhong Bochuan looked at the news about the woman's return to China on his phone and couldn't help but sneer.
~
The Zhong and Ji families were engaged, and many celebrities from all walks of life came.
Time was running out, and the invitations that Old Madam Ji had arranged to send out were to the families that had the closest ties with the Ji family.
Even so, the French manor was packed with people.
The old lady is quite traditional. The windows of her villa are covered with wedding decorations and a lot of balloons are hung, making the place full of joy.
Tan Qinghuan was helping Ye Jinmo put on her dress.
"I heard that our President Ji alarmed all the craftsmen in Europe for this dress."
The makeup artist next to her covered her mouth and laughed.
Ye Jinmo's face was filled with shame: "Sister-in-law!"
"I'm not lying. Last week, your eldest brother complained to me that Ji Sichen was crazy and dragged him out to save face, and he made two trips to Country F."
The makeup artist next to her echoed: "Miss, this dress is indeed very beautiful, especially against your skin tone."
The skirt of this dress is very large and layered. In order to create the effect in the movies, the skirt is covered with diamonds. When she walks, it sparkles like stars, and it is even more gorgeous under the lights.
"Knock knock knock"
There was a knock on the door.
Ji Sichen walked in with a velvet gift box in his hand.
"Oh, can't wait?" Tan Qinghuan joked.
Ji Sichen smiled faintly: "The jewelry just delivered."
Tan Qinghuan took the gift box, which contained a whole set of blue diamonds.
Blue diamonds are rare, let alone of this quality.
The man's eyes never left the person in front of the dressing table.
Tan Qinghuan pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, the makeup is almost done, you can let Jinmo wear the necklace yourself, I will go out and greet the guests with mom."
The makeup artist applied loose powder and left.
This dress has been modified, with a large neckline and an off-shoulder style.
Ye Jinmo covered her collar and said, "Brother Chen, let me do it."
The man said nothing, but picked up the necklace from the gift box and carefully put it on the girl.
The slender white neck makes people want to get closer.
In order to get engaged, Ye Jinmo even got her ears pierced.
The man picked up the earrings and bent down to look at her at eye level.
So close that he could see the down on the girl's face. Her skin was so delicate without any pores, and her long eyelashes were flickering, like an elf.
Ye Jinmo lowered her eyelids and glanced at the man's profile.
The custom-made suit made his figure look tall and straight, and the bow tie at his neckline was the same color as her skirt.
They have known each other for so long, but she still has a crush on him.
My eyes unconsciously fell on his face.
After putting on the earrings, the man looked back and met the girl's eyes.
He chuckled and pecked her lightly on the lips.
She came back to her senses, looked up at him, and her cheeks flushed: "Put it on...have you put it on?"
The man didn't say anything and wanted to kiss her.
She quickly pressed against the man's chest: "No!"
He raised an eyebrow.
"The makeup artist applied several layers of lipstick!"
He smiled helplessly, hugged her waist and stood up, his hot breath sprinkled on her ears: "Then let's kiss again tonight."
She glared at him.
At this time, the housekeeper knocked on the door to announce that the auspicious time had arrived.
Ji Sichen held her hand tightly and walked out the door together.
As they reached the stairs, he helped the girl beside him down the stairs step by step.
The guests below couldn't help but feel a chill.
What a pleasing couple!
Old Madam Ji was wearing a cheongsam today. She looked particularly energetic and was smiling at the two of them.
Mother Zhong's eyes were filled with tears and she looked relieved.
The emcee next to him straightened his back and said, "Okay, the two newlyweds, please come to the stage."
"Today is a very auspicious day. It is the engagement ceremony of Mr. Ji Sichen and Miss Ye Jinmo. Welcome all the guests!"
There was thunderous applause from below!
"A marriage contract, a happy marriage, please sign your names on the marriage certificate."
The marriage certificate had been prepared long ago.
Madam Ji asked an embroidery lady from Jiangnan to make an embroidery piece with mandarin ducks playing in the water on both sides, using Suzhou embroidery with gold thread.
Ye Jinmo wrote down her name carefully.
Looking to the side, the man had his jaw clenched and his face was serious. His former vigorous writing was now written in a very cautious manner.
If she saw correctly, the people around her had sweat on their foreheads.
