Chapter 1001: Wedding without a groom



The Su family's doorstep was filled with so many gift boxes tied with red satin that there was nowhere to put them.

Sitting at the head of the living room was a silver-haired old man wearing a dark green hand-embroidered cheongsam, twirling red sandalwood Buddhist beads in his hands, with a kind face. Next to him sat a noble lady with an extremely dignified and elegant temperament.

Today is the day when the Rong family proposes marriage to the Su family.

It is specifically for the Crown Prince Rong Zhan of the Rong family, who suffers from a hidden illness and has been in a coma for half a month, to propose marriage to the eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Yang, who matches his horoscope.

"Master Su and Madam Su, please take a look and see if there is anything missing in the betrothal gift list." The old lady put down the teacup in her hand, pushed the red brocade box towards Su Huai, smiled amiably, and spoke in a slow, old voice.

Su Huai picked up the book-sized piece of rice paper on the brocade box, slowly lowered his gaze, his hands trembled slightly, and the greed and excitement in his eyes were obvious.

Xu Yi, who was standing by, smiled elegantly and gracefully, but could not help but lean over to take a look at the gift list out of curiosity. She was stunned by the numbers on the first line.

One billion.

The betrothal fee alone is 1 billion.

As expected of the most prominent and wealthy family in the imperial capital, if they don’t take action, it’s fine, but once they do, they will make a stunning debut.

Su Yang sat calmly beside her, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, sipping the black tea in his hand, and his clear and calm almond-shaped eyes swept lightly over Old Lady Rong.

He glanced at the bright yellow aura surrounding her, then narrowed his eyes and looked away.

Yellow luck represents brightness and longevity.

"Madam, isn't this betrothal gift a bit too much?" Su Huai came back to his senses from his shock and pretended to hesitate.

"Haha, not much, not much. Yangyang is a pretty and lovely child, and we love her very much. I'm afraid that I won't treat Yangyang well with these betrothal gifts!" Yun Chuxian smiled, with a ladylike demeanor in her brows, and her voice was gentle and clean.

"That's not the case, Madam Rong. To be in your and the old lady's eyes is the blessing that my Yangyang has accumulated in several lifetimes. How can it be treated unfairly?" Xu Yi continued with a smile, his expression greedy, trying his best to restrain his inner excitement.

Su Yang glanced at Xu Yi, who had a hypocritical face, and sneered in his heart.

"So, should the old lady and Madam Rong pick a date and let the two children get engaged first or get married right away?"

Su Huai put down the gift list with great excitement, his words were sincere and his eyes were filled with shrewdness and calculation.

"marry."

A cold voice suddenly sounded.

Su Yang raised his eyelids slightly and looked at Old Madam Rong and Yun Chuxian: "What do you think, Madam?"

Su Huai and Xu Yi both frowned after hearing this. If they married into a noble family like the Rong family, the engagement would surely be very grand. They would also be able to make friends with many noble families and then hold a wedding afterwards. The benefits involved should not be underestimated.

Their original intention was just to be polite, but deep down they wanted to start with the engagement.

"In that case, let's do it this Friday. It's a good day for a wedding. What do Master Su and Madam Su think?" Madam Rong was silent for a while, her vicissitudes eyes wandered over Su Yang, and she asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes, the date chosen by the old lady must be good, so let's settle it." Su Huai gritted his teeth and agreed, his expression gloomy.

Xu Yi pursed her lips and glared at Su Yang with a harsh and angry look.

You little bastard, you don't speak when you should, and you talk nonsense when you shouldn't, deliberately making things difficult for her.

She was so mad.

——

After the meeting, Su Huailiu had lunch with the old lady and Yun Chuxian, but left after not sitting for long.

"Who told you to just get married? Do you know Rong Zhan's status? Marrying into the Rong family would be a big deal. The whole imperial capital would be shocked. Now, because of your words about getting married, our Su family has lost an opportunity to stand at the top of the imperial capital."

As soon as he entered, Su Huai's furious roar was deafening.

Su Yang stared at his red face indifferently, and pursed her red lips calmly: "So, in father's eyes, the 1 billion is not enough after all, so why didn't you increase the stakes in front of Mrs. Rong just now? I think that even if you ask for another 1 billion, with the strength of the Rong family, we can afford it, and we will definitely give it to you."

"you……"

Su Huai was furious and slammed the table hard, shaking the teacup on the table. "Su Yang, you are becoming more and more impertinent and rude when talking to me now. Who do you think I am doing this for? Isn't it for the future of the entire Su family?"

Su Yang sneered, his eyes contemptuous and casual: "Then father really worked hard for the Su family. You admit that my little sister stole my boyfriend for the whole Su family, and let me marry Rong Zhan for the Su family. You really worked hard."

“Pah—”

As the words fell, the sound of crisp applause echoed in the study.

The tense atmosphere gradually became depressing.

"presumptuous."

It seemed that Su Yang's tone made Su Huai feel that his status as the head of the family was challenged. Su Huai roared in anger and the finger he was pointing at her began to tremble.

"You are increasingly disregarding me as your father. How dare you talk to me like that? Did I raise you with so much hardship just for you to talk back to me?"

Su Yang's cheeks were slightly numb and she looked dazed. Compared with the slap she received a month ago because of an argument with him about Su Mo stealing her boyfriend, this slap was indeed somewhat unexpected.

Su Huai's drama of deep love between father and daughter, which he had performed for eighteen years, has now been shattered.

Sure enough, living your life over again really helps you see many things clearly.

The raging fire in her previous life seemed to have happened just yesterday, so vivid in her mind that it burned her heart.

Perhaps the fragments recalled in his mind were too heavy, causing Su Yang's eyes to be dead silent, with sorrow and hatred welling up in his heart. His eyes were extremely cold, his hands were clenched into fists, and he spoke slowly word by word.

"Then please think carefully about it, father. The wedding is coming soon. What kind of dowry should I use to maintain your noble face? I think that the Rong family has paid 1 billion yuan for the betrothal gift, and Mrs. Rong has always been superstitious and believes in Buddhism. Father should not use the box of dead people's things in the warehouse as my dowry, right?"

Perhaps his thoughts were exposed, Su Huai sneered: "What nonsense are you talking about? Those are treasures blessed by the master, and there are also your mother's things in them. You don't know the value of them!"

Su Yang sneered, "Since father treasures those things so much, then you can keep them. I don't want the dowry. The Rong family won't care whether I have a dowry or not. Also, don't label everything as my mother's. You just gave them to her unilaterally, and she thought they were dirty and confiscated them."

"you……"

Su Huai was speechless for a moment, and then he saw Su Yang turned around indifferently and walked out of the study.

On May 9th, a grand and special wedding was held in the imperial capital. The venue was packed with guests and it caused a sensation in the whole city, but it also made the Su family a laughing stock.

In a marriage between wealthy families, it is probably unheard of that there is only the bride, wearing a phoenix crown and a red bridal robe, standing alone in the center of the wedding listening to the oath, while the groom is not seen.

Discussions about "Su family selling daughter for sky-high bride price" quickly topped all major news platforms.
