Upon hearing the sound at the door, Chen Jiayi immediately realized it was a reporter, and her expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
"I don't want to rush things, but Jialiang and I have already decided to get married!"
The reporters at the entrance heard this explosive news as soon as they arrived!
They rushed over immediately to interview them, their cameras flashing as they took pictures of Chen Jiayi and the others.
"Ms. Chen, when is your wedding date with Mr. Shen?"
"Mr. Shen, were you on a date with Ms. Chen last night?"
"!"
Chen Jiayi and Shen Jialiang exchanged a glance, and then, with perfect understanding, dismissed the reporters present.
In the end, Chen Jiayi got engaged to Shen Jialiang without really understanding what was going on.
After confirming the order, Shen Jialiang went home to prepare.
Watching Shen Jialiang's hurried departure, Chen Jiayi looked somewhat dazed.
She snapped out of her daze, then looked at her parents' teasing expressions and immediately realized what was going on.
"Fine, you guys did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Lan Meixuan cried out and grabbed Chen Jiayi's shoulder.
"We knew you were in trouble last night, and later we found out that Shen Jialiang took you away..."
As she spoke, her words became increasingly unclear.
Because Chen Jiayi looked at her mother with a somewhat speechless expression.
She laughed out loud, amused. "What if I don't want to?"
Lan Meixuan froze, then looked at Chen Jiayi seriously.
“Jiayi, you are your mother’s daughter, and your mother certainly knows what her daughter is thinking. I also know whether you have feelings for Professor Shen or not. If that person last night was Professor Shen, but you didn’t have feelings for him, I would still have brought you out.”
Hearing her mother's explanation, Chen Jiayi felt a little better.
Her expression showed a mix of grievance and exhaustion.
"Mom, we must find out who plotted against me last night!"
Chen Qiming said firmly, "I've already found out what happened. It was Zhao Xiaobao from your team who did it."
Zhao Xiaobao knew that Chen Jiayi was the daughter of the richest man, and immediately had wicked thoughts.
After completing four years of study at Ocean University of China, even if you enter a research institute, you still have to work hard for another three or four years, and you might still end up as an assistant.
That adds up to 7 years. Zhao Xiaobao was already 28 when he took the college entrance exam, and by the time he graduated from university and started working, he was already over 30.
Zhao Xiaobao wasn't good-looking, and his family wasn't well-off either. Feeling that he was getting too old to wait, he started to have wicked thoughts.
However, Zhao Xiaobao vehemently denied it.
He insisted that he didn't do it and shifted the main responsibility to Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei is Chen Jiayi's current mentor. When she heard this name, Chen Jiayi was stunned for a few seconds.
They quickly realized what was happening.
Are they related by blood?
Chen Qiming nodded. "Yes, Zhao Xiaobao is Zhao Wei's child."
That would be difficult.
Now that Zhao Wei is nearing retirement age, he has no room for advancement, but his children still have a future to look forward to.
If Zhao Wei took full responsibility for his son's sake, and Zhao Xiaobao was not involved at all, at most he helped her when she went downstairs, it would be difficult to sentence Zhao Xiaobao.
In this day and age, surveillance is not yet advanced. Only in very important places in the country will there be human surveillance cameras watching.
However, given the Chen family's current status, dealing with Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiaobao would be a minor issue.
Chen Jiayi ultimately decided to hand the matter over to the police.
From childhood, Chen Jiayi always believed that she should find the police for any problems.
.
The Shen family.
When Chen's mother saw her son return, she asked him with a curious expression.
"Shen Jialiang, what were you doing all night last night? Tell me the truth!"
Shen Jialiang returned to Haicheng yesterday, but he didn't go home all night.
"Mom doesn't have time to explain, hurry up and go buy the things you need to get a wife."
Chen Meiyuan: "?"
She was completely bewildered, and in the end, Shen Jialiang dragged her out for a big shopping trip.
In this day and age, families with the means will buy a five-wheeled vehicle and a radio when they get married.
The five items Shen Jialiang bought were a bicycle, a sewing machine, a watch, a color television, and a camera. The first item was a radio.
After buying these, Shen Jialiang went and bought a lot of gifts.
In Haicheng, it's considered unlucky to propose marriage with an odd number of people.
Chen Meiyuan, having been through this before, always bought in even numbers when she went shopping.
She had originally bought two cartons of cigarettes, two bottles of wine, two kilograms of wedding candy, and two cans of tea.
Fruits like apples, oranges, and bananas are always bought in even numbers.
Chen Meiyuan also bought some pastries, tonics, meat, and fabric.
Now, Chen Meiyuan mostly makes her own clothes at home, and the fabrics she chooses are generally of good quality.
Chen Meiyuan originally wanted to buy pears, but then she thought that the pronunciation of "pear" sounds like "separation" in Chinese, so she decided not to buy them.
After everything was bought, Shen Jialiang came over and saw that there were only two bottles of wine and two packs of cigarettes.
He immediately said, "That's not enough, buy some more."
Then, Shen Jialiang took the ticket and bought four cartons of cigarettes and four bottles of wine to make a lucky number.
After everything was almost ready, Shen Jialiang drove to pick up his father.
Mr. Shen was picked up by Shen Jialiang as soon as he got off work. He was shoved into the back seat with a blank look on his face. There wasn't enough room in the back, so he had to squeeze in with a bunch of gifts.
Shen Gangpeng asked in confusion, "Why are you buying so much stuff?"
Shen Jialiang answered his father's questions while driving.
"They're coming to propose marriage."
Shen Gangpeng said "Oh," and it took him a while to react.
His voice was shrill, "What did you say? Which family are you proposing marriage to? You didn't even tell me about such a big thing as coming to propose marriage, and you just picked me up like this?"
“It’s the Chen family,” Shen Jialiang replied calmly.
Which Chen family?
Shen Gangpeng had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem; he was thinking of Chen Qiming.
"That's right, it's the Chen family you're thinking of."
Shen Jialiang glanced at his father, then smiled and answered.
Shen Gangpeng, who was sitting in the back, hadn't reacted yet. After he did, he asked incredulously.
"Is it the Chen family that Chen Qiming is from?"
Shen Jialiang nodded. Chen Meiyuan turned around and saw that Shen Gangpeng also looked shocked, which made her feel relieved.
Today, in the same shock, she helped Shen Jialiang buy, buy, buy.
Chen Meiyuan originally wanted to mock Shen Gangpeng, but when she saw a complicated expression flash across Shen Gangpeng's face, she immediately realized that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?"
When Shen Gangpeng saw Chen Meiyuan, he said "Oh" and smiled.
"nothing."
He'd heard that Chen Qiming's daughter was divorced, but he didn't know if it was true or not...
Although their family is quite open-minded, who wouldn't want their son to marry a clean and tidy wife?
Chen Meiyuan subconsciously felt that Shen Gangpeng was hiding something from her, but she was quickly distracted by Shen Jialiang.
"Mom, how about we give 28,000 as a bride price when we propose marriage later?"
"What? So many?"
