With its immense wealth and influence, the YUN Group has no need to consider the Shen and Gong families at all.
Like the Royal Group, it is a company that even the wealthy can only look up to, because it is even richer!
"Ayan, if your family knew I was Lian Qingyun's daughter, would they agree to us being together? My family background is far superior to Gong Yun's."
Shen Xiuyan hugged her even tighter. "Yes."
"Why don't you tell them?"
Lian Cheng has kept a low profile for so long, but if there's no other choice, he can certainly be high-profile.
After all, it's a fact that she's Lian Qingyun's daughter, not a stolen identity that can be kept secret forever!
“It’s not time yet. The Shen family members are all bad. If they find out, they’ll try to gain some benefits…” Shen Xiuyan knows them too well!
"Really?" This is actually one of the reasons why she chooses to keep a low profile.
She's not unaware that if someone suddenly reveals they're very wealthy, people who weren't very close to you before can instantly become your best friends.
If the news that Lian Cheng is the daughter of the richest man, Lian Qingyun, were to break...
"Baby, I don't want our lives to be disrupted. Trust me, I will handle it."
"Actually, your grandfather did come to me with a check. Who knows if your father and grandfather were faking illness to threaten you? What are you going to do then?"
That's how it's always portrayed in melodramatic romance dramas!
When a prince falls in love with Cinderella, his family will try every means to get rid of her!
"Avoiding contact."
Aren't you worried?
"They're all faking illness, so there's nothing to worry about."
"What if he's really sick?" Old Shen is getting on in years, so it's not impossible.
"Easy, just take him to the hospital!"
Lian Cheng: ...
For the time being, it was really impossible to find fault with him!
--
Shen Xiuyan's phone rang, and Lian Cheng saw that it was Old Shen calling.
"Hurry up and answer it, your grandfather."
"Never mind." He had to tell Lian Cheng to go take a shower!
"Answer it quickly, the old man is getting on in years..."
Shen Xiuyan then answered the call but did not speak.
He didn't even call him "Grandpa".
"Your dad just called to say you're getting engaged to Gong Yun?" The old man's voice was filled with excitement.
Although Lian Cheng is a decent child, his family background is far inferior to Gong Yun's.
“Dream on,” Shen Xiuyan coldly uttered these two words. “He’s not thinking straight, and you’re just fantasizing?”
"You brat, talking about your father like that?"
"Did I ever consider him my father?"
Mr. Shen: ...
"Xiuyan, you've been smart since you were little. Gongyun is the best choice for a marriage alliance."
Shen Xiuyan had the phone on speakerphone, and even Lian Cheng heard what Elder Shen said.
"Grandpa, I don't need an arranged marriage."
"Your dad said he doesn't care how many minor celebrities you keep on the side, but your wife must be Gong Yun..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiuyan felt a pang of panic.
What if Lian Cheng gets angry?
Lian Cheng was genuinely surprised, but she didn't seem angry at all; instead, she seemed more like a bystander watching the drama unfold.
Shen Xiuyan looked resentful!
Lian Cheng calmly patted his shoulder, indicating that he shouldn't mind.
The two exchanged glances without making a sound.
Old Shen on the other end of the phone continued, "Your father has been a womanizer since he was young, so his words are not advisable. Grandpa thinks that if you break up with the young starlet and then marry Gong Yun, everyone will be happy..."
Lian Cheng covered her mouth, almost bursting out laughing.
It's truly a shame that an old man who has controlled the Shen family for so many years could be given such a terrible idea.
