Ye Junfei's words touched the softest spot in Lin Yunzhi's heart.
His love affair with Qu Shuangyue in his youth was also extremely tortuous; Qu Shuangyue was the only one for him.
He took a deep breath and said, "You're absolutely right. You can't measure a man's feelings by things like power and wealth."
He looked at Ye Junfei as he said this: "But as you said, there is a lack of kinship in the Pingnan Prince's Mansion, and you are not close to your father."
"Your brothers are no pushovers either. After Yan'er marries you, how will you protect her?"
Ye Junfei glanced sideways at the Prince of Pingnan and said in a low voice, "In the Prince of Pingnan's mansion, the incompetent can only be killed and used as fertilizer for the flowers and plants."
"Those who survived were all tigers and wolves."
“I did not want to be a tiger or wolf, but if I want to survive and not let my wife suffer any grievances, I am willing to become the fiercest wolf in the Prince of Pingnan’s mansion.”
"Whoever bullies her, I will kill them!"
As he finished speaking, his entire being was imbued with a strong, sharp killing intent.
Looking at Ye Junfei like this, the Prince of Pingnan felt extremely complicated.
Ye Junfei was sent to the capital at a young age, and the relationship between him and his father was not very close, but Ye Junfei was still his son after all.
He had heard some things about Ye Junfei in the capital while he was at the Prince of Pingnan’s residence, and he originally thought that Ye Junfei was already ruined.
But when Ye Junfei returned to the Pingnan Prince's Mansion half a year ago, he knew he was wrong.
Ye Junfei was not spoiled; instead, he grew into a fierce lone wolf.
In terms of both intellect and methods, he far surpassed his second son, Ye Jingxian, whom he had painstakingly cultivated.
Having such an outstanding son should have been a happy thing, but he was not close to anyone in the Pingnan Prince's Mansion and his methods were extremely ruthless.
The fact that Ye Junfei, with such a talent, succeeded to the throne of the Prince of Pingnan caused the Prince of Pingnan great concern.
He looked at Ye Junfei and said, "You're talking nonsense! I treat all my sons equally, and I love them all very much!"
Ye Junfei was too lazy to argue with him, and only looked at Lin Yunzhi and said, "Uncle Lin, please marry Miss Lin to me!"
"Marrying her tomorrow is not because we lack sincerity or to neglect her, but because Princess Anle has already arrived in Yucheng."
"If I don't get married soon, once the imperial decree is issued, I will have no choice but to marry Princess Anle in accordance with the decree."
"I know my actions were somewhat selfish and have put the Lin family in danger." (www.cascoo.net)
"I was born with nothing, and I don't want anything. All I want is to spend my life with the woman I love!"
"I also promised Uncle Lin that as long as I have a breath left, I will protect the Lin family and never let the two elders be in danger!"
Lin Yunzhi originally wanted to scold him, but after hearing his words "born with nothing," he felt sorry for him.
His resolve softened, and Qu Shuangyue, who had been sitting silently to the side, suddenly said, "I agree to this marriage."
Lin Yunzhi looked at her, and she walked over and helped Ye Junfei up: "I believe you."
Lin Yunzhi tugged at her sleeve and said, "Yue'er, we can't look at faces now. This concerns Yan'er's happiness for the rest of her life."
Qu Shuangyue smiled and said, "No matter who Yan'er marries in the end, whether he's ugly or handsome, there will be a certain risk involved."
"If that's the case, why not choose one that's good-looking?"
"Even if she was cheated on in the end, she still slept with such a handsome man, so it wasn't a loss."
Lin Yunzhi: "..."
Lin Xiuyan: "…………"
Ye Junfei & Prince Pingnan: "………………"
The Prince of Pingnan looked at Qu Shuangyue with disbelief. Where did this strange couple from the Lin family come from?
Lin Xiuyan was speechless. It seemed that neither her parents had asked her whether she was willing!
Even though Ye Junfei knew that the Lin family couple's minds were not quite like other people's, he was still shocked.
However, he was shrewd and didn't show it on his face. He bowed deeply to Qu Shuangyue and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mother!"
Lin Yunzhi: "..."
Prince Pingnan: "…………"
Lin Xiuyan: "………………"
This guy is so shameless!
As soon as Qu Shuangyue agreed, he immediately changed his address and called her "Mom"!
Lin Xiuyan knew that Qu Shuangyue was the one who truly made the decisions in her family, and her feelings were somewhat complicated.
Her mother's habit of judging people by their appearance is something she'll probably never change in her lifetime.
Qu Shuangyue beamed with joy upon hearing Ye Junfei call her "Mother," and said to him, "Let me see your betrothal gift list."
"If the betrothal gifts are less than the value of Yan'er's dowry, you'd better find a way to make up the difference today!"
"Yan'er is our precious treasure. Her wedding must not be shabby!"
Ye Junfei laughed and called out, "Wu Ge."
Wu Ge, with his head wrapped in gauze, presented the list of betrothal gifts.
When Ye Junfei accepted the order, he glanced at Wu Ge and said, "You did a great job this time. You'll be richly rewarded later."
Wu Ge was so excited that tears were about to flow.
He risked his life to return to the Prince of Pingnan's residence to invite the Prince to the Lin residence to formally propose marriage.
The injury on his head was inflicted by the enraged Prince Pingnan!
Ye Junfei handed the list to Qu Shuangyue and said, "This is the wealth I've accumulated in the capital over the years."
"Due to my limited abilities, my family's wealth is not substantial and cannot be compared with that of the Lin family, but this is my sincere intention."
Qu Shuangyue thought that as long as he wasn't too stingy, she would go easy on him a little.
But when she saw the items on his list, her eyes widened in disbelief—it wasn't generous at all!
The list alone contained more than a dozen priceless luminous pearls, and various gemstones were counted in bushels.
All sorts of rare and exotic items are sold by the box.
The fabrics used for the betrothal gifts were all extremely expensive Shu brocade, Yun brocade, and other similar items, with each inch worth one tael of gold.
Qu Shuangyue's gaze towards Ye Junfei immediately softened, and she patted Ye Junfei's shoulder, saying, "Not bad, it wasn't for nothing that I trusted you so much!"
Lin Yunzhi was also quite surprised when he saw the items on the list.
He could tell that the betrothal gifts were not prepared adequately due to time constraints, as none of them were finished products.
However, in terms of value, it could buy the entire Lin Mansion.
Ye Junfei's wealth and generosity both pleased Lin Yunzhi and made him reluctant to part with his beloved daughter, who was getting married the next day!
He wasn't prepared at all!
Lin Yunzhi felt uncomfortable and began to nitpick: "When betrothal in Chongqing, three kinds of sacrificial animals are required. Where are your three kinds of sacrificial animals?"
Ye Junfei shouted, "No sword!"
Wu Dao responded with a whistle.
Immediately, someone carried in a large, fat pig weighing over 200 jin (approximately 100 kg), a majestic rooster, and a large bluefish as tall as a person.
In addition, there was a pair of geese.
Although the pigs, chickens, and fish are all of the highest quality available on the market, they are not particularly rare.
Wild geese are extremely precious and cannot be bought even with money.
Qu Shuangyue's eyes lit up: "Where did the wild geese come from?"
