I thought that Zhu Junzhao would give up after being rebuffed by Zhu Qianying.
Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, Zhu Qianying's phone was suddenly bombarded with dozens of messages.
This information included messages from Lü Huiqi, Xiao Lingchen, and others, as well as messages from university and even high school classmates with whom they hadn't been in contact for a long time. All of these messages were very similar in content.
Yes, congratulations to her and Young Master Yan on their marriage!
Zhu Qianying was writing and drawing on the computer at that moment when she suddenly saw this information and was stunned!
His first reaction was to find Yan Shao's phone number and dial it.
"Zhu Qianying, what do you mean?"
As soon as the call connected, before Zhu Qianying could even speak, Yan Shao's cold voice pierced her eardrums like sharp glass.
"Young Master Yan, I was just looking for you. I received dozens of messages congratulating us on our marriage. Did you announce the news?"
To be honest, although Zhu Qianying asked Yan Shao this question, she couldn't find any reason or motive for Yan Shao to announce his marriage.
As for Zhu Qianying herself, it's even less likely that she would announce her marriage.
For her, Yan Shao's promise of a 200 million dowry and a subsequent 10 billion cooperation plan had already benefited the Zhu family. Apart from that, she didn't want the Zhu family to benefit from the Yan family in any way.
After all, she was the one repaying the favor; she wasn't so noble as to repay kindness with enmity and sacrifice herself for the wealth and glory of the Zhu family.
"I was about to ask you that too!" Young Master Yan's tone was disdainful, clearly indicating that he was somewhat annoyed.
Hearing him say that, Zhu Qianying was certain that this was not Yan Shao's doing.
"Young Master Yan, has our marriage been announced? Where?" Zhu Qianying asked this question simply to confirm it in person.
"You can see it on any major website!" Young Master Yan's tone was full of arrogance, ready to ignite at any moment.
Zhu Qianying dared not ask any more questions. She randomly clicked on one of her favorite entertainment gossip websites, and sure enough, the headline was a report on the marriage between the Yan family, a wealthy family in L City, and the Zhu family, a wealthy family in L City.
Although there are no photos, Yan Shao and Zhu Qianying's information is complete and accurate. Although the wedding date is not explicitly stated, it is implied that they will definitely get married at the end of the year.
Zhu Qianying quickly finished reading the report. "Young Master Yan?"
Because it was quiet on the other end of the line, she assumed the other person had hung up.
"explain!"
Yan Shao's impatient voice came through, and Zhu Qianying breathed a slight sigh of relief. He was still willing to listen to her explanation, which proved that he was still willing to believe her, as long as her explanation was reasonable.
"Young Master Yan, you should believe me that I'm not that stupid! This is probably the work of my older brother Zhu Junzhao and my father. When I came back this morning, Zhu Junzhao asked me to talk to you and see if we could announce the marriage as soon as possible. I refused him outright. I didn't expect that in just a few hours, this kind of trouble would happen."
Yan Shao was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, you don't need to worry about this. I'll handle it. The wedding photos will have to be postponed for a few days."
Hearing Yan Shao say that, Zhu Qianying was completely relieved.
She knew very well that her father and Zhu Junzhao would definitely suffer a greater loss than they gained this time.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the headlines of major websites became a statement issued by the Yan family.
The statement said that Yan Han, the current head of the Yan family, is 28 years old this year, which is the right age for marriage. A little over a month ago, he met Zhu Qianying, the fifth young lady of the Zhu family, during a rock climbing adventure activity, and the two fell in love at first sight.
After a period of getting to know each other, the two have decided that they have found their life partners. Recently, their parents met formally to discuss the wedding date, as a way of proving their true love. Both sets of parents stated that, aside from the usual dowry and betrothal gifts, there will be no other exchange of benefits between the two families.
The statement also included a photo, in which Zhu Qianying, wearing a blue phoenix fishtail evening gown, was being tightly embraced by Yan Shao, who was wearing a black suit!
Zhu Qianying, who was initially nervous, couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw the photo.
Young Master Yan, you're something else! You actually photoshopped your own picture onto the image!
Zhu Qianying finished reading the statement with a pleasant mood and couldn't help but give Yan Shao's brilliant statement a thousand thumbs up.
The statement that the two families are truly in love and that they will not exchange any benefits is enough to demonstrate the Yan family's stance! It is also enough to completely thwart the Zhu family's plan to rely on the Yan family for support!
The addition of that incredibly affectionate "photo" that served as the finishing touch greatly boosted the credibility of the statement.
Clearly, Zhu Zhizhou and his son Zhu Junzhao's wishful thinking of using the Yan family's power not only failed, but even the slightest possibility of it being fabricated was completely extinguished by this statement!
After reading the statement, Zhu Qianying was in a great mood and sent Yan Shao a message: "Yan Shao, well done! (clapping)"
Then, humming a little tune, I started browsing the web.
For some inexplicable reason, I entered the keywords "how to tie a tie for my boyfriend" into the search bar, clicked on it, read it carefully, and then got up to take a silk scarf from the closet to use as a tie. I then carefully and repeatedly tied it several times according to the instructions.
While she was happily learning to tie a tie, things were in complete chaos in the chairman's office of Mingxuan Group.
Less than half an hour after the statement was released, there was a loud banging on Zhu Qianying's door, followed by Zhu Zhizhou's urgent call, "Ying'er, Ying'er!"
Zhu Qianying was still learning the fifth way to tie a tie on the computer when she heard a knock on the door. She quickly stuffed her scarf into the drawer, turned off the computer, yanked off her hair tie, and fluttered her hands on top of her head, making herself look like a fool. With her hair all messy, she opened the door while yawning.
"Dad, what's wrong?" She looked completely bewildered, and she really did a good job of pretending.
"Ying'er, you really have to help your father this time!"
With a look of anxiety, Zhu Zhizhou grabbed Zhu Qianying's arm. Caught off guard, Zhu Qianying stumbled forward and lost her balance.
Zhu Qianying barely managed to hold onto the door frame to avoid falling flat on her face. She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and frowned.
"Dad, what can I do to help you, a jobless bum who does nothing but eat, drink, have fun, and play around all day?" Anyway, she'd been pretending to be a subservient grandson for so many years, she didn't care about doing it one more time.
Zhu Zhizhou had no time to care about his daughter's sarcastic remarks. He reached out and patted Zhu Qianying's shoulder. "Ying'er, it's not a big deal. You can just call Young Master Yan."
Zhu Qianying tilted her shoulder slightly, subtly removing his hand, and chuckled.
"Dad, in the entire Zhu family, Xiaoyu, Mom, and I are the most useless. You want me to call Young Master Yan? Haha, that's the funniest joke I've ever heard in my life!"
