Chapter 389 Dowry for You
Meng Anran read the two or three lines of words over and over again to make sure she was not dazzled.
It clearly read: [Jiang Zhili, the third daughter of the Jiang family, is engaged to Qin Mu, the young master of the Qin family in Beijing.]
What is going on?
"Where did you find this information?" Meng Anran narrowed his eyes slightly and began to doubt the credibility of this information.
"Boss, these are all gathered from Hong Kong." Xiao Li knew that the boss was doubting Jiang Zhili's information, so he said cautiously:
"It is said that Mr. Qin and Mr. Jiang arranged a marriage between their families many years ago. However, Mr. Qin only had one son, Qin Hua, and Mr. Jiang's youngest daughter was more than ten years older than Qin Hua, so this marriage naturally fell to the grandchildren."
Meng Anran sneered. It was the first time she heard that even a marriage contract could be hereditary.
Aristocratic families are different. Even in the 21st century, they still follow the traditional arranged marriages for their children and grandchildren. They are engaged before they are even born.
ridiculous.
She took off the blood amber bracelet from her wrist, hooked it between her palms and played with it, and asked thoughtfully, "How many people know about this?"
"There shouldn't be many. I discovered it by accident after a long time of investigation."
"I guess so. Otherwise, why would Qin Hua force Qin Mu to get engaged to Song Wanqiu back then?"
Xiao Li understood what his boss meant almost instantly: "Boss, do you think this news is fake?"
Meng Anran's eyes glared, and her voice was as cold as a knife: "Grandpa Qin has passed away. The marriage with the Jiang family can be real or fake."
Jiang Zhili is of marriageable age this year. The Jiang family, who have not been in contact for more than 20 years, suddenly sent an invitation to Qin Mu to a banquet, probably for the purpose of proposing an engagement.
If Qin Mu went to the banquet alone, the Jiang family might use Grandpa Qin to force Qin Mu to accept Jiang Zhili as his fiancée.
As for whether the engagement really existed, Mr. Qin has passed away, so it’s just a fabrication made up by the Jiang family?
The combination of a century-old family in Hong Kong and the richest man in Beijing can shock the business community across the country.
But at the same time, Grandpa Qin is gone, so even if there really was a verbal engagement, now as long as she says no, it’s gone.
"Boss, why don't you tell President Qin in advance and discuss countermeasures?" Xiao Li hesitated. Maybe President Qin is still kept in the dark!
"Since you can find out this information, he can definitely find it too." Meng Anran was as calm as an outsider. "Whether he knows it or not, from the moment he asked me to go with him, he decided on me."
Xiao Li immediately covered his face with his hands and smiled like an auntie. "Oh, the boss and Mr. Qin have such a good relationship! Seeing them so inseparable is really enviable!"
"Envy?" Meng Anran raised an eyebrow, a malicious smile curling up at the corner of her lips: "How about I ask the company to assign you a partner?"
"No, no!" Xiao Li quickly refused. "I won't bother you with such a trivial matter. You're so busy with your duties, and I'll stick to my post 24 hours a day and do my best to help you!"
Meng Anran tsk-tsk-tsk in amusement.
Coward, it seems like she will introduce him to a willful and vicious little princess.
"Have you prepared everything I asked you to prepare?" She gave Xiao Li a list last week, which was all the dowry to be brought to Liuzhi's wedding.
"It's ready." Xiao Li couldn't help but sigh: "Boss, you are so kind to your bestie. This is the first time I've seen someone give a dowry to a bestie."
Meng Anran chuckled. She only had one best friend in her life. If she didn't pamper her, would she wait for someone else to dote on her?
"Send everything I want tomorrow. Also, remember to send the labor contract to Mu Xinyi."
"clear."
…
The next morning, Meng Anran and Qin Mu packed their luggage and went to the airport to meet up with Liu Zhi and Ming Jing.
Seeing her best friend coming, Liu Zhi ran over and pounced on Meng Anran, "Anran baby! I'm so excited now!"
Meng Anran hugged her and said with a smile: "The wedding is the day after tomorrow, and you're getting excited now?"
"Of course! You don't know, it's been over a month since we got the marriage certificate. I've been waiting for this day!" Liu Zhi tugged at Meng Anran's hand and swung it. Suddenly, she nudged Meng Anran with her shoulder slyly. "How are you and Qin Yaojing getting along? When does he plan to propose to you?"
Meng Anran shrugged, "How would I know? You'll have to ask him."
After all, her meaning has been clearly conveyed to Qin Mu, and the rest depends on his arrangements.
"Let's not talk about this for now," Meng Anran took out a piece of paper from her shell handbag and handed it to Liu Zhi, "Take a look at this."
Liu Zhi unfolded the paper with confusion. It was filled with a list of many jewellery items and even shares of certain companies. It was clearly a gift list.
One LM motorcycle from each series, a set of Z Heavy Industry "Gilded Phoenix" gold jewelry, a set of Bulgarian pink diamond jewelry. Also on the gift list were Meng Anran's shares in the factories owned by Ming Jing, as well as shares in RT Electronic Technology Company.
She looked up at her best friend in shock and said, "Miss, this gift is too much, isn't it?"
"It's not a gift, it's a dowry for you." Meng Anran rubbed Liuzhi's short hair, not hiding her favoritism for her best friend.
The gift is the common property of the couple, but the dowry belongs only to the bride. She wants to make her best friend's wedding a grand occasion and also become the absolute confidence for her best friend to enter the marriage palace.
Let the Ming family know that even if Liu Zhi married into the Ming family, there would still be countless people supporting her, so that the Ming family would not lose interest in Liu Zhi after a long time.
"Wow, wow, miss! I love you so much!" Liu Zhi hugged Meng Anran and cried with a hint of hypocrisy, "It turns out that miss is the best to me!"
The dowry that baby Anran added for her was even more than what her own family prepared.
It is inevitable. The Liu family and the Ming family are old friends, and her family may think that she will not be bullied after she marries into the family.
Besides, she is the only daughter of the Liu family. Although Jiayan Group is managed by Mingjing, the shares are under her name.
In addition, the two families are of equal strength, so they don't pay much attention to dowry and bride price.
Only best friends consider the long-term and comprehensive situation. No matter how she is treated after marriage, at least she must provide adequate support for her on the important day of her life.
"Okay, you two sisters stop chatting, it's time to go." Ming Jing walked over and naturally put his arm around Liu Zhi's shoulders.
Liu Zhi shook his hand away, then stood beside Meng Anran and took her friend's hand. She glared at Ming Jing with resentment, "Go away! How can a stinky man compare to a friend?"
Ming Jing: ???
If Meng Anran didn't have Qin Mu, he really suspected that Meng Anran was the maid of honor to steal his wife!
