Chapter 160 Engagement



"So what you said about him dating a rich man is not true. If you really want to say something, it's that Siwen's boyfriend is lucky to have met me!"

Upon hearing Xu Xiu's words, Du Yuanyuan and Wang Mengqi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu wanted to laugh but held it in, because they also wanted to curry favor with powerful figures in the future.

Xu Xiu glanced at Du Yuanyuan and Wang Mengqi and continued, "So I don't want any gossip in the village in the future. You should understand the consequences..."

Gu Jiang and the others felt a chill run down their spines when they looked at Xu Xiu's eyes. They felt his gaze was terrifying, so they subconsciously nodded and slunk away.

Only then did Qin Siwen's parents come to their senses and cautiously examine Xu Xiu.

“Uncle and Aunt, if you have any difficulties at home, you can tell me. This kind of behavior, which is like selling your daughter, is unacceptable.”

After saying that, Xu Xiu turned to Wen Zhicai and Qin Siwen and said seriously, "If you are sincere and willing to spend your lives together, we will all act as matchmakers for you today."

"Let's get engaged first..."

Xu Xiu's words left everyone speechless.

Before anyone could react, Xu Xiu continued, "It's not easy to meet someone you like who shares your values. How many people's first love has been broken up by reality?"

"How many people end up marrying someone who isn't the one they love the most, or the one they love the most; it's just that the two of them happen to be compatible."

Wen Zhicai and Qin Siwen fell silent, as did Wang Mengqi and Ning Bufan.

Pang Wenjun also silently lowered his head to think.

Xiao Xu and Du Yuanyuan looked at each other, seemingly lost in thought.

Xiao Ruoyan's gaze remained fixed on Xu Xiu, listening to every word he said.

Seeing that no one spoke, Xu Xiu continued, "Since the village has this custom, and the two of you are in love, you should just get engaged first."

"Old Wen, I can help you bring your parents over. We can all sit down and discuss it. If both sets of parents have no objections, then we can settle this matter."

"Strike while the iron is hot; it's not easy to meet the right person."

Wen Zhicai was intrigued by Xu Xiu's words. He glanced at Qin Siwen beside him and saw her nod slightly, a faint blush appearing on her face.

Seeing their daughter's expression and glancing at the box of cash on the ground, Qin's parents knew what to say.

"Siwen and I will remember Lao Xu's kindness."

Wen Zhicai's expression was serious, and his eyes were firm.

"You earned this yourself. Everyone has seen your hard work since the studio was established."

"Unlike some people who fish for two days and then dry their nets for three, eventually giving up on fishing altogether."

After speaking, he glanced at Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu not far away.

Upon seeing Xu Xiu's gaze, Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu blushed and silently lowered their heads.

Xu Xiu spoke a few words to the bodyguard beside him, and then asked Wen Zhicai to lead the way to bring his parents over.

At this moment, his behavior was completely unlike that of a college student, giving those around him a strong sense of pressure.

These bodyguards were also a little puzzled as to how such a young boss could have such a strong presence.

Fortunately, Wen Zhicai's home wasn't too far away; it was only a four-hour round trip. Xu Xiu and his group were either playing on their phones or playing cards in Qin Siwen's courtyard.

Mr. and Mrs. Qin were very polite and bought a lot of candy and snacks from the village.

Midway through, they pulled Qin Siwen inside and whispered, "Wenwen, what does that young man named Xu Xiu do?"

"He was the top scorer in last year's college entrance examination, and his family owns a large clothing factory, and he also runs his own company."

"He was a celebrity at school."

Qin's mother said thoughtfully, "Wenwen, you have a good eye."

Mr. Qin glared at Mrs. Qin. "I've already told you, the child is grown up, don't make decisions for her on your own. Don't you know what kind of person that village chief's son is?"

Qin's mother retorted, not to be outdone, "If you hadn't been deceived, would I be selling my daughter like this? It's all because of you."

Seeing her parents start arguing for no apparent reason, Qin Siwen quickly stopped them, saying, "Stop arguing, do you really want to make a fool of yourselves in front of outsiders?"

The couple stopped arguing after hearing their daughter's words.

In the evening, Wen Zhicai brought his parents to Qin Siwen's house. Wen Zhicai's parents were still working in the fields and hadn't even had time to change their clothes before Wen Zhicai dragged them over.

The two elders were completely bewildered, even though Wen Zhicai had given them a rough account of what had happened on the way.

The elderly couple were still a bit shocked. They had just been planting vegetables in the field when they were suddenly asked to get engaged?

Wen Zhicai is the pride of their village. He was admitted to Hangzhou University, and his son is also very filial. They support whatever decisions their son makes.

After the two families met, they talked inside the house. Wen Zhicai's family had only about 100,000 yuan in savings, which was all his parents' money for their funerals.

It was all saved from between the teeth.

I wonder how things went during their discussion inside. Xu Xiu and Xiao Ruoyan were idly watching anime on their phones.

Then I reached out and touched my stomach, feeling a little hungry.

Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu were playing games. Luckily, they had brought a power bank, otherwise it would have run out of power long ago.

Du Yuanyuan and Wang Mengqi were gossiping, while Ning Bufan sat to the side like a fool, eating sunflower seeds.

The gate slowly opened, and Xu Xiu looked up at the crowd that came out, knowing that everything was settled.

For dinner, Qin's parents booked out several restaurants in the village, making the whole village lively.

After finishing his meal, Xu Xiu left a large red envelope and then left with the others.

Pang Wenjun, Xiao Xu, and Du Yuanyuan took one of the cars back to Hangzhou University, while Xu Xiu, Xiao Ruoyan, Ning Bufan, and Wang Mengqi went directly back to Jincheng.

After having dinner with his parents and discussing the details, Wen Zhicai decided to stay overnight at a hotel in the village and return the next day.

The Qin family only asked for 80,000 in betrothal gifts, and Xu Xiu gave 20,000 as a gift. This was only for the engagement.

After returning to Jincheng, everyone went home. Xiao Ruoyan naturally followed Xu Xiu, and it was already midnight when they arrived back in Jincheng.

The bodyguard drove to a hotel for one night and returned to Hangzhou early the next morning.

Before returning, Xu Xiu reported to his mother and asked her for the access control password.

Before the college entrance examination, Xu Xiu's fingerprints and other information were deleted and never re-added, and his password was changed regularly.

If you don't tell your mom beforehand, you probably won't even be able to get through the door.

The two sneaked open the door and were about to slip upstairs when they noticed the living room lights suddenly turn on.

Fang Xueting was sitting on the sofa looking at the two of them. "Why are you so late? You've been keeping me waiting."

Xu Xiu was startled when he heard Fang Xueting's voice.

Xiao Ruoyan also covered her face and lowered her head, looking completely at a loss.

"Mom, why are you still awake in the middle of the night? And why aren't you turning on the lights? Who are you trying to scare?"

"I'm just waiting for my future daughter-in-law!"

After saying that, Fang Xueting stood up and walked over, smiling as she took Xiao Ruoyan's hand and headed towards her room.

Xu Xiu could only watch helplessly, then walked back to his room like a walking corpse.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw my computer was on, and a middle-aged man in pajamas was playing a game.

Xu Xiu rubbed his forehead and silently muttered to himself, "I'm tired. Destroy everything!"

"Oh dear, son, I don't think you're very happy to see me?"

Xu Tinglong turned his head and looked at Xu Xiu with a chilling expression.
