Liu Tianhao stared intently into Lu Xueqing's beautiful eyes, "Xueqing, I want to marry you. I swear, I will give you a lifetime of happiness!"
As Liu Tianhao finished speaking... Bang! Bang bang!
Fireworks by the roadside suddenly shot into the sky with a deafening roar, one wave higher than the next, making everyone's eardrums ache.
Immediately, Liu Tianhao waved his hand.
The servants then brought up the betrothal gifts.
"The bride price is 8,888,000 yuan in cash!"
"The hardware weighs eight jin and eight liang!"
"A pair of jade bracelets!"
"Two pairs of golden silk combs in the shape of phoenixes in flight!"
"A two-million-dollar insurance contract!"
"..."
One betrothal gift after another was revealed, eliciting gasps of surprise from the crowd.
Putting everything else aside, the cash alone is over eight million! My goodness! The Lu family's cash flow is probably only tens of millions. This is just too exciting!
All the women unconsciously turned their gazes to Lu Xueqing, their eyes filled with blatant envy, jealousy, and resentment. This girl is just too lucky! She's already married, yet Young Master Liu treats her like a treasure!
This second marriage is worth more than the first!
Zhang Ailan's eyes lit up. This son-in-law was simply too perfect. Putting aside his family background, he was also a PhD graduate from overseas, which made him far superior to Lin Yu.
"Haha, good, Young Master Liu, you're so kind! I see your sincerity! I feel at ease entrusting my granddaughter to you!" The old lady smiled from ear to ear.
Lu Xueqing's face flushed red, and she finally couldn't hold back anymore, "Grandma, what are you doing? When did I agree to marry Liu Tianhao!"
The old lady gripped her arm tightly and said, "Xueqing! Marriage is a major event, traditionally decided by parents and matchmakers. Your father passed away early, so your marriage is naturally up to me!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Ailan quickly chimed in, "Xueqing was blind before, choosing such a thing. This time, with you making the decision yourself, I, as her mother, fully support you!"
The old lady smiled and nodded, then said to Liu Tianhao, "Young Master Liu, besides these, you also promised me a 500 million yuan contract with Xiongfeng..."
"Oh!" Liu Tianhao clapped his hands. "Grandma, don't worry. I haven't had a chance to talk to the chairman about the contract yet, but don't worry, with my relationship with the chairman, let alone five hundred million, even one billion is a piece of cake!"
"One billion?"
Everyone gasped in surprise.
If the Lu family gets a contract worth 1 billion, wouldn't that cause an uproar? They'd be on a roll!
"I don't need you!" Lu Xueqing said coldly, then quickly said to the old lady, "Grandma, I went to Xiongfeng this morning and got a project worth 1 billion!"
Everyone was stunned.
They couldn't help but sneer.
"Xueqing, your lie is so obviously fabricated!"
"Given the qualifications of our Lu family, would Xiongfeng really give us a project worth 1 billion?"
"Not even one hundred million!"
"Don't even mention a hundred million, unless Young Master Liu helps us, we won't even get ten million!"
Everyone sneered, not believing Lu Xueqing's words at all.
The old lady shook her head, looking disappointed: "Xueqing, you'd tell any lie just to avoid divorcing that good-for-nothing!"
"Grandma, I'm telling the truth, I really got the contract from Xiongfeng..."
"Xueqing, stop making things up!"
Liu Tianhao sneered, "I'm a shareholder of Xiongfeng, how could I not know? Let alone a project worth 1 billion, even a project worth 100 million would have to go through the board of directors. With the strength of your Lu family, you simply can't get it!"
"Young Master Liu, you're underestimating me! Look at this!" Lu Xueqing quickly pulled a stack of contracts out of her bag.
Everyone was stunned.
Lu Haitao, the eldest grandson of the Lu family, quickly went over and took the contract. After glancing at it, he exclaimed in surprise, "Grandma, it really is the Xiongfeng 1 billion contract!"
"What??"
The Lu family was in an uproar. They never expected that Lu Xueqing would actually get the contract!
"impossible!"
Liu Tianhao immediately exclaimed, "That's absolutely impossible! It must be fake! A contract worth ten billion must have Mrs. Lin's signature!"
“Lu Xueqing, if you don’t want to get engaged to me, you can just say so. There’s no need to fabricate a contract, is there? Do you know what crime it is to forge a contract?” Liu Tianhao questioned with a serious expression.
Upon hearing this, the Lu family members all turned pale with fright.
The old lady stomped her cane angrily: "Lu Xueqing, you actually dared to do something illegal just to avoid divorcing that good-for-nothing?"
"Grandma, that's not how it is. I did get this contract from Xiongfeng!" Lu Xueqing truly had a bitter pill to swallow.
"How dare you say that..." The old lady was so angry that she was about to swing her cane.
Just then, a member of the Lu family exclaimed in surprise, "Grandma, it's actually true! I just saw on my phone that Xiongfeng released a message, personally announced by Xiongfeng's Vice Chairman Zhang, that they're going to join hands with our Lu family on a billion-dollar project!"
"What?"
"It's really true?"
"Our Lu family has prospered!"
Everyone gasped in surprise.
"How is this possible?" Liu Tianhao couldn't believe it and quickly took out his phone to check.
Yes, it really is true!
But then he sneered.
"Xueqing, so what if we get a billion-dollar project?" Liu Tianhao said arrogantly, "Don't forget, I'm a shareholder of Xiongfeng. With just one word from me, I can void the contract immediately!"
The Lu family members' expressions immediately tightened again.
Lu Xueqing pouted, "Young Master Liu, look carefully, this is a project personally overseen by Vice Chairman Zhang! You think you can just cancel it like that?"
