Chapter 511 Me and My Men 5
The people in the office immediately started discussing it in their small group chat: She's panicking! She's panicking!
Don't rush, or you'll lose the golden opportunity you finally managed to latch onto.
He's a load of rubbish, a golden thigh for Wu Mei. At best, he's just a stepping stone for her to climb the social ladder. But now that the stone is gone, who knows if Wu Mei will stumble and fall.
It turns out that it will.
In the afternoon, Wu Mei's position was also revoked, and Ning Yan took her place as supervisor.
Ning Yan: ...This huge pie almost hit her on the head.
Her first reaction was to text her younger boyfriend: "Honey, you're so lucky for me! I got a promotion as soon as we started dating. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
Thinking about the meal she treated him to yesterday at noon, Ning Yan suddenly wanted to laugh. Her boyfriend was so cute; if she said she would treat him, he would really let her. He didn't even say a word of politeness and just watched her swipe her card to pay.
He is truly extraordinary.
Fengfeng: Hmm.
The other people in the office congratulated Ning Yan one after another.
Wu Mei, who had been demoted to a regular employee, glared at Ning Yan resentfully, secretly thinking to herself, "That little bitch must have slept with some leader, otherwise the general manager wouldn't have suddenly gotten into trouble. It's all her fault."
The next day, Ning Yan's workstation was moved to the supervisor's office. The supervisor was to be assigned an assistant, so Ning Yan moved Tan Weifeng to work next to him, and the higher-ups actually agreed.
This makes it even easier for the two of them to secretly date.
The young man was completely captivated by her charm. One day after get off work, while sitting in a taxi, he hesitated for a moment, but finally blurted out, "How about we get married?"
There was no proposal ceremony, no engagement ring, not even a bouquet of flowers, but Ning Yan had been longing for a little puppy for a long time, and she agreed without hesitation for even half a second.
"Okay, let's get married then."
Tan Weifeng was so excited he was almost incoherent, "You just agreed?"
"What else?"
Tan Weifeng pulled her into his arms. "I'll go to your family tomorrow to propose. Once we get their approval, we'll get our marriage certificate, okay?"
Ning Yan nodded vigorously: "Okay, okay, okay!"
The two were chatting animatedly, but after Ning Yan returned home, her parents were much less agreeable. "Neither set of parents has met. What if his family doesn't approve of your relationship?"
“We are eager to get married, but not to this extent. This is too hasty.”
Ning Yan had no choice but to take out her phone and send a message to Tan Weifeng, explaining her parents' intentions.
Fengfeng: It's all my fault for being inexperienced, but don't worry, I'll come to your house with my grandfather tomorrow to propose marriage.
Ning Yan showed the message to her parents, and the couple were finally relieved.
"Oh, quick, quick, our in-laws are coming tomorrow, let's both take a day off."
Also, set an alarm for me at 4 a.m., because I need to go to the market to buy the freshest vegetables tomorrow morning.
"Daughter, quickly ask my future son-in-law if he and his grandson have any dietary restrictions. It wouldn't be good if they ate the wrong thing when they came over."
Ning's mother happily strolled around the living room, giving instructions as she picked up a rag and wiped here and there. Actually, their house was very clean; even though they had lived there for more than ten years, it still looked very new.
Ning Yan: "Mom, the house is quite clean. You and Dad should get some rest, otherwise you won't be able to get up tomorrow."
"Oh, never mind, it's only this early. I'll go to sleep after I'm done tidying up, you should go to sleep too."
...
After sending the message, Tan Weifeng and Ning Yan called their grandfather.
"Grandpa, will you come with me to my girlfriend's house to propose tomorrow?"
After a long pause, the person opposite suddenly exclaimed with delight, "Great! Great! Tomorrow, Grandpa will pick you up, and we'll go together to propose marriage. When are we getting married, my dear grandson?"
"Could you hurry up? Even just getting your marriage certificate first would be great."
"My girlfriend said that after I propose tomorrow, if her parents agree, we'll get our marriage certificate."
Grandpa, what do I need to prepare for the marriage proposal? I have no experience with this.
"My dear grandson, Grandpa has already prepared the betrothal gifts for you. You don't need to worry about them. I guarantee your future in-laws will be satisfied. You just need to dress yourself up beautifully."
Tan Weifeng felt a sweet warmth in his heart at the thought of taking his girlfriend to get their marriage certificate tomorrow. "Okay, then thank you, Grandpa."
"No trouble at all, oh dear, go to sleep now, otherwise you'll get dark circles under your eyes and won't be pretty if you don't get enough rest."
"Click," the other end of the line had already hung up.
The old man: ...There's no need for that.
The next day, Ning Yan dressed up specially, wearing a white top and light blue pants in order to make a good impression on her boyfriend's grandfather.
Because of her height, she chose a pair of off-white, beaded, half-heeled sandals, styled her shoulder-length hair into a ponytail, and wore light makeup, with a light pink lipstick.
Around 11 o'clock, the area outside the residential compound suddenly became lively.
Ning Yan looked down from the window and saw that the area below her building was filled with luxury cars, forming a long convoy.
Soon everyone on the bus got off. Among them was an old man with gray hair, her young boyfriend, and the rest were all burly men in suits. There were even foreigners among them.
Good heavens, is it really necessary to make such a big fuss over a simple marriage proposal?
The residents of the community were also taken aback by the commotion the Tan family had made. Ning Yan, disregarding her surprise, quickly got up and opened the door. Soon, Tan Weifeng helped the old man through the door, followed by his bodyguards carrying gifts in elevator after elevator...
Ning Yan and Tan Weifeng looked at each other. Today, he was wearing the same white pullover as her, thankfully without a hood, and also wore blue sweatpants, making it seem like they were wearing matching outfits. With his milky white skin, he looked well-behaved and cute.
...
That afternoon, Ning Yan and Tan Weifeng got their marriage certificate.
At 9:45 p.m., after seeing off the last group of neighbors, the Ning family finally had some peace and quiet.
Lying in bed, the couple felt that everything they had experienced that day was incredibly unreal.
"Our daughter really got married like that?"
Ning's father said, "It seems she married quite well."
Ning's mother: Isn't that pretty good? Not only did her in-laws give their daughter more wealth than they could ever dream of in a lifetime, but they also bought them a big villa.
"It seems like the dowry was prepared for nothing."
Ning's father: "Yes, it's all thanks to our daughter's discerning eye and quick, decisive action."
She snatched away the young master of a wealthy family.
"But we're not a good match..."
Ning's mother felt like she was walking on cotton, and she couldn't believe that what happened today was real.
"As long as neither set of parents objects, she'll consider herself right!"
"Yes! You're right. If your father-in-law is so satisfied with our daughter, then there's no problem with the wedding."
Only by constantly devising strategies for themselves can they soothe their hearts that are hanging in mid-air.
...
The Tan family.
The old man had dinner with his grandson and granddaughter-in-law and then went back to his room, while the young couple went back to their own room.
It was only then that Ning Yan learned about Tan Weifeng's family background.
The grandson of the Tan family in Beijing.
Yes, it's a grandson, not a grandson.
