Seeing that Xiao Chengyang remained silent for a long time, the old man nudged him with his words.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chengyang's lips curled into a slight smile.
He was handsome and born into wealth, exuding an air of nobility. His smile was truly dazzling.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Chengyang walked towards Jiang Tian. He reached out, gently embraced her, and lowered his head slightly to place a light kiss on her cheek.
"I've been traveling around Europe these days, leaving you at home to help me take care of Grandpa. Thank you for your hard work."
His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for anyone who wanted to hear him to hear.
In an instant, a gasp of breath was heard.
Many people were convinced that Xiao Chengyang would give up on Jiang Tian.
The Xiao family's reputation cannot be ruined by him.
If he wants to keep his position as heir, he should weigh the pros and cons.
Faced with the fate of the empire, even the emperor could kill his own favorite concubine. Xiao Chengyang could not be a ruthless hero, but at least he could not be the kind of person who would abandon his career for a woman.
But his choice was completely unexpected.
He actually acknowledged Jiang Tian on the spot.
He even kissed her on the cheek, as if afraid others wouldn't know.
Many elders immediately turned cold.
They were as disappointed as they had been about Xiao Chengyang.
The women's gazes were like sharp swords piercing Jiang Tian.
Needless to say, Xiao Chengyang's parents were filled with rage; they wanted nothing more than to tear Jiang Tian to pieces.
Even the old man's smile disappeared.
Watching from the side, Xiao Chengyu slowly loosened his fist; he was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
Xiao Chengyang actually chose Jiang Tian.
Xiao Chengyu couldn't express how many emotions were hidden in his heart at this moment.
He didn't expect it.
No one expected this.
Han Shuangxi, Han Zizhuo, Qin Mochen, Shen Yishui... all had different expressions.
The once bustling hall was now eerily silent, so silent that even people subconsciously slowed their breathing.
Xiao Chengyang acted as if nothing had happened, took Jiang Tian's hand, walked to the old man, and said in a cheerful voice, "You've spent this much time with her, so you should know what kind of person she is. I think you're quite satisfied with her."
The old man himself made the announcement; his intention was to bring the couple together. If he wasn't satisfied with Jiang Tian, how could he have made such a decision?
Therefore, he had to nod.
Anger flashed in the old man's eyes, but his smile remained normal: "Of course, the person you chose is no ordinary person. This girl is quite good."
Xiao Chengyang raised an eyebrow and smiled: "That's true, my judgment has always been good."
Seeing that the surroundings were still silent, Xiao Chengyang deliberately feigned surprise: "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you saying anything? What are you doing?"
After he reminded him, Xiao Chengyang's second and third uncles finally realized what was going on.
They can no longer let people watch the spectacle.
The reporters present took countless photos. The Xiao family has already lost face, but if they are caught on camera with even more scandals, that would be a real problem.
Soon, at the signal, the hall returned to its usual bustling state.
Everyone started talking again, glasses in hand.
However, they are no longer socializing for the sake of socializing as before.
Their eyes were gleaming with excitement.
What a show!
Xiao Chengyang actually dared to acknowledge this mainland celebrity despite his grandfather's obvious anger. Does he really not want the position of heir?
Doesn't he realize that if he loses his position as the future leader of the Xiao family, where will he stand?
