"There are some things I want to tell you first."
Dongfang Qingyan smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead, I'm listening."
He then looked at Youfeng's face.
It has to be said that Youfeng is indeed quite good-looking.
Even from what she calls a "death angle," his good looks and charm remain unaffected.
Youfeng looked at Dongfang Qingyan with his deep gaze and said, "I don't know if I can give my whole heart to this relationship. I've never been in love before, and I don't know how to love someone. You might get hurt. Are you willing to start an unknown journey with me?"
Dongfang Qingyan said, "I do."
Hearing this, Youfeng breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "As for the person in my heart that you mentioned, it is absolutely impossible for me and her now, so you can rest assured about that."
Dongfang Qingyan was taken aback upon hearing this, then realized that she had drunk too much the night before and had said too much without thinking, which Youfeng had overheard.
Fortunately, the outcome was good.
Thinking of Youfeng's attitude, she felt a little secretly pleased. After all, although she didn't care what amazing people he had met in the past, it was just that she had arrived a step too late.
But in the future, she still hopes that the person she loves will love her back.
This outcome is exactly what she wanted.
"I trust you."
Dongfang Qingyan looked at Youfeng with her bright and clear eyes and said.
...
Time flies, and before they knew it, it was time for the parents of the Nangong and Ye families to meet and discuss the marriage of Nangong Ci and Ye Ling'er.
During this period of time, even though all parties have been doing their best to search for Jiang Xuanjin and Lemon's whereabouts, there is still not a single clue.
Jiang Xuanjin seemed to have vanished into thin air; no matter what methods were used, there was no trace of him.
Jian Yixue and Ye Mohan were very anxious, but they knew that being anxious would not help, so they could only continue to intensify their search.
But life had to go on, and this was the day to meet the Nangong family.
Jian Yixue and Ye Mohan got dressed early in the morning and took Kele to the old house to pick up Grandpa Ye and Ye Ling'er.
Upon arriving at the old house, Grandpa Ye and Ye Ling'er were already waiting at the door.
They then boarded the car and headed to the Imperial Capital Hotel.
Nangong Ci, the protagonist, arrived at the hotel with his family early in the morning.
After all, he was the one who was going to marry Ye Ling'er, so naturally he had to take care of these trivial matters.
When Ye Mohan's car arrived at the hotel, Nangong Ci was already waiting there.
As soon as the car stopped, Nangong Ci immediately walked to the car.
Ye Mohan helped Jian Yixue and her son out of the car first, and then helped Old Master Ye out of the car.
Only then did he leave the car, leaving the seat to Nangong Ci.
Nowadays, Ye Mohan no longer has the urge to beat up his brother as he once did.
He has now come to understand that it would be far better for his sister to marry someone she knows well than someone she doesn't.
Therefore, naturally, his attitude towards Nangong Ci was much better.
Nangong Ci nodded slightly to Ye Mohan in thanks, then walked to the spot where Ye Mohan had been standing and reached out to help Ye Ling'er out of the car.
Immediately, a fair and delicate hand landed directly on Nangong Ci's hand.
Nangong Ci looked up and saw a face he had been longing for. He unconsciously smiled sweetly.
Ye Ling'er wore a sweet smile and looked directly at Nangong Ci.
With bright eyes, white teeth, and a smiling red lip, she was as beautiful as an elf.
The two looked at each other and smiled, which made everyone around them happy.
Nangong Ci carefully helped Ye Ling'er down.
He then took Ye Ling'er's hand and greeted everyone before the group entered the private room in a grand procession.
Inside the private room, Nangong's parents had been waiting for a long time.
Upon seeing the arrival of the Ye family members, they immediately stood up and exchanged pleasantries.
They then sat down to discuss business.
After all, even without the marriage between Nangong Ci and Ye Ling'er, the Nangong and Ye families had always maintained business ties because of Ye Mohan and Nangong Ci's relationship. Their harmonious relationship was known to everyone in the capital.
So after learning about this, both sets of elders unanimously agreed, since it's rare to see such a good thing as a marriage between relatives.
Just as they were about to start talking, Jian Yixue spoke up first, "Mr. Nangong, Mrs. Nangong, my little sister has always been pampered by her brother and grandfather in our family. We have never let her suffer any grievances, and we hope that you can treat her better as well. Otherwise, not to mention what Mo Han and Grandpa will do, I, Jian Yixue, will be the first to not let this go!"
President Nangong and his wife were both taken aback.
Upon hearing this, Nangong Ci said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely protect Ling'er. If I disobey, may I die a horrible death."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Yixue said, "That would be best."
She spoke up because she was certain that the Nangong family wouldn't implicate the Ye family in this matter, since she didn't share the Ye surname.
She's the best person to say these things.
Upon hearing Nangong Ci's words, Ye Ling'er retorted, "Aci, what are you saying! I don't need you..."
Nangong Ci looked directly at Ye Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, this is a promise I willingly give you."
Ye Ling'er was about to speak when she said, "But..."
"Ling'er," Ye Mohan said.
Ye Ling'er immediately looked up at Ye Mohan, and then said nothing more.
Seeing this, Ye Mohan continued, "Xue'er's words represent the attitude of the Ye family. I only have one younger sister, Ling'er, and I hope you will treat her well."
Old Master Ye echoed, "My attitude is the same."
Jian Yixue, "..."
If she had known it would end like this, she wouldn't have stepped forward.
When Ye Mohan and Old Master Ye spoke, Nangong Zhengde and Madam Nangong realized what was happening and quickly replied, "Of course, of course. We will definitely treat Ling'er well after she marries into our family, please rest assured, in-laws."
To be honest, they liked Ye Ling'er from the start, regardless of her identity; it was simply because her personality was genuinely likable.
As a woman herself, Madam Kong Miao of the Nangong family understood the significance of the Ye family's words.
When she married her husband, her many siblings stood up for her a lot, all to establish her authority and make them think twice about her family's attitude if she was ever bullied. She understood perfectly.
The conversation went very smoothly, and they chose an auspicious day a month later to get engaged.
After the meeting, only Old Master Ye and his wife Jian Yixue remained in the Ye family group that returned.
As for Ye Ling'er, she was naturally left with Nangong Ci.
They weren't feudalistic people; they felt that since the two people had a good relationship, they didn't need to care about outdated customs like not being able to meet after getting engaged.
Jian Yixue and her companion first escorted Old Master Ye home before returning home themselves.
