Chu Xixuan glanced at Lan Ziye again and sighed inwardly. It's okay. After all, his wife is still young and willful. (ー_ー)!!
Seeing that no one had any objections, Old Master Chu continued, "What the two children mean is that we sign the engagement book first and finalize the relationship! Xiaoye will move to Xixuan's suburban villa temporarily so that the couple can cultivate their relationship. Of course, Master Lan, don't worry, they each have their own room. Xiaoye is still young, and Xixuan won't bully her! Also, don't mention the matter of the resignation gift you told me this morning. Although this engagement won't have any ceremony, and according to the two juniors' wishes, it needs to be kept secret, it is still a formal engagement, and all the necessary things must be included. We can't let Xiaoye down, right?"
After saying that, Mr. Chu gestured to the butler behind him. The butler immediately took out a stack of documents and handed them to Mr. Chu respectfully.
Old Master Chu said sincerely, "These are the businesses we're negotiating this year. In the past, the Lan and Chu families weren't so close, and with the Jin, Zhu, and Meng families competing, I'm also in a dilemma. Since Xiaoye will be the mistress of the Chu family in the future, and the Lan and Chu families are related by marriage, we're one family, so there's naturally no need to consider anything else about these businesses. I've signed all the documents. Patriarch Lan, please review them when you go back. If there's no problem, then sign them. Tomorrow, find a younger generation to take over and get these businesses started!"
Lan Yan was a little surprised. Even if Lan Ziye and Chu Xixuan were related, wouldn't Mr. Chu have to be so straightforward? He was afraid he'd regret it.
"Well...business matters are not urgent, we can talk about it another day!" Lan Yan said with an embarrassed smile.
"It's better to do it today than on another day. Besides, we've already discussed this business deal many times!" Old Master Chu said straightforwardly, "Anyway, I've already signed everything that needs to be signed. If you respect our Chu family and think that doing business with us is profitable, then you can sign it. If you think I'm forcing you, then just ignore what I said! The key is, don't ruin the relationship!"
"Master Chu, you are being too modest. Who in the entire Lanxuan Continent doesn't want to do business with the Chu family? But, Xiao Yeye just got engaged to Young Master Chu today, and you have already prepared these contracts. It seems a bit..." Lan Yan said with difficulty.
Why does he feel like he's selling his granddaughter? (???????)
"I really like Xiaoye. To be honest, the first time I saw Xiaoye, I wanted her to be my granddaughter-in-law! At that time, I thought that my eldest grandson, a blockhead, didn't care about Xiaoye, and I was so anxious! Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, I even forced my second grandson Chu Xining to marry Xiaoye! Haha, I really want Xiaoye to be my granddaughter-in-law!" Old Master Chu smiled kindly.
(Chu Xining: Grandpa, if you want to talk about big brother, just talk about big brother. Why do you have to mention me? Do you know how much suffering I have to endure when you say that? (???︿???))
Sure enough, when Old Master Chu accidentally caught sight of Chu Xixuan's unhappy face, he quickly put away his smile, changed the subject, and said seriously, "I signed these contracts after meeting Xiaoye. They've been signed for a few days now, and I've been waiting to give them to you, Patriarch Lan, today!"
Lan Yan could sense that Mr. Chu truly loved Lan Ziye, and he felt even worse. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Then I, Lan, would like to thank Patriarch Chu first!"
