Yu Qiuying reacted calmly to Zhou Jiadong's sudden marriage proposal. What surprised her was that Xu Yingying was actually the daughter of the shoe factory owner.
To be honest, Yu Qiuying thought it was a bit outrageous.
It's true that a rich young lady falls for a poor boy. Why is that?
She couldn't understand it, and she didn't get it at all.
Zhou Cailian and the others were quite happy, especially Yu Changfu and Wang Huimei. During dinner that evening, the two elders asked Xu Yingying about her family situation as if they were checking her household registration.
When asked, Zhou Jiadong knew nothing. "I... I don't know much about her family situation. I only know that her parents divorced when she was very young, and she lived with her father, who is also the factory manager..."
The shoe factory has three owners. Xu Yingying's father is the factory manager and has absolute power.
Zhou Jiadong had only met Xu Yingying's father once; the big boss rarely came to the factory.
As for how he met Xu Yingying, Zhou Jiadong himself was a bit speechless.
He and Xu Yingying had only known each other for less than two months. That day, Xu Yingying drove to the factory, and he happened to be going out when he was almost hit by her.
Then, Xu Yingying fell in love with him at first sight.
Zhou Jiadong didn't believe in love at first sight at all, but Xu Yingying started clinging to him from that day on. She wouldn't let him go to work, and even the factory manager begged him to go and spend time with Xu Yingying.
This was the first time Zhou Jiadong had encountered something so outrageous. At first, he was unwilling, but Xu Yingying said that he would still be paid as usual even if he was on leave, so he had nothing to say.
Then Xu Yingying drove him out to play every day, and he suddenly opened the door to a new world.
He figured he'd get paid even if he didn't work, and going out with Xu Yingying wouldn't cost him anything; in fact, she'd give him money. It was a perfect deal, so why wouldn't he want to?
Then, not long after, Xu Yingying got him drunk and slept with him.
Zhou Jiadong feels depressed every time he thinks about this incident.
"Does she have any siblings?" Wang Huimei asked again.
Zhou Jiadong shook his head again, "I don't know..."
Zhou Cailian and the others were speechless. They were about to get married and they knew absolutely nothing about it.
Wang Huimei didn't know what to say to him. "Forget it, it's your skill to marry the factory director's daughter. Treat her well in the future."
Xu Yingying quickly arranged for the two families to have dinner at a private restaurant, a place that ordinary people couldn't afford to go.
Yu Qiuying and the others all went, leaving only Xu Yingying and her father on the Xu family's side.
Although Xu Yingying's father came, it seemed like a routine visit. He just came to have a meal and didn't ask any questions. He only said that Xu Yingying should arrange the marriage herself and just let him know when the wedding date was set. After the meal, he said he had something else to do and left in a hurry.
Xu Yingying seemed used to it and said to Yu Qiuying and the others, "Don't mind me, everyone. My dad has never really interfered in my affairs since I was little. I've always made my own decisions."
Then she added, "The wedding date is set for the 9th of next month. However, I don't have any close relatives here, so I don't plan on having a big celebration. Just a meal with our family will be fine. If you have any other relatives or friends here, you can invite them over to join in the fun. I've already decorated the wedding room in Jinshuiwan Garden. After the wedding, I'll take you there to meet them."
And so, the marriage was arranged.
Yu Qiuying didn't need to worry about anything; Xu Yingying arranged everything herself.
The wedding banquet was also held at a hotel. Yu Qiuying invited the Qin family, Zhang Yuping, Fu Daying, Cui Yinhua, Huang Xiasheng, and others, who sat at three tables.
Xu Yingying's side only consists of her father, her stepmother, her half-brother and sister, her maternal grandparents, and her aunt's family.
Xu Yingying's maternal grandparents and aunt's family were quite happy and even chatted warmly with Yu Qiuying's family for a while.
Xu Yingying's stepmother and the others were much colder; they just went through the motions and maintained appearances.
As soon as the wedding ended, the group left.
After Yu Qiuying and the others saw the guests off, Xu Yingying took them to Jinshuiwan Garden to familiarize them with the area.
