Ruan Shengpeng and Yao Yanxin both took Yao Tongxu's marriage very seriously. They got up early to discuss what gifts to buy when they went to propose.
In the end, Ruan Shengpeng ordered two bottles of Moutai liquor and two cartons of high-end Zhonghua cigarettes. You should know that such cigarettes are now specially supplied, and he only had one carton, so he went out of his way to ask someone to exchange it for another carton.
Of course, there were also plenty of fruits and snacks. In the end, Xiao Gengwu was added to the list of people who were to propose marriage. If only two women were to come forward, Li Chenyi might cause trouble.
After thinking it over, Ruan Shengpeng wrote a letter to Li Chenyi. It was a sensitive time, and he didn't dare to see him yet, for fear that he might act rashly and ruin things in the end!
A few months ago, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom visited China, and the country initially raised the issue of Hong Kong's return to China. At that time, the Prime Minister did not agree, only saying that it needed to be discussed.
Now is the time for Li Chenyi to work secretly in Hong Kong. He can't let others know that he has connections with Beijing. Otherwise, if someone finds something to use against him, the situation will be terrible!
When Li Chenyi saw Yao Tongxu enter, his face darkened. Just as he was about to get angry, he saw Yao Yanxin and Yao Tongjia walking behind him, and he quickly stood up.
"Mrs. Ruan and Dr. Yao, what brings you here?" Li Youyou, who was inside, rushed out when she heard that Yao Yanxin and Yao Tongjia had arrived. "Auntie and Sister Tong, you're here! Why isn't Little Pudding here?"
Yao Tongjia pointed to Yao Tongxu and Xiao Gengwu beside her: "You should know why they came. This kind of occasion is not suitable for her!"
Li Youyou saw what Yao Tongxu and Xiao Gengwu were carrying, and she immediately knew that Yao Tongxu had come to propose marriage. Her face turned slightly red: "Sister Tong, let's go to my room to talk!"
Yao Tongjia also wanted to ask about Li Chenyi's situation, so she nodded and followed Li Youyou!
Yao Tongxu really wanted to bring his sister back. His sister had saved Li Chenyi's life, and he thought that Li Chenyi would be less harsh on him because of her.
Seeing his sister walk away without looking back, he could only look at his mother with hope. Yao Yanxin, seeing his spineless appearance, had no choice but to say, "My son and your sister are in love. He came here today to propose marriage. I hope you will agree!"
Seeing their posture, Li Chenyi knew why they had come today. He was extremely reluctant to part with her, after all, Youyou was nominally his sister, but he had raised her as his daughter.
Is the person he has carefully nurtured now going to be handed over to someone else? But he feels that the situation in Hong Kong is getting more and more tense every day.
He was already deeply involved, and he was afraid that he might not live to see his sister again if he wasn't careful. Considering Dr. Yao's character, he felt more at ease leaving his sister with this brat.
Why does this brat's smiling face feel so irritating? Oh well, Youyou has already decided on this person, so let them be together, but he's very worried.
My younger sister knows nothing and can't do anything. Will marrying her off like this harm her? Will the Ruan family be able to tolerate her?
Li Chenyi hesitated for a moment: "Madam Ruan, let me be frank. I'm raising my sister to be a lady of a prominent family in Hong Kong. She's skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she can appreciate art and literature. She's knowledgeable in many refined things."
"But she can't do housework, and because I've been too protective of her, she's also not good at social skills. Can you accept someone like her?"
Yao Yanxin nodded: "As long as they like each other, I have no objection. I was also someone who was pampered by my parents when I was young, and now I am a qualified mother!"
Yao Yanxin's words made Li Chenyi silent for a while: "You must have suffered a lot during this process, right?" He had investigated Yao Tongjia before, so he naturally knew some things about Yao Yanxin.
Yao Yanxin nodded: "I did suffer a lot, but I am very happy now!"
“I just don’t want Youyou to suffer so much. Can you do that?” Li Chenyi turned to look at Yao Tongxu, who immediately promised, “I definitely won’t let her suffer!”
"How can you guarantee that? You were gone for two years at a time before. Look, your sister's child is already over a year old, and you only just saw her then, right? If it were your child, wouldn't it be a hardship for Youyou to give birth alone?"
Yao Tongxu was speechless at Li Chenyi's words. The thought of Li Youyou getting pregnant and giving birth alone weighed heavily on his mind.
Thinking of the suffering his sister had endured, he turned and glared at Xiao Gengwu. Xiao Gengwu had a headache; his brother-in-law really couldn't tell the difference between situations!
Yao Tongjia had just come out with Li Youyou when she heard Li Chenyi's words. She pulled Li Youyou to sit down and said, "Mr. Li, it's more appropriate for me to answer this question!"
"Although I was pregnant and gave birth alone, I didn't feel like I was suffering. I had my parents, my mother-in-law, Youyou, and Xinyue by my side!"
"Even if my brother goes away for a long time and doesn't come back, we will take good care of Li Youyou. I can promise you that!"
Li Chenyi nodded: "I trust Dr. Yao's character. The reason I've been able to leave her here to live these past few years is because I know you're my friend!"
"I agree to the marriage, but I hope the young couple can live in this house, is that alright?" He bought the house in Li Youyou's name.
The people serving Li Youyou here are also people he trusts. He can only feel at ease leaving Li Youyou here!
Yao Tongxu didn't care where he lived, since he rarely lived with his parents anyway. He looked at his mother, Yao Yanxin, who smiled and said, "Where they want to live is up to them. I won't interfere!"
Yao Tongxu looked at Li Youyou, whose face turned bright red: "Of course it would be best if I could still live here, I've already gotten used to living here!"
Yao Tongxu nodded: "I have no problem!"
Seeing that Yao Tongxu agreed, Li Chenyi felt a little relieved: "This courtyard house is under Youyou's name, and everything here belongs to her. Consider this my dowry for her!"
"The wages of the people serving here are all paid through my accounts. You should know that I run a construction company here. In addition, since you're going to work here, I'll buy you a car. You can have whatever kind of car you want!" Li Chenyi said very generously.
Li Youyou will absolutely not reduce the number of people here. As long as these people behave themselves, I hope they will continue to follow Youyou.
Of course, he will also train some new people to fill the gaps. These people should not think that they can come and go as they please just because he is not here. If he finds any disloyalty, he will send them back to the port city.
Once back in the port city, he can punish people at will!
Yao Tongxu quickly waved his hand: "After I get married, I'll pay everyone's salary here, and I'll also cover their living expenses!"
Li Chenyi shook his head: "Do you know how many people there are here? How much salary and living expenses do they pay each month?"
