But now, Qiao Shuhui is capable herself, and her daughter is even more capable than her. She doesn't think she has to marry Zheng Weiting to live a better life.
On the contrary, it was Grandpa Zheng and the others who needed the rare and exotic fruits provided by Xiao Yu'er to prolong their lives.
At Mr. Zheng's age, what they care about is not money, but whether they can live a long and healthy life.
Now he sees hope for health and longevity in Xiao Yu'er, and naturally wants to seize this opportunity.
The most reliable relationship would be for Qiao Shuhui and Zheng Weiting to become husband and wife, completely binding their two families together. Only then would the Zheng family be able to enjoy more benefits provided by Xiao Yu'er.
Of course, given Old Master Zheng and Zheng Weiting's generous and magnanimous nature, they wouldn't take Xiaoyu'er's things for nothing; they would definitely give Xiaoyu'er more valuable returns.
What they wanted was the right to buy this good thing from Xiao Yu'er.
After all, if such rare and exotic fruits had nothing to do with Qiao Shuhui and Xiao Yu'er, no matter how wealthy other families were, Xiao Yu'er wouldn't sell them to them.
The truth behind these facts is realistic and cruel, but it is the truth about survival in the upper echelons of society.
The higher up in the social circle, the more people are concerned with interests.
Having spent so many years in Hong Kong's business world, Qiao Shuhui had long since come to understand this truth.
Her decision to be with Zheng Weiting was also based on practical considerations. She chose to bury the past in her heart and accept him as a new person to become her partner on the road ahead.
Of course, there are indeed feelings between her and Zheng Weiting. Zheng Weiting's selfless devotion to her over the years has also moved her.
Otherwise, no matter how rich he is, she won't compromise.
But now, should she get married or not?
Qiao Shuhui still hesitated.
She turned her gaze to Zheng Weiting, who had remained silent. This guy hadn't mentioned this to her before, so why was he suddenly doing this today? What was he thinking?
Zheng Weiting smiled at her and said frankly, "Ahui, you don't need to have any concerns. I definitely want to marry you, but I respect your thoughts and will put your wishes first."
"You can tell my dad what your conditions are. I believe he will seriously consider them."
At the end, he winked at Qiao Shuhui, signaling her to name her terms.
Grandpa Zheng also saw Zheng Weiting's hint and couldn't help but curse inwardly, "That brat, he only cares about Ah Hui and doesn't care about their family's interests at all."
Qiao Shuhui was secretly pleased to receive Zheng Weiting's hint.
According to later generations, Zheng Weiting was somewhat love-struck when it came to her. He thought of everything for her, considered her needs, bought her things and gave her gifts. He never cared about the value of the gifts, as long as she liked them.
On the contrary, she felt that she couldn't give him much love or reciprocation, and often refused to accept the gifts he gave her.
Men like Zheng Weiting, who come from a good family, are good-looking, treat her well, and are devoted to her, are indeed very rare.
Qiao Shuhui did not have any intention of not wanting to marry him. Her previous decision not to marry him was more for the sake of face and the interests of both parties, and it was the result of a balance in the end.
Now that Grandpa Zheng wants to break this balance and is willing to give her more benefits, Qiao Shuhui needs to seriously consider this matter.
Grandpa Zheng waited for a long time, but seeing that Qiao Shuhui was still considering, he didn't say anything.
The old man was a little anxious, and then said, "Ah Hui, if you are willing to marry Ah Ting, I can offer 10% of Zheng's shares, a 58-story building, and 1 billion in cash as a dowry. You can also sign a prenuptial agreement with Ah Ting regarding your own assets. We will support you."
Qiao Shuhui and Shen Yu were both shocked by what Old Zheng said.
The old man has quite the generosity!
To win over the mother and daughter, the old man really went all out this time, spending a fortune!
As a business magnate in Hong Kong, Mr. Zheng apologized on the first hand and was willing to give a dowry of nearly 5 billion yuan. This really gave Qiao Shuhui and Shen Yu a lot of face!
If Qiao Shuhui still didn't agree, she would seem rather tactless.
She then looked at Zheng Weiting.
Zheng Weiting immediately stood up, took out a large diamond ring with a huge ruby in his pocket, knelt on one knee in front of Qiao Shuhui, and said, "Shuhui, marry me!"
He looked at her with hopeful eyes, and Qiao Shuhui's heart softened. She finally relented and said, "Okay, I'm willing!"
Zheng Weiting slipped the gemstone ring onto Qiao Shuhui's left middle finger, and then, with reverence, lowered his head and kissed her hand.
He then looked up at Qiao Shuhui, his eyes filled with deep affection, and said, "Ahui, thank you for being willing to marry me!"
He stood up and embraced Qiao Shuhui.
The eleven-year-long pursuit of his wife by the eldest son of the Zheng family finally came to a happy ending at this moment.
Shen Yu smiled and blessed them, "Mommy, Uncle Zheng, blessings to you both!"
Grandpa Zheng and Zheng Weiting were also very concerned about Shen Yu's reaction. Seeing that she also blessed them, it proved that she was willing to accept them as family, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
Grandpa Zheng said happily, "We've already chosen an auspicious day, August 19th, which is the 9th day of the 7th lunar month. Ah Hui, Xiao Yu'er, what do you think of this date?"
He emphasized again, "The Zheng family will take care of everything for the wedding. You don't need to worry about it. Just give us the guest list and you can attend on time."
Qiao Shuhui was a little worried, "Mr. Zheng, is it enough time to prepare for the wedding with only about twenty days?"
Grandpa Zheng laughed heartily and said, "There's plenty of time, definitely plenty of time. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Zheng Weiting added, "Ah Hui, we have twenty days to prepare, it's definitely possible. I'll personally oversee it."
He had been looking forward to this day for many years, and he would never allow anyone or anything to have the opportunity to ruin his wedding with Ah Hui.
Since both the Zheng father and son assured her that the wedding would proceed smoothly, Qiao Shuhui didn't say anything more. "Alright! Then I'll trouble A-Ting."
Zheng Weiting smiled at her, "I'm the groom, isn't this what I should do!"
Grandpa Zheng and Zheng Weiting had dinner at the Qiao family's house.
When they returned, Shen Yu also prepared two boxes of refreshing tea, two bottles of energy-boosting juice, and some fruit for Old Zheng.
Mr. Zheng was very happy to see the pile of gifts.
When they returned to the Zheng family, they immediately shared the good news with their family.
This is good news for the father and son.
But for the Zheng family members who wanted to seize the throne, this was a bolt from the blue, leaving them completely bewildered.
The eldest brother is actually going to marry Qiao Shuhui?
He married that woman; wouldn't the two of them be even more powerful together? Wouldn't their hopes of seizing the throne become even slimmer?
No! Absolutely not!
They absolutely cannot let their boss marry that woman!
