Chapter 175: Master Xiao proposes marriage
The Chi family's living room.
On the coffee table were five million in cash, two bottles of high-end cigarettes, alcohol, tea and supplements, as well as a number of antique paintings, gold and silver jewelry, etc.
Mr. Xiao was sitting in a wheelchair, with several bodyguards wearing black suits and sunglasses standing behind him.
The bodyguards clasped their hands, stood with their legs apart, and all had icy poker faces, which was very scary.
Chi Feng and Xia Shuyu were restless, and an ominous premonition came to their hearts.
Are you here to propose marriage?
This gentleman has been silent for a while, and they thought he didn't like Chi Beibei!
Really, no wonder he has been single for almost 30 years. Who would marry their daughter to such an old, disabled and boring man?
Master Xiao glanced at the things on the table and said, "This is a gift for meeting you." The betrothal money and engagement gift will be given on the day of engagement.
Chi Feng asked with gritted teeth: "Second Master, what is this?"
Master Xiao raised his eyelids and said, "Propose marriage."
It’s no wonder that he wasn’t very warm. After learning that the Chi family didn’t seem to treat Chi Beibei well, he became somewhat displeased with the couple.
The reason they came to propose marriage this time was because they were Chi Beibei's adoptive parents, and they also wanted to marry Chi Beibei home in a formal way, rather than having him follow him for an unclear reason.
"This..." Chi Feng and Xia Shuyu looked at each other.
If this had happened in the past, they would have agreed immediately, and it would not have been impossible to even pack up Chi Beibei and send her to the Xiao family.
But now Chi Beibei is very likely the long-lost daughter of the Sheng family. They can't force her, right? What if Chi Beibei tried to commit suicide and hurt himself, and his background was accidentally exposed in the future, how would they explain to the Sheng family?
Really, why did Mr. Xiao come to propose marriage so suddenly?
Chi Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "Isn't it a bit too hasty? You and Beibei don't know each other very well." Facing Xiao Erye's vampire-like face, Chi Feng's voice became lower and lower: "You two may not be suitable for each other."
Does this mean you want to go back on your word? Ah Bin, who was thinking about his future young master, suddenly turned pale: "Boss Chi, are you not going to agree?"
Chi Feng quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no." How dare he? Mr. Xiao is a madman. It is said that he would kill people and burn things in private. How could an honest businessman like him compete with him?
"I definitely agree with your marriage to Beibei."
Originally, Chi Feng had no intention of breaking off the engagement. Anyway, the Sheng family might not know Chi Beibei's background. He just wanted Chi Beibei to accept the marriage, which would be better this way.
A lot of Chi Feng's brain cells have died. How should he tell Chi Beibei? It's becoming increasingly difficult to fool Chi Beibei.
Having been sitting for a while, but not seeing Chi Beibei, Mr. Xiao asked, "Where's Beibei?"
Xia Shuyu replied: "Second Master, Beibei is upstairs." But she didn't mean to ask anyone to call Chi Beibei down.
Xia Shuyu was almost having a headache. This gentleman didn't even bother to inform everyone in advance. They haven't even told Chi Beibei yet. What would happen if Chi Beibei saw this? That damn girl is becoming more and more reckless now.
But now that the marriage has been agreed upon, what if Chi Beibei refuses to marry him in the future? That would be even worse.
It's really a dilemma.
Mr. Xiao did not forget the most important purpose of this visit: "I want to ask Beibei in person about her opinion on this marriage." If she agrees, she must keep her distance from that kid Gu Yanchuan in the future.
Xia Shuyu was sweating on her forehead, and Chi Feng was also on pins and needles. Did this mean that he had to talk to Chi Beibei face to face?
I don’t know if it’s because what I fear is bound to happen, but Chi Beibei just happened to come down from upstairs.
"What marriage?"
"Ahaha, Beibei." Worried that Chi Beibei would say something she shouldn't, Xia Shuyu stood up, walked towards Chi Beibei with a smile, and tried to put her arm around her shoulders, but Chi Beibei slightly turned sideways to avoid her.
Mr. Xiao Er saw their interaction and felt a little disappointed.
Xia Shuyu's expression froze for a moment, and she turned her back to Master Xiao and winked at Chi Beibei frantically: "Beibei, Master Xiao is here to propose marriage today. It's your aunt's distant nephew. Mom told you about it before."
Chi Beibei frowned: "Propose marriage?"
Chi Beibei set her sights on Master Xiao in the living room. She had only met him three times in total, and one of those times was when she just saw him from afar at a party. Now he was proposing to her?
Is he kidding?
Is it that Mr. Xiao is so reckless in his actions, or does the Chi family want her to marry Mr. Xiao?
Snowball was so frightened, aren’t Mr. Xiao and Abin a couple? What's happening now? Could it be that its initial guess was correct? Did Mr. Xiao really fall in love with the host?
"Oh my God, what should I do? Host, Master Xiao really likes you!" Snowball turned around anxiously. What if Master Xiao took the host by force? What to do if you have a beautiful girl in your house?
Huh? etc! The snowball suddenly stopped. How could it forget about the villain?
Phew~ I feel relieved now.
Snowball sat firmly and continued to eat melons.
Mr. Xiao was also observing Chi Beibei's reaction. Seeing her surprised look, he felt disappointed.
He felt uneasy for the first time in a long time, and spoke carefully: "Beibei, I came here today to discuss the date of the engagement."
Since he said it bluntly, Chi Beibei was not polite: "I think you must have misunderstood something. I don't know you well, not even a friend."
The premonition came true, and Mr. Xiao could not bear the stimulation for a moment and started coughing violently.
Ah Bin immediately refused to accept this and asked, "Miss Chi, it was your Chi family who took the initiative to propose the marriage. Are you playing tricks on our Second Master now?"
Chi Beibei looked at Xia Shuyu coldly and asked, "You want me to marry?"
This didn't happen in her previous life. It's possible that her reputation was too bad, so Mr. Xiao didn't agree. Unexpectedly, she changed the plot by completing the mission and blocked Chi Mingchu's several plans, but it brought new troubles instead.
No wonder Mr. Xiao suddenly said those strange things to her on the day of the welcoming banquet, and no wonder she received words from her "fiancé" after the party.
Chi Beibei was firm: "I don't agree."
Xia Shuyu was also angry. Why was this damn girl so crazy? The Sheng family doesn't know that she is their daughter. She has no one to rely on now, so how dare they talk to her like that?
"Beibei, you are the adopted daughter of the Chi family. You have enjoyed the glory brought to you by the Chi family, so you should contribute to the family!" Xia Shuyu said this almost naturally. After she finished speaking, she realized that her parents had said similar words to her thirty years ago.
Xia Shuyu looked dazed for a moment.
Fortunately, fortunately her Mingchu and Yuli are truly in love.
But Chi Beibei is not her daughter, so she doesn't care whether she is happy after marriage.
Anyway, she has to agree to Mr. Xiao's marriage even if she doesn't want to!
