Chapter 141, Do you think I am pleasing to your eyes now?
"Let's leave it at that for today, but!" Liang Qiu looked at Kong Xiyan fiercely with a stern face: "This is the last time! Remember?"
"Remember." Kong Xiyan nodded: "I will tell you in advance if I want to demolish the house next time."
Liang Qiu's mouth twitched when he heard the voice, and he finally sighed helplessly.
Never mind, saying it in advance is also a kind of progress.
Zhong Yongan then made urgent contacts and purchased flowers, balloons and other decorations for the emergency arrangement.
The next day, the Zhong family's daughter's coming-of-age ceremony was held. The guests were a little surprised when they arrived at the Zhong family's house.
"This time...it seems a little different..."
"We want to change to a minimalist style this time." The smiles of Zhong Qiqiang and his wife were a little stiff.
"So that's how it is." The guests accepted the reason with a smile and changed the topic elsewhere.
After all, he's the richest man in South City. So what if he changes up his home's style once in a while?
Apart from anything else, the view is quite broad, with so many flowers, balloons and so on, and the children also like it very much.
"There are many guests today. I hope you will forgive me if our hospitality is not good enough." Zhong Qiqiang greeted the guests with a smile.
"In the blink of an eye, Yangyang has grown up. The soft and cute little girl has become a graceful young lady. I wonder what you think of my naughty boy. If..." Many of the guests were thinking of a marriage.
Zhong Qiqiang always refuses such requests on the grounds that "the children are still young" and "they are in a free love relationship now."
If someone still refused to give up, Liang Qiu would smile and say, "There's still no news about Yangyang's two brothers, so how can it be her turn? Let her go to school first!"
The Zhong family has always regarded Zhong Yangyang as a treasure, and this is known to all the wealthy families in South City.
When they were directly rejected, everyone just smiled and tried to save face by saying, "It's really hard to say about fate."
Of course, some people have other ideas because of this.
"Even if these people wanted to form an alliance with the Zhong family, they shouldn't have set their sights on Zhong Yangyang." A short, portly man with a smudged hairstyle chuckled softly, "Zhong Qiqiang and his wife treat Zhong Yangyang like the apple of their eye. How could they possibly agree to this?"
"Dad, then we..." The young man looked to be less than 30 years old, with regular features, about 1.78 meters tall and wearing a light blue suit. He frowned slightly when he heard his father's words.
That’s what they came here for today!
"Hush." The portly man looked around before continuing to speak to his son, "I've checked. The Zhong family's coming-of-age ceremony is being held for the eldest daughter of the Zhong family and that distant cousin. What's her name, Kong Xiyan?"
"Distant cousin?" The young man seemed a little unhappy when he heard this title. He didn't want to marry just anyone.
"What do you know!" Seeing his son's unwilling expression, the man snorted and glared at him: "That Kong Xiyan is so young and can study for a first-year doctorate at Beijing University. She is very capable and has countless patents!
Besides, she is just a distant cousin of the Zhong family, but she can hold her coming-of-age ceremony together with the eldest daughter of the Zhong family, which is enough to prove how much the Zhong family values her.
If we can marry her, the Zhong family will definitely give her a substantial dowry, and more importantly, there will be future cooperation and development!"
Hearing his father say this, the young man's frown slowly relaxed.
"Ms. Zhong's eldest daughter and cousin are here."
Someone shouted this, and the young man and his father looked towards the stairs together.
On the spiral staircase, Kong Xiyan and Zhong Yangyang walked down the stairs slowly hand in hand.
The two of them were wearing sister-style dresses that Liang Qiu had ordered long ago.
Zhong Yangyang's dress is a one-shoulder dress with pink as the main color and white as the secondary color.
Kong Xiyan's dress is a cross-neck dress with white as the main color and pink as the secondary color.
The two of them walked side by side, like a pair of twin sisters, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off them.
The three brothers of the Zhong family followed behind the two men in neat suits.
As soon as the five of them appeared, everyone in the audience was amazed at the strong genes of the Zhong family.
When the young man, who had been reluctant before, saw Kong Xiyan's appearance, his eyes immediately lit up, and he even urged his father to come.
The father knew his son's character very well. He glared at him unhappily before slowly walking towards Zhong Qiqiang and his wife.
At this moment, Kong Xiyan and Zhong Yangyang had come to the Zhong couple accompanied by the three brothers of the Zhong family.
When Liang Qiu looked at Zhong Yangyang and Kong Xiyan, he felt so happy that he wanted to cry.
It's like she has twin daughters!
"When I first saw the designs of these two dresses, I knew they would suit you perfectly!" Liang Qiu said excitedly, "I've already made up my mind. I'm going to order lots of dresses from this brand! Let's go buy matching shoes and jewelry together later!"
Seeing Liang Qiu's excitement, Kong Xiyan and Zhong Yangyang could only look at each other and smile helplessly.
Why hasn’t Liang Qiu had enough of this miracle daughter’s game?
"The eldest daughter of the Zhong family is so graceful and beautiful!" The short, well-built man came over with his son and praised Zhong Yangyang before looking at Kong Xiyan. "Is this the cousin of the Zhong family? I've always thought she's quite impressive since I saw her online. But now that I see her in person, I think she's a perfect match!"
"Hello, Miss Kong. My last name is Wei, and my given name is Sheng. I wonder if I have the honor to make friends with Miss Kong?" The young man also extended his hand to Kong Xiyan with a gentlemanly smile.
At the same time, several wealthy-looking men came over with their sons, saying that they liked Kong Xiyan and wanted their sons to make friends with her.
Most of the people present were veterans who had been immersed in the business world for many years.
If Mr. Wei can think of it, how can others not think of it?
Seeing that these people had the same idea as him, President Wei's smile froze.
Zhong Qiqiang and his wife knew what these people were thinking. When they were about to use the excuse that "the child is still young" again, Kong Xiyan spoke.
"Since you have read my news online, you should know that I am studying at Jingcheng University and hold several patents." Kong Xiyan smiled and said, "I am fortunate to have reached cooperation with the military on several of these patents.
If you marry me, you need to undergo political review and investigation of three generations of your ancestors, and your partner and immediate family members must report in advance every time they go abroad.
Do you think I look good to you all now?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard Kong Xiyan's words. The young man who stretched out his hand froze completely. It was not right to stretch out his hand, nor was it right to retract it.
The people present here, let alone three generations of their ancestors, even their own generation may not be able to withstand scrutiny.
Besides, they are in business, seizing business opportunities is a matter of time, and going abroad is a common occurrence. How can they afford to submit reports every time? It would only delay things!
After hearing Kong Xiyan's words, those people immediately gave up.
In the end, they could only laugh dryly and praise the Zhong family for their outstanding talents and Kong Xiyan for her promising young talent, then dispersed in disappointment.
"Sister," Zhong Yanyong leaned forward and blinked as he asked Kong Xiyan, "Do I have to submit a report in advance when I go abroad? I don't know how. I've only written self-criticisms. Is there a template?"
Kong Xiyan smiled and glanced at Zhong Yanyong: "Get lost."
"Okay."
