The betrothal gift is 100,000 yuan, what does it mean to give 200,000
Chapter 495 Chen Yuan and Jiang Yao are close
A few days.
Time flies.
After staying in Kyoto for a few days, Dad Chen and Liu He booked flights for this morning and left first. When the holiday from the school was over, both of them had to rush back to teach their students.
Chen Yuan sent the two of them to the airport.
Before leaving, Liu He did not forget to remind Chen Yuan again and again, asking him to pay more attention to the two sisters and get the marriage issue settled as soon as possible. Since she was not there to supervise them, Chen Yuan would have to work hard on his own.
To put it bluntly, after going through the process of taking engagement photos - family dinner and giving gifts - agreeing on the approximate date for proposing marriage, the two sisters are in a state of hot pot, and that hot pot needs to be fueled, otherwise there will be no point in cooking when the stove gets cold.
Chen Yuan agreed readily.
At the family dinner, the whole family was in a happy mood and treated the two sisters very well. Since it was a formal meeting, gifts and many verbal promises were inevitable.
There were so many details that it was very complicated for Chen Yuan to recall them now.
No wonder when Liu He landed in Mingzhu City a few days ago, she insisted on going to the city the next day, saying that she was going to "buy vegetables", but in fact she was melting down the ancestral gold jewelry at home and making two gold and jade bracelets, which were not cheap.
There is no need to say more about Jiang Zhengfeng. With such a family background, if he gives too little, he will easily be ridiculed by his in-laws. After all, if he doesn't prepare a generous gift when meeting someone, how can he show his sincerity?
He gave her two black cards for domestic consumption. As long as the cards are accepted, all expenses can be reimbursed, and the stored value must be over five million. These are consumption cards that Hua Xia Bank has offered for many years. Then he gave her two sets of jewellery that he had bought at a high price at Liu's Auction House a few days ago... two sets as well.
The two sisters were so overwhelmed by the gifts they received that they didn't dare to accept them.
Ningning waved her hands to refuse. First, she felt that the gift was too expensive. Second, she knew that the elders had treated her very well because they had given her the opportunity to change her mind. As long as she didn't want to get married before the wedding, they would not force her. This was really the utmost kindness. If she accepted the gift now, it would be even more embarrassing to return it later if she changed her mind.
But Liu He urged her to accept it, saying that they could discuss any concerns privately later, so Jiang Ning reluctantly accepted it.
Afterwards, Jiang Zhengfeng asked the two sisters about their career plans and promised to provide certain support and help to Jiang Yao in whatever direction she wanted to develop in the future. After all, they are a family in the future. He only has Chen Yuan as his son, so he will definitely not be stingy with the resources he can provide.
The two sisters were flattered. At first they thought Jiang Zhengfeng was a very serious person, but they didn't feel any pressure after getting along with him... Of course, if compared with Liu He, they were obviously more intimate with Liu He, because Chen Yuan was not very close to Jiang Zhengfeng.
A set of small combos.
The two sisters have completely become Chen Yuan's fiancées, and are just waiting for the right day to propose.
After sending Liu He off, Chen Yuan didn't stay in Kyoto for long. He would leave in the afternoon and return to Mingzhu City with the two sisters.
Because——Jiang Ruxue is about to be released from prison.
……
Afternoon, three o'clock.
Jiang Zhengfeng will board a multinational flight in half an hour to go on an inspection trip to another place.
However, in just half an hour, he was still arguing with Chen Yuan in the study.
Even the two sisters in the main hall heard the quarrel coming from the study on the fourth floor and were so frightened that they dared not speak loudly.
In the study room.
"Why do you suddenly want me to stay in Mingzhu City to study? Linzhou has been waiting for me to return for so many days. Pei Youwen, Monana Ji Hai and others can't suppress those senior leaders at all. Now I have to hold video conferences every night. You know that I can't hold them clearly. It's finally time for the handover, and you want me to inspect Mingzhu City for three months to a year... Is Linzhou lost?"
"No matter how important things are, put them aside. The northern region needs to change and learn the reform ideas of the central region. They are ahead of you in all aspects. How can you understand if you don't study and see for yourself?"
"First, the situation in the north is completely different from that in the central region. The central region is developed, while the north is vast. The central region is centralized and funded, making management easier. As the highest-level leader in the north, I have no say in direct leadership. Everything must be discussed with the regional managers, and their plans may not be suitable for us. Isn't this like riding a donkey to judge a horse? Second, because of the job list, some people are still suppressing their opinions, waiting to show me their colors at the next headquarters meeting. I have to take advantage of this time to get in touch with the grassroots more. We must first have basic trust before we can reform together, right? As a result, you sent me to the central region to study. What do the people below think? I am parachuted in and out again. Am I a paratrooper?"
"What paratroopers or not, I want to talk to you about business."
"I'm just talking about business."
Both sides hold their own opinions.
Chen Yuan really didn't know what Jiang Zhengfeng was thinking. He was afraid that he was treating his work too lightly and disappointing those who trusted him. They thought that he was too young and his shoulders were too immature to bear such a heavy responsibility.
Ji Hai, Pei Youwen, Monana...including Jiang Zhengfeng and the previous general director of the northern region, Gao Dengfeng.
So he has been studying hard and trying to catch up with others, and has spent almost all of his time on this for the past six months.
However, Jiang Zhengfeng's current decision made him feel it was a joke.
Three months to one year...
Mingzhu City is not his battlefield. What he has in mind are Lanjing and Linzhou.
But when he asked when the investigation would be considered complete, Jiang Zhengfeng replied that it would be when the headquarters thought it was ok.
This statement is too false and empty.
When they got to the study, the atmosphere gradually fell into silence.
Jiang Zhengfeng suddenly said, "You have to go. This is not my idea, but the decision and arrangement of Jiang's headquarters. The documents have been prepared. Come and sign them yourself."
"What is Jiang's headquarters' idea...Everyone knows that you have the final say in the headquarters and have a veto power just like the board of directors."
"This is a company order!" Jiang Zhengfeng suddenly became serious. "Any official employee of Jiang Corporation must obey the company's arrangements, even if you are the prince. You are not talking to your father, but to the chairman."
He scared Chen Yuan.
The title of chairman was brought up, and Chen Yuan had no choice but to accept it.
He also knew that as an "employee being led", no one could resist the orders from the headquarters.
For example, Ji Hai, who had just graduated from a prestigious university, was full of talent and high spirits, but he was sent to South Africa for construction just three months after joining the company...
No matter how stubborn you are, it won't work.
Seeing him sign his name stroke by stroke, Jiang Zhengfeng showed a hint of relief in the corner of his eyes.
"Okay, go call Ningning up."
"Why call her?"
"I have something to do."
After hearing this, Chen Yuan had no choice but to turn around, open the door, look for her, and go downstairs to call Jiang Ning.
In the living room.
"Me?" Jiang Ning pointed at herself, slightly surprised.
She and Yaoyao were eavesdropping on the quarrel between the father and son, and she didn't expect that they would be involved. She was a little confused for a moment.
She looked back at Jiang Yao and went up with some trepidation.
"I've called the people for you." Chen Yuan opened the door of the study and said lightly.
"Okay, wait outside for a moment. I have something to say to her."
"Why do you want me to go out?" Chen Yuan frowned.
"Business."
It seems that in Jiang Zhengfeng's eyes, nothing is private. He turned his head away speechlessly and closed the door. In the study.
Jiang Ning was trembling with fear.
"Uncle, what is the matter that you called me over for?"
"Ningning, come here," Jiang Zhengfeng said, taking out a document from the drawer and getting straight to the point, "I know you signed a contract with Chen Yuan to be his personal secretary. From Zijing Company to Linzhou, this guy has thought of many ways to keep you."
"Yes……"
"This document of mine represents Jiang's official hiring of you as his assistant to the Mingzhu City Supervisor. You will also have a full-time job. Take a look at your salary. It will not conflict with the one he signed."
"Uncle, how can I..." Jiang Ning was a little surprised, but before she could finish her words.
Jiang Zhengfeng waved his hand to stop him.
"Your talent and ability are obvious to all. I didn't deliberately arrange this because of your relationship with Xiao Yuan. It's because you are thoughtful and capable. You can help me supervise him and make decisions for him on many things he can't solve. Xiao Yuan is young after all, and this is also the headquarters' hiring... Any employee has the opportunity to be promoted to the headquarters after completing a three-year contract. It depends on your plans for the future. It's always more convenient to sign it."
"Is he...going to stay in Pearl City?"
"Well, I've heard a little bit about what's going on with your in-laws. You've just recovered from a serious illness, so as children, we have to spend more time with them. It would be more convenient for you to stay in Mingzhu City."
Jiang Ning was surprised for a while when she heard this, and then she was deeply moved. She didn't expect that Chen Yuan's biological father would even consider this... She and Chen Yuan had to take care of Linzhou, and after Jiang Ruxue came out, she would have to run back and forth between the two places and also take exams.
In fact, Jiang Ning has already prepared for a long battle, fighting on two fronts. She must get through this torturous growth period no matter what. After all, she can't give up her studies, and she can't let go of her family even more.
She hasn't discussed this matter with Chen Yuan and her sister yet. Whether Yaoyao is willing to stay in Lanjing is still a question. Yaoyao can't stand being alone and can't sleep at night.
However, once the contract was signed, everything was solved.
To be honest, since meeting Liu He until now when she left Kyoto, Chen Yuan's family has been very kind to the two sisters. They take care of them like their own daughters and are very careful.
Of course she can feel whether it is true or not.
"I'll discuss this with Chen Yuan. This kind of thing always depends on his opinion."
"He has already signed it."
"Really? Then I..." Jiang Ning hesitated.
After a while,
Jiang Ning walked out of the study and ran into Chen Yuan as soon as she went out.
He's waiting outside.
"What did I tell you?" Chen Yuan asked curiously, tugging at her sleeve and pulling her aside.
"Your father signed me up to Jiang's. If you stay in Mingzhu City, I'll stay here too. It's just right that I can take care of mom for a while after I pick her up." Jiang Ning was still a little confused holding the documents in her hand, and asked carefully, "How long will you stay in Mingzhu City?"
"It's hard to say. It could be as short as three months, or as long as three months."
"Three months... at least it's definitely enough for the exam."
The two of them walked downstairs while talking, and Jiang Zhengfeng had already packed up and was ready to go on a business trip. After saying goodbye to the three juniors, he left home first.
For a while, Chen Yuan and his two sisters were the only ones left at home.
The elders were all busy with their own affairs.
Leaning on the sofa, Chen Yuan looked quite listless. Jiang Ning was also thinking about something. Jiang Yao saw it and felt anxious, not knowing what was going on.
"Tell me what happened? Did you have a fight?" She asked with concern, hugging the pillow.
"Change of plans..."
"what?"
"We may have to stay in Mingzhu City for a while, Yaoyao," Jiang Ning whispered, "Chen Yuan's biological father ordered him to be transferred here. We have to put Linzhou aside first. We can't go back to Lanjing in a short time."
"Ah?" Jiang Yao was stunned.
She had been planning to return to Lanjing for a long time. When she heard the news, her face suddenly turned bitter. In Lanjing, she was free and happy, and no one cared about her. In Mingzhu City, with Jiang Ruxue, a big Buddha, suppressing her, how many days of good life could she have? I'm afraid she will never be as unscrupulous as before.
"It seems like I guessed her worries," Ningning took the initiative to say, "It's okay, we don't have to live at home. If things don't work out, we can rent a house for the three of us to live together. You can do whatever you want and just come home occasionally."
"That being said...I don't want to move." Yaoyao lay down on the sofa, as if she had lost all her strength.
"How about Yaoyao go back to Lanjing? I go back every week——"
"Weeks? Calculating by weeks won't work. I have to see you every day. I will miss you to death if I don't see you. Husband...you're going to abandon me right after we agreed to get engaged?" She became even more unwilling when she heard this.
"That's right. It's safer if we stay together. I'd be worried even if one of us is separated." Jiang Ning made the final decision.
"What about moving?"
"move place!"
……
The air smells of sunshine, and the hot weather is getting worse day by day. Although there are no cicadas chirping on both sides of the road, there are countless water stains. Sprinkler trucks go back and forth several times a day to cool down the asphalt road that is so hot that it can be used for teppanyaki.
Completed this major event in life.
When driving back.
Chen Yuan and the two sisters felt that the wind had become gentler, and they felt particularly at ease.
Jiang Ning watched Yaoyao and Chen Yuan playing and fighting as usual, with a peaceful smile on her face.
She would never have thought of it.
What did Jiang Yao and Chen Yuan do at night on the day of their engagement?
That night, Yaoyao found an opportunity to quarrel with Ningning, and then Chen Yuan had no choice but to coax her, but he didn't come back all night.
The two of them looked normal the next day.
But their actions became more and more intimate day by day. Jiang Yao was getting more and more attached to Chen Yuan. They would hug each other and kiss each other all the time, and they were whispering more and more.
Jiang Ning didn't know that the two men had taken the last step with her on their backs, completely maxing out their intimacy value.
Chen Yuan also became a real man.
After the family dinner that night, Jiang Yao wore a dress and became Chen Yuan's bride. It was a natural progression, and since she already had a formal status, she fulfilled her long-cherished wish.
If she knew.
Jiang Ning was probably going to be pissed to death.
She didn't notice anything yet, but she felt that Jiang Yao and Chen Yuan were looking at each other more and more, and there seemed to be endless little secrets in their whispers... (End of this chapter)
