To marry into the family in place of his brother? Impossible!

Jiang Jinhuan frowned, unable to understand for a moment.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't have approved of the marriage alliance either. From their first meeting, Song Qingci had never given him a kind look.

They also showed no interest in themselves.

She should have chosen Xu Zifeng.

If it wasn't because of the arranged marriage, why would he do this? Was it as compensation?

Is she making amends to herself?

Thinking of this, Jiang Jinhuan instantly felt much more relaxed.

As long as he doesn't marry into Song Qingci's family or become an adopted son-in-law, everything is negotiable.

Even if Song Qingci were a goddess from the heavens, and she gave him all her connections and resources, he would never agree to marry into her family.

Since they were introduced by Song Qingci, they must all be capable and influential people.

During this time, some people inevitably wanted to test Jiang Jinhuan's abilities.

After several rounds, Jiang Jinhuan's performance impressed everyone present.

He answered those questions fluently and clearly, and could express his own insights on both macroeconomics and microeconomics.

Song Qingci stood to the side, a smile already playing on her lips, seemingly quite pleased with Jiang Jinhuan.

In the distance, Song's father frowned slightly as he watched this scene. "What a good child, why doesn't Qingci like him?"

Song's mother asked, "How did your talks with the Xu family go?"

"Of course they'd be willing! Don't they know who my daughter is!"

Song's mother said, "Now there's only one thing left: how to reasonably and justifiably terminate this marriage agreement with the Jiang family."

Mr. Song frowned: "Yes, this is difficult! Almost everyone here knows we're going to announce Qingci's marriage, and it doesn't seem right to say nothing!"

Song's mother said, "Then we can only find an excuse to brush this off for now, like saying Qingci is still considering it, or some other excuse!"

Mr. Song nodded, "That's the only way. If all else fails, we can just announce our intention to form a marriage alliance with the Xu family. In any case, Jiang Jinhuan will personally explain this to the old man."

……

The banquet quickly progressed to its second half, and amidst everyone's anticipation, Mr. and Mrs. Song appeared in the center of the hall.

Everyone looked at Mr. and Mrs. Song, eagerly awaiting their arrival.

After all, this matter concerns the marriage of Jiangcheng's most beautiful female CEO.

They had known the news in advance, and now the crucial moment had finally arrived.

Song Qingci's heart suddenly started racing.

She knew that what her parents were going to announce this time was her engagement to Jiang Jinhuan.

This was something that had been agreed upon long ago.

She looked at Jiang Jinhuan beside her and felt inexplicably nervous.

This was something she had never done before.

I never felt this nervous or afraid of being rejected when I was with other men before.

At this moment, Song's father had already picked up the microphone. His gaze swept over Jiang Jinhuan, revealing a regretful expression.

Jiang Jinhuan keenly noticed this and was secretly delighted.

It seems that Song Qingci took his words to heart last time.

The Song family already wants to cancel the marriage, so all he needs to do now is explain the situation to Old Master Song.

But since the engagement is already being dissolved, why didn't the Song family send her to explain to Old Master Song beforehand?

But it doesn't matter. Let's confirm this first, and then we can explain it. That will be much more efficient.

Thinking of this made Jiang Jinhuan feel even better.

She couldn't help but look at Luo Qingyi.

Luo Qingyi also noticed Jiang Jinhuan's gaze and nodded slightly to him with gentle eyes.

A slight smile appeared on Luo Qingyi's lips.

Only Jiang Zhe's face turned ashen.

He noticed that Song's father's gaze had just fallen on Jiang Jinhuan.

In his view, the Song family had indeed chosen Jiang Jinhuan as their son-in-law.

This means that Jiang Jinhuan has gained the approval of the Song family.

This made him very unhappy.

Although he had successfully arranged a marriage with Song Qingci long ago, the Song family never recognized his identity or publicly supported him until his death.

However, on such an important occasion as today, the Song family's public recognition of Jiang Jinhuan's status as a son-in-law is an affirmation of him and a way to pave the way for him.

But on what grounds?

Jiang Zhe's eyes were ferocious. He glanced to the side, where someone was nodding slightly to him.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhe revealed a sly smile: "Hehe, Jiang Jinhuan, you think you can enter the Song family? Dream on! I'll show you what it means to be utterly disgraced."

I will make sure the Song family completely excludes you from their list of potential marriage partners!

At this point, after expressing his regret, Song's father had no choice but to speak up.

After all, all the families had received the news, and it would be impolite of him to remain silent today.

He was just worried about how to bring it up.

He looked at Jiang Guodong.

But they found that Jiang Guodong didn't react at all, and his expression was even a little cold.

Mr. Song was slightly taken aback. In fact, they had already informed the Jiang family that they would announce their marriage alliance with the Jiang family today.

Of course, this was before Xu Zifeng appeared, before they changed their minds.

Logically, the Jiang family should be happy about the marriage alliance with the Song family.

However, Jiang Guodong kept a gloomy face, and even Jiang Jinhuan's mother did not come.

This means that Jiang Jin Huan is completely disregarded.

How much must the Jiang family hate Jiang Jinhuan to do this?

However, seeing the other party like this made him feel a little more relaxed, and he made up his mind to publicly clarify his relationship with the Jiang family and not to arrange any more marriages with them in the future.

Finally, Mr. Song spoke, "Thank you all for gracing us with your presence today. I have something to announce."

The audience fell silent instantly.

Mr. Song continued, "This matter is related to my daughter, Qingci!"

A blush had appeared on Song Qingci's cheeks without her noticing.

She glanced at Jiang Jinhuan discreetly, then quickly looked away.

His fingers were nervously hooked together.

Sister Qian, who was standing next to her, was extremely shocked. When had her boss ever been so nervous?

Could it be because of Xu Zifeng? It seems our CEO really likes Xu Zifeng.

You only have this expression when you like someone; you're afraid and nervous, terrified that the other person doesn't like you back.

At this moment, in the hall, Mr. Song, holding the microphone, hesitated for a moment, then looked apologetically at Jiang Guodong: "I'm sure you've heard some rumors before, namely about my daughter and the Jiang family..."

But before Song's father could finish speaking, the large screen at the front of the banquet hall suddenly lit up.

A sudden flash of light interrupted Song's father's words.

The other guests also looked in astonishment at the large screen in the lobby.

Mr. Song frowned; he had not arranged this matter.

Song Qingci also looked at the big screen with some displeasure.

"What happened?" Mr. Song asked.

One of the staff members said, "We'll go check it out right away!"

Making such a mistake in such an important situation could cost you your job.

These are all wealthy and prestigious families.

Interrupting the head of a top-tier wealthy family in this way while they are speaking can have serious consequences.
