The aunt was surprised by the boy's well-behaved and obedient appearance. She was stunned for a moment and then turned to the kitchen to get some soup.

Not far away, the groom Chen Fan's group of best men and friends gathered together, glancing at the sofa area from time to time and whispering to each other.

The core of the topic, of course, revolved around Chen Ming and the two stunning girls beside him...

"Brother Fan, your cousin's girlfriend... no, their girlfriends, are so amazing, aren't they? One is almost 1.8 meters tall in high heels, and the other one is even taller than 1.8 meters in embroidered shoes. Her legs, waist, and temperament... are simply amazing! They are more than one level more beautiful than the recognized number one campus beauty in our university!" A groomsman exclaimed in amazement, his tone full of envy.

"The key is two! Both of them are of this level!" The other groomsman lowered his voice, his face filled with disbelief. "How could one man date two such beautiful girlfriends at the same time? This isn't some online slapstick novel where the hero's halo turns on and beautiful women flock to him in droves."

"Hey, you guys..." A shrewd-looking groomsman stroked his chin and made a bold guess, "Could it be rented? I heard it's popular now to rent girlfriends to go home for the New Year or for occasions. The price ranges from 1000 to 3000 a day for a pure green one. With the grand show your cousin is having today, renting two top-notch beauties to support the occasion isn't impossible."

This speculation immediately resonated with everyone. Everyone nodded thoughtfully, their gazes once again focused on the sofa area, trying to find any clues to prove the "rental".

After all, the scene of being surrounded by beauties on both sides is too dreamy and unreal!

One of the groomsmen (let's call him groomsman Xiao Shuai), who prided himself on being quite handsome and popular among girls on weekdays, couldn't contain his curiosity and decided to go forward and test it out himself.

He adjusted his tie, put on what he thought was the most charming smile, picked up the pack of Zhonghua cigarettes on the table, and walked over confidently.

"Brother, would you like one?" He handed the cigarette to Chen Ming enthusiastically.

Chen Ming looked up at him and waved his hand casually: "Thank you, I don't smoke."

The best man, Xiao Shuai, was met with a setback, but he wasn't discouraged. He immediately turned his attention to the two beauties, smiling even more attentively: "What about those two beauties? Would you like one?"

Li Xiangling and Han Xueyi, with a natural sense of alienation, refused coldly: "No."

Feeling the icy aura, the best man, Xiao Shuai, froze in his smile. He awkwardly put away his cigarette, touched his nose, said an awkward "Excuse me," and sauntered back to his seat. This caused his friends to burst into laughter: the living room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere...

At the same time, my aunt came out of the kitchen with a tray on which were three bowls of steaming longan, red dates and lotus seed soup.

After having breakfast, Li Xiangling and Han Xueyi felt full after a few bites. Looking at the remaining longans and lotus seeds in the bowl, they looked at each other and picked up their spoons at the same time in tacit understanding.

"Brother Ming~" Li Xiangling's voice was soft and coquettish, with a hint of coquettishness, and she scooped up a spoonful of plump lotus seeds. "I really can't eat any more. Can you eat it for me?"

As he said that, he gently put the spoon to Chen Ming's mouth without saying anything.

Almost at the same time, Han Xueyi also scooped up a spoonful of crystal longan, her eyes moving and her smile charming: "Master Ming, these longan are a bit too sweet, I can't handle it, can you help me share some?"

Another spoon was also handed over gently.

Chen Ming was caught off guard, and his mouth was instantly filled with two spoonfuls of sweetness. He chewed it with a "hmm" sound, unable to speak. He could only look at the two of them helplessly and dotingly.

Li Xiangling and Han Xueyi laughed so hard at seeing this - their casual smile immediately made people feel that the room was filled with spring and they felt like they were bathed in a spring breeze.

This extremely intimate and natural feeding interaction left his cousin Chen Fan, who was standing next to him, dumbfounded. His previous doubts about "renting a girlfriend" disappeared in an instant.

Paid actors? Would actors feed their employers so lovingly with a spoon they had just used?

This is all indirect kiss!

Well, maybe there really are actors who are this dedicated...

But Chen Fan would never believe that these two breathtakingly beautiful and elegant girls would do this for a mere "daily salary" of a few thousand yuan!

This was completely beyond his understanding.

The aunt was also puzzled as she watched, and finally she could no longer suppress her strong curiosity, especially when she thought of her son's considerable betrothal gift, she could not help but ask:

"Oh my, look at you two... no, three of you, how sweet! Hey, ladies, you're so lucky and look like fairies. If you were to marry Xiao Ming in the future, how much do you plan to ask for in dowry?"

When she asked this question, she subconsciously wanted to compare herself with her future daughter-in-law, who asked for a betrothal gift of 38.8 yuan and was "ordinary" in every aspect.

In her opinion, for such a fairy-like girl, the bride price must be increased tenfold before she agrees to marry her, right?

Upon hearing this, Li Xiangling and Han Xueyi looked at each other tacitly again, and a smile of understanding flashed in each other's eyes.

Li Xiangling put down the spoon, a pure and satisfied smile on her face, and said in a clear voice: "Aunt, we don't want a betrothal gift. I consider myself an open-minded woman of the new era. As long as I can be with the person I truly love and live happily, betrothal gifts and the like are not important."

Han Xueyi also smiled, her eyes sparkling, and added, "Yes, auntie, asking for a betrothal gift is a custom of the old society when it comes to taking concubines. It feels like selling your daughter. My family doesn't sell our daughters, so it really doesn't matter whether we ask for a betrothal gift or not."

"Ah? This... is so good?"

My aunt was completely stunned, her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief.

She subconsciously looked at Chen Ming, who was surrounded by two stunning beauties on the sofa, and the envy in her eyes was almost overflowing.

Did my nephew save the galaxy in his previous life?

Two such high-quality girls, with fair skin, beautiful looks, tall and slim, and college students, are actually given to them for free?

My aunt felt like she had mixed feelings.

His family's conditions were obviously much better than those of his nephew Chen Ming's family.

My husband is a construction contractor, and I run a busy mahjong parlor in the village...

My son Chen Fan works as a construction worker at a construction site and can earn more than 200,000 yuan a year!

But how could Chen Ming, a man all alone, pick up two well-educated, beautiful girls for free?

My son Chen Fan is so outstanding and has such good conditions, but why is he being controlled by that [future daughter-in-law who dares to boss him around before she even gets married] like a spineless lickspittle?

The more the aunt thought about it, the more she felt wronged. A surge of anger rose in her heart. Taking advantage of the noisy crowd, she dragged Chen Fan, who was dressed neatly to welcome the bride, into the corner of the kitchen.

"Xiao Fan," she lowered her voice, her words tinged with gravel, "Look at the two girls your cousin found! And then look at your ancestor! When he first came to our house, his eyes were almost on top of his head, and he acted arrogantly and bullied Mom! Can't you find someone like Xiao Ming's family? Someone who's beautiful, has a good personality, and knows how to be caring. That's what a proper wife should be!"

The smell of kitchen fumes mixed with the smell of gunpowder from firecrackers outside made my aunt feel extremely resentful.

If she had never seen the sun, she might have endured darkness—after all, in today's society, aren't daughters-in-law all so arrogant? They treat their husbands as slaves and their parents-in-law as enemies...

But the two girls beside Chen Ming shone in blindingly like sunlight that suddenly split the dark clouds.

It made her suddenly realize how thick and suffocating the shadow she had been crawling under for a long time was.

Thinking of this, the aunt added, "Xiao Fan, Mom is so upset! Do you want to think about this wedding more carefully? There are still silly girls in the world who don't seek money or status, but only seek good people. It just takes a pair of eyes that are good at discovering."

Chen Fan, like a frost-bitten eggplant, forced a smile uglier than crying, his voice filled with resigned fatigue: "Mom... where do you want me to go find her? The auspicious time is almost here, you'd better hurry up and prepare the red envelopes for knocking on the door, getting on the car, and changing your words! They're waiting over there!"

"Red envelope? Red envelope!" The aunt seemed to be burned by these two words, and the grievances that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly burst out: "Why is my life so hard! When I was a daughter-in-law, I had to depend on my mother-in-law. Now that I am a mother-in-law, I still have to depend on my daughter-in-law! Can't you find a girl who doesn't want a sky-high bride price and a big house in the city?"

"Mom!" Chen Fan couldn't hold it in any longer, tears rolling down his cheeks. "Times have changed! The kind of girl you're talking about... that's a thing of the past. Where can I find one now?"

……

10:10 am, the auspicious time has arrived!

The sound of firecrackers suddenly exploded, and red debris fell like a heavy rain.

The groom Chen Fanqiang cheered himself up and rushed out of the door with a group of groomsmen, his steps a little dizzy.

Chen Ming, Li Xiangling and Han Xueyi also walked out with the crowd.

What Rolls-Royce has set up is not a symbol, but its back that has been unable to straighten up in recent years.

The moment Chen Ming sat in the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, there was no need to say more. Cullinan would speak for him. Even if he was introverted and didn't like to talk, it would become an advantage in the eyes of others.

Seeing this scene, Chen Fan and his friends were dumbfounded again...

Especially the best man Xiaoshuai who just came to give out cigarettes, now he also understood why he could date two beautiful girlfriends at the same time!

Between him and the other person, there was a bottomless financial gap; they were two completely different worlds...

Chapter 184: Distant Cousin

"Brother Fan," the best man, Xiao Shuai, said with a dry voice and disbelief, "Who on earth is this cousin of yours?"

Chen Fan also looked bewildered. He stared at the luxury car worth tens of millions and muttered, "I said I really don't know. Do you believe me?"

Everyone rolled their eyes at him, "I don't believe you, you're such a bad boy. If you don't want to say it, forget it. Why are you pretending to be so mysterious..."

Chen Fan spread his hands helplessly: "Really? We rarely interact. We used to only have a meal together during the Chinese New Year. Ever since my third uncle and aunt passed away, we haven't even visited during the Chinese New Year. It's been several years..."

After saying that, he didn't care whether his friends believed it or not. He looked at Chen Ming's car with envy, and with a complicated mood, he bent down and got into the BMW 530Li. The front of the car was decorated with a big red rose heart-shaped disc.

The convoy started slowly. Under the uncle's deliberate arrangement, the Rolls-Royce Cullinan was placed in third place, closely following Chen Fan's BMW 530Li. In front of it was the camera car covered in red and decorated with ribbons.

Han Xueyi was still sitting in the driver's seat of Cullinan, her slender fingers resting on the steering wheel, her movements skillful and steady.

The bride's house was not far from her uncle's house, and the wedding convoy had a smooth journey. In less than half an hour, they arrived at a not-so-new but quite tidy community.

Chen Ming, Li Xiangling and Han Xueyi had no intention of joining in the excitement upstairs and chose to stay in the Cullinan, quietly feeling the festive noise outside the car window.

The noise from upstairs could be faintly heard through the car window, filled with worldly bustle and the smell of fireworks.

First, there were the repetitive knocks on the door and the sounds of laughter, followed by a brief silence as red envelopes were constantly stuffed through the crack of the door. Then came the minor hiccups of searching for the bride's red high heels. The groomsmen's jeers and the bridesmaids' harassment intertwined, and the protracted yet lively procession lasted for over ten minutes.

It was not until the "sincerity" of the red envelope seemed to finally meet some invisible standard that a louder cheer erupted from inside the door. Then, the bride in a white wedding dress was carried out by the groom Chen Fan.

Amidst blessings and colorful ribbon fragments, Chen Fan carefully placed the bride into the BMW 530Li.

Many little girls followed, and some of them were wearing bridesmaid outfits and looked quite pretty...

Since we got the marriage certificate first and then held the wedding banquet, we had also held an engagement banquet before, and the betrothal gifts and wedding house had already been arranged.

Therefore, the entire bride-picking process seemed to be extremely smooth, and there were no dramatic conflicts such as those reported on the Internet where the bride price was temporarily increased and things turned sour at the wedding scene.

As the bride was taken away, the men and women who participated in the wedding reception upstairs began to come downstairs one after another, each looking for the vehicle they took when they arrived.

The single young men became active and looked around the crowd, deliberately avoiding the crowd. They secretly hoped that there would be some pretty girls who were alone - especially those wearing bridesmaid dresses - who would ride in the same car with them, hoping that they could have an unexpected encounter.

The girls also began to spontaneously look for empty seats to get on the bus...

Their eyes were almost unanimously drawn to the imposing Rolls-Royce Cullinan driven by Han Xueyi. The luxury car itself was already a focal point, not to mention the fact that it was adorned with wedding balloons, clearly part of the wedding procession.

A group of young girls gathered not far away, whispering excitedly:

"Look at that Rolls-Royce! It looks like it belongs to our team too!"

"It's tied to a balloon, for sure! Who's brave enough to go and ask if they can sit on it?"

"Don't dream, there are already three people sitting inside. I can see it clearly."

"Hey, isn't there an empty co-pilot seat?" A voice came with a hint of cunning and expectation.

"Aren't you curious? How did Chunyan's husband's family get a luxury car of this level?" Another voice was full of inquiry.

"I know, I know!" a more lively bridesmaid rushed to say, "I heard it was driven by the groom's cousin. He seems to be a super rich guy!"

"Hey, stop chatting and find a car quickly. The convoy is about to leave!" someone reminded.

The girls were all eager to try it out, and their eyes kept glancing towards the passenger seat of the Cullinan. They were eager to get closer to the position that symbolized wealth, but were also a little timid about facing the unknown.

Fortunately, there are always extroverted and proactive people among the crowd.

Just as the girls were hesitating, two girls who were also wearing bridesmaid dresses took the lead and walked straight towards Cullinan.

The two noticed each other's intentions almost at the same time, their eyes met briefly in the air, and a tacit sense of competition instantly spread.

Almost subconsciously, they all quickened their pace. One of the bridesmaids, named Lan Xixi, even smiled brightly and trotted to the passenger door.

Seeing this, the other girls' faces flashed with a hint of regret and understanding. Knowing that their "opportunity" had been taken, they also wisely dispersed and went to look for empty spaces in other cars...

Chen Ming, who was waiting for the departure in the car, naturally saw the two bridesmaids walking quickly towards him.

Especially the bridesmaid who successfully got the first chance, she was indeed outstanding in appearance, and overall she could be called a school beauty.

She was wearing an exquisitely designed light blue bridesmaid's gown, the hem flowing and graceful, rising slightly as she ran. Her long, carefully permed, jet-black hair cascaded over her fair, rounded shoulders, gleaming with a healthy sheen in the sunlight. She wore flesh-colored stockings, the delicate texture perfectly framing the slender lines of her legs and adding a touch of softness.

However, even though this bridesmaid was so eye-catching, her exquisite appearance, calm temperament, and perfect body proportions were still inferior to those of Li Xiangling next to Chen Ming and Han Xueyi in the driver's seat. She was like the stars next to the bright moon, beautiful but unable to hide the gap.

System, identification!

[Name]: Lan Qianqian

【Age】:21

[Height]: 164cm

[Weight]: 48kg

【Overall appearance】: 83

【Power Bank】:3

【Status】: Good health

[Favorability]: 20

Seeing that the number of power banks was 3, Chen Ming immediately closed the information panel. Such data no longer interested him...

As for the other bridesmaid, her overall appearance did not reach 80 points, so her information panel was no longer displayed.

With a hint of victory and a slight breath, Lan Xixi quickly opened the passenger door of Cullinan and got in swiftly. The car was immediately filled with an unfamiliar, youthful and energetic perfume.

Another bridesmaid, who was a little slower, stopped outside the window and looked at the already full carriage. Her face was filled with undisguised disappointment, and she could only turn around and leave...
