After Chu Zhaoyang came back from G City, he always wanted Gu Nian to stay at his house on the pretext of working overtime.
But Gu Nian refused to agree no matter what.
First, it was because that night left such a deep impression on her that Gu Nian did not dare to stay. The second reason was because she was worried that Mu Lanshu will be worried about her if she was left alone at home.
When they arrived at Chu Zhaoyang's house, Nanny Yu prepared breakfast and waited for Gu Nian to come over. Chu Zhaoyang and Gu Nian ate together.
"What time are you leaving?" Gu Nian asked.
"It's about ten o'clock." Chu Zhaoyang looked at the time and asked, "Do you want to go with me?"
He knew that she still had no confidence in her heart.
He wanted to let her go and see it with her own eyes.
She thought of Jiang Xiangxue and Xiang Yulan.
Gu Nian shook her head: "It's still not possible to go. If I go, I'm afraid there will be trouble again."
Jiang Xiangxue was getting engaged today. When she saw her, she didn't know if she still feel proud or how to cause trouble.
Chu Zhaoyang did not force her, but said, "You can watch the live broadcast at home."
Gu Nian asked in surprise: "Is there a live broadcast of the engagement?"
It's not like he's a celebrity, so he's so big.
Chu Zhaoyang also said with a look of disgust: "The Jiang family has to do it themselves."
Chu Zhaoyang asked Gu Nian for her phone. The Jiang family negotiated with a well-known domestic video website and bought the website's live video rights.
Gu Nian happened to have the client of this video website on her phone.
"It starts at half past eleven," Chu Zhaoyang said. "In addition to political and business celebrities, the Jiang family has also hired some celebrities to help out."
For some reason, Gu Nian's heart was a little clogged and she had no appetite.
She took a spoon and turned it over in the porridge a few times. She felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, just like when the bowl of porridge was stirred by the spoon.
Even though Chu Zhaoyang told her that there would be no engagement, as Chu Zhaoyang also said, she would never feel at ease until the final result came through.
This heart was always hanging, neither up nor down.
At a quarter past ten, Chu Zhaoyang was ready and was about to go out.
He Haoran had come over and was waiting at the door.
Gu Nian saw Chu Zhaoyang out, not knowing whether this would be the last time.
Standing in the entrance hall, She saw his neat and formal appearance in his suit, showing poise and self-control in every aspect.
Gu Nian couldn't help but think jealously, since he had no intention of getting engaged, why was he still dressed so handsomely?
Looking like this, he looked like a groom-to-be.
"Wait for me at home. If everything goes well, you will be able to see it during the live broadcast." Chu Zhaoyang lowered his head and saw that Gu Nian looked gloomy and lacked energy. He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
"Gu Nian," he shouted.
Gu Nian reluctantly came back to her senses and looked up at him.
"Trust me." Chu Zhaoyang said solemnly.
Gu Nian took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
After Chu Zhaoyang left, Gu Nian clicked on the video client.
The notice had already appeared on the homepage, so Gu Nian clicked on it and waited.
***
Chu Zhaoyang came to Shengyue, and He Haoran handed the car key to Shengyue's parking boy and asked him to drive the car and park it, and followed Chu Zhaoyang in.
At this moment, his phone rang.
He Haoran picked up the call, listened for a while, and said, "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, he said in Chu Zhaoyang's ear: "President, it's all done."
Chu Zhaoyang's calm face also showed a somewhat relaxed expression, and he nodded.
Taking He Haoran into the banquet hall, Chu Jiahong and Xiang Yulan breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he was really here, and hurried over.
Xiang Yulan grabbed Chu Zhaoyang's hand and kept saying: "It's good you came. Zhaoyang, everything is about the overall situation. If anything happens, we will talk about it later."
Chu Zhaoyang coldly pulled out his hand, Xiang Yulan's expression dimmed, and she was about to say something, when suddenly a burst of laughter came in.
Before anyone arrived, the proud and arrogant laughter came first.
Chu Jiahong's face darkened, and he turned around with Xiang Yulan, and saw Jiang Wanli walking over with Tian Xinyue.
"Hahahaha, Zhaoyang, you're here!" Jiang Wanli had an expression on his face that said, "I knew you wouldn't dare not to come."
Chu Zhaoyang nodded coldly: "Mr. Jiang."
"Hey, don't sound so unfamiliar, we will be a family from now on." Jiang Wanli laughed loudly and patted Chu Zhaoyang on the shoulder, "In the future, Jiang Cheng will still need Chutian's support."
Chu Jiahong's face was somber that he couldn't even utter any hypocritical polite words.
On the other hand, Chu Zhaoyang, who always showed his emotions and anger, was no different from usual. He even said, "No problem."
"Hehehe, from now on we are a family. Of course, our family will know some things, and we will help keep them secret. You think so, right?" Jiang Wanli smiled even more proudly.
What about the Chu family?
It's not just about being controlled by him, the Chu family will have to agree with whatever he says.
Whatever he wanted to do, the Chu family must satisfy him immediately.
He wanted Chu Zhaoyang to get engaged to Jiang Xiangxue, and the Chu family had to agree immediately. Chu Zhaoyang even came, so what if he showed a arrogant attitude?
Wasn't he just doing it for others to see?
He still had to be obedient here.
He wanted Chutian to give more benefits to Jiang Cheng, and the Chu family had to agree.
Step by step, Jiang Cheng will slowly swallow up Chutian.
By then, he would no longer be afraid that Jiang Xiangxue would be bullied in the Chu family.
What idea did Chu Jiahong and his wife hae, did they think he didn't know?
They both thought that if Jiang Xiangxue was alone in the Chu family, they could flatten and round them up and let them take revenge.
Too naive!
If he didn't think about how to respond, how could he rashly threaten him?
Xiang Yulan didn't want to look at their proud faces anymore, so she smiled stiffly and asked, "Where is Xiangxue?"
"She is putting on makeup in the lounge, and she will appear when the engagement officially starts later." Tian Xinyue said with a smile, "Xiangxue is today's heroine, so of course she must look her most beautiful."
Chu Zhaoyang listened absently and caught a glimpse of Chu Tian standing glumly not far away, staring at them.
That expression was quite scary, which made others wanted to chat with her, but when they saw her like this, they turned away halfway and did not dare to come forward.
"Excuse me." Chu Zhaoyang said coldly and walked towards Chu Tian.
Chu Tian walked over to him and looked at him with special disdain: "Brother, are you really going to get engaged to that Jiang Xiangxue?"
"Are you angry about this?" Chu Zhaoyang asked calmly.
"What about Gu Nian? Don't you like her very much? You like her, but you want to get engaged to Jiang Xiangxue. What's that? Aren't you a scumbag?" Chu Tian bit her lip angrily, her face turning red.
"I hate scumbags the most, but I didn't expect that my brother would turn out to be a scumbag." Chu Tian said angrily.
"I have heard from my parents. The reason why they agreed is because the Jiang family found somewhere and got that .." Chu Tian lowered her voice for fear of being heard by others, "Video. But brother, as a man, you have to be responsible, how can you be threatened by this?"
"Are you done?" Chu Zhaoyang took two glasses of champagne from the passing waiter's tray and handed one to Chu Tian.
"I don't want to drink, I'm not in the mood." Chu Tian turned away and refused to answer.
Chu Zhaoyang said: "I won't get engaged."
Chu Tian looked at him in surprise and said, "I...I am a simple person, please don't lie to me."
Chu Zhaoyang: "..."
This was really not an opportunity to boast?
"If you're not engaged, then what are you doing here?" Chu Tian asked dubiously.
"Once and for all," Chu Zhaoyang said. Seeing that there were gradually more people, he signaled Chu Tian to stop talking.
At 11:50, the music in the venue was changed, the lights in the entire venue were turned off, and only the follow-up lights were on the stage.
The host stood on the stage and said: "Thank you to all the guests for coming to attend the engagement ceremony of Mr. Chu Zhaoyang and Miss Jiang Xiangxue despite your busy schedule. Today is a happy day, let us witness this beautiful couple together. engagement. First of all, we invite today's leading actor, Mr. Chu Zhaoyang!"
The spotlight came down from the stage, swept around the venue, and finally settled on Chu Zhaoyang.
Chu Zhaoyang handed the champagne to Chu Tian, gave her a firm look, and walked onto the stage with steady steps.
"Next, we invite today's heroine, Miss Jiang Xiangxue!" the host said passionately.
The spotlight swept to the door of the banquet hall, and the door slowly opened to both sides.
