When Chen Zhan and He Lingyu heard that their son had something happy to tell them when he returned, the eyes of the old couple immediately lit up.
Has his son achieved any earth-shattering achievements?
"Xiao Xuan, tell me what happy event it is. Mom and your dad are listening."
He Lingyu's eyes were full of smiles.
Chen Xuan also smiled: "This great joy is that I decided to get engaged to Binglan."
"real?"
When Chen Zhan and He Lingyu heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and then excitement and joy immediately appeared on their faces.
"Son, you finally proposed marriage to daughter Binglan?
Great! Great!”
He Lingyu was so excited that she almost shed tears.
Chen Zhan also had a look of relief in his eyes. The couple had finally looked forward to this day.
His son has become famous, and the most important thing left in his life is getting married.
This is also the only thing the two elders worry about for Chen Xuan.
That's why I was so excited when I heard Chen Xuan say it.
"Mom, it doesn't count me proposing the marriage. The engagement is a decision made jointly by Binglan and I."
Chen Xuan smiled and said, "The engagement date will be determined soon. I have already asked people to arrange the engagement banquet. When I come back this time, I will take you to Huadu, the capital of our province. The engagement banquet will be held in the provincial capital.
."
"Okay, let's go quickly and meet daughter Binglan and her parents first."
He Lingyu said in an impatient tone.
The surrounding neighbors were extremely envious and congratulated Chen Zhan and He Lingyu one after another.
On the same day, Chen Xuan drove his parents to the capital of Yundong Province.
Since he had not yet bought a house in the provincial capital and could not let his parents live in Zhang Zhicheng or Tang Qiuling's house, he arranged for them to stay in the most luxurious five-star hotel in the provincial capital.
The same goes for Shen Binglan's parents, who live in the same hotel as Chen Xuan's parents.
The two families met at the hotel and had a meal.
Of course, He Lingyu and Shen Chi, Fang Bijun and Chen Zhan were overjoyed to meet their in-laws.
The four elders were chatting and laughing at the dinner table, and Shen Binglan looked at Chen Xuan and said softly: "Originally, I planned to ask Miss Ji to help us choose a good and auspicious day. I thought her fortune telling was so good that the day she chose must be good, but she
But he declined me politely, I don’t know why.”
"oh?
Ji Wushuang, aren't you willing to help us choose an engagement day?
Then let’s find someone else, I think Abbot Du’e of Luyun Temple or Master Yun of Qingyun Mountain will be fine.”
Chen Xuan didn't care much about Ji Wushuang's rejection of Shen Binglan.
After all, Ji Wushuang's thoughts are not something that ordinary people can fathom.
Even Chen Xuan himself found it difficult to see through.
But Shen Binglan had another idea.
That's because Ji Wushuang refused to help them choose a date. Could it be that she said she didn't like Chen Xuan, but in her heart she still cared about her engagement to Chen Xuan?
Of course, Shen Binglan has already approved the engagement by majority vote and will not inquire about Ji Wushuang's thoughts anymore.
Hearing what Chen Xuan said, she nodded and said, "Then I'll go ask Abbot Du'e. I'll ask you to keep an eye on the progress of the wedding company."
"Okay, I will."
Chen Xuan called the most famous wedding company in the provincial capital early this morning and asked it to organize his and Shen Binglan's engagement party.
Now you only need to determine the date, send out invitations, and the engagement party can be held.
While eating, Chen Xuan suddenly received a call from Manager Lin of the wedding company.
"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, I have something to trouble you. A big shot in our company came and said that he wanted to make an appointment for an engagement party. However, you have already made a reservation for the engagement party within this week. The big shot wants us to cancel, but we don't dare.
I offend him, so can you come to our company and talk to him?"
"What big shot?"
Chen Xuan asked with a slight frown.
Manager Lin said with a somewhat bitter tone: "That person didn't state his identity clearly, but based on my years of vision, I can see that that person's identity is not simple."
"Okay, then let me come over."
The wedding company is about a forty-minute drive from Chen Xuan's hotel.
At this time, the employees in this company were panicking because of the big shot.
Because they heard that if their company didn’t cancel Chen Xuan’s reservation, the big shot would put their company out of business! Everyone could tell from this tone that the person coming was definitely of high status! Manager Lin was in the VIP room,
Entertain the big shot he calls you.
I saw a young man wearing simple black casual clothes sitting on the largest independent sofa in the VIP room. This young man's face was full of anger and impatience.
In front of him stood an old man with a stooped figure and a simple military uniform. This old man had a wrinkled face and nearly all his teeth. He was at least eighty or ninety years old.
At this age, most elderly people enjoy comfort at home.
But he could only stand in front of the young man with his head bowed, as if he had made a mistake and was waiting for punishment.
"Old Man Mao, I'm not telling you, but you can't even handle this matter for our Xin family?
Then what use do you have at your age?"
The young man opened his mouth and scolded him unceremoniously.
"Xin, Mr. Xin, I came to see Manager Lin. He said that the engagement party within this week has been booked. I, I can't do anything."
Old Man Mao explained timidly.
The young man known as Mr. Xin shook his head, obviously even more dissatisfied with the old man: "If someone makes an appointment, you can't let them cancel it?
What is the identity of our Xin family, and what is the identity of the person who made the appointment?
Who dares to grab an engagement banquet reservation from us?"
When Manager Lin, who was standing opposite Mr. Xin, heard this, he thought to himself, the person who made an appointment with us for the engagement banquet is Doctor Chen, and he is not necessarily false to you, Xin Yuchen.
Even if Manager Lin didn't know the details of Chen Xuan's status, he still had a rough idea. In his eyes, Chen Xuan was one of the top big shots in Yundong Province.
Although Xin Yuchen appeared to be awesome and coaxing, he did not tell his true identity after all.
Old Man Mao was scolded by Xin Yuchen so much that he could only obey and did not dare to answer.
Seeing Old Man Mao like this, Xin Yuchen shook his head again: "If my great-grandfather hadn't told you before his death that you stay in our Xin family, for an old waste like you, I would have kicked you out long ago!"
"Master Xin, no, don't drive me away!"
Old Man Mao was so frightened that he quickly begged for mercy, "My wife can't do any work now, and she relies on me to support her. If you drive me away, my wife and I won't be able to survive!"
His wife was infertile, so the two of them had no children or grandchildren when they were in their eighties or nineties, and all other relatives had died long ago in that war-torn era.
Old Man Mao fought with Xin Yuchen's great-grandfather and survived.
It's just that in peaceful times, he did not receive very good treatment, because the descendants of the Xin family not only did not respect him, but also looked down on him and disliked him very much.
