Chapter 1533: Only Once
For this meal, Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua ate until they became the audience watching the ‘show’ throughout. They felt that their own jaws were dropping. Ye Ling had a good temper throughout. He had the cold and arrogant look of ‘I’m just acting as a human’, and he forced himself to present a gentlemanly warm attitude.
Although it was not the impression of a son-in-law meeting his mother-in-law, he was considered to have given them face. He gave them gifts and betrothal gifts, and his attitude in proposing was rather proper. He was likable, and his job prospects were good. His salary was high and stable, and he was handsome.
He satisfied all three 18’s of a ‘Mr. Perfect’. He was simply China’s flawless and good son-in-law. After all, their request for Ye Ling at the beginning was only for him not to throw his temper and leave halfway and make the atmosphere tense. The situation now made everyone happy.
Gu Chun was not too happy in his heart. He became a little suspicious of himself. Could it be that I have some misunderstanding towards Ye Ling? Did I not understand him well enough? He is obviously not like the lunatic from the rumors at all.
Gu Yuanli thought in his heart, Insanity is very scary. He’s pretending!
Acting!
He could not help himself from staring at Gu Xie. Look at others. Are you fit to be the Movie King?
Gu Xie, who was unjustly ridiculed just by being present, was at a loss. Lin Xiaojuan held his hand gently. Stay calm, stay calm. There’s nothing to fuss about. This is nothing. It’s a piece of cake.
Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua were like in the state of obedient babies throughout. They maintained a high level of unity with Ye Ling. It was a conflict close to home. Ye Ling was not bothered about other things at all. He had an upright attitude as he faced Gu Chun, who made things difficult for him.
As they were discussing the wedding, Gu Chun originally wanted to discuss the details of the wedding. In the end, their discussion failed. The old feudal felt that the date was not auspicious and wanted to change to another date. Who knew that there was another old feudal who was more stubborn than him? Ye Ling felt that the Mid-Autumn Festival was a better date and that there was nothing wrong.
In the end, the things that should be discussed did not have a conclusion. The things that should not be discussed had a conclusion instead. The wedding would be held as planned. They still had to come up with the dowry. Ye Ling originally said that Shen Qianshu did not need any dowry. It did not matter. He did not care.
But Gu Chun could not tolerate it.
My Ghost City’s little princess is getting married without a dowry. Who are you looking down on? Besides having to give dowry, the few brothers also wanted to give her dowry. This was a very considerable amount of fortune.
It was equal to half a Ghost City. Ye Ling implicitly expressed that he did not mind too much about the dowry. If Ghost City was very concerned, he could force himself to accept it. In the end, the discussion about dowry was settled.
Fang Hongxiu did not know whether to laugh or to cry. When she looked at Gu Chun’s humiliated expression, she pursed her lips and smiled. She did not get involved in her daughter’s family matters. Shen Qianshu was someone who had her own mind.
She did not wish to interfere with anything. She had missed more than 20 years of Shen Qianshu’s life. She only wanted to go along with Shen Qianshu and love Shen Qianshu. She wanted to watch her spend her days in bliss.
This was her greatest blessing.
The hatred and resentment in the past would all be written off.
A meal had created semi-reconciliation between Ghost City and AG. Conciliation was considered to be around the corner. During the return journey, Ye Ling resumed the look of Master Ye Ling. He did not say a single word throughout the journey and was very cold.
Shen Qianshu said, “Did you act happily?”
Ye Ling sneered and did not reply. Tong Hua felt that he had been taught something. He did not expose his daddy for the time being on account that he did not forget about him today. He let him off. After all, he had also been threatened recently.
If he was really thrown to South America, who should he look for to cry?
“Only once,” Ye Ling said very unwillingly. He was not good at this kind of occasion. He wished so much that he could seal himself off in Rose Castle after he knocked off and be with only Shen Qianshu in the castle.
