There was also Mrs. Shen who was equally unhappy.
Which family would marry off their daughter so cheaply? Dong Ru zhu, the fool, deserved to be cheated out of forty million.
Seeing that Madam Song hesitated, Dong Ru zhu kicked Song Shicheng, who was sitting across from her, under the table.
Song Shicheng raised his eyebrows and grabbed her ankle, stroking it in his palm without a word. "Mrs. Shen makes a good point. The marriage between our families is of great importance. We must make sure to prepare enough dowry and gifts to save face, otherwise the reporters will definitely write whatever they want."
"That's right. Later, we can each make a list of expenses and find someone who knows the situation to leak it to the reporters. Once they get the list, they will naturally publicize it widely. Then we can let the public relations department of our company handle it, and the stock prices of both families will definitely soar." Dong Ru zhu endured the friction on her ankle, suppressed her rising desire, and pretended that nothing had happened.
Madam Song couldn't help but frown. This didn't sound like a marriage, but more like a business deal.
"I don't agree! Without the dowry, you can forget about marrying my granddaughter." The old lady was very dissatisfied. She had hoped to use this marriage to get back the forty million that Xingkong had cheated her out of, but she never expected Dong Ru zhu to be such a fool who could only make things worse.
"In short, without one billion, there will be no marriage! Xingkong, let's go home." The old lady stood up in anger, pulling Xingkong to leave.
Shen Xingkong had already anticipated that the old lady would make an outrageous demand, and that Dong Ru zhu would not hesitate to offer any condition to marry her off quickly and save Shen Xinai. But when it really came to this, she couldn't help but feel desolate.
In the Shen family, she was just an object.
An object used to exchange benefits, and no one cared about her feelings.
Dong Ru zhu became anxious and didn't care that her ankle was still being held by Song Shicheng. She hurriedly chased after them.
Song Shicheng: "..."
"What's wrong?" Madam Song noticed Song Shicheng's unusual behavior and asked with concern.
Song Shicheng pursed his lips and shook his head. "It's nothing."
"Mom! What are you doing?" Dong Ru zhu stopped the old lady and pulled Xingkong behind her. "Mom, stop making a scene. People will laugh at us."
"Why am I making a scene when I ask for a dowry for my granddaughter?"
Dong Ru zhu was almost driven crazy.
You want a dowry, but what about the bride's dowry?
This is really outrageous.
But she couldn't say it directly. Dong Ru zhu was at a loss and couldn't afford to delay any longer. The longer it took, the more Xinai would suffer.
Xingkong stood aside, watching coldly.
These people treated her like a commodity, pushing her back and forth for their own purposes.
One day, they would regret what they had done.
"Mom, you go back first. Let's discuss it again later. Don't make a scene." Dong Ru zhu restrained herself and forcefully took the old lady back.
The old lady's face turned sour. She slapped the table and said sternly, "I'm telling you now, without a dowry of one billion, there's no discussion."
"Grandma, I don't need a dowry." At this moment, Xingkong suddenly spoke up.
The old lady glared at her coldly. "Shut up!"
"Xingkong, what do you mean?" Dong Ru zhu was on guard when she heard Xingkong's words, afraid that she would cause trouble again.
"I don't mean anything. I just fell in love with Mr. Song at first sight, so I don't want a dowry. I just want to get married to him overseas as soon as possible." Xingkong's words stunned everyone.
Especially Song Yunfei.
He looked at Shen Xingkong suspiciously, love at first sight? He couldn't see any admiration for himself in her eyes.
"Xingkong, don't be silly!" The old man who had been silent finally spoke, frowning and looking worriedly at Xingkong. "You don't have to sacrifice yourself for someone else."
"Grandpa, I haven't. I really like Mr. Song and I want to marry him." Xingkong bit her lip, blushing as she spoke to the old man, stealing a glance at Song Yunfei.
The old man didn't know what to say when he saw her shy look.
Song Yunfei is not a suitable match.
Dong Ru zhu secretly sneered, superficial.
Just like her mother, she can't take her eyes off a man.
This is good, so she doesn't have to worry too much.
"Well then, let's go abroad tomorrow and register in Las Vegas," Dong Ru zhu suggested.
"Is that too hasty? Xingkong is still young. It's okay to get engaged first and get married in a few years," the old man said.
"Let's listen to Mrs. Shen. Arrange for them to go to Las Vegas tomorrow," Song Shicheng said.
His and Dong Ru zhu's thoughts were the same. Registering in Las Vegas is the fastest way.
They can't wait too long for Xinai to be rescued.
Secondly, registering in Las Vegas is not recognized in China, so after rescuing Xinai, they can find a reason to drive Shen Xingkong out.
After all, leaving her in the Song family would undoubtedly leave a bomb by their side.
After the matter was settled, she had to die. Mrs. Song had no choice but to nod her head since her husband had said so. Song Yunfei smirked, a layer of sinister smile coating his delicate face. He had a gut feeling that Shen Xingkong was lying and planning something. Looking at her exquisite face, Song Yunfei felt a tingling sensation. She was different from Huo Qingyan's seductiveness. Her innocence was mixed with an irresistible charm that was too tempting. His evil eyes fell on her cherry lips, and he used his tongue to lick his cheek, his eyes shining with a green glow like a wolf. He couldn't wait to try her out. "Miss Shen fell in love with me at first sight?" Xingkong pretended not to notice his greedy gaze and nodded shyly. "Hmm!" "What a coincidence, I also fell in love with Miss Shen at first sight." "Ah? Really?" Xingkong looked at Song Yunfei with surprise, but she couldn't stop laughing coldly in her heart. You demon, don't you fall in love at first sight with every pretty girl? His androgynous face was really nauseating. "I wonder how far Miss Shen's love for me has gone? Will you only marry me?" Xingkong shook her head. "No, no, no. I have already thought of our child's name!" Song Yunfei's smile froze instantly, and his narrow eyes quickly flashed with embarrassment as if someone had touched a sore spot.
Xingkong continued to poke at his sore spot, "Yun Fei, you must really like children. Don't worry, I'll definitely give you lots of children!"
Song Yun Fei clenched his fist, his face cold and pale, frighteningly so.
Xingkong suppressed the wild excitement in her heart and continued, "Our children will definitely be as good-looking as you."
