Chapter 764: Chapter 0764: Sun Zhuangjia’s Strategy

"Congratulations, congratulations."

Applause and congratulatory voices filled the air incessantly.

"What is Sun Zhuangjia up to?"

Seeing Sun Zhuangjia so actively involved, Tang Ming began to wonder. Logically speaking, since the Li Family was an ally of the Sun Family, if he and Li Wenxuan really became a couple, the Li Family would inevitably look down on the Sun Family, which seemed not in line with the interests of the Sun Family; there must be a conspiracy.

Old Master Su and Old Master Sun successively congratulated the people from the Li Family, and at that moment, Sun Zhuangjia made his way to the podium.

"Miss Li, Mr. Tang, congratulations on your union."

Sun Zhuangjia looked at Li Wenxuan and Tang Ming with a sincere face and congratulated them.

"Thank you." Li Wenxuan nodded lightly, then, pulling Tang Ming, walked off the stage.

"Cough cough, ladies and gentlemen,"

After calling out twice with the microphone, Sun Zhuangjia, smiling, said, "Good things come in pairs; today is Miss Li Wenxuan and Mr. Tang Ming’s engagement day, a joyous occasion, and now I would like to complete another joyous event. Please, everyone, bear witness and give me some encouragement."

"Hahaha, Brother Sun, whatever the happy event, the Li Family will definitely support it."

Li Wenmao was the first to express his stance. Sun Zhuangjia had played a significant role in facilitating the engagement between Tang Ming and Li Wenxuan, and now it was time to reciprocate.

"Grandfather Su, Su Xiaoxi and I grew up together as childhood sweethearts. You have seen all my affection for her over the years. I now wish to ask for your blessing to also set our wedding date today."

Looking earnestly at Old Master Su, Sun Zhuangjia sincerely spoke, and as soon as his words ended, he took out a diamond ring from his pocket and, full of affection, walked toward Su Xiaoxi and knelt on one knee, "Xiaoxi, marry me. I will cherish you for a lifetime."

Seeing this, everyone was momentarily stunned. This was an engagement party for the Li Family, and Sun Zhuangjia was also seizing the opportunity to propose?

Though they did not understand, seeing Sun Zhuangjia, the host, proposing, everyone naturally applauded.

"You, you, you..."

Su Xiaoxi was completely stunned; she hadn’t expected Sun Zhuangjia to pull such a move. In the past, she could have asked Tang Ming to intervene, but now that Tang Ming was already Li Wenxuan’s fiancé, there was no possibility of him acting as her shield anymore.

Although powerful Martial Arts practitioners could have multiple wives and concubines, both the Li Family and the Su Family, being prominent Martial Arts Families, would not allow the women of their families to share a husband, so Su Xiaoxi had no way of getting Tang Ming to handle the situation.

"So the trap was here."

Seeing this scene, Tang Ming suddenly realized. No wonder Sun Zhuangjia had been so eager to facilitate his marriage to Li Wenxuan; it turned out this guy was clearing the obstacles for himself. Now, even if Tang Ming wanted to help Su Xiaoxi, he was powerless.

Sun Zhuangjia looked sincerely at Su Xiaoxi, but inside, he felt a burst of triumph.

All this was within his calculations. Previously, he had instructed Li Wenmao to never let Li Wenxuan know the real purpose of this banquet to avoid Li Wenxuan blaming the Li Family for using her name to advance their family interests. So Li Wenxuan thought the Li Family truly intended to find her a match.

Based on previous investigations and his interactions with Jack, Sun Zhuangjia knew that Tang Ming had once pretended to be Li Wenxuan’s boyfriend. Once he knew that a matchmaking banquet was arranged, he would inevitably attend with Tang Ming, thus facilitating their marriage. This would allow him to propose to Su Xiaoxi while she was unprepared and Tang Ming unable to assist, forcing her to agree under the pressure of maintaining face.

As long as Su Xiaoxi agreed to this proposal, Sun Zhuangjia was confident that Old Master Su would accept him as a grandson-in-law. This would allow him not only to win the bride but also to form an alliance with the Su Family, achieving two goals at once.

"Grandfather..."

Looking at Sun Zhuangjia kneeling before her, Su Xiaoxi turned to Old Master Su for help.

"Hahaha, very well, very well."

Old Master Su did not know Su Xiaoxi’s true thoughts and had always thought that Su Xiaoxi and Sun Zhuangjia were dating, so he was quite supportive of this marriage proposal, smiling as he said, "You two have been together for a long time; you know and understand each other well. It’s time to put the wedding on the agenda."

"Be together, be together."

The guests at the scene all clapped their hands; such a moment certainly required playing along.

"No way."

Seeing that Old Master Su hadn’t waited for her opinion, Su Xiaoxi quickly shouted, "I already have a boyfriend."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, those who had voiced their support just moments ago were suddenly silenced. What was this all about?

"Xiaoxi, stop messing around."

Sun Zhuangjia, unconcerned, still spoke affectionately, "I know you still want to have a few more years of fun. I won’t mind it. Let’s just agree on the marriage today, and whenever you are ready, we’ll officially get married. It won’t affect you in any way."

"I really do have a boyfriend."

Su Xiaoxi glared fiercely at Sun Zhuangjia. He knew well that she didn’t like him, yet he was still pulling such stunts, which was infuriating.

"Xiaoxi, when did you get a boyfriend? How come I don’t know about it?"

Old Master Su looked at Su Xiaoxi with confusion. The girl would always tell him everything immediately, so how could there be no hint about such a big matter?

"I haven’t had the chance to mention it yet."

Su Xiaoxi, frowning, felt a wave of helplessness. Old Master Su did not know about Tang Ming because he was just a shield for her. Thus, she had not reported this to the family. Had she known it would come to this... she still couldn’t have reported it. Otherwise, letting Old Master Su know that Li Wenxuan’s fiancé was also her boyfriend would probably end badly for Tang Ming.

"Grandpa Su, don’t listen to Xiaoxi’s nonsense. She doesn’t have a boyfriend at all. It’s just that she got mad at me earlier and is now in a bad mood."

Sun Zhuangjia stood up, looking affectionately at Su Xiaoxi, "I proposed today just to make her happy, hoping she would stop being mad."

"Hahaha, Brother Su, you’ve watched these two kids grow up. I think it’s good to settle the wedding matters as early as possible."

Sun Mantang said with a laugh as he looked at Old Master Su.

"I feel the same way, it’s just that Xiaoxi..." Old Master Su looked at Su Xiaoxi uncertainly. He did not want to force Su Xiaoxi to do anything, especially not something as serious as marriage.

"Xiaoxi, I know I was wrong, so please don’t fend me off with such an excuse."

Sun Zhuangjia looked at Su Xiaoxi somewhat displeased.

"I really do have a boyfriend, and you ought to know that."

Su Xiaoxi looked expectantly at Sun Zhuangjia.

"I had no idea! If so, then call your boyfriend over, let everyone see, otherwise, I will never give up."

Sun Zhuangjia glanced at Tang Ming among the crowd, insistently looking at Su Xiaoxi.

"He’s too busy with work, he doesn’t have time."

Su Xiaoxi had no choice but to respond assertively.
