Chapter 889: Chapter 890: 100000000 Still Not Regarded!
After becoming the manager of the Xiao Family in Jiangnan, Xiao Gang personally made a trip to the Capital City and knelt before Xiao Enze to apologize.
The two brothers completely made up.
In truth, there was no real issue, it was just that Xiao Gang couldn’t let it go in his mind.
Now that the knot in his heart had been untied, there were not as many problems anymore.
"Xu Family Patriarch, welcome! Your personal visit to our Fang Family truly adds luster to our humble abode!"
Fang Ming, the Family Head of the Fang Family, and Old Master Fang Enze both greeted him, displaying immense warmth and respect.
This voice pulled Xiao Gang back from his thoughts.
"Why don’t I see Xu Xian?"
Fang Enze asked, puzzled.
Today was meant for matchmaking, but how could it proceed without the main person?
"Xu Xian said today is an important day, so he wants to personally choose a gift for Yu Lan."
Xu Chengxiong looked at Xiao Yulan, truly very pleased.
Xiao Yulan was beautiful and capable, which no man could resist. If only his wife Zhang Meijia were not right beside him, Xu Chengxiong would have liked to take a few more glances at Xiao Yulan to feast his eyes.
"This child, he even prepared a gift. Really great, so sensible and polite. If our family Yu Lan could marry him, that would be fortune accumulated over eight lifetimes,"
Fang Enze said, laughing.
He now treated Xiao Yulan as if she were his own granddaughter.
"Yu Lan, come and meet your future in-laws!"
Fang Enze eagerly pulled Xiao Yulan by the hand and walked over, smiling as he spoke.
"Grandpa, today is just matchmaking, it’s not certain whether it will result in marriage yet, how can I call them in-laws?"
Xiao Yulan frowned as she spoke.
"This child, haven’t you seen Xu Xian’s photo already? Whether he’s here or not, what difference does it make? Besides, has the Xu Family slighted you at all?"
Fang Enze frowned as he spoke.
"Exactly, Yu Lan, sister, where else could you find such a good husband?"
"They fancy you, you should feel honored."
"We would like to marry into that family, but they might not even approve of us!"
"It’s practically a Cinderella story!"
Within the Fang Family, those who were jealous of Xiao Yulan were not few. Today, many girls dressed ostentatiously, hoping to outshine Xiao Yulan.
But Xiao Yulan, having only put on light makeup, completely eclipsed these women, and they were resentful but helpless.
"Hehe, if the child is unwilling to call them that, let’s not force her. I believe, once Xu Xian arrives, Yu Lan will surely like him.
Teacher Fang, please accept the dowry."
"Someone, bring in the dowry!
Xu Chengxiong called out, and immediately several boxes of jewelry were brought in.
Following that, Zhang Meijia took out a bank card and said, "There’s one hundred million in here, just a small token of respect. Please accept it!"
Xiao Yulan wanted to refuse, but saw Fang Ming readily accept it.
Fang Ming’s acceptance wasn’t about coveting that hundred million, but rather because the Xu Family showed such respect to the Fang Family; they couldn’t just snub their goodwill.
"Don’t just stand outside, come in, let’s talk inside!"
Fang Enze warmly welcomed Xu Chengxiong and Zhang Meijia among others into the grand hall of the Fang Family.
All the while enjoying pleasant conversation.
However, Xiao Yulan occasionally looked towards the entrance, wondering when Xiao Chen would arrive; she really had no interest in this matchmaking.
The Xu Family was essentially using money to pressure her, but even if the dowry was worth two to three hundred million, she wasn’t interested.
The last time people from Xiao Chen’s group gave her a dowry, it was over ten billion, so what were two or three hundred million?
"Don’t worry, the Family Head said he would come, and he will definitely arrive!"
Xiao Gang whispered to Xiao Yulan.
"Mhm!"
Xiao Yulan nodded and followed everyone into the hall.
Fang Enze said with a smile, "Since Xu Xian hasn’t arrived yet, why don’t the two of you discuss any other dissatisfaction you have, just bring it up!"
Xu Chengxiong thought for a moment and said, "Yu Lan is fine in all aspects, it’s just that her surname isn’t suitable; our Xu Family is set to marry into the Fang Family, but her surname is Xiao.
Perhaps, she should change her surname."
"No problem, changing a surname is not an issue at all, Yu Lan, wouldn’t you agree?"
Fang Ming asked, looking towards Xiao Yulan.
"I’m sorry, I can’t agree!"
Xiao Yulan shook her head and said, "Although I have taken a godfather, I am still a member of the Xiao Family, so how can I change my surname to Fang."
"Do you think your surname is so honorable?"
Fang Bingnan said with disdain, "Once you take the Fang surname, you become one of us, and when you go to your in-laws, it will be a credit to your face, understand?"
"Then why don’t you change your surname to Xu?"
Xiao Yulan retorted coldly.
She had endured everything else, but to actually ask her to change her surname, that was just too much.
"You!"
Fang Bingnan was so angry he puffed out his beard and glared, "Don’t be ungrateful, the Xu Family has given so many betrothal gifts, today you must change your surname, whether you like it or not!"
"So much? It’s just two or three hundred million at most, we really don’t care about it!"
Xiao Gang stepped forward and said.
He had seen big money before; how could he care about a mere two or three hundred million, "That amount of money isn’t even enough for Yu Lan’s pocket money!"
"Xiao Gang, shut up, who gave you the right to speak here?"
Fang Ming said angrily.
"What a joke, Yu Lan is my daughter, don’t I even have the right to speak now? I have not sold my daughter to your family.
Though we’ve accepted your kindness, I am not about to sell my daughter, at worst, we’ll just return the favor to the Fang Family!"
Xiao Gang said coldly.
He felt so free now.
In the past, even with money, he always lived in fear, overly cautious, as if he were inferior to everyone else.
But now it was different.
"Return the favor? Okay then, your parents have stayed at our Fang Family’s place this whole time, you at least owe us ten million, pay now, and if you can’t come up with it, then shut up!"
Fang Ming said coldly.
"Ten million? Haha, although you helped us, that ten million is just too excessive!"
Xiao Gang felt that the Fang Family was taking advantage of a crisis.
"Can’t come up with it? Then shut up!"
Fang Ming said disdainfully, "Today, do as we say, change the surname, and you might still receive the protection of our Fang Family; otherwise, don’t blame me for not warning you, without our Fang Family, you won’t be able to move an inch in Xiongcheng City."
"Fine, ten million then, ten million it is; after paying this ten million, from now on, we are completely done with the Fang Family, and nobody owes anyone anything,"
Xiao Gang said coldly, "Give me your account number!"
Fang Ming frowned, could it be that Xiao Gang actually had ten million?
Even though Xiao Yulan had been working well at March Group, she had only been there for two or three years and her annual salary was just one million.
How could she possibly have ten million!
"Bluffing and posturing!"
Fang Ming wanted to see Xiao Gang embarrass himself, so he gave Xiao Gang his account number.
"Let’s see where you’ll get this ten million from!"
However, right after he spoke, his phone received a message, his account had increased by ten million!
He was completely stunned!
The voice notification was heard by everyone present.
"Now that the money has been received, Yu Lan, let’s go."
Xiao Gang no longer wanted to stay here; since faces had been torn apart, there was no need for pretenses anymore.
