Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 326 Engagement

"Wake up, little brat."

Chen Pingjiang was half asleep in the morning when he felt the strong maternal love, the familiar recipe and the familiar taste.

After flipping over and washing up, Chen Pingjiang rushed to Yan Yan's house without even having time to eat breakfast.

Both families felt that a simple engagement ceremony would be better.

But the necessary rules cannot be omitted.

In Dongjiang, before getting engaged, the man and woman will buy each other a set of clothes from inside to outside.

Generally speaking, the woman will buy red underwear, suits, shirts, leather shoes, socks and belts for the man.

What a man buys for a woman is relatively casual.

It was already past ten in the morning when Chen Mingjiang arrived at Yan's house. As soon as he entered the door, he found that someone who shouldn't be here appeared.

"Why are you here?" Chen Pingjiang asked suspiciously.

The person sitting on the sofa and chatting with Yan Yan was actually Cong Nini.

When Cong Nini saw Chen Pingjiang, she smiled and blinked, and even licked her tongue deliberately.

Before she could speak, Yan Yan spoke first: "I asked her to come. We're going to buy clothes today. I don't know much about boys' clothes. Nini used to work in clothing sales, so I thought she should have more experience than me."

Suddenly Chen Pingjiang felt a headache.

The last time in the Hermès store, Chen Pingjiang and Cong Nini didn’t have a relationship yet, so he could still be relatively calm.

But now...

Chen Pingjiang coughed awkwardly and changed the subject: "When are we leaving?"

At this time, Yan Liming and Li Yuhua walked out of the bedroom, holding a bank card in their hands and handed it to Chen Pingjiang.

Li Yuhua said, "Pingjiang, there is 300,000 yuan in the card. It is the savings of your uncle Yan and I over the years. I will give it all to you. Buy a nice set of clothes."

When saying this, Li Yuhua was actually quite unconfident.

For a normal family, it is more than enough to buy a suit worth several thousand yuan for the man, and at most ten or twenty thousand yuan.

But when it came to Chen Pingjiang, Yan Liming and Li Yuhua were also unsure.

The two elders did a lot of homework in advance and asked many people. They heard that a set of clothes for top wealthy people might cost hundreds of thousands, and even the men's suits were hand-made.

They were afraid that the money they took was too little, which would make Chen Pingjiang feel dissatisfied. They didn't want Chen Pingjiang to think that they were looking down on him.

So the old couple discussed it and decided that since there was only so much money in the family, they might as well just give it all away.

It's because my daughter is marrying a special man, so I have to give her some face.

In fact, Yan Liming and Li Yuhua were not wrong.

The top wealthy men and young ladies at home and abroad can either get the latest haute couture from major famous brands, or even more exaggeratedly bring clothes directly to the homes of the wealthy for people to choose from.

However, these are not the most amazing ones.

Some wealthy people even send their own private jets to pick up their chief designers and tailors for tailor-made clothing. Nowadays, major famous brands have opened customized services that visit major cities around the world every year.

This custom-made style is one-of-a-kind, symbolizing the status and vision of the wealthy, and you will never have to worry about wearing the same clothes as others.

Chen Pingjiang naturally knew the value of this card. In 2011, it could hold 30 yuan, which was probably all the old couple's assets.

Without much hesitation, Chen Pingjiang took the card. This was the rule, and it would be bad if he didn't take it, but Chen Pingjiang didn't plan to spend all the money on the card.

Not to mention that he was from the Yan family before, even though Chen Pingjiang is so rich now, he is not quite used to that kind of aristocratic life.

Although he doesn’t buy all his clothes online, he doesn’t have every piece custom-made either. This has to do with his consumption concept.

After leaving Yan's house, the three of them got into the Maybach 57S together.

Chen Pingjiang sat in the front row, Cong Nini and Yan Yan were in the back row. Along the way, he listened to Cong Nini asking questions like a chatterbox, talking about cosmetics and clothes.

Although Yan Yan was not very interested in these, she was still quite cooperative and occasionally responded with a few words.

Chen Pingjiang was also quite curious about why Yan Yan didn't reject Cong Nini. Because with her cool personality, she could usually chat with other girls.

Cong Nini was like a young wife serving the eldest wife, with a senior schoolmate on her left and an older sister on her right.

Chen Pingjiang frowned when he heard it.

This girl is very cunning.

After arriving at Deji Plaza, Chen Pingjiang originally planned to accompany Guangguang. However, when he just got out of the car, he was recognized by a couple who were parking next to him without even wearing a mask.

"Chen... I am not seeing things."

Chen Pingjiang smiled helplessly and said hello.

It seems like I really can't go shopping here anymore. That's the downside of being a celebrity: you'll be recognized wherever you go.

Even someone like Wang Cong is often in the news, let alone Chen Pingjiang.

Seeing this, Yan Yan said, "Why don't you just walk around and don't go up. Nini and I will buy clothes for you. We have all sizes. If they don't fit, you can come and change them later."

"Well, I transferred two million to you, you can buy whatever you want." Chen Pingjiang nodded with an apologetic look.

After watching the two get off the car, Chen Pingjiang laughed at himself and said, "What's the point of buying clothes together?"

"Mr. Chen, where are we going now?" Li Fu asked.

Chen Pingjiang shook his head: "I don't know either."

I just came out of Zhongshan Villa, so there’s no need to go back now. There’s no need to go to the company today, Saturday. Where else can I go now?

"How about this, you help me take it to the bar."

It’s not a good idea to wait like this. Chen Pingjiang didn’t get enough rest last night, so he planned to take a nap first.

Haven't been to the bar for a while.

Zhao Shaoyang has withdrawn his shares from Tiangong Bar. It is said that it was his own strong request. Zhou Guanghan and Dai Sheng had no choice but to buy them back at a high price.

In Zhao Shaoyang's words, I will be stationed in Shanghai in the future, and I can only come back to Dongjiang occasionally. The bar will definitely not be able to take care of it, so I won't occupy the spot. Besides, Brother Chen left me some shares in the film and television company. Now I am in the entertainment industry, so I have to cut ties with the bar.

After arriving at the bar and saying hello to Zhou Guanghan and Dai Sheng, Chen Pingjiang went to the suite that belonged to him alone.

Even when he is not at home, someone will come to clean this suite once a day and it is never sold to the public.

I don’t know how long I slept, but Chen Pingjiang vaguely felt like someone was pressing on him.

He felt like he was in a dream, but he couldn't tell who the object was.

I just felt like I was tossing and turning in my dream, and I couldn't even tell whether it was a dream or reality.

So much so that Chen Pingjiang pushed up hard, and he was surprised by how real the feeling was.

Although I am sleeping, my brain is in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness until I realize I am dreaming.

I don’t know how long it was, but when Chen Pingjiang woke up, he was shocked to find someone lying next to him. He was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Why are you still hanging around? Aren't you accompanying Yan Yan to buy clothes?" Chen Pingjiang asked after pushing Cong Nini to wake her up.

Cong Nini yawned, looking lazy.

"One of Sister Yan Yan's colleagues, Cao Jie, I think, also came over later. I saw that she had someone to accompany her, so I said that I had my period and had a stomachache, and she asked me to go back and rest." Chen Pingjiang was speechless, "Then how did you know I was here?"

Cong Nini slowly regained her spirits at this time and laughed, "Where else can you go? I guessed you were here, and when I got here you were indeed here."

Chen Pingjiang suddenly looked strange, and recalled the erotic dream just now. "Did you do anything to me just now?"

"What do you mean?" Cong Nini couldn't help but smile with a smile on her face.

"Don't play dumb with me."

"Okay, dear." Cong Nini threw herself into Chen Pingjiang's arms, saying coquettishly, "I just wanted to tease you, but I didn't expect you to react so quickly. It was so big that I couldn't hold back."

Chen Pingjiang's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

I also wondered what kind of dream was so real, even the feeling was exactly the same.

Cong Nini continued in a coquettish voice: "I couldn't bear it after seeing you this morning. I haven't seen you for several months. And you're getting engaged tomorrow. You'll be someone else's husband in the future. Oh, oh, oh, oh. I'm afraid you won't want me anymore."

"Can you please speak nicely?" This girl's tricks are too deep.

"Okay, but I want more."

Chen Pingjiang: "You are sincere, right? You know I'm getting engaged tomorrow, so you deliberately suck me dry now?"

Cong Nini said as if it was a matter of course: "If I don't eat now, I will starve to death when the next time comes. I'm so pitiful, I just want you to accompany me more."

Before Chen Pingjiang could speak, Cong Nini lowered her head again...

…………

The engagement banquet was held at Liu Cheng's restaurant, and almost all the guests who came were close relatives from both families.

On the Chen family's side, no one from the old family who lived far away in Tongcheng came, but it wouldn't be too late to call them during the wedding. Among the relatives, only Zhou Guanghan came.

The situation at the Yan family is a little better.

Yan Yan's uncles, aunts, and grandmother came too. Yan Liming was from another place, so he didn't invite his relatives from his hometown.

In Liu Cheng's words, it was low-key and outrageous, which was totally inconsistent with the identities of both parties.

Today, Yan Yan was wearing a burgundy dress, light makeup, and a burgundy bow on her head.

When he saw her, Chen Pingjiang's first thought was, she is so beautiful.

This was the first time that the relatives from Yan Yan's parents' side had seen Chen Pingjiang, but they did not dare to come up and talk to him. They could only look at him from a distance, and the whole family seemed reserved.

Li Yuhua felt both angry and amused when watching this.

However, Yan Yan's cousins ​​seemed very excited when they saw Chen Pingjiang.

Among them, Yan Yan’s cousin is in his early thirties, is not married yet, and works in a state-owned enterprise.

Yan Yan's cousin is still studying at a university in Beijing. When asked why she chose to go to Beijing instead of attending so many schools in Dongjiang, she said that it was farther away from home and there would be less supervision.

Yan Yan's personality really doesn't match that of this cousin, and it seems like they don't interact with each other very often.

But my cousin kept surrounding Yan Yan, taking photos and group photos with her, and kept saying, "Sister, you are so beautiful, even prettier than a star."

With Yan Liming's introduction, Chen Pingjiang greeted the elders one by one.

Among them, Yan Yan's uncle was so nervous that he didn't know where to put his hands.

This is a person you usually only see on TV and in newspapers, but today I actually saw him alive.

"Yan Yan, this is for you, you must keep it well." The highlight is about to begin.

Xu Fangjuan handed a cowhide bag and a jewelry box to Yan Yan.

Encouraged by Yan Yan's cousin, she had to open it and take a look.

There's nothing in the jewelry box, just some hardware.

But it was the things in the cowhide bag that frightened people.

A large flat in the city center with a property area of ​​421 square meters!

A check for 8888 million!

The two together form a small goal.

Such a generous gift stunned the relatives present, and they couldn't help swallowing.

"This, Old Xu, is too valuable, really." Yan Liming and Li Yuhua were both shocked as they had no idea about it beforehand.

Xu Fangjuan waved her hand: "Rules cannot be ignored. This represents the sincerity of our family."

"Okay then." After pulling for a while, Li Yuhua nodded and carefully put it away.

People are so contradictory.

Generally speaking, the more gifts a family gives during a wedding, the more importance they place on the couple.

But for Chen Pingjiang's family, the money was too much and they felt it was too hot to handle. They felt uneasy and even a little scared.

"Liming, there are too few people today and it's not lively. What are the status of your two families? You are too sloppy and simple in handling the matter. After all, it's a big event for the children." During the meal, Yan Yan's uncle made a comment intentionally or unintentionally.

This immediately made Empress Dowager Xu look unhappy.

Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law Li Yuhua spoke first.

"Nowadays, engagements are just a meal. Who wants to make a big fuss? This isn't a village near Dongjiang, and it's not a wedding. Both sides' relatives are out of town, and it's hard for them and for us to call so many people back."

"Brother, you really are. You don't even think about our status in Pingjiang. Once the news gets out, the media may come, and the leaders of the city and the province will all come, as well as their colleagues from the company. By then, there will be more than a dozen tables that can't accommodate them. The engagement is so big, what about the marriage in the future? The happiness of their two children is enough, we don't care about anything else."

At this time, Yan Liming also coughed and said, "Brother-in-law, I was the one who brought up this matter. You see, neither of our families came over because we didn't want to have a grand ceremony. When people come, it would be wrong to accept gifts and it would be wrong not to accept them either."

When Yan Yan's uncle thought of the identity of his brother-in-law, he immediately curled his lips and stopped talking.

The eldest aunt also complained and glared at her husband: "Do you think we are still an ordinary family? Drink your wine, and even the food can't stop you from eating."

The uncle laughed apologetically, "That's not what I meant. I just thought there were not enough people and no one wanted to drink."

Chen Guangming stepped in at this time, "I'll just follow the kid's call, uncle, I'll have a few drinks with you."

Chen Pingjiang looked at his father with a smile. As expected, he hadn't changed at all. He was always the first to step forward when something happened.

He didn't take his uncle's words to heart, but when he heard his cell phone vibrate, he took it out and took a look.

The message was sent by Ge Mengshi.

It read: "Happy Engagement."

This made Chen Pingjiang smile bitterly.

I guess Ge Mengshi must be feeling very depressed at this moment.

It's only noon in China now, which means it's morning in Helsinki. The fact that the message was sent at such a precise time says it all.

Even though she often says she doesn't care, as a woman, it is impossible for her not to care.

only……

Oh, I hope I can find a way in the future. (End of this chapter)
