Bai Ziwen's words were basically a declaration. When Shang Jingtian heard this, he raised his head slightly and looked at Bai Wushuang with a Smile. His eyes were filled with encouragement.
As for the Yan Family, they all had their own plans and thoughts. Yen Teng-kuei and his son naturally hoped that this would happen. They did not care how strong the Yan Family would become in the future. Anyway, Yen Teng-kuei was already disabled. No matter how strong the family was, he could only be looked down upon. There was no future to speak of. On the other hand, ever since Yan Jiaji offended Xiao Zheng, his future was bleak. There was no hope.
The only thing they wanted to see was for Shang Yao to be usurped. And then raise their family's status. After all, this was what Shang Jingtian had personally promised.
As for Yan Hong, it was the exact opposite.
Although Xiao Zheng expected that this meal would not be too smooth, he still felt that it would not be a smooth meal. He did not expect that there would be a turn of events so quickly. And from the looks of it, the Bai Family was preparing a big move. It was not an ordinary formality, but to establish the attitudes of both sides.
As soon as Bai Ziwen finished speaking, everyone looked at the two with a strange expression. Shang Yao also put down her bowl and chopsticks, a strange look in her eyes.
All she could hope for was to get through this dinner. Even if she could not get through, she did not want to make the situation too awkward. That would not only offend her father, but it would also be hard for her to establish a foothold in the family.
But looking at Bai Wushuang's relaxed expression, Shang Yao's heart gradually sank. Her mind was in a mess.
Bai Wushuang stood up, then carefully took out a small exquisite box from his chest. He slowly left his seat, then walked in front of Shang Yao with a solemn expression.
Then, he actually knelt down on one knee and looked at Shang Yao with a sincere gaze.
"Yao Yao. There are some words that I have always buried in my heart. From the first time we met, I wanted to tell you. But at that time, the time was not right. I did not dare to speak my mind. " Bai Wushuang slowly opened the exquisite box, revealing an incomparably large diamond ring. According to Xiao Zheng's sharp eyes, this was an extremely famous and valuable diamond ring. It was worth more than ten million!
This Bai Wushuang had really put in a lot of effort for tonight.
Shang Yao watched as Bai Wushuang took out the diamond ring that symbolized a proposal. His heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously wanted to look at Xiao Zheng. But she knew that if she did that, it would definitely arouse the disgust of everyone present, and it might even implicate Xiao Zheng.
He couldn't help but suppress the urge to turn his head, but his throat was a little dry. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
"Yao Yao. We have also reached the age to talk about marriage. "Bai Wushuang said emotionally. "If in your heart, I'm still a decent man. Then please accept my friendship for you. In the future, I will work hard to make myself better and better, and become the most ideal partner in your heart. I will accompany you till the end of our lives. "
Bai Wushuang's words were extremely emotional, and even his pair of gloomy eyes gradually became red. His acting skills were definitely top-notch. Who knew how many times she had rehearsed in front of the mirror at home? Xiao Zheng couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
A movie king-level performance.
After Bai Wushuang's performance, it was Shang Yao's turn to express her position.
It had to be said that not only Shang Yao was caught unprepared. Even Xiao Zheng was secretly anxious for Shang Yao. This big move of Bai Wushuang was quite powerful. He must have gotten Shang Jingtian's permission, so he went straight to the point. He didn't give Shang Yao a chance to refuse.
If he didn't make it clear, Shang Yao's attitude would definitely be ambiguous, and she wouldn't give a clear position. But right now, Shang Yao only had the choice of accepting the diamond ring or not. There was no third way.
So — — would Shang Yao accept it?
Even Xiao Zheng was in a dilemma.
He really wanted to help Shang Yao, at least not make things too difficult for her. But in this situation, if he said one more word, he might be hated by everyone present. And it would be useless.
It seemed that Shang Yao could only rely on herself to get through this obstacle …
In any case, Xiao Zheng had shown his face. The meal had been eaten and the wine had been drunk. It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but that there was no room for him to perform.
After Shang Yao was stunned for a few seconds, Shang Jingtian said indifferently, "Yao Yao, what do you think?"
His tone was very calm, but it revealed an unquestionable majesty.
This time, not only did he have the upper hand in the contest between him and his daughter, he would also take away the benefits that his daughter had fished in troubled waters.
Speaking of which, it wasn't that Shang Jingtian didn't want his daughter to be outstanding. It was that he couldn't tolerate his daughter not listening to his commands. When he pointed to the east, his daughter would go to the west. She was simply singing a different tune from him. This was hard for Shang Jingtian to accept.
Moreover, from the beginning, Shang Jingtian had used Shang Yao to forcibly occupy the Yan family's resources and consolidate his position in the business world. He wanted to have the capital to compete with Lin Laoyao earlier. But Shang Yao's unwillingness to cooperate put him in a very passive situation. He had no choice but to ask Bai Ziwen for help, taking many detours to save the country.
This time, he didn't believe that his daughter would dare to go against the will of the two families. Even Yan Shichang expressed that he would support the marriage. His daughter was already at the end of her rope.
Shang Yao came back to her senses, her face showing a half-embarrassed, half-struggling expression. Very rich. It was also hard to fathom.
Embarrassed, it meant that she was embarrassed and uneasy.
Struggling, it also showed Shang Yao's inner contradiction and uneasiness.
What was she thinking?
Everyone present was thinking. Including Xiao Zheng.
"Xiao Bai, you're very good," Shang Yao said.
And she simply and crudely gave him the good guy card. Everyone's heart sank.
What did this mean? Was she going to start to object?
Bai Wushuang, who was kneeling on one knee, felt his palms sweating.
He was only the executor of the whole thing, while his father and Shang Jingtian were the masterminds behind the scenes. Although he didn't have a good impression of Shang Yao. However, he also knew that whether it was for himself or for his family, he had to marry this woman.
Therefore, he calmly accepted his father's arrangement.
However, if he failed, he would lose all his face!
"Actually, I know that you've been doing well all these years. Shang Yao let out a soft sigh, a hint of regret on her face.
"If you were two years earlier, or even a year ago …" Shang Yao shook her head and said in a low voice. "I will marry you without hesitation."
"Why?" Bai Wushuang's face was deathly pale, he could no longer kneel down.
He slowly stood up with a cold look in his eyes.
"Watch your attitude," Bai Ziwen said unhappily.
Bai Ziwen had not really reached the point of failure yet. He had to urge his son, or else there would really be no more chances.
"Yes. Father … "Bai Wushuang said in a low voice.
Then, everyone continued to look at Shang Yao.
Shang Yao, on the other hand, was looking at Xiao Zheng with a conflicted expression.
This action of hers made everyone's heart twitch. Even Xiao Zheng himself couldn't sit still anymore.
You don't plan to let me go at all?
But, how do you plan to drag me down with you?
"A year ago. Because I was in a bad mood, I drank two more cups, "Shang Yao used a very serious tone to narrate a very vulgar story. "Boss Xiao kindly sent me to the hotel. But then … "
Xiao Zheng secretly cursed: You little bitch, you're too black-hearted!
