When Mr. and Mrs. Shen heard this, they did not expect Chen Yucheng to be so generous.
Mrs. Shen cheered up and said, "Will your family agree to it if you don't sign it?"
Chen Yucheng said, "My money is my money. My family gave me a trust fund before I came of age. All my assets are deposited in the bank in the form of a trust fund, so my family can't interfere with my affairs. They don't need to interfere with my own business either."
Mrs. Shen had thought that since these rich and powerful families were all young masters and their money was in the hands of their parents, it would not be good for Shen Youran to marry into their family and have to submit to their in-laws.
Hearing this, Mrs. Shen was relieved.
Mr. Shen didn't care about this. The money belonged to them anyway, and they didn't want to get married for their money. They just wanted to see the other party's attitude based on the money.
Mr. Shen said, "How about this? Let's go with the tradition. Now that you are engaged, we'll listen to your family about the wedding. We'll just cooperate."
Mrs. Shen saw that he made it sound so easy. If they were to humble themselves like that, wouldn't their family look down on them even more? They might even think that they were eager to marry their child into the Chen family.
So Mrs. Shen added, "But we can't skip on the monetary gift."
Chen Yucheng said, "You can decide on the monetary gift. We'll just listen to the elders."
Mrs. Shen looked at him and said tentatively, "Then … how about five hundred thousand?"
Chen Yucheng agreed immediately.
"Okay, five hundred thousand."
Shen Youran objected immediately. She shouted, "Mom, how can it be five hundred thousand? I think it's only a hundred thousand at most."
Mrs. Shen didn't expect Chen Yucheng to agree so readily. She was still feeling happy, but her daughter was already siding with an outsider.
She glared at Shen Youran and wanted to say that this girl was too stupid. Sooner or later, Chen Yucheng would be able to control her.
But she could only glare at her and say, "Youran, their family is so rich. If you don't keep some money for yourself, how do you know that they won't bully you in the future? We won't ask for the money. We'll still keep it for your dowry."
Shen Youran said, "No matter how rich their family is, it has nothing to do with me. However much money they want is how much we want. It's only because of traditional etiquette. Otherwise, it wouldn't matter even if I didn't want a single cent."
Chen Yucheng looked at her and said, "It's okay, Youran. My money is your money, and your money is my money. We don't have to separate you from me. If you take it, I take it. Isn't it just transferring the husband's money to the wife's card? It's not a big deal."
Shen Youran's heart softened when she heard this.
Mother Shen looked at Chen Yucheng and listened to his words. She couldn't help but feel moved. She had originally thought that Chen Yucheng was unreliable, but now she felt that Youran was too lucky.
There was actually such a good man in the world who was so generous to his wife.
What else could she say? She immediately agreed.
After leaving the house, Shen Youran looked at Chen Yucheng and said, "My mom and the others are too much. How can you agree to this? Are you stupid?"
Chen Yucheng held her hand and said, "They're the stupid ones. They sold you to me so cheaply. When the time comes, your money will be mine. I'm willing to pay any amount of money, let alone five hundred thousand. It'll come back to me anyway."
When Shen Youran heard this, she laughed and hit him on the chest. The two of them left the Shen family together to prepare for their departure.

Lin Che returned to the company first and applied for a few days' leave from Hollywood, but they didn't say anything. It was said that Li Mingyu's people went to apply for leave that day, and they were so scared that they didn't dare to respond.
Everything in the company was as usual. When Lin Che arrived at the company, he had to settle the matters after he went to recuperate. Because he hadn't reported that he was pregnant to anyone, he needed an excuse to go out.
She was going to recuperate after she finished filming the Hollywood movie.
When that time came, she would directly announce to the public that she was studying abroad and would return after she gave birth to the child.
Ah Bi said to Lin Che, "I'm still very reluctant for you to leave. I might go over to see you from time to time. Don't think I'm annoying."
Lin Che pinched Ah Bi's cheek. "How could that be? But are you going to stay here and not go back to your father's place?"
Ah Bi smiled as she looked at the company. "I think it's much more fun here than in America. Also, I like it here very much."
Lin Che narrowed his eyes and looked at Ah Bi. With a sly look on his face, he said, "Do you like it here, or … do you like the people here?"
A blush flashed across Ah Bi's face, and she quickly said, "I … I don't!"
Lin Che deliberately twisted the topic and said directly, "I mean, you like the staff here, Min Min, me, and the other people in this company."
Ah Bi knew that she had been teased. She twisted her butt and bumped into him. "You're a mother, yet you're still talking nonsense!"
After bumping into her, she remembered that she still had one in her stomach.
"Aiya, sorry, sorry. I forgot that you're pregnant. I even bumped into you," Ah Bi said quickly.
Lin Che said indifferently, "I'm not that delicate. I can't even touch you."
Ah Bi said, "Sister Yu said that your child is very precious from birth. Of course I have to be careful. I don't want to be chased by Gu Jingze."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked. When they saw Xue Yang walking over, he smiled and said, "Sister Che, I heard. Congratulations."
Lin Che was stunned. Then, he saw Ah Bi sticking out her tongue and knew that it was Ah Bi who said it.
She patted Ah Bi on the head, but didn't say anything. She smiled and said generously, "Thank you. I'm going to leave here soon to go to Los Angeles to film. I can't watch you, but you have to work hard."
Xue Yang nodded at her seriously. "I'll definitely work hard."
Lin Che smiled and left. Xue Yang looked at him and asked Ah Bi, "Is Sister Che going to be away for a long time?"
"Yeah, she's going abroad to raise the baby."
Xue Yang took a deep breath and looked at Ah Bi. "Aren't you going back?"
He knew that Ah Bi had followed Lin Che to Country C. Otherwise, why would a missy like her come here?
Ah Bi said, "I'm not going back. Why would I go back?"
Xue Yang looked at her. "You're going to stay here?"
Ah Bi smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I'm going to stay here and continue learning with Sister Yu."
Xue Yang didn't expect that Ah Bi would stay.
He looked at Ah Bi and realized that he actually didn't want her to leave.
Although they hadn't known each other for long, he still liked spending time with her.
Xue Yang carried his backpack. "Alright then. If you stay, I'll treat you to a meal. Let's go."
