Shen Qian's birthday was celebrated in a very low-key manner.
With a father like Du Anmin around, things that ordinary people could do without restraint were somewhat taboo for the Du family.
…
After the meal, the cake was cut.
At this time, the birthday was considered to have passed.
Just when Shen Qian thought that her birthday was over, a voice suddenly rang out.
Li Dong, who was at the side, suddenly said in a daze, "Don't you close your eyes and make a wish?"
There were not many people who came to celebrate Shen Qian's birthday today. Other than Du Anmin and his wife, as well as Li Dong, only Shen Hang and a few juniors of the Shen family came together.
Hearing Li Dong's doubt, Shen Hang said speechlessly, "Brother-in-law, you just dozed off. You finished making a wish."
"I didn't see it!"
Li Dong's face was blank. Then he looked at Shen Qian and said, "You do it again."
Shen Qian was angry and amused at the same time. She said helplessly, "What do you want to do again?"
"Let's do it again. I was a little nervous just now and my mind wandered."
When Li Dong said this, Shen Qian couldn't help but look at him strangely. You're nervous?
Although she didn't know what he wanted to do, Shen Qian still closed her eyes.
At this time, a few soft cries came into Shen Qian's ears.
When she opened her eyes, she found that Li Dong was actually kneeling on one knee, holding a diamond ring in his hand, looking at her affectionately.
At this time, Shen Qian's first thought was not to be touched, but to ask subconsciously, "Are you okay?"
Li Dong laughed and said, "What can happen to me? I thought hard for a long time before I realized that we seem to have forgotten something. My parents are coming to discuss the wedding date, but I actually didn't propose to you. It really shouldn't have. Today just happens to be your birthday, and I just happened to get Gome. If you agree to my proposal at this time, it will be perfect! "
When his words came out, Shen Hang and the others cried out in surprise again.
It was not until then that they realized that it was time for Shen Qian and Li Dong to talk about marriage.
Shen Hang said in a daze, "Sis, are you really getting married?"
Shen Qian smiled and said, "Yes, soon."
"This …"
Shen Hang was stunned. Li Dong choosing to get married at this time was somewhat out of his expectations.
If he were in Li Dong's shoes, would he be in a hurry to get married in his early twenties?
He was a little surprised when Li Dong proposed to him just now.
However, a marriage proposal was a marriage proposal, not an immediate marriage.
But now, according to what Li Dong said, the wedding date is coming soon. This is too surprising.
While the siblings were chatting, Li Dong said with a speechless expression, "Hey, can you not ignore me? Qianqian, I'm proposing to you. Can you give me some face? "
Shen Qian laughed in spite of herself. She took his diamond ring and said with a smile, "Get up. Looking at your conflicted look, I feel bad for you. I agree, okay? "
"That's more like it."
Li Dong got up with satisfaction, took the diamond ring, and put it on Shen Qian's ring finger.
Seeing the two completed the proposal in a flash, everyone was a little dumbfounded.
Shen Hang could not help but say, "Sis, don't be reserved?"
As soon as this was said, Li Dong and Shen Qian glared at him at the same time.
Shen Qian snorted and said, "I'm already in my early thirties. If I don't find someone to marry, will you support me?"
Shen Hang looked embarrassed. Before he could speak, Li Dong threatened, "Just be an onlooker. If you talk nonsense again, I'll deal with you later!"
Shen Hang wanted to cry but had no tears. Why should I interrupt!
These two were obviously in the throes of adultery and couldn't wait to get it done.
But before he could understand what was going on, he was ridiculed by both of them.
Sighing, Shen Hang did not interrupt. 'Do whatever you want.'
Shen Qian and Li Dong ignored him. Shen Qian stared at her finger and frowned. "It's too big. Where did you buy it?"
"Is it big?"
Li Dong looked at it and thought for a moment. "It seems a little. Should we cut it and make it smaller?"
The two talked as if there was no one else around, but everyone else's eyes widened.
On the Shen family's side, one of Shen Qian's cousins looked at it for a while and suddenly asked in confusion, "Sis Qian, Sis … Brother-in-law, is this the Wittelsbach that was auctioned in London last month?"
“Wittelsbach？ A blue Wittelsbach bus? The most expensive diamond in the world at auction? "
As the children of the upper class, these people often paid attention to these things.
No one mentioned it because no one had thought of it.
But when someone mentioned it, someone immediately exclaimed, "It's true! I've seen the auction catalog. It's exactly the same except for the addition of a ring!"
"Brother-in-law bought it! I'm so jealous of you!"
The women of the Shen family couldn't keep calm anymore. Their eyes almost popped out.
Shen Qian, on the other hand, was a little confused. She had been too busy recently to pay attention to these things.
Seeing them exclaim in surprise, Shen Qian looked at the diamond ring on her hand. The diamond was very big. She couldn't help but ask, "Is this diamond ring very famous?"
The cousin who had recognized the ring quickly said, "Wittelsbach is the engagement dowry of the daughter of King Philip IV of Spain and Emperor Leopold I of the Holy Roman Empire.
It was auctioned in London in the middle of last month.
At that time, it was sold for nearly 25 million US dollars, breaking the world record for a diamond.
Many people were curious about who had bought it.
There are many mysterious buyers like this. We thought it would be decades before the next appearance.
I didn't expect it to be an engagement gift that Brother-in-law prepared for you! "
"25 million US dollars!"
Shen Hang, who was standing by the side, felt his teeth aching. Li Dong was really willing to spend money to woo girls.
Just from his tone, he could cut it off if it's too big, and make it smaller.
No matter how he thought about it, Li Dong's words sounded very pretentious. However, when he thought about it, Shen Hang felt helpless. Li Dong really did have the capital.
The acquisition of Gome probably cost at least 40 billion RMB. Compared to that, 25 million US dollars was nothing.
…
Shen Hang and the rest were filled with envy and jealousy.
Du Anmin and Shen Xuehua, who had just come downstairs, couldn't help but be stunned.
Looking at each other, Old Du asked doubtfully, "25 million US dollars?"
25 million US dollars was close to 200 million RMB!
How could money come so easily these days?
Old Du felt a little tired. Even if the other party did it to win his daughter's heart, Old Du couldn't help but grumble, "You're still young. Enjoyment is secondary!"
Shen Xuehua tugged at him. Seeing that the others didn't care, she whispered, "Let's go. Young people are making a fuss, and we won't join in the fun."
"No, I have to talk to Li Dong …"
Shen Xuehua pinched him. What's there to talk about? I bought it for your daughter, not you.
Regardless of whether Old Du was willing or not, Shen Xuehua dragged him upstairs.
…
The old couple left, and no one noticed.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Qian's ring.
Hearing their explanation, Shen Qian smiled and didn't say anything. She still had to save some face for Li Dong in front of others.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the guests, he sent them off after a while.
When everyone was gone, Shen Qian pulled Li Dong and frowned. "Where did you get the money? Didn't you hand over all your money? Also, you didn't use the company's funds. Are you sick to buy a diamond ring for one or two hundred million? "
Li Dong said gloomily, "Who's sick? I bought it for my wife. Why can't I? I'm Hua Xia's richest man. What's wrong with buying a ring? All these years, I haven't given you any gifts. It's not easy for me to get it, so I asked someone to buy it. It's just in time for us to get married. Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of it. But just when we were about to get married, this diamond appeared. Obviously, it was prepared for me. "
Shen Qian glanced at him and said after a while, "Seems like you have a private stash. Forget it, I'll take it since you bought it. Don't buy this kind of thing again, especially when it's so expensive. It's completely hyped up. "
Li Dong sighed. "There's no such thing as a private stash. I'm really eating steamed buns now. I can't even afford steamed buns anymore. If I don't buy you a ring, I'm thinking that if I don't have any food to eat, I can make a living with you. You won't be able to chase me away, right? "
Shen Qian rolled her eyes at him. This guy was really good at making jokes.
Seeing that her parents had gone upstairs, Shen Qian and Li Dong chatted for a long time downstairs.
It was almost 12 o 'clock when Li Dong reluctantly left.
…
The next day, on the 9th of January, Li Dong began to return to Pingchuan.
Not long after Li Dong left, a piece of news spread in the circle.
The devil might be getting married!
The reason why it was said to be possible was because the Shen family's disciple who leaked the news remembered how scary Li Dong was and hurriedly shut up.
But even so, everyone knew a lot of news.
The Great Demon King was probably going to get married.
And it was said that he was going to spend a lot of money. The blue Vitus diamond that broke the world's diamond auction record was made into a diamond ring by the devil and given to his fiancée.
As for who Li Dong was going to marry, some people in the circle could roughly guess.
Only the people in the outside world were completely unaware.
But Shen Qian's identity couldn't be revealed. After all, it was related to Du Anmin.
So when some gossip spread, the whole of Hua Xia was in an uproar.
From the end of 2008 to the beginning of 2009, it was no problem to say that it was Li Dong's one-man show.
Li Dong acquired Gome and officially dominated the domestic retail industry.
Coupled with the 300 billion in revenue that was previously reported, it could be said that the current Li Dong had countless fans.
He was young, rich, and famous. It could be said that Li Dong was the male god in the eyes of many women and the object of their fantasies.
Many people even had the dream of marrying into a rich family. It was not impossible for them to be the wife of the richest man.
But now, suddenly, there was news that Li Dong was getting married. It immediately shattered many people's dreams.
On this day, there was a lot of criticism on the Internet.
On this day, the discussion about who Li Dong's fiancée was also refreshed over and over again.
There were many candidates on the list. Some popular artists, some unmarried women who had contact with Li Dong, were almost all on the list.
Shen Qian was no exception. But at this time, there were not many people who guessed that it was Shen Qian.
Other than the people in the industry who knew about Shen Qian, many people in the outside world did not know who she was.
In this heated discussion, Li Dong arrived at Pingchuan.
