As for Jing Ke, because he had such an outstanding girlfriend like Jiujiu, he also forced himself to be outstanding. His technology company grew from a small business to a large scale now. In time, it would definitely occupy a place in the country.
After Jiujiu graduated from her master's degree, she was not young anymore. Moreover, she and Jing Ke had been together for so many years, so their relationship couldn't be more stable.
Moreover, the two of them were both in City B, so Father Qiao and Mother Qiao wanted them to get married.
Jiujiu and Jing Ke thought that it was the same whether they got married earlier or later, so they began to talk about marriage.
The two of them were now in City B, and if nothing unexpected happened, they would stay in City B in the future. Whether it was Jiujiu or Jing Ke, they both had houses in City B, so there was no need to buy a wedding house.
It could be said that Father Qiao and Mother Qiao had watched Jing Ke grow up, so they knew Jing Ke's character very well.
Thinking that Jing Ke's father had passed away early and his mother was the only one left in the family, Father Qiao and Mother Qiao didn't want to ask for a betrothal gift.
They only had one girl, Jiujiu, and their things would all belong to Jiujiu in the future. As long as Jing Ke was willing to be good to Jiujiu, it was fine. Therefore, it didn't matter whether they gave the betrothal gift or not.
However, it didn't mean that others would think so too.
At least, Mother Jing didn't think so.
Therefore, when the two families officially met for the first time, before Father Qiao and Mother Qiao said that they would let the betrothal gift go, Mother Jing directly said that there was no man in their family. It wasn't easy for her to raise Jing Ke and Jing Yue alone. Anyway, the two children had been together for so many years, and it was no different from marriage. So, why don't they just let the betrothal gift go?
It was one thing that Father Qiao and Mother Qiao didn't want to ask for a betrothal gift, but it was another thing that Mother Jing was unwilling to give it.
After all, if it wasn't because they were kind and didn't want to give it, it was because Mother Jing's attitude was wrong.
Father and Mother Qiao's expressions changed the moment they heard Mother Jing's words.
Jiujiu glanced sideways at Jiujiu. Jing Ke hurriedly held Jiujiu's hand under the table and shook his head slightly, telling Jiujiu that he didn't think so.
After Mother Jing finished speaking, Auntie Qiao, who originally didn't intend to ask for a betrothal gift, couldn't help but say, "Although that's the case, we've raised Nannan for so many years. It's not right if we don't give her anything at all. How about this? We won't say that we're giving her according to our current habits.
Her father and I only have one daughter, Nannan. In the future, we don't need any betrothal gifts and just let her bring it over. What do you think? "
Auntie Qiao's explanation was already very reasonable, but she couldn't withstand the other party's suspicion of a cautious person.
Mother Jing didn't speak, but Jing Yue did. "You're making it sound better than singing, but the betrothal gift isn't ten or twenty thousand yuan. It's a few hundred thousand yuan. Who can guarantee that you won't be tempted by the money and keep it?"
Auntie Qiao hadn't expected that Jing Yue would still say something like this even after she had already said so much. Her face turned green.
Jing Ke glared fiercely at Jing Yue as a warning.
But Jing Yue didn't seem to notice Jing Ke's glare and continued, "You said that you only have one daughter, Qiao Yinan. My family only has one son.
You said that you'll bring the betrothal gift back, but if you don't want to, we can't force you to do this.
Moreover, the divorce rate is so high now. How can we be at ease with so much money? "
Although the person speaking was Jing Yue, she definitely wouldn't have said these words if no one had taught her.
Obviously, the person who really wanted to say this was Mother Jing.
Father Qiao and Mother Qiao had really taken out their hearts to discuss their children's marriage. But they hadn't expected Jing Ke's mother to be such a person. Their faces instantly darkened.
Father Qiao and Mother Qiao were businessmen and they were very particular about making money amicably.
But in this situation, they couldn't be amicable at all.
Father Qiao stood up and said coldly, "Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Darling, let's go."
After Father Qiao finished speaking, Auntie Qiao and Jiujiu stood up and turned to leave.
Jing Ke hurriedly grabbed Jiujiu's arm and said, "Uncle Qiao, don't worry. They won't give me the betrothal gift money."
Before they came, he had already told Mother Jing and Jing Yue that they were just here to go through the motions. They just had to nod their heads and it would be fine.
He hadn't expected that the two of them would have such thoughts and even say such harsh words in front of Father Qiao.
After hearing Jing Ke's words, Father Qiao's expression softened.
Although he wasn't very satisfied with Mother Jing and Jing Yue, he was very satisfied with Jing Ke, his future son-in-law.
When they first met, he had a good impression of Jing Ke. After Jiujiu went to graduate school and Jing Ke started his company, he was worried that the two of them would grow distant from each other because of their busy lives. But Jing Ke used his actions to show him how he felt about Jiujiu.
No matter how busy he was, he would call Jiujiu every day to report his whereabouts. No matter where he went on business trips, he would bring gifts for Jiujiu every time he came back. He would also specially send local specialties to the old couple.
Before they came this time, Jing Ke told them directly that he was going to transfer 40% of his company's shares to Jiujiu.
Because the procedures for transferring shares were more complicated, Jing Ke only told Father Qiao. Even Jiujiu didn't know about it.
After Jing Ke was willing to transfer his shares, Father Qiao was even more satisfied with Jing Ke.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, Jing Ke's company was just a small company, Father Qiao knew that Jing Ke's company had a bright future and would develop very well in the future. As long as there were no accidents, it would definitely occupy a place in the technology industry in the future.
Jing Yue saw that Jing Ke was able to ease the situation with just a few words and wanted to add fuel to the fire. But as soon as she opened her mouth, Jing Ke glared at her.
Jing Ke's eyes were as fierce as a wild wolf's and a strong murderous intent enveloped Jing Yue. Jing Yue felt that her tongue was stiff and she couldn't say a word.
Even if Mother Jing and Jing Yue made trouble, Jiujiu and Jing Ke's marriage was settled just like that.
Moreover, because of Mother Jing and Jing Yue's interference, Jing Ke sped up the transfer of shares. Before the two of them registered their marriage, Jiujiu officially became a major shareholder of Jing Yue's company.
After registering their marriage, Jing Ke, who usually didn't post much on his WeChat Moments, posted something on his WeChat Moments for the first time.
It was a very simple and honest post.
I'm married.
Below it was a picture of nine squares.
Except for the marriage certificate in the middle, Jiujiu had never seen the other eight photos before.
The first one was when she performed on stage at the orientation party. The second one was after they got together, and so on.
And the last one was the photo on their marriage certificate.
