Chapter 339 Can the Engagement Continue?
Otherwise, Xiao Chen might be made things difficult by the Cheng family every day, and it would be impossible for him to be as carefree as he is now.
"Second Uncle..." Xiao Chen called out these two words, feeling a little sore in his heart, saying that he didn't care about the identity of the Xiao family, that was to comfort himself, even though he was already a sixth-level cultivator in the Qi refining period, possessing and seventh-level With a strength comparable to that of an inner strength warrior, Xiao Chen still feels that he is a member of the Xiao family.
"Xiao Chen, I know, you may hate Second Uncle in your heart, you may not understand, and you may be reluctant to call out the word Second Uncle, but Second Uncle actually has a last resort!" Xiao Hai sighed , said: "Today, I asked Brother Cheng to come to invite you, just to clarify this with you! You may not have understood at the beginning, why my brother's wrong rumors were implicated in you, not your grandfather, nor implicated When it came to your second uncle and me, Xiao Xiao was not implicated, but you were just driven out of Xiao's house, why?"
"Father's debt is paid by son, I understand." Xiao Chen grinned: "Second uncle, I am not unwilling, in fact, as long as I know that you didn't drive me out in cold blood on purpose, I will be satisfied. At the beginning, Tang Tang was much stronger, and he was kicked out when it was useless, and he was found back when it was useful!"
"Your Uncle Cheng is also here today. In fact, he knows all about it. At the beginning, I asked him to help take care of you, so you went to Mengying's side and became her servant. This is not an insult to you, but Protect you in a disguised form, otherwise, the Cheng family will not feel angry, and your life will be very difficult." Xiao Hai continued: "At the beginning, I didn't ask you to explain this clearly, in fact, I was afraid that you would not be calm at the beginning, but after this After a period of observation, I think you have regained your composure and should be able to understand our previous difficulties."
"Of course I understand." Xiao Chen said with a smile: "Actually, I already figured it out the day Uncle Cheng came to me. If you don't believe me, you can ask Uncle Cheng."
Xiao Hai looked at Cheng Zhongming in surprise, but he was a little surprised when he saw Cheng Zhongming nodded! Cheng Zhongming didn't say anything about this before, but now it seems that Xiao Chen has always known about it.
"Xiao Chen, our Xiao family has now received the help of the Sun family, and now we are gradually turning things around. When our Xiao family is in full swing again, it will be the time for you to return to the Xiao family!" Xiao Hai walked over and patted He patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder and said: "God blesses the Xiao family. The Sun family, who was supposed to be in power, suddenly died so many people. This gave us a great opportunity for the Xiao family!"
"Well, I believe the Xiao family will definitely get better." Xiao Chen thought to himself, this Sun family...is it really so kind? This family is a bit shameless... But it's okay, if you dare to bully the Xiao family, at worst, let the white fox send your whole family to the wind.
"But at this stage, I still have to wrong you for a while." Xiao Hai said, "But with your Uncle Cheng taking care of you, there shouldn't be any problem! Your Uncle Cheng has also agreed, and will try to delay Mengying's marriage contract as much as possible. When you return to the Xiao family, your engagement will still count!"
"Ah?" Xiao Chen was taken aback for a moment! For myself...and Missy, there is still a possible day? But... what about Goddess Shen?
"Hmph, who is going to marry him, I don't want to have a boyfriend now." Cheng Mengying said with a slightly red face.
"Hehe, it just so happens that Cao Yu made a big fool of himself, and now it's not easy to marry the Cheng family." Cheng Zhongming said, "I don't know why Cao Yuliang went crazy that day."
Cheng Mengying glanced at Xiao Chen, blushing a little.
Now Xiao Chen finally knew why the eldest lady said those things in the car, probably because Cheng Zhongming had talked to her in advance, so the eldest lady was considered to be with him, so it was logical to cheat Lou Zhenming with himself.
But, in the future, do I really want to resume my engagement with the eldest lady? However, if the young lady is asked to marry someone else, Xiao Chen is definitely not happy in his heart, this kind of possessiveness is very strange.
"Xiao Chen, but there is another piece of bad news, which may affect the marriage contract between you and Cheng Mengying." Having said that, Xiao Hai paused for a moment, and continued: "The marriage contract between the Cheng family and the Xiao family , must be put on the agenda, of course I'm talking about Cheng Mengqiang and Xiao Xiao's matter! Today, this matter was discussed at the Cheng family's family meeting, and Cheng Zhongfan plans to bring Cheng Mengqiang to Xiao's family to propose marriage in a few days!"
"Oh?" Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback! Really? Then Qi Zhigao, is there no hope?
"The Cheng family will offer a lot of conditions, but what your grandfather insisted on is to let you return to the Xiao family. On this point, it has formed a conflict with the conditions of the Cheng family, so the two sides refuse to give in, and this matter is temporarily put on hold. It came down, but your Uncle Cheng said that it seems that the Cheng family is not so resolute this time, and that Mr. Cheng didn't say anything, we will know in a few days." Xiao Hai continued.
"It doesn't really matter if I go back or not. The important thing is that Xiao Xiao doesn't like Cheng Mengqiang!" Xiao Chen said, "I think Qi Zhigao is pretty good!"
"Qi Zhigao... I asked Xiao Xiao, and Xiao Xiao didn't hate him. If she had to choose between the two, she would choose Qi Zhigao." Xiao Hai shook his head: "I Ask her who she likes, and she won't say anything. Of course, your grandfather may not pay attention to her opinion! You are the foundation of the Xiao family. If you can return to the Xiao family, the Xiao family will prosper in the future. There are no successors, and if you don't come back, the Xiao family will cease to exist after a certain period of time."
"Second Uncle, please persuade Grandpa, I'm really fine! It doesn't matter if you go back or not." Xiao Chen still has plans in his heart, the decline of the Xiao family is only temporary, and once one day, he won't use his identity as a white fox However, when he can disdain Songning only by relying on the strength of the white fox, all the resources behind him will be poured into the Xiao family. At that time, the first family of Songning will be the Xiao family.
"Alright, since you insist, I'll talk about it!" Xiao Hai nodded: "When the Xiao family regains its glory, even if Cheng Mengqiang and Xiao Xiao are together, it won't affect the matter between you and Cheng Mengying. Only by joining forces will the two companies cooperate more closely.”
"Well, let's not talk about this, I'm hungry, let's eat something!" Xiao Chen didn't want to talk too much on this topic, he really didn't care about it.
The knot in his heart has been untied, and it is enough to know that the Xiao family has not abandoned him. It doesn't matter whether he returns in name or not! Now if you want to go back, even if you go back as a white fox in full view, no one would dare to say no, but Xiao Chen thinks it is unnecessary.
What Cheng Zhongming and Xiao Hai didn't expect was that Cheng Zhongfan brought Cheng Mengqiang to Xiao's house together with Mr. Cheng! This time, even Mr. Cheng also went, which is enough to show that the Cheng family attaches great importance to marriage!
Cheng Zhongfan deliberately chooses a time when Cheng Zhongming is not at home to do these things. If Cheng Zhongming is there, he will always find some reasons to object. Now that Cheng Zhongming is not here, it is convenient to finalize the matter.
Cheng Zhongfan actually knew in his heart that Cheng Zhongming and Xiao Feng had a very good relationship back then, so Cheng Zhongming definitely didn't want Cheng Mengying and Xiao Chen to divorce, and if Cheng Mengqiang married Xiao Xiao, unless the Xiao family was as powerful as before, it would be impossible for them to marry each other twice in a row. Marriage, that's not realistic.
So Cheng Zhongming has always been a little bit against Cheng Mengqiang and Xiao Xiao's affairs, and this time he will not be taken with him at all.
Xiao Yuanshan was a little surprised that so many people came from the Cheng family with great fanfare. Seeing Mr. Cheng, he immediately stood up to greet him: "Master Cheng, have you figured it out? Are you planning to let Xiao Chen return to the Xiao family?"
After Cheng Mengying's banquet, the Cheng family began to contact the Xiao family frequently, but the conditions of the two families were inconsistent, so they put it on hold for the time being. But today, it seems that the Cheng family is planning to compromise and conduct final negotiations? Otherwise, what would Mr. Cheng do here in person?
"Hehe, brother Xiao, you are still in such a hurry!" Mr. Cheng smiled and said, "But you are right, we do intend to agree to this condition when we come here this time, but do your Xiao family also want to make a statement? When will Xiao Xiao marry into the Cheng family?"
This condition stuck here. At first the Cheng family didn't want to compromise, but the Xiao family didn't want to compromise even more, so they froze, but Cheng Mengqiang thought about it, anyway, Xiao Chen's temporary return would not affect his death, he would die sooner or later, What's the harm in agreeing to him first? It's just a name! However, there must be a limited condition. Xiao Chen cannot be allowed to return so quickly. After all, Xiao Chen has returned to the Xiao family, and with the protection of the Xiao family, it will be even more difficult to kill him!
So this time, I came here to limit the conditions!
"What does it have to do with this?" Xiao Yuanshan couldn't help asking.
"It's a big deal!" Mr. Cheng said: "For the sake of fairness, I'm afraid that your Xiao family will go back on their word. When Xiao Xiao married into the Cheng family, it was the day of Xiao Chen's return. How about it? But our two families have decided on the marriage first, and these can be written In the engagement document, to prevent both of us from going back on our word in the future!"
"Oh?" Xiao Yuanshan frowned. Logically speaking, what Mr. Cheng said had some truth, but the main reason was whether it was too long? Xiao Xiao is only in middle school now, and when she can marry into the Cheng family, she must be at least eighteen years old, right? Then there are still several years. Could there be any changes in the middle?
"Yes." Before Xiao Yuanshan could speak, Xiao Xiao came out of the room, looked at Cheng Mengqiang and said, "But it needs to be written clearly. If the reason of your Cheng family leads to divorce or other circumstances, this agreement still remains. Take effect!"
Xiao Yuanshan nodded involuntarily, yes, there is a precedent for the Cheng family to divorce, if the Cheng family divorced again and refused to acknowledge the return of Xiao Chen as mentioned before, wouldn't it be a waste of work?
