Ye Tianchen announced he was getting married, and the bride was Liu Rui. This was a great joy for Ye Tianchen’s parents and the entire Ye family because, in Ye Tianchen’s parents’ hearts, Liu Rui had long been their ideal choice for a daughter-in-law!
However, what made Ye Tianchen a bit amused was that it seed Liu Rui hadn’t even married into the Ye family yet, but his parents, including his sister who always sided with outsiders, were already on Liu Rui’s side. Would Ye Tianchen still have any status after getting along with them in the future?
In this situation, Ye Tianchen threw the challenge to the nearby Liu Fei, making the originally cheerful Liu Fei suddenly look crestfallen, unsure of how to respond!
"This... this..." Liu Fei stamred, unable to speak for quite so ti.
"What’s with the hesitation, kid? Don’t you want to side with ?" Ye Tianchen asked with a deliberately threatening smile.
"Brother-in-law, about this..." Liu Fei had not finished his sentence when Liu Rui interrupted him.
"Fei, you better think it over. Think about the consequences of not siding with your big sister..." Liu Rui said in a playfully threatening tone to Liu Fei.
The person who found the situation most amusing and frustrating now was Liu Fei. Originally, Liu Fei was gleefully watching Ye Tianchen’s embarrassnt from the sidelines, but with Ye Tianchen’s words, Liu Fei found himself in a difficult position.
Clearly, if Liu Fei said he sided with his sister Liu Rui, he would offend Ye Tianchen, his brother-in-law. If they beca estranged, how would his future days go? Would he and Qianwen succeed together? But if Liu Fei said he sided with Ye Tianchen, he would undoubtedly offend his sister Liu Rui and be seen as betraying his own. Besides, with the close friendship Liu Rui and Ye Qianwen shared over these years, without Liu Rui’s support, Liu Fei would have a hard ti winning over Ye Qianwen!
"This... this... I don’t know!" Liu Fei said with a long face.
Ye Tianchen glanced at Liu Fei and said with a mischievous smile, "Aren’t you known for being articulate? Now you can’t even handle this little matter, how can I entrust my sister to you?"
"This... brother-in-law, you’re putting in a tough spot! What should I do!" Liu Fei said, looking extrely frustrated.
"Hey, you’re threatening my brother. Besides, Qianwen’s relationship is her own choice, no one can decide it for her!" Liu Rui said playfully, looking at Ye Tianchen.
"That’s true. Our family has always been very democratic, deciding our own matters. But, if my brother-in-law doesn’t get along well with , well, I might have to do sothing bad!" Ye Tianchen said with a mischievous smile.
"Ah? Brother-in-law, I... I... fine, since you’re all putting in a difficult position, my choice is... wherever Qianwen stands, I’ll stand there too!" Liu Fei said through gritted teeth.
"Hahaha, good brother, that’s the right choice, that’s my dear brother!" Liu Rui said with a proud laugh.
Ye Tianchen shook his head in frustration, unable to handle this group. They were simply too formidable. Liu Rui hadn’t even married into the Ye family yet, and already Ye Tianchen felt isolated. How would he manage in the future!
Of course, this was all just everyone joking around, adding a bit of spice to life. Seeing the whole family so happy and joyful, Ye Tianchen felt reassured that he had made the right choice. It was ti to get married. No matter what, Ye Tianchen knew it was ti for him to marry, and it was a matter of great happiness for him and his family and friends.
This al was the happiest al Ye Tianchen felt the family had ever shared, especially for Ye Tianchen’s parents. After such a near-death experience, they were even more eager to see their children get married, have children, and carry on the family line!
"Alright, young man, this should have been brought up by you first. After all, you’re the guy, take Rui out for a walk!" Luo Yan said affectionately, looking at Ye Tianchen with a smile.
"Um, about the wedding..." Ye Tianchen actually didn’t understand much about mortal world weddings, so he spoke up.
"Don’t worry, leave the rest to your mother and , we’ll definitely make it a grand affair." Ye Hong also said with a smile.
"Wait, uncle, aunt, I have one small request..." Liu Rui suddenly said playfully, looking at Ye Tianchen with a smile.
"What request?" Ye Hong asked.
"Rui, if you have any requests, just feel free to ask. You’ve done so much for the Ye family over the years. Whatever your request, as long as the Ye family can manage it, we’ll definitely et your expectations!" Luo Yan said cheerfully.
Liu Rui glanced at Ye Tianchen, chuckling as she said, "This matter only concerns Tianchen!"
"Only concerns ? What matter?" Ye Tianchen asked, puzzled.
"For my wedding, I don’t ask for any pomp or dowries, no gold or silver jewelry. I only have one request: you must propose to !" Liu Rui looked at Ye Tianchen playfully as she spoke.
"Propose? Uh... what do you an by propose? How do I propose?" Ye Tianchen asked, sowhat bewildered.
"I don’t care, that’s your business. In any case, I must be satisfied with your proposal, or I won’t get married!" Liu Rui said with an adorable yet mischievous look.
Ye Tianchen was dumbfounded; he truly hadn’t expected Liu Rui to make such a request. Propose? That word had never crossed his mind before. That Liu Rui would ask this was sothing Ye Tianchen had never imagined. Propose? How should he do it? This was indeed a major dilemma placed in front of Ye Tianchen!
Watching Liu Rui exit the dining room, Ye Tianchen hurried after her, lanting, "I say, can we skip the proposal? I’ve never done anything like that before!"
"It’s not like you’ve been married before, how could you have proposal experience? Lots of people haven’t proposed. You’ll have to figure it out yourself!" Liu Rui rolled her eyes at Ye Tianchen.
"You’re really putting in a difficult spot. If you wanted anything else, I could find it, but asking for a proposal ceremony, this..." Ye Tianchen was so frustrated he couldn’t even speak.
"Well, I don’t care. Without a proposal ceremony that satisfies , I simply won’t marry you. Just a reminder: Uncle and Auntie are in high spirits right now, so don’t upset them!" Liu Rui said with a wicked smile.
"Hey, this is a blatant threat! You can’t play like that!" Ye Tianchen shouted at Liu Rui’s departing figure.
Liu Rui walked off nonchalantly, while Ye Tianchen stood alone at the entrance of the Ye family’s dining room, feeling exasperated. He originally thought the matter of marriage wouldn’t be too troubleso to settle. The wedding would be organized by his parents, and Liu Rui loved him. He only needed to put on a dashing suit and greet everyone with a smile on the wedding day. Who knew, Liu Rui still wanted him to propose—and it had to be a proposal that satisfied her. What now?
Alas, facing Liu Rui’s maneuver, Ye Tianchen felt helpless. Liu Rui was not a simple woman; she was extrely clever. Her move targeted Ye Tianchen’s vulnerability, knowing he was a filial person. Seeing his parents so happy, he would definitely choose to marry. Saying he wasn’t getting married now might literally anger Ye Hong and Luo Yan to death.
"Brother, why are you standing here? Did Sister Rui go to the company?" Ye Qianwen stepped out of the dining room and asked upon seeing her brother Ye Tianchen standing still.
"Don’t ntion it. Liu Rui wants a satisfying proposal ceremony, what am I supposed to do?" Ye Tianchen asked, frustrated.
"This matter, brother, I can’t help you with it. You’ll have to think of sothing yourself, or Sister Rui will definitely be unhappy!" Ye Qianwen shook her head.
"Never expected this move. Sigh, might as well get scolded by the parents to death and not get married!" Ye Tianchen sighed.
"Brother, you can’t do that. Didn’t you see how happy Mom and Dad are to hear you’re getting married? If you say you’re not getting married now, they’ll definitely get upset. Besides, Sister Rui loves you dearly. For a woman to have just one request, you should count yourself lucky. When I get married, humph, there will be many demands!" Ye Qianwen chuckled.
"Qianwen, can you reduce your demands a bit?" Liu Fei said ekly from behind Ye Qianwen.
"Get out of my way!" Ye Qianwen rolled her eyes at Liu Fei and walked ahead. Liu Fei grinned at Ye Tianchen and hastily followed.
Ye Tianchen sighed exasperatedly. He was well aware of the truth in Ye Qianwen’s words. Toward Liu Rui, he indeed felt both guilt and gratitude. Of course, he didn’t have a bad impression of this woman; she was a peerless beauty. As for marrying Liu Rui, psychologically, Ye Tianchen could accept it. Now the difficulty lay in Liu Rui’s demand for a satisfying proposal ceremony. How could he manage that?
"I just can’t understand this woman. She doesn’t have high requirents for the wedding, hardly any demands at all. So why does she insist on a satisfying proposal ceremony? What to do?" Ye Tianchen muttered to himself in frustration as he turned and walked toward his residence.
Ye Tianchen was getting married. Such a situation, such an event was sothing everyone anticipated, sothing everyone wanted to see. So, could the wedding of Ye Tianchen and Liu Rui proceed smoothly? What scene would it be? (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welco to recomnd it on Qidian (qidian), vote for it, and vote with monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.
