Chapter 188: Marriage Proposal
The two sides temporarily stopped, so that Xiang Yufeng, who was standing aside, also breathed a big sigh, and the stone hanging in his heart just now was finally put down, whether it was Qin Botong or Gu Luo, if something went wrong at their birthday banquet, he would not be able to get out of it, and the Xiang family would definitely be implicated.
"Southwind, get seated. Xiang Yufeng took a deep breath and hurriedly beckoned Xiang Nanfeng to enter the table, so as to break away from this unpleasant scene just now.
Xiang Nanfeng bowed his head slightly and patted Gu Luo's shoulder, but he did not sit at Jiang Xiang's table, but found an empty table, and Xiang Nanfeng's partner Liehu also followed behind them, and after Xiang Nanfeng took a seat, it simply lay on his lap, closed his eyes and dozed, as if the noise of the outside world had nothing to do with it.
"Uncle Nanfeng, why did you stop me just now, otherwise I would have killed him. Gu Luo said angrily to Xiang Nanfeng.
"Don't be impulsive in everything, he is the royal blood after all, if you really make a move, even your grandfather will probably not be able to protect you in this matter today, and it will even affect the entire Gu family. Xiang Nanfeng took a cup of tea, took a sip slowly, and said with a solemn face.
"Uncle Nanfeng's words are serious, right?" Gu Luo couldn't accept it, a little unimpressed.
"Do you know the details of the person next to him?" Xiang Nanfeng looked at Gu Luo's disapproving eyes, and a trace of worry flashed on his face.
Gu Luo was stunned for a moment, but still shook his head.
"He is Jiang Xiang who is in charge of the secret guard of the three guards of the empire......" Xiang Nanfeng didn't say anything more, just said Jiang Xiang's identity, he believed that if Gu Luo had a little brain, he would definitely understand the truth.
"Ah......" Gu Luo was shocked after hearing this, and immediately understood Xiang Nanfeng's intentions.
If he really started to fight Xiang Nanfeng today, then it was very simple that Jiang Xiang would definitely magnify this matter infinitely, and in the end, it would definitely affect the entire Gu family because of this.
"Thank you, Uncle Nanfeng. Gu Luo was silent, but solemnly thanked Xiang Nanfeng, if Xiang Nanfeng wasn't here today, he was afraid that he would cause a big disaster to the family.
Xiang Nanfeng smiled faintly and bowed slightly.
Just as the two were talking in a whisper, the hall suddenly burst into warm applause.
Xiang Yufeng with the support of his two sons, tonight's birthday star walked forward with a red face, behind them Xiang Nianran was dressed in white and shengxue, under the background of the light, the whole person seemed to be dyed with a layer of pale golden brilliance, beautiful, but her cold face was always covered with a layer of frost, as if to reject people thousands of miles away, making people dare not face it.
Xiang Nianran's appearance, Qin Botong and Gu Luo, the princes of King Zhao, stopped all their movements and stared at Xiang Nianran motionlessly, seeing that they should be really deeply attracted by her at the moment, and they couldn't extricate themselves from it.
Xiang Nianran seemed to feel those two burning eyes as well, his eyes swept over them, and his expression did not change in the slightest from beginning to end.
"Brother Zhan, wake up quickly, if you don't wake up, Nianran will not be able to hold on. Xiang Nianran's cold eyes covered her heart secretly prayed, hoping that Nan Kezhan could regain her senses, the pressure brought to her by the family during this time was too great, making her almost unable to resist.
Next to Xiang Nianran is Xiang Siqi, she is six or seven points similar to Xiang Nianran, but her personality is diametrically opposite, a pair of weird big eyes, full of spirituality, but she swept Xiang Nianran's eyes from time to time with a hint of worry.
She already knew the family's decision, but she didn't know the existence of Nan Ke Zhan, otherwise, according to her character, she would definitely run to the Nan Ke family to move the soldiers as soon as possible, so she didn't want her sister who had been protecting her to marry someone she didn't like.
Xiang Yufeng waved his hand, signaling that they didn't need to applaud. "Ladies and gentlemen, the old man is here to say thank you, thank you for your face, thank you for your support to the Xiang family over the years, it can be said that without you, there would be no Xiang family today. β
"The old decay is eighty years old, the youth is no more, and in a few years it may be the dust to the dust, and it is precisely because of this that the old decay wants to take this opportunity to invite you to come, talk about the old days, and hope that everyone will sit together and have fun, no longer bound by mundane things, let go of everything, put everything aside, talk about the world, speak freely, and really be yourself. β
Bang Bang ......
As soon as Xiang Yufeng's words came out, they immediately resonated with most of the people in the audience, and the applause rose again, even louder than before.
Xiang Yufeng said this, glancing at the two sons beside him. "I would like to take this opportunity to announce something to them. β
When everyone heard that Xiang Yufeng had something to announce, they all knew that tonight's topic was coming, everyone listened attentively, for most people, Xiang Yufeng's decision tonight may affect their future cooperation, who let the Xiang family in the business field, every big decision he made was undoubtedly a storm for this field.
The Xiang family's influence in the business world is no weaker than the influence of the Nanke family in the military world, although the two are not the same.
"The old man is old, many things are more than enough and his strength is insufficient, and he is no longer suitable for the general trend of rapid progress, and he is destined to be eliminated. β
Xiang Yufeng sighed, and pushed the two sons beside him down in front of the stage as he spoke. "Xiaoxian and Xiaoming are the two most talented of Lao Yu's sons, and they are also able to take charge of themselves at the moment, so from today on, Lao Yu will withdraw from decision-making, and Xiaoxian and Xiaoming will be fully responsible. If there is anything wrong with what they have done, I hope that you can take more responsibility for the thin side of the old decay and give them more opportunities, and the old decay believes that they will not let you down. β
There was a brief silence in the field, and then there was warm applause in the audience, Xiang Xiaoxian and Xiang Xiaoming stood in front of the stage, looking forward to Shenfei, although they both desperately wanted to control their excitement at the moment, but they still showed a trace of excitement.
"Thank you again. β
After Xiang Yufeng finished speaking, he bowed deeply to everyone in the audience, causing everyone in the audience to get up and return the salute, and they didn't even dare to say that they didn't dare.
After Xiang Yufeng finished speaking, he turned around and nodded at the two proud sons. "Say a few words, too. β
"First of all, I would like to thank you again for coming, your arrival has made our Xiang family flourish, and I take this opportunity to assure you that although my father no longer cares about family affairs, and our brother takes over, in terms of cooperation with you, I think we will be closer in the future, earn money together, and drink wine together! " Xiang Xiaoxian nodded with Xiang Xiaoming, took a step forward, took a deep breath, and said calmly.
"Good!"
I don't know who was the first to speak, followed by thunderous applause, they have completely relieved themselves at the moment, although the transfer of the Xiang family's rights, it should not affect their cooperation, and it may go further.
"Everyone, let's toast together, for your arrival, for better cooperation in the future, and for the health of my father!" Xiang Xiaoxian raised his glass to everyone, and clinked glasses with Xiang Xiaoming, who had been silent beside him, and the brothers drank it all in one gulp.
"Cheers to Xiang Lao's health!" everyone in the audience also toasted one after another.
......
"Now please drink and dance to your heart's content. Xiang Xiaoxian spoke again, igniting the opening of tonight's birthday banquet.
The lights flickered, the banquet stage was filled with brilliant brilliance, and the elegant singing voice came out, heralding the beginning of the ball.
At this moment, Zhao Wang Shizi got up suddenly, walked quickly to Xiang Nianran, who was about to leave the stage, and took out a dreamlike purple grape-colored crystal necklace from his arms, and fell to the ground on one knee at the same time.
"Nianran, marry me. β
Phew!
The crowd who was about to dance on stage or drink to their heart's content was stunned, with a stunned expression, and stopped quietly watching the development of the situation.
They never imagined that the prince of Zhao would propose to Xiang Nianran on this occasion and in this environment, and it was so sharp, it couldn't help but remind people of the rumors about the engagement between the prince of Zhao and Xiang Nianran some time ago.
"It seems that they have been planning for a long time......"
"The Xiang family is taking advantage of the situation this time. Some people couldn't help but mumble to themselves.
Everyone else present waited quietly, the marriage between the Xiang family and King Zhao did not have much impact on them, but for someone, it was a bolt from the blue.
"No! you can't agree!"
Gu Luo got up suddenly at this moment, his original bronzed skin was even more shining, and he stepped forward with a step, and he wanted to make a move.
"Gu Luo!" Qin Botong was furious, and suddenly got up and looked at Gu Luo.
"Hmph!" Gu Luo snorted coldly at Qin Botong, then turned around and stared at Xiang Nianran, who was not shocked, and took out a complete set of jewelry from his arms, which was gorgeous and dazzling, compared to Qin Botong's necklace, it was definitely priceless, and at the same time, he knelt on one knee and said solemnly.
"Nian Ran, please accept me, I will love you and love you for the rest of my life. β
Phew!
There was a burst of gasps in the field again, they never expected this to happen, two men with amazing identities and extremely good backgrounds proposed to a girl at the same time, I really don't know if this girl is lucky or unlucky.
However, there were also people in the audience who gloated at all this, in their opinion, no matter which one Xiang Nianran chooses, he will offend the other family in disguise, which is definitely a big disadvantage to the Xiang family, and they are happy to see it.
Xiang Yufeng sighed slightly, he still couldn't stop the development of this situation, and Xiang Xiaoxian and Xiang Xiaoming were stunned at the same time, they really didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, which caught them a little off guard for a while, after all, the background of both of them was too deep, and it was not for the Xiang family to offend.
And the protagonist Xiang Nianran still looks cold, as if this matter has nothing to do with it at all, but she is extremely struggling in her heart, expecting Nan Ke Zhan to wake up, even if Nan Ke Zhan can't wake up, as long as Nan Ke Rui can come in time, he can stop all this and carry it for her, neither Zhao Wangfu nor the Gu family dare to provoke the Nan Ke family.
While everyone was waiting quietly, the originally closed hall slowly opened, and a faint voice came, as if it came from outside the sky.
"Although I admit that my fiancΓ©e is extremely good and loves beauty, I don't want to see anyone use this to set off in this way, and of course I can also take your actions as a silent provocation to me. β
