"You stole my heart with just one smile, and I've been longing for you ever since."
"You speak of love as deep as the sea, but I dare not accept."
"Nothing is more romantic than watching the sunset side by side with you."
"My heart yearns for you."
"........"
"I want to roam the world with you, enjoying the beauty of sun and rain."
"I want to spread paper and ink with you, writing the chapters of our lives."
"Sharing both laughter and tears, no matter how the story unfolds."
..........
Ye's father and mother listened, smiling. Luo Mingtian and Su Dongmei had complex expressions. As for the powerful heads of the various families, their gazes fell upon Luo Tianyi, their hearts filled with an unprecedented solemnity.
This girl held such a significant position in Young Master Ye's heart. From now on, no matter what, they must not offend her. Furthermore, they had to build good relations with the Luo family, for after all, the influence of a wife's gentle persuasion on a man could be very powerful.
They understood this point perfectly! Da Feng Novel Network
"Damn, the boss is awesome!"
"Mighty and domineering, incredibly cool and breathtaking!"
"If I had even a tenth, or even a hundredth, of the boss's prowess, why would I still be a single dog at this point!!"
Xiao Ming and the other two grumbled and complained. Lin Yuxi was also sweet-talked by the grand display of affection from the boss on stage. His wife was simply too fortunate. How many lifetimes of good fortune must she have accumulated to meet such a man?
Could it be... that his wife was a great philanthropist for ten lifetimes??
As Lin Yuxi thought this, she looked at the boss on stage, who was ten times more outstanding than a prince charming, and then at the childhood sweetheart she had chosen. She truly wanted to kick him with her foot.
Why was the gap between people so vast!
A moment later.
The song ended, silence fell!
At this moment, with one song, Ye Xuan had captured the hearts of countless young ladies from prestigious families and wealthy households. Of course, more importantly, they had been informed by their own elders that if they could win over Young Master Ye, their entire families would soar to prosperity.
Although they were not as stunningly beautiful as Luo Tianyi, they were still beautiful women. If they put in their full effort, who knew if they might become a mistress, or a second mistress? At the very least, even being a fifth or sixth mistress would be acceptable.
However, the prerequisite was whether Young Master Ye would even notice them. For their part, they had no problem whatsoever.
Clap, clap, clap, clap~~
Following a silence of about ten seconds, thunderous applause once again filled the banquet hall. The gazes of the young ladies from wealthy families towards Ye Xuan intensified several degrees.
"Senior Ye Xuan is so amazing!"
"Mhmm, it's super sweet. Senior Tianyi is so lucky. If I were Senior Tianyi, I would definitely be so happy I couldn't sleep for three days and three nights!"
"Oh, how wonderful it would be if my boyfriend were Senior Ye Xuan~~"
A wave of cute girls from Tianhai University gazed at their male god, their eyes filled with adoration.
At this moment, Ye Xiaowen, in her high heels, stepped onto the stage. Holding the microphone to her lips, she said, "Next, please give a round of applause to welcome our bride, Ms. Luo Tianyi, to the stage!"
As her voice fell, thunderous applause immediately erupted from the audience. Xiao Ming and the others could not contain themselves, letting out excited shouts amidst the clapping.
Hearing this, Luo Tianyi's face flushed slightly, but she braced herself and walked towards the stage. After all, she was the protagonist of the day, and she had to go up.
As everyone in the hall gazed at Luo Tianyi, who appeared as if a fairy had descended, dressed in a white wedding gown, their eyes lit up. Clearly, beauty always brightened people's moods.
"Now, I invite the two of you to solemnly express your personal true intentions in front of your beloved relatives and friends!"
"Ye Xuan, after this period of getting to know each other, what impression do you have of Ms. Luo Tianyi?" Ye Xiaowen held the microphone towards her cousin, proceeding with the solemn and dignified steps.
"Very good."
Ye Xuan looked at the person before him and said firmly.
Hearing this, Ye Xiaowen's lips curved into a smile. "Do you then agree to establish an engagement relationship with Ms. Luo Tianyi?"
"I do!"
........
Next, Ye Xiaowen turned the microphone to Luo Tianyi. "Luo Tianyi, after this period of getting to know each other, what impression do you have of Mr. Ye Xuan?"
"Very good........."
Soon, the engagement ceremony concluded. Ye Xiaowen proceeded with the final item. "Next, I ask everyone to eat and drink well tonight. Hereby, I announce that the engagement banquet is now open!"
As Ye Xiaowen's voice fell, the ready staff, carrying plates, orderly placed them on every dining table. Soon, the tables were laden with various dishes.
"Whoa~!!"
Seeing the dishes on the table, Xiao Ming could not help but exclaim, "Boss, this engagement banquet is an absolute extravagance!"
"Every single dish can be considered a top-tier selection!"
"What's wrong?"
"Yes, these dishes look good. Are they very expensive!!"
Lu Tong and Zhang Zitong exchanged a confused glance, vaguely sensing that there was something they didn't know.
"Expensive?"
"Extremely expensive!!"
Xiao Ming glanced at Lu Tong and Zhang Zitong and continued, "Every dish on this table is a famous delicacy. Dragon Soaring Phoenix Dancing, Shark Fin Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Chicken Essence Marinated Abalone, Thatched Cottage Eight Delicacies........"
Xiao Ming listed every dish on the table as if reciting a familiar list, the names alone enough to overwhelm one.
At this moment, at an adjacent table, a middle-aged man asked a waiter.
"Excuse me, I'd like to ask, how much is a table like ours?" The middle-aged man was portly and looked prosperous, suggesting he was in the restaurant business.
"Sir, today's engagement banquet has a total of 28 dishes and 6 soups, making it 34 courses in total!"
"As for the price, each table is 38,888 yuan."
