Yang Rou was so happy that she almost jumped up. “Thank you, Mom. I’m so happy.”
She could finally marry the person she loved the most.
Soon, Yang Xuan and An Li sent a visiting card to the Hu family.
The Hu family replied very quickly.
The two families met at three in the afternoon.
An Li carefully chose a set of clothes and a formal set of clothes for Yang Xuan. The two of them set off for the Hu family.
“Wow, isn’t this An Li? Why are you free to visit my house?”
As soon as she entered, Chen Ci asked in a strange tone.
An Li walked in and sat down. She smiled and said, “Of course I have something to discuss. I should have come to visit long ago.”
Hu Shao looked at Yang Xuan and hurriedly said, “President Yang, please take a seat!”
Yang Xuan nodded and sat down.
The four of them drank their tea.
For a moment, no one spoke. The atmosphere was a little strange.
An Li was the first to break the silence. She asked Chen Ci, “Second Mrs. Hu, I came today to discuss the matters between Hu Shuo and my daughter, Yang Rou.”
“Huh? What’s the matter between them?” Chen Ci pretended not to understand and asked after taking a sip of tea.
In the past, when she was helping Hu Ying, An Li’s words were especially unpleasant.
Now that she saw An Li’s defeated expression, Chen Ci was secretly happy.
Yang Xuan coughed. “My daughter, Yang Rou, is insensible. She and your son are in love, but she didn’t tell the elders at home. I came today to set a date for the two children to get married.”
As soon as she said that, Chen Ci choked on her water.
She coughed for a long time before asking, “I didn’t hear Hu Shuo mention this. I still have to ask my child. Also, if it’s a marriage alliance, they should get engaged first. Why do they have to get married so early?”
An Li hesitated for a moment before saying, “My daughter, Yang Rou, is already pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Hu family.”
Chen Ci was stunned on the spot.
Hu Shao was also surprised. “Is that true?”
No wonder the Yang family was so anxious. They didn’t even care about their reputation and wanted the two families to settle the marriage.
Chen Ci smiled, her eyes filled with contempt. “Are you sure that child is really a member of our Hu family? Don’t tell me she’s been messing around with other men and trying to pin the child on our Hu family. Our Hu family isn’t one to be bullied.”
“Chen Ci! What do you mean?” An Li stood up and looked at Chen Ci angrily.
Hu Shao quickly tried to smooth things over. “Mrs. Yang, calm down. Although our Hu family’s second family didn’t inherit the family business, we still live our lives rightfully. It’s important for us to get a clear understanding of the situation so we can be fair to both children.”
An Li snorted and turned her head away.
She said, “Whether that child belongs to your family or not, ask Hu Shuo to come back and ask. It’s useless for you to guess blindly here.”
Chen Ci said coldly, “My son is busy in the company all day long. How can he have the time to come back? He’s not like your Yang Rou who doesn’t do anything all day.”
“You!” An Li was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, and her tears were about to fall.
If it wasn’t for her daughter, she would have scolded the woman opposite her. Why should she suffer this?
Hu Shao nudged his wife. “Let’s call Hu Shuo back. This matter concerns the Hu family’s bloodline.”
Chen Ci sneered. “Alright, I’ll get Hu Shuo to come back now.”
Not long after, Hu Shuo returned.
The moment he walked into the living room, he saw that the elders of both families were present.
He knelt on the ground and said sincerely, “Four elders, it’s all my fault. I really like Sister Yang Rou. I hope you can fulfill my wish.”
When An Li saw him coming over, she carefully sized him up.
Hu Shuo’s figure and bearing were not bad. He had bright eyes and was indeed a rare handsome man in the wealthy circle.
After coming here, he admitted his mistake first and knew how to be responsible.
From her point of view, he was a pretty good guy.
Chen Ci immediately pulled him up and patted the dust off his body. “What did you do wrong? I don’t care about that. If anyone dares to blame you, I’ll be the first to disagree.”
Her words were meant for the two elders of the Yang family to hear.
An Li held her breath. “Hu Shuo, tell me, is the child in Yang Rou’s stomach yours?”
She wanted Hu Shuo to admit it.
Hu Shuo was pleasantly surprised. “Yang Rou is pregnant?”
An Li nodded.
Hu Shuo knelt down in front of his mother again. “Mom, I want to give Sister
Yang Rou a status. Let our Hu family propose to the Yang family now..”
