276 Talk When We Meet Chu Cichen fell silent. He then slowly spoke, “I’m at the capital now.”

Shen Ruojing. “????”

Question marks filled her mind!

Her lips twitched as she asked, “Tell me on the phone then.”

“No.” The man actually started playing punk, and there was even a hint of coquettishness in his tone. “Isaid that I won’t lie to you, so I can only tell you about this when we meet face to face.”

“…” Shen Ruojing was completely speechless toward this man!

When did the CEO of Chu Corporation, the big man with the sharp aura, actually learn to use suchtechniques?

Her lips twitched. “In that case, when will you be back?”

“I probably won’t go back to Ford City for a while. The Chu Corporation is going to expand in thecapital.” The man’s voice was very low, filled with immense fatigue. “Jingjing, come to the capital. Thisis the fastest way we can meet.”

Shen Ruojing pursed her lips.

Should she head to the capital?

She actually had many old friends in the capital.

Back then, the reason she chose to retire in Sea City was because her family was there.

She then asked again, “Where is Xiaomeng?”

“She’s with me and everything is fine. Don’t worry.”

Shen Ruojing inhaled deeply and said, “Then I’ll go and look for you tomorrow.”

Only an hour’s drive was required to reach the capital. So, she would just look for him and meet face toface to hear the truth.

The man passionately spoke, “Sure, I’ll wait for you.”

“…”

After hanging up, Shen Ruojing took another deep breath before driving back to the Yun Manor.

The people in the living room were extremely busy, preparing the lunch banquet.

The fourth madam of the Bai Family would personally bring her son Bai Xiaojiu to come to propose. So,the Yun Family couldn’t be rude.

Madam Yun was extremely busy, and even Yun Zhengyang didn’t go to the company. He chose to stayhome and help, given that the person who was coming was a daughter of the Bai Family.

Even the two Mrs. Yun from the second and third house came.

Ever since Yun Wei got engaged with Bai Xiaojiu, the two houses became much more agreeable.

There wasn’t much that Shen Ruojing could help with, hence, she just chose to head upstairs.However, she saw Shen Qianhui packing up her suitcase in her room.

Shen Ruojing asked, “Do you want to return already?”

Shen Qianhui immediately replied, “No…your father has to go to the capital for filming tomorrow. I’mgoing to accompany him for two days.”

(…What a coincidence.)

Shen Ruojing calmly said, “Let us go together then.”

She would just treat it as a retirement holiday trip.

Shen Qianhui nodded.

The two of them then packed their luggage simply and didn’t alarm the members of the Yun Family.

Very soon, noon came and the fourth madam of the Bai Family brought Bai Xiaojiu over.

The purpose of their trip was to deliver the betrothal gifts. Although Bai Xiaojiu and Yun Wei hadn’tknown each other for long, the majority of marriages between rich families were for the sake ofbusiness. It was already not bad that both were fond of each other within such a short period.

The fourth madam of the Bai Family was a woman with a very cold expression perpetually. She wasclose to fifty years of age and her skin was slightly tanned. Also, she had a skinny figure, and the smileon her face wasn’t apparent. Her eyes glinted with pickiness as she looked at Yun Wei. There was aclear look of dissatisfaction on her face.

The fourth madam of the Bai Family couldn’t understand this at all!

There were so many grandchildren in the Bai Family, but why did her son have to marry a daughter ofthe Yun Family?

One must know that the grandchildren of the Bai Family were usually married to either high-levelofficials or dignitaries, or people from the four great families! When she departed to deliver the betrothal

gifts, the third madam even mocked her!

Her son had always been inconspicuous since he was young. So when Old Master Bai had picked herson to accompany him, the fourth madam thought that her son’s luck was going to change. However,she hadn’t expected that after a single trip out, he was actually engaged to a woman from a smallfamily!

The Yun Family was primarily in the entertainment industry, but the Bai Family basically didn’t careabout this.

One must know that the four great families could even influence major government policies.

If they wanted to suppress the Yun Family, they merely needed to replace an excuse to seal their artistesand take down the films that their artistes were making, not allowing them to be broadcast.

This was also the reason why the four families looked down on ordinary wealthy families.

After the group of them sat down in the living room, Fourth Madam Bai surveyed the interior of the YunManor.

Every inch of the capital’s land was worth its weight in gold. But in Ford City, the Yun Family was morecarefree.

Although this manor couldn’t be compared to the Bai Family’s manor, it was still pretty impressive.Fourth Madam Bai finally revealed a hint of satisfaction in her eyes after seeing their aesthetic sense.

At the very least, they had some foundation and weren’t like those nouveau riches.

Her attitude caused everyone in the Yun Family to feel their anticipation dwindle for this wedding. Theirhearts cooled by several degrees.

Yun Wei also clenched her fingers nervously and looked at Bai Xiaojiu.

She suddenly felt a little perplexed with regard to her future life.

If Bai Xiaojiu was a mommy’s boy and if Fourth Madam Bai disliked her no matter what, wouldn’t shebe very unhappy with Bai Xiaojiu?

Bai Wei wanted a marriage alliance with the Yun Family because…firstly, Bai Xiaojiu and Yun Wei likedeach other mutually. Secondly, it was because of that big boss!

However, the big boss’s identity was too secretive. No one must reveal his identity.

So, Bai Xiaojiu’s mother felt aggrieved and thought that her son would marry below his status. Thismight be caused by the kind of environment she had been in since birth.

Right now, he needed to reassure both parties.

Bai Xiaojiu smiled and spoke, “Mother, let’s bring out our gifts first.”

Fourth Madam Bai glanced at him before bringing out a dowry list and passing it to Madam Yun.

Madam Yun then took it and was extremely shocked once she read it.

Initially, she had thought the Bai Family would look down on them, and the betrothal gifts would merelybe simple ones for the sake of the ceremony. She hadn’t expected that they would actually give somany things!

Other than property deeds in the capital, there were various antique calligraphy and treasures. Just thegift money alone was 1 billion!

Madam Yun was dumbfounded.

Bai Xiaojiu immediately helped claim credit for his mother. “When the Bai Family’s grandson ismarrying a wife, the standard gifts and money are about 100 million. Everything else you see here issomething my mother took out from her own dowry.”

After he said this, Yun Wei was dumbfounded and her eyes ardently looked at Fourth Madam Bai.

Fourth Madam Bai then shot a glare at Bai Xiaojiu, as though blaming him for revealing too much.

Shen Ruojing’s lips suddenly curled when she watched from the side.

So, this Fourth Madam Bai had a warm heart underneath her icy exterior.

Chu Tianye also secretly moved behind Madam Yun. After glancing at the list, his eyes shone withpassion as he looked at Fourth Madam Bai. He almost lost control and ran over, wanting to ask her ifshe wanted to arrange a marriage for him as well!

Bai Xiaojiu made another joke when the gifts were taken out, and the atmosphere finally became lively.

The Yun Family then organized a lunch banquet.

After seeing the food on the table, especially knowing that all these were personally arranged by YunWei, Fourth Madam Bai’s expression softened a lot.

After lunch, the group of them sat on the sofa.

In a couple of days, it was the Bai Family’s turn to hold a banquet and invite Yun Wei and the YunFamily’s daughters to play. Although it was supposed to be an informal visit, it was to introduce YunWei to everyone.

Yun Wei had to prepare gifts for all of the Bai Family’s relatives.

Madam Yun asked, “I wonder what’s everyone’s hobby? We hope to make preparations early.”

“No need for that, I’ve prepared the gifts on her behalf.” Fourth Madam Bai waved her hand, and abodyguard took a chest out. “There are gifts for everyone in the Bai Family. At that time, you can justgive them away according to the categories I divided them into. You are only required to give themsomething once in your life. If you give something unsuitable, you might become a joke, and it wouldalso be easy for others to look down on you.”

She spoke tactfully, but Madam Yun and Yun Wei’s faces turned red.

Fourth Madam Bai’s words caused them to feel her disdain.

But after seeing the contents of the chest, the two of them immediately pursed their lips.

The items within weren’t expensive ones. The Yun Family could also afford them.

However, these things were all extremely rare and only had demand but no supply!

Even if one had money, one wouldn’t be able to collect all these items within a single generation.

At this instant, they finally understood why Fourth Madam Bai had the look of pickiness in her eyesearlier. They also understood even more clearly about the disparity between the four great familiesfrom the capital and others!

Fourth Madam Bai then introduced the items one by one, and Yun Wei sharply noticed something. Sheimmediately wanted to say something but decided to keep quiet instead.

Fourth Madam Bai sighed in admiration silently at her sharp senses, and her good will toward Yun Weiincreased. She sighed again, “Do you want to ask why there are no gifts for the Old Master?”

Yun Wei nodded.

Fourth Madam Bai continued, “The Old Master loves calligraphy. This is especially so for the cursivescript written by ‘Madman’, Old Master Bai is recently very fond of them. Sadly, Madman retired fiveyears ago…I’m currently searching for collectors so I can purchase the calligraphies. If the Yun Familyhas a channel to get those calligraphy pieces, you can try searching for them…”

After saying that, she suddenly realized how could the Yun Family have such channels?

Now, Fourth Madam Bai felt even more uncomfortable psychologically.

For others, marriage was something like a joint-alliance. If they ran into a problem, both families couldcontribute by making use of their networks and channels. But the Yun Family wasn’t even able to helpwith something like this.

She pursed her lips. “Forget it, I’ll try thinking of a solution.”

Madam Yun blushed again.

Cursive script calligraphy written by ‘Madman’…She had never even heard of this guy before, and sheknew nothing about calligraphy.

However, Yun Zhengyang had heard of this person. The writings were beautiful, but Madman had onlywritten a few calligraphy works, and all his works had been collected by the four great families. Wherecould Yun Zhengyang buy them from?

No one noticed that Shen Ruojing, who was seated at the side, suddenly started slightly as herexpression grew somewhat embarrassed.

Cough.

Madman…this name would always cause her to feel some shame.

When she was twenty, she was young and hot-blooded, but she was questioning now why in the worlddid she give herself such a Chūnibyō name?

She coughed and slowly spoke, “…The Yun Family has Madman’s cursive calligraphy.”
