Chapter 422 - Sky-high Gift



Chapter 422 Sky-high Gift

Gong Tianhao’s proposal was within their expectations and also without. They had just let Gong Tianhao back into the house, and he immediately proposed.

At this point, Father Xiao and Mother Xiao also hoped that the two would get married. At least, it should happen before the child was born so that he wouldn’t be called illegitimate.

However, giving their daughter away just like that didn’t feel good to them. They had raised their daughter for more than twenty years. Marrying her off felt both happy and sad. They were happy that their daughter had found a man who truly loved her. However, they were sad that their daughter was going to leave them.

Father Xiao did not immediately agree to Gong Tianhao’s request. Instead, he looked at Xiao Lingyu and asked, “Yu ‘Er, what do you think?”

Xiao Lingyu blushed and said in embarrassment, “Dad, you can make the decision.”

Since she was in love with Gong Tianhao, she naturally did not reject marrying him.

Besides, she also wanted Xiao Tong to have a father who loved him and protected him.

In her previous life, she owed him too much. In this life, she wanted to give him the most perfect and happiest life.

With the love of a father, a mother, grandparents, and the two families, he would definitely lead a very happy life this time. Thinking of this, Xiao Lingyu could not help but rub her belly and thought, ‘Xiao Tong, you also want your parents to be together, right? Don’t worry. Your father will definitely care about you.

‘In my previous life, because of Mommy, you’ve suffered too much. In this life, Mommy will definitely not make the same mistake again. I will definitely love you. Your father will be there too. He is very handsome and will protect you.’

Everyone noticed Xiao Lingyu’s action of rubbing her belly.

Father Xiao wanted to say something, but in the end, he said, “Okay! I’ll leave my daughter to you. I hope that you can love her, protect her, and not hurt her.”

“Yes, I’ll definitely love her, protect her, and won’t hurt her. Uncle and Auntie, don’t

worry.”

These past two days, Old Master Gong even walked with the wind in his step.

Yesterday, Old Master Gong brought Gong Tianhao to the Xiao family to propose marriage. Before they went, Old Master Gong and Gong Tianhao had discussed which items to use as betrothal gifts.

“Zhengyang, Qiuying, these are the betrothal gifts we gave you. Take a look.” Grandfather Gong handed a gift list to Mother Xiao and Father Xiao.

Knowing that the Gong family was going to propose the marriage that day, the Xiao family rushed back no matter how busy they were.

As soon as Father Xiao and Mother Xiao opened the gift list, they were shocked. The list was so long that they couldn’t even hold it.

There were six villas in the capital city, two Siheyuan, company shares, stock funds, and so on. Even if Father Xiao didn’t understand stocks, just the six villas in the capital were estimated to be more than ten million.

Their understanding was limited because they had never left the mountain village.

However, Xiao Lingyu, who had worked in City Z before and was an elite worker in her previous life, was shocked by the list of betrothal gifts. The villas were located in the Golden District, so the price was naturally high. Based on her understanding of the real estate in the capital, it was at least 200 million per villa. On top of that, the Siheyuan cost more than one billion each.

But the most pricey item was the company share.

Gong Tianhao was the richest person in the country. Furthermore, he controlled all of the shares and took up 85% of the company’s shares.

For a company as big as his, the annual dividends would be tens of billions.

Now, Gong Tianhao had transferred 45% of the shares to Xiao Lingyu, leaving him with only 40 percent. This meant that Xiao Lingyu was now the largest shareholder.

Previously, Gong Tianhao had said that he would transfer everything he had to Xiao Lingyu, but Xiao Lingyu had rejected him.

Now, Gong Tianhao had given more than half of what he had to her as a betrothal gift.

Xiao Lingyu was very moved.

Although money and wealth were not the only ways to express love, they were of value too. A man could talk until the cows come home but if he didn’t commit to any action, it was pointless. What was the point of marrying such a man?

The Xiao family members saw Xiao Lingyu holding the list of betrothal gifts. Her eyes were red.

Mother Xiao asked curiously, “Yu ‘Er, what’s wrong? Is there a problem with the betrothal gift?” Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “There’s no problem. It’s just that the value of these betrothal gifts has exceeded a hundred billion!”

“Ah!”

“Bang!”

When the Xiao family members heard this, they were extremely shocked.

The cups, chopsticks, and other things in their hands fell to the ground one by one.

Their eyes were wide open, and their mouths were wide open.

“100 billion?!”

In their impression, a million was already a lot of money.

Hearing the number 100 billion was like a dream.

“Yu ‘Er, you said that this betrothal gift is worth more than 100 billion?” Third Uncle Xiao asked again in disbelief.

The others also looked at Xiao Lingyu.

Xiao Lingyu nodded, “The six villas are worth at least 100 billion. The two Siheyuans are two to three billion. The stock funds and the other real estates are around 30 to 40 billion. The 45 percent share of Imperial Group is about 10 billion, and that is just the annual dividend…”

The Xiao family members were completely stunned.

They were unable to regain their senses for a long time.

They were farmers who had to work every day. They had to worry about their livelihood all year round, and their annual income was only a few thousand to tens of thousands of dollars.

After Xiao Lingyu returned to the farm, they began to come into contact with large amounts of money, a few hundred thousand, a few million.

Now, they surpassed ten million and a hundred million and directly went up to billions! They could barely finish this money in their lifetime. This was so much money!

The Xiao family sighed in their hearts.

However, after they recovered from their shock, Father Xiao took the betrothal gift list from Xiao Lingyu and handed it back to Old Master Gong, “Sir, we are marrying our daughter and not selling her. We understand your intention, but this is too heavy. We can’t accept it.”

Old Master Gong was astonished that the Xiao family was able to reject a hundred billion in wealth.

A hundred billion was such a huge temptation.

The Xiao family was only shocked for a moment before rejecting this temptation. Old Master Gong nodded his head in satisfaction. He wasn’t wrong about the Xiao family. Old Master Gong said with a smile, “Zhengyang, Qiuying, Yu ‘Er is a priceless treasure in both my heart and my brat’s heart. “If Yu ‘Er is willing, I will give the entire Gong Family to her, much less a few hundred billion.”

As soon as Old Master Gong finished speaking, the Xiao family members’ expressions were filled with disbelief. They were also moved.

The Gong family really valued Yu ‘Er, which was why they felt that she was a priceless treasure.

Father Xiao took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Sir, Yu ‘Er is a treasure in our hearts too. I’m touched that you think the same way.

“With your heart and love, I believe that my Yu ‘Er will not suffer any grievances when she marries over. That is worth more than even the most expensive betrothal gift.”

After saying this, Papa Xiao pushed the betrothal gift list back and said very seriously, “We absolutely cannot accept this. Sir, please take it back.”

Old Master Gong said somewhat unhappily, “But who marries their daughter without a betrothal gift? It’s not right.”

Betrothal gift was an important culture in Chinese weddings. Sometimes, it was an object of comparison. The greater the betrothal gift, the prouder the bride’s family would be. Therefore, for the sake of face, the bride’s family would ask for a very expensive betrothal

gift.

Father Xiao shook his head and said, “Sir, it’s not that we don’t want the betrothal gift, but we can’t take this heavy betrothal gift.”

Old Master Gong instantly understood.
