Chapter 1418: The Song Couple (146)
They all knew about Ji Xing starting his own business. They just thought that he was just saying it and no one took it seriously. So what if he started his own business?
At most, it would be a small company. It was already an overestimation for him to be able to earn tens of millions a year. Compared to the Song Corporation, it was nothing.
However, they did not expect him to give them such a heavy blow. In a few months, the small company became famous in the Chinese business world. Many families, including the Song family, felt threatened by him.
Universe Group. He was really awesome to have such a big name.
Song Heng was very satisfied with Ji Xing’s ident.i.ty. Otherwise, even if his family agreed to his marriage with Yanyan, they wouldn’t be able to shut others up.
Ever since Yanyan had a boyfriend and brought Ji Xing to the courtyard, all kinds of rumors have spread.
The worst one was that Ji Xing was a gigolo who lived off a woman. They looked down on him and Yanyan, saying that she had found a useless boyfriend and embarra.s.sed the Song family.
Song Xu and Song Han whispered to each other. They admired their brother-in-law from the bottom of their hearts.
Like Song Heng, the two of them were also martial artists and not businessmen. They did not know how to play the game of scheming in the business world. They spent a lot of effort and were unwilling to learn it even if they were beaten to death, so they all went to the army.
However, as a soldier, he was straightforward. He had long disliked Third Uncle’s methods. It was true that he tried to win people over, but sometimes, he used some methods that were too gentle.
This was especially true for some of the families under the Song family. They had long been disloyal, he didn’t clean up what needed to be cleaned up and let Ji Xing handle this matter.
He might as well get rid of those who were dragging them down and teach them a lesson. Let’s see if they still dare to lie.
In the middle of the living room, where everyone’s eyes were focused, Song Chen was overjoyed. He smiled until his face was red. Even the anger caused by Huo Xiao he held in his chest disappeared.
Yanyan had good taste! He had found such a good son-in-law for the Song family. He had to reward her.
Song Yiyan was embarra.s.sed. It was clearly Song Heng’s engagement, why did she and Ji Xing have to be the center of attention? She whispered, “Grandpa, today is my third brother’s engagement. Take it easy, we’ll talk about this later.”
.....
She was afraid that the protagonist would be unhappy if she stole his limelight. It was easy for Third Brother, but she was afraid that Sister Bai Lu and her friends would think that they did not know how to be polite.
The supervisor in charge of this engagement did not dare to look for General Song. He could only brace himself and walk up to remind Song Heng that the ceremony was about to begin and ask everyone present to get ready.
“Third Brother, it’s been hard on you.”
Song Xu patted his shoulder and teased, “I forgot that today is your engagement ceremony.”
Song Heng sighed helplessly and looked at his two older brothers. “I don’t care. If you don’t find a wife soon, you’ll suffer after Yanyan gets married.”
At that time, they would not have any peace.
“No, as long as you give grandpa a little great-grandson, he won’t remember us.” Song Xu smiled gloatingly.
Song Han added, “All the best! Brother and I have high hopes for you!”
Married? They don’t even have a girlfriend now. Why would they get married? Wasn’t it good to be single? Why did they have to find someone to lock their lives away? It was too painful.
Song Heng didn’t dare to interrupt the old man, so he found his father and asked Song Shu to go over.
Fortunately, after Song Yiyan told Song Chen about it, Song Chen stopped talking about this topic. He smiled at the guests and said, “Today is my family’s third son’s engagement ceremony. Everyone, have a good time. Eat, drink, and have fun. Don’t stand on ceremony.”
Song Heng’s face was covered in tears, he finally remembered that he was engaged today. It has not been easy.
Even though Song Chen said that, everyone maintained a smile on the surface, but which one of them hadn’t suffered a setback due to the Universe Group?
Song Chen walked to a place with fewer people before glaring at Song Yiyan. “Why didn’t you tell Grandpa about such a big matter earlier? How long are you planning to hide it from me?”
Song Yiyan coaxed, “It’s because you didn’t ask, Grandpa. They just exaggerated it.”
Song Chen asked, “How big do you want it to be before telling me?”
He, an old man who did not care about business matters, knew that recently, because of the Universe Group, many families had been in a state of crisis. They were afraid that they would be the next to be annexed.
Ji Xing was very serious. “It’s about time to surpa.s.s Jun s.h.i.+yan.”
Hearing this, Song Chen laughed happily and patted his arm. “Okay, just follow this goal. If you need any support, just tell me.”
Wasn’t Huo Xiao showing off?
So what if he had a great-grandson? His Yanyan and Ji Xing would also give him a little great-grandson.
So what if he had Jun s.h.i.+yan as his grandson-in-law? Their Song family’s grandson-in-law would definitely surpa.s.s Third Master Jun in the future.
Song Yiyan’s eyes lit up as she looked at Ji Xing. Was he sure he could surpa.s.s Jun s.h.i.+yan? Then wouldn’t he be the richest man in the world? She would be the wife of the richest man!
Jun s.h.i.+yan had bullied her baby Sheng Sheng some time ago. Sheng Sheng wasn’t angry, but she held a grudge. It didn’t seem bad to s.n.a.t.c.h his position as the richest man in the world.
On the red carpet, the newcomer had already appeared under the host’s introduction.
Under the effects of the champagne, roses, and 4D holographic stage, everything was as beautiful as a dream scene.
Bai Lu held Song Heng’s arm and stood in the middle of the stage. On the huge screen behind them, a video clip of the two of them getting to know each other was playing.
Ji Xing tilted his head slightly and leaned into her ear. “What kind of engagement ceremony do you want?”
Song Yiyan glanced at him. “Engagement? Grandpa can’t wait for us to have a child now. You still want to get engaged!”
Ji Xing’s eyes glanced at her stomach. “How much did you just eat?”
Song Yiyan frowned and looked at it, she really had a tummy. She looked up at him with a bright smile, but her words were filled with gritted teeth. “How can it be a tummy? It’s clearly a baby.”
She knew it. Although she had been eating a lot recently, she did not gain weight just by eating. Why would she have a belly?
She did not dare to eat anything in the morning when she wore her gown, but she still had a small tummy.
Ji Xing’s eyes were filled with ecstasy, and his voice trembled with excitement. “Really?”
Song Yiyan rolled her eyes. “I’m about to enter the filming crew. Even if I have a baby, I’m going to continue with it!”
Just as she finished speaking, someone on the other side suddenly took out a knife. With a flash of the knife, he rushed in her direction.
Song Yiyan’s eyes turned cold and she subconsciously covered her stomach.
