Chapter 286 Engagement Banquet
Chapter 286 Engagement Banquet
Chi Shiyun smiled, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth: "It seems that Chi Yuanqing told you what happened at home."
"There is no other way, I must..." Qian Shian bit his lips tightly, frowned, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted rudely by Chi Shiyun: "Qian Shi'an, everything you have now is given to you by me. If you don't want your identity as an illegitimate daughter to be made public, then marrying Jiang Qingying is your only choice."
Qian Shi'an still wanted to struggle, her voice trembling a little: "This is not a question of whether I will marry or not. What if, what if Jiang Qingying doesn't want to marry me?"
"You don't need to worry about this issue. I have a way to make Jiang Qingying agree." Chi Shiyun's tone was firm and resolute, as if everything was under his control.
Qian Mingzhu held Qian Shian's hand, her palms full of cold sweat, and her voice was pleading: "Why must it be my daughter?"
Chi Shiyun just found it funny, his eyes were full of disdain: "Why? When I talked to you about recognizing your ancestry, you promised to agree to all my requests. I let your daughter marry, and the marriage partner is Jiang Qingying. What are you not satisfied with?"
He sneered, and the laughter sounded particularly harsh in the quiet room: "Qian Shi'an, don't tell me, you want to marry Jiang Huaixu?"
When the name "Jiang Huai Xu" was mentioned, a gleam of light flashed across Qian Shi'an's eyes, and that light was mixed with longing and obsession.
When did she start to like Jiang Huaixu? It was when she saw a few photos of Jiang Huaixu circulating on the Internet. His handsome face and deep eyes made her heart beat fast. Of course, there was another reason, that is, Jiang Huaixu and Chi Feiwan had a close relationship. Seeing Chi Feiwan standing side by side with Jiang Huaixu, she felt jealous like a weed.
In fact, she was very jealous of Chi Feiwan. Even though Chi Feiwan's biological father was very good to her, she was still jealous.
Chi Feiwan has a complete family and three older brothers, but he can only hide in a dark corner like a shadow that cannot see the light.
Once people have a lot of things, they will forget that some things do not belong to them.
Seeing Qian Shi'an's shy look, Chi Shiyun laughed angrily: "Qian Shi'an, you are marrying above your station by marrying Jiang Qingying, and you still dream of marrying Jiang Huaixu? Do you have too many things and forget your identity?"
Qian Shian really disliked the title of illegitimate daughter. Every time she heard this name, she felt like a knife was stabbing her heart.
Although people outside don’t know, many people in the wealthy circle know that the Chi family has an illegitimate daughter.
She was unwilling to accept this. What was wrong with being an illegitimate daughter? Shouldn't she enjoy the life that a normal person should have?
Your statement of sympathy for the illegitimate daughter makes the original wife's child seem ridiculous.
These light words were like a sharp sword, ruthlessly piercing the hearts of children growing up in orthodox families.
It makes the orthodox status that should have been cherished and protected become so fragile and absurd in an instant.
"I can't accept it." Qian Shi'an gritted his teeth, his attitude extremely firm.
Chi Shiyun's face darkened, "Then find a way to accept it. Qian Shian's choice is not yours. If you want your star path to be bright, then do as I say."
"Then can we have a secret marriage?" Qian Shian's face turned pale.
"This is not my decision. If the people in the second branch of the Jiang family are understanding, then you and Jiang Qingying can naturally have a secret marriage. If they are unable to understand you, your marriage with him will be made public.
I heard that women in the Jiang family cannot have their own careers." Chi Shiyun said coldly.
"I accept." Qian Shian burst into tears.
If Qian Mingzhu knew that Chi Shiyun wanted her daughter to sacrifice her own happiness and marry someone she didn't love, she would never have agreed to the deal.
But there is no medicine for regret in this world.
Only unsatisfactory results will make people regret. If it weren't for today's result, Qian Mingzhu would not regret the original transaction.
Chi Shiyun placed several scripts in front of Qian Shian: "This is compensation for you. Remember what to say and what not to say."
After saying that, Chi Shiyun turned and left, leaving behind the desperate Qian Shi'an and helpless Qian Mingzhu.
Qian Shian collapsed on the ground, his heart filled with helplessness and sadness.
She envied everything Chi Feiwan had, but she didn't know that the family love she had was something Chi Feiwan could only dream of but not ask for.

On this quiet and charming night, the stars are dotted like bright gems inlaid in the vast sky.
At the engagement banquet, Chi Feiwan still wore the same dress she wore during the day, but Jiang Huaixu was dressed more formally.
Chi Feiwan waited in front of the barber shop for half an hour. "It's just an engagement party, is it that serious..."
Jiang Huaixu got in the car, "As for that."
Along the way, the breeze blew gently. Chi Feiwan opened the car window, stuck his head out, his hair fluttering in the wind, exuding a faint fragrance.
The lights on both sides of the street are soft and warm.
Finally, they arrived at the engagement party.
The bright lights made the entire venue look like a dreamlike wonderland.
Jiang Huaixu and Chi Feiwan were the last to arrive at the private room.
There were a lot of people in the private room.
Both Chi family families are here.
Except for Old Man Chi and Chi Yizi, all the other people in the Chi family were present. In the Jiang family, only the eldest wife and Old Man Jiang were present.
Jiang Jiayi doesn't like the Chi family, so she won't come to Jiang Huaixu and Chi Feiwan's engagement party, and Jiang Daiyue won't let his mother come either.
Both Jiang Huaixu and Chi Feiwan are satisfied with their marriage, and there cannot be any mistakes.
Here, Chi Feiwan met Jiang Nanmo's husband.
This man has an elegant temperament and deep facial features. It is best to describe him as gentle as jade.
Chi Feiwan and Jiang Huaixu sat aside, listening to the elders discussing wedding matters.
Shen Linxi said: "I will plan the wedding. I will take Wanwan to pick out a wedding dress in a few days."
Yu Zhilan: "Xixi and I will be responsible for the decoration of the wedding room..."
The adults made a lot of arrangements, and Chi Feiwan could only passively accept them. No one asked for her opinion.
No one cared about her opinion, and even Jiang Huaixu couldn't get a word in.
But Chi Feiwan looked around and found that Chi Yizi was not there.
Chi Yizi was not there from the very beginning, but Chi Feiwan did not notice.
Chi Yizi asked Chi Jinshu beside him in a low voice: "Where is the third brother?"
Chi Jinshu was playing with the tissue on the table: "I don't know."
"Does he know I'm getting engaged today?"
"Of course he knew. How could he not know? Mom informed him personally, but he didn't come, and he didn't say he had something to do."
Chi Feiwan seemed to know why Chi Yizi didn't come, but he didn't want to know.
