Chapter 913: Chapter 913: Proposing Marriage at the Gate
Leaving the new company headquarters, Zhu Jun drove Li Feng to the gate of the Wang Family’s old residential area.
"Wish you luck." Zhu Jun didn’t stay to watch the spectacle, he just drove away.
Li Feng stood at the entrance of the district, waiting for more than half an hour before a convoy of armored cars specifically for transporting cash arrived slowly.
"Young Master, the items have arrived safely."
Li Feng glanced at these armored cash transport vehicles and directly got into one, passing through the neighborhood to arrive outside the Wang Family’s old residence.
"Master, Li Feng has arrived."
The Wang Family’s butler quickly walked into the Family Head’s study, speaking to Wang Tiandao, who was holding a brush and writing.
"Hm?"
"What is this brat doing here again?" Wang Tiandao furrowed his brows.
The butler looked at Wang Tiandao’s unfriendly expression and cautiously said, "I’m not sure, but Li Feng has brought five armored cash transport vehicles."
"Hm?"
Wang Tiandao looked up at the butler, "Cash transport vehicles, huh. Is that brat planning to use money to win me over?"
"This...!"
The butler really didn’t know how to respond to that.
"Hmph, let’s go. I want to see what this brat is up to. If he thinks throwing money at me will make me relent, huh, I’ll teach him how to behave."
Wang Tiandao snorted, put down the brush in his hand, and left the study directly.
At the moment, the news had spread throughout the Wang Family’s old residence, causing those present to leave their courtyards, ready to watch the show.
"Heh, this Li Feng really is persistent, daring to come here again."
"Exactly, allowing him to become the Wang Family’s live-in son-in-law was already a grace, but who would have thought this guy, not content, wanted to marry Wang Jin’er. does he not understand why the eldest lineage agreed to let him marry in?"
"The eldest lineage made calculations but unfortunately, if Li Feng really married in, it wouldn’t be good. But this guy was not content with marrying in and instead slapped our Family Head’s face by refusing to be a live-in son-in-law and insisting on marrying Wang Jin’er."
"Where would our Family Head put his face, and now Li Feng still dares to show up unabashedly. Let’s watch the show."
The ladies from different branches of the family gathered and started whispering.
Despite being in modern society, families like the Wang Family still retain many traditions, namely the family system.
By law, the Wang Family’s business is inherited by children, daughters included, but in family systems, women do not have inheritance rights. Although the law rules, in reality, many things cannot be done according to the law.
Wang Tiandao wanting Wang Jin’er to inherit the family business is almost impossible. The only possible way is to take in a son-in-law and then have a son with the surname Wang, who then qualifies to inherit his mantle.
This is the only way.
When the Wang and Li families initially negotiated, the other branches strongly opposed Li Feng marrying into the Wang Family because if he did, they would lose their chance to become the Wang Family’s Family Head.
It turns out their worries were somewhat wasted because this illegitimate son from the Li Family refused.
It should be a good thing, but Li Feng shamelessly proclaimed he wants to marry Wang Jin’er. Heh, they certainly are happy to watch a good show.
Now things have gotten to this point, even if Li Feng wants to marry in, it’s no longer possible, because the Wang Family can’t lose its face.
You can’t just marry in because you said so, or marry because you said so. What do you take the Wang Family for?
"What is Li Feng up to with those armored cash transport vehicles, what does he want to do?"
"Heh, he wouldn’t possibly think of using money to bribe our uncle, would he?"
"Haha, if that were the case, that would be great."
"Wang Mingrui, hurry back home, looks like Li Feng is coming over to propose. Come back and watch." A Wang Family member next to him started calling out to bring back those away from home.
"Family Head has arrived."
The Wang Family members watching the scene turned their heads as Wang Tiandao, with a face as dark as water, walked forward, crossing the crowd, and immediately spotted the armored cash transport vehicles in their parking area.
His gaze fell on Li Feng.
"What are you up to?"
Li Feng glanced behind Wang Tiandao, "Jin’er didn’t come?"
"Hmph, you still want to see my daughter, in your next life maybe, and let me tell you, Jin’er has already found someone else. You’d best find somewhere else to hang out."
Wang Tiandao glared at Li Feng.
He thought after a while of not showing up, this guy had given up, but unexpectedly, he was still haunting him.
"Father-in-law, there’s no need to be so impatient, didn’t I say before, I would make you agree to our marriage, and today I’m here to act upon my words."
Li Feng said.
"Oh, act upon your words, what, are you planning to use money to pressure me?"
Wang Tiandao scoffed repeatedly, "You might have sold off the Century Group and made quite some money, but do you think the Wang Family lacks money?"
"Our Wang Family never sells daughters."
Li Feng sighed, "Father-in-law, just because it’s an armored cash transport vehicle, does it mean it’s filled with money, and besides, using money to pressure you, wouldn’t that be self-humiliation?"
"You better know that."
Li Feng looked at the continuously sneering Wang Tiandao.
"Father-in-law, let’s first see my sincerity, as for marrying your daughter, we’ll talk about it later."
"Heh."
"Even if you brought out an Immortal today, it wouldn’t help, I’m not changing my mind."
Wang Tiandao said decisively.
Li Feng directly twisted around, snapped his fingers at his bodyguards, and immediately the bodyguards opened the armored cash transport vehicle doors, heavily armed guards emerged from the compartment, and took out one exquisite briefcase after another from inside.
One by one the briefcases were placed on the ground, a total of more than a hundred.
"Open them all."
"Yes!"
Ten bodyguards stepped forward, each picking up a briefcase, then carefully opened the locks on the briefcases.
"What on earth is Li Feng up to with all these tricks?"
"Who knows, what’s inside all these boxes?"
"What else could be inside the boxes? Money, of course."
"Hmm, isn’t it true that a luggage case like this holds at most a million, even a hundred would only be ten million, that’s a lot, but for marrying our Wang Family’s daughter, it’s far from enough."
"Heh, maybe it’s not money, maybe it’s gold?"
"How could it be gold, if it were gold, it wouldn’t be so light to carry, gold is very heavy, you know."
"Then what else could it be?"
All the Wang Family members looked over curiously.
After a moment, as the codes were unlocked, ten bodyguards stood in a row, each holding up a case with one hand, opening the case lid with the other. Instantly, the sunlight overhead poured into the case.
Immediately, a dazzling light flashed out.
"Hiss, are those diamonds?"
"Such large diamonds."
The eyes of the few wives watching from not far away grew round; for women, there is no resisting the allure of anything shiny like diamonds.
"At least the size of a pigeon egg, no jewelry store in Sea City would have diamonds this large."
"I saw one of these in a magazine, Sea Wave Star, a blue diamond of at least 101 carats, valued at least in the tens of millions of Federation Coin, and priceless on the market."
"And is the one next to it the Lijia State Star?"
"Gulp."
The eyes of several noblewomen were gleaming as they looked at these diamonds.
The ten bodyguards placed the boxes on the ground and then proceeded to open another ten boxes, revealing once again priceless, unique diamond jewels.
"Oh my gosh, could these boxes all be filled with diamonds?"
