  Compared to Feng Heng, those 76 pearls were nothing.

  Out of the entire nation, there was no way there was a man better than Feng Heng and those other two. If she could settle down with one of them, she could live gloriously her entire life.

  As she fantasized and planned out her future, Qiao Zhizhuo on the other side was also over the moon upon hearing Feng Heng’s words.

  To even meet the man face to face like this was his fortune.

  And he was saying he was here to ask his granddaughter to marry him?

  Qiao Zhizhuo suppressed his excitement and turned to Qiao Nian and Qiao Qing, “Did young master Feng set his eyes on Niannian?”


  Feng Heng ignored him. Instead, he made a hand gesture, “Bring it up.”


  Just then, the row of guards in black suits walked up.

  Every one of them held onto a tray. They formed a line and walked upwards.

  Everyone peeked into the tray the guards were holding and saw that every single tray contained Pearls of Fortune and Marriage.

  Those with good eyesight could clearly see that all the trays had the pearls lined up 10×10. There were 100 pearls in each tray!

  Then, everyone looked to the back of the line and realized that there was no end in sight!

  Now, everyone was truly petrified.

  “My god, how much money must it have cost to buy these many Pearls of Fortune and Marriage?!”


  “He sure went all out!”


  “I’m so jealous of Qiao Nian. Not only is he so handsome, he’s so generous as well!”


  Everyone was convinced that he was here for Qiao Nian.

  Qiao Nian and Qin Yongmei also waited excitedly for these people to walk up here.

  The head of guards didn’t stop when he neared Qiao Nian. Instead, he walked past her and went to Qiao Qing instead.

  Then, before everyone’s gaze, they placed the 100 pearls from each of their trays into Qiao Qing’s box.

  Qiao Nian and Qin Yongmei were dumbfounded right away. Everyone else was also stunned.

  He Wanqing herself went blank.

  The only person who was composed was Qiao Qing.

  More accurately put, she was so calm it was inappropriate.

  Whether it was the arrival of Qi Yusen, the pearl gifting tradition, or Feng Heng’s proposal, none of those things affected her.

  She sat there lazily, at ease – as if all the clamor that was happening around here were unrelated to her.

  It seemed like she was only there to go through the process forced on by the older generation. Once this was all over, she was going to go home and sleep.

  When the second guard was about to put down the pearls, Qin Yongmei stepped up and stopped him, “Did you guys get the wrong person?”


  The guard chuckled at this, “Ms. Qiao Qing is the apple of our Sect Leader’s eye. If we get that wrong, we wouldn’t be able to remain at the Jing Sect.”


  His words turned Qin Yongmei and Qiao Nian’s faces white.

  The venue erupted into chaos.

  “Oh my god. How romantic! To be the apple of Feng Heng’s eye? That’s the dream of numerous girls!”


  “I admit that I am salty. How is Qiao Qing so lucky?

  Most of the single women were extremely jealous. The adults who had just offended Qiao Qing were now nervous and regretful.

  They only chose Qiao Nian because they thought Qiao Qing had no ties with young master Qi.

  Who knew despite her lack of ties with young master Qi, she was involved with Feng Heng?!

  To know that even if they failed to connect with Feng Heng, if they can form a bond with Feng Heng’s future wife, that would be far more useful than buttering up a UCC student!

  They could only try to think of the situation differently. They prayed that this boss realized that they didn’t give the pearl to Qiao Qing not because they thought lowly of her. On the contrary, they just didn’t want to compete against him for her.
