Chapter 253: The Gu Family's High regard for Jiang Sui!
Chapter 253: The Gu Family's High regard for Jiang Sui!
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.
Adam is one of the most renowned jewelry designers in the world, having won numerous top awards in the jewelry industry, including the AGTA Spectrum Award, the MJSA Visual Award, and the IPDC Pearl Design Competition. His work "Flowing Light" has become part of the permanent collection of the world's leading museum, the Smithsonian Institution.
Now that she's retired, her designs are even more valuable. It's truly astonishing that the Gu family could actually persuade her to design wedding favors for their engagement party.
I've seen people who are extravagant, but I've never seen anyone so outrageously extravagant.
Such a grand gesture startled Jiang Qianhui.
It turns out that Gu Xunjing wasn't the only one who was prepared; the entire Gu family was.
Everyone present, except for the Zhan family, was eager for Jiang Qianhui and Gu Xunjing to get married soon, because they all wanted diamond jewelry designed by the world-renowned jewelry designer Adam.
"Mrs. Gu, your Gu family is too generous. The engagement favors are diamond jewelry designed by Adam. Even royal weddings wouldn't dare to have such a setup."
"Even if it wasn't designed by Adam, giving away diamond jewelry is unprecedented in Country A. It's incredibly extravagant."
"One hundred pounds of gold, and jewelry designed by world-renowned jewelry designer Adam as gifts for guests. Just revealing two details is already astonishing. It's unimaginable how luxurious this engagement banquet must be."
Li Wanyin said elegantly, "Because our Sui Sui deserves the best."
The cake was very gentle, holding Jiang Qianhui's hand. As a top-tier noblewoman, she spoke very gently, but her tone was indeed very firm.
"What a blessing! I wish Young Master Gu and Miss Jiang a long and happy marriage, and may they be forever united in heart."
"May the Gu family's precious son be born safely."
"Although it originated from an accident, it was a beautiful accident."
Those present offered their blessings, proving that money truly can make the world go round.
The Gu family is really willing to spend money on Jiang Qianhui.
Jiang Qianhui was truly stunned by the impact. She was also a heiress from a wealthy family, but this was the first time she had ever seen someone so extravagant.
She said softly and worriedly, "Mrs. Gu, isn't this a bit of an exaggeration?"
Jiang Qianhui dared not deny her relationship with Gu Xunjing. It was originally a cover-up, but this cover-up seemed to be getting more and more exaggerated to her, to the point that she found it unbelievable.
Zhan Yanxun stared intently at Jiang Qianhui, who really had no intention of explaining.
What does she mean?
Standing in the middle of the Gu family, do you really want to become a member of the Gu family?
Zhan Yanxun was furious. He wanted to find Jiang Qianhui and get to the bottom of things, but he didn't want to make a fool of himself.
He turned and left, his face gloomy. Xie Qingyi saw Zhan Yanxun leave and she wanted to leave too. What was the point of staying if she didn't leave now?
Watching Jiang Qianhui live such a glamorous life, watching how the Gu family dotes on her? Or perhaps they'll make a scene and tear things apart, letting others know that their son has been cheated on, bringing shame upon the Zhan family!
Xie Qingyi loved one of the characters so much, how could she do this? She left angrily, turning back before leaving to say defiantly.
"Marrying a divorced woman and making such a big fuss, are you out of your mind?"
Li Wanyin said coldly, "Our old Gu has earned more money than he could spend in several lifetimes. Of course, he'll give his all and be considerate of his only daughter-in-law. Unlike you, so stingy, are you planning to take your money to your grave?"
At this moment, murmurs arose again from the crowd. "The Zhan family, such a wealthy and powerful family, only spent a few hundred thousand on the three gold pieces when they married their first daughter-in-law. Moreover, the wedding was extremely simple and hasty, even less extravagant than a typical family with a little money getting married. It was far too perfunctory and shabby!"
Hearing the discussions, Xie Qingyi left in anger.
Xie Qingyi, who was once very concerned about saving face, has now lost all face.
Jiang Qianhui was naturally happy to have angered the Zhan family to the point of fainting, but how did she suddenly become engaged to Gu Xunjing?
Gu Xunjing, their family is so good, what has she done to deserve this?
Jiang Qianhui was about to tell everyone that she had no intention of marrying Gu Xunjing and would raise the child on her own.
However, Gu Xunjing saw through her intentions. He leaned closer to her and said, "Don't rush to sever our relationship. If Zhan Yanxun can't find out that the report is fake, he can believe it. But if he does find out that the report is fake, we should make them misunderstand that we have a relationship, so that he can't be sure whose child you are carrying. Only in this way can you keep the child in your belly."
Jiang Qianhui certainly knew what Gu Xunjing meant. If Zhan Yanxun believed the report, he wouldn't be able to take the child from her. If it turned out the report was fake, their ambiguous relationship would also prevent him from being sure who the child was, which would be very beneficial to her.
"It's just not fair to treat you like this."
"Zhan Yanxun and I are mortal enemies. I'd be happy to make him furious. Besides, I'm a playboy, so I think it's quite fun. You don't need to feel guilty."
Jiang Qianhui suddenly began to doubt whether the reports about him being a playboy were all false, since he was clearly as innocent as a landlord's foolish son.
The party is over.
"Mrs. Gu, I am truly sorry. The child in my womb is not Gu Xunjing's, and I have no relation to Gu Xunjing."
Jiang Qianhui felt she had to explain to Li Wanyin and Gu Xuanwu; she couldn't deceive them. She couldn't let them think she was about to have a grandson, only to find out it was all a deception and nothing at all.
Jiang Qianhui thought that Li Wanyin would be very angry after she said that, since her expectations had been too high just now. She could tell that Li Wanyin was very happy and was arranging for Gu Xunjing to get engaged to her, probably for the sake of the child.
No wonder she's angry now.
"Madam Gu, I am so sorry, I should have explained earlier."
"No need to explain, we all know that our rascal doesn't have such good fortune. But he likes you, and as his parents, we should help him."
Jiang Qianhui was stunned by Li Wanyin's words. Li Wanyin actually knew that the child in her belly was not Gu Xunjing's. If she knew that, why did she help her so much just now?
Li Wanyin and Gu Xuanwu were not surprised by Jiang Qianhui's pregnancy, because Gu Xunjing had already told them. Gu Xunjing did not hide it from them, because he firmly believed that if they were to be together, he wanted his parents to accept it. There was no need to hide it and let it become a knot in their hearts.
He was very nervous when he spoke. His parents sat there in silence for about a minute before telling him, "We are a family man, and we are about to have a grandson."
At that moment, he realized that his parents had accepted Jiang Qianhui. Since he wanted to be with her, he would pave the way for her. However, he did not expect his parents to support him so much that he did not need to do anything.
