Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After Lin Dong left the house, he took a taxi to the Qiao family’s house.
Soon, they arrived at the Qiao family’s villa.
In the living room of the villa, the one sitting at the head of the table was the Qiao family’s old man, Qiao Guoting.
Other than him, there was also a woman wearing the CEO’s uniform with a cold aura.
This woman’s skin was as fair as snow, and her looks were even better than Sister Bai Jue’s.
She had a perfect figure. A pair of beautiful legs, wrapped under the short skirt of the OL uniform, were now slanted, and there were no gaps between her legs.
This was Qiao Xue, the person on Lin Dong’s marriage contract, the number one beauty in Jianghai City.
Qiao Xue’s mother, Chu Yunxiu, was also present, and she was frowning as she sized up Lin Dong.
“Lin Dong, you’re finally here. A few days ago, I received a call from your master, Daoist Qingshan, saying that you were coming to Jianghai” Qiao Guoting stroked his beard and smiled.
“Now that you’re here, don’t delay any longer. He could go and get his marriage certificate with Snowy today.”
As soon as he said this, everyone’s expression changed drastically.
Qiao Xue hurriedly said, “Grandpa, what era are we .in now? Why are we still having this matchmaker’s appointment? I’m not getting married!”
She was unwilling to marry a complete stranger, even if it was her grandfather’s order.
Beside her, Qiao Xue’s mother, Chu Yunxiu, also said in disdain,
“I’ve seen this person’s information. He has a high school education and has never even gone to college. Staying in the mountains all the time.
“Old Master, you’re ruining Xiaoxue by marrying such a trash!”
Lin Dong, who had originally come to break off the engagement, had wanted to talk to her in a friendly manner. She did not expect Qiao Xue’s mother to say such a thing.
She had called him trash right in front of him.
Lin Dong said unhappily, “Auntie, this is our first time meeting, right? You don’t know me, I don’t know. Why do you think I’m a good-for-nothing?”
“Isn’t this trash? You haven’t even studied in university, but you think you can gain a foothold in the city?”
“You’re not even qualified to apply for our family’s security guard. With this, if you aren’t trash, then what are you?”
“Alright, I understand. So this is how you judge a person.”
“But Auntie, what I want to say is that I’m actually here today to break off the engagement!”
“Break off the engagement?!” Lin Dong’s words shocked everyone.
Qiao Xue’s face was filled with uncertainty. She was the most beautiful president of Jianghai Business Group and graduated from a famous foreign university in business administration. And this country bumpkin in front of him had never even gone to university, and he actually said that he wanted to break off the engagement?
What right did he have?
If you want to break off the engagement, I, Qiao Xue, should be the one to propose it!
Chu Yunxiu was also stunned for a moment. Then, she curled her lips and said, “Brat, are you trying to please the crowd with your sensationalization? Are they deliberately trying to attract our attention?”
“If that’s the case, you’re too naive! We’ll give you 500,000. Leave quickly. And then announce to the public that it was because you were fooling around outside and were kicked out by our Xiaoxue!”
Qiao Guoting glared at his daughter-in-law, Chu Yunxiu, and said in a deep voice, “Shut up. Can you stop talking?”
Hearing Qiao Guoting’s scolding, Chu Yunxiu shut her mouth.
As for Qiao Guoting, he looked at Lin Dong and said with a pleasant expression,”
“Lin Dong, don’t worry. I’ll help you. No one could break this engagement.”
“Grandpa Qiao, Lin Dong is here to thank you for your love. However, I did come here today to break off the engagement. Qiao Xue and I didn’t know each other before. Forcing a melon isn’t sweet. I think it’s better to break off the engagement. It’s good for both Qiao Xue and me.”
“If you’re afraid that I’ll affect the Qiao family’s reputation, you can announce to the public that Qiao Xue kicked me out!”
Lin Dong said it very sincerely and seriously, and it didn’t seem like he was joking.
It was not like what Chu Yunxiu said.
Seeing this, Qiao Guoting sighed.
“Ugh, forget it, forget it. Since the two of you are unwilling to get married, how can an old man like me forcefully twist the two of you together…”
Qiao Guoting was about to agree to break off the engagement.
However, at this moment, a surprising voice sounded.
“I don’t agree to the annulment!”
This voice caused another wave of shock.
Because the person who said this was Qiao Xue!
Lin Dong didn’t understand. “Miss Qiao, what do you mean? Previously, you were the one who said that you didn’t agree to this engagement. Now that you’ve broken off the engagement as you wish, why aren’t you willing?”
Qiao Xue stared at Lin Dong coldly and arrogantly, looking down on him.
“I’ve decided. I’ll give you half a year to pursue me. If you perform well, I can agree to marry you. However, if you can’t enter my eyes, I’ll let you go. In that case, I’ll kick you out.”
After hearing this, Lin Dong understood that this woman’s pride was too strong.
No one was allowed to break off the engagement, only she was allowed to break off the engagement!
Lin Dong was a little unhappy, so he turned to look at Qiao Guoting.
“Old Master Qiao?”
Lin Dong hoped that Elder Qiao would agree to break off the engagement, but Elder Qiao laughed and said,
“Lin Dong, I want to see you get Xiaoxue. After half a year, when you get married, hurry up and have a baby. When the time comes, our Qiao family will be under the same roof for four generations. Oh right, I’ve already thought of what your child’s name will be…”
Lin Dong sighed. She did not expect it to be so difficult to break off the engagement!
Elder Qiao was even more ridiculous. He had even thought of a name for his child with Qiao Xue.
As for Qiao Xue, she was even more overbearing.
At this moment, she took out her phone and called her secretary.
“Xiao Yu, announce something for me!”
“Just say that I, Qiao Xue, have a fiancé named Lin Dong!”
The secretary on the other end of the phone was shocked. There were so many handsome young men in Jianghai who were pursuing her president that they could line up all the way to the suburbs.
Everyone, including the Huang family’s Young Master Huang, was pursuing him. However, the CEO had announced that she already had a fiancé.
Her fiancé’s name was Lin Dong?
This Lin Dong, who was he!?
Secretary Xiao Yu couldn’t imagine how much of an earthquake it would cause in Jianghai shopping mall when the news of her CEO having a fiancé was announced…
