Chapter 867 - 868: Getting Married Next Month
When Shi Xu returned, he saw the few of them slumped on the chairs in the dining room, rubbing their stomachs.
When Mother Shi saw Shi Xu return, she asked, “You’re back. 1’11 get you a bowl of noodles.”
“No need, I’ve eaten outside.” Shi Xu walked to the dining room and steadied himself. “I have something to announce.”
Everyone looked at him.
“Tao Tao and I have already agreed to get married next month. Set an auspicious day and start preparing.”
Even when Father Shi heard his proposal from the private room, he did not react in time.
“You and Tao Tao are getting married? Really?” Mother Shi asked in disbelief.
“It’s true.” Shi Xu nodded.
Shi Xi raised her hand and asked, “Didn’t you say that you didn’t have feelings for each other?”
The last time the Shi family wanted to get engaged to Shi Xu, Tao Yuxuan pretended to be pregnant and ruined it.
“Ever since then, our relationship gradually warmed up.”
“Then I’ll meet the Tao family tomorrow to discuss the marriage?” Mother Shi looked at Father Shi uncertainly.
This matter still had to be decided by Father Shi.
Father Shi didn’t expect that he would really lose his son.
Moreover, he really didn’t want to get involved in the Tao family’s muddy water!
“Follow me to the study.” Father Shi stood up and prepared to have a good chat with Shi Xu.
The two of them chatted for a long time before Father Shi finally agreed to their marriage.

Shi Xi returned to her room and asked Tao Yuxuan what she thought.
Shi Xi, [You’re marrying my brother?]
Tao Yuxuan replied, [Hahaha.]
The message was perfunctory and guilty.
Shi Xi frowned and asked, [Is there a secret?]
Tao Yuxuan quickly replied, [No, no, I just didn’t expect it. I’m going to sleep. Good night.]
She used sleep to avoid being questioned.
Shi Xi did not quite understand.
Forget it, there were many things she didn’t understand.
Seeing that it was getting late, Shi Xi prepared to rest.
However, just as she turned off the lights and lay down, there was a knock on the door.
It was Ning Yu.
“Sister, why are you looking for me?” Shi Xi sat up from under the blanket.
“When is your engagement party with Sheng Yan?” Ning Yu went straight to the point.
“What? This was canceled a long time ago! My engagement with him is no longer valid!” Shi Xi explained desperately. “Let alone an engagement party!” There was nothing between her and Sheng Yan!
“Why not?” Ning Yu’s calm face revealed a trace of confusion.
“Because I don’t like him.” Shi Xi did not expect Ning Yu to come over so late at night to ask about this matter. She said frankly, “He doesn’t like me, and I don’t like him either.”
The two families had the idea of a marriage alliance, but she had gone to the entertainment industry. Sheng Yan had already taken over the power of Shengshi Jewelry, so it was useless for the elders of the two families to have any ideas.
Ning Yu’s eyes were filled with thoughts.
“Did Sheng Yan say something to you?” Shi Xi guessed.
“It’s nothing.” Ning Yu only came to verify the engagement. After getting the answer, she turned around and left.
She closed the door.
Shi Xi’s hand, which was about to reach out to stop Ning Yu, stopped.
She really wanted to gossip about Ning Yu’s relationship!
Sheng Yan was the official supporting role, and there were also countless outstanding male supporting roles, such as Jun Cheng.
Could it be that Sheng Yan had already hooked up with Ning Yu somewhere she didn’t know about?
Was that why Ning Yu came to verify the marriage agreement?
With that thought in mind, Shi Xi found Sheng Yan’s WeChat and wanted to ask.
Shi Xi, [What did you say to Ning Yu?]
Your message has been sent, but the other party has rejected it.
Shi Xi: ?
What did she do?
Why was she blacklisted?
Shi Xi scrolled through the previous chat. They had previously discussed the cooperation and promotion of Shengshi Jewelry.
It was ridiculous..
