Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!-Chapter 309: Large-Scale Face-Slapping at the Engagement Ceremony (Part 34)
Nalan Ye Jue still had a calm expression, his smile faint, as if the engagement ring he gave to Qin Xin was no different from an ordinary gold ring used by regular families for engagements.
He reminded the stunned emcee, "Get started."
The emcee blinked hard as the brilliance of the purple diamond dazzled his eyes: "Next... please exchange tokens..."
Nalan Ye Jue smiled and placed the purple diamond on Qin Xin’s finger.
Qin Xin took a slight breath.
This man wasn’t just skilled in measurements; he even got the exact size of her finger!
The ring couldn’t have been a more perfect fit.
The next moment.
The man’s clear voice sounded by her ear: "I, Nalan Ye Jue, am willing to marry Qin Xin. I have no grand speeches."
He paused, his tone becoming steady and powerful: "However, I want to share a tradition of our Nalan Family with everyone here—men of the Nalan Family marry only once in their lives and never divorce."
The entire venue fell silent for a moment.
The next second.
Thunderous applause erupted wildly.
It lasted for a full minute!
The words of the Nalan Emperor were incredibly moving.
It seemed simple, but upon careful thought, wasn’t this equivalent to saying he only recognizes Qin Xin as his woman in this lifetime, never to betray, never to divorce?
In today’s society, with such a high divorce rate, a man willing to make such a promise to a woman is as rare as a unicorn.
What kind of engagement fairy tale is this? It’s so touching!
On stage, even Qin Xin did not expect this and was momentarily dazed.
She thought he was merely fulfilling an engagement established by their elders, but such a solemn promise? It carried such heavy weight!
Never to divorce...
Never to divorce...
She was still in shock.
By her ear, the man’s voice, tinged with amusement, sounded: "Little wife, shouldn’t you put the ring on your husband too?"
Qin Xin snapped back to reality, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Looking at the man’s slender fingers extending toward her, her face grew even hotter.
She slipped the simple platinum ring onto Nalan Ye Jue’s finger and was about to withdraw her hand when the man tightly gripped it: "Isn’t my little wife going to say something to her husband too?"
Qin Xin: "..."
Nalan Ye Jue enjoyed watching her, usually so composed, blush, and felt even more delighted: "Just teasing you."
He took the microphone: "My wife says she agrees with my previous statement. Yes, that’s it."
Qin Xin initially thought he was going to help her out, say a few courteous words to thank the guests.
Who knew this cunning man would actually dig a hole for her!
When did she agree with him?
Does it mean she has to never divorce either?
What if... what if he bullies her in the future?
As if seeing through the young woman’s thoughts, Nalan Ye Jue softly whispered in her ear: "Silly girl, I won’t bully you..."
With the ceremony complete, the crowd cheered, champagne flowed, and with music playing, there was singing, dancing, and drinking.
"Wen Rou, why don’t you eat something?" Mrs. Qin looked at her tenderly.
Qin Wenrou sulked in a corner of the sofa, refusing to eat or drink.
"Today is your sister’s engagement; behaving like this isn’t good..." Mrs. Qin advised again.
Qin Wenrou, holding in her anger, finally burst out, her voice low yet tinged with madness: "I don’t care if it’s good or not! You are biased! You let Qin Xin marry into such a good family, but what about me! Aren’t I allowed to be upset?"
Mrs. Qin was momentarily at a loss, sighing repeatedly: "Ah, silly child, you don’t understand, you really don’t understand, I’m doing this for your own good. Actually, your sister marrying into the Nalan Family might not necessarily be a good thing..."
Qin Wenrou immediately perked up.
What did she mean it might not be a good thing?
If it’s not a good thing, then it’s a bad thing, right?
Her instinct told her Mrs. Qin was hiding a secret from her!
