Li Tingchuan said this.

Shen Ruoyan vaguely guessed something, and she nodded: "Well, I believe you, can you give it to me now?"

Li Tingchuan put both phones in her hands.

They had already shared the lock screen password.

When the two of them are together, they just throw their phones around so the other can use them whenever they want.

Shen Ruoyan opened her phone, and the screen was full of recommendations from major portals, all of which were news about Li Tingchuan and Ye Shuqing's upcoming engagement. The date for the engagement banquet was set, on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, more than half a month away.

Ye Shuqing.

The eldest daughter of the Ye family.

She is the wife chosen by the old man and the old lady of the Li family for Li Tingchuan.

They are truly a perfect match!

Shen Ruoyan couldn't stop shaking all over.

The heart was beating hard.

Even though she knew Li Tingchuan didn't know about it, she still felt uncomfortable and her breathing became rapid.

He was originally unattainable!

Only a lady from a top wealthy family like Ye Shuqing is qualified to become his wife.

And she...

Never worthy of him.

Li Tingchuan saw that she was in pain and hugged her distressedly: "Yanyan, don't be like this, Yanyan, I really didn't know anything. It must have been grandma who did it. I will clarify the news immediately. I did see that Ye Shuqing. I don't like her, I don't have any feelings for her at all. Yanyan, I only like you..."

As he said this, he picked up his cell phone and called Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu saw that it was his boss calling, and instantly guessed what his boss wanted to do. He was overwhelmed, so he answered the call with gritted teeth: "Boss Li."

Li Tingchuan's tone was very bad: "Now, immediately, right away, contact the group's public relations department to clarify the news of my engagement with Ye Shuqing."

How could Jiang Yu have that authority? He said in embarrassment: "Boss Li, this... I'm afraid it's not possible. The news was released by the old lady. Who in the group dares to disobey her? You asked me to contact the public relations department, but even if I did, my colleagues in the public relations department wouldn't dare to do it. The person who tied the bell must untie it. You have to discuss it with the old lady first. Only when the old lady gives the order, the people below dare to move."

Li Tingchuan was furious!

But think about it and it's really the case.

He hangs up.

I was extremely upset: "Yanyan, let's make our relationship public first, okay?"

Shen Ruoyan's mind was in a mess.

Feeling uncomfortable all over.

After hearing Li Tingchuan's words, she quickly calmed down.

After thinking about it.

She looked at his face and said, "Tingchuan, tell me, does Miss Ye know about this?"

Li Tingchuan frowned and immediately understood her concerns.

Shen Ruoyan continued, "If Miss Ye didn't know about it, it was arranged by her family. Then who do you think was the first to bring up the marriage between the two families? It was probably your grandmother. Your family proposed the marriage. If Miss Ye didn't know about it, wouldn't it be a slap in her face if we made our relationship public and denied the news of your engagement to her? She would be too innocent.

"Why not try to contact her first, if she really doesn't know. Let her deny the engagement first, she can at least save face. The daughter of a noble family cares most about her reputation. What will the Ye family do if she is slapped in the face?

“I don’t want you to offend the Ye family because of me.

"I don't want innocent people to be hurt because of the fight between you and your grandmother."

Shen Ruoyan's considerations were reasonable in every way.

Once they made it public, Ye Shuqing would inevitably be labeled as a third party, a mistress, and someone who interfered with other people's relationships. The marriage was proposed by the Li family, and the face was also slapped by the Li family. With these two people doing this, the hatred between the Li and Ye families became greater.

Li Tingchuan's heart ached: "Yanyan, you are always so sensible. The more you are like this, the more distressed I feel. My grandma is too much. She is simply..."

"I'm fine." Shen Ruoyan seemed calm, but in fact she was extremely upset and was just trying to be calm. "I've said before, as long as you and I are of the same mind, I will never betray our relationship. Your grandma is unwilling to accept me, so it's within my expectations that she will resort to some tricks. I'm mentally prepared. You should have Ye Shuqing's contact information, right? Call her first and deal with the current matter, and we can talk about other things later."

They are all in this circle, and are in the same small range at the top of the pyramid of the Beijing wealthy circle, so they do have contact information.

Li Tingchuan nodded: "Well, I'll contact her."

Ye Shuqing didn't expect to receive a call from Li Tingchuan so soon. His voice sounded good: "Mr. Li?"

Li Tingchuan turned on the speakerphone and went straight to the point: "Ms. Ye, I'm sorry to bother you. I want to ask you, are you aware of your engagement with me?"

"Of course I know what Master Li said. Didn't you see the Weibo I posted?" Ye Shuqing smiled and said, "This marriage was proposed by your father and mother, who personally brought people to our house. My parents were very satisfied and agreed. Your family even gave the betrothal gifts and set the date for the engagement party. With our background, can we choose our marriage?"

“From the day I came of age, I knew that my marriage was not my decision.

“But fortunately, I like the person my parents chose.

"Mr. Li, since we are about to get engaged, shouldn't we have more contact? There is still one day left in the holiday, and my friend has just opened a new club. Let's go and support it together tomorrow, okay?"

Li Tingchuan's attitude was extremely cold and indifferent: "The daughters of noble families all value their reputation. The engagement was decided by my grandmother. I already have someone I love, and I'm afraid I'll let Miss Ye down. I hope Miss Ye can make a statement to clarify. If I do it, I'm afraid it will hurt Miss Ye's face and the harmony between the two families. The responsibility for this matter lies with my family, so I just owe you a favor. If you can be of use to me in the future, I'll repay you a favor."

Ye Shuqing's expression changed, and she laughed contemptuously: "Humanity? Master Li probably hasn't seen the situation clearly. If you say so, then the Weibo post announcing your engagement should not have been posted by you. You don't even have a Weibo account, what can you use to fight against your family? Your beloved? That's too funny. For people like us, it's a blessing to meet someone we like when we get married. If we can't meet someone we like, it's fate.

"Mr. Li, I seem to have told you just now that my parents are very satisfied with you, and I am satisfied too.

"I don't care how many women you've had before. Once you're engaged to me, you're mine. I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes. You'd better get rid of those little demons around you. The Li family is big and powerful, and our Ye family is not a pushover. If I knew that you were engaged to me and still had an affair with other women, I would not tolerate it.

“If I’m unhappy, my parents will be unhappy, and the entire Ye family will be unhappy.

"Our two families are united in marriage, and we will prosper together and suffer together. Our family will not make things difficult for the Li family. But the restless women around you are not so sure. I wonder if you can become enemies with your grandparents and the entire Ye family for the sake of women?

"Also, you called me personally and asked me to issue a statement to clarify the news of your engagement. This is already a slap in my face. I advise you to think carefully before you do anything. Do you want to damage the harmony between our two families for a woman who is not presentable enough?"

Ye Shuqing didn't know who Li Tingchuan's so-called beloved was. But since the Li family didn't agree, she probably wasn't some lady from a rich family. She was just a cheap thing that used her beauty to please men. She even dreamed of flying up the social ladder and competing with her for the position of Li's young mistress? She was overestimating herself!
