The most crucial part, the gift from Su Chen, was still bought with Qin Keren's money.
Have Su Chen pay for it?
It's estimated that he could at most pull out two thousand yuan.
Qin Keren had not delved deeply into calligraphy.
But her father liked calligraphy, and she had picked up some knowledge from being exposed to it.
This piece of calligraphy, at a glance, was worth a fortune.
No wonder her father was so adamant, going so far as to invite all his relatives and friends over to arrange her engagement.
A national treasure-level piece of calligraphy was enough to impress her father.
Moreover, there was the matter of the connection with Dongyin Country behind the other party.
Qin Keren's family was also in business.
But mostly they were involved in import and export.
If they could establish connections with that powerful family in Dongyin Country, it would greatly benefit her father's business.
Honestly, even if Su Chen was really a president made up by Qin Keren.
He probably couldn't afford this painting worth tens of millions.
It seems, his opponent is somewhat formidable.
"Keke, I think I recognize him, isn't he from your company?" Just then, Qin Keren's third aunt suddenly squinted and said.
Qin Keren shuddered at these words.
She had a bad feeling.
Her aunts rarely visited her company, but it wasn't impossible.
If someone recognized Su Chen's identity.
That would be the end.
"Young man, could you tell us what you do for work?" Her third aunt's gaze began sizing up Su Chen.
Su Chen didn't remember Qin Keren's third aunt.
Qin Keren quickly thought through it in her mind; her third aunt shouldn't recognize Su Chen.
Her saying this, was very likely trying to trick Su Chen.
But, Su Chen didn't know.
Facing the inquiring gaze of the third aunt, Su Chen remained composed.
He slowly said, "I am a salesperson in Yimena's sales department, working under Keke."
Wow!
As soon as Su Chen spoke.
There was an uproar in the entire hall.
Especially those aunts, all of them shockingly agape.
Qin Keren was young, beautiful, and also the vice-president of a listed company, a classic example of a rich and beautiful woman.
Everyone thought that Qin Keren's boyfriend, if not some wealthy young master, should at least be a senior executive of a big company.
But unexpectedly, Su Chen was just a low-level salesperson.
And he even worked under Qin Keren.
This is equivalent to…
A pretty boy attached to a rich beautiful woman?
Qin Keren was stunned too.
She never expected Su Chen to actually tell the truth.
Her aunts were extremely power-driven.
Knowing that Su Chen was just a lowly salesperson, they would probably be even more against them being together.
"Moreover, the money for this gift was still provided by Keke." Amidst everyone's astonishment, Su Chen threw out another bombshell.
Not only is he just a lowly salesperson, even the gifts for visiting his mother-in-law were paid for by his girlfriend.
It's unknown where this guy got the face to spill the truth.
For a moment, everyone's expression turned playful.
Only Qin's mother had an extremely ugly expression.
"Keren, even if you don't agree with my arrangements, you didn't have to find such a person to disgust me, right?" At this moment, a middle-aged man slowly walked down from upstairs.
It was none other than Qin Keren's father.
Qin Youwei!
He had actually been at home all along.
The reason he didn't attend was actually to give Su Chen a warning.
He was monitoring every move in the hall through surveillance.
When he learned that Su Chen was just a lowly salesperson, he couldn't hold back anymore.
Looking at the grim-faced Qin Youwei, Qin Keren opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but at this moment, what else could she say?
She was extremely regretful.
She knew she shouldn't have let Su Chen pretend to be her boyfriend.
She clearly knew that this guy was unreliable.
Regrettably, she could only blame herself for being too naïve.
"Uncle, I have some disagreement with your point of view," Su Chen, however, calmly met Qin Youwei's gaze.
Qin Youwei disdainfully glanced at Su Chen and said, "Oh? What qualification do you have to speak here?"
"Just because, I like Keke, and Keke likes me too," Su Chen said, pulling Qin Keren's hand.
Seeing Su Chen's action, a hint of a smile appeared on Qin Youwei's face.
Shaking his head, he said: "Kid, you're just a petty salesperson, the money you earn in a month isn't even enough to buy a bag for my daughter Keren, what grounds do you have to like her? Young man, pursuing excellent women is a man's nature, but you should also be clear about your own capabilities, whether you deserve such an excellent woman!"
Hearing Qin Youwei's words, Qin Keren couldn't take it anymore.
She gritted her teeth and said, "He may not have money, I do! I can support myself, I can even support him."
"You have? Just with a small vice-president position in a company? Keren, you're not that young anymore, I agreed at the time to let you go out and venture, but what renown have you made? After so long, you're just a vice-president, and even if you can one day become the president, what then? You will forever be working for someone else. Listen to dad, agree to the engagement dad arranged for you, then inherit the family business, this is what you should do!" Qin's father shook his head.
Indeed, Qin Keren's current position was enviable to many.
Almost at the peak of life.
Living in a villa, drawing an annual salary of several million.
Alas.
In the eyes of Qin's father.
An annual salary of several million?
Simply trivial.
Didn't you see the painting they brought, worth tens of millions?
"No, I don't want this!" Qin Keren painfully shook her head.
But in her heart, she knew.
She actually had no power to resist.
Her father's decisions, she had no way to change.
"Young man, I know you are very unwilling and perhaps very angry, but these are the rules of this world, only the strong are worthy of excellent women, someone like you should just find a random female salesperson in your company to marry and have children, that's the best choice, my daughter Keren is not someone you can match," Qin's father no longer paid attention to the near-crumbling Qin Keren, and addressed Su Chen instead.
Su Chen heard this and laughed.
He wasn't worthy of Qin Keren?
Qin Keren is excellent, but compare her to the Queen of the Yelu Fei Kingdom?
Compare her to the Princess of Kansas?
Even Lang Sha wanted to be his woman.
"Young man, I know, you might think what I said was too simple and crude, but this is the reality, with just one random piece of calligraphy, you couldn't afford it even if you worked for ten generations," Qin's father continued to strike at Su Chen.
It wasn't that he was deliberately targeting Su Chen.
Rather, he hoped that Su Chen would know when to retreat.
