Chapter 131: The Engagement Ceremony

Two days later, my engagement with Zosi took place as scheduled.

In the past two days, everything has been calm and flustering, except for Zosi, who goes out early and returns late all day, and sometimes has to stay up all night, everything is calm.

I don't know if the calm was maintained by Zosi, or if there was no disturbance at all.

Maybe it's the latter, I don't dare to imagine it anymore -

Sitting in my room in the Furcummings house, dressed in a dazzling white gauze dress, I came back to my senses, stared at the figure of the noble man in the mirror, and finally realized for a long time that it was me.

The door was pushed open, and Zosi, dressed in elaborate and elegant clothes, appeared in the doorway, and he walked slowly, with the ancient and characteristic silver badge of the House of Furcmings pinned to his chest, and his short platinum blonde hair elegantly outlined the family honor, like a prince in the Middle Ages.

He stepped his arm out of me, his eyes rubbed into a tiny glint of light, and smiled softly, "It's our turn." ”

The clenched fingers gradually loosened, and I closed my eyes and slowly stepped over his arm.

According to the rules of the family, the engagement ceremony of the Furkmins family does not need to be open to the outside world, as long as a solemn dinner is held within the family, and the family elders and all members of the family are present to witness.

As soon as they entered the room, there was a lot of applause between the seriously dressed family members on both sides of the long table, and the attendees, both men and women, were all well-bred and well-bred, with black suits, elegant manners, solemn sitting, and indifferent applause, and the standard curvature of the corners of the lips, making the whole engagement banquet look more like a solemn funeral.

Zosi and I walked down the long aisle to the front of the hall on the podium and stood.

Looking up, there were several elders in the family sitting at the front of the stage, among which there was a competition with Zosi for control of the family business. But he was defeated by Zosi, and now the uncle, who has lost power, sat at the long table, and his appearance was really no longer when he was in high spirits, but more vicissitudes than his actual age.

I groaned in my heart, with the character of Zosi. must have deprived my uncle of all his real power, and the status of the elder of his clan that he still retains today is probably only in name only.

As his thoughts wandered, Zosi beside him had already pouted with a standard and official smile, and he said a lot of words with ease, calmness and sophistication, and none of the members or even the family elders in the audience objected, even if it was a little different, I had never seen it on their faces.

I remember that Zosi once said that the elders of the family were once adamantly opposed to the despicable practice of sibling marriages in the noble Furcumens family. Even if we're brother and sister in name. Now it seems that Zosi has not worked hard in vain in the past few years, and it is really convincing that he can make his wings full enough to influence the decisions of the family elders.

Zosi is no longer the Zosi of the past, although I have had this realization for a long time, but compared to the ruthlessness I saw at that time, he now makes me feel more decisive and clever to fight against such people. The odds are only determined.

Even so. I'm going to give it a try too.

Since I am only imprisoned for the rest of my life, then, even if I endure the torture, there are some things that I will have to pay back.

"Qingyu, I want you to believe it. You only need to break free from the confinement in your heart, and the external is nothing. ”

My heart was depressed, who told me this, it was like a kind of redemption, as bright as the sun piercing the dark night.

"Finally. Thank you again for joining us tonight, and may you share the honor with the Flemmings family. ”

Accompanied by the protagonist's final epilogue, the audience burst into applause, announcing the official entry into force of this engagement ceremony.

Is it sad?

From the night I stepped into the Furmings family again, the last thing I wanted was sadness.

Suppressing the tears that almost rose in my eyes, I raised my head and pulled away a faint smile with all my might, as if saying goodbye to the past.

Si Tianzhe, goodbye.

The next morning, as I sat at my dinner table and flipped through this morning's paper, the pages were full of reports about the Funckmins family's engagement banquet last night, which swept the front pages of almost all the newspapers, and the headlines were even more varied and bizarreβ€”I glanced at them indifferently, and I could only think of such adjectives.

"A combination of glory and dignity -- the butroller of the Furcumens family and the little princess of the family held an engagement ceremony last night."

"The dreamy love of a contemporary prince and princess, the perfect marriage between fairy tales and reality."

"The ancient family played the music of love, and the golden boy and the girl composed the pure love of the world."

"A love born from youth, the sound of the piano continues for a lifetime."

The title of the last line caught my attention, and I put down the white porcelain cup in my hand and looked down:

"Last night at the Furcmings family house in New York, USA, the head of the family, Zorsi? Furcumens and his family's little princess Ruori? At the engagement banquet of Furkmins, it is reported that according to the tradition of the Furckmins family, the attendees were all insiders of the Furk family, including the elders of the major families who still enjoy extremely high rights and status in the Furker family.

……

Under the melodious music, the contemporary version of the prince and princess, who represent glory and dignity, slowly stepped into the auditorium, kicking off the dinner and unveiling the mystery of this fairytale dream love.

…… The reporter learned that the hero and heroine of the engagement banquet, Zoxi? Furcumens and Ruori? Furcummings's pure love originated from a piano sound when the two were young, which is now the world-famous song "Romance of Love", Miss Ruori's first piano teacher was served by Master Zoshi, and "Romance of Love" is also the first piano piece taught by Master Zoshi to Miss Ruori. Just like the name of this piano piece, the acquaintance, getting along, and love between the two are also full of romantic feelings.

It is precisely because of this extraordinary piece of music for the two that the gorgeous movement of their love was played.

The dinner went to a high level. At the time of the tide, Master Zoshi walked to the front of the stage and personally showed his rare piano skills, and the gorgeous "Romance of Love" was played leisurely throughout the banquet hall, in the loving eyes of Master Zoshi looking at Miss Ruori, we seemed to see all the bits and pieces they had come along the way, and we believe that the princes and princesses of the present generation will be able to go on happily.

At the same time, we sincerely wish this fairytale love to continue forever. ”

Accompanied by flattering words, each page is accompanied by photos of me and Zosy standing together, smiling gracefully, and pictures of Zosi hanging his head and playing the piano, etc., which is really conclusive evidence, and no one can deny it.

I folded up the newspaper and tossed it aside.

Full of praise, Zosi really knows how to use public opinion to make a big noise, the original family's engagement banquet is not open to the public, and no media reporters were invited to the scene, if it weren't for Zoxi's instructions, today's major pages would never be like this.

Naturally, he is afraid that the world will not know.

I exhaled deeply, calming the sudden emotions that had already happened, and I couldn't hide it.

I looked back, unexpectedly swept over a few words in another newspaper, and hurriedly picked it up and looked at it carefully.

-- "Tensions between the two major families in North America have intensified. ”

"Last night, the relationship between the Stewart family, one of the three major families in North America, and the Furckmins family, which is also one of the three major families, deteriorated rapidly. Flumins convened an emergency meeting of senior officials overnight to respond to the emergency.

The initial cause of the incident was identified as a business rivalry between the two families, and the relationship between the Stu family and the Fock family has been in a hostile situation in recent years, and this outbreak may be reasonable...... However, it is foreseeable that the competition between the two families will cause huge turmoil in the entire North American financial circle, and even affect Europe and even Asia......"

Holding the newspaper tightly, his hands were already drenched with sweat, no wonder Zosi left the venue in a hurry after last night's engagement banquet and never returned all night.

With a trembling wrist against the edge of the table, you don't have to.

Even if I am free and keep Nik safe, the knot in my heart will never be erased, and it will surely become a pull and torment in my life.

Even if the grudge between me and Zosi can be dissolved, but Bella's enmity, I can't help but ask him for an explanation, and the so-called real murderer, all the blood debts, I must pay one of them.

The newspaper is crumpled in the palm of your hand, thank you.

Again, I'm sorry.

Zosie did exactly what he said, and on the third day of our engagement, we rushed back to London, and he did promise me to join the UK branch of the family business.

As the extended RV came to a slow stop, Zosi and I stepped out of the car together, and as soon as we appeared, we were surrounded by a group of media reporters who had been waiting outside the company for a long time.

"Young Master Zoshi, it is said that Miss Ruori will officially enter the business of the Furkmins family, so does it mean that Miss Ruori is also expected to preside over the Furkmins family and become the existence of the second most powerful person in the family?"

"Miss Ruori, in terms of the inheritance of the Furkmins family, may I ask what percentage of the family's inheritance will you inherit......

"Young Master Zoshi, when is your wedding ceremony with Miss Ruori scheduled to take place?"

……

It is conceivable that the first time I appeared together on a formal occasion with Zosi, I became the object of such enthusiasm and competition among media reporters, Zosi hooked the official smile throughout the whole process, did not answer a word, just let the bodyguards around him stop the reporter aside, and walked into the company hall indifferently.

That's the reason behind his insistence on accompanying me into the company this morning.

Do you want to provide material for the media and further promote my relationship with him?

He's really in a good mood. (To be continued......)
