Zhang Xuetao turned his head and said softly:

"Ripples, father and Uncle Duan have their intentions, we just have to be obedient, don't worry too much, I have a sense of proportion in my own body."

"Okay, then you can't drink today, just pretend."

"I see, little butler!"

Zhang Xuetao said dotingly, almost vomiting the ripples.

Just as the car stopped, the driver reminded the two:

"Young Master Zhang, Miss Duan, it's here!"

Then someone opened the car door, Zhang Xuetao took the lead in getting out of the car, and then stretched out his hand and helped the ripples out, surrounded by a circle of people, who were the guards arranged by Duan Zongqing, afraid that someone would take advantage of the chaos to do something.

There are a lot of people around, the door is surrounded by three layers of inner and outer three floors, and there are reporters holding cameras, flashing flashes constantly, and there are fireworks displaying, in short, the two protagonists are welcomed into the hotel.

The people who had already arrived with the post all looked at the talented and beautiful couple with smiles on their faces.

Zhang Xuetao wore a white three-piece suit today, with a pair of white handmade leather shoes on his feet, which perfectly showed his figure and was very noble, making him handsome and extraordinary.

Ripple is wearing a fishtail slim dress with white lace and dark flowers, wearing a set of sapphire jewelry, her good figure is undoubtedly revealed, and the slightly curled wavy hairstyle makes her have a unique exotic style, standing beside Zhang Xuetao, she is not blocked from the light at all.

Ripple's dress is just to suppress Zhang Xuetao, she didn't plan to let everyone think that Zhang Xuetao could pass her.

"The ripple girl is so beautiful today!"

Zhang Fenglin smiled and said to Duan Zongqing beside him.

"Xuetao is not bad! The two of them stand together and do more than one! ”

Duan Zongqing is very good at talking.

"My children are all debts, and I hope they can mature after they get engaged and take over the burden from my hands as soon as possible."

"Yes! My daughter has no mother since she was a child, I grew up pampered, and I laid down the whole south, just so that she can have a stable growth environment.

In the future, these must be left to Ripples, your kid can't bully my daughter, otherwise I don't want to. ”

"Oh, don't worry! If Xue Tao dares to be sorry for the ripples, I will be the first to spare him. ”

Zhang Fenglin immediately assured.

"Okay, I believe in you!"

After the two of them went back and forth, Ripple and Zhang Xuetao also walked in front of the two, and the next thing was to announce their engagement.

The master of ceremonies immediately came on the stage and presided over a Chinese and Western engagement ceremony, and after the ceremony, Ripple changed into a red thorn phoenix cheongsam, greeted the guests one by one, and was busy, and Zhang Xuetao on the other side was in the same situation.

The two met the distinguished guests separately for a while, and toasted together for a while, until the sun went down, and the engagement ceremony of the day ended successfully, and they waited for the newspaper tomorrow.

Zhang Xuetao is still a gentleman and sent Ripple back to Duan Dashuai's mansion first, although the two are engaged, they still abide by the rules.

Although Zhang Fenglin hinted that his son had better cook raw rice and mature rice, he had never left anyone's side, Zhang Xuetao had no chance, and he didn't dare.

"Brother Xuetao, I told you not to drink today, you still drink, this is not good for your wounds, don't go out these days, you must rest at home, I will go to see you when I have time."

Ripple said worriedly.

"Thank you Sister Ripple for your concern, I'm really tired, I'm going to take a day off tomorrow, you're not tired today, you don't have to come to see me, when you're rested, I'll ask you to go to the lake again."

Zhang Xuetao's face was a little red, and he looked like he was drinking, but Ripple knew that he had a fever again.

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Xuetao, go back quickly!"

After the two reluctantly said goodbye, Ripple turned around and entered the Marshal's Mansion.

After the engagement ceremony, the matter of Ripples going abroad to study was put on the agenda, although Duan Zongqing was reluctant to give up, but there was no shortage of preparations, people, money, and things were carefully selected, for fear that his daughter would go abroad and be wronged.

When he was almost ready, Duan Zongqing called everyone to his study and specially instructed him again.

"Ripples, this time when you go out, in addition to studying, you are also avoiding the chaos within the Xia Kingdom, and when I take care of all the trivial matters here, you will come back."

"Yes, Father! It's just that you also have to take care of your body and don't get too tired. ”

Ripple said with a smile.

"I know."

Immediately, Duan Zongqing turned his head to the autumn cicada and said:

"This time I went abroad, I can't give you too much money, so as not to Zhang Fenglin notice something, but I will give you a sum of money every month in the name of living expenses.

So in the early stage, you can bring your own dowry to the past, how much you can earn depends on your own ability, I don't interfere and you don't need to hand it in, I am only responsible for escorting you at home, and you have to rely on yourself abroad. ”

"Don't worry, sir! I'll be careful. ”

"Dongqing, your mother is a foreigner, you have an advantage in this regard, go out and take care of Miss and yourself, contact me if you have anything."

"Yes, sir!"

Dong Qing responded with a smile, she was finally able to go to her mother's hometown to see.

On the other side, Zhang Xuetao's situation was not very good, because the wound did not heal, he reluctantly participated in the engagement ceremony, and drank alcohol, the wound did not heal for a long time, and he still had a repeated fever, and there was no time to cultivate feelings with ripples.

Ripple went to see the other party twice, but Zhang Xuetao had an idea and couldn't implement it, so in the end he could only watch the duck fly to his beak.

Ten days later, Ripples took people on a cruise to country Y, and said goodbye to her father and fiancé with tears.

Ripple waved his sleeves and left the Xia Kingdom without taking away a trace of clouds, without any worries, Duan Zongqing began to forcefully subdue the other forces in the south, and those who were willing to submit were scattered and incorporated into different teams, and those who were unwilling were directly killed with a stick, and he didn't have the strength to slowly grind.

During this period, Duan Zongqing and Zhang Fenglin also organized many joint actions, targeting those deep-rooted family valves, a few families were happy and some were worried, and Zhang Xuetao was busy making contributions, but he didn't think about finding Yun Siyu anymore.

Yun Siyu is very good at doing things, after she arrived at the foreign hospital in Nanhu, she completed all the formalities, and on the night of Zhang Xuetao's engagement, she called him.

"Zhang Gongzi, are your injuries better?"

"I've gotten better, I've been recuperating since I got home, and I haven't been able to thank you in person."

"I know you're busy! And I forgot to congratulate you on your happy engagement! Miss Duan must be a big beauty, I can think of the headlines in the newspaper tomorrow. ”

Zhang Siyu's words were sour.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Xuetao was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to explain.

"Zhang Gongzi, I just felt it, I didn't mean anything else, in addition to greeting you, I also want to thank you when I make this call."
