The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law
Chapter 343 Who is the bridesmaid?
"Dad!" Liu Xiaojing whirled like a butterfly, "How do you think I am today?"
"Hey!" Liu Rongcheng happily responded, "Okay, apart from the bride, my daughter is the most beautiful today!"
Liu Xiaojing smiled happily and said coquettishly: "Dad, do you think I can be the bridesmaid today?"
As early as a few days ago, people got the news that at this grand engagement ceremony, the organizer would select a woman to be today's bridesmaid on site.
At first, people thought it was fake news. Where can I choose a bridesmaid on the spot? How is your character? Do the horoscopes match? Will there be an accident? The more upper-class people are, the more they care about these details.
What's more, this is just an engagement party, not a formal wedding, and generally there is no need for bridesmaids.
But later, the news spread, and the organizers first issued an announcement confirming that it was true.
As a result, the ladies from these wealthy and aristocratic families were all interested.
Selecting a bridesmaid on site is the same as a beauty pageant. What a glorious thing it would be if you were selected at this gathering of wealthy families!
Not only was the selected person herself, her beauty and temperament conquered the audience, but the family behind her was recognized by the organizer.
Almost all families with beautiful unmarried daughters have made careful preparations, especially those second- and third-rate wealthy families who are not top-notch families. This is an excellent opportunity for them to show their faces.
Liu Xiaojing specially ordered this diamond dress just for this opportunity. The dress was designed by a famous European fashion designer and was studded with nine hundred and ninety-nine diamonds.
Because it was a temporary order, time was very tight. In order to wear this dress to attend, Liu Xiaojing was late. That's why she was so angry when her skirt was touched by Li Muchen on the lake embankment.
This piece of clothing is of course very expensive, so expensive that most people can’t even imagine it. But it's nothing to the Liu family.
Rongcheng Group is one of the largest private enterprises in Nanjiang. Liu Xiaojing is the daughter of Rongcheng Group.
In terms of personal assets alone, Liu Rongcheng, chairman of Rongcheng Group, has one of the highest net worths in Qiantang, and is known as the invisible richest man in Nanjiang.
But it is a pity that Liu Rongcheng has no family background.
More than thirty years ago, Liu Rongcheng was just a young carpenter, but he was very business-savvy. He started out as a carpenter and slowly started a wood furniture business. With the rapid development of China's economy in the past few decades, everything from building materials to clothing, from From chemical industry to energy, it is involved in almost all traditional industries, and each industry is doing very well.
Some people say that he is lucky. In fact, luck is also a manifestation of ability. Rather than saying that he is a pig flying in the wind, it is better to say that he has a vision and seizes every opportunity.
But no matter how successful and wealthy he is, compared with those real wealthy families, he lacks some background.
Money can help people, but when the money reaches a certain level, its effect is not as great as imagined.
Moreover, no matter how rich Liu Rongcheng is, he is only one person, and the rich people in the wealthy families can grab a handful. Among wealthy families, the competition is no longer about who ranks higher on the rich list, but who has greater influence. Being able to influence the local economy, urban planning, and even national policies is the foundation of a wealthy family.
In the eyes of a truly wealthy family, Liu Rongcheng is a nouveau riche. Therefore, in the upper class society, his not-so-elegant nickname was circulated—Nanjiang’s No. [-] nouveau riche.
Liu Rongcheng doesn't care about money, but he cares about reputation and influence. So he also attaches great importance to today's gathering.
If his daughter can stand out here, it will be of great help to him and the reputation of Rongcheng Group.
If she is more fortunate, Liu Xiaojing is attracted by other wealthy families, such as the Qian family, the Gao family, the Yuan family, and even the children of the Beijing family, and marries with these families, then the Liu family will get rid of the title of nouveau riche.
This is Liu Rongcheng's wishful thinking.
"Yes! Why not?"
Liu Rongcheng looked at his bejeweled daughter and nodded with satisfaction.
In terms of clothing alone, among the girls here today, no one is more eye-catching than his daughter.
He looked around with some pride at the people present, then walked up to Yuan Shoushan, stretched out his hand, and said with some respect:
"Mr. Yuan, among those here today, you have the highest seniority and the highest reputation. Your words are authoritative! Please comment, is my daughter Jingjing qualified to be the bridesmaid today?"
Liu Rongcheng's words made many people roll their eyes, especially those who also had the opportunity to compete for the title of bridesmaid.
"Tch, I've never seen such a shameless person!"
"The nouveau riche are the nouveau riche. They think they look good if they are covered in diamonds. How vulgar!"
Someone was whispering below, but Liu Rongcheng pretended not to hear. He only cared about Yuan Shoushan's attitude. As long as Yuan Shoushan opens his mouth, even if he only says a few words, it will definitely give his daughter extra points.
Yuan Shoushan didn't like Liu Rongcheng. In his eyes, Liu Rongcheng was a bumpkin. But Liu Rongcheng is rich, very rich!
In this extraordinary period, people like Liu Rongcheng are also the ones the Yuan family needs to win over.
Yuan Shoushan's ambition is not only to destroy the Lin family and teach the Shen family, who are close to the Lin family, a lesson. He wants to reach a higher level and let the Yuan family stand higher. Not to mention surpassing the Qian and Gao families, at least he wants to compete with them. The Gao family is on equal footing.
"Hahaha..." Yuan Shoushan laughed, "Mr. Liu, it doesn't matter if I say this, the organizer has the final say."
Liu Rongcheng also laughed: "Jingjing, come here and meet Uncle Yuan."
Liu Xiaojing came up with her skirt in hand, knelt down in front of Yuan Shoushan and saluted, "I've seen Uncle Yuan before."
Yuan Shoushan nodded: "Okay, the daughter of the Liu family is naturally beautiful, and this dress is also good."
Liu Rongcheng knew Yuan Shoushan was an old fox and praised him a few times, but he had no intention of standing up for Liu Xiaojing. But this was all within his expectation, and a few words of praise would be enough. He smiled slyly and said:
"Jingjing, look, Uncle Yuan has given you his support. Today's bridesmaid is none other than you! Why don't you thank Uncle Yuan quickly?"
Liu Xiaojing said quickly: "Thank you, Uncle Yuan."
Yuan Shoushan's face changed slightly. This was definitely not his original intention, but he did not refute and said calmly: "We have to believe in the organizer's vision."
In this way, it was as if Yuan Shoushan recognized Liu Xiaojing as today's bridesmaid.
The people around me were very angry, but there was nothing they could do. Liu Rongcheng doesn't want face, but they still want face. What's more, the few people who are preparing to compete for the bridesmaid can't compare with the Liu family in terms of financial resources.
People stopped talking and were immersed in the stage performance.
At this time, a famous pianist was playing a soothing piece of music on the stage.
After the song was played, the host came up and introduced the next star.
As time goes by, the stars on stage become more and more sophisticated.
In the eyes of these upper-class people, those popular celebrities at first were nothing more than that. The stars who came on stage later were a bit heavyweight, such as the pianist just now, who enjoyed a high reputation internationally.
After that, those who took the stage were all real big names who rarely performed acupuncture and rarely showed their faces. When they walked onto the stage, even among the celebrities gathering today, they would occasionally exclaim.
This further proves the strength of the organizers.
When the last star who came to join in the fun had finished his performance, the host came on stage and said with excitement on his face after a humorous line:
"Dear guests, I know you are all looking forward to this moment. Our protagonist will soon unveil the mystery and meet you. Before that, let us first reveal another mystery today. I believe you all You all know that we will select the most beautiful princess among all of you to be today’s bridesmaid..."
The host paused.
"After secret observation and scoring by the organizer, it was finally determined that today's bridesmaid is——"
