The Yin Family's Daughter-in-law Is Honored

Cecilia Gu was feeling conflicted at this moment.

She wanted her grandmother to make things difficult for the Yin Family, so the marriage wouldn't go through, but at the same time, she hoped her grandmother wouldn't make it so hard that she couldn't lift her head.

Truthfully, she knew deep down that this marriage was inevitable—there was nowhere for her to escape.

But subconsciously, she just couldn't bring herself to give in so willingly to fate.

Maybe sensing Cecilia's inner turmoil, Charles Yin's gaze swept lightly across her face, a flicker of something unreadable passing through his eyes.

Charles Yin thought for a moment and softened his demeanor.

Sure enough, Cecilia visibly relaxed quite a bit.

Was she afraid of him? Was it his power and status she feared, or something else?

Charles had intended to tell her not to be nervous, but for some reason, when he opened his mouth, what came out was: "You're always so tense—it's not good for the baby."

Cecilia felt a wave of relief in her heart. She knew that the Yin Family was making such a big deal out of supporting her simply because they were worried her mood might affect the baby in her belly.

Pregnant?!

The entire Gu Family was stunned!

Cecilia Gu is actually pregnant!

"Right now, Cecilia is truly treasured in our Yin Family! Whether the child she gives birth to is a boy or a girl, they will be the heir of the Yin Family," Grandma Evelyn Yin declared, firmly establishing Cecilia’s status.

Grandma Gu, who was about to scold Cecilia, swallowed her words hard after hearing Grandma Evelyn Yin’s statement.

A flush of embarrassment instantly spread across Grandma Gu’s face.

Just yesterday, she’d scolded Cecilia for not being able to get pregnant by a rich man, and today she was slapped in the face by reality.

Grandma Gu swallowed and asked, "So, what brings you here today...?"

Grandma Evelyn Yin didn’t waste words and said directly, "My grandson Charles and your granddaughter Cecilia have always been devoted to each other. Heaven has blessed us with the fourth generation of the Yin Family! Since the children are willing, I have no objections. I’ve brought the dowry list today: 8.88 million in cash, a villa worth 100 million, which will be transferred to Cecilia when the child is born; and some jewelry, stocks, and bonds, all registered under her name. I hope you won’t find it too modest."

Modest? How could anyone call this modest?

This dowry easily exceeds 200 million!

Grandma Gu’s eyelid twitched hard when she heard about the 8.88 million in cash.

And when she heard about the villa worth 100 million, her eyes lit up instantly.

She automatically ignored the fact that Cecilia was already pregnant, and even more so her punishment of Cecilia a month ago.

"You’re too kind! I also think these two are a match made in heaven. As an elder, I couldn’t be happier. Even if you gave us nothing, I wouldn’t object," Grandma Gu said, grinning from ear to ear.

"Good, since you have no objections, let’s settle the wedding then," Grandma Evelyn Yin continued. "The birth of the Yin Family Heir is a major event, so I’ve set up an account with a lawyer. As long as the child is born safely, not a cent will be missing, interest included. Here’s 200,000 in cash for you to use now. If it’s not enough, just let me know."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone stepped forward and placed a small box in front of Grandma Gu, opening it right before her eyes.

When the fresh, bright red bills appeared in front of Grandma Gu, her face bloomed with delight.

"Wonderful, wonderful, you’re so generous! Then I’ll gladly accept it," Grandma Gu replied, overjoyed as she took the box.

Meanwhile, Jenny Gu’s family and her mother-in-law’s family had already been squeezed out into the courtyard—there was no place for them inside anymore.

Even though they’d come today to propose marriage too, seeing the extravagance and the grand display, Jenny Gu was practically driven mad with jealousy. The man Cecilia found wasn’t just outrageously handsome—he was outrageously rich! She absolutely couldn’t stand it!

Jenny Gu’s mother-in-law’s family looked like they’d been slapped in the face, their cheeks burning, unable to even lift their heads.

The girl they all looked down on had suddenly become the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family. This transformation was just too much for them to accept.
