Every single car was a limited edition, each one equipped with top-of-the-line features.
The Gu family members could hardly believe their eyes.
Jenny Gu wore a look of utter disbelief and turned to the village chief, saying, "Village Chief, did you hear wrong? How could it possibly be for Cecilia Gu?"
The village chief glanced at Jenny Gu with a half-smile and replied, "I'm not so old and senile that I'd mistake the names, am I?"
Grandma Gu finally snapped out of it. She remembered Cecilia mentioning she was getting married yesterday. At first, she had thought, just like Jenny Gu, that Cecilia’s fiancé was probably some nouveau riche, but she never expected Cecilia would marry into such a wealthy family!
Grandma Gu immediately grabbed Cecilia’s hand, her smile suddenly overflowing with kindness. She said, "Yes, yes, our Cecilia is truly blessed! Grandma had no idea—when did you meet such a rich boyfriend? Really, having a boyfriend and not telling Grandma, just to surprise me!"
Just moments ago, Cecilia Gu and Helen Gu had been completely ignored and even chased out. Now, in an instant, they’d become Grandma Gu’s most beloved granddaughter and daughter-in-law.
Jenny Gu stood to the side, making snide remarks: "Hmph, so what if you have money? Do you really think a rich and handsome guy would go for Cecilia Gu? Fine, the only person willing to marry you is probably some old, ugly, short, hideous bald uncle!"
Before Jenny Gu could finish her sentence, the lead Rolls-Royce’s chauffeur stepped out and personally opened the rear door.
Even the chauffeur was impeccably dressed and carried himself with dignity. So what about the person sitting inside the car?
The next second, a long, elegant leg slowly appeared in everyone's line of sight.
Then, a handsome and devilishly charming face came into view.
Charles Yin stepped out of the car. The moment he looked up, he stunned everyone present!
His unmatched aura of nobility and the kingly presence that radiated from his very bones instantly overwhelmed the crowd.
Cecilia Gu knew just how breathtaking Charles Yin could be, so it was no wonder everyone in the village was left speechless.
Jenny Gu stared in awe, muttering, "No! Impossible!"
Helen Gu was dumbfounded as well.
This man seemed to possess every quality anyone could ever wish for.
Looks, physique, health, wealth, power, status.
Charles Yin helped Grandma Evelyn Yin out of the car. The two of them walked toward Grandma Gu, followed by dozens of servants, each carrying an exquisite box.
Grandma Gu was completely stunned. Not just her—no one in the whole village had ever seen such a scene!
Grandma Evelyn Yin had already spotted Cecilia Gu. The whole family was dressed in their finest, except for Cecilia and her mother, who wore the oldest clothes, sleeves rolled up, clearly just finished working.
Grandma Evelyn Yin frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed and smiled as she walked toward Grandma Gu, saying, "In-law, I’ve come today with my grandson to officially propose. We’ve brought a few small gifts—hope you won’t mind!"
Charles Yin greeted politely, "Hello, Grandma!"
At that moment, the servants behind them opened the boxes, showing Grandma Gu what was inside.
When Grandma Gu saw the boxes filled with rare tonics—ginseng, antler, sea cucumber, and even a pure gold tea set—her eyes nearly popped out.
Even Jenny Gu’s future mother-in-law was stunned!
These things were worth tens of thousands each!
Compared to their own measly thirty thousand, just these tonics were worth hundreds of thousands!
Just moments ago, Jenny Gu’s in-laws had been showing off their Santana 2000 and thirty thousand yuan betrothal gift. Now, their faces turned green with envy.
All their car and betrothal gifts together couldn’t even buy the logo on those cars!
After standing there with her mouth open for ages, Grandma Gu finally came to her senses and hurriedly invited Grandma Evelyn Yin and Charles Yin inside.
Cecilia Gu glanced at Charles Yin in confusion. As he passed by, he gently hooked her fingers with his, locking their hands together and leading her inside.
Cecilia froze, instinctively pulling her fingers away, a little resistant to Charles Yin’s closeness.
"Even if we’re acting, we should at least make it look real," Charles Yin said in a low voice. "After I’ve made you look so good, don’t let anyone see through us."
"Oh..." Cecilia finally snapped out of it and let Charles Yin lead her into the house.
Seeing Cecilia cooperate so obediently, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Charles Yin’s eyes.
It was the first time the two of them had appeared so close in front of everyone, and Cecilia felt a little awkward.
But before she could pull her hand away, Charles Yin would catch it again.
Charles Yin’s fingers were delicate yet strong—exactly what many women liked. But right now, Cecilia really couldn’t bring herself to like them.
Things had already gotten way out of her control, and she had no idea what her greedy grandmother might demand next.
