Chapter 130 Dowry of 5
Tian Zhenzhen spoke with great confidence, as if the Hu family was nothing to her.
Her words left many people present speechless, drawing skeptical and disdainful glances.
Even Hu Wenhua looked at her.
Hu Wenhua knew about Tian Yunying's family situation. Judging from his cousin's demeanor, Hu Wenhua even suspected that Tian Yunying hadn't told him the truth before.
How come there's someone with such a strong presence among her relatives?
The aura of authority emanating from him was even stronger than that of his mother, as if the Hu family was not even worth her attention.
Tian Yunying hesitated for a moment, wanting to refuse. It wasn't that she thought Tian Zhenzhen was meddling, but rather that she felt Tian Zhenzhen was incapable of standing up to the Hu family.
It would be embarrassing for Zhenzhen and make a fool of herself in front of the Hu family.
Just as she was about to refuse, Hu Wenhua stopped her.
"Sister, then I'll leave my marriage to Yunying to you."
Hu Wenhua was more confident than Tian Yunying. Even if Tian Zhenzhen was not good enough, it didn't mean he would give up on Yunying.
I'd like to see what special abilities Yunying, this younger sister, has.
"Sister Yunying, don't have any worries, just trust me."
Tian Zhenzhen also offered a word of advice to Tian Yunying.
Hearing her boyfriend and Zhenzhen say the same thing, Tian Yunying didn't feel isolated and helpless. She smiled gently at Tian Zhenzhen and nodded.
"Aunt Hu, we agree to your proposal. Please feel free to make any requests you may have."
Thinking that this person might become Yunying's mother-in-law in the future, Tian Zhenzhen was still quite polite and called her "Auntie".
He then found a chair and sat down, looking confident and poised as if he were negotiating with someone.
Hu Wenhua and Tian Yunying also stood behind her, making what was originally a joke-like bet seem more like a negotiation.
"Alright, since you've already agreed, don't blame me for being upfront about the unpleasant things."
"If you don't agree to our demands, Tian Yunying, I'm asking you to leave my son immediately."
Mother Hu was also angered by these people, who really thought that the Hu family could accept any kind of trash.
His gaze, when directed at Tian Yunying, also revealed hatred.
If it weren't for Tian Yunying, that troublemaker, how dare her son disobey her so much?
Whether it was to maintain her dignity in front of her son or to save the company, she had to humiliate them severely today.
Meeting Hu's mother's disgusted gaze, Tian Yunying felt somewhat sad.
Who doesn't want a happy marriage and the support of the man's parents?
But considering how much Zhenzhen had already done for her, and that the worst-case scenario couldn't be worse, she still firmly replied:
"Okay, I agree to your request."
"Wenhua, what's wrong? You don't think my bet with Tian Yunying was just a joke, do you? You think it doesn't matter if you lose? You should go find Tian Yunying or go find her."
Let me tell you, there's no such thing as a free lunch. If you lose, you'll have to completely sever ties with Tian Yunying.
Hu's mother understood her son very well; these words truly reflected Hu Wenhua's true feelings.
"Mom, does it have to be this way? Yunying and I have real feelings for each other, why can't you just let us be together?"
I will find a way to resolve the company's issues.
Hu Wenhua felt that his mother was making him feel suffocated, and that he was willing to sacrifice his marital happiness for the sake of the company.
"You need to figure something out. If you had a solution, the company's problems would have been resolved long ago."
This is Tian Yunying's only chance to marry into our family. If you miss this opportunity, I will never agree to your marriage, even if it kills me.
As expected of a businesswoman, Hu's mother wanted to use a bet to completely force the two of them into a corner.
Seeing Hu's mother's increasingly aggressive attitude, Tian Yunying didn't want to make things difficult for Hu Wenhua.
“I agree. If we cannot meet the demands made by your family, I will not contact Wenhua again.”
Perhaps this was their fate. Tian Yunying was very grateful to Hu Wenhua for protecting her.
But what if the Hu family refuses to acknowledge her?
She didn't want to see Wen Hua caught in a dilemma.
Wen Hua may be able to choose her firmly once or twice, but if time goes on, or if their feelings for each other fade, will Wen Hua eventually give up on her?
Tian Yunying is a very clear-headed person; she doesn't want to waste the love between them on resisting her family.
Marrying someone of equal social standing is the best match.
"Alright, since you've agreed, I'll now state our requirements. I hope you won't go back on your word."
Seeing that Tian Yunying agreed, Hu's mother immediately followed suit.
"No, I won't agree. We're not gambling anymore." Hu Wenhua had only been trying his luck, but when he heard Tian Yunying's answer, he felt a little flustered.
Is Yunying going to give up on him?
"You don't have to gamble, but you're giving up the opportunity voluntarily."
Wenhua, don't blame Mom for not giving you two a chance to be together later.
Hu's mother acted tactfully, and regardless of the circumstances, agreeing to this bet would put Tian Yunying in an awkward position.
If you don't agree, you can't say she didn't give you a chance later.
Regardless of the outcome, she won't suffer any loss.
"Yunying, I'll take you away right now."
"I won't leave. We'll have to face this sooner or later."
"Yunying, believe me, I will definitely marry you."
"But your parents don't like me, so I..."
Tian Zhenzhen was overwhelmed by the conversation behind her. Was she watching some kind of melodramatic soap opera?
Stop right there, you're really affecting her act.
"Ahem, you can talk about this later, Aunt Hu. Now that my sister Yunying has agreed, you can state your family's demands."
Tian Zhenzhen's words then steered the conversation back to the bet.
"If it's really Zhenzhen, then that's what I mean." Tian Yunying nodded in agreement. No matter what the outcome was today, she could accept it.
"Alright, then I'll make my request."
Hu's mother also wanted to reach a conclusion on this matter and to put her son's mind at ease, so she was anxious to speak up.
"Aunt Hu, please wait a moment. Although you are allowed to make your requests, you cannot make requests that are impossible to fulfill."
"Don't worry, even ordinary requests are difficult for you to meet."
"If you want to marry into our Hu family, you must bring 5000 million as a dowry; otherwise, there's no point in discussing anything."
When Tian Wenying heard the figure of 5000 million, her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
Haha, even if you sold her, she wouldn't be worth that much money.
"Mom, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
"Isn't it your own fault for bringing shame upon yourselves, and isn't it my fault for trying to break you up?"
The main problem is that our company has recently encountered difficulties, and without this 5000 million, the company would very likely go bankrupt.
If you can come up with 5000 million yuan, I will agree to let you be my daughter-in-law.
If you can't produce the money, then don't stay here and hinder Wen Hua's future.
You wouldn't want to see him fall from grace, would you? Only through a marriage alliance with the Cheng family can our company recover.
If you truly love Wenhua, you shouldn't hold him back.
Previously, Hu's mother used threats; now she's playing the emotional card.
