In terms of those who could not accept this sudden situation the most, it was He Jinrong!
On the way here, he had bragged to his parents, thinking that Situ Yan was merely playing a trick and couldn't possibly have found a man to replace him.
But now, with Situ Yan appearing with Jiang Feng so openly, he realized he'd been overconfident!
Situ Yan wouldn't bring a man home without a reason; she had used actual action to fiercely slap his face!
"Xiao Yan, what do you mean by this, who is he?" He Jinrong suddenly stood up, coldly staring at Jiang Feng, and then questioning Situ Yan.
"My man, Jiang Feng!" Situ Yan met He Jinrong's gaze without a doubt, speaking in front of the entire family.
What?!!!
Under everyone's eyes, hearing Situ Yan say such words, everyone's expression changed again!
Isn't this ridiculous?
The He family trio came all the way from the Provincial City today just to arrange her engagement, but she herself brought a man back?!
This is utterly ludicrous, are all these people here to watch a joke?
Noticing the ashen faces of He Zhaohui and Geng Shuyun, all the Situ Family members broke into a cold sweat.
Situ Yan's actions left the whole family with no place to stand!
"Situ Yan, what nonsense are you spouting? Who allowed you to bring a random man back?"
Situ Zhenjiang forced himself to bark angrily: "Quickly get over here to meet your future in-laws properly, and then go inside to tidy yourself up, make yourself presentable before coming out again!"
"I'm not spouting nonsense; this is my man!" Situ Yan calmly retorted to her grandfather, as if the He family trio present were simply air.
He Jinrong's expression was as if he had eaten shit; it was like there was a gigantic green hat placed on his head, and he had been oblivious, self-deceiving all along, kept in the dark!
"Commander Situ, what on earth is going on here?"
He Zhaohui addressed Situ Zhenjiang coldly, his term of address for him even changed, his expression extremely grim!
"Zhaohui, let me explain..."
Given that he was in the wrong, Situ Zhenjiang forced a smile and said a sentence, and then with a darkened face, he shouted angrily at Situ Yan: "Situ Yan, I'm giving you three minutes to do as I say immediately, or else you'll bear all consequences yourself!"
He was trying to stabilize He Zhaohui in this way, also wanting the He family trio to know that this mess was entirely Situ Yan's own doing, unrelated to the Situ Family and not his instruction.
But the He family trio weren't toddlers, how could they give Situ Zhenjiang a chance to act out a double act?
"Commander Situ, to be honest, before coming to Binhai, I had heard some rumors, which I initially didn't believe. Now it seems, they were all true!"
Geng Shuyun sneered, her gaze fixed on Situ Yan, unceremoniously saying: "Your precious granddaughter, indeed more accomplished than I imagined!"
Situ Zhenjiang couldn't explain, nor could he exonerate himself.
When the mother-in-law said such words, it meant today's engagement banquet between the Situ and He families was completely ruined. The Situ Family at last made a fool of themselves, becoming a laughing stock!
"Situ Yan, you really are a good granddaughter of the Situ Family, is this your birthday gift to me? I truly didn't spoil you for nothing since you were little!" Situ Zhenjiang said to Situ Yan through gritted teeth.
Situ Yutao and his wife, Situ Yuhua, Situ Yuhong and his wife were all coldly looking at Situ Yan at this moment, gritting their teeth in hatred!
Only Qi Qiuge had some heartache for her daughter but also felt that what her daughter did today was utterly absurd, making the entire Situ Family lose face!
As the most humiliated one on the scene, He Jinrong took a deep breath, his whole body trembling, staring at Situ Yan and said: "Situ Yan, all my sincerity to you was in vain. You've utterly disappointed me!"
"I ask you, do you really think marrying me and becoming a daughter-in-law of the He Family is a very shameful thing?"
"Yes!"
Unexpectedly, in the face of He Jinrong's gritted questioning, Situ Yan unhesitantly and neatly gave her reply.
Whoosh!!!
All of a sudden, everyone's face in the entire hall changed again!
The Situ Family members felt like they were about to collapse, whereas the He Family members had reached a furious point!
"Are you really so ungrateful?" He Jinrong felt as if his face had been slapped again, in front of everyone, teetering on the brink of a volcanic eruption.
Situ Yan indifferently stared at He Jinrong, quietly said: "He Jinrong, actually you are not a bad person, but your mistake is in coveting me and scheming at every step to force me into compliance! You knew very well that we're not familiar, yet you used strategies to give my grandfather hints to marry me off to you. For that reason alone, you violated my own wishes; I could never endorse you!"
"Ha! So, you chose this low-level security guard to disgust me?"
He Jinrong grinned grimly, transferring his gaze onto Jiang Feng: "Think of me, He Jinrong, deserving of being the favored son of the He Family. No matter where I go, I am superior to others. Even in the Provincial City, I can be in the limelight, yet today, a mere security guard has undermined me, what a disgrace!"
"However, I must say, you're truly bold, to dare vie for a woman with me and publicly act this way; do you truly not know how many lives you have?"
Jiang Feng laughed, recalling not long ago Huangfu Family's eldest son, Huangfu Shang, had said similar things to him, and how did that go?
In front of him, I crushed his mother, slaughtered his inseparable servant Uncle Hai, and frightened his grandfather so much that he didn't dare say a word!
And now, someone far less significant than Huangfu Shang dared to say this to me?
"He Jinrong, right." Jiang Feng calmly looked at He Jinrong, smiled and said: "Before coming here, I wondered who exactly is the eldest son of the He Family who keeps making advances towards Situ Yan?"
"Now, seeing you, I finally understand. With just you, indeed you don't even deserve to lick Situ Yan's shoes, so I advise you to look in the mirror more often, and not excessively strive for foolishness."
