Kang Xuemei shared the same thoughts.

Mr. Zheng giving her such a large cash gift already indicated a bright future, why would she continue to be with a delivery guy?

When she mingled with high society in the future, it would be embarrassing to admit that her husband was just a delivery man if anyone asked.

At this moment.

The host was about to start reading the important gifts from the southern guests, but Kang Xuemei stopped him.

What could Xu Hu's relatives possibly offer in terms of gifts? A few hundred per person?

It wasn't even enough to cover the drinks at the hotel, and she would feel embarrassed having it read out loud.

Next.

The ring exchange ceremony began.

Imitating a priest, the host asked Xu Hu: "Groom, do you take this bride to be your lawfully wedded wife? Whether in poverty or wealth, in health or sickness, through better or worse, will you stay by her side when she needs you the most, never to leave until eternity?"

"I do!"

Xu Hu replied passionately and with determination.

Applause broke out from below the stage.

The host turned to ask the bride, Kang Xuemei.

Unexpectedly.

As everyone waited for her "I do" and was ready to applaud, she turned to Xu Hu and said, "Do you love me?"

"Love, of course I love!" Xu Hu replied.

"How much do you love me?"

"I, I would give everything for you!"

"Can you prove it for me?"

"Of course!"

After Kang Xuemei asked, she glanced at her mother.

Her mother, Zhu Xiu Ping, understood and spoke up: "Xu Hu, since you said you would give everything for my daughter, I will give you thirty minutes to come up with a dowry of five hundred thousand to show your sincerity."

"What?!"

Xu Hu was dumbfounded. Yoursupporton*keepsthisseriesgoing.

The crowd below was also in an uproar, confused about what was happening.

Zhu Xiu Ping stood up, took the microphone from the host, and said to everyone: "I am not a greedy person, and it's not about the money. I just want to find someone genuine for my daughter. Everyone knows how outstanding my daughter is. Such a request isn't too much, right?"

People began to murmur among themselves.

Seeing this, the bridesmaids chimed in: "Of course not, if a delivery man wants to marry Xuemei, he must show his sincerity."

Below the stage, Zhao Yu took the opportunity to mock Qin Feng: "Looks like this guy is just like you, trying to be kept as a young man."

Qin Feng ignored him as if he were air, his brows furrowed as he watched Xu Hu on the stage.

Xu Hu was now extremely anxious and turned to Zhu Xiu Ping: "Mom..."

"Don't call me mom, I'm not your mother!"

Zhu Xiu Ping interrupted him coldly.

Xu Hu then looked at Kang Xuemei and said, "You know, the previous two hundred thousand for the dowry was already all of my family's savings! Plus the down payment for the house, the renovation, and the down payment for an Audi for your brother, I had to ask all of my friends and relatives for money, and now I don't have a penny left!"

Kang Xuemei replied angrily, "You have the nerve to talk about something so embarrassing?"

In front of her boss Mr. Zheng and so many good friends, she didn't want anyone to know that her boyfriend was so poor.

"I'm not trying to make things difficult for you," Zhu Xiu Ping said at that moment, "Don't you still have that house in the suburban area? It should be worth about five hundred thousand, right?"

"No!"

Xu Hu refused decisively.

That suburban house, where his mother lived, could not possibly be sold.

"Hmph!"

Zhu Xiu Ping sneered and then said to everyone, "As you all have seen, this is what he calls 'giving it his all'. He can't even make this small sacrifice, how can I entrust my daughter to him? For my daughter's happiness, it's better not to have this wedding!"

At this point, Xu Hu was so emotionally charged, his eyes red, as he stared at Kang Xuemei, "Is... is this your wish too?"

Kang Xuemei turned her face away, saying, "I'll listen to my mom."

"You…"

Xu Hu felt his heart turn cold.

Seeing this, his mother hurriedly stood up and pleaded, "In-law, don't be like this, let's talk this over…"

"Who is your in-law!"

Zhu Xiu Ping threw off her hand, causing Mrs. Xu to stagger and fall to the ground, but she didn't care and continued coldly, "You think your family is good enough for my daughter?"

"You dare to push my mom!"

Xu Hu hurried to help his mother up, shouting angrily.

"Slap!"

Kang Xuemei slapped Xu Hu across the face, saying, "You're getting bold, yelling at my mom like that? Your mom is already in poor health; it's normal for her to be knocked down by the wind, and now you blame my mom?"

"..."

Xu Hu's face burned with the sting.

At this moment.

Qin Feng stepped forward to Xu Hu's side, helped Mrs. Xu up, and asked him, "Are you still going to go through with this marriage? If you are, I'll provide the fifty thousand."

"No, no need..."

Mrs. Xu said tearfully, "Hu Zi already has a lot of debt he can't repay, I'll just sell the house..."

"Don't!"

Xu Hu clenched his fists, his eyes full of raging fire, "Mom, for you, I can bear any disdain, I can work twenty-four hours a day, bear all the hardship alone. I could marry a girl with too much vanity, but if they don't respect you, why should I even get married?!"

"That's your word then!"

Kang Xuemei and her mother's eyes lit up.

They had finally achieved their goal.

Seeing Xu Hu make his choice, Qin Feng smiled and said, "Good, I was wondering what I would do if you still didn't see reason. If it's over, then should we get our gift money returned?"

"Heh, talk about being petty, still worried about that little bit of money!"

Kang Xuemei sneered, looking at Xu Hu, "Are these the kind of friends you have? I heard he's a freeloader, a good-for-nothing living off others?"

"Shut up!"

Xu Hu quickly slapped her across the face and shouted, "Do not insult Brother Feng!"

"You, you..."

Kang Xuemei, humiliated in public, her face flushing with anger, yelled at the master of ceremonies, "Return all the gift money from the groom's side to them! And announce it loudly, let everyone see how shabby they are!"

The master of ceremonies didn't know what to do at this point and worried that they might refuse to settle the bill later, so he started to call out the names.

Those whose names were called went up to get their red envelopes back.

Most of these people were Xu Hu's family and friends, neighbors from his street, who felt humiliated in public, one by one their heads drooped in dejection, looking at Xu Hu with resentment.

That's when.

The master of ceremonies read Qin Feng's name, opened the red envelope, and was stunned by what he saw.

"Read it! Let everyone see how shameful this good-for-nothing son-in-law is!"

Kang Xuemei urged.

The master of ceremonies looked for a while before saying, "Qin Feng, the gift money is... nine hundred and ninety-nine million, nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine yuan exactly!"

"What?!"

The hall went completely silent in an instant.

Nine million and more, just one yuan shy of ten million?

That's too unbelievable!

Kang Xuemei quickly said, "Master of ceremonies, are you making fun of us?"
