When the topic of engagement came up, both He Muqing and Qin Feng were taken aback. The two of them worked very well together. Qin, surprised, said, "When did we ever mention getting engaged? I have no idea why I didn't know about this!" "Neither do I," replied He, equally astonished, "We both didn't know, yet someone outside our circle comes and tells us about it—what a strange coincidence!" Guan Wenfeng's expression darkened. These two simply didn't know how to give him the respect he deserved. He said firmly, "It's not you two who are getting engaged—it's me and Muqing who are. Unless something unexpected happens, we'll hold our wedding ceremony on May Day next year!" "You and her," Qin exclaimed, eyes wide. "It's me and you." "What's with Leader's eyes being so wide open, pointing straight at Guan Shuai and saying: 'Are you serious? You're getting married on May Day next year—how come I didn't know about this? You must have mistaken me for someone else, right? Even if you're getting married, I'm marrying Xiao Feng—how could I possibly marry you!' Guan Shuai smiled and said: 'This arrangement was made jointly by both our parents!' Qin Feng coldly glanced at him: 'In this day and age, parents still arranging their children's marriages? You two are well-established families—how could you possibly feel embarrassed about it?' 'I don't think so. I actually believe I'm a perfect match for Mu Qing.' He maintained his warm smile. 'You're about to become Mu Qing's former partner. I'm quite generous—I'll be happy to remain friends with you as long as you're willing to step aside. You should know, having me as a friend will open up many more paths for you. But if we turn into rivals, do you think your path will still be viable?' That's a threat. Yet he didn't know that throughout his life, Qin Daxiao had always been most at ease with threats—whether from the white world or the black world, come as they may, he'd simply take them in stride. Qin Feng didn't directly counter her words, but instead looked at the beautiful woman in his arms and said, "Qingqing, what do you mean?" Mr. He's eyes widened in amazement—no doubt about it, young women simply have no immunity to diamond jewelry. Of course, this doesn't mean she'll abandon Qin Feng solely for this necklace and switch her allegiance to Guan Wenfeng. Seeing the beautiful woman clearly interested in the gift, Guan's smile naturally curled upward. Qin's eyes also widened. He sighed, "This is truly exquisite! Guan, I'm sure your gift must be quite valuable." Guan, pretending not to care, replied, "Actually, it's not that impressive. I bought it during the European economic crisis a few years ago, spending 1.8 million euros back then. At today's market prices, it should have tripled in value!" Converted into RMB, the necklace is worth approximately 420 million, making it a truly half-billion-yuan piece. Presenting such a valuable gift, it's safe to say no girl could resist the allure. Indeed, it's a genuine treasure. "Qin Dashi sincerely said, then shifting his tone: "Wait a minute—Guang Gongzi isn't from a bureaucratic family... No, not a bureaucratic family, how could they afford so many jewels? Your father has been the President of the country since birth, yet he never managed to earn even a hundred million throughout his life!" Guang Gongzi seemed to have anticipated this very question, and responded with a clear, confident voice: "Our Guan family isn't only active in politics—we are a well-known commercial group in Huaxia, with businesses both domestically and internationally. Of course, these ventures are managed by my uncle, while my father is a pure politician who never interferes with business matters!" Wasn't that obvious? With such a prominent political background, who would dare to openly enter the business world? Yet, with such a powerful political backing, making money wouldn't be easy. Guang Gongzi continued: "This necklace was originally meant for my future wife. Today, I'm giving it to you, Mu Qing. Do you like it?" He Li, without thinking, nodded in agreement. Qin, the younger brother, looked utterly unconvinced. "Hey, hey! Can't you just focus on money? Didn't you remember our grand vows back then?" Guan smiled. What vows? All nonsense—today's girls are so practical. The beautiful woman wiggled his arm. "But this necklace is absolutely stunning. We've known each other for so long, and you've never given me anything like this before!" "Speak the truth," Qin insisted, eyes blazing. "I've given you so many high-end handbags, and even a luxury sports car worth several million—did you forget?" Before the beautiful woman could respond, Guan stepped in. "All of those were just small tokens. In the future, I'll give Mengqing even more. If you feel short-changed, then all the gifts you've given her, I'll return to you—full price. Of course, they'll have to be retired and treated as trash!" By consistently showing off his wealth and generosity, he was aiming to win her heart. "Look, it's still Guan Gongzi who's generous," He Fei Bai said, giving him a withering glance. Qin the Young Man pretended to be very upset: "I never expected that—turns out you're also someone who values wealth and looks down on the less affluent. That truly disappoints me!" "I've always been someone who values wealth and looks down on the less affluent—what can I do?" He Fei Bai countered firmly. Guan Gongzi felt a deep joy blossoming inside him—just a simple necklace was enough to drive the two of them apart. It was so easy, with absolutely no challenge at all. Yet he failed to notice the most important point: though they were flushed with embarrassment, they remained intimately embraced. Qin the Young Man suddenly stood up, sneering, "Isn't it just about diamonds? I'll satisfy you with that—just wait, I'm going to fetch them right now!" With that, he strode up the stairs. Guan Gongzi thought to himself: "I simply won't believe you can offer anything better. This isn't something you can find at a roadside market—sometimes even with wealth, it's hard to acquire. Seizing this excellent opportunity, he decided to dig deep into the corner and smiled, saying, "Mu Qing, since you like it, why don't I help you carry it?" The beautiful woman replied without hesitation, "With such a lovely necklace, I'd need a formal evening gown to match. I'm wearing my pajamas now, so I'll pass."
