After Xu Zixi and Yan Yincheng signed the engagement agreement, the lawyer immediately took out two more agreements.
One was the three - meal agreement that Xu Zixi had always been longing for, which promised her one hundred million yuan per month. And the other one...
When she saw the words on it clearly, Xu Zixi suddenly looked up at Yan Yincheng, her heart trembling.
It was a weighty agreement. As the Party A, Yan Yincheng would invest one billion yuan for Xu Zixi to build a biopharmaceutical research lab exclusively for her. She could choose the location herself and pick the talents on her own. He would be responsible for providing the funds.
However, this agreement also had a condition. She must complete her studies, obtain her university diploma and relevant qualification certificates before she could officially set up the lab. After all, academia was highly rigorous.
"Brother Cheng... I..." Xu Zixi wanted to say something to him, but as soon as the words came out, her throat tightened and she choked up. "But I..."
"Zixi, supporting you to set up the research lab is not for myself, but for more people in the world who need you. Don't trap yourself with me. Here, you can continue your beloved career with peace of mind. I'll always be behind you to support you. As for my eyes, I'll also keep trying hard to find a cure all over the world. I won't let go of any glimmer of hope."
Xu Zixi couldn't help but sit on the chair and cry. She actually didn't want to cry in front of everyone like this, but she just couldn't control herself.
Zai Zai noticed that she was crying. Anxious, he immediately broke free from the embrace of Yan Haikun and Yin Shulan and ran to Xu Zixi's side.
Even Xie Shi frowned and stood up, saying, "Yan Yincheng, what did you do? Why did you make my daughter cry!"
Not wanting to worry everyone, she fumbled to wipe the tears off her face, but the tears just kept coming.
Just then, she heard the sound of a chair being pulled out, and then she fell into a warm and solid embrace.
That big hand she was most familiar with held the back of her head, and with his still somewhat clumsy right hand, he wiped the tears from her face and said, "Zixi, don't cry. If you do, I'll think you don't like the gift I gave you."
"I like it." She sobbed. "But I don't want anyone else. I don't want to be a great saint. I just want to be selfish in this life. I only want you. I'll work hard, Brother Cheng. I'll definitely work hard to find a way to cure you. You have to wait for me."
Yan Yincheng smiled tenderly. "Okay, I'll wait for you. No matter how long it takes, I'll wait for you."
Mr. Yan, who always looked cold and serious, now had a look on his face so gentle that it could drown someone.
At the very end of the guest seats, hidden in the shadows, a certain person had a very complicated look in his eyes.
He watched the engaged couple embracing on the stage, and let out a barely audible sigh. He hooked the corner of his lips, as if in resignation and also in emotion. He never thought that after all the twists and turns, these two people would finally be together. What a twist of fate! But then again, this was a good thing, wasn't it? Come to think of it, these two should even thank him.
With Yan Yincheng's comfort, Xu Zixi stopped crying soon. And Yan Yincheng simply didn't go back to his own seat. He just stayed in her seat and signed the other two agreements with her.
Then, in front of all the guests, Yan Yincheng and Xu Zixi put on their engagement rings for each other. They didn't prepare new rings. They still used the previous pair, which had special meaning for both of them. Xu Zixi wanted this ring to always accompany her.
"After exchanging rings, it's time for a kiss, right!" Below, Brother Hu suddenly shouted. "Am I right, everyone?"
"Right, right, right. Kiss, kiss!" With the first shout, the atmosphere suddenly changed from romantic to lively. So the others also joined in the cheering. The loudest ones were Dai Sha, several of Yan Yincheng's bodyguards, and also Wang Dabao and the two Zai Zais. Finally, even Yan Haikun joined in the cheering.
These people! There were elders here!
"Hu Yuankang, just you wait!" Xu Zixi gritted her teeth at Brother Hu who was cheering.
But the next second, she felt her waist being grasped, and a force pulled her forward.
"Since it's everyone's wish, we might as well fulfill it." His deep and magnetic voice sounded in her ear. Then his slightly cold lips covered hers, blocking all the words she was about to say.
"They're kissing! They're kissing!"
"Brother, Daddy is kissing Mommy! Kissing means you like someone very much. Daddy must like Mommy a lot!" Xuxu clapped her hands and jumped up and down happily.
Xuanxuan's eyes narrowed into slits with laughter. He held Xuxu's hand and nodded vigorously. "Yes! Daddy likes Mommy super much!"
The shouts at the scene became even more enthusiastic. Someone was dissatisfied that she wasn't concentrating. A stinging pain like a bee sting spread on her lips. Taking advantage of the moment when she let out a startled cry in pain, he forcefully and domineeringly occupied the territory. The long French kiss made her legs go weak. She could hardly stand steadily and could only rely on him, which instantly brought the two of them closer.
Suddenly, the embrace became empty. She felt a bit lost. But the next second, her body suddenly left the ground. She was suddenly picked up by Yan Yincheng. She let out a startled cry and quickly wrapped her arms around his neck to steady herself so as not to fall.
Yan Yincheng said, "There are drinks, snacks and buffet on site. Everyone, help yourselves. Zixi is not feeling well. I'll take her back to the room first." After saying that, Mr. Yan followed the memory of the way he came and took his fiancée back along the same road towards the big house not far away, which was decorated with twinkling little colored lights.
In this kind of atmosphere, except for a few little kids, who didn't understand!
"What's wrong with Mommy? Is she sick?" Only Xuanxuan, who was concerned about his mommy, was deceived. He looked anxious and wanted to chase after them.
Alex called out with a smile, "Xuanxuan, my little apprentice."
Hearing his voice, Xuanxuan's eyes lit up. He turned his head towards the source of the sound and saw the familiar mixed - race face. "Teacher Fei Fei!"
Xuxu also came over, excited. "Teacher Fei Fei!"
Alex opened his arms to the two kids and said a bit aggrievedly, "Teacher Fei Fei has been here for a long time, but Xuanxuan and Xuxu didn't notice Teacher Fei Fei. It makes Teacher Fei Fei very sad."
The two kids immediately forgot their "unwell" daddy and mommy. They rushed into Alex's arms one after another like two little cannonballs and rubbed against him hard.
"Teacher Fei Fei, we miss you so much!"
"Teacher Fei Fei has prepared a new show for you. Come on, let's find a quiet place. Wait for Teacher Fei Fei to perform magic tricks for you!"
The kids were overjoyed when they heard this. But they didn't forget their good friend Wang Dabao and their new friend Li Xinxin. Finally, all the kids on the scene ran after Alex!
The others picked up their glasses and celebrated this wonderful moment together!
