Honorable Hubby Behind Me

Chapter 3

"The Phoenix flies. A golden comb.

"The Phoenix attends the ceremony. One golden hairpin.-

"Auspicious wishes. One jade abacus.

"Dragon-Phoenix pair. A pair of gold bracelets.

"Mandarin Ducks frolicking amidst lotuses. A set of golden bowls and chopsticks." 2

Members of the Sue family looked at each other after listening to the list of gifts. How could that be a gift to Grandmother Sue? It was practically a betrothal gift! "Cash betrothal, eight million eight hundred and eighty thousand."

Everyone in the Sue family was stunned.

When the bright red hundred-buck bills were placed in front of them, the entire hall fell silent and all that could be heard was some rapid breathing.

At 8.88 million, that kind of money was an astronomical number for a second-rate family like the Sue family. 1

Grandmother Sue got up on crutches and staggered to the person presenting those gifts. She asked excitedly, "Excuse me, who are you? And which of our Sue family's girls have you fallen in love with?"

Upon hearing that, several of the Sue family's unmarried younger women were flushed with excitement. Although they did not know who the other party was, they were surely wealthy men. Marrying a wealthy man was something all of them could only dream of.

Yvonne's face paled. She was the only woman from the Sue family who was married. In other words, everyone else had a chance, but she had no chance at all.

"I'm only tasked to present the gifts. I don't know anything else." The gift-giver came and went quickly, leaving no further information.

Everyone in the Sue family looked at the gold, the jade, and the 8.88 million in gorgeously-red bills. Many people were already drooling. If their unmarried daughters had been identified, their familial status would certainly soar to great heights. From then on, the entire Sue family would have to rely on them.

"It must be me. I'm the most beautiful woman from the Sue family." At that point, a woman with a very sexy figure said.

"Yo, yo, yo! Where's all that self-confidence coming from? We still don't know who it's for yet. Do you have to be so impatient?"

"Yeah, we all have a chance, so why would it definitely be you? I think this rich young master is deliberately trying to be mysterious. Maybe I'm the one he fell in love with."

Several younger women argued with each other and the family split into several factions.
