Shi Hu and Luo Mingzhu realized and loosened their grips at once. Luo said excitedly: "Brother, we're counting on you. If you can make my father permit our marriage, you'll be our reclaim parents. And please at lease prevent my engagement with Jin Fucheng."
"Right, brother. My lifetime happiness is up to you." Shi Hu nodded earnestly.
Yu Sheng was speechless. He gazed at the two of them and asked Luo Mingzhu: "Do you have money now?"
"Money?" Luo Mingzhu was slightly stunned. She took out a Centurion. "The limit of this card is 20 million RMB, but why do you want money?"
Yu Sheng directly took over the card and said shamelessly: "Money makes the mare go. 20 million RMB is not much but I'll suck it up."
"Not much?" Luo Mingzhu was astonished, and hurriedly said: "Wait a moment. How much do you want? I'll let my sisters transfer money to me."
A real wealthy—offered 20 million RMB without striking a blowing, and could easily borrow more.
Yu Sheng frowned, and said after contemplation: "I don't care how much. It's just a matter of betrothal presents. I'll contact my friend (System) right away to prepare some precious betrothal presents. Make a noise in due course!"
"Make a noise?" Luo Mingzhu was slightly stunned. She stared at Yu Sheng with confusion but nodded to show her support: "Take it easy. Since it is for betrothal presents, I'll give you more money. I'll ask my sisters to transfer money to me as soon as possible. I'll try my best to raise hundreds of millions of RMB."
"Hundreds of millions of RMB…" Yu Sheng was totally amazed.
The System was ecstatic. "Bloke, well done. Didn't expect you can play this trick."
"What trick? I just want some money. Please prepare those cheap but precious products to help me make a profit."
The System giggled: "No problem! But how to prepare?"
Yu Sheng thought it over and told the System: "Whatsoever! Make sure the products you prepare are rare and useful. It might as well be something they've heard of but never seen."
"…Well, got it!" The System seemingly didn't fully understand.
Yu Sheng had a bad feeling, but thinking of "products of the System are absolutely fine", he said right away: "Give me a list and let me have a look."
Meanwhile, Luo Mingzhu made several telephone calls within ten minutes, and told Yu Sheng: "Ok, 220 million RMB in the card. If not enough, I can borrow more."
"I…" Yu Sheng thought too much money would also make it troublesome. After all, his major goal was to help Luo Mingzhu and Shi Hu, so he shook his head. "Forget about it. It's almost enough. I'll transfer the money to my friend so that he can buy the presents. The banquet will be held two hours later, and the time should be enough. My plan is…"
"Tell us now! What's you plan?" Shi Hu asked anxiously.
Yu Sheng smiled. "First, we should appear at a proper time, which is the second before the announcement of the engagement, so as to make them unprepared; then you should propose, using the lines I'm going to prepare for you, but your proposal doesn't aim to succeed."
"Doesn't aim to succeed?" Shi Hu was speechless. He gazed at Yu Sheng and exclaimed: "No way!"
Yu Sheng cast a glance at Shi Hu, and said: "That is because you will by no means succeed. Our goal is to irritate the golden retriever, so that he will agree to compete with you, which is to contend for marriage. Sister-in-law's father will definitely agree in order to save face; and the arrogant Jin Fucheng will certainly compete with you either for saving face or being forced by situation."
"Bravo!" Shi Hu stared at Yu Sheng in astonishment and exclaimed: "I know you're extraordinary--not everyone can come up with such a great idea. In the due course, I'll compete with him in martial arts to see who's the winner, and I can beat him down with only one punch."
If possible, fighting with each other rather than quarrelling.
"…" Yu Sheng was completely speechless, but shook his head: "Impossible! Your rival won't agree to fight with you."
"Then what should I do? Compete with him in literary grace? No, I'm not his match." Shi Hu was helpless.
He, a guy even didn't know how many strokes of the characters of his name, would undoubtedly lose if they don't compete in martial arts.
However, Yu Sheng smiled mysteriously and murmured his plan to them. The two of them were stupefied. The plan could indeed stop the engagement, but as for the success of Shi Hu's proposal, it all depended on fate.
