Chapter 266 The convoy enters the city, the scorn of the richest man's relative.
In early April, the provincial capital was bathed in a gentle spring breeze, and the plane trees along the roadside sprouted tender green buds.
On the busiest main road in the city center, traffic flows like a river.
However, all the drivers' attention was drawn to a convoy with a rather unusual style.
A black Audi A6L led the way, followed by five massive 18-wheel heavy trucks!
The roar of the engines was continuous, like muffled thunder rolling by, making the surrounding cars feel the ground tremble.
Su Qing sat in the passenger seat of the Audi, feeling her cheeks burning.
Looking in her rearview mirror at the five large trucks arrayed behind her, she thought the scene was utterly absurd.
Who comes to propose marriage in a convoy of trucks?
If those young ladies in the provincial capital saw this, where would Miss Su put her face afterward?
This isn't a marriage proposal; it's clearly a shopping trip or some kind of "truck driver social gathering"!
Using several truckloads of unknown "local specialties" to smash the door of the richest man in the provincial capital?
This action is like throwing a brick at a Rolls-Royce—it's too brutal and unreasonable!
"Jiang Chen, are you... are you sure you want to do this?"
Su Qing felt her voice was a little weak.
Jiang Chen, however, appeared completely unperturbed, his hands resting on the steering wheel, and even had the leisure to turn on the car stereo.
A stirring and uplifting melody instantly filled the entire carriage.
"The vast horizon is my love, and flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills..."
It's Phoenix Legend's "The Most Dazzling Ethnic Trend".
Su Qing felt her temples throbbing.
She's starting to regret it now; she shouldn't have been so impulsive last night.
"Don't worry." Jiang Chen nodded in rhythm, then turned his head and smiled at Su Qing.
"That's called being practical. In our Jiangjia Village, it's customary not to come empty-handed when proposing marriage."
"The more things we bring, the more sincere we are. Filling the car to the brim is the greatest respect we can show our father-in-law."
Su Qing listened to this fallacy and couldn't find a reason to refute it for a moment.
The convoy traveled smoothly and soon arrived at the Su Family Manor, located in a wealthy suburban area.
At the entrance of the manor, several young men and women dressed in bespoke suits, looking quite dapper, were gathered together smoking, their faces showing a hint of impatience.
The one leading them was none other than Su Qing's cousin, Gu Jingshen.
He specially turned down an important golf game today, but his parents dragged him over to support his uncle, Su Tianhao.
Hearing that the person they were dealing with was just a kid from the countryside, Gu Jingshen was extremely unhappy.
"What the hell? What time is it? Why isn't he here yet? He's acting like he owns the place."
Gu Jingshen glanced impatiently at the Patek Philippe on his wrist.
A woman with exquisite makeup standing next to her, Su Qing's cousin, covered her mouth, her tone full of disdain.
"Jing Shen, why are you arguing with a country bumpkin? I heard that kid's just a strawberry grower who got lucky and made a little money, and now he thinks he's all that."
"That's right, Qingqing must be bewitched. She's ignoring all the talented young men in the provincial capital and has fallen for a peasant instead. If word gets out, our Su family will be utterly disgraced."
Gu Jingshen curled his lip and stubbed out his cigar with a look of disgust.
He thought to himself, "I heard he's just a farmer from the village? Has Su Qing gone mad? If this gets into the circle of rich kids in the provincial capital, where will I put my face? I'll have to show him what a real class divide is later."
Just then, a black Audi A6L slowly came to a stop at the entrance of the manor.
The security guard standing ramrod straight at the entrance was about to approach and question me.
But when they saw Su Qing sticking her head out of the passenger seat, their expressions changed, they quickly stood at attention, saluted, and pressed the door open button.
"Young Miss, you're back."
The Audi drove smoothly into the estate.
But the five large trucks that followed, which looked like steel behemoths, were stopped by the security guards.
The security captain was covered in sweat. He jogged over, saluted the Audi, and looked very embarrassed.
"Sisters Big and Small Shi, this...this estate has rules that trucks aren't allowed in. If the master sees us, we..."
Su Qing hadn't spoken yet.
She rolled down the car window, stuck her head out, and waved her hand at the security captain with an air of dominance.
"Open the door!"
"These are all the betrothal gifts Jiang Chen brought for my father!"
"You'll delay my dad from receiving gifts. Can you handle the consequences?"
Upon hearing the words "bride price" and seeing Su Qing's unwavering expression, the security captain trembled in fear and dared not stop her any longer.
He immediately shouted into the walkie-talkie, "Open the door! Open the door now! Let them through!"
The massive iron gate, carved with intricate patterns, slowly opened.
Five large trucks, roaring deafeningly, followed the Audi and swaggered in.
The loud engine noise instantly startled Su Tianhao and the others who were drinking tea and waiting in the living room.
"What was that sound? Was it an earthquake?"
"What's going on outside?"
A large group of people rushed into the yard to see what had happened.
When they saw the five enormous vehicles parked on the lawn in the center of the yard, everyone was dumbfounded.
Gu Jingshen's mouth was so wide open it could fit an egg.
His family's estate is so large that even delivery trucks have to park outside the gate. When have you ever seen anything like this?
The Audi door opened.
Jiang Chen got out of the driver's seat.
He was dressed very casually today, in a relaxed outfit, without even a tie, and wearing ordinary sneakers.
His appearance made him stand out from his wealthy and influential relatives.
He completely ignored the critical, mocking, and disdainful looks he received.
He walked straight to the first big truck and waved to the bewildered driver.
"Open the door, open the trunk."
Just then, Su Tianhao walked out of the villa with a dark expression on his face.
He gripped his jade-inlaid walking stick tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white from the force.
He walked up to Jiang Chen, pointed at the trucks with the tip of his walking stick, his voice filled with suppressed rage.
"Kid, what do you mean by this?"
"Did you drive your junkyard truck into my yard?!"
"Or do you think my Su family is just a junkyard?!"
Su Tianhao's voice echoed in the empty courtyard.
All the relatives stood with their arms crossed, looking on with expressions of anticipation.
They all wanted to see how this arrogant brat would end up.
