Chapter 192: Chapter 192: Betrothal Gifts

"Is there a possibility that Miss Shen Silin from our family has a problem with her eyes or her brain?" Shen Huiming’s wife, Second Madam Shen Liu Jinhua, looked at Yang Yu and Shen Silin with ill intentions. "Just like some people specifically enjoy eating stinky tofu and snail rice noodle, or some dogs that specifically like to eat shit, there’s nothing anyone can do about it!"

"Exactly," Yang Yu said teasingly as he looked at Liu Jinhua, "The kind of dog you mentioned that likes to eat shit, isn’t that Young Master Li?"

Liu Jinhua’s eyes widened: "Which of your eyes saw me talking about Young Master Li?"

Yang Yu laughed, "You just said Silin might have a problem with her eyes or brain, yet Young Master Li still specifically traveled all the way from Yanjing to propose to a woman with such issues, isn’t that precisely like a dog who likes to eat shit?"

"Pfft—"

"Haha!"

Although everyone knew they shouldn’t laugh, they couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Yang Yu’s mouth was really too sharp and too venomous. No matter what others said, he could bounce all the insults back to Young Master Li; he was simply unbeatable!

"You!" Liu Jinhua, eyes bulging like goldfish, was so angry that she couldn’t utter a word in retort, her lungs almost exploded with rage.

On the contrary, Shen Yueling came over, all smiles and politeness: "Yang Yu, I advise you to give up, it’s still not too late to back out now. Tell me, what do you have to compare with Young Master Li?"

Sitting beside Young Master Li, Li Shan snorted coldly, "Shen Yueling, don’t compare this scum to Young Master Li, he doesn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same breath!"

"Heh, I’d like to ask, what does Young Master Li have to compare with me?" Yang Yu’s face was full of defiant pride. "In terms of background, he was born with a golden key, something I certainly can’t compare with. But apart from that, in what aspects is he better than me?"

"I come from the countryside, and due to my family’s poverty, even though I achieved top marks in liberal arts in the citywide college entrance exams, I eventually had to reluctantly give up on further education and enter the workforce early to work in construction."

"Since childhood, I was guided by an old Taoist priest and learned skills from him. He instructed me not to use the skills he taught me until the right time. After working in construction for three years, the time finally came."

"In just two months, I earned over a hundred billion through my own efforts. Although only considered the bottom tier among the elite of Tianhai City, I still made it into the ranks of the wealthy families."

"I just want to ask Young Master Li, without family resources, could you endure three years of working on a construction site, could you start from scratch and earn a hundred billion in two months!"

"The rest of you don’t need to make excuses for Young Master Li, he has a mouth of his own, he can answer!"

Watching the confident Yang Yu, Shen Silin couldn’t help but become somewhat infatuated.

When they first met, Shen Silin had only considered Yang Yu as cannon fodder, taking a gamble.

Yet, in just two months, Yang Yu had grown to such an extent, which made her quite emotional.

What kind of man is the most handsome?

Obviously, it’s the capable and confident man who is the most handsome!

Even Mrs. Shen couldn’t help but nod repeatedly, praising her daughter’s taste nonstop.

Everyone else fell silent, turning their gaze towards Young Master Li.

Li Shan was about to speak up for her master when Young Master Li stopped her.

He stood up, smiling at Yang Yu, "Yang Yu, I have to admit, you are an outstanding person. However, your assumptions are too naive; this world was never about fairness. It’s juvenile to fantasize that you and I start from the same line."

"I was indeed born with a silver spoon; since Li Tang of Xia Country, my family has carried on for over a thousand years. You come from nothing, what makes you think you have the right to challenge the efforts of dozens of my ancestors?"

"Rest assured, I am not foolish enough to demand that you stand on the same starting line as me." Facing Young Master Li’s questioning, Yang Yu stood his ground, "But, nobles and high officials, were they born with their status? Peasant uprisings have brought down the Great Qin Empire; your so-called millennium-old family is not invincible either!"

"Didn’t you say I might not survive the night? How about we make a bet to see if I can live through the night?"

Yang Yu had actually left something unsaid: the Li Family had over a thousand years of wealth, but he, Yang Yu, had over two thousand years of capability. Who was he to fear!

"Naive." Young Master Li looked at Yang Yu with a smirk, "If I make that bet with you now, and you die tonight, what if the police come after me? I am Young Master Li, spotlessly clean, never tainted by any scandal."

Young Master Li’s words were grandiose, but he was essentially warning Yang Yu that he could cause his mysterious death, without giving the police any reason to bother him.

Yang Yu understood Young Master Li’s point, and responded with a dismissive sneer, saying no more.

"This guy isn’t that frightening, at least not when it comes to verbal sparring," Yang Yu thought as he formed an initial impression of Young Master Li. Next, he was likely to face various forms of retaliation from him.

But was Yang Yu afraid? Of course not.

The opposing side was human, and so was he. There was nothing to fear.

When soldiers come, they will be met with a blockade, when water rises, it will be contained with earth; their confrontation had just begun, and it was still undecided whose deer it is!

"Grandma is here!" someone shouted, and everyone looked towards the center of the Shen Family’s main hall.

Mrs. Shen Sr., dressed in a festive red longevity robe, sat in the central chair, her face full of opportunistic smiles: "Welcome everyone, especially Young Master Li from Yanjing. Young Master Li’s presence has brought glory to the Shen Family, it’s our honor!"

Mrs. Shen Sr. was utterly obsequious and fawning to Young Master Li, making Yang Yu feel the urge to vomit.

Young Master Li smiled, "Mrs. Shen Sr., you are too kind. If Selin agrees to marry me, her grandmother will be my grandmother too."

"Marrying Young Master Li would be her good fortune; there are no ’ifs,’" Mrs. Shen Sr. said with a laugh, "I heard she brought some random man today, I don’t care to say much, only ask Young Master Li to show your family’s betrothal gifts, so that this random man might take the hint and leave of his accord."

"So, it’s a show of wealth," Yang Yu thought to himself with a cold chuckle, not at all disturbed, "I actually want to see what kind of betrothal gifts Young Master Li can produce to enlighten me."

It wasn’t just Yang Yu who was curious; other families of Tianhai City were equally eager to find out what Young Master Li had brought.

"I was in a hurry when leaving, didn’t bring much, but these items are all treasures from the Li Family’s collection, worth tens of billions." Young Master Li smiled, clapped his hands, and immediately, several large boxes were carried in and placed in the middle of the Shen Family’s great hall.

Young Master Li opened the first box, and instantly, everyone’s eyes were dazzled by the light emanating from the box!
