This time, the call was from a super-rich lady.

She immediately congratulated Madam Ye and then inquired about the two children's marriage plans!

Mrs. Ye truthfully reported the situation.

The person on the other end of the phone immediately urged, "Mrs. Ye, what are you waiting for? There's no time like the present. The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, perfect for a wedding. Just set the date for their engagement banquet!"

Don't worry, I'll definitely make you satisfied this time. I'll give you a generous red envelope as a congratulatory gift that will surprise you!

The lady acted decisively, suggesting that the engagement banquet be held for the two of them the day after tomorrow.

"Madam Wang, is the day after tomorrow an auspicious day?"

Madam Ye's heart stirred upon hearing this.

"Of course! If you're worried, you can always find a master to choose an auspicious date!"

Madam Wang further urged.

"Thank you so much, Madam Wang! I'll go and check the date right away!"

Mrs. Ye nodded repeatedly and, after hanging up the phone, immediately dialed the number of the Ye family's personal feng shui master.

"Sister Xiaoran, that's wonderful! You'll soon be my sister-in-law!"

From now on, I don't need to call you Sister Xiao Ran anymore; I should call you Sister-in-law!

Ye Haixia immediately shouted with joy, her face beaming with delight.

Xiao Ran listened silently, a faint blush rising to her cheeks.

She naturally couldn't interrupt on such a topic that concerned her lifelong happiness, but her eyes held an irrepressible smile.

Unexpectedly, the members of various powerful families became her great helpers, doing her a huge favor.

Over the past few days, she has been subtly influencing Mrs. Ye, quietly instilling in her the idea of ​​being in charge of the household, that she doesn't have to obey Ye Boxiong in everything, and that she should be a person with her own opinions.

Moreover, Ye Boxiong's health was deteriorating, and Madam Ye gradually felt that she should take the lead in family affairs.

Of course, Xiao Ran's influence was extremely subtle, and no one else could see it, not even Madam Ye.

Just a few minutes later, another wealthy woman called, offering her congratulations and urging her to get the wedding done as soon as possible.

In just half a day, Mrs. Ye received more than a dozen phone calls, all from the most prominent ladies in the capital.

Each lady solemnly promised to present her with a generous gift that would satisfy her, and one lady even revealed that the gift she prepared was worth no less than ten million.

This made Mrs. Ye overjoyed, and all she could think about was holding an engagement banquet for the two of them as soon as possible.

The feng shui master she consulted quickly gave her a reply, confirming that the day after tomorrow was indeed the most auspicious day for marriage, and a rare good time in the next six months.

Now, Madam Ye's determination to hold an engagement banquet for Ye Haitao and Xiao Ran the day after tomorrow has become even stronger.

Ye Haixia listened with great enthusiasm, gesturing wildly and chattering incessantly while hugging Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran didn't pay much attention at first. As the matriarch of the Ye family, it was normal for Madam Ye to have dealings with various noble ladies, and even for some to deliberately curry favor with her.

However, after receiving more than a dozen calls urging her to get married in a short period of time, she gradually felt that something was wrong.

This is clearly someone stirring things up behind the scenes.

Meanwhile, headlines about her resurfaced, dominating prominent sections of major media outlets.

All the reports praised Xiao Ran for everything he had done for the Ye family, with praise filling every line.

Another report was even more pointed, directly questioning whether Xiao Ran, who had done so much for the Ye family, was already engaged to Ye Haitao, but had not yet announced the wedding date.

Some articles went even further, finding the birth dates and times of Ye Haitao and Xiao Ran and calculating auspicious dates for their engagement and wedding.

The report asserted that Ye Haitao and Xiao Ran would only have a lifetime of happiness if they held an engagement ceremony the day after tomorrow and got married two months later, so that the Ye family would have many descendants and great fortune, and that Xiao Ran would give birth to an outstanding child who would become the next head of the Ye family.

This report is so convincing because the person who calculated the date was a metaphysical master who was known to everyone in various families.

Almost every wealthy and powerful family consults him on choosing an auspicious date for weddings, funerals, births, illnesses, and deaths.

The comment section exploded immediately after the report was published:

"I never expected that our Princess Xiao, who has already started managing the Ye family's household affairs, would still not have obtained the ticket to become the young mistress of the Ye family?"

"What exactly is the Ye family up to?"

Such an excellent daughter-in-law, aren't you afraid someone else will snatch her away? Shouldn't you hurry up and get them engaged?

"I heard that the head of the Ye family is sick and hospitalized. Perhaps he didn't have time to make arrangements!"

"He only needs to agree to these things; you don't have to do it yourself! Don't make excuses!"

"Yes! Patriarch Ye, quickly follow the will of the people and arrange the engagement between Young Master Ye and Princess Xiao the day after tomorrow..."

This post quickly became the hottest topic on the entire internet. Before noon, it had already received over ten million views and millions of comments, firmly securing its place as the top story on the headlines.

On the other hand, Ji Xiuhan and Lu Wanqing did not follow the original plan, but instead had a great time in the most bustling part of the island nation's capital.

As expected, the Wu family army did not appear, nor did any other suspicious persons approach Ji Xiuhan.

Lu Wanqing gradually relaxed and had a great time.

Later that evening, the two strolled along the beach.

They were chatting and scrolling through their phones when suddenly Lu Wanqing exclaimed, "Honey, look! It's Miss Xiao and Young Master Ye's news again, it's on the front page again!"

And this post, how come it's so popular? It's almost 100 million views and has over a million comments?

As she spoke, she quickly opened videos and posts about Xiao Ran, scrolling through them one by one, clicking her tongue as she watched, and secretly glancing at Ji Xiuhan out of the corner of her eye: "I said, husband, oh no, I should call you Mr. Ji. You should take a look at your ex-girlfriend, your loyal suitor. Now she's finally getting married to Young Master Ye of the Ye family. The engagement date is the day after tomorrow!"

Look at them, they're a perfect match, both talented and beautiful, and from top wealthy families with countless riches.

"Mr. Ji, are you regretting it now? Regret not accepting Miss Xiao's advances?"

As Lu Wanqing spoke, she held her phone up to Ji Xiuhan's face so he could see the videos, posts, and comments.

"They get engaged, they get married, what does it have to do with me?"

Ji Xiuhan gave a faint smirk, his tone completely indifferent.

"You really don't regret it?"

"Why should I regret it?"

"Miss Xiao has everything she needs: people, money, and talent. She's practically the most perfect woman in the world..."

"Stop, stop, stop! Honey, no matter how good this woman is, she has nothing to do with me. She's not my type!"

"It seems you're right. Even if Miss Xiao is perfect, comparable to a fairy descended from heaven, she's still not your type!"

Lu Wanqing, who was in high spirits, suddenly shook her head violently. Why would such an outstanding man not like a perfectly good woman, but instead like a man of the same sex?

Leaving aside Lu Wanqing's regret for Ji Xiuhan, who missed out on the perfect woman, in the hospital room in the capital, Ye Boxiong had just hung up the phone with the head of the Chen family, and was filled with frustration.

But just a few minutes later, another head of the Wang family called, saying the same thing and expressing the same joy. This made Ye Boxiong even more annoyed, and he wished he could throw the phone away.

After finally hanging up with the head of the Wang family, not long after, someone else called, again to congratulate him and urge him to get married.

At this moment, Ye Boxiong became alert. One person could be a coincidence, two people could be a coincidence, but three or four people calling the same number and saying the same thing was definitely not right!

"Could this be another scheme by Xiao Ran, trying to force marriage through public opinion?"

He frowned, pondering to himself, "But she's just a girl in her early twenties who rarely gets involved in family affairs. How could she get these prominent family leaders to call me on their own initiative?"
