After Cao Feng arrived at Daxing City's Gao Mansion, he could enter without any notice.
This was because his relationship with the Zhangsun siblings was exceptionally good. In the past, he had come to the Gao Manor many times and often went out with the siblings.
The servants of the Gao Manor naturally recognized him and let him pass.
Cao Feng brought Li Cunxiao through the main gate, and the servants of the Gao Manor had already informed them of his arrival.
"Ta Ta…"
As the two of them walked towards the hall, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded.
"Brother Cao Feng."
A clear voice immediately followed.
Then, he saw Zhangsun Wuji, who was smiling from ear to ear, walking up to him from the side.
"Shouldn't you be very busy today? Why do you have the time to come to the Gao Manor?”
Zhangsun Wuji teased when he arrived in front of Cao Feng.
"Brother Feng."
Zhangsun Wugou, who followed closely behind, also had a face full of joy.
Clearly, the siblings welcomed Cao Feng's arrival.
This kind of welcome came from the bottom of his heart, without any deliberate pretentiousness.
"Long time no see."
Cao Feng responded enthusiastically.
The group exchanged a few simple greetings before Zhangsun Wuji led Cao Feng into the hall.
"Feng 'er is here?"
Gao Shilian came out of the hall with a smile on his face.
Because of the relationship between the Zhangsun siblings and Cao Feng, he treated Cao Feng as his nephew.
This was also from the bottom of his heart, not just to deal with it.
"Uncle Gao."
Cao Feng bowed.
"Come, sit."
Then, Gao Shilian invited him to sit down and asked someone to bring him a cup of hot tea.
"Feng 'er, you came this time to invite us to the engagement banquet, right?”
Gao Shilian asked with a smile.
"Haha, of course. After all, Brother Cao Feng's engagement banquet is in a few days.”
Before Cao Feng could reply, Zhangsun Wuji interrupted.
They all thought that Cao Feng had come to visit because of the engagement banquet.
"Congratulations, Brother Feng."
Zhangsun Wugou, who was still smiling, turned gloomy after hearing this.
However, she quickly pulled herself together and forced a smile.
"Uncle, I'm here for something else.”
Cao Feng said without hesitation.
"What is it?"
There was something more important than the engagement. Gao Shilian was a little confused.
"Propose marriage."
At this moment, Cao Feng directly stated his intentions.
"What?"
His words were like a bolt of lightning. Zhangsun Wuji and Gao Shilian's expressions changed drastically.
Zhangsun Wugou, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment. His entire face was slightly red as he secretly rejoiced.
"Brother Feng, what's going on? You don't care about Sister Xiu Ning anymore?”
Out of curiosity, Zhangsun Wugou asked.
"Swoosh!"
Gao Shilian and Zhangsun Wuji looked at Cao Feng. Clearly, they also wanted to know the reason.
Something big must have happened to propose marriage two days before the engagement banquet.
"Li Xiu Ning is not worthy of marrying me.”
Cao Feng was silent for a moment before coldly saying.
Then, he told her about Li Xiuning's escape from the marriage and the letter she had left behind.
"Something like this actually happened?"
Gao Shilian frowned.
"Preposterous! What is the Li family trying to do?”
Zhangsun Wuji was also furious.
Zhangsun Wugou's expression was even more unsightly. They were all clear what escaping from their relatives at this juncture would bring to the Cao Clan and himself.
"The rumors outside about how Lady Li and Li Xiu Ning conduct themselves in the world now seem to be a joke.”
Gao Shilian sneered.
"If you're unwilling, you can explain it before the engagement banquet.”
Zhangsun Wuji felt indignant for his good friend.
"Is it necessary to express your attitude in such a way at a critical moment? Isn't this harming the Cao family?”
With just a few words, he instantly revealed the pros and cons of this matter.
"The incomparably selfish Li family."
Similarly, Zhangsun Wugou grumbled unhappily.
"The Li family, one of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, is only so-so.”
Gao Shilian was even more experienced. The Li family's actions were extremely inappropriate. Moreover, the two families were old friends. How could they end this mess?
If the engagement banquet was held as scheduled, how Cao Feng of the Cao family would face the guests from all directions would have to be faced by the younger generation themselves.
To the declining Cao family, the humiliation brought by Li Xiuning's escape would accompany Cao Feng for the rest of his life and even leave a mark on him.
"Feng 'er, is that why you want to propose marriage to Wugou?”
Gao Shilian asked as he collected his thoughts.
When he asked the question, a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes.
When such a thing happened, the junior Feng 'er appeared very calm and handled it in a more appropriate manner.
He was completely different from the Cao Feng he knew, especially his aura.
There seemed to be a sense of familiarity between his brows.
"Not bad."
Cao Feng did not hide it. Since he had told the Gao Manor about this, it meant that he trusted the Gao Manor.
Judging from their reactions, his decision was not wrong.
"Wugou, are you willing to be engaged to me?”
Then, he looked at Zhangsun Wugou.
"Hmm…"
Wugou was stunned for a moment and subconsciously nodded.
That fair face looked…A red glow had already spread.
"Uncle?"
Zhangsun Wugou suddenly remembered that he had not asked his elders about this, so he hurriedly looked at his uncle.
"How can I refuse?"
Gao Shilian stroked his beard and smiled when he saw Wugou's expression.
First of all, Feng 'er was someone worth entrusting to.
Moreover, how could he not understand Wugou's thoughts?
Moreover, he had watched Cao Feng grow up, so he had a better understanding of this junior.
"Thank you for your help, Uncle."
Hearing this, Zhangsun Wugou was overjoyed.
No matter what, she could not imagine that her relationship with Brother Feng would actually turn around.
"Haha, in this case, wouldn't Cao Feng and I be even closer?”
Zhangsun Wuji laughed loudly.
This matter was basically confirmed.
"Thank you, Uncle Gao."
Cao Feng bowed to Gao Shilian.
"Feng 'er, there's no need to be so polite. Since you've confirmed it, you should quickly prepare.”
Gao Shilian paused for a moment. Time was indeed a little tight. The engagement banquet was in two days.
"Alright, then I'll take my leave for now."
Cao Feng knew that time was of the essence, so he spoke.
"Go ahead."
Gao Shilian waved his hand.
After the matter was settled, Cao Feng did not delay any longer. He quickly stood up and left the Gao Manor.
"Wuji, go and call the executive over.”
Gao Shilian ordered immediately.
"Yes."
A moment later, Zhangsun Wuji arrived with Gao Xing.
"Father, what is it?"
Gao Xing bowed and asked.
"Send people to send out wedding invitations to all the guests and decorate the Gao residence.”
Gao Shilian ordered.
"Ah?"
Gao Xing was stunned.
These words were somewhat inexplicable. Could it be that there was a happy event in the Gao residence recently?
"Brother, let me tell you.”
Zhangsun Wuji patted Gao Xing's shoulder.
After saying that, he recounted the entire matter of Cao Feng's arrival.
"Is it true now?"
Gao Xing was also happy. He looked at the person in question, Chang Wugou, with a questioning look in his eyes.
"Yes…"
Zhangsun Wugou's face turned red from embarrassment, but he still responded.
