Chapter 525 - 525 Marriage Alliance!525 Marriage Alliance!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Rong Rong said, “Uncle, I, I already have an engagement...”
Thank you readers!
Her eldest uncle who was the family leader sighed. “Rong Rong, you and Dr. Xu have not officially announced your engagement yet, so it’s not considered one. I believe that for the sake of the family, you would be willing, right?”
Rong Rong was about to speak, but Matriarch Rong walked over and took her hand, crying, “Rong Rong, your uncle and I have been good to you. When the Shen family had trouble, you came to give Miss Shen money, and we also helped you through your difficult times. When your affairs caused a stir, many people pointed fingers at the Rong family, but we did not blame you at all. Little Rong, you were raised as the legitimate daughter when we were still undivided. For the sake of the family, please do this for your aunt!”
After speaking, Matriarch Rong was about to kneel to Rong Rong.
Rong Rong quickly held her up.
Rong Rong had a very happy childhood. Back then, not only were her parents doting on her, but even her uncle and aunt were very tolerant of her.
She had truly enjoyed the honor that the Rong family brought her. So, although she had always known that she would eventually have to marry into another family, she did not have any aversion to the idea of an arranged marriage.
Now, it was just a matter of marrying into the royal family...
For a moment, she didn’t say anything and just turned around to look for Dr. Xu...
But before she could look at him, Matriarch Rong spoke again, “I know you are a good child. Your uncle made the decision on this marriage, and you must agree to it. If you don’t agree, the second branch might not have such a good life anymore!”
They were forcing her!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRong Rong bit her lips and couldn’t speak for a moment.
At the same time, the leader of the Xu family suddenly stood up and said, “My family also agrees!”
As soon as he spoke, Matriarch Xu screamed, “Are you crazy?! I don’t agree! I absolutely don’t agree!”
The leader of the Xu family sighed. How could he bear to let his daughter suffer like this? But he had no other choice.
Recently, the three ancient families were imposing a blockade on their family, causing them to lose many orders. He had to agree, otherwise, the Xu family would surely collapse...
The Xu family was different from the other three families. They pursued a technological path, and all the chips in their storage were imported from overseas, which could be said to be fully controlled by the foreign royal family!
The Queen smiled and said, “Very good. If the Xu family agrees, I will issue an order tomorrow to continue all our previous collaborations.”
The leader of the Xu family clenched his fists, but he took a deep breath and nodded.
Finally, the Queen looked at Old Master Bai and said, half-smiling, “What about you, Old Bai?”
Old Master Bai and his wife exchanged a glance. Old Master Bai then looked at Jing Zhen, who was sitting at the second table. He had confidence that Jing Zhen would not sit idly by, so he answered straightforwardly, “The Bai family will not have a marriage alliance.”
Matriarch Bai nodded. “Our Bai family doesn’t have much ambition. It’s been good being the fourth-ranked family for thousands of years. The Shen family can resist for the sake of their granddaughter, and we can too.”
The Bai family’s industry was still doing well, as they were in the real estate business. They only dealt with land in China and built buildings here. Even if they were blocked by the royal family, they still had a way out. At most, they would lose some orders and profits, but it wouldn’t be as bad as the situation for the Xu and Rong families.
The Queen looked at Old Master Bai with a cold gaze. “Old Bai, are you sure? The real estate bubble is serious now. Isn’t your Bai family supposed to be transitioning?”
The leader of the Xu family clenched his fists, but he took a deep breath and nodded.
Finally, the Queen looked at Old Master Bai and said, half-smiling, ‘What about you, Old Bai?”
Old Master Bai and his wife exchanged a glance. Old Master Bai then looked at
Jing Zhen, who was sitting at the second table. He had confidence that Jing Zhen would not sit idly by, so he answered straightforwardly, “The Bai family will not have a marriage alliance.’
Matriarch Bai nodded. “Our Bai family doesn’t have much ambition. It’s been good being the fourth-ranked family for thousands of years. The Shen family can resist for the sake of their granddaughter, and we can too.”

The Queen looked at Old Master Bai with a cold gaze. “Old Bai, are you sure?
The real estate bubble is serious now. Isn’t your Bai family supposed to be transitioning?
As long as they were transitioning, they would be suppressed by the royal family!
Old Master Bai remained silent for a moment and ultimately did not agree.
However, sitting at the second table, the only unmarried Miss Bai, who was his granddaughter, suddenly stood up and said, “Grandfather, grandmother, I’m willing!”
Old Master Bai immediately looked at her!
Matriarch Bai was also angry. “You are a junior, what are you saying here? Sit down! ”
However, Miss Bai looked at them and said, “Grandmother, I see the light on in grandfather’s study every night. He has been staying up all night for several nights now. I know that the Bai family is at a critical moment of transition. If it fails, the Bai family will have nothing left! I’m the daughter of the Bai family who has always enjoyed the convenience and wealth the Bai family has brought me. So I must make some sacrifices... That’s why I’m willing!”
Matriarch Bai immediately shouted, “What are you willing to do? Do you know what it means to marry into the royal family?!”
Miss Bai replied, “It’s just a marriage alliance, right? I know that the status of women in Country A is low, and they can’t show themselves casually. Besides, I usually like being alone, so it doesn’t matter to me...’
Matriarch Bai still wanted to say something, but the Queen smiled. “Miss Bai is really nice. Making sacrifices for the sake of the family is admirable. Don’t worry, when you marry into our family, I’ll create a golden cage just for you in your courtyard. You can do whatever you want...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMiss Bai bit her lip.
She understood that the second half of her life would probably be spent in that courtyard. She then bowed to the Queen and said, “Thank you.” Then she sat down.
Old Master Bai and Matriarch Bai looked at their youngest granddaughter in amazement. Normally, she was obedient and sensible, but they had never expected her to show such courage at a critical moment.
Both of their eyes turned red. At that moment, everyone at the main table looked gloomy.
When Shen Yuansong saw that the situation had escalated to this point, he remained silent for a moment before speaking to the three families, “There is really no need for you to send your daughters over. If you want to resist, Shen’s family will stand with you!’
Unexpectedly, Matriarch Xu became angry after hearing his words!
She stood up abruptly, trembling all over as she pointed at Shen Yuansong.
‘Stand with us? How can the Shen family stand with us? Your pharmaceutical industry has Professor Z to help you solve your problems, but what about our family? Can you help us solve our problems? Old Master Shen, I respect you as my elder, so I have been enduring this all along. But now, just look at what you’ve done! It’s because you feel sorry for your granddaughter that our daughter has to marry into the royal family! All of this was caused by the Shen family!”
After she finished her tirade, tears streamed down her face. Matriarch Xu’s daughter was her own flesh and blood! She doted on both Xu Hao and her own daughter.
Matriarch Xu’s outburst caused Miss Xu, who was sitting at the second table, to burst into tears immediately. “I won’t marry, I won’t marry over there... Waaah, Dad, please don’t agree...”
However, Leader Xu remained silent with a dark expression.
Rong Rong stood there blankly and exchanged a glance with Dr. Xu. Their eyes were full of unwillingness. She knew that she had no obligation to marry with the status of the eldest daughter of the main branch, but she also knew that if she didn’t agree, the main branch would definitely put pressure on the second branch, and her parents’ future wouldn’t be easy. Moreover, Dr. Xu was a member of the Xu family and also had his parents to support. They relied on the Xu family for their livelihood.
Rong Rong and Dr. Xu were both powerless.
Therefore, they didn’t cry or make a fuss. Their eyes were full of reluctance and despair as they looked at each other.
Miss Bai also sat there dumbfounded, looking as though she had lost hope for the future.
This scene caused Shen Ruojing to clench her fists tightly. She looked at the Queen. The Queen’s gaze wasn’t on the three girls but on her.
The Queen suddenly spoke up, ‘Miss Shen, actually, we could have simplified everything and gone back to the beginning....”
