Chapter 1054: Chapter 145 The Name of Sun Tzu
Lin Zhiyin’s parents, looking at those boxes of invaluable dowry, were completely numb.
Just any one of those things was something they might not be able to afford in their entire lives.
And now, so vividly, they all lay before their eyes.
The overwhelming wealth was so effortlessly smashing down on their heads.
“Am I… not dreaming?” Father Lin muttered to himself.
Mother Lin pinched him hard on the waist: “Does it hurt?”
“It hurts.” Father Lin grimaced: “This is real, not a dream.”
Their family’s future was transformed because of Lin Zhiyin.
From now on, it became inestimably precious.
Jiang Xu didn’t find Lin Zhiyin’s parents’ reaction surprising at all.
Their performance was already pretty good.

For someone with a slightly weaker will, they’d probably have passed out laughing.
In the evening, both families had dinner at the largest and most luxurious open-air restaurant in Agricultural Country.
Well, this restaurant was also owned by Jiang Xu.
“Goodness me, this is the first time in my life I’m coming to such a luxurious place,” Mother Lin marveled, like a country bumpkin, looking here and there, touching everything.
Father Lin and Lin Zhiyin didn’t act much better.
For middle to low class people, it was natural to be shocked by everything on their first entry into high society.
The Jiang family didn’t laugh at them for this.
They too had grown from ordinary people, step by step, to where they were today.
Jiang Xu ordered light dishes for dinner tonight.
The appetites of Lin Zhiyin’s family were all on the lighter side.
Unlike his own family, who liked all flavors: sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy.
After calming down their excitement, Father Lin and Mother Lin still felt pressured when facing Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo.
They behaved quite restrained at the moment.
However, with Jiang Xu’s deliberate guidance, the atmosphere quickly became harmonious.
“Right.” Mother Lin suddenly turned to Lin Zhiyin: “You haven’t told me yet whether it’s a boy or a girl.”
“A girl.” Lin Zhiyin subconsciously touched her belly: “I just found out yesterday from the check-up, haven’t had time to tell anyone yet.”
“That’s great, a boy is good, a boy is good.”
Father Lin and Mother Lin were both very happy, also secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
They knew that for a top-tier family like Jiang Xu’s, having a boy was definitely needed.
If the firstborn was male, then Lin Zhiyin’s future status would be secure.
Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo were also unaware of this news and were overjoyed upon hearing it.
Though they would love their grandchild just the same, whether a boy or a girl.
But having the first one as a boy was certainly better.
“How about, you pick a name for the child?” Father Lin said, looking at Jiang Xu.
After getting a bit more comfortable, he started to grow bolder.
Everyone else also turned their gaze towards Jiang Xu.
“Mm…” Jiang Xu nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: “Let’s call him Jiang Yuze.”
“Jiang Yuze?” Father Lin repeated twice before asking: “Does this name have any special meaning?”
Jiang Xu explained with a smile: “‘Yu’ refers to the ancient sage king Yu the Great, who was meritorious in controlling the waters and blessing the people, showcasing responsibility;
‘Ze’ means nourishment and grace, symbolizing the boy’s capacity to have Yu the Great’s magnanimity, bestowing benefits upon others.”
Everyone brightened up after hearing Jiang Xu’s explanation.
This name was very good!
Especially Lin Zhiyin, who repeatedly murmured the name to herself.
The more she repeated it, the more she liked it.
And she also grasped something else.
Jiang Xu held high hopes for this grandson still unborn!
It was very likely that in the future, all of his properties would be entrusted into the hands of her child.
Besides feeling happy, I just feel a heavy burden on my shoulders.
After the meal, Jiang Xu had someone send Lin Zhiyin’s family back.
Jiang Lanxi followed them as well.
Jiang Xu said with a laugh and scold, “This kid has all his thoughts on his fiancée now, not caring about us at all.”
“Exactly,” An Nuonuo wrinkled her nose, “Fortunately, I still have Brother Xu.”
The two are already an old couple, but most of the time, An Nuonuo still calls him Brother Xu.
It is a kind of reminiscence.
Every time she calls him Brother Xu, An Nuonuo’s memories retreat to her high school days, back to when she first came into contact with Jiang Xu.
It was the most beautiful scene in her life, and the beginning of her happiness.
“Let’s go,” Jiang Xu said as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders, “We’re going back to sleep.”
Although the physical states of the couple are still like those of people in their twenties.
They have already started to take care of their health.
They make sure to sleep before midnight every day.
They must sleep for at least nine hours.
As one ages, one becomes increasingly cautious about taking care of one’s health.
A week later, Jiang Lanxi and Lin Zhiyin’s engagement was officially set.
This event was also publicized by the media.
In the future, Jiang Lanxi is to succeed Jiang Xu’s position, so his major life events are naturally made public.
This includes Lin Zhiyin, who also needs to make public appearances.
Moreover, Lin Zhiyin’s related information has also been officially revealed to the public.
With a clean family background, there’s nothing to hide.
And it’s quite inspirational.
It could also encourage a portion of people to strive harder.
The engagement banquet was not lavish; it was rather simple.
One table featured ten dishes and two soups, costing about ten thousand yuan in total.
Of course, the outward display must not be too extravagant, otherwise, it would not have a good influence.
The entire Kuai Yin platform, both domestically and internationally, was dominated by news of their wedding today.
Especially Jiang Lanxi.
On this one day alone, the number of searches and mentions of his name reached a staggering ten billion.
A man who couldn’t be more perfect.
A body with golden proportions.
A superb family background.
Unparalleled intelligence.
Top-level appearance.
And his immensely vast future prospects.
With so many favorable traits combined in one person, it’s impossible not to be adored by everyone.
Hearing of his engagement today, numerous girls broke down in tears, feeling collectively heartbroken.
[Sob, sob, sob, Lan Xi, my Lan Xi!]
[Calm down above, he’s still alive.]
[I’m so jealous of Lin Zhiyin, she gets to ‘eat so well’.]
[Lin Zhiyin’s fate is too good, she gets to marry my Brother Lan Xi.]
[My Brother Lan Xi is going to marry another woman today, I need a handsome guy who’s eighteen, 1.9 meters tall, with six-pack abs to comfort me.]
[Brother Lan Xi, sorry, this is where I conclude my farewell today.]
[It’s okay above, it’s only natural.]
…
After the engagement, Jiang Lanxi and Lin Zhiyin were nestled together, looking at these comments online.
“They’re so funny,” Lin Zhiyin said with a laugh, “But they’re not wrong, I am ‘eating very well’.”
Jiang Lanxi looked at her tenderly, “Do you want to eat now?”
“Yes,” Lin Zhiyin licked her lips, “But before we eat, I have a question…”
