Chapter 160 - Eye-catching Betrothal Gifts.

"I really missed her embarrassed and shy look. She looks so cute and charming that way". Jessica said with pouted lips.

Seeing how shy his wife was, Liu Longwei smiled and hugged her closely. Then he tried talking to her, but all he got was, "Leave me alone", but the woman who wanted to be left alone was still hiding in his embrace.

So he smiled deeply before telling the others in a serious tone, "No more laughing, and no one here is allowed to tease my wife on this matter".

So that was how Chen Lihua was free from all the teasing.

So they all ate happily and enjoyed delicious desserts in different shapes, colours, and sizes.

Except for Chen Lihua and Liu Longwei, they were on the dance floor immediately the DJ changed the music to a POP.

Chen Lihua kept smiling as she watched them dance. So Liu Longwei gazed at her with an affectionate smile. So because of the loud music, he leaned in to whisper to her ear, "Are you comfortable?"

Chen Lihua then broke out from her daze, look at him with a smile, and then she nodded in a positive affirmation.

The engagement party finally came to an end, but soft music was still playing in the background when everyone presented their gifts to the couple.

The gifts were precisely for Chen Lihua as it seemed no one remembered her young billionaire husband. So sorry for him.

Liu Longwei's friends presented Chen Lihua with some jewellery and their business cards while telling her to contact them if she needed their assistance pertaining to their area of work.

They told her they will prepare bigger gifts for her at her wedding. As they didn't know her personality and what she would like since they haven't seen her before now, they just got her a little token.

Chen Lihua happily accepted their gifts and said, "No troubles, thank you".

Then her friends presented her with three wrapped gift boxes. 

As Angel handed one of the boxes over to her, she said, "Remember not to Squash it". Then Chen Lihua nodded with a smile while wondering what was inside the box that should be treated with care.

Jesse and Mark handed another one over to her. Then Jessica handed the last one to her.

Chen Lihua gave a 'thank you' speech to all of them.

Before leaving the venue with Liu Longwei, she spoke with her friends for a while.

There she found out from them that they have already booked their hotel rooms and return flight tickets because they were leaving China the next morning back to their country.

So they told Chen Lihua not to bother sending them to the Airport the next day. They gave her goodbye hugs.

Shortly before Chen Lihua left, Wu Bohai (family owns clubs, casino houses, and chains of hotels) stood in front of Chen Lihua and tried to give her a hug, but he was pulled back by Mu Boqin (Family owns Mining companies) and Li Da (Neurosurgeon, a family of neurosurgeons).

And laughter erupted from their mouths.

They bid farewell to the couple and each found their ways to their respective dwelling place.

It was not a problem for Chen Lihua's white friends to communicate with the rest because they all knew, understood and spoke English.

Getting home, Chen Lihua admired the decorations in the living room. If the Sofa was still there, she would have sat on it to continue admiring the beautifully decorated room. But unfortunately, the furniture had long been cleared out during the course of decoration.

As Chen Lihua and Liu Longwei stood in the middle of the corridor, between the doors to their rooms, Chen Lihua said to Liu Longwei with a beautiful smile plastered on her face, "Longwei thank you for today, I really had fun which I haven't had in a long time".

Then she proceeded to give him a hug.

Liu Longwei smile as he hugged her back. One hand patting her hair and the other on her bareback (hand in between her hair and back).

When Chen Lihua leaned away, he kissed her forehead and they said goodbye to each other with a longing smile for each other before going into their respective rooms.

The next morning, explosive news was all over the stations, radio and TV stations.

The news was on a particular couple, but with different headings.

That morning, the Internet was chaotic. Some fans sent their congratulatory messages.

With this news, basically, everyone knew about Chen Lihua and Liu Longwei's marriage and upcoming wedding.

Now, the world knew who Chen Lihua's hidden husband was.

The heads of departments that doubted Liu Longwei's marriage were slapped on their faces as they watched the video the reporter got from interviewing Liu Longwei and Chen Lihua.

Amidst all of this chaos, the Liu and Chen families were at peace.

And Liu Longwei chose that morning to send Chen Lihua's bridal price and betrothal gifts to the Chen residence.

The Liu family had already met with Lady Chen and a few from the Chen Family to discuss the bridal price and other things required.

The meeting went perfectly well because these two families were acquainted with each other, and money had never been a problem for them.

The betrothal is an important part of the Chinese wedding tradition. During this exchange, the groom's family or the groom presents the bride's family with betrothal gifts to symbolize prosperity and good luck.

So in this case, Liu Longwei paid two times the money required for Chen Lihu's bride price. Then for the betrothal gifts, the Liu family sent gifts in even numbers.

For the food items, they sent two bottles of expensive wine, fruits, tea, peanut, and date.

For Jewellery, they sent Gold wristwatches, chains, and bracelets, Pearl necklace and earnings, Diamond earrings, hair clips and pins with gems embedded in them, etc.

For other items, they gave Chen Lihua some properties under her name, land deeds, and 2% shares of Liu's cooperation.

These betrothal gifts showed how much the Liu Family loved and valued Chen Lihua.

Imagine if the Public should get wind of this, I don't think they will be able to take the blow, especially for some haters lurking around with nothing to do, but hatred and envy in their hearts.
