Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 111 - An Oath

Chapter 111 - An Oath

As expected, the older the wiser.

The Ning family's flower baskets caused a huge commotion.

Everyone's attention s.h.i.+fted from Zhuang Ji's opening to the question of who was Zhuang Ji's owner. Moreover, a group of reporters was present as well.

This was because, prior to this, Mu Chen had organized a small press conference meant to introduce Zhuang Ji and to showcase Zhuang Ji's works.

When Mu Chen went on stage, he did not waste time and said, "Thank you, everyone, for coming today. Thank you for the love and care you've shown Zhuang Ji. Before anything else, I'd like to make an announcement on such a festive day!"

Under the reporters' antic.i.p.atory gazes, Mu Chen walked to the side of the stage and reached out to Song Ning. Then, he brought her to the center of the stage before he cleared his throat and said, "Let me introduce my wife, Song Ning, to everyone!"

The reporters were stunned by this reveal.. As soon as they regained their senses, they began to click the shutters on their cameras in a frenzy.

Song Ning bowed before she said, "h.e.l.lo, everyone! Thank you all for attending Zhuang Ji's opening."

At this moment, Mu Chen, who was still holding Song Ning's hand, took over. "I know there are many people who are curious about Mu Group's involvement with Zhuang Ji, especially when the Mu Group has no dealings in this industry. I want to clarify that Zhuang Ji isn't part of the Mu Group's business; it belongs to my wife. I'm only helping my wife to manage Zhuang Ji upon her request. So, in a way, you can say she's my boss. Whether Zhuang Ji does well in the future or not will affect my happiness. This is a test from my wife."

The reporters laughed at Mu Chen's playful words.

Song Ning was both happy and shy when she heard Mu Chen's words.

"President Mu, if the business doesn't do well, will Mrs. Mu make you kneel?" a reporter asked jokingly.

Mu Chen shook his head and said with a straight face, "There'd be no need for Mrs. Mu to make me kneel. I'll take the initiative to kneel and reflect on my mistake."

Mu Chen's words stunned the people who heard them.

"President Mu, you really have deep feelings for your wife!"

Mu Chen smiled and replied, "Of course. She's the one I chose so I'll definitely love her with all my heart. I made an oath in front of my grandmother; nothing can separate me and my wife except for death. I will only love Song Ning in this life. As for the next life, we'll have to see if I perform well in this life."

After Mu Chen finished speaking, he looked at Song Ning tenderly, causing her to blush.

"Mrs. Mu, President Mu is really good to you!"

Song Ning smiled shyly as she said, "I must've saved an entire planet in my previous life to have such blessings."

The reporters laughed.

The atmosphere was very lively at this moment.

This was the first time the reporters saw Mu Chen being so approachable. These experienced reporters were naturally not going to let such a good opportunity to ask questions slip past them.

"President Mu, tell us about your love story."

Mu Chen thought about it for a moment before he said, "My wife and I got married first before we fell in love with each other. From the moment I saw her, I knew she was the one. Therefore, I decided to marry her first to ensure she doesn't run away before I begin to court her and make her fall in love with me!"

A female reporter with bright eyes said excitedly, "How romantic! However, how does one know if someone is the one for them with just a glance?"

This time, Song Ning answered the question. "I think it's all fated. For example, I still remember the first time I saw him. At that time, the sun shone on him, and I remember thinking that my mother must have sent him to me…" She paused for a moment as she looked at the reporters before she continued to say, "My mother's name is Zhuang Yi; she's the founder of Zhuang Ji. The exhibits all of you saw are my mother's works from when she was alive. Keeping Zhuang Ji alive is a promise I made my mother; it's my mother's legacy. I hope people will learn to love the art of Chinese embroidery…"

Mu Chen turned slightly and pulled Song Ning to the forefront of the stage. She was today's main character, after all.

Although Song Ning had a habit of burning her head in the sand and was uncomfortable with being in the limelight, it did not mean she was not capable of holding her own. When she spoke, her voice held a soothing and quiet charm. One would involuntarily listen to her when she spoke. Who knew if she was born with this or if it was because she was a doctor.

At this moment, a reporter asked, "Mrs. Mu, I saw a few flower baskets outside that were sent by President Ning of the Ning Group. May I ask what's your relations.h.i.+p with him?"

As soon as the reporter's voice fell, the crowd immediately fell silent. Their eyes were all trained on Song Ning at this moment.
