Chapter 808
After taking a look, Ning Ran found herself liking all of the rings.
There was no doubt that the diamonds were huge, so huge they were enough for one to flaunt their wealth with
them.
However, that aside, the more important thing was that the rings were of top-notch design, unlike those that could
be found over the counters in average shopping malls.
Even so, Ning Ran could not bring herself to say she liked them all, as that would make her look rather greedy.
“I think they're all pretty nice,” she commented.
What she meant was she liked all of them.
Yet, Nan Chen furrowed his brows. “That means nothing really catches your eye?”
“That's not what I meant. I like them all. It's tough to choose only one. How about you help me pick one? Will the
remaining ones be returned after a choice is made?” Ning Ran asked.
“Daddy has said that they can be used as spares. You can wear them when you like, Mommy. I can also wear them
when I grow up!” Erbao hurriedly explained.
“That's right. Erbao understood it very well.” Nan Chen nodded.
“So you mean these are all mine?” Ning Ran asked.
She had inadvertently exposed her true feelings by making that query.
In truth, she was not a greedy person. It was just that she genuinely liked all the rings and could not make a choice
between them.
“Of course. You can wear any of the rings you like. In fact, you can even throw away the ones you don't like,” Nan
Chen said.
“No, no, no. I can't throw these rings away. They aren't cheap. How can I throw them away? I have to keep them, of
course,” Ning Ran hastily replied.
“So, that's a yes?”
His eyes sparkled with joy as he stared at her intently.
“Yes to what?” she asked despite knowing the answer.

“You've accepted the rings. What else can it be? The engagement, obviously,” Nan Chen answered.
“I haven't thought about it thoroughly. Engagement is a serious matter. I have to give it some thought,” Ning Ran
stated with a smile.
“What else is there to consider? We already have two kids, so how is there still a need to consider whether we
should get engaged?” The man appeared a little displeased.
As a matter of fact, she was merely joking and did not expect him to take it so seriously.
“Mommy is just trying to be reserved, Daddy. She doesn't mean that she disagrees. It's normal for girls to be a bit
more reserved.” Dabao tried to ease the tension in the air.
Ning Ran was thrilled when she heard the boy's words. I can't believe my son called me a girl. Well, it's not like I was
pretending to be young, but my son's the one who thinks I'm still young!
“Since engagement is such a major matter, I think neither you nor me can have the final say.” Nan Chen suddenly
made a shocking statement.
That stupefied her. Then who has the final say?
That stupefied her. Then who has the final say?
“Do you mean we have to get the approval of your grandpa and grandma?” she asked.
“No.” Nan Chen shook his head.
“Then who?”
“Our engagement is an important matter in this family. We should decide by voting,” he uttered with a solemn
expression.
“Voting?” Ning Ran was confused.
“Yes, voting. Dabao and Erbao should have their voting rights,” Nan Chen answered in all seriousness.
“They're still so young. They don't have the capacity to make decisions for civil affairs like this...”
“That's only valid in the legal system. But in this household, they're all important members. They definitely have the
right to vote,” he said with a stern countenance.
Dabao and Erbao felt an unprecedented sense of respect at that very instant. Instinctively, they straightened their
backs.
“Yes, I think Daddy makes a lot of sense.” Erbao immediately showed her support.
Dabao also nodded. “That's right. We may not have the capacity in terms of law, but we have it in this family. We
are allowed to vote!”
Poker Face is really cunning, huh? My darlings have always stood by my side. He's obviously doing this to sweet-talk
them, and his plan seems to have worked!
“All right, all right. You all have the right to vote. Let's vote, then.” Ning Ran had no other choice but to give in to
them.
“Okay. I hereby announce that we will now cast votes on whether Nan Chen and Ning Ran should get engaged.
Please raise your hand if you are in favor of the engagement.”
As soon as Nan Chen finished saying those words, he raised his hand high.
Watching the scene, Ning Ran found it to be a little childish, yet at the same time, entertaining.
With a somber expression, Dabao lifted his hand as well.
Unlike Dabao, Erbao was way more dramatic. Not only did she raise two hands in the air, but she was also ready to
climb up the chair as she was afraid her hands were not conspicuous enough.
“All right. Let me count the votes now.” Nan Chen then pretended to start counting. “One, two, three... Excuse me,
miss. Are you objecting or abstaining from voting? But either way, that's not important. It's a landslide victory with
three against one. I hereby declare that the decision for the engagement has been passed. Please put your hands
together and give a round of applause.”
After making that speech, he took the lead in clapping. At that sight, Dabao and Erbao followed suit.
The three of them were overjoyed and exchanged looks of smiles. Ning Ran could not help but feel as though she
was bullied by the trio after seeing their reaction.
Wow. Something like this actually exists?
“Mommy, it's time for you to deliver your speech.” Dabao reminded her.
Ning Ran wore a wry smile. “Do I have the right to speak? Am I still important here? I don't even know where I am
now.”
“Of course, you're important. You're the female lead of the engagement. You're the bride.” The boy chuckled.
Seeing the bright smiles on her children's faces, she decided to accept reality and let them have their way.
All right. As long as you all are happy, do whatever you wish.

“I'm all right.” Ning Ran only gave a three-word speech.
The corners of Nan Chen's lips quirked upward slightly. She's indeed annoyed.
“Well said. Let's give her a round of applause.” He then started clapping.
Both Dabao and Erbao quickly did as told.
“Why don't Daddy and Mommy get married tomorrow, then?” Erbao suddenly exclaimed.
“Why?” Nan Chen asked.
“You have to get married after getting engaged. Since Mommy will be home tomorrow, you two should just get
married. I can be the flower girl.”
At the thought of being able to participate in the fun, the little girl began to dance in excitement.
It doesn't matter if it's an engagement or a wedding. The more important thing is that there'll be fun!
“How can they do it so hastily? Daddy and Mommy's wedding must be a grand one. They will need lots of time to
prepare, right?” Dabao turned to look at their father.
“Yes, yes. Dabao is right.” Nan Chen nodded.
“But you can't get engaged for nothing, isn't it?” Dabao said.
“What do you suggest, then?” Ning Ran figured that their son still had something to say.
“There should be substantial progress since Daddy and Mommy are already engaged. I think there's no need to
hold the wedding tomorrow. But you can register your marriage first!”
Nan Chen solemnly nodded. “I think Dabao's point makes a lot of sense! Registering for our marriage is a fuss-free
process. I think we can do it first!”
“Great! Great!” Erbao instinctively clapped her hands in delight.
“We'll talk about it again.” Ning Ran was, however, rather indifferent about it.
Her lack of enthusiasm, in fact, was not because she did not like the idea but because the wrong person put it
forward.
Why is Dabao the one who suggested it? Shouldn't Nan Chen be the one doing it?
“I don't think there's a need for any consideration. Let's do it tomorrow morning. I'll call Jiang Zhe now and get him
to cancel my schedule for tomorrow so that we can focus on registering our marriage!” Nan Chen declared.
“Do you need to be so anxious about it? There's no hurry, isn't it?” Ning Ran uttered.
“There's no need for much planning. Tomorrow sounds great. We'll set it as that. I'll call Jiang Zhe right away.”
After speaking, he walked to the side to make the call.
