Mu Qing, hounded by marriage pressure to the point of not daring to return home, rented her elder brother's classmate, Ye Junbo, to pretend to be her husband, all for the sake of a peaceful lif...
Li Ke tried hard to recall what happened yesterday, but he didn't remember that his suit had a tear.
But Jun Li said that his clothes were torn because he helped her fight, so she had to compensate him with new clothes.
"What brand of clothes does the Third Young Master wear? What size are they? I'll go buy him two new sets of clothes this afternoon."
Jun Li told Li Ke his usual clothing brands and sizes, and added, "Buy the sizes I tell you, you won't go wrong. After you buy the clothes, please send them to the dry cleaners for me."
"oh."
Li Ke said "oh".
She had to bleed profusely.
He always wears branded suits, each one is very expensive, and she has to buy him two, which will cost her a lot of money.
One month's salary is not enough to pay for his clothes.
"I also have to attend a social event tonight. Since we signed the agreement, you should pack up early in the evening and I will go back to pick you up to accompany me to the social event and help me drink."
"good."
Li Ke felt bad about having to compensate him for two sets of clothes, but he was able to earn it back from him immediately, and his mood improved.
Seeing that her mood had improved, Jun Li wanted to laugh.
This girl is really immersed in the pile of money now.
The two of them sat on the sofa for a while, and then Miss Jiang arrived.
A few minutes later.
In the private room that Jun Li had already arranged, Li Ke politely asked Miss Jiang to sit down.
Today's meal is her treat.
Miss Jiang was also polite to Li Ke.
She said she had met Li Ke before, but they had never spoken to each other.
Li Ke smiled and said, "Miss Jiang mentioned it, and I have some impression of it."
Her father thought of marrying her off to a top-tier wealthy family. Whenever there was a banquet, he would find a way to get an invitation and then take her to the banquet with his stepmother.
However, she did not make friends with those rich girls, and they did not want to be friends with her, let alone catch a rich husband. One reason was that she did not want to be used by her father, and the other was that they disliked her.
Her biological father treats her badly, her stepmother is also mean, and she has two younger siblings who are much older than her. Maybe he feels that if he marries her, he needs to support her younger siblings.
After the Li family went bankrupt, many wealthy ladies must have been glad that they did not choose Li Ke as their daughter-in-law. Otherwise, they would have been faced with an in-law who owed tens of millions of dollars. They would have been reluctant to help pay off the debt, but if they did not lend a helping hand, they would have been accused of being heartless and ungrateful for not helping their in-law in times of trouble.
"Miss Jiang, our Third Young Master was really going to meet Miss Jiang at Suiyuan Coffee Shop yesterday. He passed by my beauty salon and saw someone causing trouble there. The Third Young Master was kind enough to help, so he delayed his trip. He didn't mean to stand Miss Jiang up."
After Li Ke exchanged greetings with Miss Jiang, he quickly explained to Miss Jiang on behalf of Jun Li.
Miss Jiang looked at Jun Li.
Jun Li sat next to Li Ke, and Miss Jiang sat opposite them.
While Li Ke was explaining to Miss Jiang, he just sat there leisurely filling his own glass of wine, not looking at Miss Jiang, nor responding, as if he was just sitting there as a mural.
Miss Jiang knew that Jun Li didn't want to go on a blind date with her.
She also breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he said to Li Ke, "Miss Li, I won't be angry anymore now that I know the reason. However, the Third Young Master and I are not destined to be together. It's rare for us to have a proper blind date, and the Third Young Master didn't even show up. I was really angry at the time, very angry."
Li Ke said repeatedly, "Miss Jiang, I'm so sorry. It's my fault that our Third Young Master can't go on a blind date with you. Next time, such an accident won't happen. Miss Jiang and our Third Young Master, please exchange phone numbers and add each other on WeChat. We can make an appointment to have coffee together."
After Miss Jiang drank half a bowl of soup gracefully, she said to Li Ke, "Miss Li, you're the only one explaining and apologizing to me, while your Third Young Master remains silent. I guess he doesn't want to go on a blind date with me."
"That's fine, the Jun family's threshold is too high, I can't afford it."
Miss Jiang took her Hermès bag and said to Li Ke, "Miss Li, when your beauty salon opens, please give me a membership and I'll support you. Thank you for treating me to dinner, Miss Li. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
With that, she stood up, pulled out her chair, picked up her bag and left.
"Miss Jiang, Miss Jiang."
Li Ke instinctively stood up and chased Miss Jiang out of the private room.
After Miss Jiang sat down, she ate a few chopsticks of food and drank half a bowl of soup, and didn't eat anything else.
I don’t know if the food was not to her liking, or if she was still angry at Junli for standing her up.
Miss Jiang did not stop, but just raised her hand and waved, indicating that Li Ke did not need to see her off.
Li Ke wanted to keep her, but failed.
After Miss Jiang left, Li Ke turned around and returned to the private room, where he saw Jun Li sitting alone at the dining table, eating with great relish.
Li Ke was pissed off by him.
It was he and his wife who asked her to treat Miss Jiang to a meal and explain everything to her.
But he didn't say a word.
Normally his tongue was as sharp as a razor, but when he faced Miss Jiang just now, he acted like a mute.
Li Ke complained in his heart: The Third Young Master has been single until now because of his own strength.
With his attitude like this, he may not be able to get married even in ten years.
"Third Young Master."
After complaining about Jun Li in his heart, Li Ke came over and said to him, "Third Young Master, why didn't you say anything just now? Miss Jiang is still angry. If you had just explained yourself, said sorry, asked for Miss Jiang's contact information, and arranged to have coffee next time, everything would have cleared up."
"You are so good, you seem to be mute and don't say a word."
Jun Li took another piece of food and put it into his mouth. After finishing it, he said, "This is your treat. You should explain to Miss Jiang and clarify for me that I didn't mean to not go on a blind date with her."
Li Ke: “…”
There is nothing wrong with what he said.
It's what she should do.
After a while, Li Ke asked him, "What if Miss Jiang is still angry? This is a blind date arranged for you by your wife herself."
"You caused my blind date to leave, saying she was out of my league. There's no redeeming the relationship. What do you think we should do?"
Li Ke: "...Third Young Master, I only just realized now that you can confuse right and wrong."
"It's obviously you who doesn't want to go on a blind date with Miss Jiang. Yesterday, you even threatened me to accompany you to meet Miss Jiang, deliberately wanting Miss Jiang to misunderstand. Now Miss Jiang has done what you wished and doesn't want to develop a relationship with you anymore, and you actually blame me for it."
She also tried very hard to help him save the situation, but it was his own fault that he was not strong enough.
Who can I blame?
Jun Li looked at her twice and said with a smile: "Let's eat, and then go buy me some clothes."
Li Ke: “…”
Jun Li's noble image collapsed in her world.
Li Ke had no appetite and was annoyed by Jun Li's shamelessness.
Jun Li said to her while eating, "It's your money. If you don't eat it, it will be wasted, and you will feel even more painful. Of course, if you have so much money that you can use it as a quilt, then waste it. It's not my money anyway."
