Upon hearing this, Ma Jun's eyes widened immediately. How could that be?
Would someone as proud and arrogant as Li Duo abandon everything in the Li family for Wen Shu?
After leaving the Li family, Li Duo is all alone. Will outsiders really recognize Li Duo as a person?
Ma Jun admitted that Li Duo was a very capable person; otherwise, the Li family's performance during the years he led the family would have remained consistently high, no less so than when Li Zhonggeng was in power.
"So how does he live now? He made a lot of money after leaving the Li family."
Ma Jun admitted that she was a bit gossipy, but she was genuinely curious.
Wen Shu then explained Li Duo's current job, concluding, "His monthly salary is quite good now, enough to support his family without any problem."
“He used to have a salary when he worked at Li’s. Although the salary wasn’t much each month, he saved it up in his account over the years. When he finally gave it to me, it was several million. He never spent it and it even accrued a lot of interest.”
Listening to Wen Shu's words, Ma Jun felt it was somewhat unbelievable. Li Duo, who was once the most dazzling eligible bachelor in Beicheng and a figure at the top of the pyramid, had actually broken ties with the Li family and become an ordinary person.
This disparity in status is akin to being demoted from a prince to a commoner in ancient times.
"I never would have guessed that Li Duo was such a romantic. I never expected him to go to such lengths for you."
Ma Jun couldn't help but sigh, "Okay, your reasoning convinces me, and I'm not going to be angry with you anymore. Anyway, even if you're going on blind dates, it's for the sake of the child, and this choice is indeed the best one you can make."
"But now that you say that, I feel relieved. You've been worried about the issue of child custody, and you even resorted to desperate measures when you were sick. Now you can finally calm down and think about some issues, which I think is great."
Wen Shu responded, "Sister, thank you for still caring about me. Li Duo and I don't plan to have a wedding, so we didn't inform you. Please don't be angry, sister. Once we've recovered financially, I will definitely come to invite you and Master Ma to our wedding!"
After Ma Jun hung up the phone, he heard that Lin Jingyu had arrived.
She immediately stood up and went out to greet him with a smile, "Jing Yu is here? Send someone to invite Master Ma over and tell him that his fiancée has arrived."
Ma Jun welcomed Lin Jingyu into her home with great enthusiasm. She took out a booklet and placed it in front of Lin Jingyu, saying, "These are some styles from Crazy Interior Design. Take a look and see which ones you like. And these..."
Lin Jingyu took the items with a smile, pointed out a few styles she liked, and said, "Sister, then I'll trouble you to decorate our new house."
Ma Jun laughed and said, "Of course. Marriage is a big deal. Your family values it, and our Ma family will never neglect you. Just rest assured and marry into our family. We will never treat you unfairly."
Lin Jingyu gave a slight smile. "Thank you, sis. I knew you wouldn't treat me unfairly."
Ma Jun rested his chin on his hand, looked at her with a smile, and said, "Oh my, seeing the grandeur of Jingyu's wedding, to be honest, I'm quite envious."
Lin Jingyu said, "What's there to envy, sister? Your wedding will be even grander than mine. You're marrying Mr. Long Xiaosheng, who's a member of the Long family. His high-ranking official position and title are what's truly enviable."
Ma Jun replied, "It's precisely because he's an official that he can't be extravagant or have a grand affair. If his wedding is even a tenth as magnificent as yours, that would be good enough."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jingyu felt a surge of joy. So that's how it is!
She thought Ma Jun and Long Xiaosheng's wedding would be the wedding of the century, but it turns out they couldn't afford such a grand wedding at all.
Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "It's enviable that my sister married well."
Ma Jun nodded and said, "People who marry well are indeed enviable. Compared to that, I feel sorry for that girl."
Lin Jingyu asked in confusion, "That girl? Which girl? Why is she so pitiful?"
Ma Jun glanced at her and said, "You've seen her before, she's the girl who came to the horse farm last time, with a very pretty child named Wen Shu."
Ma Jun knew, of course, that Lin Jingyu knew Wen Shu, and was even more aware of the antagonistic relationship between Wen Shu and Lin Jingyu, which is why she deliberately brought up Wen Shu.
She wanted to see Lin Jingyu's reaction to Wen Shu and Li Duo's marriage in order to judge how much sincerity she had for Ma Biao.
At the same time, he wanted to provoke Lin Jingyu and make her suppress the smugness that was about to spill over her face.
Ma Jun gently brushed his hair behind his ear and said calmly, "Wen Shu got married too, even before you, because she already got her marriage certificate."
Lin Jingyu stood there, stunned, and uttered a few words, "Wen Shu got married, but...who did she marry?"
Ma Jun smiled slightly and said, "She married Li Duo. I really don't understand the Li family. They had just sued Wen Shu for child custody, but Wen Shu won the case, and then Li Duo got married to Wen Shu."
"Tsk tsk tsk, what is the Li family thinking?"
Lin Jingyu felt as if the blood in her body had frozen.
Wen Shu got married? Or did she marry Li Duo?
How could that be? Absolutely not!
How could the Li family possibly allow Li Duo to marry a woman like Wen Shu?
Is it for the sake of the children?
But Li Duo is still young. If he wants children, how many can he have? Why does he have to have Wen Shu's child?
Lin Jingyu's initial joy was instantly dampened by this news.
She was trembling uncontrollably. Lin Jingyu knew she was angry, angry at Li Duo for marrying Wen Shu!
If Li Duo had married her back then, would she have needed to go to such lengths to marry a piece of trash like Ma Biao?
Lin Jingyu was filled with hatred, hatred to the core, hatred that made her teeth itch, and she wished she could take a knife and kill Li Duo. How could he do this to her?
Li Duo broke off the engagement with her in public at their engagement banquet, without considering the feelings of both sets of parents or her at all!
And now Li Duo has turned around and married a woman like Wen Shu, and only half a year has passed between them!
"Jingyu, are you alright? You don't look well. Here, have some water!"
Ma Jun's face darkened. She didn't seem angry, but her words betrayed her displeasure. "I know you and Li Duo used to be a couple, but no matter what kind of couple you were, once you break up, you're strangers."
“You’re getting married now, and I hope you know what you’re doing. Before the wedding takes place, it’s not too late to regret it. It’s your right, and no one can stop you, including Ma Biao.”
"So Jingyu, I hope you can think clearly about what you want, so you don't regret it after marriage and cause chaos instead of living a good life."
Lin Jingyu understood the implication in Ma Jun's words and immediately said, "Sister, I've decided to marry Ma Biao, and I won't go back on my word. This is my choice!"
