While it's true that a business marriage isn't necessary for Wan Ge given her circumstances, it's unbelievable that her parents accepted a gigolo so quickly. Unless her parents were thinking that they couldn't cause trouble at the banquet, otherwise it would be very embarrassing.
But that shouldn't be the case, right? If they didn't agree, Wan Ge would never have announced their relationship at the banquet. Her parents wouldn't have agreed or allowed it either. Even if they were just trying to appease her, they would have found another reason not to announce it first, instead of making her admit it so openly.
"Yes! They all agree to our marriage." Wan Ge said calmly, clearly aware of what Zhang Wan Yi was thinking at that moment. He must be wondering why his parents agreed, given the huge gap between them.
Wan Ge hasn't brought up Jiang Si's family background yet. Anyway, they'll be engaged soon, and Zhang Wanyi can find out whatever she wants at the engagement ceremony.
Several girls said they had prepared a surprise for her and wanted to invite her to see it. Wan Ge's subconscious reaction was to look at Jiang Si.
Jiang Si naturally heard what they were saying and smiled at Wan Ge: "Why don't you go and see them? I'll stay here and wait for you to come back."
Wan Ge hesitated for a moment, then finally touched his hair and said, "Wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Jiang Si nodded obediently again. Wan Ge then told him to call her if he needed anything, and then waved her phone in her hand, as if to tell him that she could answer his call anytime, anywhere.
Jiang Si watched their departing figures with her beautiful eyes. The smile that had been on her face at the edge of the city slowly disappeared. Without Wan Ge by her side, she had no motivation at all.
Jiang Si had agreed not to go anywhere. He originally just wanted to find a place to sit nearby, but he didn't expect that as soon as he sat down in the corner, he would hear the conversation of the people who came out from the side.
"By the way, why haven't I seen any members of the Meng family today? That's strange. Aren't they usually the ones who love to join in the fun?"
"Have you lost your memory?" The other girl standing next to her slowly continued, "The Meng family did such a thing back then, the two families have long since severed ties, and their plans have come to an end."
"Hasn't the Meng family only recently established themselves? They're already so bold, daring to bully Miss Li. No wonder she ignores them."
"Isn't that right? But Miss Li is quite tough; she dumped him just like that. I heard they were very much in love before, but I never expected it to end like this."
After finishing talking about Meng Yu and Wan Ge, they continued talking about Wan Ge and Jiang Si. "By the way, did you guys see that pretty boy today? My god, he's so handsome, incredibly good-looking."
"Are you stupid? How could Miss Li, who isn't good-looking, possibly be interested in you?"
"That's true. However, the two families strained their relationship at the engagement banquet, and not long after, we heard that Miss Li was keeping a mistress."
"Do you think Miss Li is too heartbroken, that's why..."
…
Jiang Si already knew about Wan Ge's childhood friendship with Meng Yu, but hearing it again in this setting made him feel extremely conflicted.
