"Men should marry when they come of age, and women should marry when they come of age. What's wrong with that? Besides, I was about to die, and he was saving me!"
Feng Chao's face immediately turned red with anger, and he shouted with his neck stiff.
“I can’t afford the 500 yuan dowry, but my family isn’t poor! Is our childhood friendship really worth less than 500 yuan?”
Lin Qingyu scoffed and retorted, "What kind of relationship do we have?"
Feng Chao was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything for a long time.
Gu Shi coldly watched the two of them without saying a word, and stood to the side with his water bottle.
Seeing that he couldn't speak, Lin Qingyu continued.
"We're just neighbors. We're not the only ones who grew up together. Juanzi, who just got married a few days ago, also grew up with you, didn't she?"
"What, why don't you go to Juanzi's house and tell her husband that you and Juanzi have been together since childhood, how can Juanzi marry him?"
Yes, although Feng Chao said he grew up with Lin Qingyu, it was just that they lived close by, were about the same age, and could play together.
If there's anything to it, it's that Lin Qingyu has always admired him.
Because he was able to go to school, he has now graduated and can become a teacher at the village school.
Perhaps it was because she had too much of a bias against him in her previous life, coupled with her fear of Gu Shi, that she dared not marry Gu Shi and, in a moment of panic, chose Feng Chao instead.
And then there's Wu Lili's instigation. In her previous life, she didn't know why, but she later figured it out: Wu Lili is so ugly, Feng Chao definitely wouldn't be interested in her.
Because she was timid and easily manipulated, Wu Lili persuaded herself to marry Feng Chao.
Feng Chao had always had feelings for Lin Qingyu, but he always felt that Lin Qingyu's family was too poor and she was not good enough for him, so he never did anything inappropriate.
So there wasn't really any romantic atmosphere between the two of them.
But when Feng Chao saw Lin Qingyu standing with Gu Shi, he became anxious. He struggled to get up from the ground and blurted out something incoherent.
"I know you only agreed to marry him for the five hundred yuan dowry. Don't you know where his money comes from?"
As he spoke, he glared angrily at Gu Shi, trying to persuade Lin Qingyu to stay with him.
Gu Shi didn't tolerate him at all. He raised his chin and smiled, "Then tell me, where did my money come from?"
