It seemed that many people had said this, and Wen Zeli gradually felt that something was wrong.
Although this was the reason why he originally married Lin Yitong, he never announced it to the outside world.
It is precisely because of this that he has never understood why so many people think that his marriage is in name only.
Lu Hang paused, "So you really want to get married?"
Wen Zeli nodded calmly, "Of course, but only if she is my wife."
Lu Hang looked disgusted by the nausea. "That's enough. The iron tree that has been there for years has finally blossomed, and now it looks like this. I really can't stand you like this."
Zhou Shengyuan started to make faces and said, "You playboy, you don't understand. This is called love."
Wen Zeli watched them teasing nonchalantly, picked up the wine glass and took a sip without paying much attention.
Meng Ye looked at Wen Zeli and said, "Congratulations."
Wen Zeli put down his cup and gladly accepted the congratulations. "Thank you. You don't have any plans to get married yet?"
Mentioning this, Meng Ye's face instantly turned pale. He shook his head and said, "No, I won't get married. I'll wait for her to come back."
Zhou Shengyuan asked, "What if she never plans to come back?"
Meng Ye took a sip of wine, his voice hoarse, "Then wait for her."
Lu Hang raised his eyebrows slightly. "You deserve this. Rongrong liked you so much before, but you didn't want to and insisted on following your family's request for marriage. As a result, she changed her mind and went abroad, and you regretted it and broke up with your family, wanting to wait for someone to come back."
"Rongrong is so beautiful and has such a good personality. Aren't you afraid that she will find her destined love abroad?"
His words were like a dagger that stabbed into Meng Ye's heart without mercy, causing his already broken heart to bleed instantly.
Gu Mingye, who had been silent the whole time, came out to smooth things over, "Alright, Lu Hang, stop talking."
Meng Ye leaned dejectedly on the sofa, his handsome eyebrows and eyes covered with a layer of darkness, making it impossible to discern his emotions.
The box fell into silence.
As soon as they walked out of the door, the smile on Gu Mengran's lips unconsciously fell. She let go of Lin Yitong's hand and walked into the bathroom first.
Lin Yitang ignored his actions and walked in.
Gu Mengran wiped away the intimate look at this moment, folded her hands and looked at Lin Yitang coldly, "I advise you to leave Brother Wen. You know, he married you just to put off Uncle Wen. He doesn't love you at all!"
Lin Yitang recalled how Wen Zeli had repeatedly asked for a permanent position in front of him, and then looked at the man in front of him with a confident look on his face, feeling helpless.
Couldn't he deal with his own affairs before bothering her? Now he had to do it himself.
Lin Yitang noticed Gu Mengran's glare at her, and without much effect, she put on some makeup first, then taught her, "You can't do this."
"What?"
"Normally you'd give me a check and tell me to leave tactfully, then write a letter of voluntary donation, and then finish with a look that's three parts sarcasm, two parts coldness, four parts indifference, and one part condescension. That would be the right way."
Gu Mengran froze with a look of "What the hell are you doing?" She noticed the teasing and anger in Lin Yitang's eyes, "Are you kidding me?"
Lin Yitang spread his hands innocently, "No, that's how it's played in TV dramas."
Before Gu Mengran could speak, Lin Yitang pressed on, "Don't you have any money?"
"Of course I do!"
Gu Mengran said without thinking: "Why do you think I don't have money?"
"Oh, give it to me then."
Lin Yitang said calmly.
"How much do you want... No, why should I give it to you?!"
Gu Mengran said this angrily. When she thought about how she was being led by the nose just now, she wanted to kill the person in front of her.
"So... Miss Gu, why would you ask me to leave Wen Zeli if you don't even give me any money? Just based on your words?"
Lin Yitang sneered and stared at Gu Mengran.
Gu Mengran clenched her hands. "I heard that Miss Lin's family isn't wealthy, and there are a lot of people like you in Changcheng. Brother Wen has a distinguished family background and is handsome and elegant. Do you think you're worthy of him?"
Lin Yitang was amused. "Whether they are suitable or not is not up to Miss Gu to decide. It is up to Wen Zeli himself to decide. Guess why he brought me to this place today? Do you think Wen Zeli would waste his time on someone who doesn't want to do the job?"
Gu Mengran's heart tightened. How could she not know?
This group of people grew up together with Wen Zeli. It can be said that they are a small circle headed by Wen Zeli. Bringing Lin Yitong in means that he acknowledges her existence.
This is also the reason why Gu Mengran protested in panic.
Lin Yitang knew from her expression that Gu Mengran understood Wen Zeli's intention. She shook her head and said, "Miss Gu, you and Hanchuan must have known each other for many years. Do you think he would marry me if he really liked you?"
Of course not. Gu Mengran knew very well what kind of person Wen Zeli was. He would do whatever it took to get anything he set his eyes on, whether it was a person or something.
If Wen Zeli really liked her, he would not marry the woman in front of him, but would marry into the Gu family.
But she was unwilling to accept it. She had fallen in love with Wen Zeli since the first time she met him when she was a child. She had followed him and waited for so many years, but she could only watch him marry someone else.
Lin Yitang said all he wanted to say and decided to turn around and leave to give both of them some dignity.
But Gu Mengran's sharp voice came from behind, "Your family background is so poor, do you really think you are worthy of him?"
Lin Yitang spoke in a relaxed tone, not at all troubled by her words. "It means I have good vision and I made a profit."
Gu Mengran stood there in a daze, not knowing how she could have met such a shameless person. He was truly heartless.
"But doesn't loving someone mean being on equal terms with him? Family background, looks, and everything else have to match."
Gu Mengran looked stunned and murmured.
"Can the Gu family be compared with the Wen family?"
Lin Yitang couldn't help but ask this question.
"No, but it's better than having nothing."
Gu Mengran felt offended and glared at Lin Yitang fiercely.
"but--"
Lin Yitang spoke slowly, "Given Wen Zeli's current status, even if he doesn't marry you, the Gu family still needs to be on good terms with him."
With just one word, she revealed the current situation of the Gu family and also exposed the self-deception that Gu Mengran had created for herself over the years.
She always thought that Wen Zeli's current success needed the help of the Gu family to consolidate, but she did not realize that with Wen Zeli's current status, the Gu family needed to take the initiative to make friends with him.
Lin Yitang glanced at her indifferently and said, "Ms. Gu, it seems that you look down on me just as much as you do. In fact, I'm quite curious whether you are attracted to Wen Zeli or his astonishing wealth and outstanding status."
