Chapter 1035: The Flash Marriage Heiress (19)
Qian Beibei looked at Niu Jinlan with reddened eyes.
"You all knew he'd spent his money on the house and the car, yet you still demanded such an enormous bride price on the wedding day. Anyone would find that unacceptable."
"Beibei, that only proves he's incapable. A man with no ability isn't worth marrying in the first place. There are countless men in this world more capable than him. One less Luo Yicheng makes no difference."
Niu Jinlan simply couldn't stand Luo Yicheng. Aside from his handsome face, she thought he was useless.
"Big Sis, if you regret it so much, why didn't you just agree and leave with him that day?" Qian Chengcheng said unhappily. "And now you're blaming Mom."
He was in a terrible mood.
He'd been counting on those six hundred and sixty thousand yuan to buy a house.
How could a man get married without owning a house these days? Because he hadn't bought one yet, he didn't even dare visit the homes of girls he liked.
Mom was right.
Luo Yicheng simply wasn't capable enough.
He couldn't even come up with six hundred and sixty thousand yuan in bride price.
"That's right, Beibei," Niu Jinlan chimed in. "Didn't you silently agree that day and expect Luo Yicheng to produce the money? Since you didn't object, we naturally thought he could still come up with something to show how much he valued you. We did it for your own good. If a man truly loves you, you can tell by his willingness to spend money. If he loved you enough, he'd have found a way, even if he didn't have it at the time."
Speaking of it now, Niu Jinlan became angry.
"Who would've thought that boy would directly marry another woman? Beibei, perhaps Luo Yicheng didn't love you that much after all. If he really loved you, would he have married someone else immediately and left you here? Didn't that leave you utterly humiliated?"
"Mom's right, Sis. Why don't we introduce you to someone else? I think the one from last time was pretty good. Several houses, plenty of shops, and his own company. If you marry him, you'll live like a wealthy madam. That's much better than marrying Luo Yicheng."
Hearing the words of Niu Jinlan and Qian Chengcheng, Qian Beibei's eyes reddened even more, tears streaming down her face.
"That man is wealthy, sure. But Mom, have you forgotten? He's already forty years old. He has two children and has been divorced twice!" Her voice trembled. "Are you thinking about me, or yourselves?"
Seeing that something was wrong, Niu Jinlan hurriedly said, "Beibei, if you don't want to right now, that's fine. Since Luo Yicheng is already married, stop thinking about him. After some time, Mom will arrange someone else for you. I guarantee you'll marry a good man."
"Mom… enough."
Qian Beibei stood up and went back to her room to pack.
Before long, she emerged dragging a suitcase behind her.
The sight made Niu Jinlan cry out.
"Beibei, what are you doing?"
"Mom, I won't get married, alright?" She shoved Niu Jinlan aside. Some words she desperately wanted to say remained buried in her heart, afraid of angering her mother. "You've already ruined my life. What more do you want?"
"Beibei! Where are you going?"
"I'm going back to the company dormitory. Work starts soon. Where else can I go?" Her expression was numb. Yet seeing the relief on Niu Jinlan's face made her heart ache. "And don't bother arranging blind dates for me. I'm never getting married in this lifetime."
"Beibei, don't! Beibei…"
Niu Jinlan hurriedly chased after her and called for Qian Chengcheng to help.
But he simply said, "Mom, Big Sis is still angry. What's the point of dragging her back?"
