Chapter 1068: The Flash Marriage Heiress (52)

Surely no one would support someone they disliked, right? No one could possibly be that bored.

System: There was. His host was exactly that kind of bored person.

After that banquet, Luo Yicheng also realized how much Mother Luo and Elder Sister Luo had changed. Whenever there was a social gathering that required family members to attend, he and Tang Guo would bring the two of them along.

By now, both women had become accustomed to such occasions. Thanks to the various tutors Tang Guo had hired over the past two years, they had long shed the rustic air of their rural origins.

Their manners, speech, and habits had undergone tremendous changes.

Of course, when chatting downstairs with the elderly neighbors, Mother Luo remained as down-to-earth as ever.

But even so, her speech and demeanor had improved significantly. The neighborhood aunties and uncles didn't distance themselves from her because of that.

Mother Luo's mind was more agile than that of many young people, and she got along exceptionally well with her neighbors. She was especially skilled at treating different people differently.

Elder Sister Luo wasn't foolish either. Through the connections she'd made at those banquets, she had actually helped her husband sell a great deal of pork.

Yes, pork.

Fearing that if he didn't work hard, his young and attractive wife might leave him, her husband had started a pig farm. The farm raised both feed pigs and free-range pigs in the mountains.

The pork Elder Sister Luo sold came from the free-range pigs.

Tang Guo didn't care about any of this in the slightest.

She was rather enjoying the game.

The transformed Mother Luo and Elder Sister Luo—these two women were anything but simple.

Only after possessing something and then losing it would one understand what was truly precious.

Mother Luo had once possessed a rich, beautiful daughter-in-law who treated her kindly, brought her into high society, and never looked down on her.

Could she really accept an ordinary daughter-in-law afterward?

Elder Sister Luo had once had a sister-in-law who taught her makeup, took her to classes, and broadened her horizons.

Could she still accept a younger brother's wife who couldn't help her with anything?

People, after all, couldn't help comparing.

Luo Yicheng had once lived without worries at home and needed only to focus on striving for success. Whenever he encountered difficulties in the company, he could return home and discuss them with that perfect wife, always gaining something from the conversation.

Whenever the company faced funding problems and required further investment, he only needed to discuss it with that perfect wife. By the next day, a massive sum would be injected into the company.

The household was managed flawlessly, and she could even assist his career.

When he eventually lost such a perfect wife and ended up together with the true love he had longed for, only then would he understand that some things could never be obtained no matter how desperately one sought them.

Only then would he understand regret.

Only then would he understand loss.

Resting her chin on one hand, Tang Guo flipped through the latest photos sent to her by Stingy Gu.

The pictures showed nothing else.

They were all photographs of Luo Yicheng and Qian Beibei meeting.

Qian Beibei had changed jobs again.

In fact, it could be said that wherever Luo Yicheng moved, she would quickly find a company nearby and work there.

And because of this, even after another two years had passed, she still hadn't achieved anything noteworthy in her career.

She hadn't learned what she should have learned, nor had she built the connections she should have made.

Now, at twenty-nine years old, every position she'd held had been utterly ordinary.

But she didn't care.

The only thing she cared about was Luo Yicheng.

As long as she could stay a little closer to him, she was content.

She believed that one year later, Yicheng still wouldn't forget her.

And when that time came, their hardships would finally be over.

At that moment, Tang Guo's phone rang.

The three words “Stingy Gu” were especially eye-catching.

“Miss Tang, you've seen the photos, haven't you?”
