“Who is Liu Jiyue? How dare she humiliate my family?” Li Xiyun gritted her teeth in anger.
“Uh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Liu Jiyue's first love, and also the daughter of the Zhao Family from Hong Kong Island,” Zhao Xinrong said proudly.
“Zhao Xinrong, have you had enough? Our relationship ended a long time ago,” Liu Jiyue said in a deep voice.
Zhao Xinrong was indeed Liu Jiyue's first love, but they had broken up when Liu Jiyue went abroad for studies. Initially, this was not a big deal; Zhao Xinrong was a wealthy heiress and could have any handsome man she wanted. However, after Liu Jiyue returned to the country and developed a miraculous medicine, he suddenly became famous, and the Liu Family's business thrived significantly. Zhao Xinrong began to regret their breakup and wanted to reconcile with Liu Jiyue. Yet, Liu Jiyue did not agree and instead started dating a woman from the mainland, which left Zhao Xinrong feeling resentful and prompted her to cause trouble now.
If the woman Liu Jiyue was going to marry today had a more prominent background than hers, she would not have dared to act so arrogantly. Unfortunately for her, Li Xiyun’s background seemed insignificant in her eyes. Seeing her man being taken away by someone like Li Xiyun naturally made Zhao Xinrong feel dissatisfied and resentful.
“What if you are Liu Jiyue's first love? That was in the past. At this moment, I am Liu Jiyue's fiancée. No matter how much you disagree, it doesn't matter,” Li Xiyun said furiously, confronting Zhao Xinrong head-on.
“Heh, do you really think Liu Jiyue likes you?” Zhao Xinrong sneered.
“You probably don’t know this yet, but I’m already pregnant with Liu Jiyue’s child,” Li Xiyun said with a hint of pride.
“So what? Your role is merely that of a breeding tool,” Zhao Xinrong replied, then turned to Liu Jiyue with a meaningful look. “Liu Jiyue, I know what you’re thinking.”
“You're truly insane.” Under Zhao Xinrong's gaze, Liu Jiyue felt uneasy, fearing she might say something even more hurtful. He reached out and pushed Zhao Xinrong away.
Zhao Xinrong did not take any further aggressive actions; she merely stood aside and watched coldly.
“Li Xiyun, let me take you to meet my parents,” Liu Jiyue said.
“Okay,” Li Xiyun nodded. “What about my parents?”
“My dad isn’t feeling well and shouldn’t meet too many people. Just you go see him for now; my mom will come out later, so it’s fine to meet her then. Right now, you mainly need to greet my dad,” Liu Jiyue explained.
“Alright.” Li Xiyun did not say much more; she understood that there were rules in high society and that if she wanted to marry into it, she had to endure some humiliation.
The Bride's Father and Mother felt somewhat awkward. They had come yesterday but hadn’t met the in-laws yet; now they were here but still couldn’t see them. It felt like they were being looked down upon. However, they couldn’t say much; after all, the in-laws were of a higher status than them.
“Li Xiyun, you go ahead; we’ll wait here,” the Bride's Mother said, her eyes reflecting disappointment.
As Liu Jiyue and Li Xiyun left, Zhao Xinrong surprisingly approached the Bride's Father and Mother and said, “You don’t really think marrying your daughter to Liu Jiyue will allow you to climb up the social ladder, do you? The Liu Family has high standards and won’t take you seriously. Do you see? You don’t even have the qualifications to meet your in-laws.”
Faced with Zhao Xinrong's harsh words, the Bride's Father and Mother could only choose to swallow their anger. They were just businesspeople from the mainland while Zhao Xinrong clearly had a powerful background. Opposing someone like her would bring no benefits at all.
