Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 273 - 270: Looked Down On

The kind of things like not preparing a gift for the first visit, refusing to give a bride price (because the boyfriend’s parents think that since they fell in love freely, why should they give a bride price), the house being in the na of the boyfriend’s parents, and the boyfriend’s side only willing to hold a banquet in the countryside, and so many other issues.

Just looking at the long list of complaints from Gu Jingyu, Lin Wanwan already felt her head spin. She thought if getting married involved so many trivial matters, it might be better to stay single, or just be in love without getting married.

Back when Gu Jingyu first t her first love, they were so loving and happy together, but as soon as they started discussing marriage, so many issues popped up.

Sotis, looking at her complaints, Lin Wanwan even felt that the two were not truly in love; they were just getting married for the sake of getting married.

Unexpectedly, less than two weeks after the complaints, the wedding invitation ca, which was really surprising.

"Did you sort out the things you were concerned about before?" Lin Wanwan asked curiously.

Gu Jingyu sighed deeply and said, "How could that be possible! We compromised with each other, what else could we do? I mainly compromised. I’ve already had an abortion for him once; I can’t really break up with him."

Although Lin Wanwan didn’t understand what the necessary connection was between breaking up and having an abortion, she still said, "As long as you’ve decided."

"Wanwan, what do you like to eat?"

"I’m okay with anything, just decide."

"Then how about we both get a steak set? Delicious and convenient."

"Sure."

After ordering, the chat continued.

Perhaps Gu Jingyu needed a confidant to listen, knowing that Lin Wanwan was discreet, so she was willing to tell her anything.

"Wanwan, you don’t know how stingy his parents are. They’re unwilling to hold the wedding banquet at a hotel, and they won’t even hire a wedding planner, saying that such things don’t happen in the countryside," Gu Jingyu complained, "And about the bride price, my mom asked for 100,000; that’s the normal level in our countryside and isn’t any extra. They gave it to , but I’m supposed to take it back all altogether.

But his family just won’t agree, only willing to pay 28,000, saying that’s the bride price in the city.

They want to follow city rules for the bride price, but a city’s wedding planning at least starts at 100,000, and the banquet should be at a star-rated hotel, but they can’t do that and want countryside rules, having a communal banquet with no wedding planning. I ended up paying for the wedding planning myself."

What could Lin Wanwan say? She could only advise, "Marriage is a significant decision in life; since you chose it, you should work hard at it. Even if materially he can’t fulfill you, at least you’re marrying for love."

"Ah, I’m really not reconciled!" Gu Jingyu sighed, "I feel like their family is too guarded against . The house is in his parents’ na, and the bride price is just that small amount. If it weren’t for the fact we’ve been dating since school and it’s hard to let go of so many years of feelings, I really would want to break up."

Lin Wanwan began to find the topic dull; it’s really tough to truly empathize in this world.

She couldn’t understand Gu Jingyu’s troubles. If she were to say, Gu Jingyu was just being indecisive and delaying what should be cut off; she definitely couldn’t say such a truth, so she could only follow Gu Jingyu’s words to comfort her, but it was hard to truly comfort soone inside.

Before going to the appointnt, Lin Wanwan’s idea was that the girls would have a al together, chat about trendy costics and clothes, talk about good books and movies or TV shows, and then happily finish their al and stroll around Tis Square to walk off the al.

This should be the correct way to open a girlfriends’ gathering, rather than now, where the entire dining table topic revolves around marriage complaints.

Finally, after finishing their al, Lin Wanwan swiftly changed the topic and said, "You’re about to get married, so why don’t we go shopping together now? I’ll accompany you to buy new clothes to wear to the wedding?"

Gu Jingyu, having poured out her heart throughout the al, was feeling much lighter. Hearing Lin Wanwan’s suggestion, she imdiately agreed.

"Sure! I want to buy a pair of Roger Vivier shoes first, and then buy an sv bag to reward myself! One only gets married once in a lifeti; I want to be good to myself."

Lin Wanwan naturally agreed: "Sure, sure! Let’s get going."

Tis Square’s positioning is for luxury goods. Apart from the restaurants on the top floor and Tis Cinema being affordable for ordinary people, all the other stores are world-famous brands, starting from light luxury. Without several thousand prepared, you really can’t shop in these stores.

Although Lin Wanwan was a rich person now, her ntality hadn’t yet changed to a rich person’s ntality, and she’d never shopped at Tis Square before; this was also the first ti ever.

The first stop was the Roger Vivier store. Because it was a style Gu Jingyu had longed for, she went straight to try on shoes and pay, and the purchase went smoothly.

However, an unpleasant incident occurred when they went to the sv bag section.

As soon as they pushed open the big door and walked in, Lin Wanwan felt a very uncomfortable scrutinizing gaze.

Under such blatant stares, Gu Jingyu seed a bit uneasy.

There weren’t many custors in the store, and there were a few idle salespeople, but they couldn’t be bothered to co over to greet the two of them. They only nonchalantly said, "Look at what you like, but you can’t touch, and no photos in the store."

Lin Wanwan imdiately frowned and said to Gu Jingyu, "Why don’t we check out Chanel next door? After all, bags like these are quite similar."

Gu Jingyu tugged her and subtly shook her head, saying, "Let’s look around here first; I actually find it quiet."

Feeling helpless, Lin Wanwan accompanied Gu Jingyu to the bag section.

As they walked past a billboard, Gu Jingyu suddenly pointed at the person on it and said, "Hey, Wanwan, look, it’s Xiao Junning! I didn’t expect he could have an ad for sv!"

Then she curiously asked the store clerk, "Is Xiao Junning the new ambassador for sv?"

The clerk replied coolly, "Not an ambassador, just a promotional representative."

"Oh! So even promotional representatives can have ads," Gu Jingyu remarked, but the clerk pretended not to hear.

With the clerk’s attitude like that, Lin Wanwan felt that hiring anyone to promote for sv was a waste.

The reason Gu Jingyu pointed it out so surprisingly was obviously not because she was a celebrity fan, but because Xiao Junning was an alumni celebrity from their sa school.

"Hey, Wanwan, do you still keep in touch with Xiao Junning?" Gu Jingyu whispered.

Lin Wanwan replied, "Rarely."

"Ha, so you really do have his contact info? Do you have his Monts? Open it up and let see." Gu Jingyu’s focus seed a little different.

Lin Wanwan uncertainly said, "I don’t think so; I don’t really check Monts."

After saying that, Lin Wanwan fished out her phone from her ten-dollar canvas bag to show Gu Jingyu.

Just as she turned on her phone, the previously indifferent store clerk strode over quickly and sternly said, "What’s going on! Didn’t we already tell you that no photos are allowed here? I knew people like you can’t afford anything and only co to sneak photos!
