She widened her eyes. "You’re already so wealthy, yet you still plan to profit from getting married?"
"Every morsel counts. Who would complain that having too much money burns their hands?"
"..."
He chuckled. "People love to say that weddings are wonderful, beautiful lifelong mories. Nonsense! Think about it. If the red envelope tradition was completely scrapped, no one gave gifts, and you couldn’t earn a single penny, I bet over ninety percent of n and won in this world would stop having weddings altogether."
"..."
"Even if that ten percent of wealthy people don’t care about the cash gifts, it’s still nothing more than a way for them to show off their fancy cars and grand houses, telling the world: ’Look how rich I am, how luxurious! Quick, envy !’"
"..."
"HEH HEH. So, you see, everything needs packaging. With good packaging, it’s a beautiful love story. With poor packaging, it’s just a money-grabbing operation."
Yan Xixi burst into laughter and lazily shoved him. "Suit yourself. I couldn’t care less how you make money. After all, I barely have any relatives or friends, just Xu Xiaoya. You won’t be able to squeeze much money out of her."
He curved his arm around her, holding her close. "Silly girl, the truth is, besides showing off wealth, a wedding is primarily to declare sovereignty. It’s to tell the world: ’This person is taken, belongs to , and no one else should even think about coveting them.’"
It was a profound realization for her. She nodded furiously. "Yes, yes, yes! We absolutely must have a wedding! Otherwise, if we have a secret marriage, people will think you’re single and might try to challenge my position at any ti. HMPH! It absolutely must be incredibly grand, announced to the entire universe!"
Before a man and a woman marry, don’t talk to about chastity; that’s your freedom. However, after marriage, moral integrity is a must. It’s just that simple.
「Secret Clubhouse.」
Zhou Ting, as familiar with the place as her own backyard, pushed open a private room and imdiately locked the door behind her.
Rina sat on the sofa, her expression rather grim.
Zhou Ting, knowing what was on Rina’s mind, smiled. "Rina, are you worried about the new movie’s box office?"
Rina responded coldly, "What’s there to worry about? I wouldn’t care even if the box office was zero."
Zhou Ting also cut to the chase. "All the conditions you requested were t. You yourself know the price we’ve paid investing in you over these years. Yet, we haven’t seen any results from you. Rina, I’m very disappointed."
Rina’s heart fluttered. Over the years, maneuvering between tycoons and wealthy businessn, she had weathered countless storms. More importantly, she knew many secrets. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be in Hawaii.
"There isn’t much ti left for you. I hope you can show so results soon." Zhou Ting continued, her voice deliberate, "Rina, don’t tell you’re completely out of ideas. The dinner you had with Wan Donglin the other day didn’t go very well, did it? As you can see, those two are already planning to get married. I heard their wedding plans are on the agenda. You must realize, once they’re married, you won’t have a single chance left."
Only after experiencing it herself did she truly understand how difficult it was—
But Rina still retorted coldly, "Don’t worry. I have my ways."
"That female swindler is far more formidable than the average woman. She’s both affected and sly. Don’t be fooled by how she usually pretends to be pitiful; when it’s a critical mont, she’s ruthless. I know you’ve had special training, Rina, but you might not be able to handle her easily."
"You’re overestimating her."
"It’s not that I’m overestimating her. If that’s not the case, then tell , how do you plan to stop them from getting married? Wan Donglin never spends ti with you alone. You don’t even have a chance to get close to him."
Rina clenched her teeth. "I said I have a way."
"What way?"
"I’m pregnant!"
Zhou Ting was utterly stunned.
After a long mont, she let out a deep breath. "Are you kidding ? Do you take Wan Donglin for a fool, or ?"
