Dragon Mother, holding her forehead in frustration, was livid. "I do not agree with your marriage! I will never agree! Not even if I die!"
Old Madam Long was calm and composed, chiding, "Shufen, don't get worked up, sit down!"
Seeing Dragon Mother sitting down, Old Madam Long turned to Gu Lili, "You've known Beibei for just several days and have decided to get married, what is the reason? I want to hear your honest answer."
"I want to have a family."
Dragon Mother couldn't help but speculate, "I think you're after our family's money, aren't you?!"
"Mrs. Long, if I were after your family's money, I would have agreed when your son offered to financially support !"
"Hmph, who would believe that, it's so obvious."
Old Madam Long glanced at her daughter-in-law, and Dragon Mother stopped talking resentfully.
"Are you willing to have a secret marriage?" Old Madam Long had her considerations, "Miss Gu, if you agree to a secret marriage, and if you can live with Beibei for three years, the Long Family will host a grand wedding for you."
Gu Lili could see that this was the Long Family's way of testing her over these three years to see if she could properly beco the Young Madam of the Long Family.
Such an attitude was inherently disrespectful.
Gu Lili smiled slightly, "That won't be necessary, Old Lady, although I have no parents or a good family background, I've always felt that there's nothing about that is unworthy of Long Yubei. One cannot choose their birth circumstances, if you all feel that marrying into your family makes less dignified than you, then we shouldn't get married."
Hearing this, Old Madam Long suddenly laughed, "Let's get married."
"Mother." Dragon Mother was shocked, "You agree?"
Father Long, who had been quiet, was also surprised, "Mom, didn't you say that Yu Bei's marriage must be to soone of equal social standing?"
"Matching social standing is not just about material things, spiritual compatibility is even more precious," Old Madam Long looked at her husband, "Old man, what do you think?"
Mr. Long replied with a smile, "Wife, whatever you say is right."
"Then, it's settled. Beibei, when do you want to hold the wedding?"
Long Yubei looked at Gu Lili, "Do you want it sooner or later?"
"You decide." Gu Lili passed the ball back to him.
"Then, let's have it at the end of this month."
With this settled, Dragon Mother wanted to object but felt powerless; she directly pulled her son back to his bedroom to question him.
"Tell the truth, why do you suddenly want to marry this woman?"
"What do you think, Mom?"
"I'm asking you!" Dragon Mother asked through gritted teeth, "You've only known her for a few days? Yu Bei, you haven't been bewitched by her, have you?"
"If she had that capability, that would be great," Long Yubei said indifferently, "Didn't you just a few days ago urge to et other won? Marrying anyone is the sa, why not marry a woman I find pleasing?"
"You really want to anger to death."
"Mom, although I haven't known her for long, I feel that she is a good woman. Don't be prejudiced; her ability to see what is unclean is sothing money can't buy. I actually think this ability is quite valuable."
...
The conversation between mother and son ca to no clear conclusion.
