Mu Bao’er’s eyes lit up when she saw Ye Lu and the two children behind Ling Kong. She imdiately abandoned her husband: "You guys keep talking, take your ti, take your ti."
Ji Mo’s eyes narrowed displeasingly, "Are you really leaving behind like this?"
"Who cares about you? I’m going to see my future daughter-in-law. Move aside, move aside!" Mu Bao’er said excitedly, brushing past her husband and walking straight to Ling Kong’s side.
Ji Mo’s face showed a helpless but doting smile.
Ye Lu watched their deep affection and felt truly envious. They were truly a match made in heaven, wrapped in devoted love. Such genuine affection was enviable to onlookers!
"You must be Ye Lu, right?" Mu Bao’er ushered them to the sofa by the banquet hall, sat down, and looked at Ye Lu and her children warmly.
"Mrs. Ji, thank you so much. I heard from Ling Yan that it was you who asked him to help last ti." Ye Lu was genuinely grateful to her. After all, there was no blood tie or obligation between them, and yet she had reached out to help... it touched her deeply.
Mu Bao’er waved her hand with a beaming smile: "It was nothing, just a simple gesture, and in the end, I didn’t even help you."
"That was just my bad luck." Ye Lu said with a wry smile. When they left that last ti, who could have anticipated that Third Young Master Jun would dare to deploy fighter jets to intercept them and bring them back?
"How can it be bad luck? Perhaps one day, you’ll be thankful for this kind of fortune."
Ye Lu was taken aback, "Why would you think that?"
Being captured by Third Young Master Jun, how could that be considered good luck?
Mu Bao’er smiled aningfully, "Because I believe, a man who dares to offend the leading arms dealer, even deploying fighter jets to intercept you, at least proves his resolute determination and love for you without looking back."
"Love? How is that possible?" Ye Lu laughed in disbelief. Third Young Master Jun loves her? He took her back for his pride, for the baby in her womb, but certainly not for her as a person. If he hadn’t found out during the wedding that the child was his, would he have cared about her at all?
"The way you don’t believe in love, it’s just like how I was at first, all wounded and bristling like a hedgehog, rejecting everything."
Ye Lu looked at her in astonishnt, "You too? How is that possible? You and Mr. Ji seem to be so in love."
"Because love that has weathered storms is all the more precious. We’re very happy now, but could you imagine that we too have gone through a lot of pain and tribulation, nothing less than what you’re experiencing right now?" Mu Bao’er thought back to the past, a sigh evident in her expression.
"I thought your happiness ant your love flowed smoothly from the start, love at first sight, mutual adoration, and shared adversity."
Ye Lu was utterly shocked. In her imagination, such blissful love surely had a joyous beginning, a happy journey, a beautiful ending.
She believed this couple was a true example of love, with a love story that surely had no flaws.
That’s true love, isn’t it?
"Love at first sight?" Mu Bao’er laughed out loud, lifting her shoulders in disdain, "You have no idea how terrible that man of mine was at the beginning. He was practically the epito of scum, a bully who steals the common people’s daughters, you know?"
Ye Lu was dumbfounded and anxiously turned to look back at the distant arms dealer king, worrying that if he heard this he might explode with fury.
Yet, no matter how one looked, such a noble and domineering man, both passionate and proud, seed to have nothing to do with abducting civilian won, unlike Third Young Master Jun who was shaless and had no decency—only soone like that could do such a thing.
"Don’t believe ? Can’t see it, right? Don’t be fooled by his elegant exterior." Mu Bao’er was rciless in revealing her husband’s past misdeanors.
