877: Chapter 878: Thicker Skin Than City Walls
Ma Lili’s family of three walked towards Wang Xiaoqiang and his group, and the hall suddenly fell silent, with all eyes turning to the three of them.
Ma Lili’s father hung his head low.
Under everyone’s gaze, he truly felt he had no place to hide, yet with his dominant wife at ho, he felt he had no choice but to follow her lead.
Arriving at Song Xiaodong’s table, Li Gang imdiately rolled his eyes and said, “What are you still doing here?”
Ma Lili’s mother, with a smile plastered on her face, said to Wang Xiaoqiang, “My dear son-in-law.”
“Son-in-law?” Li Gang said bluntly, “You have the nerve to say that, your shalessness could be used as a city wall.”
Ma Lili’s mother felt sowhat embarrassed, but still managed a smile and said, “Look, son-in-law, there was so unpleasantness just now, but today is the happy day of your wedding to Lili, all these relatives and friends know that it’s you two who are ant to be together.”
Li Gang glared and retorted, “Happy wedding day?
You know that too?
What were you doing earlier?
When you saw soone else was rich, you cast the wedding aside, and now that Xiaoqiang has made sothing of himself, you want to co back.
Do all the good things in this world have to revolve around you?”
Li Gang had always disliked Ma Lili’s family, but since Wang Xiaoqiang himself liked her, he had kept it in his heart and refrained from saying too much.
Now he couldn’t hold back any longer and let it all out, without a hint of courtesy.
Ma Lili’s family blushed and beca hot-eared from Li Gang’s scolding, but they shalessly stayed put.
Ma Lili’s mother even nudged her daughter, signaling her with her eyes.
Ma Lili bit her lip, took a deep breath, then in that coquettish voice of hers said, “Hubby, I know I was wrong, please forgive
just this once, okay?
I’ll treat you well from now on.
Whatever you ask
to do, I will do without throwing a tantrum, I’ll listen to you, alright?”
As she spoke, Ma Lili grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang’s arm and gently shook it.
Wang Xiaoqiang’s expression turned ugly, while Xiao Cao looked nervous, watching Wang Xiaoqiang and whispering, “Xiaoqiang, I respect your choice, don’t feel any burden in your heart.”
Song Xiaodong glanced at Xiao Cao once more, thinking how truly nice this girl was.
Now that she knew about Wang Xiaoqiang’s wealth, she had no intention of clinging to him.
This kind of love was genuinely heartfelt.
Song Xiaodong remained silent, his expression calm as he watched Wang Xiaoqiang.
It was, of course, up to Wang Xiaoqiang to make his own decision, and he would not pressure him in any way.
Ma Lili’s lips pouted, her eyes reddening as she pleaded, “Xiaoqiang, just give
one chance, have you really forgotten the ti we’ve spent together?
Didn’t you say you loved
the most?
Can’t you forgive a small mistake?”
Usually, with just a bit of such acting spoiled, Wang Xiaoqiang would agree to anything she wanted.
Wang Xiaoqiang took a deep breath and gently pulled away Ma Lili’s hand, causing her face to freeze instantly.
“Lili, these past few months, I’ve been quite happy with you, but it’s also been very hard for .
Everything revolved around you, all were about your likes, and I completely lost myself.
But you…
you’ve always just enjoyed my adoration for you without ever considering my feelings, you just kept taking endlessly.
Of course, your mother has contributed to this as well, making my life unbearable, extrely unbearable.”
“It won’t happen again, it won’t happen again for sure,” Ma Lili shook her head repeatedly, reaching out to grab Wang Xiaoqiang’s arm again.
Wang Xiaoqiang dodged, not letting her catch him, and said, “What’s most important is that you made
lose sight of my life’s goals.
I didn’t know which direction to strive for.
Now I’ve realized, you’re really not right for , whereas Xiao Cao, she’s stood by
through thick and thin.
When I was struggling, she encouraged ; when things were going well, she was happy for
and shared in my joy.
Whenever and wherever I needed her, she was there by my side.”
At this point, Wang Xiaoqiang turned his head and looked at Xiao Cao with tender eyes.
Then he gently took her hand and spoke softly, “Xiao Cao, thank you for being so good to
all these years.
Looking back now, I really regret not realizing it sooner, so I wouldn’t have wasted all your kindness toward .”
Xiao Cao’s eyes reddened instantly, choking back tears, she said: “It’s okay, it’s okay, as long as I see you happy, I am happy too.”
“From today on, my happiness is your happiness, my joy is your joy, whether we face happiness or adversity, we’ll face it together.”
“Mhm, mhm!” Xiao Cao nodded vigorously, and then suddenly flung herself into Wang Xiaoqiang’s arms.
Even though the wedding ceremony had just occurred, and she felt she was only there to fill in, now she knew that Wang Xiaoqiang truly loved her, that he had really married her.
Happiness surged through her heart uncontrollably, tears of excitent kept flowing from her eyes, impossible to stop.
“Hey, what business is this of yours?
My daughter is Xiaoqiang’s wife, go die sowhere else!” Ma Lili’s mother screeched at this mont.
Wang Xiaoqiang and Xiao Cao’s heartfelt confession moved everyone.
Ma Lili’s mother’s shrill voice truly incited everyone’s anger.
“What’s your daughter?
By what right does she deserve Xiaoqiang?”
“Exactly, you’re the ones who should go away.
Such rcenary scoundrels, not even fit to carry Xiaoqiang’s shoes.”
“Get lost quickly, don’t embarrass yourself here.”
“If you don’t leave, we’ll throw you out.”
Ma Lili’s mother, now desperate, suddenly sat down on the ground and began sobbing loudly.
“Wang Xiaoqiang, you heartless man, you Chen Shii, you’ve abandoned her after creating chaos, you’ve had a wedding with my daughter, and now you just discard her, is there still justice in this world?
Are you even human?”
Pleading softly did not work, this woman actually started making a scene.
“You’ve toyed with my daughter for months, and you think you can just walk away like this?
No way, either you marry my daughter, or you pay her for the loss of her youth.”
Everyone was simply seething with rage at that mont.
This woman, failing to succeed in her reconciliation, was now trying to extort money.
Dealing with a shrew is often the most challenging situation for people.
Chen Zixu’s face darkened as he slamd the table and stood up, saying, “Damn, so wanting to die!
I’ll give you ten seconds, if you don’t get lost, I will throw you into the reservoir to feed the fish imdiately.”
As the saying goes, a bully is always brought down by another, and although Ma Lili’s family might take such words lightly when said by others, thinking it’s just another scare tactic, it’s different now because it’s Chen Zixu speaking.
As a mob boss, a man from the underworld, what wouldn’t he dare to do?
