"Speaking of which," Kang Junjia hinted mysteriously at his son-in-law in front of him, "do you know what his previous girlfriend’s name was?"
What was the deal with this man his daughter had found? As a father, especially one as calculating as Lin Jiale, how could he possibly not have done some prior investigation? He wouldn’t just let a poor boy come and attempt to usurp the Lin Family’s fortune.
Seeing Lin Jiale silent, Kang Junjia snorted coldly in his heart, thinking: Impressive. That dirty deed his daughter had done, and he, as her father, was actually acting as if he saw nothing, covering for her.
Was this Wa Zicong really that great?
Worthy of the Lin father and daughter going to such lengths?
Perhaps Lin Jiale was just too indulgent with his daughter, letting her do whatever she wanted.
"What about his previous girlfriend? That’s all in the past. He has also promised me that he will be good to only Shanshan in the future," Lin Jiale finally spoke out loud.
Kang Junjia said, "What your daughter does is your family’s business, and it’s not my place to interfere. However, I mention this purely because your daughter has kept something else from you." Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚕·𝚏𝚒𝚛𝚎·𝚗𝚎𝚝
"What is it?" Lin Jiale was stunned for a moment.
"Your daughter, out of jealousy, snatched someone else’s boyfriend. And do you know what? That act of your daughter has essentially backfired, bringing the greatest trouble to our Xiao Family."
Lin Jiale’s eyes widened as he listened, startled: "Explain clearly!"
"It’s simple. That classmate from whom she snatched the boyfriend has been seen with your younger brother-in-law several times," said Kang Junjia.
Lin Jiale almost didn’t steady himself, nearly stumbling: "You mean her classmate from a poor family, is pursuing the younger brother-in-law?"
"How is that possible?! Not only is her classmate poor, but she’s also deaf. How could the younger brother-in-law be interested in her?"
"The younger brother-in-law has always been wild and crazy, you should know that," Kang Junjia replied.
Wa Zicong was standing nearby, feeling his father-in-law Lin Jiale and Kang Junjia growing increasingly agitated as they spoke. The looks Lin Jiale was shooting his way were filled with a strong, complex meaning, and seemed to carry a hint of blame.
This left Wa Zicong feeling puzzled, and that vague unease deep in his heart seemed to sprout and grow wildly.
"Forget it," Kang Junjia said, perhaps wanting to save face for Lin Jiale’s future son-in-law, "things have turned out this way. Now that it has come down to this, the old man will surely not let the younger brother-in-law mess around. He has made up his mind today, and there won’t be any other issues."
Lin Jiale nodded along: "If that girl really did something so inappropriate, it must be because she couldn’t stand seeing my daughter and was jealous. She’ll soon realize that there are two different worlds, completely different ones. With her little ability, trying to climb to a higher branch is something she might do in her next life."
Ha ha ha. Kang Junjia couldn’t help but laugh loudly.
Indeed, in this day and age, things are not like before. Previously, a daughter could rise from the ashes and become a phoenix. Nowadays, parents in wealthy families absolutely will not allow their sons to marry a mismatched bride; conversely, they can spoil their daughters to the point of bringing in a son-in-law.
For a woman, it’s much harder to marry into wealth by scheming than it is for a man from a humble background to become a phoenix man marrying into a rich family.
The various restrictions of the wealthy families, could they be broken by a mere fox spirit?
Seeing that the morning was almost over and most of the guests had arrived, Grandma Xiao, who had dressed up and was preparing to welcome guests in the Xiao Family mansion, opened the doors of the hall to begin the reception process.
