Chapter 496 314: What's Keeping You Busy? Part 2
Wang Zhiqiang's face also looked a bit unsightly, but he quickly laughed and said, "Alright, no need to keep standing there like fools, let me take you guys to meet my wife. Liu Wentian, you haven't met her yet."
Wang Yifang, however, was blunt and couldn't help but say, "Zhiqiang, your mother-in-law isn't that great—just one look and you can tell she's a snob!!"
Sun Xiaoran quickly pulled her aside, gesturing for her not to talk nonsense.
"Heh heh." Wang Zhiqiang laughed awkwardly, not sure how to continue the conversation.
Liu Wentian smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, "Actually, it's nothing. You're marrying her daughter, not scheming for her family's wealth, and you're not going to live together in the future, so don't take it too much to heart. After all, you can't be unwilling to put up with a little annoyance after having slept with her daughter, right?"
"Haha!!"
Everyone burst into laughter at Liu Wentian's words, and Wang Zhiqiang gratefully glanced at Liu Wentian, then chuckled along.
The bride, Fan Yue, was a pretty girl with a somewhat round face and a petite figure. Her personality, on the other hand, was quite good and she was very enthusiastic towards Liu Wentian and the others.
Fan Yue's father also came over to greet them briefly before attending to other guests, clearly showing that although he was not as harsh as Fan Yue's mother, he still looked down on his daughter's high school classmates.
Liu Wentian looked around and asked Wang Zhiqiang, perplexed, "Aren't your uncle and auntie coming?"
The uncle and auntie he mentioned were Wang Zhiqiang's parents, whom he had met a few times in high school and were very kind people.
Wang Zhiqiang shook his head with an unsightly expression and said, "They didn't come. I'm planning to bring Xiaoyue back to my hometown to have a celebration there later, so I didn't bring them here to put up with this crap. Damn it, if I didn't truly love Xiaoyue, I wouldn't be putting up with this bullshit. Who gives a damn about their shoddy little building materials company!"
In the face of his brother Liu Wentian, Wang Zhiqiang didn't hide anything, clearly having some grievances bottled up.
"Then why don't you start your own company, make it several times stronger than their little building materials company, wouldn't that solve the problem? Or you could lead their company to develop, with that, her mother will probably treat you like an ancestor," said Liu Wentian with a laugh.
Wang Zhiqiang glared at him half-jokingly and bitterly smiled, "That's easy for you to say. If these things were that easy to do, that would be great!!"
Liu Wentian laughed and said, "Don't you have your brother to help you?"
Wang Zhiqiang mockingly laughed and said, "Oh please, spare me, you're just like me, dating some rich second generation girl. If anything, it's just that your mixed-race beauty is a bit too gorgeous!!"
"Exactly, Liu Wentian you sure know how to boast now, spouting nonsense without a draft. Your girlfriend must have been sweet-talked by you into the relationship, right?? Xiaoran, listen to this, the way he talks is so unreliable, such a person is not to be trusted one bit!!" Wang Yifang chimed in from beside the two, having heard Liu Wentian's words and couldn't help but make a face. She pulled at Sun Xiaoran, who was beside her.
That look in her eye was as if she were advising Sun Xiaoran to rethink her choices.
Hearing Wang Yifang's words, Sun Xiaoran just smiled and didn't say anything, but she also looked at Liu Wentian curiously.
Last time at Zhou Fu Jewelry Group, it was precisely because of Liu Wentian that she was finally cleared from the manager's false accusation and promoted to the new department manager.
Since Liu Wentian knew someone of Zhou Fu's stature, and such a person could lend a helping hand, it indicated that Liu Wentian's background was not simple. However, what exactly his status was, she wasn't clear, and couldn't help feeling curious.
Seeing her words were ineffective, Wang Yifang rolled her eyes helplessly. Her best friend seemed determined to stick with this guy, but the problem was that this tree already belonged to another's house.
Liu Wentian saw that no one believed him, simply smiled, and said no more.
"Xiaoyue, come here, come and offer a few toasts to Young Master Li Qikun. Having him attend our wedding is giving us a great honor! Why waste time with them? Come here quickly!" Fan Yue's mother, Cui Caixia's voice came from aside, with a trace of scorn towards the end.
The women on Liu Wentian's side, who had been having a pleasant chat with Fan Yue, froze and their expressions soured as they heard Cui Caixia's voice.
Fan Yue's face turned a bit awkward, "Sorry, my mom... she's a bit like that when she speaks..."
Wang Zhiqiang frowned and said, "Xiaoyue, what's going on with your mom? Does she really need to go out of her way to toast Li Qikun?"
Fan Yue squeezed his hand apologetically and said, "You understand, his family is in real estate, and our building materials company relies on his family for help in many areas, so..."
"What, do you have a problem with Li Qikun?" Seeing Wang Zhiqiang's displeasure at Li Qikun's mention, Liu Wentian couldn't help but ask.
Wang Zhiqiang, annoyed, said, "It's more than a problem, that guy is just a rich second generation who only knows how to play with women. He once pursued Xiaoyue, and after being rejected, still wouldn't stop harassing her. It's because of him that Xiaoyue's mom doesn't like me. We said not to invite that jerk, but her parents just wouldn't listen... Never mind, why am I even telling you this."
Now everyone understood the situation. It seemed that this Young Master Li Qikun was the ideal son-in-law in Fan Yue's parents' eyes, and Wang Zhiqiang, the unsophisticated country guy, was seen as a hurdle preventing their family from climbing up the social ladder.
"Xiaoyue, what's going on? Surely your bumpkin husband isn't forbidding you from having a drink with me, right? Heh, a country boy's jealousy is quite strong, isn't it!" A mocking laughter came over, followed by a well-dressed young man approaching.
What do you think?
