After divorce, she married a wealthy man, and her ex-husband's family regretted it

"Father-in-law, it's useless. There are no private rooms here." Li Dongyang whispered.

Father Wen was stunned. "What do you mean? How could such a big hotel not have other private rooms?"

"It's all been booked by the Yuan family. He...he is also holding an engagement party today." Li Dongyang's voice became smaller and smaller, until it was almost inaudible.

Father Wen also fell completely silent.

If it was someone else's family, he could still fight for it, but the Yuan family...

If he went, it would undoubtedly be like an egg hitting a rock. He wouldn't even have time to dodge, so how could he take the initiative to run into the muzzle of the gun?

"That's it, let the waiter serve the food quickly, everyone is hungry." Father Wen pretended to cough twice and changed the subject.

"By the way, father-in-law, why didn't your business friends come?" Li Dongyang asked curiously.

The Li family’s relatives and friends don’t have to be invited. After all, except for the eldest uncle of the Li family, none of them are rich people. But it’s different for the Wen family. Those who have close contacts with Wen’s father are all from wealthy families.

"Hey, it's just a small engagement party, so I won't bother them." Now it was Father Wen's turn to be evasive.

"What a pity. I originally wanted to take this opportunity to get to know you." Li Dongyang rubbed his hands, feeling quite regretful.

Thinking about how the Yuan family's engagement party was packed with people, while his own family only had a few poor relatives, he felt even more uncomfortable.

"It's okay. There will be plenty of opportunities after you get married. By the way, where is Wanwan?" Father Wen turned around and found Wen Wan, and pulled her to a corner and whispered.

Li Dongyang was busy toasting and ignored the father and daughter.

"Dad, look at the gold ring that Li Dongyang bought for me." Wen Wan saw her father and proudly showed off the new ring on her hand.

"How much did you buy it for?" This is all Father Wen cares about.

"About 70,000 or 80,000 yuan." Wen Wan looked at her ring and liked it more and more.

After all, it was something that even Jiang Ling didn't have, but she wore it on her hand, so she must be happy.

"Give it to me." When Father Wen heard the price of 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, his eyes immediately lit up.

"But, Dad, this is my wedding ring." Wen Wan was not satisfied with it and was reluctant to give it to him.

"I know that the creditor has come to urge Dad to pay back the money these two days. Dad has to pay back the money." Father Wen looked around carefully and lowered his voice.

"Dad, didn't we just give you 500,000 yuan as a betrothal gift a few days ago?"

"I've paid off all the debts, but it's not enough. If I don't pay them back, the creditors will beat me to death. My dear daughter, you are my only child. You can't just watch me get beaten to death." Father Wen burst into tears.

Wen Wan felt very complicated.

Ever since her family went bankrupt, she hasn't had a good day and has been chased for debts all day long.

After much difficulty, she got close to Li Dongyang and coaxed hundreds of thousands of dollars from him, but every time before she could even enjoy the money, Wen's father would take her away to pay off the debt.

She had lost count of how many times it had happened.

But what can she do?

This is her father.

"My dear daughter, give the ring to dad quickly. I can sell it to pay off my debts." Without waiting for Wen Wan to answer, Father Wen immediately grabbed her hand and tried to take off the ring.

"Dad, Dad, I sold the ring to you, so what should I wear on my wedding day? Li Dongyang will find out." Wen Wan felt anxious as she looked at the ring that was taken away.

According to custom, the bride and groom have to exchange rings on the wedding day. Since her ring is missing, the Li family will definitely ask about it.

How would she cover up her lie then?

"It's okay. Dad will buy you a fake one. He won't be able to tell it's yours when you wear it on your hand." Father Wen had already made plans. He happily put the ring he had taken off into his pocket and said, "You guys eat it first. I'll go out and find someone I know to sell it to."

Wen Wan just watched her father go away.

Li Dongyang toasted everyone but couldn't find Wen's father. He asked Wen Wan in confusion, "Where's your dad? Why did he leave without even eating?"

"My dad said his stomach hurts a bit, so he's going to the hospital and will be back soon." Wen Wan made up an excuse.

Wang Chunhua, who was standing nearby, heard this and was startled.

She put laxative in Father Wen’s bowl last time. Could it be that it hasn’t healed yet?

Oh my God, she must hide well and not be discovered.

The eldest aunt of the Li family was sandwiched between two sturdy middle-aged women and didn't even get to eat a bite of food.

Every time a dish was served, the two people nearby would turn into starving ghosts, chopsticks dancing wildly, and in the blink of an eye, the dish would be completely divided up, leaving only an empty plate spinning in place.

The two of them each held a chicken leg and ate it. While they were eating, they advised Li's aunt, "Hey, why don't you eat it? Eat it while it's hot."

Li's aunt: ...

My words are unpleasant, so I won’t say any more.

Eat it while it's hot?

Is she eating a table leg?

She had lent the Li family 200,000 yuan before, and this time she gave another 1,000 yuan as a contribution to the engagement party. Originally, she only wanted to give 200 yuan, but the eldest uncle of the Li family said that they were too close and it would not look good to give 200 yuan, so she gritted her teeth and gave 1,000 yuan.

She had hoped to eat some of the food this time, but, not to mention the quality of the food, she didn't even get to eat a single scrap of it.

Aren’t the Wen family members said to be all wealthy and powerful? Why do they all look like starving ghosts?

No manners at all!

She secretly winked at Uncle Li.

Uncle Li's life was even more miserable.

Li Dongyang toasted him a glass of wine. Although he was full of resentment, he still drank the wine in one gulp because he was his nephew after all.

It doesn't matter if I drink it, it will cause heartburn.

He swished the liquor around in his mouth, suspecting that it was fake.

Otherwise, why is it so unpalatable and heartburning?

He looked around calmly and saw that the other men also had indescribable expressions. He knew that the wine was probably fake.

Damn bear legs!

Engagement party!

In such an important occasion, giving people fake wine?

Aren’t you afraid of someone losing their life?

Even if no one died, it would not sound good if it got out.

How poor is the Li family that they even fake a bottle of liquor?

He was angry and poured a cup to Li Hongshan, "You drink one too."

Li Hongshan's face changed immediately after he drank a glass of wine.

They are all people who have been drinking for so many years. They usually drink more alcohol than water, so they can taste the flavor of this glass of wine.

Uncle Li didn't say anything, but just glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.

He is our brother, so it’s okay if he drank fake wine, but what about the others?

Doesn't this tarnish the reputation of the Li family?

Li Hongshan was embarrassed. He turned around and found Li Dongyang who was toasting everywhere. He pulled him to a corner and asked him sternly, "What's wrong with your wine? You used fake wine for such an important occasion. Do you want to kill people?"

Li Dongyang drank too much and his speech was a little slurred. "Dad, what are you talking about? What fake wine?"

He drunkenly pressed his wine glass into Li Hongshan's hand and said, "Try it. This is good wine. My mother spent a lot of money to buy it for me."

Li Hongshan subconsciously took a sip of the wine in Li Dongyang's glass. It tasted clear and sweet, obviously a good wine.

He was blinded.

One is fake wine, the other is good wine.

what is the problem?
