Urban Life: I Just Want To Work Hard!
Chapter Two Hundred And Fiftieth: Fulfilling The Marriage Contract
Chapter 250: Fulfilling the Marriage Agreement
"Next Wednesday, five days from now, I will be getting married. Please make sure to come and show your support!"
Li Mubai sent out invitation after invitation to everyone.
"Hmm, the engagement didn't last long, why are they getting married so soon?"
"Yun Xiaoyue... Did he really decide to marry Yun Guotao's youngest daughter?"
"What are you saying? They're getting married, and you still want to know if it's already decided?"
"That's right, just because of what you said, Old Liu will have to drink three more glasses at the wedding, otherwise it's hard to say what will happen."
"Anyway, congratulations to Young Master Li. Rest assured, we will definitely be there!"
At this point, everyone was still puzzled. Even if the Li family has fallen on hard times, it's still unlikely for the heir to marry an unknown illegitimate daughter from the Yun family.
The previous engagement could be understood as a delaying tactic by the Li family, and many people didn't attend at the time, fearing that the couple would break up soon.
But instead of news of a broken engagement, a red bombshell came, throwing these worldly-wise people into chaos once again.
Li Mubai ignored their thoughts and joked, "That's already settled. Whoever is absent on the day will have to double the wedding gift!"
The laughter in the meeting room grew louder and louder. Regardless of how sincere they were, at least they were doing a good job on the surface.
Receiving congratulations from everyone, Chen Ping just smiled, but she felt uneasy in her heart.
Just two days ago, when Li Mubai came back with a series of good news in business, he revealed the truth about marrying Yun Xiaoyue.
At first, Chen Ping strongly opposed it.
Allowing her son to be engaged to an illegitimate daughter was a great shame. Seeing that the situation of the group had temporarily eased, she considered finding a suitable excuse to cancel the engagement. But she didn't expect her son to insist on fulfilling the marriage agreement, and he even urgently announced that they would get married next week!
Chen Ping tried to persuade him countless times, using both hard and soft approaches, but Li Mubai firmly opposed her. He gave a sharp response that left Chen Ping speechless:
"Mom, do you think we still have room to cancel the engagement? Don't forget that Yun Guotao is a person who values face greatly, and he will never give up easily. Our family really needs to rely on the Yun family now. Whether I marry Yun Yixian or Yun Xiaoyue, it doesn't make much difference. If you are really so dissatisfied with this marriage, wait until our family is safe from the current difficulties, and then I will divorce her. It's less likely to provoke Yun Guotao's anger to divorce an illegitimate daughter than to divorce a legitimate eldest daughter."
After receiving congratulations, Li Mubai followed Chen Ping to the chairman's office.
"Mom, if you still want to persuade me, just save it." Li Mubai preemptively explained that he had really suffered an unbearable bombardment that day.
Chen Ping silently looked at her son for a while, then suddenly smiled bitterly, "The invitations have already been sent out. Whatever I say now is useless. I can only hope that everything will be fine for your future."
After hearing this, Li Mubai felt guilty in his heart.
He knew that his "self-willed and impulsive behavior" this time had caused his mother to lose face.
Even though she had always opposed this marriage, she didn't want to sacrifice her own marital happiness to promote this business cooperation because she loved him too much.
It can be said that even though Chen Ping's abilities were far inferior to Yun Guotao's, when it came to her children, she had a hundred thousand times more consideration.
This was extremely precious!
"Mom, you worry too much. How could I not be fine?" Li Mubai decided to calm down and sat on the sofa, holding Chen Ping's arm. "You are also a well-traveled person. These nominal agreements are common in our circle and there is no problem. If a couple can't live together, they can only live apart. Besides, as a man, what loss can I suffer? In the worst case, as I said before, when the family stabilizes, I will divorce her without any reason. At that time, everything about the marriage will be up to you."
