Chapter 192: Definitely for the Sake of Money
Isn’t she just a freshie? Do people get married so early these days?
Meng Chen’s shocked voice was so loud that it instantly hushed the noisy coffee shop.
Everyone turned their gaze toward them right away.
As she was one of their school’s famous figures, those who had never met Mu Huan before had surely heard of her and knew that she was a freshman.
News of her married status, however, was startling and unexpected!
Her marriage partner doesn’t seem to be our age!
What’s more, even though this man has a good, powerful demeanor and a tall, big build, he’s ultimately a cripple!
I suppose he isn’t good-looking either.
Why on earth would Mu Huan, a young lass, marry such a man?
Could it be because the guy is rich?
All of a sudden, everyone began sizing up the man’s attire.
Right then, Mu Huan, who had regained her senses, hastily got to her feet. “Hubby, listen to me…”
“We’ll talk in the car.” Bao Junyan then grabbed hold of her hand, turned around, and pulled her away.
Lacking the guts to say anything more, she followed closely behind her husband and left.
The entire coffee shop broke out in a commotion the moment the couple left!
“If I’m not mistaken, that man was wearing a globally limited edition Patek Philippe diamond watch, and it costs tens of millions!”
“You’re right, it’s a limited edition! And that’s certainly an authentic watch!”
“Wow! He’s one filthy rich man!”
“Why would Mu Huan marry him if he isn’t rich?!”
“No doubt the top scholar, indeed! She’s real money-minded!” The guys were all being sarcastic about it.
“He’s a cripple, though. Plus, he wears sunglasses at night. For all we know, there may be a problem with his eyes. He appears pretty average-looking as well, and he seemed to be years older than us…”
“So what? It’s good enough that he’s rich! Don’t you girls all like wealthy men and would even marry an old man for the sake of money?! So, there’s no big deal about marrying a slightly disabled and older man.”
“What the hell are you talking about?! Don’t lump us together with her! Not all girls are so greedy for money!”
“Exactly, not all girls are so materialistic!”
“Sheesh, Mu Huan clearly has the brains to work her way up to a better life, yet she chose to sell her body in exchange for that instead!”
To these self-proclaimed noble and virtuous people, girls who marry men for the sake of money were no different than those prostitutes on the streets who sold their bodies for a living.
“Some people just had to go and degrade themselves!”
Fuming in anger, Li Meng stood up. “You’re the one who’s degrading yourself! And you! What do you mean by selling her body in exchange for a better life?! Won’t you support your family when you marry a wife in the future? Does that mean your future wife is also a prostitute who sold her body in exchange for a better life?
“Putting aside the fact that she did not marry for the sake of money, there’s nothing wrong about it even if she did it for money! She can, at least, get money for doing that. What would one be able to get from marrying you poor losers? We girls accompany you guys through the hard times, but once you get rich, you find us old and haggard and find all sorts of excuses to have affairs!”
Her speech struck a chord among several girls, and as such, they said in unanimous agreement, “Yes, yes! Well said, there’s no big deal in loving money!”
“You girls have no sense of morality!”
Hearing that, she sneered in response. “It’s not that we lack a sense of morality, you guys are just too chauvinistic! Don’t talk about girls dreaming to marry a rich and handsome man when you guys are dreaming to marry a rich and pretty lady yourself! Those who say that they don’t wish to find one merely have the self-awareness that they lack the potential to find and hook up with one!”
