Just Getting Married

Cheng Li was dumped, and not only did her ex-boyfriend show no remorse, but he also shamelessly advised her to be more realistic. Furious at such brazen audacity, Cheng Li felt her anger surge. Fine, you want reality? I’ll show you reality! Upon learning that the elderly couple in the next-door mansion were searching for a blind date for their grandson, Cheng Li impulsively stopped the young man. Looking at his handsome but aloof face, Cheng Li stood tall and confident: “I heard you’re looking for a date. Why search for someone unfamiliar when you know me? After all, we were high school classmates. What do you think of me?” — At her high school’s anniversary celebration, Rong Qi, now a celebrated tech prodigy, was the center of attention. As soon as he appeared, he was showered with admiration and praise, basking in the limelight. Cheng Li, dragged along to make up numbers, sat among her classmates, watching the confident man on stage. During the post-event dinner, someone brought up the topic of high school crushes. Rong Qi, who had remained silent, suddenly glanced at Cheng Li, who was being fawned over by male classmates, and casually said: “What about you, wifey?” Cheng Li: “…” Instantly, everyone turned to stare at these two people who seemed completely unrelated. —What no one knew was how long Rong Qi had waited to call her “wifey” out in the open.
