The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy
Chapter 1273 - 1293
Chapter 1273: Chapter 1293
He had it all planned out before he came over. If the in-laws were resentful of wealth, or didn’t like people who were too rich, he would act poor. But obviously, the in-laws weren’t opposed to wealthy people, and they even seemed to have a vague longing. Why would he still pretend to be poor? That would be stupid!
The Jiang parents were shocked, looking incredulously at their future son-in-law and then at their daughter. Jiang Meng could only offer an awkward smile.
"Jiang Meng, why didn’t you tell us clearly~!" The Jiang parents immediately glared at their daughter and questioned her.
"Ah, I did explain; I said Gu Shilin is a second-generation rich kid!" Jiang Meng also looked helpless. She knew her parents could only imagine what a rich kid was like but would never envision the vast wealth of the Gu Family.
After all, the richest people back home were at most real estate developers, which to the locals was already very, very wealthy.
The Gu family was a truly grand family, wealthy beyond ordinary imagination.
Mrs. Jiang scooted over to pinch her daughter’s arm, "You didn’t explain anything! You just brushed us off!"
"Mom, it hurts, it hurts." Jiang Meng winced in pain, knowing her mother’s pinch had always been ruthless!
"Auntie, Auntie, don’t, Meng Meng hurts." Gu Shilin was heartbroken. Even though it was her mother doing the pinching, he felt the pain too.
Even the slightest discomfort for Jiang Meng made him feel bad as well.
The feeling was truly astonishing, but it also made him treasure it dearly. He always wanted to find a girl like this, and at last, he had.
The Jiang parents exchanged a look at seeing their future son-in-law so caring for their daughter, and they were quite pleased.
After all, what parent wouldn’t want their children to find someone who truly cares for them?
The Jiang parents were tired after flying, so Gu Shilin didn’t stay long. Jiang Meng stayed the night with her parents.
As soon as Gu Shilin left, Mr. Jiang pulled his daughter over for a barrage of questions.
"Jiang Meng, you child, how could you not tell us the truth! We thought you found some ordinary rich kid. This... this caught us completely unprepared!" Mr. Jiang truly felt pressured. Initially, he thought their daughter, raised for so many years, would be whisked away by a businessman reeking of money, and much older too.
But now, well, he was genuinely shocked by such a vast array of businesses. How much money must they have!
Their family was indeed small by comparison.
"Dad, Mom, although the Gu family is a grand family, they are all very nice people! The three of them are very loving, and Uncle and Aunt especially like me. You really don’t need to worry." Jiang Meng reassured her parents.
"What do you mean, don’t worry? Daughter, the gap between our family and theirs is too big! Aren’t we unworthy of them?" Mrs. Jiang was also a bit nervous.
"What do you mean, unworthy? If Gu Shilin hadn’t pursued me so intensely, I wouldn’t have even noticed him! It’s his fortune to marry me, okay!" Jiang Meng didn’t want her parents to be too tense, so she tried to comfort them.
"Besides, why don’t you think about it? I’m at least a top student from Jing University, why shouldn’t I be able to marry him?" Jiang Meng snorted.
"Meng Meng does have a point, even if they’re rich, our family isn’t exactly poor either. We’re a traditional Chinese medicine family after all." Mr. Jiang suddenly gained confidence, thinking of his brilliant daughter who could practice medicine, was a top student, and would surely have a limitless future.
