The woman pulled her son’s ear and whispered a long list of warnings: even if he couldn't end up with Gu Chaoyi, he must not dump her right now, or people would talk behind his back. It would be bad for his career advancement. She also said she had already picked out a new match for him—a girl from an educated family whose parents both worked in government offices. They were just waiting for her pregnancy to become too obvious to hide; once it was exposed, they could make a clean break, positioning their family as the victim. That way, even if he had been involved with a female comrade, no one could criticize him.
His future wife could be anyone, but she absolutely could not be Sang Yun! It was bad enough that she was involved with Wang Jinlong; the idea of her stepping foot into the Liu family home was laughable.
The woman’s hyper-critical gaze made Sang Yun uncomfortable. She rolled her eyes in secret. A mama’s boy—did he really think he was such a prize? If she didn't need his help, she wouldn't bother looking at someone like him twice.
