Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract

Chapter 692: Love Takes Root (137)

"Mmm, don’t worry, those who want to marry you wouldn’t even mind being a stepmother, let alone caring about you already having a legal wife."

Long Yubei found himself unable to refute her words, his hand slowly reached her waist and pinched it, "Such an ungrateful thing."

Gu Lili twisted her body slightly, "Judging from my perspective, your father is completely oblivious. The only reason your third brother was forced to marry Jun Xiangyi was because of your father’s inaction. Knowing that his son had someone he loved, he still put forward his name. Couldn’t he have excluded you and your third brother when that list was submitted?"

"You dare to criticize my father?"

"I have issues with him, what about it?"

"You’re quite bold."

"Only in front of you. I wouldn’t dare in front of him."

He knew it would be like this and leaned in to kiss her, "This is already very good."

...

According to tradition, the wedding ceremony for taking a concubine is required to be extremely simple, so much so that it can be simplified to not having any ceremony at all, and a verbal agreement would suffice.

But how could Xu Mohan begrudge Nan Yuesheng.

Regardless of his father’s objection, he held a ceremony identical to Jun Xiangyi’s.

The wedding was carried out smoothly.

Nan Ningyi was taken back to the mortal world by Gu Lili.

Nan Yuesheng sat in the bridal chamber, waiting for Xu Mohan to return.

But before he arrived, Jun Xiangyi came first.

During the wedding ceremony, Jun Xiangyi had not shown any displeasure throughout.

But at this moment, she could no longer hold back.

Why should a concubine have the same treatment as hers?

Thus, she lifted Nan Yuesheng’s bridal veil in one swift move.

The instant their eyes met, Jun Xiangyi smiled.

In her eyes, Nan Yuesheng’s appearance didn’t hold a candle to her own.

"Really, I don’t see what’s so valuable about you, for him to do so much for you — just a secondhand woman who’s had another man’s child."

Nan Yuesheng didn’t speak, simply covered her head with her bridal veil again.

Seeing that she was ignoring her, Jun Xiangyi’s anger surged even more, and she once again lifted the veil on Nan Yuesheng’s head, "Since I agreed to accept you, I can also agree to accept others. After all, I don’t love him, and I don’t mind. But you, a human, you probably can’t tolerate it, can you?"

Nan Yuesheng’s eyes were clear, "Sister truly has the demeanor of a legal wife, considering so much for Mohan. As for Mohan, aside from whose heart he belongs to, I don’t care about the rest. His taking me as a concubine is because he likes me; as for other women, he probably isn’t interested in taking any as concubines."

"You really lower my estimation of you. I originally thought you would not want to be his concubine."

"If one is vexed by status, it’s the pain of both. After all, the marriage between sister and Mohan was forced, not willingly. Knowing that he cannot resist, why should I fuss over these superficial matters? After all, life isn’t too long or too short, one shouldn’t spend their life with a mere title."

Her words ruthlessly dissected Jun Xiangyi’s current situation.

"Isn’t that how all marriages are?"

"Of course not. To find someone you like who likes you back is a comedy; to find someone neither you nor they like is a tragedy."

"Don’t forget, even if I don’t love Xu Mohan and he doesn’t love me, I am still his first and foremost wife. Even if he doesn’t want to see me, he still has to share a bed with me..."

The door was pushed open, Xu Mohan came in wearing red wedding clothes, "I won’t."

"Xu Mohan..."

"Jun Xiangyi, I won’t sleep with you. From the day we married, you were destined to live a life that’s not much different from before. Don’t think that just because you’re my legal wife, you’re really my Madam. In my heart, Sheng’er is my only wife, and you, you are nothing. I advise you to propose to the Heavenly King for a divorce sooner so that you may find a good match yourself. Otherwise, I guarantee, no matter how many years pass, your life will still continue to be the same. Think about it yourself. Now please leave, we are to have our wedding night."
