Even if you belong to a demonic sect, you still have to bring glory to the country.

Chapter 353: Caught as an Adulterer
The Kong family was able to send Kong Lexuan abroad to study.

There must be some capital in their family.

I never knew there was such a secret!
Li Sui was shocked: "So you want to have a whirlwind marriage with Wu Yang?"

Kong Lexuan nodded, making no attempt to hide her purpose: "I told Wu Yang that I was treating marriage like a game, but if I don't get married, it's like watching that money slip away. Besides, my cousin's family doesn't have a good relationship with us, but my father is still stubborn. He's getting anxious if I don't get married at this age, and my mother is also putting pressure on me."

"Instead of increasing my risk by dating a complete stranger, I chose Wu Yang, at least I know him well. I also found out that he hasn't married all these years and there are no other moral issues involved. Besides, I told Wu Yang that I would live a good life with him."

Li Sui stroked his chin: "You went back to Xia City because of this?"

Kong Lexuan shook her head: "It was mainly because of my father's illness that I chose to return to China. The company's transfer back to Xiacheng was an unexpected choice. I never thought I would meet Wu Yang again. Before this, I thought he was already married and had children."

After all, his family was under immense pressure, much like that of Wu's father.

Unexpectedly, upon returning to Xia City, they received surprising news.

Adding to the pressure from her father, Kong Lexuan started to have other ideas.

No wonder!
Li Sui began to understand her somewhat.

If you leave a sum of money there and say you won't take it, who would be willing to accept that?
But risking one's lifelong happiness for a sum of money is a different matter altogether.

No wonder she chose Wu Yang; after all, Wu Yang's character has been reliable over the years.

Besides the brain—

cough!
“But this is ultimately a personal choice, and we can’t force Yang Ge.” Li Sui was also somewhat troubled: “Miss Kong, it’s not that we don’t want to help, it’s just that we don’t know how. Even if we told my mother, she wouldn’t be able to persuade him. Besides, given the situation with the Wu family, you’d better not let Uncle Wu and Aunt Shen know, otherwise they’ll be overjoyed and put pressure on Yang Ge, and I’m afraid…”

After all, Wu Yang got into trouble last time.

If Wu Xingguo knew that Kong Lexuan was still willing to marry Wu Yang, he would be overjoyed.
What if the same thing happens again?

Kong Lexuan also said with concern, "I know the reason, so I found out that Wu Yang has a good relationship with your family. I plan to start with your mother first, without letting Wu Yang's parents know."

Kong Lexuan's thinking is still normal.

Otherwise, she could have easily approached Wu Yang's parents, but she didn't, at least because she knew she couldn't put pressure on Wu Yang.

Li Sui asked thoughtfully, "What did Yang Ge say when you went to see him?"

Kong Lexuan was speechless when she mentioned this: "He insisted that he and the rice cooker were already married. I said I was willing to live peacefully with the other party. He said that the Qing Dynasty had long since died out and polygamy was something from the last century."

Li Sui: “…”

Why did my mind suddenly become so sharp at this moment?

Kong Lexuan really went all out to get married in a flash.

Li Sui: "Don't you have any other suitable candidates around you?"

Kong Lexuan sighed, "The main reason is that I still have some lingering feelings for Wu Yang. If he rejected me for other reasons, that would be fine, but because of this, I'm really unwilling to accept it."

There must be something good about Wu Yang that makes her able to date him.

First love is the hardest to forget, even if it's due to family opposition and the unwillingness to break up.

Over the years, the filters must have been layered eighteen times thick.

Kong Lexuan was probably unwilling to accept it.

Her candor left Li Sui speechless.

It's somewhat difficult for a single mother like her to understand such thoughts.

However, Li Suizhen couldn't help her.

Seeing Li Sui's expression, Kong Lexuan knew the outcome, so she stood up, pursed her lips, and smiled, "I've really taken up your time today. I'll handle it myself first. If it works, great; if not, forget it." Li Sui could only stand up and nod to her, "I can only wish you a good outcome, Sister Kong."

Kong Lexuan nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you for listening to me."

She had a bright and generous smile after leaving the company.

Li Sui watched her retreating figure and sighed.

She and Wu Yang should have had a good outcome from the beginning, but things didn't go as planned.

Who could have imagined it would develop into what it is today?
"Why do we only give money when we get married? Do we not give it if we don't get married?"

Meng Jin suddenly appeared, and Li Sui glanced at her: "Weren't you at home helping Yao Rui?"

Meng Jin suddenly felt a little awkward: "I can't draw, so how can I help? Besides, it's not appropriate for us, a man and a woman, to be together."

"It's suitable, why wouldn't it be? Why are we still fussing about these things these days?" Li Sui chuckled. "As long as you have nothing to hide, isn't that all that matters?"

Meng Jin: "..."

She immediately changed the subject: "Master, you still haven't told me? From what I heard earlier, she said that her father intends to leave his fortune to her, on the condition that she gets married. Doesn't she have a younger brother?"

Although Meng Jin, who came from ancient times, had absorbed a lot of modern knowledge, she was still somewhat shocked by this situation.

Her shock did not stem from the need to get married in order to acquire assets.

But surprisingly, girls also have the right to inherit this asset.

During the Liang Dynasty, even the most outstanding girl could only get married.

If a family doesn't have a son, even the largest family fortune will be passed on to someone else.

Even the throne?
Although Meng Jin now accepts the possibility that the throne can be held by a woman, she still finds it difficult to change her mind on some minor details.

“Of course not, so what if she has a younger brother? They’ll split it equally!” Li Sui said matter-of-factly. “It’s possible that her father isn’t unwilling to give her the money, but rather that he’s worried because she hasn’t gotten married and there’s no one to carry on the family line, and he’s about to leave.”

Those with stricter requirements will often directly demand that you have a child first before discussing anything else.

It's someone else's business, so Li Sui couldn't speculate: "How can you say such a thing? You can't say that parents' money must belong to their children. After all, before inheritance, it is still the parents' assets."

Just as she wouldn't necessarily believe that the property Li Ping inherited from the Li family belonged to her.

"Oh..." Meng Jin seemed to realize something, as if she understood, yet also as if she didn't: "It's so complicated..."

Li Sui patted Meng Jin on the shoulder: "It's okay, you don't need to think it's complicated. You don't have any property to inherit."

Meng Jin: "..."

That being said, why does it feel a bit hurtful?

Li Sui's phone suddenly started buzzing with messages.

Looking down, I was surprised to see Zhong Mingjuan.

I opened the app and heard someone with an incredibly loud voice sending a voice message in the group chat, tagging @黎岁.

His tone was extremely excited.

"Li Sui, your relative, Qing something-or-other, has been caught cheating on you!! Now he's threatening to call the police!"

There are so many big news stories today!

Li Sui: “?”

What the hell are you talking about?!
