Newlyweds got the wrong marriage certificate, and his sweet, delicate wife is experiencing morning s
Chapter 151 The Exquisite Jade Pendant
Jiang Momo actually disliked having such physical contact with him, and she clicked her tongue slightly.
Li Yunqi was somewhat unhappy, but he didn't show it.
He was already very happy that Jiang Momo was willing to come here with him today.
Although Jiang Momo was after the jade pendant, he originally just wanted to try his luck.
Jiang Momo has never cared much about money and worldly possessions.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Momo was quite interested in this jade pendant. If I didn't know about Jiang Momo's background...
He would think that this jade pendant must have some connection with her ancestors to be able to move her so deeply.
The auction concluded at the end of the banquet, and now everyone is raising tall champagne glasses, chatting and laughing in the banquet hall.
"I told you, you should wear the clothes I prepared for you. Look how formally everyone else is dressed, and you look rather plain here."
Li Yunqi looked around at the surroundings and couldn't help but complain to Jiang Momo.
Jiang Momo didn't want to argue with him about this.
"But even dressed so simply, you still look better than them."
Li Yunqi quickly tried to smooth things over, his expression gentle and his eyes sincere.
If it were back in college, Jiang Momo would definitely be stunned by him.
Which young girl in the throes of first love wouldn't find such sweet talk charming?
But Jiang Momo had already seen Li Yunqi's hypocritical face, and was completely unmoved by these things.
"Isn't this Young Master Li? And who is this next to you?"
Jiang Momo was in a daze when a man of similar age to Li Yunqi walked towards her from a distance.
He looked handsome and dashing, just a bit overweight.
He no longer has the refreshing youthful charm of Li Yunqi.
He must be some rich kid from a wealthy family.
"My girlfriend. Stop asking about these things. Where's your girlfriend? Why didn't you bring her here?"
It seems that Li Yunqi and he have a pretty good relationship, as the two started chatting warmly as soon as they met.
The other person shook their head.
"You know, the girl I recently started dating is a college student. What does she know? She just gives me a little money and then throws herself at me. She's not presentable at all. Unlike your girlfriend, who's so beautiful and looks like she's from a well-to-do family."
These words made even Li Yunqi, who was used to all kinds of situations, feel a little embarrassed.
He hadn't expected the other person's emotional intelligence to be so low.
Jiang Momo didn't say anything, just smiled, lowered her head, picked up the wine, and took a sip.
"Jiang Momo, wait here for a while."
After whispering in Jiang Momo's ear, Li Yunqi pulled his brother away.
Compared to others in this circle, my identity is quite out of place.
But that was before. Since I started working under Jingtailan, everything has been very different.
It's just that people say birds of a feather flock together, and back in college...
Li Yunqi probably just thought of herself as a money-grubbing woman who had to cling to him.
That's why I was so sad when we broke up.
That's hilarious! Who does she think she is?
A short while later, Li Yunqi returned, and he said to Jiang Momo with a face full of apology.
That guy was being irresponsible; he's a scumbag. He's always been criticized for his actions. Tell Jiang Momo not to take it to heart.
"Why should I care? Isn't that what you think anyway?"
Looking into Jiang Momo's eyes, Li Yun was initially captivated by her beauty.
It took me a while to realize that I should answer her question.
Jiang Momo's upturned eyelashes and sparkling eyes.
It was what Li Yunqi had been thinking about day and night.
After breaking up and going abroad, he dated many girlfriends and met many people, even while abroad.
But he could never forget Jiang Momo.
Later, after returning to China, he went to a temple to have his fortune told, and the fortune teller said that Jiang Momo was the person he could never miss in his life.
Once you miss it, it will always be a thorn in your side.
The fortune teller said this is called "Peach Blossom Falling Seal".
Although it sounded mystical and unreal, Li Yunqi still felt that this was guidance from heaven.
Therefore, no matter how much effort he puts in, he must win back Jiang Momo's heart.
However, upon returning this time, I was surprised to learn that Jiang Momo had already gotten married.
So what? Compared to himself, Li Yunqi didn't believe Jiang Momo could find a better partner.
She is wealthy, young, highly educated, and comes from a good family.
Most importantly, he loves Jiang Momo so wholeheartedly.
Given Jiang Momo's qualifications, there's no way she could find a more outstanding match in the dating market.
Li Yunqi himself didn't realize that, subconsciously, he had always looked down on Jiang Momo's background.
"Why would you think that? Did I treat you badly back then?"
Jiang Momo swirled the wine glass in her hand, and a stray hair fell from her forehead.
She never expected that Li Yunqi would still have the nerve to bring up what happened back then.
Wasn't the humiliation I inflicted on myself back then enough? Why do I have to repeatedly confront myself with it?
Fortunately, the auction was about to begin, and Jiang Momo was finally free from wasting time on this pointless topic with Li Yunqi.
This little incident clearly put Li Yunqi in a bad mood.
However, since he was already here, he would keep his promise to Jiang Momo this time. He didn't want Jiang Momo to say that he was a person who broke his word again.
The items auctioned earlier were all pretty normal, including various jewelry and school supplies.
The people present were incredibly generous, casually raising the price by tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Although Jiang Momo knew that in a society with clear class distinctions, everyone's wealth levels were different.
But when I think about how I have no way to pay for my grandmother's medical expenses, and how I'm even willing to sell my whole life, I feel helpless.
She felt a little bewildered that they could donate so much money so easily.
These past few years have felt like I've gone from living one person's life to living another's.
Everything has changed dramatically, and although she's trying to adapt, she still occasionally feels a sense of loss.
This sense of loss does not stem from a desire for material wealth, but rather from a longing to return to the carefree days of the past.
You are free to pursue what you want to do and your dreams.
Instead of feeling exhausted from wandering through these arenas of fame and fortune.
Especially when she went back to face Li Jiuyuan, those things made her feel extremely painful.
She felt like she had become an object whose soul had been sold.
Her belly is a commodity.
Her deal with the Jiang family was simply to sell this womb that could nurture life.
Jiang Momo couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Next up is the mystery item of this auction, a jade pendant with exquisite seven-piece design that is not listed in the catalog."
