Xing Liyan never expected that he’d come across a filthy, foul-smelling madwoman just by going out to clear his head.
Lu Fang never expected that, while picking up a shoe, she’d end up tumbling into a stinking ditch full of garbage.
A few months later, news of a happy event spread through the Xing family of the capital. The man even dogs disliked had married a woman from a poor family, and she was divorced to boot.
All the women who coveted Xing Liyan waited to see how his wife would be thrown out after marrying into wealth.
But who could have guessed that in both looks and bearing, she would outshine them all?
The day after the wedding, Xing Liyan gave an interview to the media.
“Mr. Xing, why did you marry that woman? Aside from being pretty, she has nothing going for her,” a female reporter asked, holding up her microphone and speaking with biting sarcasm.
“As long as she’s prettier than you, that’s enough.” Xing Liyan couldn’t even be bothered to look at the reporter.
“...”
“Mr. Xing, we’ve heard your wife’s family is nowhere near as wealthy as the Xing family. Do you believe a couple doesn’t need to come from matching backgrounds?”
“I’m not Sun Wukong.” Xing Liyan glanced at his watch, his brows knitting together.
“Go home and wait for your court summons. Stop wasting my time. I need to get back and do the laundry.” With that, he hurried away, leaving the reporters behind.
