Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 150 - Who is the Prettiest?
Chapter 150 -150 Who is the Prettiest?
Leng Yiran immediately said joyfully, “Then can you take me to play at the Gu Family’s place? I’ve never really been to their house before; I’ve only ever played around in the estate.”
Wan Manyu paused, then said, “No hurry, how about this, after work I’ll go have a coffee with you, and we can chat while we drink.”
…
Coffee shop.
Wan Manyu and Leng Yiran were sitting by the window.
Leng Yiran asked in confusion, “Why do we have to have coffee? Have you stayed abroad for so long that you think our domestic coffee is good too?”
Wan Manyu took a sip of her coffee, “It’s quite good.”
“But I want to go to your house, are you going back to the Gu Family’s place tonight?”
Wan Manyu put the cup down and then stared at Leng Yiran for a while.
“Are you still not over Gu Wei?”
Leng Yiran said, “I just can’t stand to see someone of such humble origin manage to marry Gu Wei! What does she have?”
“So what do you think are your advantages? Are you a beauty like no other, or highly talented, or capable of lending a hand to the Gu Family?”
Leng Yiran, seeing her blunt questioning, couldn’t help feeling upset, “Do you also think that Su Meixi is better than me in every way?”
“You first answer my previous question,” said Wan Manyu.
Leng Yiran, holding back her anger, “Fine, I think that in terms of appearance, I’m not inferior to Su Meixi, I’m a hundred times better looking than she is.”
“Appearance is something you can’t judge yourself; you need someone else to do that. You should ask others when you have time, of course, not your friends and relatives, otherwise, the answer won’t be objective.”
“I will ask then,” Leng Yiran said defiantly.
“The second question, are you highly talented?” Wan Manyu asked again.
“Well, at least I have studied abroad. Su Meixi has never even been out of the country, right?”
“Your studying abroad was because you didn’t do well on the college entrance exam, and you had to spend a lot of money to get a ‘gold plating’ overseas, unlike others who go abroad on scholarships. In terms of academic achievement, Su Meixi was accepted into a 211 university in China, and she was studying in another province, where the admission scores are higher.”
Leng Yiran: “…”
“So what? I graduated from a prestigious school.”
Wan Manyu said, “So, as a graduate of a prestigious school, what can you do to help the Gu Family? Why would Gu Wei divorce for you and get together with you?”
Leng Yiran choked on her words again.
She had been unemployed in China for years anyway, and not short of money; she often played with the socialites, ostensibly to expand her family’s connections, but in reality, the family business didn’t need her overtures; it was managed by her parents and several older brothers.
Wan Manyu said, “You like Gu Wei; everyone in the circle knows that, but you don’t really love him. If you did, then what’s with changing boyfriends every six months for all these years? If you truly loved someone, shouldn’t you remain as pure as Gu Cheng does?”
Leng Yiran: “…”
“You don’t love him. The reason you target Su Meixi is just because you can’t face your own failure. Why can she do it, and you can’t? Am I right?”
Leng Yiran was left without a shred of dignity. Angry, she asked, “In the end, am I your cousin, or is Su Meixi your cousin? Why are you taking her side? Or is it because you now have a godmother and you’ve taken the Gu Family’s side? Don’t forget, when your family was in trouble, it was my family that lent a hand.”
“It’s true your family helped, but it was your parents, not you. Plus, I’m just pointing out the problem, whether you acknowledge it or not.”
Leng Yiran finally couldn’t sit still; she stood up, spilled a cup of coffee on Wan Manyu and left.
Wan Manyu didn’t erupt in anger; when the shop assistant saw it, they were startled and quickly brought over napkins and a cloth asking, “Miss, do you need our help?”
Wan Manyu took a napkin from the staff’s hand and wiped her face, her expression still steady, “I’m fine, thank you; it’s just that I’ll have one less foolish relative in the future.”
…
Back at home, Leng Yiran thought over things, unable to let go.
Why did Wan Manyu think she was inferior to Su Meixi in every aspect?
She refused to believe it.
She wanted to ask around to see who was indeed the prettiest, but remembering Wan Manyu’s advice not to ask acquaintances, she opted to post on a certain book.
One was a picture of her decorated portrait, and the other was of Su Meixi, taken without her knowledge from a distance, so blurry even the face was hard to make out.
“Please help me look, which woman in the two pictures below is prettier? Everyone who replies will receive a sample of SK2 skincare products.”
As there was a reward, netizens quickly responded.
“I don’t know why the original poster is comparing, but responsibly speaking, the second picture is prettier. Even though it’s a bit blurry, judging by the facial features and the body, you can tell she’s stunning.”
“The first picture has been retouched, but you can tell that she’s had plastic surgery; it doesn’t look natural at all.”
“I think the first picture’s demeanor is also inferior to the second, the second is dignified yet charming, while the first, looks mean and petty.”
Leng Yiran angrily deleted the post.

What samples, dream on; she wouldn’t give a single bottle away!

It had been a month since Zhou Yuan got married.
Spring arrived early in Feng City; by March, the weather had already warmed up considerably.
“Brother Cheng, we haven’t gone on our honeymoon since we got married. When will you have time for us to go on a honeymoon together?” Zhou Yuan said to Gu Cheng, full of anticipation.
Traveling together was the best way to deepen their relationship.
Although the past month, the two lived no different from a normal married couple, she felt that they were missing a process, the process of falling in love and feeling excitement.
She didn’t know if it was because Gu Cheng was older, so he felt this way.
In any case, life was cozy yet bland, without passion.
Gu Cheng was eating, thought for a moment, and then nodded, “Next month I’ll arrange my work, maybe not for a whole month, but 20 days should be possible.”
Zhou Yuan was very content.
“Then that’s great, Brother Cheng, do you have any place you want to go?”
“I don’t, you decide,” Gu Cheng said.
“Well then..” Zhou Yuan wanted to go somewhere far away, so she said, “How about Europe?”
“Whatever you say.”
Zhou Yuan was a little disappointed because when she went on trips with her parents, they made the decisions and she just had to bring her clothes.
But since Gu Cheng agreed, she didn’t want to fuss over it, “Then I’ll plan a route, and you just have to follow me.”
“Okay.”
Zhou Yuan was so excited about traveling with Gu Cheng.
During that time, her daily social media posts counted down the days until their trip, “Counting down 15, 10, 5… days until Brother Cheng and I go on our trip.”
It was nothing short of showing off.
To the point of infuriating everyone.
