Chapter 1761 - 1763: Truer Than Pearls
Chapter 1763: More Real Than Pearls
Yang Ming’s persuasion of the Li Family went smoothly, since it was all for Li Chuntao’s own good.
But things weren’t as smooth for Xiaoxiao.
As soon as they entered Li Chuntao’s room, Li Chuntao asked, "Xiaoxiao, is your husband reliable?"
"Huh?" Xiaoxiao was baffled by the question. Why is she asking about Yang Ming?
But she quickly realized that Yang Dong was right. Although Li Chuntao had lost her memory, she was still the same person and hadn’t changed.
She was probably worried again, afraid that Xiaoxiao had married an unreliable man, so Xiaoxiao immediately replied, "My husband is really great, he’s steady and reliable. You don’t need to worry, I’m doing well at the Yang Family. My in-laws are very nice, and I get along with my sisters-in-law like we’re real sisters. My little sister-in-law is wonderful, too. In their family, I’m not treated like a princess, but almost."
"Really? You’re not lying to me?" Li Chuntao was a bit incredulous, thinking, if Yang Dong could do such foolish things, can their family really be reliable?
Xiaoxiao nodded, "Really, more real than pearls."
These words seemed to trigger something in Li Chuntao’s mind, causing a sharp pain in her head once again.
However, she didn’t delve deeper, instead she continued, "I’m just afraid the person you fell for at first sight isn’t reliable, but since you’re saying this, I’ll tentatively believe you."
"..." What could Xiaoxiao say? Li Chuntao really doesn’t believe in love at first sight!
"Haha, definitely reliable, you can rest assured. But enough about me, let’s talk about you. Why are you looking to get married now?"
"Who knows? As soon as I came back, lots of matchmakers showed up asking for marriage. So I’m just picking and choosing. I can’t believe it’s true; I used to think no one wanted to marry me!"
This indeed shocked Li Chuntao; it was something she never dared to dream of before.
Xiaoxiao felt a bit awkward, "It’s because you’ve become beautiful, and you have a good background. Plus, you opened an academy and you’re a very impressive woman. Of course, everyone would be eager to marry you. But you must keep your eyes open; those coming to propose now are all drawn to your appearance, they might not actually love you."
Li Chuntao nodded, "I know, and many aren’t suitable, so I’ve turned them down!"
"Are you really planning to find someone?" Xiaoxiao teased.
"I’m just seeing my mother so eager, I don’t want to embarrass her, so I’m just considering it. Enough about that, why did you come?"
Xiaoxiao wanted to ask more about it, but seeing Li Chuntao didn’t want to discuss it, she decided not to press.
"Of course, I came to see you. You left without saying a word, how could I not worry? You were injured and had amnesia!"
Being spoken to like this, Li Chuntao also felt it was a bit inappropriate to have left like that, and she quickly said, "Alright, I was wrong for not telling you when I left. But I’m perfectly fine now, eating and drinking well, doing great!"
Looking at Li Chuntao now, she indeed seemed well. Her energy was good, her complexion bright and healthy, she must have been nourishing herself well!
She couldn’t help but remind her, "Don’t eat too much meat, or you’ll gain weight again!"
"Hahaha, my mother keeps making delicious food, I couldn’t resist. But if I have to avoid meat just to stay thin, what’s the point of life?"
"But if you gain weight again, what if no one wants you?"
"If someone can’t accept me being chubby, then they don’t truly love me."
"..." Well, she’s speechless, because everything Li Chuntao said was right!
