Chapter 567 - Li Yufeng’s Plot! (4)
Li Yufeng continued, “Nainai, I know you don’t like me saying this, because you young people don’t care about things like these. But I’m saying this because I want the best for you — there are lots of couples now who have prenuptial agreements, and there are lots of wives who put their names in house deeds… things like these are now very common.”
Hearing this, Zhuang Nainai raised her brows. She had a feeling as to what Li Yufeng was about to say next. Expectedly, Li Yufeng continued, “Nainai, men aren’t reliable, and the best form of security is to have money in your hands. Let’s not talk about other people, let’s just talk about your mother-in-law, Ding Mengya… She’s a famous example in our circles. At that time, when your father-in-law betrayed her, she simply swept him out the door…”
“So, what are you trying to say?” Zhuang Nainai was unable to bear hearing any of this any longer, and she wanted to hear what Li Yufeng’s motives were.
Li Yufeng spoke further. “I want you to… get a portion of the shares from Mr. Si, and then have those shares under your name.”
Zhuang Nainai narrowed her eyes. “Huh?”
Li Yufeng replied, “You’ve just gotten married to him, and everything is rosy for you. You’re pregnant. Plus, with the issue of the design drafts earlier… he’s probably feeling guilty toward you, and he’ll surely agree to giving you some shares if you ask for them. Tell him you don’t need much — just five percent will do, or maybe 10.”
Having said this, Li Yufeng lowered her head. “This way, when you’re older and there are younger people available for him, if he has a mistress… at the very least, you wouldn’t have wasted so many years of your youth.”
Zhuang Nainai immediately felt disgusted by such thinking. She raised her brows and was about to reply when Li Yufeng continued, “Even if you don’t think for yourself, at least think for the child in your stomach. Nainai, you…”
“Okay, I get what you mean.” Zhuang Nainai cut her off. “But we’re husband and wife now, and I trust him. Also, even if there comes a day when he doesn’t want me anymore, I’ll still have the ability to support myself and my child. I didn’t marry him for money.”
Li Yufeng furrowed her brows. Just as she was about to reply, Zhuang Nainai cut her off once more. “In the beginning, I married him with impure intentions — that is true. You’re wrong in that if we split in the future, I’d have given him my youth. Wouldn’t he also have given me his youth? So please, don’t talk about something like this in the future.”
Li Yufeng’s tone grew impatient. “What’s wrong with you? Don’t you know that women are always on the losing end? You’re too naive in your thinking.”
Zhuang Nainai said, “I know I’m being innocent and naive, but I didn’t marry into any normal family. I married Si Zhengting, and I trust him.”
Having gone through so much, if she was still unable to ascertain that Si Zhengting loved her… their marriage would have hit its end long ago.
Seeing that Zhuang Nainai was resolute, Li Yufeng knew that she would be unable to persuade her any further. Heaving a huge sigh, she said, “You’re taking this too seriously!”
With that, she stood up. “If this is how things are going to be like, then forget it. Let’s go.”
Gu Xingshan wanted to stay a little longer, but Li Yufeng was firm. Having no choice, she stood up to leave too.
Li Yufeng waited until the car moved out of the Si residence before picking up her phone to make a call to Ding Mengya. “Hello, In-Law? I would like to meet you to discuss some things.”
