Chapter 262: I Love You (36)
"Kids from families like ours, a few years into working and it’s time to marry; work is almost put on hold to have children, and life just goes like that. It’s not easy to turn things around unless you marry a good husband."
Liang He asked with a smile that was not quite a smile, "A husband with money and power?"
He couldn’t think of anything else that would count as a turning point for a family like hers.
"Yes," she said with a bitter smile. "But do you know Brother Liang? It’s even harder to find such a good husband to turn your life around than it is to do it yourself. People from families like yours don’t give a second glance to those of us from humble beginnings."
"Who says?" He raised an eyebrow. "As far as I know, many rich families’ heirs marry women from not-so-good backgrounds and still get married. When love comes, family status and conditions are no longer the primary criteria."
"What about you?"
"I, too, put feelings and love first. Look at Long Yubei; when he married Sister-in-law Lili, didn’t he do it without letting family background stand in the way?"
"That’s because Sister Lili is extraordinary and has special abilities."
"You’re wrong," Liang He corrected. "Gu Xichen’s mother also had those abilities, but after marrying and having children, she was still kicked out. In the end, it all depends on the man’s attitude."
