Chapter 802 - Ruining the Event (1)

Fraternal twins?

This revelation stunned everyone.

The woman who had earlier failed at sucking up immediately smiled and spoke again, “Wow, seriously? This means that they could very well be a girl and a boy!”

As soon as she said this, the people around her chimed in. “I was wondering why her belly seems larger than normal for someone two to three months pregnant. How blessed. Not only does her husband dote on her, now she could be having both a boy and a girl in her first pregnancy? This is beyond awesome!”

“Yes, yes. Some people are so lucky we can’t even begin to envy. Sigh!”

“Exactly. Some people don’t have such good fortune. What’s meant to be yours will be yours.” Tong Yujia smiled smugly and glanced at Li Beinian.

It went without saying whom this remark was targeted at.

The provocation was obvious to everyone.

A girl who was obviously on good terms with Tong Yujia said, “Just listen to yourself. Of course, people who know you will understand that you’re just envious. Those who don’t know any better would think that you’re mocking Miss Li!”

Tong Yujia put on a shocked expression yet again and said, “I’m saying this from the bottom of my heart. How is it mockery?”

“Hmph, you’re obviously mocking Miss Li for not being destined to be together with Eldest Young Master Mu. In the past, Miss Li was a third party who came in between Sister Kerou and Eldest Young Master Mu, and then broke off the engagement. Isn’t that what you meant when you said ‘what’s meant to be yours will be yours.’?”

This person who spoke very candidly didn’t look very old.

Many of the women who were at the wedding event were either wives or daughters of men in high positions. Naturally, they knew that whatever they said and however they behaved in public would affect their husband’s career.

At this point, some people were beginning to feel that these words were too targeted. A few people chimed in, but most people chose to remain silent.

A woman who looked like an elder immediately stepped forward and pretended to hit the girl’s hand. “What nonsense are you talking about!”

Her tone was a little fierce, but she did not hit the girl with much force.

Then, she turned around sheepishly and said, “The child doesn’t mean any harm. She’s only 17 years old. Please don’t mind her words too much.”

At this point, Li Beinian glanced at the woman with a smirk and said, “Don’t worry about it. In fact she’s speaking the truth. Eldest Young Master Mu and I are not fated to be together, and it’s a pity that the match made between the elders of the two families had delayed Miss Lin. I’m just very curious though, given Miss Lin has such deep feelings for Eldest Young Master Mu... If I hadn’t rejected Eldest Young Master Mu, would Miss Lin have chosen to remain single for Eldest Young Master Mu’s sake, or would she have been willing to become a secret lover?”

Li Beinian’s smile was kind, but her words caused Lin Kerou’s expression to freeze.

With that remark, not only had she refuted Tong Yujia’s remarks, but she also revealed the real reason behind the breaking of the engagement between herself and Mu Donglin.

The hanging question dripped with mockery and malice.

On this note, no one dared to speak further.

They turned to look at Lin Kerou.

At this point, the smugness on the girl’s face was completely gone. Her expression turned ugly as she looked at Li Beinian.

Her hand that was placed on her belly had sunk into her wedding dress in a tightening grip.
