Chapter 267: Like-minded

On the lawn in the backyard, there were several temporary self-service tables filled with various exquisite snacks and expensive champagne for the guests to enjoy.

The guests who came were not important figures, mainly some young friends of Li Mubai. Chen Ping initially just made an appearance, then went to the Huarun Hotel to entertain those relatives and friends, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to seek more support for the group.

Leaving Li Mubai alone, it was inevitable that he would become the center of attention. In less than half an hour, he was already half drunk and could only use the excuse of going to the bathroom to sneak away to the edge of the pool to catch his breath.

"When I got married last time, there weren't so many damn things happening."

Li Mubai had no choice but to complain. Sitting by the pool, he unbuttoned his shirt and took out a cigarette, lighting it up and smoking in the night breeze.

"What, you've been married before?"

Suddenly, a crisp and gentle voice came from behind.

Li Mubai turned his head and saw a beautiful woman slowly approaching in the dim light. Her face was like the moon in mid-autumn, her skin was as white as snow, and her figure swayed under the violet-colored long dress, exuding an elegant and noble temperament.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing was her innate charm, even the way she pointed at the champagne glass was like a captivating melody.

"A natural beauty!"

Li Mubai sighed inwardly, but still smiled on his face, waving his hand and saying, "Miss Yang, when did you arrive?"

It was Sun Shuyang. Last time, Li Mubai sent an invitation letter to He Dong in the group, and also sent someone to send one to Sun Shuyang at Junshi Foundation. And because the previous two encounters were pleasant, he even called her to invite her to dinner tonight.

It turned out that Sun Shuyang didn't reply due to work commitments, but in the end, she still came.

"I just arrived not long ago. You were surrounded by a group of people and didn't have time to say hello, so I got bored and came out for a stroll. I happened to run into the solitary Li Young Master." Sun Shuyang walked gracefully and sat directly beside him.

"There are too many people and they're too enthusiastic. I apologize for the poor hospitality." Li Mubai smiled apologetically.

"It's okay, these gatherings and banquets are all the same boring routine. I'm used to it." Sun Shuyang glanced at him sideways, elegantly waving her champagne glass. "I seem to have heard someone say that you were secretly married before, Li Young Master. Is that true?"

Li Mubai's heart tightened, and he quickly made up an excuse, saying, "What I meant was, when a friend got married last time, I found it interesting and fun as a guest. But when it's my turn, it's just painful. No wonder so many people insist on getting married only once in their lifetime."

...Please give flowers...

Upon hearing this, Sun Shuyang couldn't help but smile, her voice clear as a flute. Then she looked at Li Mubai seriously and said, "I understand now. You're like me, not suitable for marriage."

Seeing Li Mubai's puzzled expression, she added, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying that you still have lingering thoughts about other women. I'm saying that you have a deep-rooted aversion to marriage. Am I right?"

"Miss Yang is quite perceptive." Li Mubai forced a smile, with a hint of sadness.

If it weren't for the system's chaotic matchmaking, and the experience of a failed marriage, he, who used to have a fear of marriage, would never have thought of getting married.
