He Ximei quietly asked Su Peng for his opinion after the girl's parents had called her into the room.
"Mom, Su Peng and I want to be like friends first. You know I'm still planning to set up a shop in the city and I don't want to marry too early," Wu Wenli said, having earned quite a bit of money for her family, she held some sway at home.
"You silly child, I'm asking if he agrees. If he does, you should marry first. I'm telling you, all this dating and stuff is fake; getting married first is what's real. Men, especially those who are well-off, might change their minds any time."
"Mom, if he's that kind of person, I should be even more cautious. If after we married, he becomes inconsistent, it would be me who suffers. This shows how important it is to really know a person before marrying. Don't you think?"
