The sky had not yet completely darkened when the entire Jiangnan region was illuminated by colorful lights. At the entrance of the magnificent commercial district, cars were coming and going, and the voices of people were bustling. Many young men and women were coming and going. At the street entrance, a red BMW slowly pulled up and stopped by the door.
As the car door opened, the appearance of Grant and Daisy immediately attracted the attention of many passersby. Daisy's sexy short skirt paired with her long, fair thighs caught the eyes of countless people as soon as she stepped out of the car.
"Is she a model? Her figure is amazing, and she's so beautiful."
"The guy next to her is probably her boyfriend, right?"
"Although he's dressed casually, he's still quite handsome if you look closely."
The passersby's exclamations were heard one after another, but soon their attention was drawn to the other side, where a beautiful girl in a white printed T-shirt and brown boots was walking over.
"Daisy, you're here?" Selina waved and walked over to Daisy.
Daisy gently hugged Selina and smiled, "Selina, I haven't seen you since you went abroad in high school. I didn't expect you to become so beautiful."
"You're not bad yourself, Daisy."
Selina smiled and then noticed Grant standing next to them.
"You're Grant?"
Her eyes were filled with strong disdain. She had heard about it when she was abroad: Daisy had married a loser who not only had no skills, but also relied on her for a living. She never expected that Daisy would bring him out this time. Looking at Grant's shabby street vendor outfit, he probably didn't have more than 200 dollars, and he couldn't even afford one of Daisy's earrings, could he?
Grant nodded and calmly said, "Hello."
Selina ignored him and quietly pulled Daisy aside, asking, "Daisy, why are you with this loser?"
Hearing this, Daisy frowned. She knew that Selina was her close friend, but Grant was already her husband, and he had helped her a lot these days. Although she had not fully accepted him, she could now face their relationship.
"He's not a loser. At least for now, he's still my husband," Daisy said firmly, showing a rare angry expression.
"You...you don't really take him as your husband, do you?" Selina looked at Daisy as if she had seen a ghost.
"No, but I'm trying my best," Daisy nodded seriously. "Su Xue and Zhang Mei have already arrived, and your boyfriend is already ordering inside, right? Let's go in quickly and not keep him waiting."
Seeing that Daisy didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, Selina could only nod helplessly and say, "Okay."
Grant was about to follow from behind when Selina suddenly turned around, blocked him with a cold face, and said, "Grant, I hope you will divorce Daisy immediately and not delay my best friend's future!"
Selina's tone was extremely cold. "You, a loser like you, are not qualified to marry Daisy."
Grant said calmly, "Who I marry seems to have nothing to do with you, right?" "She is my best friend, of course it has something to do with me!" Selina said. "My friends and I are all from upper-class families. You are not qualified and not worthy to be with Daisy!"
"You have no idea about the difference between you and her, just like this car I bought. You probably won't be able to sit in it even once in your lifetime!" Selina pointed at her black Maserati, with a condescending expression on her face, as if he and herself were two completely different people.
"So I advise you to divorce her early, so as not to lose face later!"
"I'm not worthy? I don't have the qualifications to fit into your circle?" Grant looked at Selina, with a funny curve on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't you think your words are a bit ridiculous?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Grant's whole demeanor changed. He was like a war god who had crossed mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Just by looking at each other, Selina felt as heavy as lead in her feet.
"In my eyes, the capital of pride is not worth mentioning at all!"
"If it weren't for Daisy, you wouldn't even have the right to speak to me!"
With a casual glance at Selina, Grant turned and walked into the restaurant, leaving Selina standing there like a wooden chicken.
Listening to Grant repeating her words back to her, Selina was stunned, then angrily laughed and said, "Ha, Grant, I don't know where you got the courage to say such things to me. Today, I will definitely make Daisy completely disappointed in you!"
With that, Selina gritted her teeth and walked into the restaurant.
"Daisy, over here!"
"Long time no see, Daisy." Su Xue and Zhang Mei had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Daisy, they waved to her to come over.
"Oh, Selina's best friend is here. I'm Isaac, his friend," he said.
"Hello, this is my husband, Grant," Daisy introduced.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Mu," the man in the suit sitting in his seat stood up immediately and shook hands with Grant. Seeing how beautiful Daisy was, he couldn't be an ordinary person, right?
Therefore, Isaac immediately prepared to make friends with Grant. More friends, more paths.
Grant shook hands politely and said, "Hello, but I'm not a CEO. Just call me Grant."
"Mr. Mu is too modest. May I know which company you run?" Isaac continued to ask with his glasses on.
"He's just a freeloader who married in through the back door. Does he have the qualifications to be called Mr. Mu?"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind. Isaac turned around and saw that it was Selina, his girlfriend.
"Selina, don't joke around. If Mr. Mu didn't have the ability, could he marry such a beautiful woman as his wife?" Isaac heard something wrong, but still continued to ask.
Grant frowned slightly, but didn't say much.
"He's just a useless person who married in through the back door. Who in Jiangnan doesn't know that? You just haven't heard of it while studying abroad," Selina sneered. She was full of resentment. She never thought that just mocking him a few times would make him dare to come to their doorstep and show his face.
You should know that Selina, although not as good as Daisy, comes from a second-rate aristocratic family. But still, she was born into a wealthy family. With just a little money, she could crush Grant, a useless person who married in through the back door.
What right does a useless person who married in through the back door have to challenge her?
She wanted to make Grant look bad, so she mercilessly exposed him in front of her boyfriend.
"This..." Isaac hesitated upon hearing his girlfriend Selina's words.
Grant, on the other hand, was very candid and nodded in agreement. "I am indeed a son-in-law."
"Damn, that's true!" Isaac couldn't take it anymore and shook his hand forcefully. Who knows how dirty those hands that wash and cook at home all day are? And shaking hands with a son-in-law only lowers his status. Isaac's face showed a disdainful expression. That whole scene was a waste of his time.
At that moment, the other two girlfriends sitting beside them stared at Grant with strange eyes, whispering to each other.
"What's wrong with Daisy? Why did she find this loser?"
"Yeah, Daisy was the school flower back in college, and there were so many guys chasing after her. Why did her taste become so low now?"
"I heard that Grant was chosen by Daisy's father for the wedding. Ah, poor Daisy, her good life was ruined by a loser like him."
The other two girls kept murmuring, seeming to feel sorry for Daisy. Their eyes towards Grant were like looking at a stray dog, without any respect.
"It doesn't matter. Although he is Daisy's husband, they will be divorced soon." Selina sneered at Grant and said coldly, "As soon as the time comes, Daisy can kick him out anytime!"
"Selina!"
Daisy frowned. Selina, her best friend, was being too harsh with her words.
"Did I say something wrong?" Selina glared, not expecting Daisy to get angry with her over a useless person. She flushed with anger. "He was a useless person who couldn't do anything!"
"No, he's not useless! At least Grant was a former special forces soldier and is very good at fighting," Daisy sat angrily next to Grant and defended him.
Moreover, Grant had protected her several times before.
