Talking Bad About the Dead

Leslie heard a few interesting things while lingering in the dining hall. The relatives gossiped among themselves while some of the older ones dared ask Calix about his choice of marrying the neglected young lady of the Li family.

"If you didn't favor any of the blind dates, you should tell your aunt here. I have a good candidate for you."

"Why did you pick her? Isn't she still in a coma? What if she stays like that forever?"

"If you want someone from the Li family, shouldn't you pick their second young miss? If I'm not mistaken, her name is Gladys."

More and more questions were thrown at Calix. Leslie wanted to laugh out loud but, she didn't want to hear him nagging at her later. Even now, he subtly glared in her direction whenever he could.

CEO Xu's defense skills were exemplary. He successfully dodged every question about his sudden marriage but, it didn't mean he enjoyed prolonging it.
