Love is not cheap.
It's the most expensive thing in this world. One might have to pay with everything they got but they still can't afford it.
Love is actually really demanding.
It takes your heart.
It takes your soul.
And then,
It asks for more...
Xu Mey was one of the people who couldn't afford this luxury in her life. And the reason was not the fact that she didn't have anything to offer, it was just that she wasn't aware of what love felt like or what it meant. The only kind of love she knew about was which she shared with her best friends.
Looking at that happy couple getting married, a sudden question popped up in her mind. 'Is it love that led the bride and groom to this stage?' Laughing at her own ridiculous thought, she shook her head lightly.
The thing that led them to marriage was definitely not loving instead it was mutual benefits for their respective families. Wu Xia, the bride was actually her best friend, Wu w.a.n.g's younger sister and Xu Mey knew that w.a.n.g's chose Ming Qu as her life partner because it was beneficial for business.
Owing to the fact that humans look for their own benefit these days. A mere marriage is also a form of convenience for both parties. No one loves without a rationale.
Xu Mey sighed closing her raven colored eyes for a moment. There was a metaphor she remembered, 'Good medicine tastes bitter.'
But for her, relations.h.i.+ps and love were always like, 'Bitter medicine tastes good.'
"My poor sister is happily walking towards a prison," Wu w.a.n.g who was sitting beside Xu Mey said in a low murmur. Understanding his meaning, she laughed.
She knew only a brother like Wu w.a.n.g would say that his sister's married life is like a prison.
"w.a.n.g boy, keep your voice down before your parents hear it," She said in a calm voice. "It's her own choice, anyway." Wu w.a.n.g nodded his head in agreeing with her.
"Oh dear, this boy is too clean. I can't find a speck of dirt on him," Li Qiao joined the conversation as he stared at his tablet with a look of loss.
