Chapter 449: 402, reward credited, continue to show off (asking for monthly tickets)
Ge Min was the kind of person who liked to show off, and after filming her video, she immediately sent it to the family group chat.
She was the third child in the house, with two older sisters and two younger brothers, and the family group chat, expanded from the five siblings, now boasted more than twenty members.
The younger generation tended to lurk silently in the chat, while the active ones were people from Ge Min's older generation.
Normally, everyone would share videos and photos to share bits of their lives.
This time, Ge Min suddenly shared a video of a luxury house and the usually active Ge Jing, the second sister, immediately asked in surprise, "Third sis, where is this? Such a beautiful house!"
"Rich," which was Ge Min, immediately replied, It's our Wenwen's matrimonial home!
Upon releasing this news, the family group chat exploded.
"What! Is Wenwen getting married??"
"What's going on, you never mentioned this before!"
"Wenwen's getting married? I haven't even met the brother-in-law yet!"
"@Wenwen, Sister Wenwen, are you really getting married??"
"Wenwen, that's really fast! We haven't even met your boyfriend!"
"Yeah, let's arrange a meal when you have time!"
"Sister Wenwen, your boyfriend has to treat us, can't just whisk you away so easily!"
Although the younger ones rarely spoke up in the group chat, they lurked and were quick to inquire upon hearing that Ma Wenwen was getting married, especially a few cousins who were quite close to her.
Ma Wenwen hadn't been looking at the chat messages, and only noticed when someone @'ed her; by then, her mother had already been discussing with her aunt and uncle, making her upcoming wedding on the ninth of next month public in the chat.
Actually, Ma Wenwen was still somewhat bewildered; everything had happened too fast, and she felt like she was in a dream, with an unreal sensation.
She squeezed Yu Dongdong's hand firmly and tiptoed to whisper in his ear, "Are you really ready?"
Upon hearing her question, Yu Dongdong nodded solemnly. Although things had moved fast, this was the outcome he wanted; regarding marriage, he was much more resolute than Ma Wenwen.
For Ma Wenwen, there were plenty of options, with even suitors at her own company.
But for Yu Dongdong, Ma Wenwen was everything.
"I feel like everything's a dream!"
Ma Wenwen lamented while they stood on the balcony; she turned around, pointing to the spacious living room that was almost as big as her family's, asking, "Is this really going to be our home in the future?"
"Really, this house is a bit too big!"
Everyone has their vanity, and Ma Wenwen was no exception; her relatives and sisters often made comparisons.
However, she usually disdained such comparisons, having inherited her father's Buddhist-like personality, mostly opting out of such meaningless rivalries.
Yet now, the luxury houses and cars her relatives and sisters coveted in their dreams, she had acquired them effortlessly, and to say she wasn't happy would be untrue.
She just hadn't fully accepted the fact yet, feeling that everything was too fantastical.
At that moment, someone called Ma Wenwen on Weixun voice, it was her cousin Zhang Lina, who was two years older than her. They had grown up together and had a good relationship.
Ma Wenwen hesitated briefly before pressing the accept call button.
"Wenwen, what's going on, how come you're getting married all of a sudden?"
Zhang Lina's voice came through as soon as they connected.
"Yeah, it just got confirmed."
"Who's the groom?"
"It's not that mute kid, is it?"
Previously, Ma Wenwen had talked about Yu Dongdong with Zhang Lina, but her cousin and her mother Ge Min were adamantly against it.
"Yeah, it's Dongdong!"
Ma Wenwen unconsciously glanced at Yu Dongdong standing next to her, grateful that he couldn't hear the voice of her cousin Zhang Lina through the handset.
Otherwise, being called "the mute kid" wouldn't have been nice to hear.
"Huh?"
"Have you gone crazy?"

"I mean, dating is fine, but actually getting married??"
"I really don't understand what you're thinking!!"
Zhang Lina was shocked, her words filled with disbelief.
"Would your Auntie agree?"
"No, wait, she must have agreed otherwise she wouldn't make the announcement in the group chat!"
"Is that mute kid a rich second generation or what?"
"The house your mom posted in the chat looks really big!"
Zhang Lina knew Auntie Ge Min well; if she didn't approve of the marriage, she never would have boasted in the group chat.
So, as she spoke, it dawned on her that her cousin Ma Wenwen's mute boyfriend must be really wealthy; otherwise, her aunt wouldn't have consented.
Having this realization, Zhang Lina's voice dropped a notch on the phone. Her relationship with her cousin Ma Wenwen was rather delicate; they were certainly close, yet due to their similar ages, they often found themselves the subjects of comparison by the older generation.
First, it was academic grades, then which college they attended, now it was about jobs, boyfriends, and so on.
Zhang Lina currently had a boyfriend who was a white-collar worker and a local from Jiangcheng, from an okay family.
And yet, Ma Wenwen's boyfriend was mute, a detail that had always allowed Zhang Lina to feel superior in this aspect.
Even her mother Ge Jing would occasionally boast about her daughter's boyfriend in the chat.
But while the two hadn't considered getting married, Ma Wenwen had already set a wedding date. Not only that but the matrimonial home seemed very luxurious.
This turn of events left Zhang Lina feeling defeated!
