Lai Wenyan listened, and the gloom on his face was no longer so intense.
He knew that Tang Li was telling the truth.
The man Tang Li was to marry had an extraordinary social status.
Putting aside the identity of a president, Song Baiyan was still the Family Head of the Song Family, his wife couldn't possibly be some Cinderella.
Besides—
Even in fairy tales, Cinderella's father was a count, not a commoner.
The marriage of Song Baiyan symbolized the alliance of two families.
At least for the next few decades, the Lai Family would be in the same boat as the Song Family.
Perhaps Song Baiyan indeed liked Tang Li a lot, but such affection wouldn't come without weighing it carefully; that Song Baiyan settled on this betrothal signifies the value of the Lai Family in his heart.
As for Tang Li, wanting to stand tall in the Song Family after marriage, having a good family background is a necessary prerequisite.
