The vicious female supporting role changes careers and becomes a top wealthy mama's girl

As a 25-year-old young woman who was still longing for love, Pang Xie really didn't understand what Su Jinli meant.

Why is marriage a gamble? If it is a gamble, then what is the stakes she is talking about?

After a few seconds of silence, Pang Xie couldn't help but say weakly, "I thought all wealthy people's marriages were happy, because you don't have to worry about buying a house in this capital city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, the man doesn't have to worry about the bride price, and the woman doesn't have to worry about raising children. A strong union like yours and Mr. Li's is even more powerful, so how could you not be happy after marriage? Isn't it said that money can solve 90% of life's problems?"

Listening to Pang Xie's question, Su Jinli smiled slightly towards the stage, "Aren't the bottoms of rich people's pots black?"

She raised her head and gestured to Pang Xie, asking him to look towards the southeast. "Did you see the man and woman sitting next to actress Xu Qian?"

Pang Xie followed Su Jinli's instructions and looked over. "Xu... Oh, I see it. Is that the tall and handsome man and the woman in the pink dress?"

"Yes." Su Jinli looked at the man and woman across from her with a proud look. "The woman is the daughter of a small or medium-sized business owner, considered the daughter of a wealthy family. The man is her first love. They were high school classmates, from school uniforms to wedding dresses, and are about to get married."

Pang Xie's eyes flickered, "How enviable."

"This woman's fate also took a turn after marriage," Su Jinli continued. "The woman's parents were very optimistic about the man, and they gradually trained him from an unknown son-in-law with no family background to a potential successor to the company. However, seven years after the marriage, the man grew tired of her and started having an affair with his personal secretary."

Hearing this, Pang Xie inhaled excitedly, staring at Su Jinli with wide eyes, then looking at the affectionate couple in the distance, "Ah? Miss Su...how did you know?"

Su Jinli ignored Pang Xie's question and continued, "The man and his secretary had an affair, and then they teamed up to steal the company's funds, leaving only an empty shell of the company before fleeing overseas. The woman searched for him for years, appealed everywhere but to no avail, and became mentally ill."

"..." Pang Xie was completely shocked!

"No, Miss Su," Pang Xie shook his head vigorously, "Aren't they still married? How do you know all this?"

Su Jinli retracted her gaze and glanced at Pang Xie, then said calmly, "I made it up. You should know that I'm a melodramatic drama writer."

In fact, these plots are the contents of the original novel that emerged in Su Jinli's mind. As the original supporting characters, they are described in many CP lines.

Pang Xie sighed deeply, "So you made it up. If it's true, it would make it impossible to believe in love..."

She is still at the age where she believes in love.

Su Jinli looked up and saw another pair of lovers passing by. The girl was tall and beautiful, and the man was tall and mighty. They looked like a good match.

Pang Xie observed Su Jinli's gaze and asked, "Miss Su, do you know this couple?"

"The woman comes from a wealthy family and is a typical rich girl. The man is her personal bodyguard who has followed her for many years." Su Jinli said coldly.

"Bodyguard?" Pang Xie asked in a strangled voice, "Are you acting in an idol drama?"

Su Jinli sat proudly, her eyes looking towards the stage. At this moment, she seemed like a fortune teller, and nervously recounted the story of the couple just now.

"At first, the girl's family strongly opposed her marriage to the bodyguard, but later, under her threat of suicide, they agreed. The marriage lasted ten years, and they had a son and a daughter. To outsiders, it seemed quite happy. However, even the daughter of a wealthy family with a noble background could not handle the complex relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She often clashed with her mother-in-law over the children's education, and over time, her relationship with her husband became distant and cold."

What woman doesn't love to hear gossip and gossip? Pang Xie's ears pricked up, her eyes wide open, expecting Su Jinli to continue telling stories, even if they were made up. She silently said to herself: I'm a local dog, I love to hear them.

"Ten years after their marriage, the man filed for divorce and, citing the woman's post-marriage oppression, verbal abuse, and physical violence, requested compensation from the court for emotional damages, child custody, and tens of billions in compensation..."

"Hundreds of billions!" Pang Xie took a deep breath. "That's a lot."

"Yes, that's what marriage is. If someone gains, someone else loses." Su Jinli glanced at Pang Xie, who had an innocent face. "It's just like a business."

"And then?" Pang Xie was fascinated. "Did you get the 10 billion in compensation?"

Su Jinli continued, "After more than three years of bitter divorce proceedings, the woman ultimately lost the case and was denied custody of their children. She also had to pay the man over 10 billion yuan in compensation. A year after the divorce, the man used the 10 billion yuan to start his own business, became chairman, and married a woman 20 years his junior. People nicknamed him the 'Billionaire Groom' behind his back."

"Wow—" Pang Xie hugged his cheeks and exclaimed, "How exciting, so bloody!"

This was clearly a story Su Jinli made up on the spot, but why did it feel so immersive, as if it had really happened...

Pang Xie couldn't help but admire Su Jinli's ability to tell stories.

"Then isn't there a marriage like yours and Li Yanchen's, where both parties come from wealthy families and it's a strong union?"

Su Jinli asked Pang Xie to look at the man and woman about thirty meters away from them.

"They're an example of two equally matched families joining forces," Su Jinli said. "Initially, they married for the sake of an alliance, following the arrangements of their parents. Afterward, they went their separate ways until a business dispute erupted between the two families. It took only a few years for them to go from a strong alliance to a mutually destructive situation."

"Huh?" Pang Xie sighed in disappointment. "So if that's what you mean, no married couple is happy?"

"Of course not." Su Jinli calmed down. "A happy marriage is a matter of probability, but the probability is low."

The lights in the venue dimmed, elegant music flowed slowly, and people sat in their seats ready to watch the show.

Before the show began, Pang Xie asked another question, "Ms. Su, you just said that marriage is a gamble. What is the stakes?"

"What's at stake is your own physical and mental health, your own feelings and emotions. In a marriage, you must hold on to these things and not leave them all to your partner," Su Jinli said, looking at the stage. "You must love yourself before you love others."

Pang Xie nodded, not quite understanding, "So that's how it is..."

Su Jinli suddenly turned her head and glanced at Pang Xie, "Are you in love?"

Pang Xie's cheeks suddenly felt hot. Su Jinli was really smart.

"That's normal. 25 is the right age for love." Su Jinli smiled proudly and looked at the stage. "Only when you're 40 will you gradually see the truth about love."

Pang Xie looked confused, "Aren't you only 25 years old?"

Why are all the stories about people who are forty years old?
