Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Chapter 168
Jasmine pursed her lips. “He‘s a little ugly. I‘m scared that my baby will turn out hideous if I marry an ugly
man. Your situation is the best. Since you and your husbands have the looks, your baby will turn out
beautiful.”
She would rather marry a motivated wage earner like her best friend. So what if Mr. York was not born
with a silver spoon? He worked hard to get to a senior white–collar position at York Corporation.
Anyone who could get into the York Corporation‘s headquarters was an elite among elites.
Serenity replied after a brief pause , “You should spend less time on your chick lits. I think you read too

“The CEO of York Corporation is young, but he took over the family business that has been around for
years. How can other men compete with a man who was born with a silver spoon? I‘m sure you know
meeting a CEO like Mr. York is impossible, let alone chasing him.”
Jasmine opened her mouth to justify her thoughts, but no words escaped her lips.

Nevertheless , Jasmine was not trying to bag some big – shot CEO. She did not have a thing for that

innocent date.”
Jasmine pleaded, “Seren, just this once. I promise. It‘s just this once. Think about the food!”
“Our lunch from the Wiltspoon Hotel today was delicious.”

Serenity toughened herself up against her best friend‘s resentful eyes as she refused to accompany
Jasmine to another event.
Since Zachary would not be home early due to a business engagement, Serenity stayed at the shop and
told Jasmine to get off work early. Unable to persuade her best friend, Jasmine took her purse and went
home.
As Serenity was alone at the shop with nothing much to do, she called her sister and found out that her
brother–in –law still had not come home. Serenity sighed to herself. It was likely her sister‘s marriage
would not last long. It was not that she wanted Liberty and Hank back together, but Serenity felt bad for

Sonny was only two years old and had always been in Liberty‘s care. Her sister would have a higher
chance of winning custody if she had a source of income.
