It's hard to quit, but it's the perfect marriage!

It's only been a short time since I last saw Yu Qingge, but she has lost so much weight.

That capable and dashing face no longer held any of its former sharpness.

He Mianxin helped her up, and even from a distance of more than ten meters, Zhu Xi could tell that they were coming for her.

Perhaps, it's not just her.

There's also Lezhishi.

Zhou Yinghuai squeezed her clenched fist, and the two looked into each other's eyes. Zhu Xi smiled faintly.

"Honey, what should we do?" She raised an eyebrow, pulling her hand away from Zhou Yinghuai's. "Someone's come looking for a fight."

Zhou Yinghuai: "What can we do? Make a scene."

Lezhi followed Zhu Xi's gaze and his expression changed.

I visited this Ms. Yu Qingge at the hospital a few days ago.

What he said was infuriating.

The terms offered are even more tempting.

"Lezhishi," Zhu Xi called out to her, "Are you hiding something from me?"

"I've been hiding many things from you. Which one are you asking about?"

Zhu Xi: "Lezhishi, I'm not joking!!!"

"Last week, I spat in your cup. The week before that, I ate the strawberry cake from your fridge!"

Zhu Xi: "I am happy to know the times!"

Lezhi looked back again; her passport was almost deformed from being squeezed.

Zhu Xi stepped forward. "That's your mother-in-law."

Lezhi nodded and smiled carefree, "Really? If you hadn't said so, I would have thought it was my older sister."

"That's your older sister next to you, your stepsister!"

"I know that lady." Le Zhishi put his passport into the bag hanging on his shoulder. In the instant he lowered his eyes, the sarcasm in his eyes was seen by Zhu Xi and his wife.

Zhu Xi frowned, her already cold eyes growing even colder.

How reliable is this man in the sweltering summer?

"Yu Qingge came looking for you, didn't she?" Zhu Xi asked anxiously, grabbing Le Zhishi's bag and pulling her behind her before the two affectionate mother and daughter could reach them. "When?"

Lezhi zipped up his jacket and said slowly, "The day you fought an eight-hour surgery."

She looked up and saw He Mianxin and her daughter almost in front of her. "Zhu Xi, did your stepsister not watch the recent short dramas? The plot is so old-fashioned. What era are we living in? They're still giving out checks."

"You didn't want it?"

"Of course." Lezhi tossed the end of his hair. "That was exactly what I said at the time."

Zhu Xi listened attentively.

Zhou Yinghuai had already stepped forward, blocking He Mianxin and the others.

The meaning is clear: if his wife doesn't agree, they won't get to Lezhi.

Zhu Xi sent Zhou Yinghuai a reward kiss from afar, and Zhou Yinghuai smiled, caught it in his hand, and placed it on his heart.

The two acted as if no one else was around and openly expressed their love, completely ignoring He Mianxin's livid face.

As someone with experience, He Mianxin could tell at a glance that the two's marriage was no longer a fleeting affair, but had become substantial.

This kind of tender, reluctant gaze only appears after they have shared intimate moments.

"Mrs. Yu, please wait." Zhou Yinghuai was indeed very polite.

Zhu Xi pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, and said seriously, "Lezhishi, there are some things I don't know if it's appropriate to say now."

"Your parents' side," she began, then hesitated, afraid of offending the elders of the Le family.

Instead, she changed her approach directly, saying, "I don't want my brother to be deprived of his spousal rights by your parents before he even enters your family. That's unfair to my brother."

After all, the troublemakers weren't offering congratulations, much less wishing someone well.

It was He Mianxin, who insisted on being the biological mother of the two siblings who were not close to each other.

"Even if the Yu family is powerful, they still have the Zhou family above them!" Zhu Xi sneered. "And coincidentally, the entire Zhou family is behind me!"

"So, you absolutely mustn't make things difficult for my brother, and let him in smoothly! Understand?"

Lezhi feigned sudden realization, "So, the rumors that you and your siblings are unloved by your father and mother are true?"

Zhu Xi said sullenly, "This rumor isn't just nonsense."

"What about the others?"

"Take the rest as a joke."

"Oh, I guess I was just being a fool!" Le Zhishi rubbed his chin, grinning. "Even if Yu Qingge gave me more money than I could spend in ten lifetimes, I still couldn't bear to give her the congratulations!"

Zhu Xi: "?"

"Not only was I unwilling to give it to her, I also told her to give up as soon as possible. Then, she threatened me with the money my nouveau riche father valued most. Honestly, Zhu Xi, how did you, such a straight little seedling, grow from that pile of rotten, black-hearted vegetables?"

As she spoke, Lezhi snorted, "It's true that I was raised on fear. I understand that my family isn't as wealthy as the Yu family. Our business has been doing quite poorly lately, and I've heard my dad secretly smoking and sighing at night several times."

"But," she paused, hugging Zhu Xi tightly, "my sister, I'm more lustful than greedy, and your brother is exactly the embodiment of my lust."

She patted Zhu Xi on the back to reassure her, "Just so you know, your brother is pursuing me!"

"My relationship with Zhu He is like your relationship with Zhou Yinghuai; no one can break us up. Not even my own parents can, and your own mother would be in trouble too."

Le Zhishi took Zhu Xi's arm and walked a few steps forward. Zhou Yinghuai consciously stepped aside to make way for them.

Le Zhi sighed, speaking at a measured pace, "Miss Yu is indeed incredibly resourceful. I changed my flight at the last minute, and you still managed to catch me."

"It's just unfortunate that you're giving me the entire Yu family today. I'll say the same thing as before: you like it, I congratulate you, and I like it too. But he loves me, not you."

Yu Qingge coughed lightly, and a blush quickly appeared on her pale face.

He was so excited that he couldn't stop coughing.

Lezhi was also polite and didn't say anything more, patiently waiting for her to finish coughing.

He Mianxin patted Yu Qingge's back, "Xixi, you're protecting such a rude and ill-mannered woman? Does she even deserve your brother?"

Zhu Xi: "I..."

Lezhi pressed her hand down and shook her head slightly, "Sister-in-law, come here!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingge, who had just stopped coughing, started coughing again.

Lezhi glanced at her, then looked at He Mianxin, "Auntie, whether I deserve your congratulations is not up to you."

"Of course, your dearest eldest daughter can do everything she can to bankrupt my family."

As Lezhi spoke, he turned to look at Zhu Xi, "Want to know what I said that day?"

Zhu Xi shook her head, looking completely bewildered.

"So handsome!" Lezhi smiled confidently. "I guarantee you'll give me a big thumbs up!"

Zhu Xi: "Really? If it's really that amazing, then I can add two more hands."

She glanced to the side, and Zhou Yinghuai immediately cooperated by shaking his own.

From then on, the three of them formed a group.

Lezhi said quietly, "The year my parents suddenly became rich, they saved enough money for me to live on for the rest of my life. They learned from the rich and bought me insurance, investments, funds, real estate, and so on. Not only that, that year my New Year's money was gold. The amount was enough to build a brick wall."

"So, you guys can do whatever you want. My dad said he loves money, but he loves me even more. Even without money, he can still marry a top student—that'll be something for him to brag about!"

"So, go ahead and cause trouble, kill me if you dare!"

Yu Qingge's coughing stopped.

This was the first time Zhu Xi had seen hatred on her face.

Absolutely, even more insanely hateful than Yu Qinghuan.

"Then I'll kill Zhu He!" she roared, her withered eyes turning terrifying. "Go ahead and brag about your ashes!"

Zhou Yinghuai said coldly, "Then you can try."
