Yu Meiren and Cupid remained silent.

Ling Ziqian continued nervously, "People live in this world, and it all comes down to money. If I don't have any grand ambitions and just want to make money, it's a bit unreasonable to leave my hometown. I can make money by staying at home and running the cake shop, and I can be with my family. So, um..."

Upon hearing Ling Ziqian's explanation, Yu Meiren and Cupid exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

Ling Ziqian was extremely embarrassed, not knowing what they were laughing at.

Yu Meiren reached out and gently stroked Ling Ziqian's cheek. "I really didn't know before that I was so important to my little brother."

Ling Ziqian blushed slightly, "What do you mean by important or not? You're family!"

"What about me? What about me!" Cupid-chan shouted restlessly from the side.

“…Cupid-chan, you…” Ling Ziqian stared at Cupid-chan, somewhat dumbfounded. What secrets did this girl hold? She came from the second dimension, and what would her future hold? Ling Ziqian had no idea!

Not receiving a reply from Ling Ziqian, Cupid immediately pouted, her big eyes brimming with tears; she felt wronged.

"Idiot, how could you forget Xiao Ai!" Yu Meiren tapped Ling Ziqian on the head.

"Xiao Ai..." Ling Ziqian called the guy's name softly, a smile appearing on his face. "You are also a very, very important member of my family, no matter what the future holds, you always will be!"

"Mmm!" Cupid-chan liked hearing these words, and she smiled through her tears, her smile was very sweet.

“Then!” Yu Meiren said with a smile, “Little brother, you should start searching for your future with all your heart. If you search the whole world and find that the thing you want to do most is to come back and keep the cake shop, then come back. Our family will be together forever!”

Ling Ziqian took a deep breath and nodded heavily. A surge of heroic spirit suddenly rose in his heart!

Yu Meiren, who was sitting to the side, suddenly kissed Ling Ziqian on the cheek.

She chuckled, "Let me give you some encouragement, and Xiao Ai, you should encourage your brother too!"

Cupid blushed furiously. She got up and knelt on the sofa so that she could reach Ling Ziqian's cheek.

"This is encouragement. I'll work hard in the future."

"Ok!"

Cupid's cheeks were flushed, making her incredibly cute.

She pouted her pink lips and gently kissed Ling Ziqian's cheek.

At that moment, Ling Ziqian felt like he owned the whole world!

But soon, Yu Meiren pulled him back to reality, "Let's talk about love!"

Ling Ziqian felt a chill run down his spine. He wanted to leave. "I should go take a shower. I have to go to the company tomorrow."

"It's not even eight o'clock yet, it's still early!"

"I'm trying to run away!"

Yu Meiren and Cupid Sauce clung tightly to Ling Ziqian's arm again to prevent him from escaping.

"Tell me honestly, which girl do you like?" Yu Meiren stared intently at Ling Ziqian, wanting to know the answer.

"..." How could Ling Ziqian possibly answer such a question!

Cupid chuckled beside her; she knew a lot about Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian looked at Cupid with concern, worried that the guy might have leaked some of his secrets.

“Although I just said I hoped Mingxi would be my daughter-in-law, I also think highly of Xiaorong.” Yu Meiren looked at Ling Ziqian seriously. “You and Xiaorong have been together for so many years, your relationship can almost be called familial affection, right? Is there romantic love?”

Ling Ziqian was speechless, his face full of black lines.

"The reason you and Mingxi became sworn siblings was to prevent certain things from happening in such a clumsy way, right? What's going on between you and Qiaoyan? That girl keeps calling you 'Master, Master' and stuff like that. I can tell she likes you, but her feelings are very innocent. And Xuelan, I'm a little worried that she might be the one to seduce you..."

Yu Meiren analyzed Ling Ziqian's relationships with various girls.

Cupid chuckled beside her without saying anything, which relieved Ling Ziqian.

After thinking for a long time and making a lot of guesses, Yu Meiren still couldn't figure out the relationships between Ling Ziqian and the various girls.

"In short, no matter what, you have to be proactive."

"Well, I see."

After that, Yu Meiren didn't say anything more.

After watching TV together for a while, she lazily stood up, intending to take a shower.

She wanted to shower with Cupid, but Cupid refused, so she had to go into the bathroom alone, feeling dejected.

The reason Cupid stayed was that she had something to say to Ling Ziqian.

"Aren't you very grateful to me?" Cupid-chan smiled smugly at Ling Ziqian.

"Thank you so much, Miss!" Ling Ziqian thanked Cupid. Cupid had the chance to tell her about Ling Ziqian and Dou Xiaorong kissing earlier, but she didn't.

If she tells me, I reckon Yu Meiren will go to Dou Xiaorong's house tomorrow to discuss Ling Ziqian and Dou Xiaorong's engagement.

"Since you're thanking me, then grant me one request!"

"..."

Ling Ziqian dared not nod. (The official in charge of historical records.)

Cupid was annoyed. She pouted and said, "I wouldn't hurt you. Beauty Sister told you to take the initiative. I'm just teaching you how to take the initiative!"

"Oh." Ling Ziqian said somewhat awkwardly, "Tell me about it."

“I know what kind of person you are, little brother. You can’t take the initiative right away, so why don’t you take the initiative to find them first!”

"Huh?" Ling Ziqian was a little confused.

Cupid continued angrily, "Little brother, you're not very manly. They're always the ones who come to you, and you never take the initiative to reach out to them. Like now, Xiao Rong has to come all the way from that villa, and Ming Xi comes here every day from home. Sometimes Qiao Yan even comes over in the middle of the night."

"Have you ever taken the initiative to contact them even once?"

"No, there really isn't one," Ling Ziqian said with an awkward smile.

"That's why I'm saying this!" Cupid smiled and reached out to pat Ling Ziqian's head. "You should take the initiative to go find them!"

"Oh." Ling Ziqian nodded.

Cupid jumped off the sofa with satisfaction and ran towards the bathroom, shouting that she wanted to take a shower too. She pushed open the door and rushed into the bathroom without even closing it, which startled Yu Meiren into screaming.

That guy has become lively and unruly.

Ling Ziqian couldn't help but smile.

The ambiguous value on the silver watch was still only 1 point, but this night was quite fruitful.

Chapter 207 Do whatever you want, go ahead and sue!

After Yu Meiren and Cupid finished their baths, Ling Ziqian also went to take a bath.

Back in his room, Ling Ziqian lay down, intending to go to sleep.

Huan Yue's voice rang out softly. "What Cupid meant by asking you to take the initiative was actually to help you develop feelings for them." (Zhen Shi Xu Ba)

Ling Ziqian nodded. How could he not know? Cupid had previously boasted that he would help speed up the process.

Ling Ziqian doesn't care what Cupid says. As long as Cupid doesn't try to set him up or curse him, he knows what to do.

Sensing Ling Ziqian's thoughts, Huan Yue chuckled. "You've got some ideas! Xiao Rong and Ming Xi are together, aren't you going to join in the fun and collect some flirtation points so things will be easier tomorrow!"

Ling Ziqian was speechless at this guy. "Let's talk about tomorrow's problems tomorrow."

Just then, her phone rang. Shen Qiaoyan had sent her a picture. It was a selfie of her, Dou Xiaorong, and Su Mingxi together.

She also sent this message: "Master, Xiao Rong and I are at Ming Xi's house. Do you want to come over? When you come, it would be best to bring some midnight snacks!"

"They've all extended invitations, it's your turn to make the first move, hehe!"

"I have things to do tomorrow, and besides, it's the middle of the night, and being with three girls doesn't feel right at all."

"You should refuse! That's why you're still a virgin even though you're eighteen!"

"..."

Without speaking to Huan Yue, Ling Ziqian quickly replied to Shen Qiaoyan's message, explaining his plans for tomorrow.

They had no idea what Ling Ziqian and Huo Mama had been talking about.

Now that they know, they are extremely surprised and clamor for Ling Ziqian to do his best.

Nothing happened that night, and the next day began.

After washing up and having breakfast, Huo Mama's secretary, who was also the secretary who delivered the jewelry yesterday and made the call to the police in the auditorium of the No. 1 Middle School the day before yesterday, drove to the cake shop early.

Yu Meiren greeted her warmly, clamoring for pastries.

Secretary Hua politely thanked Yu Meiren and gestured for Ling Ziqian to get into the car.

Ling Ziqian got into the car with a piece of bread in his mouth.

Secretary Hua drove the car to a street corner and then stopped.

She handed a briefcase to Ling Ziqian. "Yesterday I entered your information into the company system. Your status is that of an ordinary employee, someone who was transferred from another department to help out in the sales department. Your employee card and that person's information are in this briefcase."

Ling Ziqian nodded and opened the document bag.

The target was named Gao Wenhui. He had slanted eyes and looked fierce.

The materials were very basic, consisting of a few photos and a resume.

After looking at his resume, Ling Ziqian was speechless. He graduated from a prestigious university and had won various awards that seemed very prestigious.

Judging from his resume alone, Gao Wenhui is a talented person, not at all like the person that Mother Huo described as someone who is more trouble than he's worth.

“His resume is definitely fake,” Secretary Hua reminded him from the side.

"Then why did you show it to me?" Ling Ziqian was speechless.

"Some things might be true," Secretary Hua said somewhat embarrassedly.

Ling Ziqian nodded helplessly as he looked at Gao Wenhui's resume, trying to find something useful.

Secretary Hua took out a pair of non-prescription black-rimmed glasses and a makeup box.

"What's going on here..." Ling Ziqian guessed some of the situation.

"Some people in the company might know you, after all, the video of you hitting someone has appeared online. You've just joined the company and don't know anything yet, so it's better to keep a low profile."

Ling Ziqian picked up his non-prescription glasses and put them on, refusing to wear makeup.
