All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

The waiter escorted the two upstairs, while he remained in the elevator.

The rest of the journey should be walked together by Lilith and Jiang Tang.

Their hands remained clasped tightly as they arrived at the door of the luxury suite.

Jiang Tang took a deep breath, just as he was about to knock on the door.

With a "click," the door in front of them was pulled open by itself from the outside in.

Jiang Tang's eyes were instantly filled with the perfect colors of pure gold and snow white.

The next moment, everything went black before his eyes, a rich milky aroma filled his nostrils, and then... he knew nothing more.

All I could hear was Lilith's furious voice beside me.

"Mother! Darling is mine!"

"mine!!"

This was Jiang Tang's first meeting with Lilith's mother.

As Lilith said, her mother was indeed a naive and innocent woman who had absolutely no defenses against a guy like him.

He suddenly realized that all the anxiety he had felt for so long had been completely wasted...

Five minutes later, Jiang Tang finally recovered from the suffocating sensation of the "facial cleanser," but the milky scent, which was unusually similar to, and even more intense than, that of Lilith, still lingered in his mind and could not be dispelled for a long time.

"...Hello, Auntie."

Jiang Tang hesitated to look at his wife.

She has long golden hair and snow-white skin almost identical to Lilith's, and her blue eyes are gentle and kind. Lilith's full breasts are also inherited from her mother.

When the two stand together, it's hard not to describe them as "as if they were made from the same mold".

However, upon closer inspection, there are differences between the two. Lilith's mother has a mature charm in her eyes and brows, and her skin shows signs of skincare.

Looking at Lilith, her face was full of youthful collagen. Although she had stayed up all night, her complexion was great, all thanks to the nourishment of love.

"Don't call me 'Auntie,' that's too formal. Just call me 'Mom'!"

To be honest, even now, when Jiang Tang sees a blond, blue-eyed foreigner speaking fluent Mandarin, with a tone no different from that of a normal Chinese aunt, he still feels a strong sense of unease.

Despite the awkwardness, Jiang Tang felt a warmth in his heart after hearing those words.

"Mom!" Lilith called out, her voice filled with embarrassment. She wondered to herself, who was really giving away the money for nothing?

It seems like her mother is even more generous than her. At least she should act like an elder!

Lilith hadn't seen her mother for quite some time, probably two or three years, because her mother and father had been traveling around the world during that time.

Opening the foreign version of WeChat Moments, I see my mother's travel updates almost every day, which makes me incredibly envious.

I originally thought that my mother would become more mature as she traveled the world and gained more experience, but now it seems that she has regressed compared to the mother I remember!

"Ah, Lilith, I almost forgot you were here if you didn't say anything."

From the moment she arrived, Lilith's mother only had eyes for Jiang Tang, her son-in-law, whom she found perfectly satisfactory, while her own daughter was completely ignored.

Lilith's mentality was on the verge of exploding.

But deep down, Jiang Tang was actually quite happy.

"Jiang Tang, it must have been hard on you to stay with my daughter. My name is Sally, my Chinese name is Ye Lisha~"

"...Hello, Aunt Ye."

Jiang Tang paused for a moment after hearing Lilith's mother's name, and finally chose to call her by the more approachable Chinese name.

Lilith's lips twitched. Her feelings were probably like being next to a mother who "subconsciously exposes your shortcomings to outsiders all the time"—that kind of embarrassment, especially the embarrassment of being betrayed by the closest person!

"Auntie, this is a gift that Shixue and I prepared for you. It's just a small token of our appreciation."

"A gift?" Sally's curiosity was evident, her eyes sparkling with a childlike anticipation.

"Shixue...is that your maid? She's a good girl too~"

Lilith's feelings were complicated at this moment, because her mother was exactly the kind of wife who would criticize her own children but praise other people's children.

Hearing such praise, Jiang Tang felt happy for Shi Xue.

"Thank you auntie."

He handed over the gifts he was carrying: a scarf prepared by Shi Xue, and a jade sachet that he and Lilith had carefully selected in the folk street that afternoon, saying that her mother would like such a little trinket.

Although sachets are valuable, that's for ordinary people; what's more important is the symbolism they carry.

The ancients said in the Book of Rites, "When a son serves his parents, he should wear a sachet on his left and right sides." This means that when young people visit their parents and elders, they should wear a woven sachet called "jinying" to show their respect.

Jiang Tang and Lilith each wore one, and then gave an extra one as a gift to Lilith's mother.

Sally seemed to really like the two gifts; if it weren't for the fact that her outfit was rather inappropriate, she would probably have worn the scarf and sachet directly.

To express her gratitude to Jiang Tang, she wanted to hug the handsome Jiang Tang again, but her daughter Lilith firmly blocked her between the two.

"My daughter is so stingy."

“Who can be generous in something like this?” Lilith gritted her teeth, her expression showing dissatisfaction.

"Oh well, never mind." Aunt Sally's expression seemed to say, "Having a daughter like this is such a headache for me."

But in reality, it's Lilith who's having the biggest headache right now.

As for Jiang Tang, he gradually relaxed under Aunt Sally's lively performance.

Sally's gentle gaze returned to Jiang Tang.

"Jiang Tang, Lilith, thank you for your gifts, but the people who should really offer blessings and gifts are us elders."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tang was somewhat surprised, but his expression became serious, and he stood up straight respectfully.

“Lilith, your father and I have decided to give you and Jiang Tang your favorite Windsor Castle, with permanent ownership, and the more than one thousand households in the surrounding area will also be yours.”

Even Lilith's eyes widened in disbelief when she heard this.

Jiang Tang's mouth gaped open slightly. Windsor Castle? It shouldn't be... the Windsor Castle he was thinking of, right?

That's the temporary residence of the British monarch.

Seemingly noticing Jiang Tang's confusion, Sally smiled and explained.

"Not Elizabeth's, that's just a copy at best. What we have is the real deal, on a piece of land that isn't even marked on a world map."

"Jiang Tang, with the imperial decree from our family, you can even establish a country there with my daughter without any problem. You can make your own laws and marry as many wives as you want, as long as my lovely daughter isn't lonely."

Aunt Sally's revelations are truly explosive.

And is it really true that this lawless land, with its own nation-building program, is really true?!

Are you in the mood to be a son-in-law? The kind where the mother-in-law gives you a whole country as a gift.

286 is determined to win.

Seeing that Lilith and Jiang Tang were completely stunned, Sally gave a gentle smile with an expression that said, "Young people just haven't seen much of the world."

At the same time, she couldn't help but recall the grand occasion when her brother came to marry her.

That's right, Lilith's parents are actually in the orthopedics department, making them siblings in the true sense.

Otherwise, they could not have produced such an outstanding pure-blooded descendant as Lilith.

The pursuit of pure bloodlines comes with enormous risks, but also enormous rewards.

Jiang Tang had some suspicions about this, because he thought that Lilith's family must value bloodlines very much, which made it extremely difficult for them to accept intermarriage with people of other bloodlines, so the only remaining path was internal integration.

He didn't dare to ask Lilith for confirmation.

Moreover, even a family like that is willing to set aside its pride for the sake of Jiang Tang's genes...

They fully acknowledged Jiang Tang's superiority and were willing to send their best descendant, Lilith, to marry him.

Perhaps they've realized that the old path is no longer viable.

I wonder if Lilith's lack of siblings is related to this reason.

Aunt Sally looks quite young and doesn't seem to have any financial burdens to raise children, yet she has no other children, which makes it hard not to speculate.

In fact, Jiang Tang's guess was correct. When Sally gave birth to Lilith, the situation was very dangerous, although she ultimately survived and Lilith's health was preserved.

However, it inevitably caused permanent damage to Sally's body, making her unable to conceive new life.

In Sally's otherwise smooth-sailing life, pampered by the world and her family, this must have been the biggest setback she had ever experienced.

However, Sally is optimistic by nature, and if she can't have other children, she'll have to raise Lilith well.

When the time comes, I'll let Lilith give birth to ten or eight kids for me to play with!

Lilith: Are you really my mother?! ?? You think it's a sow giving birth?!

"This... isn't it a bit too dreamy? I mean... it doesn't need to be so generous. Even without material conditions, my relationship with Lilith will still remain unchanged."

Jiang Tang raised his head, his words subtly implying that he wanted to refuse the generous gift.

Upon hearing this, Lilith's gaze towards Jiang Tang softened with tenderness and affection.

Even Sally looked at Jiang Tang and grew to like him more and more.

“Just accept what we’re giving you. We’re family, so there’s no need for formalities.”

"..." Jiang Tang scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

He truly hadn't expected to be accepted so easily; Aunt Sally even referred to him as "family."

"And what's more, after you get married, we'll prepare a grand wedding for you and a generous dowry for Lilith~"

Lilith blushed and lowered her head, equally looking forward to the future her mother envisioned.

Jiang Tang seemed somewhat surprised as well. He actually... he actually thought about marriage?

Moreover, if we're talking about dowry, wouldn't we have to prepare an exorbitant bride price?

Although Lilith hadn't discussed this matter with Jiang Tang, she had actually thought about it privately.

Because Lilith was also in China, she naturally received all sorts of miscellaneous information. She was extremely puzzled by the many examples of couples breaking up online because of dowry issues.

If you truly love someone... why break up over money?
