To protect her billion-dollar fortune, the newly widowed Su Jin is forced to get married again.
After the wedding, the two agreed not to interfere with each other and not to affect each other...
Later, Xu's father often took Xu Jingzhi to buy pancakes from Song Leilei's parents' stall. Over time, the two families became very familiar with each other. Xu's father even suggested arranging a marriage between the two children, but this was strongly opposed by Song Leilei's father.
The couple were honest people who always respected the Xu family and never thought about marrying into a higher social class. Xu's father also noticed their doubts.
Mr. Xu jokingly said that his family had fallen on hard times, and this house was now an old house; they were just ordinary people.
This statement was highly controversial, but Leilei's honest parents still believed it. However, after discussing it, both sides realized that the two children were just good friends when they were young, and it was hard to say what would happen when they grew up. Leilei's parents did not want to restrict their children's marriage, so they still did not agree.
However, the Xu family continued to act like ordinary people, and Xu Jingzhi gradually got used to his father's low profile.
......
After reminiscing about their past interactions, Xu Jingzhi rummaged around on his body and finally pulled out a bank card from his shirt pocket, casually slapping it on the table.
"This is all the money I've earned since I started working. It's not much, but it's all here."
Xu Jingzhi took out another card and slapped it on the table. "This is a card my dad gave me. It's for you."
Song Leilei: "??"
She knew that Xu Jingzhi would get drunk after drinking so much, but she didn't expect him to be so generous and magnanimous today, even giving her his entire fortune while drunk.
But she wasn't the kind of person who would take advantage of someone's misfortune for money.
Song Leilei put the two cards together and put them back into Xu Jingzhi's pocket.
She got up, grabbed a towel, wet it, wrung it out, and threw it directly on his face, leaving only his nose exposed for breathing.
"Wake up."
Song Leilei took Xu Jingzhi's room key, left him in her room, and then went to sleep in Xu Jingzhi's room herself.
Xu Jingzhi's face was covered with a towel, and in less than two minutes, he began to snore loudly.
He can drink a few more glasses and not black out, but he just gets sleepy. When he woke up the next day, he felt very frustrated when he thought about the few words he hadn't said to Leilei.
He had planned to give away all his wealth and then confess his feelings, but he was too tired and fell asleep.
Xu Jingzhi looked at the empty room, and there was no sign of Song Leilei. But he knew Song Leilei. He touched the missing room card on his body and immediately realized that she had switched rooms with him.
Xu Jingzhi twisted his sore neck and once again posted a terrifying statement in the group.
[Many years later]: How can I quickly get someone? Legally, even if it's a bit excessive.
【This young master crushes five dogs on the other side】: That's too good, highly efficient.
[The Most Handsome Man in the City]: Learn from CEO romance novels. I can recommend a few to you. Learn from the male protagonists in them, and within a week, the woman you like will definitely fall for you!
【Young Master Beats Up Five Dogs】: My girlfriend watches this every day and complains to me that even dogs wouldn't want a man like this. Be careful what you learn, Brother Xu.
[The Origin of the Universe]: What a terrible idea! Don't follow it. If you ask me, to take it a step further, talk to someone you like about the origin of the universe, give them a good science lesson, and make them think you're incredibly knowledgeable.
Many years later; send me some CEO romance novels to look at.
Regardless of what they said, Xu Jingzhi received a bunch of documents about domineering CEO novels, printed them out, looked at them one by one, and even took notes and highlighted the key points.
He had never been this serious about his studies before.
In the days that followed, Song Leilei rarely saw Xu Jingzhi appear.
She also remembered Xu Jingzhi's punishment and thought he had been hiding away and acting strangely lately.
Two months later, filming wrapped up and Su Jin returned to her parents' home.
Seeing that her daughter rarely came home, Mrs. Su personally cooked many of her daughter's favorite dishes.
The maid brought the food to the table, and the family enjoyed a harmonious lunch together.
After dinner, the mother and daughter sat on the sofa watching TV.
"Do you have anything else to do next?" Mrs. Su asked with concern.
No. I'd like to take a break recently.
"Oh, then I'll go back to the Zheng family home with you later to visit. It's been a long time since I've seen my in-laws."
Madam Su did it on purpose; she wanted to take Su Jin back to show He Ru what she was capable of.
During Su Jin's filming days, Na Heru was frequently seen coming and going from the Zheng family home. This month, she and Zheng Lin were also seen together at various events. All of this was told to her by a maid when she went to the Zheng family home a few days ago to deliver a gift to Zheng Youguo.
Su Jin hesitated for a moment, then immediately changed her mind and said, "Then I should still have something to do, Mom. I feel that I can't slack off at work."
Madam Su grabbed a grape and pretended to throw it at her, and Su Jin instinctively dodged.
However, Mrs. Su was just trying to scare her. She bent down and peeled the grape skins, saying, "With your job, you're practically an investor yourself. I won't say anything if you insist on acting and exhausting yourself, but you should at least have some sense of marital crisis."
Su Jin hugged a cushion, lay flat on the sofa like a salted fish, and said, "I have no sense of crisis."
“You have to go even if you don’t want to. Do you know how often He Ru and Zheng Lin are seen together? He’s your husband, and you’re not divorced yet. Why don’t you just get a divorce sooner? I get angry just looking at you two like this.”
“What reason is there to go?” Su Jin’s fighting spirit ignited by one percent. Her mother was right; this situation was worse than divorce, but she didn’t want a divorce now.
She had wanted a divorce before, so she could tolerate all of Zheng Lin's unreasonable behavior.
But now that she wants to maintain the marriage, she has to go and make her stance clear.
We can't let He Ru ride on her head.
Su Jin suddenly sat up like a carp leaping out of the water, startling Madam Su.
Su Jin: "Mom, let's go now."
"That's more like it." Madam Su was pleased and instructed the maid to prepare the gifts, which would be sent over later.
An hour later, Su Jin and Madam Su appeared at the Zheng family home. Old Chairman Su knew what they were there for, so he got out of the car halfway there and went to play golf with a friend. He didn't want to get involved in the women's struggle, nor could he just stand by and watch.
Mr. Su has been married for over ten years and is terrified of such situations. I doubt many men are unafraid, even if the matter has nothing to do with him.
Su Jin arrived at just the right time, because as soon as she stepped onto the land of the Zheng family manor, a BMW stopped outside the manor, and He Ru got out.
Su Jin turned around and looked at He Ru.
At this moment, there was a hint of hostility in each other's eyes, especially He Ru, who not only had hostility but also a hint of hatred.
Previously, her godmother He Rong had repeatedly advised her to give up on Zheng Lin and choose other talented young men.
Now, He Ru blames all of this on Su Jin.
Su Jin glanced at her for only a second, then acted as if she hadn't seen her at all, and slowly walked in, arm in arm with Madam Su.
