"What happened?" Song Qiaoqiao peeked over and then her eyes widened and her mouth gaped open. "Huh?"

"What's wrong with you?" Le Yao rolled her eyes at Song Qiaoqiao, then leaned over and laughed. "Qian Haiyi is very sensible. He's got his lobster and beef sorted out for tomorrow."

Qian Haiyi directly transferred 200,000 yuan to Hong Xia.

"So much money, I can't..."

“You can,” Qian Meiqi said, grabbing Hong Xia’s hand as she tried to make a phone call. “It’s only natural for a man to spend money on a woman.”

“But we’re not married yet.” Hongxia shook her head, then pinched Qian Meiqi’s cheek. “Future sister-in-law, shouldn’t you be angry?”

“I’m different from other sisters-in-law; I’m on the sister-in-law’s side.” Qian Meiqi winked at Hong Xia. “And, I’ll let you in on this: once you and Qian Haiyi get your marriage certificate, my parents have decided to hand over control of my family company to you. So, from now on, you’ll be giving me my allowance…”

Hongxia glanced at everyone somewhat nervously.

“Hongxia, ever since you started dating Qian Haiyi, money has become an unavoidable issue.” Le Yao reached out and patted Hongxia’s shoulder. “It’s unavoidable given your background and his background, so there’s nothing to be ashamed of.” She paused for a moment, then added, “Actually, I understand your feelings very well, because I was in the same boat back then.”

Hong Xia looked at Le Yao, and finally laughed, "Fine, I was being dramatic." Then she waved her phone, "My boyfriend's treating, order whatever you want, 200,000... I reckon that'll be enough to make a few people choke..."

"Go to hell." Le Yao reached out and tickled Hong Xia's armpit.

Everyone started laughing and joking.

The next day, everyone met early in the morning, had dim sum, strolled around the streets all morning, and then had a big meal together at noon. In the afternoon, Qiao Qiao flew back to the capital, Hong Xia flew to Shanghai to meet Qian Haiyi, Song Qiaoqiao went to find Wu Ya, and Wang Xia was called away by Wen Yu. In the end, only Le Yao and Qian Meiqi were left.

The two of them found a coffee shop to chat.

"Sister Lan, where is your Lord?"

“He’s been quite busy these past few days.” Le Yao took a sip of coffee. It seemed that Liao Hu was having some trouble. He’d been leaving early and returning late these days, sometimes even coming back in the middle of the night. It must be too tiring for him. “You should find a boyfriend too.”

“Right? I think so too, but…” Qian Meiqi sighed, stirring her coffee with a small spoon. “I haven’t met the right person.” She paused for a moment. “Actually, the key thing is that most of the people who pursue me are after my status. You know, I used to be the big sister, there weren’t many people in the whole school who weren’t afraid of me, right? Although I’ve reformed in the last two years, my family is rich, and my uncle is powerful, so I haven’t really felt any sincerity from them.”

Le Yao scratched her nose: "How about I introduce you to someone? Someone from a similar social class, then you won't have all the troubles you're talking about."

"Sure," Qian Meiqi's eyes lit up. "Who are you going to introduce me to?"

"Can't you be a little more reserved?" Le Yao rolled her eyes.

"What's there to be shy about?" Qian Meiqi frowned. "Marriage is a necessity for human development. I'm not having a puppy love, nor am I breaking up someone's legal family. What do I have to be shy about? Alright, stop with the formalities and just tell me, do I know the person you're introducing me to?"
