Qi Yao sat beside the bed when Yu Wanqiao called him, and tried to get into bed calmly and cover himself with the quilt.

The next second, Yu Wanqiao climbed up like a vine.

Qi Yao carefully protected her waist, not daring to move, and closed his eyes: "Good night."

A long time passed.

Just when Qi Yao thought Yu Wanqiao must have fallen asleep.

Yu Wanqiao whispered in his arms, "Hubby, I'm sorry. I don't know why my sister-in-law suddenly brought up the Yu family's affairs. Your father is right. The Yu family's affairs cannot be completely resolved with money. Now Yu Runze is in prison, my father is lying in the hospital, and I was raised by the Yu family. I can't just sit back and watch the Yu family suffer. But no matter what, this has nothing to do with the Qi family. I really don't want our love to be tainted by worldly interests. It would make me feel ashamed and very sorry for you."

Qi Yao kissed her forehead: "Actually, I have wanted to ask my family to help the Yu family for a long time, but... I am not the head of the family now, and the elders have their own ideas, and I can't convince them. But as long as I have it, I can give it to you. No matter what you want to do, I will support you unconditionally."

Yu Wanqiao smiled.

When she thought about how Qi Yao found her more than 20 million yuan from somewhere when she was about to start her own business, she felt warm in her heart.

"Yeah, I believe you."

Yu Wanqiao smiled sweetly and fell asleep in his arms.

Qi Yao couldn't sleep, with the beauty in his arms, he didn't even dare to kiss her, let alone move around, for fear of touching her belly.

He stared blankly, swallowed his saliva, and endured the time miserably.

It was not until the second half of the night that I could no longer hold on and finally closed my eyes and fell asleep.

…

The next day.

When Qi Yao woke up, Yu Wanqiao was no longer by his side.

He quickly got up and saw that it was already half past ten in the morning. He hurried to the balcony and looked down. He saw that eight chubby Samoyeds had been picked up. Lin Shuyi, Wen Dai and Yu Wanqiao were sitting in the yard drinking morning tea, Qi Xixing and Lin Jiayi were building a doghouse, and Qi Zheng was standing by, giving instructions.

Qi Yao turned around and went back to the house, washed and dressed as quickly as possible, then went downstairs to say hello to everyone.

Today is the first day of New Year's Day.

He was actually quite embarrassed. There were elderly people and pregnant women at home, and he should have taken the responsibility of taking care of everyone, but he ended up overslept.

Lin Jiayi looked at him with excitement on his face: "Uncle-in-law! I moved next door to you!"

Qi Yao smiled: "Welcome, welcome!"

Wendy: "What do you want to eat? Come over and grab a snack. It's time for lunch soon."

Qi Yao walked over and sat down next to Yu Wanqiao. He picked up a piece of mung bean cake and started eating. "I just want a little something to fill my stomach."

Yu Wanqiao quickly handed him her thermos cup: "Goat milk, hot, drink it quickly."

Qi Yao looked at her pink thermos cup and felt a little embarrassed to take it: "You drink it yourself, I'll just drink tea."

As he spoke, he picked up the teapot on the table and poured a little into a clean, empty cup.

Everyone chatted for a while. The puppies had all grown up a lot and were chasing and playing with each other in the yard. For a moment, the warm midday sun slanted down, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Just at this moment, Yu Wanqiao suddenly received a call from Uncle Jin.

She answered without hesitation: "Uncle Jin."

Uncle Jin: "Miss, Director Yu's test results today are relatively stable, and he insists on being discharged from the hospital."

Yu Wanqiao thought for a moment and said, "If the doctor agrees, let's send him back to Yu Garden."

Uncle Jin seemed a little embarrassed. After a while, he said, "Director Yu called Director Qi this morning to borrow money, but Director Qi didn't agree. Director Qi said he would find time to visit him after he was discharged from the hospital. Also, Director Yu asked me several times today, asking me..."

Yu Wanqiao's heart skipped a beat.

She never dreamed that her father would ask her father-in-law to borrow money so soon.

Yu Wanqiao hurriedly asked, "What did my dad ask you?"

She had lowered her voice.

But everyone around the table heard it.

At once, several people looked in her direction.

Uncle Jin hesitated, "I asked where your betrothal gifts were. I suspect he might want to use them to tide over the Yu family's difficulties. Besides, he's not trying to fill the hole in Yu's finances, but he hasn't given up on the overseas sales of new energy vehicles, and he wants to use your betrothal gifts to pave the way."

Yu Wanqiao was glad that she had already brought out her betrothal gifts. "Never mind him! I'll take some time out in the next two days to go home and talk to him."

Uncle Jin said repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I feel relieved with your words. There's no such thing as an overnight grudge between father and daughter. Now that Yu Runze is in jail, your conflict is over. If you have anything to say, just talk it out."

The call ended.

Yu Wanqiao's cheeks began to feel hot.

Wen Dai smiled faintly: "My in-laws want to use your betrothal gift?"

Those betrothal gifts are really quite a lot.

In addition to gold, silver, and jewelry, there are also many antique jewelry of intangible cultural heritage, jewelry made by master-level classical craftsmanship, and numerous real estates at home and abroad. Any manor is worth more than one billion US dollars, not to mention that in addition to European manors, there are also medieval castles, pastures, flower fields and orchards, shops, etc.

Yu Wanqiao looked embarrassed: "Yes... Uncle Jin just made a random guess, it's not certain."

According to the marriage rules in Jinling City, there is generally no such thing as a betrothal gift, but the man will prepare a house and a car. No matter what the man gives, the woman will give a dowry of similar value. For example, the man buys a gold bracelet for the woman, and the woman buys a watch for the man. It is a give-and-take relationship. Then all these things are taken back to the couple's home as starting capital for the family.
