Seeing his cold demeanor, the gossipy designer walked away and whispered to the person next to him, "Hmph, young and full of energy, he'll never amount to anything. I think he's probably the next Wei Jiaqi."

"Exactly. Who are you putting on airs for every day?"

"Just pretending to be noble."

Lu Liunian just focused on looking at the exhibits.

The female designer also seemed to have the surname Pei, the same as Pei Qinghuan.

However, he felt sorry for her situation, and Pei Qinghuan had never mentioned this to him, so it should not be the same person.

He then continued to concentrate on his own creation.

In stark contrast to this calmness, the Lu family is not at peace at this time.

Lu Zhicheng has been keeping an eye on Li Jing'er these days, fearing that she would get close to another man again.

Li Jing'er was annoyed by being stared at and threw the bowl: "Lu Zhicheng, have you had enough of this? My colleagues at work will laugh at me if you keep doing this!"

Lu Zhicheng was stunned for a long time, then laughed out loud: "In your place, can people who work together still be called colleagues?"

He looked at the broken pieces on the ground: "And why did you just throw the bowl so casually?"

Li Jing'er stood up in embarrassment and said, "Are you annoying? I'm the one who pays for the family. What's wrong with me breaking a bowl? I can just buy a new one."

She picked up her bag and went out: "Don't bother me."

Lu Zhicheng followed her with a dark look, but thinking that he was unemployed now and the family was supported by Li Jing'er, he held his anger and cleaned up the mess.

Lu Ma slapped her thigh and said, "What a sin! I married such a daughter-in-law."

Lu Zhicheng said with a gloomy face: “Mom, please stop talking.”

Mother Lu sighed, "Zhicheng, it's all my fault for not saving more money for you. Why do we have to endure this?"

Lu Zhicheng looked at Li Jing'er's receding back, but what he was thinking in his heart was whether Li Jing'er would hug and kiss various men in the bar.

He suddenly asked, "Mom, am I fat?"

Mother Lu was stunned for a moment and turned her head away embarrassedly: "No way, Zhicheng, being fat is a blessing, and there's nothing wrong with a man being a little fat."

Lu Zhicheng thought about it and it was true, but what if Li Jing'er really liked those pretty boys outside and was seduced away by them?

He looked in the mirror and felt vaguely anxious.

In the early morning, Li Jing'er came back from get off work.

When she pushed the door open, a pair of dark eyes stared at her.

She was startled, and it took her a long time to realize that it was Lu Zhicheng: "Zhicheng, are you crazy?"

Lu Zhicheng snatched her phone away: "You smell like tobacco again. Are you having a good chat with some man again? Did you add someone else on WeChat?"

He lowered his head to unlock his phone: "I want to check."

Li Jing'er snatched it back, her heart beating wildly: "Are you crazy? I work hard outside to make money, and you actually think I'm sorry for you?"

"I'm still carrying your child in my belly. Are you human?"

Lu Zhicheng said sullenly, “You’re still working at a bar with a big belly. You still have the nerve to do that.”

Li Jing'er was furious, feeling aggrieved and angry.

She slapped him and said, "I work in the bar for this family. If you hadn't been unable to find a job, would I be so poor?"

"I thought I followed you because you were rich and considerate, but I didn't expect you to be such a person!"

She thought of Butler Gao. Now Lu Zhicheng was too lazy to move at home. He had gained weight visibly and looked a bit like Butler Gao. She suddenly felt like vomiting.

Lu Zhicheng was stunned. He didn't expect Li Jing'er to hit him.

His face suddenly turned as black as coal.

Li Jing'er withdrew her hand and was also frightened, but soon she turned around and walked out.

Lu Zhicheng quickly grabbed her hand: “Where are you going?”

Li Jing'er coldly shook him off: "I don't want to stay with you anymore. I'm going to stay in a hotel for one night."

Lu Zhicheng glared at her: “How dare you!”

Li Jing'er looked back at him: "Why wouldn't I dare? If you have the ability, go and make money!"

After living for so many days, she finally understood that the Lu family has no money now and depends entirely on her. It was a mistake for her to marry into the family!

Lu Zhicheng choked up, thinking about the interviewers looking at him with scrutinizing eyes during the interview, and immediately retracted his thoughts.

"Jing'er, you weren't like this before. You were very considerate and gentle."

Li Jing'er shook off his hand and walked out the door.

"I was gentle and considerate because you were so handsome back then. Now, don't you even look at yourself?"

Lu Zhicheng didn't dare to stop her, for fear that she would ask him to find a job again.

But when he heard Li Jing'er's words, his self-esteem was hurt again.

Mother Lu came out anxiously: "Jing'er won't run away from home, right? What will happen to the family if she leaves?"

She can now steadily get 500 yuan from Li Jing'er every month for playing cards. Li Jing'er has long been her god of wealth and is unwilling to let her go.

When Lu Zhicheng heard this, he felt a little panicked, but he had just been humiliated like that, so how could he persuade Li Jing'er to come back.

"Hmph, it's good that she's out. The house will be quiet."

Lu Ma worried, "What if she gives the money to other men?"

“She dares!”

Although Lu Zhicheng made a harsh statement, he was even more suspicious after hearing this.

I didn't sleep the whole night, and the next day my dark circles were very obvious, making me look even more haggard.
