Lin Lin sneered, "Alright, there's no need to say anything more. Hurry up and leave, or I might not transfer the money."

After saying that, Lin Lin turned and left, and the boy behind him indeed stopped talking.

Mingxiu sat in the car looking at the gift: "Wow, your mom is so generous! Tsk tsk tsk, this is really high quality, it must have cost a lot of money, and it's a set!" Mingxiu said, looking at the set of pink gemstone jewelry in the box.

Kangxi glanced at it and nodded: "It's alright, the craftsmanship is quite good, but the water quality is a little worse than the one inside the space."

Mingxiu rolled her eyes: "How can they be the same? Don't you even think about where that piece came from? It was nurtured in a spiritual spring. Although I don't know what it's used for, just its appearance is incomparable to these things."

For some unknown reason, a crystal suddenly appeared in the spiritual spring. It was milky white and transparent, with a moist and lustrous appearance. It was very beautiful. When Mingxiu first saw it, she was captivated by it. Kangxi originally wanted to make it into a necklace, but Mingxiu refused, saying that making such a piece into a necklace would be a disgrace to it.

“However, who is that young man sitting next to your mother? I noticed he didn’t say a word the whole time, and the atmosphere was strange,” Mingxiu asked.

"She's not an important person. I didn't introduce her earlier because it wasn't necessary. You won't see her again, so there's no need for you to know." Of course, Kangxi knew who this person was. She was the mother of this soldier. She was really good to him, otherwise Kangxi wouldn't have continued to be as filial to her as before after he came here. But there was one thing Kangxi couldn't understand about her, which was that she changed men too quickly. Kangxi had always been afraid to let Mingxiu have contact with her because he was afraid that she would lead Mingxiu astray.

After meeting each other's parents, Mingxiu and Kangxi found a time to register their marriage.

As for the wedding, Mingxiu didn't really like it because the two of them didn't have any family in the world. Even if they had a wedding, there wouldn't be many people to invite and it would be too much trouble. So the two decided to have a destination wedding. Of course, this decision was made by Mingxiu herself because Kangxi was not really willing. He always wanted to give Mingxiu a formal and glamorous wedding.

Mingxiu looked at Kangxi, who was sitting on the sofa throwing a tantrum, and sat down next to him. "Alright, I know what you're thinking, but you gave me a perfect wedding in the last life, and our children attended that wedding. Now, even if we hold a wedding, none of the children will attend, so I don't really want to have one."

Kangxi looked at Mingxiu and finally gave in.

In their senior year, they basically didn't need to study anymore, so Mingxiu and Kangxi decided to return the house they had lived in for three years. They had bought houses elsewhere during those years, and Kangxi already owned a house, so the two of them decided to move to a different place.

In the quiet alley, in a secluded courtyard, Mingxiu and Kangxi entered. They saw that the courtyard was a typical siheyuan (traditional courtyard house), with carved beams and painted rafters. Right at the entrance was a grape trellis, with lush grapes growing below and wisteria flowers covering the wall next to it, looking quite beautiful.

Further inside was a pond with lotus leaves and a few koi carp. Then there was a covered walkway with a pavilion on top, and behind that were the rooms. Mingxiu went inside and was very satisfied with the furnishings.

The design incorporates many Western elements, and the surrounding rooms are all connected, allowing you to walk around inside. It provides shade so you don't have to go out when it gets cold, and you can go anywhere within your own home.

Mingxiu really likes the current decor.

"Have you decided what you're going to do next?" Mingxiu asked Kangxi while fiddling with her computer.

Kangxi nodded. In the past few years, he had done a lot of things, such as investing and stock trading, and had made a lot of money. He had also invested in many companies. So, in terms of money, all they lacked was enough for the two of them to spend lavishly for several lifetimes without running out of money. However, Kangxi had always been uninterested in these things.

"Over the past few years, I've seen a lot, and I'm quite interested in directing. I'm planning to become a director and make a couple of films to see how it goes." Kangxi has learned a lot from Chen Sheng over the past few years. After finishing the filming of his previous film, Kangxi became very interested in filmmaking and has been learning about it ever since.

Mingxiu didn't care: "Alright, we have plenty of money now, so you don't have to worry about funding. If you want to film, then film. How about filming my writing? My writing has been super popular these past few years." Mingxiu asked Kangxi, thinking about what she had written in recent years.

She earned a lot of money after her previous novel was completed, and later some people even came to her door wanting to make a film based on her novels, but Mingxiu never agreed. She wrote some more novels afterward, and they were all quite successful.

Kangxi glanced at Mingxiu, recalling the love stories and strange tales about two men she had written, and hesitated, saying, "Let's wait a bit. I need to see if there are any good scripts."

Mingxiu pouted, knowing he didn't want to film what she had written. Humph!

He didn't want to film it, and Mingxiu didn't want to give it to him either. Sooner or later, she would write something that Kangxi couldn't find fault with, and then he would beg her to let him film her novel.

The following days were relatively peaceful. Mingxiu continued writing her novel, while Kangxi searched for a script he liked. The two would occasionally go out for a meal or go shopping together, and spend their evenings together. Life was incredibly comfortable.
