"That brat is asking for a beating!"

"The president of the prestigious Qin Group got married without a word. Not only was there no engagement banquet, but he didn't even let us hold a wedding!"

After confirming Lin Xue's identity, Qin Xiao was furious.

Before, I was worried that my son wouldn't be able to stand up straight; now, I hate that he's too low-key.

Didn't you see all those old business associates laughing at him? His son only knows how to make money; he can't even hold a grandson.

They finally found a chance to slap someone in the face, but this brat ruined it all!

"Dad, Qin Feng is too busy with work!"

Lin Xue realized that Old Man Qin was angry not because of her, but because he hadn't had the chance to organize the wedding.

My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

Now that she has been recognized by the elders of the Qin family, she will be the rightful wife of President Qin from now on.

Hahaha……

Qin Gou, from now on you're my money-making dog. Let him lie about military intelligence and deceive her...

This is the price of lying!

Lin Xue was furious when she thought about what happened last night and this morning.

What happened to the promise of high pay and low workload?

If she weren't a cultivator with a strong physique, what woman could withstand his abuse like that?

"You don't need to cover for that kid anymore. He's just a money-grubber. What woman would be interested in him?"

Qin Xiao was truly furious, and his words became increasingly reckless.

"Ahem, Lao Qin, stop! Look at what you just said!"

"that……"

"Daughter-in-law, we're ignoring your father!"

"Your dad is getting senile..."

"What do you want to eat for lunch? Mom will have the cook make it for you!"

Worried that her old man might say something inappropriate in his anger, Ye Xuan quickly pulled Lin Xue up to the second floor.

"Daughter-in-law, look, this is Qin Feng's bedroom. If you're tired, you can rest for a while!"

"If you're not tired, Mom will take you downstairs for a walk, so you can get to know our neighbors!"

Ye Xiao laughed heartily. Lin Xue said she wasn't tired, but needed to straighten her clothes a little.

Ye Xiang then left the room; she also needed to change her clothes and get ready.

Those old women always say she doesn't have a daughter-in-law, hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮

She wanted to take her daughter-in-law out for a stroll and show those who often mocked her how beautiful her daughter-in-law was.

Unfortunately, Ye Xiao's plan to show off his daughter-in-law ultimately failed.

An unexpected guest arrived at our home.

"Oh, Mrs. Qin, I knew you'd be home!"

"Look at her, this is my niece, isn't she incredibly beautiful?"

"She and your Xiaofeng have been playing together since they were little. If she hadn't gone up north later, their families might have even become a couple!"

An elderly woman in a cheongsam was chatting in the living room with a woman who looked to be in her thirties or forties.

Ye Xiao was very annoyed, especially when he saw this woman who was older than his son.

What do you mean by playing together since childhood?

That's because this shameless little girl keeps stealing her son's lollipops.

The two are so different, I don't know why this old woman would think of bringing such a woman to her door.

Could it be that he thinks his son can't marry a young girl, so he can even accept this old woman?

"Look at what you're saying, Mrs. Wang. Your niece looks to be in her thirties, how could my son possibly play with her?"

Although Qin Feng has been busy with work all these years, he can be said to have achieved great success and is making a fortune.

But actually he's only 30 years old this year. He is a bit old, but there are many unmarried men of similar age out there.

Qin Feng, as the youngest son of Qin Xiao and his wife, has always been very favored, even though he appears rather aloof.

The woman in front of me is at least 35 years old, and judging from her appearance, she must have already had children.

"Oh dear, Mrs. Qin~"

"Isn't your Xiaofeng still single? Don't let my niece's age fool you, there's a saying: 'A woman three years older than her husband is a lucky charm!'"

“Your Xiaofeng is 30 this year, and my niece is exactly 33. Isn’t this a match made in heaven?”

Ye Xiao frowned. This woman is only 33?

Why doesn't she believe it?

Is it because I look too old?

She looks old at such a young age; what will she look like when she's in her forties or fifties?

"Ahem, I appreciate Mrs. Wang's kindness, but my son is already married, so I won't bother your niece any longer!"

Ye Xiao picked up his teacup, took a sip, and glanced towards the stairwell.

Lin Xue had just finished tidying up her clothes and touched up her makeup before coming down from the second floor.

Just as I reached the middle of the stairs, I heard what was being said downstairs, and I couldn't help but frown.

"Mrs. Qin, please don't joke around. Everyone in our circle knows that your son is like an iron tree that never blossoms!"

"you……"

Before Mrs. Wang could finish speaking, Ye Xiao suddenly stood up.

"Daughter-in-law, have you changed your clothes?"

"Come down quickly, let me introduce you to him."

Seeing Ye Xiao's reaction, Lin Xue quickly walked down the stairs and came to her side.

"mom!"

"Have you had guests over?"

Lin Xue acted like the lady of the house, openly allowing herself to be looked at.

Mrs. Wang's face immediately darkened.

Her niece was similar, but she maintained a facade of composure.

"This is Mrs. Wang. Her family has business dealings with ours, and they visit each other occasionally!"
