“I can’t not be a strict mother. Your Uncle Zhao’s way of spoiling the child is just too much for me to bear, so I have to take on the role.”

"Zhao Hao is being taught very well by Uncle Zhao."

"Yes. Haozheng is very good. But Ningning is different from him. Too many people spoil him. I'm afraid he won't be afraid of anything in the future."

The three of them walked around outside for a bit and then came back.

Zhang Hongmei squatted down and said, "Ningning, can you stand up by yourself while holding onto the bike? Tell me."

The little guy nodded. Zhang Hongmei carried him out; the stroller was movable, and with a push, it would glide forward a bit, and he would walk a few steps along with it. Little Ningning was delighted.

"Aunt Wang, I'll go tell the kitchen."

"Go ahead, the mutton bone soup should be simmering. Dinner will be flatbread and mutton soup."

Everyone gradually returned in the evening, and Zhao Haozheng came back quite early today.

“Hongmei, I went to the toy company today too. I feel like they should come up with a new design.”

"Why don't you just bring it up in the meeting?"

"Yes, I called Carlos. He said he wanted to ask you about the design."

"Isn't this simple? Just find two people with artistic skills and draw them based on the protagonist of our game."

By the way, could you follow up with the game company? Wyatt's coming over tonight; he has three games to submit. You can take a look at them first, so they can be released simultaneously.

"Okay, I understand."

Wyattroy arrived promptly at seven o'clock and ate the cumin lamb he had ordered.

After the meal, the two strolled around the yard to digest their food.

"Wyatt, are you unhappy?"

"Yeah, I just had a bit of a disagreement with my family."

Zhang Hongmei really wanted to say that you are already very successful, and you can do without the Roy family, but this was not something she could say herself.

"Hehe, what are you struggling with? Are you trying to persuade me?"

Zhang Hongmei nodded. "You've already succeeded a lot."

"Heh, is that so? But I'm not reconciled."

"Don't you think your family will be a burden to you in the future? It's much better to build your own empire than to be bound by it, isn't it?"

Wyatt was silent for a moment. "My mom was my dad's second wife. She was my maternal grandparents' only child and they were quite wealthy. When they got together, my maternal grandparents didn't approve, but my mom was infatuated with my dad."

There was no other way; before they got married, the grandfather's condition was that he would not give any of his property to the mother, but only to their first child.

My maternal grandfather's family was a second-rate family, though not as prestigious as mine, they still had a lot of businesses.

I can't say my dad was after the money, but after he finally agreed to my grandfather's request, he probably didn't care about my mom as much anymore.

That's just how he is; he's always been a womanizer. After my mother became pregnant, he became even more promiscuous. My birth was the anniversary of her death. It was because his third wife confronted my mother; she was also pregnant.

My mother was so angry that she gave birth to me prematurely and died.

I didn't return to Roy's house until I was fourteen. My father was also very dissatisfied with me because I didn't hand over my grandfather's property.

Haha, the more it's like this, the less I'll hand it in. So our relationship is very tense.

When I returned to my family, I didn't think about inheriting anything.

But they've always been wary of me, rejected me, and tried to frame me. Haha, since they're all afraid, then I really have to fight for it.

I was taught by my maternal grandfather, so I quickly gained the favor of the elders in my family.

The more capable I was, the more uneasy they became. I learned my lesson after a few setbacks, and I realized that it was impossible for my father to give me the position, so I had no choice but to try and get things done through others.

The current situation is that the clan elders support me, and my father doesn't dare to step down and hand over his position to his proud son. This stalemate continues.

After Wyattroy finished speaking, he turned his head and saw Zhang Hongmei's sympathetic gaze and smiled.

"Are you pitying me?"

"A little. Your childhood was really quite unfortunate."

"Hehe, I'm used to it, it's nothing. I just can't let them get away with it. I've sacrificed so much for the family, and it's not going to be that easy for others to take advantage of me."

"Yes, I support you. Just let me know if you need anything!"

"Fine! On the day of the auction, the second plot of land didn't cost that much at all. It was my arrogant older brother who wanted it, and my dad told me not to participate in the bidding."

I was overjoyed when Carlos made the offer.

"Yeah, we were both quite puzzled at the time, why didn't you participate?"

“My older brother is quite something. If he wants it so badly, he should just compete with Carlos. He doesn’t have the courage.”

"Alright, it's fine if we lose a piece of land, as long as it doesn't end up in their hands."

"Hehe, I transferred 1.1 million to Carlos today. This land is still ours."

"Won't Patriarch Roy be furious when he finds out?"

"Hehe, he won't."

"Alright, stop thinking about unhappy things. Come upstairs, I'll show you my new script, it's about magic, I've written four parts so far."

"You're planning to make it into a TV series?"

"No, it's just a movie. You'll understand once you see the content."

The two returned to the study, where Wyatt intently flipped through the script, his smile growing wider.

“Great, this should be even more successful. I plan to write one a year. I see you haven’t finished yet, so please continue.”

"I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee it. Take a look at this; it should be popular too."

"This subject matter is too ordinary, but your plot design is quite good. Let's release both at the same time. However, the magic one will not be shown until Christmas."

Zhang Hongmei handed over the script for a police thriller. "I don't think this is very good, but you can find someone to revise it."

"It's okay to make changes. I'll show it to the director; he knows what to do."

"These are games. Two of them are mini-games that I designed, and one was designed by Cheng Guangxu and the other two."

"Okay. Your design fee will be increased by thirty percent."

"Hehe, that makes sense."

After seeing Wyatt off, Zhang Hongmei finally managed to coax Ningning, who was very sleepy but still insisted on not going to sleep.

The little one snuggled into Zhang Hongmei's arms and fell asleep in less than five minutes. This made Wang Xinyi upset and she went to hug Zhang Hongmei, feeling wronged.

"This kid just won't sleep. He keeps pointing to your room and insists I take him up there. He's so naughty."

"Hehe, don't worry, Annie will be back tomorrow."

“Right now, you’re number one in this kid’s heart. Annie is second, I’m third, Haozheng is fourth, and your Uncle Zhao has now moved up to fifth.”

"Yes, wife, I really have no status anymore."

Zhang Hongmei chuckled and put Ningning down. "What's wrong with liking me?"
