Chapter 534: Simple Happiness

Ever since the conversation with Zhong Jiasheng in the garden at the end of September.

For a whole week, Lin Yan had been busy managing both his family's jewelry branch and those companies that were on the verge of bankruptcy.

The matter is urgent.

He had to hold on to the company before anyone could react, and if he couldn't, he had to make a fortune.

The big bed was half empty. Yang Wanwan called to her husband who was smoking outside the balcony, "Ah Yan, aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"I have to go to the study to sort out some information later. You can rest first."

Lin Yan turned his head to take a look, then continued smoking and thinking.

“…” He and her had only been married for three months, and they were getting along more and more like friends.

Yang Wanwan felt a little lonely, thinking about the details of Lin Yiyi and Zhong Jiasheng's interactions. That look in their eyes was enough to make a person sick to death.

I secretly think that it's just pretending and acting.

How can there be a couple who can still have the same relationship as before after being married for several years?

It must be a fake love to deceive people.

During the long night, she wrapped herself tightly in a thin blanket and fell asleep.

The next morning.

Chinese breakfast was placed on the dining table, and Lin Yan and Yang Wanwan sat opposite each other.

He drank a sip of soy milk at the right temperature, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "What do you usually do in your free time?"

Yang Wanwan thought he cared about her, so she acted coquettishly, "Why? Do you remember that you have a wife now?"

"How do you women usually entertain yourself?"

"What do you mean?" Yang Wanwan felt that she had misunderstood.

Lin Yan didn't beat around the bush with her, "Take the initiative to ask Lin Yiyi out more often."

He specifically emphasized, "She must have something extraordinary to make Zhong Jiasheng care about her so much. Don't always use the fact that you have read a few more books than her as a caliper to measure yourself."

"..." She wondered why he suddenly started paying attention to her daily life.

Yang Wanwan responded unhappily, "I know."

Lin Yan wanted Yang Wanwan to get along better with Lin Yiyi, and he added, “Beauty is the reason why men like you, but it’s definitely not the reason to keep it in mind all the time.

You will certainly benefit from understanding her from other perspectives.”

Zhong Jiasheng is a man who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal.

He has a relatively cold and indifferent personality, so there must be a reason why he cares so much about someone.

The food is steaming and people who lack patience will always burn their mouths.

Even impatient people will occasionally fall into this trap.

"hiss."

"How did you get burned suddenly?" Lin Yiyi turned her head to look at the man beside her, her tone concerned.

Zhong Jiasheng pursed his lips and said nothing.

Guessing that he was badly burned, Lin Yiyi quickly pulled him to the bathroom.

The young couple left the table.

Mr. Zhong folded the newspaper, his eyes filled with surprise. "Aying, what did you just see?"

"Jiasheng deliberately scooped a spoonful of the smoking porridge and ate it. What does he want to do?" Yang Ying was also shocked.

"A self-torture trick." Zhong's father saw through it.

Yang Ying was worried without frowning, she was afraid of the traces of time.

"I'm really curious about how Yiyi married Jiasheng? She must have been bullied and deceived by him a lot."

“……”Is this what a mother should say?

Mr. Zhong spread out the newspaper again.

Sister Mei took out some ice cubes from the kitchen and quickly brought them to the bathroom next door.

Just as I walked around the corner screen, I saw a couple hugging each other beside the sink.

Sister Mei blushed and turned away quietly.

The ice cubes they brought were useless. Were they acting out the movie "Marriage on the Bus" all day?

…

The faucet was turned on, and the rushing water almost filled the entire sink.

Otherwise, find out why someone is angry.

I guess no one turned off the faucet until the water leaked all over the floor and soaked it.

Lin Yiyi coaxed him with a helpless smile and spoke to him gently.

"It's all my fault. I forgot such an important thing.

You reminded me a few days ago, but I didn't remember it. I shouldn't have done that. I apologize to you."

"How about I make you fish ball soup at noon? And I'll make you your favorite egg pancake with shallot flavor but without shallot."

Zhong Jiasheng agreed reluctantly, but sneered for the sake of face, saying, "Don't think she can be easily fooled by doing small favors every time."

He asked her to show her attitude again, "Next time, don't forget that today is our wedding day."

Lin Yiyi couldn't match his good memory and would probably forget it again.

In the north, the marriage certificate is obtained in October, and in the south, it is obtained in June.

"There can't be two, can there?"

The man knew what she was talking about. He thought for a moment and then said solemnly, "The wedding is in June."

"What about November 28?"

Lin Yiyi smiled secretly in her heart. Why was he so childish? It seemed that he marked all December as celebration months.

"Two weddings."

“…”

Lin Yiyi thought he was joking, but she knew that he was serious about everything he said.

Faced with his stubborn, sensitive and competitive personality, she chose to back off and accommodate him a little more in the trivialities of life.

"Listen to you, two wedding anniversaries, I'll mark all the anniversaries on the calendar at noon so I don't forget again."

Zhong Jiasheng was so obsessed with stock trading that he ignored his falling heart, and he returned to his original place.

"good."

Seeing him like this, it was clear that he had been coaxed. Lin Yiyi pulled his hand and walked towards the restaurant.

Sitting back in the chair, the porridge that was hot just now was now at just the right temperature.

The parents-in-law ate their breakfast with calm expressions and didn't even express any concern for Zhong Jiasheng.

Thinking of the treatment she received last time when her mouth was burned, Lin Yiyi took care of more "injured people."

Peel the eggs, pick up some side dishes, roll them into steamed buns and spread pickles on them…

Be more considerate and caring.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhong looked at each other and realized that their daughter-in-law was used to being deceived by their son.

But as parents, they should not interfere in the affairs between the young couple.

After dinner.

Lin Yiyi considerately took out the lunch roll she had sewn and put two thermos cups of herbal tea and warm water in it.

He also considerately packed a washed and dried apple so that Zhong Jiasheng could replenish vitamins during his morning break.

If apples weren't easily oxidized and looked ugly when cut, she would definitely have been more careful.

After the Zhong family man left, Lin Yiyi opened her daily gift like a blind box. The box was a bit big, and after opening it, it turned out to be a set of coffee cups.

The person who gave this birthday gift is obviously a genuine person.

Coffee cups are always available.

When she saw the small spoons on the bottom layer, she took back what she had just said.

Simple yet gorgeous, real and grand.

The pure gold coffee spoon and the pure gold sugar spoon feel heavy when you hold them in your hands.

The most attractive thing is that one of the spoon handles is inlaid with a diamond.

Lin Yiyi received more than 30 birthday gifts, but she only opened one every day. She felt as if she had won a lottery.

Lin Yiyi cooked specially at noon, but she didn't buy the whole lunch because she was afraid that her parents-in-law might not be used to her cooking.

Mrs. Ding still prepares lunch for her parents-in-law.

She only made three servings of fish ball soup and egg noodle pancakes with scallion and ginger juice, and mixed in some shredded cucumber and cut a few pieces of shredded green onions.

Without the soybean paste made by my sister-in-law, I could only stir-fry the sauce with the little bit of pickled vegetables she brought from afar, minced meat and shrimp paste.

She didn't know how to finish the pickles, as she put too little, so there was only a small dish of mixed sauce.

It’s lunch time, and we’re eating hometown food the way we haven’t eaten for a long time.

Wrap cucumber, chopped green onion and sauce in an egg pancake, add some of Mrs. Ding’s blanched shrimp, mix them all together and roll them up, it’s so delicious that it’ll make you cry.

Zhong Jiasheng ate two wraps in one go, taking a sip of his favorite fish ball soup from time to time.

Lin Yiyi ate little, she only had a burrito and a bowl of fish ball soup and then she became his burrito girl again.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhong also tried the new way of eating and found it delicious.

I usually eat light food, so I still feel a little uncomfortable with the sudden addition of scallion shreds.

...

The Zhong family is warm and comfortable, and the world outside is even more colorful.

In Hong Kong, a city with a small land area and a large population, an inside news has recently come out in the business circle.

It is said that a property including land on King's Road is listed for auction.

King's Road is in an excellent location and it is a sure win if you win the bid regardless of whether it is rebuilt or not.

Regardless of whether the news is true or not, those who hear it are excited.

The rumors came true within a few days.

An article was published in the Hong Kong Economic Weekly newspaper: On October 9, 1979, the Zhongnan Building was put up for auction.

The reason for the sale was not stated, but there was a lot of commotion.
