Zhou Zhenhui stared at the charming woman standing at the door of their box.

He was a businessman who had to negotiate business everywhere, but he had never seen anyone dare to be so rude to him.

And this glamorous woman who was dressed gaudy and heavily made up was his nominal cousin.

She is the daughter of his great-grandmother's sister's son. His grandfather, Mr. Zhou, married four wives in his life, so they are cousins without blood relationship.

The enchanting aura that hit him made him feel uncomfortable. "Looking for me? Who do you think you are?"

"Brother Hui, my aunt asked me to marry you, and you glared at me and said that to me?"

Li Xuemei glared at Zhou Zhenhui and was about to rush out to argue with him.

Seeing that the woman wanted to marry Zhou Zhenhui so much, Su Shuoci was not angry anymore. She was just a crazy woman.

So he sat next to Gu Jiaojiao while she ate, and protected her at the same time so that she wouldn't get hurt by the crazy woman.

At this time, the assistant standing next to Zhou Zhenhui stopped her: "Miss cousin, don't be rude to our boss just because you rely on the relationship with Fourth Grandma."

"I'm so beautiful, why do I need to rely on my aunt's connections? Why wouldn't Brother Hui like me?"

The assistant was about to say something when they heard their boss say, "Stop talking nonsense and get her out."

"You, Zhou Zhenhui, how dare you do this to me? No wonder you... um..." Li Xuemei wanted to shout more, but her mouth was blocked.

"Brother Zhou, what's going on?" Gu Jiaojiao asked curiously. She didn't stop liking gossip just because she was pregnant.

"You eat first, I will tell you slowly, don't let my goddaughter starve." Zhou Zhenhui said gently.

After hearing his story, Gu Jiaojiao learned that in the early days, their Zhou family was just a small workshop in Gangcheng.

There are many small workshops like their Zhou family's. Grandma Li Xuemei's parents' home is also a small workshop.

Grandma Li Xuemei's family gave birth to several daughters, none of whom received much education and had to work in workshops since childhood.

The eldest daughter had never received a single year of education before marrying the young Mr. Zhou as his fourth concubine.

Although their youngest daughter did not receive much education, she married into the scholarly family of Li.

Because the son of the Li family had been married for several years but had no son, in order to expand the family, Li married a sixteen-year-old second wife under the arrangement of his parents.

In Li's scholarly family, Li Xuemei's grandmother could be said to be out of place.

Her husband was well-read and naturally hoped that his wife could read and write, but Li Xuemei's grandmother was unwilling to spend time on reading at all.

She couldn't understand the actions of the scholars in the Li family. Could they just get together as a family to recite poems and tell historical stories and eat their fill?

Isn't it because she makes money from business to support them? And you still say she is uneducated, thinking that if she were educated, she could have enough to eat?

Not only did Li Xuemei's grandmother refuse to study with the Li family, she even thought they were ridiculous.

Not only did she have no common language with her husband, but she also had a bad temper. What made the Li family even more angry was that all she talked about was money, money, money.

At first, her husband tried to communicate with her, but she always complained and blamed the problems on others, making the family restless.

She gave birth to three children. One daughter died shortly after birth, and the youngest son was killed by his own accidental fall.

Only Li Xuemei's father was left, and he survived thanks to the full protection of the Li family.

Exhausted, Grandpa Li simply separated from her, and soon he married his third wife.

Unlike Grandma Li Xuemei, Grandpa Li’s third wife is gentle, virtuous and sensible, and everyone in the Li family likes her very much.

The third wife gave birth to several children in succession, becoming the hero who carried on the Li family's lineage.

Grandpa Li and his family live happily in the front yard, while Grandma Li Xuemei lives alone in the backyard, which is cold and lonely.

She suffered in this scholarly family, and her personality gradually became irritable and moody.

Especially since her son was taken away by his parents-in-law, teaching him to read and write made her feel even more isolated and helpless.

Her biological son loved his mother so much that many years later he gave his first daughter to her as a companion.

So she vented all her dissatisfaction on her granddaughter, Li Xuemei.

Whenever Li Xuemei ran to the front yard to play with her younger siblings, her grandmother would scold her harshly, feeling that her granddaughter had betrayed her.

It can be said that Li Xuemei grew up under the constant abuse and complaints of her grandmother.

Why did she continue to live with her grandmother when she grew up? It was because she fell in love with her grandmother's sister's grandson.

If Li Xuemei left her grandmother, she would never see her aunt's grandson again.

Her grandmother knew what she was thinking, and not only did she not help her find a husband, she also took out all her resentment on her.

He curses about everything every day and often quarrels with his granddaughter. The frequent quarrels make both the grandfather and granddaughter exhausted.

Li Xuemei lives her life burdened by her grandmother's negative energy, and the lack of reciprocation in her feelings makes her even more miserable.

It's like his whole body is covered with thorns. As soon as he catches Gu Jiaojiao, he starts talking nonsense.

After listening to Zhou Zhenhui's story, Gu Jiaojiao sighed, "Oh my God, it would be strange if such a person is not extreme. No wonder he speaks so harshly!"

"She considers herself your fiancée. Isn't that just delusional?" Su Shuoci looked at Zhou Zhenhui with contempt.

Zhou Zhenhui smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Yeah, she's always been full of negative energy since she was little, so it's normal for her to have delusions."

Gu Jiaojiao suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "If she didn't have your grandfather's approval, she wouldn't dare to say anything so blatantly. Would your grandfather force you to marry her?"

Zhou Zhenhui shook his head. "My grandfather did think of forcing me to marry the Li family's granddaughter, but not her. After all, the Li family has a very high status in Hong Kong City."

"So, someone as capable as you also has to worry about being forced to get married by your family?" Gu Jiaojiao asked with a smile, but worry flashed in her eyes.

Zhou Zhenhui smiled and comforted him, "It's okay. I have enough strength to fight against my family now, and now I have the help of you and Mr. Su."

Gu Jiaojiao sighed, "I'm glad you think so. I didn't expect you to have such troubles with arranged marriages. I just hope you can find someone you like and marry as soon as possible so that you can live a better life in the future."

Zhou Zhenhui nodded, "I understand, Mr. Su, Jiaojiao thanks you for taking care of me during this time."

An unnatural look flashed across Gu Jiaojiao's face. Initially, she wanted to take advantage of the Zhou family's power, but it took another two years for her to become rich!

So it turned out that it was the couple who made Zhou Zhenhui successful, but it doesn’t matter, after all, he is still a capable person.

"No, no, we just take care of each other. Now that you're okay, we're relieved."

"Boss Zhou, you'd better open your eyes and find a partner to marry as soon as possible. Then you can have a son to take care of my daughter."

Su Shuoci said this expressionlessly, but he agreed with Zhou Zhenhui's character.
