Yu Yunzhi has been lukewarm in the entertainment industry. Despite starring in multiple hit dramas, he always fell just short of winning an award. After eight years in the industry, he had no negat...
The next morning, Yu Yunzhi was woken up by his phone ringing. He stretched lazily in his warm bed, still sleepy.
This is the earliest she's gotten up in all these days.
I felt more awake after washing my face and brushing my teeth.
The wardrobe was full of new clothes, which dazzled Yu Yunzhi.
Finally, Yu Yunzhi chose a cheongsam made of Xiangyun yarn. The originally heavy and old-fashioned color did not show on Yu Yunzhi at all, but instead made her look even more delicate.
The addition of a striking full-green jadeite bracelet on her wrist further enhances her elegant and sophisticated appearance.
Wearing a pair of pearl-strap chunky high heels in a modern Chinese style, Yu Yunzhi gracefully descended the stairs, drawing everyone's attention.
Shao Wenyan had gotten up long ago. He originally wanted Yu Yunzhi to sleep a little longer and that he would wake her up later, but he didn't expect her to get up so soon.
Shao Wenyan went up to help Yu Yunzhi, "Why are you up so early?"
"Is it early?" Yu Yunzhi asked in surprise.
It seems to be getting late. Several people are already sitting in the living room, including Grandma Shao and Mrs. Shao.
"Hmm! Good morning! Breakfast isn't ready yet."
"Zhizhi, get up! Come sit here with Grandma." Grandma Shao waved excitedly to Yu Yunzhi.
Her granddaughter-in-law is so beautiful! She stunned everyone the moment she appeared.
Yu Yunzhi released Shao Wenyan's wrist, took the hand that Grandma Shao was extending to her, and sat down next to Grandma Shao.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Shao immediately changed seats and sat on the other side of Yu Yunzhi. She and Grandma Shao each held one of Yu Yunzhi's hands.
"Beautiful! Beautiful!" Just as Shao Wenyan had said, when Grandma Shao saw the jade bracelet on Yu Yunzhi's wrist, a satisfied and appreciative expression appeared on her face, and she praised it twice.
"Why are you up so early? Is the bed uncomfortable? Auntie will change it for you in a bit..." Wen Jingmo said with some concern.
Since it's the first time my daughter-in-law has come to visit, I naturally want to give her the best of everything!
"No, no, it's very comfortable! I went to bed early last night, so I woke up early too."
"How about you stay another night? Auntie will take you out for a walk today. We can buy some spring clothes..."
Wen Jingmo has fallen in love with dressing up Yu Yunzhi. It's her favorite thing to do right now, without a doubt. She's happy every time she sees Yu Yunzhi wearing the beautiful clothes she bought for her.
"Mom, we have to go back today. I have things to do tomorrow," Shao Wenyan interrupted his mother's enthusiasm.
Yu Yunzhi waved her hand repeatedly, saying that she already had enough spring clothes. If she wore one set a day, she might not be able to finish them all by the time she needed to wear short sleeves in the summer.
"If you have something to do, just go by yourself! Nobody's stopping you. I'm just taking Zhizhi out for a stroll; I don't need you."
Wen Jingmo was utterly unkind to her son. Seriously, he's such a grown man, yet he still insists on clinging to Zhizhi and disrupting her and her beloved wife's wonderful plans.
Having no other option, Shao Wenyan could only turn to his father, who was reading the newspaper nearby, for help. His mother seemed to have forgotten what day it was tomorrow, but his father would surely remember!
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, his dad must have prepared a gift, otherwise his mom will definitely ignore him once she finds out.
He's already planned his schedule for tomorrow, and he absolutely can't let his mom steal it!
Mr. Shao seemed oblivious to his son's cries for help; his wife was more important to him than his son.
He gives gifts, but now his wife's favorite is clearly his daughter-in-law, so he knows exactly what he needs to do to please his wife.
Rather than a Valentine's Day gift, the best gift for his wife now is to not bother her, allowing her to spend more time with her daughter-in-law.
"Auntie, tomorrow is Valentine's Day, I want to go out and play with my brother..."
Seeing that his father was unreliable, Shao Wenyan wanted to tell his mother that tomorrow was Valentine's Day himself, but Yu Yunzhi beat him to it.
He never expected that the little girl, who was always nervous in front of her elders, would reject Shao's mother because of him.
"Okay~" Mrs. Shao was a little disappointed, her time with her daughter-in-law decreased by 1.
Although somewhat saddened that she couldn't go shopping with her daughter-in-law, Wen Jingmo quickly composed herself. "Could you spare some time for Auntie today? You've spent so much time with that brat..."
As Wen Jingmo spoke, he began to sound aggrieved.
"Okay~" Yu Yunzhi found it a bit funny, feeling that Aunt Shao was even more childlike than her.
Wen Jingmo's expression changed instantly, as soon as he heard Yu Yunzhi say yes, his mood brightened and he beamed with joy.
"Count me in, count me in, I'll go with you all!" Grandma Shao excitedly raised her hands, she also wanted to go out and play with her granddaughter-in-law.
...
Shao Wenyan watched as the three women, one after another, decided on the order of their trip in less than five minutes.
Although his girlfriend couldn't be with him today, Shao Wenyan was very happy because Yu Yunzhi had said she would be with him. She remembered Valentine's Day, and she remembered him too.
It's worth noting that Yu Yunzhi doesn't really care about holidays. If it weren't for the people around her reminding her, she sometimes wouldn't even realize that a holiday had passed.
This shows that she was also calculating the date of Valentine's Day and was secretly looking forward to it just like him.

After breakfast, the four women set off.
As for why there are four, it's because there's not only Grandma Shao, Mama Shao, and Yu Yunzhi, but also Ruan Youqi.
Yu Yunzhi, being a public figure, wore a mask and hat very tightly, but she was still recognized while shopping.
Some netizens secretly took photos of Yu Yunzhi shopping and posted them online, as well as photos of her having dinner with Grandma Shao and others.
[Is that Yunbao?! She's so beautiful! I declare her the best unofficial spokesperson for cheongsams! Even such an old-fashioned color looks amazing on her!]
