Chen Yunqi: ...

Can't understand.

But it felt really impressive, considering how proud and confident Dad sounded.

Back in the living room, Chen Yunqi wolfed down his food, his mind filled with the desire for another one, feeling that even the toy car wasn't fun anymore.

It would be great if cars could eat.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Jiang Nan turned her head to look at him and asked curiously.

Chen Yunqi pouted and pushed the useless toy car far away, "I want to eat ice cream..."

"I haven't eaten mine yet, here you go."

Chen Yunqi looked down at the extra little pudding in his hand, and asked her with a puzzled expression, "Aren't you going to eat it?"

He and his sister longed for it day and night, yet they could only eat one piece of it each time. Jiang Nan's older sister didn't even like it.

Jiang Nan swallowed hard, her mouth watering, but ultimately turned her face away forcefully and said seriously, "I won't eat it. I'm the older sister."

Chen Muxue ate the ice cream in her mouth, blinked her big, bright eyes, and seemed to be deep in thought.

Jiang Nan was picked up by Jiang Chao and his wife.

Night deepened.

In the bedroom.

Chen Lu was yawning and just about to go to sleep when Liang Zhirou suddenly pulled out an unopened cosplay outfit from the closet.

I don't know which game it's from, but it looks familiar.

The key point is that it's somewhat revealing.

More importantly, this is the men's version.

He was startled awake and wrapped himself tightly in the blanket.

"What do you mean?" Chen Lu said hurriedly. "I'm warning you, Liang Zhirou, your behavior is very perverted."

This idiot dares to force him to wear this thing today, he might dare to force him to wear women's clothes tomorrow!

"Then why do you always make me wear cosplay outfits for you?" The girl tilted her head.

"No, wearing this to do that kind of thing is too outrageous, I can't accept it."

Chen Lu couldn't convince himself no matter what.

"I didn't tell you to wear that for that!" Liang Zhirou's face turned red with anxiety. She had just been wondering why Chen Lu was reacting so strongly. "I'm doing this for research. This outfit was sent by the game company. I'm just using you to find inspiration for the new skin for this character."

She, Mu Zhimu, is not like Chen Lu; she's not that kind of person.

Using materials is using materials; we wouldn't use these clothes for *that* kind of thing.

At most... at most, it's just touching and hugging.

That was just a side effect!

"You call this research!" Chen Lu continued to shout, "If word got out that my billionaire boss was wearing this, how would he survive?!"

Seeing that he still wouldn't agree, Liang Zhirou had no choice but to push him down and whisper in his ear, "You...you can buy that stepmother dress in your shopping cart..."

"You should have said so earlier."

Whether the reputation of being the founder of Polaris is merely an external thing or whether Liang Zhirou's happiness is the most important thing.

Chen Lu dotes on his wife the most.

Just as I was about to change my clothes, the door was slowly pushed open, bit by bit.

"Mom~" Chen Muxue pushed open the door on tiptoe, her voice childish and aggrieved, and Chen Lu felt that she was even being a little spoiled.

Liang Zhirou sat down on the edge of the bed, pulled Chen Muxue into her arms, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"Mom, when are you going to give me a big sister?"

Chen Lu & Liang Zhirou: "?"

...

The coffee shop opened at the end of the year.

They didn't hold any grand opening ceremony, set off firecrackers to disturb the residents, or run any advertisements.

This shop appeared quietly on Binjiang Road. Its exterior decoration is simple and elegant, and there are a few pots of flowers at the entrance. At first glance, it is inconspicuous and looks like it is indifferent to the world.

Just like its proprietress.

To be honest, if they really wanted to promote it, Liang Zhirou's account with millions of followers could just shout it out, and the store would be packed with people every day, turning it into a pilgrimage site for anime fans.

Although she had already posted her wedding photos on social media, it did not diminish the enthusiasm of many fans.

Now even artists have their own favorite characters; it just goes to show how terrifying anime culture is.

This kind of thing is terrifying for Liang Zhirou, who is socially anxious, so she has no intention of promoting it at all.

Chen Lu collected his thoughts and slowly walked inside.

As soon as I entered, I heard a sweet, coquettish voice say, "Welcome."

After Lin Miaomiao looked up and saw that it was him, she gave him the middle finger.

Chen Lu suspected that this guy even wanted to take back that "Welcome" greeting.

“If you keep shouting like that, I’ll let you yell at me when I come to the company. Anyway, you’re carrying a mortgage now, so you can’t leave even if you want to.” Chen Lu said calmly. This guy’s apartment downstairs from his was being renovated, and he was still carrying a loan.

He and Liang Zhirou had originally discussed helping Lin Miaomiao cover the more than one million yuan she was short, but she refused, insisting that the bank make a profit from the difference.

It can only be said that Lin Miaomiao is really very clear-headed. She has always been very clear about what needs to be distinguished. Although they have known each other for so many years and have a good relationship, neither of them has ever taken the initiative to chat with the other in private.

Only those who have taken out a mortgage know how terrifying mortgage interest rates can be.

However, the fact that this item can be returned ahead of schedule is better than usual.

"Are you even human?" Lin Miaomiao gritted her teeth in anger, truly baffled as to how Zhirou could have fallen for this bastard.

Annoyed by her nagging, Chen Lu simply put on a cold face and threatened her: "Madam, you don't want to be unable to pay your mortgage, do you?"

"Zhirou!"

Lin Miaomiao shouted and went to Liang Zhirou to complain.

Chen Lu finally had a chance to look around. The interior decoration had been decided in advance, with pure white tables and chairs, huge glass windows that clearly showed the river, and a simple and bright style everywhere.

The bookshelves along the wall are piled high with books, making it a sort of semi-book bar. This kind of environment makes it easy for people to calm down. Liang Zhirou has put some equipment here and often paints when she has free time.
