"Didn't you want children before? Why don't you want them now?"

"Of course we want to, but we haven't had the time lately."

Ye Zhou pinched the girl's soft cheek. "I've been free lately. Let's go on vacation after you're done."

The girl's eyes sparkled. "Okay."

...

When the court hearing began, An You was surrounded by several simply dressed deaf-mute people, while opposite her was a glamorous and wealthy boss.

Ye Zhou watched silently from behind the courtroom. The girl didn't show much emotion throughout the process; instead, she spoke logically and persuasively, with well-organized materials.

Ultimately, the judge ruled in favor of An Youhe's side.

Ye Zhou, sitting in the audience, overheard the conversation around him and learned that An Youhe's help to these migrant workers was completely free of charge.

After it was over, An Youhe saw Ye Zhou at the door and her smile returned.

"Why are you here too?"

Ye Zhou ruffled the girl's hair. "I've been here the whole time. You did a great job. I almost forgot that you're already a well-known lawyer."

The girl pouted her pink lips, "No way, I'm still a long way from being a top lawyer!"

...

"Old Zhou, you're so rich now, why do you still live in such a small house?" Liu Tian sat on the sofa and looked around. This was his first time visiting Ye Zhou's home.

For ordinary people, a 200-square-meter house is already considered a luxury home.

But for Ye Zhou now, he has enough money to buy a house of several thousand square meters in the city center.

Ye Zhou smiled and said, "There's no need for that. Houses are made of reinforced concrete. The most important thing is the people living inside and who they live with."

Liu Tian chatted idly, without explaining his purpose for coming.

Ye Zhou had just returned from a major project and was now taking a long break. He hadn't seen Liu Tian for a while, so he asked Liu Tian about some things in his life.

Liu Tian finally couldn't hold back any longer. "Old Zhou, I want to propose to Sister Qing. I know that Sister Qing is not yet thirty years old, and there are many female celebrities who are not married by the age of thirty. The income gap between Sister Qing and me is too big. Even though I have changed jobs several times, I can only earn 20,000 yuan a month now."

I feel a little unworthy of Qingjie. She might become arrogant and haughty one day, and dump me.

Ye Zhou frowned. "Is it because you're afraid my sister will dump you that you want to propose?"

"No, we've been dating for a long time now, and I think the time is right."

Dressed in casual clothes, Ye Zhou leaned back on the sofa and said, "Why are you asking me about this? You're the one who's going to propose to Ye Qing, not me."

Liu Tian chuckled. "What are you talking about? Do you think you'd agree if I proposed to you?"

Ye Zhou raised an eyebrow with a smug grin, "Why don't you give it a try?"

"Never mind, never mind. I didn't expect you to be so promiscuous even though you're already a married man." Liu Tian stood up. "I just wanted to talk to you, but now I think I know what to do."

Are you really going to propose to my sister?

"No, she's been very busy lately. I haven't seen her in a long time. She's been working day and night for two hundred yuan in overtime pay. I'm leaving now."

Liu Tian now looked like he had been drained of all his energy, not by a demon, but by work.

Ye Zhou, who was once a corporate slave himself, knows this all too well.

"Don't go yet," Ye Zhou said.

Liu Tian turned around and saw Ye Zhou take a black card out of his pocket.

"No, I have money, though not as much as you, but I don't need your charity."

Ye Zhou patiently explained, "Do you remember the summer after the college entrance exam? I asked you for a dollar to buy ten Bitcoins for you, and I've been keeping them safe for you ever since."

Liu Tian's eyes widened. "Bitcoin! It's worth a lot of money now. I thought you were joking! I didn't expect it to be true?"

Ye Zhou nodded, "I sold all my Bitcoins a while ago, this is your share, but I haven't had a chance to give it to you yet."

Liu Tian stood there, feeling a mix of emotions. "But I didn't do anything before, I just gave you a dollar. I can't accept this. I feel like this money isn't mine."

Ye Zhou stood up and stuffed the card into Liu Tian's hand. "Take it. You can do a lot of things with money, but you can't do anything without it."

As Ye Zhou spoke, he patted Liu Tian's now thin shoulder meaningfully.

Looking at his longtime friend who had already achieved great success, Liu Tian smiled and said, "Old Zhou, I know you're a good person and you're not short of money, but in the end, this thing isn't mine. If you want to return it to me, just give me back the one yuan from back then."

Liu Tian placed the black card on the transparent glass coffee table, then turned and left.

...

An Youhe drove the car, with Ye Zhou in the passenger seat, and the two arrived at an antique-style mansion.

The plaque above reads "Lin Family Old Residence".

An Youhe, wearing a light-colored floral dress, walked in hand in hand with Ye Zhou.

The Lin family has many servants. Over the years, with the development of technology, the Lin Group's capital has declined somewhat, but through years of accumulation, the Lin family has a rich fortune, and servants can still be seen everywhere in the courtyard.

The two explained their purpose, and soon a clever little maid led them to another residence.

The beautiful woman sitting in the rocking chair by the pond turned her head and greeted the two of them, or more precisely, greeted An Youhe.

"Youhe!"

An Youhe smiled sweetly and walked over. Only when she got closer did she realize that Lin Mengting, who was wearing a loose light purple dress, had such a big belly.
