Chang Rihui was so engrossed in burying his head in tears that he didn't satisfy anyone's gossipy nature. Before long, the people surrounding him dispersed, leaving only Old Man Chang, who was most concerned about his marriage.
Old Man Chang spoke frankly: "Rihui, listen to your grandfather, out with the old, in with the new. Although Keqiao is a good girl, judging from the current situation, the two of you won't end up together. I advise you..."
"I don't need your persuasion! No one can say that we two are not meant to be!"
Chang Rihui roared like he had lost his mind. Old Man Chang was stunned by the roar, then gritted his teeth. This kid deserves a beating!
Old Man Chang glared at him: "No one would like you looking like this. Crying and whining like a woman, you have no manly spirit at all!"
Old Man Chang stormed off, and Chang Rihui wiped his face to stop crying. He turned to ask Chang Meiying, who had come over to get some snacks.
"Meiying, do you think Keqiao prefers me now because I'm more masculine?"
Chang Meiying, munching on a shrimp cracker, looked him up and down: "Third Brother, have you been crying your eyes out? Although I can't give you an answer, I'm sure that if Sister Keqiao is willing to break up with you, then you're not included!"
Chang Rihui choked up, about to cry again, when Chen Zhaodi walked over and scolded Chang Meiying with a smile, "Your third brother is already heartbroken enough, don't provoke him!"
She turned around and started picking at his wound again.
"Rihui, look, it's not going to work out with Keqiao either. You should hurry up and find someone new. If you weren't held back, you'd be old enough to have kids running errands. I have a whole bunch of potential dates here, including my third sister's husband's older sister... Hey, hey, hey, don't go!"
Chang Rihui returned home and cried all night. When he woke up the next day, his face was swollen like a pig's head and his eyes were squinted into slits.
Chang Meiying sat at the dining table in a daze, eating breakfast without taking a single bite, and was almost scared to death by his ghostly appearance.
He choked.
Zhou Hongyu patted Chang Meiying's back with a worried expression. Chang Xingwang looked at his heartbroken second son and asked coldly, "Since your relationship with Keqiao is over, you should go back now!"
Returning to America, Chang Rihui's spiritual homeland.
Chang Rihui was such a jerk; he almost got married to Ke Qiao!
Chang Rihui studied at America University for a year before dropping out to start his own business. As promised by him and his family, he made a fortune without any investment. Zhou Hongyu and others built their empire through hard work and had strong opinions about his way of making a fortune in finance. However, since he was able to stick to his principles and not do anything immoral, they turned a blind eye to his actions.
This guy went even further, making a fuss about immigrating his whole family to live a life of luxury, which immediately stirred up a hornet's nest.
Zhou Hongyu argued with him, but Chang Xingwang ignored him. Granny Zhou vowed never to associate with capitalist bastards again. Even Chang Meiying, a little kid who hadn't finished elementary school, took sides and threatened to break off their friendship with him.
Chang Rihui was constantly mistreated, but fortunately Ke Qiao was always by his side to comfort him and try his best to mediate. It was as if Ke Qiao was the only one in the world who understood and sympathized with him.
Deeply moved, Chang Rihui prepared a grand marriage proposal ceremony. Ke Qiao smiled and put on the ring he gave her, and they agreed to get their marriage certificate the next day. That very night, he asked that silly question.
He asked Ke Qiao if she would like to immigrate abroad and stay by his side.
Ke Qiao responded with a heavy slap, after which the two entered a cold war that lasted for several years, until Ke Qiao officially proposed breaking up and ending the relationship.
Chang Rihui resolutely turned his head away: "I'd rather die than go back! Keqiao and I will never be over!"
They are entangled together for all eternity.
Zhou Hongyu immediately raised her hand: "Don't force me to hit you! I think Ke Qiao has already told you the reason for the breakup. Whether you accept it or not, you two have broken up! Ke Qiao doesn't want you anymore. If you run to Ke Qiao and act crazy again, I'll beat you so badly that even your own mother wouldn't recognize you!"
Chang Rihui's eyes reddened. "No need for a beating, my own mother no longer recognizes me!"
Chang Rihui pleaded, looking aggrieved: "Mom, please have mercy! Your son's future happiness..."
Zhou Hongyu was too lazy to listen to his rambling, so she raised her hand and slapped him. Chang Rihui hurriedly hid under the table.
He chuckled to himself, laughing at how he had narrowly escaped disaster. When he looked up again, he saw Zhou Hongyu's shoes already in front of him.
Zhou Hongyu kicked his sturdy buttocks cleanly and decisively.
pain!
It hurts!!
It hurts!!!
Chang Rihui was both ashamed and angry. Several years had passed since he was last beaten, and the feeling was indescribable. It was a bittersweet experience.
When Chang Pengfei arrived with his wife and daughter, he was surprised to find the house in complete chaos, with his genius younger brother being the one who got beaten up.
Tsk, just as I thought, my parents are always fair; they punish everyone who makes a mistake!
Tang Xianfang had never seen such a sight before. The person scurrying around under the table was actually her brother-in-law, the pride of heaven?
And her mother-in-law...
Tang Xianfang asked in a low voice, "Mom, did you used to beat me often?"
“Me and my third brother! Meiying was spoiled and always clever. She had three gods protecting her, so no one could hit her. Shuying was the most obedient and our parents loved her the most. When we were little, half of the beatings my third brother and I got were because we made her cry!” Chang Pengfei recalled the past with emotion.
He went from being a bratty kid who always got a beating to an invisible person who rarely gets a glance from his parents. Is that progress?
At least I won't get beaten up anymore.
Tang Xianfang read his thoughts from the expression on his face, glanced silently at An'an, and said with a determined look, "I hope my daughter doesn't end up like you!"
Useless man—
Chang Rihui scurried around under the table. When he saw several more people appearing in front of him, he clung to them like a lifeline and shouted, "Mom, someone's here! We can't wash our dirty linen in public!"
Zhou Hongyu had to stop what she was doing. Chang Meiying saw An'an before her and immediately dropped her half-eaten breakfast and ran over.
Chang Meiying, though small, was quite precocious: "An'an, I haven't seen you all night, let your auntie see if you've grown taller? Aren't you happy you don't have to go to school today? I'm so happy..."
Chang Meiying took An'an's hand and ran to find toys to play with. As for the breakfast that she particularly disliked today, she finally found a legitimate excuse to throw it aside.
Chang Rihui crawled out from under the table in pain.
Chang Pengfei smiled and reached out to pull him, brushing the dust off his clothes: "Rihui, well done! As expected of an overseas student and a financial genius, you entertained your family on your second day back home!"
Tsk! They should have attacked earlier!
Zhou Hongyu raised her hand and slapped Chang Pengfei on the shoulder, saying sternly, "Don't think you'll get away with this!"
"An'an said you enrolled her in classes after school? You're asking for it!"
The silly son can be left aside, but the adorable granddaughter who makes your heart flutter must be seen every week.
Chang Pengfei rubbed his shoulder and said to himself, "Mom, I'm planning to raise An'an to be our family's second, third... well, in short, our An'an will also study abroad in the future!"
Chang Shuying graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts and went to Japan to pursue a graduate degree, where she lived with Zhou Liangyu and her daughter.
Chang Meiying's abilities are unknown, but she has never been a disappointment; at the very least, she'll be an international student.
Chang Pengfei hopes that his daughter can learn from the more outstanding people in the family, fly to a wider sky, and that only by enduring hardship can one rise above others. He did the right thing!
