Chapter 62 After Marriage
Lunch was ready in the kitchen, and the family sat down at the dining table. Lin Su took out his treasured wine collection and asked his brother-in-law, "Mingshi, instead of drinking baijiu, how about some of my red wine?"
Zhou Mingshi smiled and asked Lin Yi'an, "May I drink?"
Lin Yi'an: "You're asking me?"
Zhou Mingshi calmly hummed in agreement: "Do you agree?"
Lin Yi'an whispered to him, "Big brother has collected all the good wines. You'll make a profit if you drink them."
Zhou Mingshi laughed: "For a businessman, not making a profit is a loss. It seems we have to drink this wine."
Lin Hang joked, "An'an just had her wedding with Mingshi, and she's already siding with outsiders? Teaming up with Mingshi to screw over her own brother?"
Zhou Mingshi: "Not outside."
Lin Hang: "What do you mean 'not outside'?"
Zhou Mingshi explained slowly, "I received your red envelopes when I married Yi'an. I'm your younger brother, family. How could I be an outsider?"
Upon hearing his brother-in-law's words, Lin Su felt refreshed and generously replied, "Drink as much as you like. If you want any wine in the future that we don't have at home, just come to my wine cabinet."
Zhou Mingshi: "Thank you, brother."
"..." Lin Hang looked at his brother-in-law: "It seems that you have won over my older brother. I remember that you were the same age and were rivals in school. You called him 'older brother' quite smoothly."
Zhou Mingshi said, "You're younger than me, so it's easy for me to call you 'Second Brother'."
Lin Hang: "Who's the lawyer between us? I don't think I can win an argument with you."
Lin Manqing smiled and said, "Mingshi is in the school's debate club. He has never lost a debate competition he has participated in. Of course, that's just a small matter. As a leader of a company, how can you talk business with people if you don't have some eloquence?"
Zhou Mingshi didn't forget to flatter him: "That's because your older brother and sister weren't there."
The young people were chatting and laughing, and Lin Shuhe, watching from the side, was grinning from ear to ear.
Thinking of his daughter who was all alone when she was little, and now has so many older brothers and sisters who love her, and has found such an excellent son-in-law, he would wake up laughing in his dreams.
After lunch, since it was still early, the two went back to their room for a nap.
This was the first time Zhou Mingshi had entered Lin Yi'an's boudoir.
Lin Yi'an noticed that the corners of his eyes were red: "Would you like some hangover soup?"
Zhou Mingshi pulled her to sit down on the edge of the bed: "I only drank a little wine, I'm fine."
Lin Yi-an: "Do you blush easily when you drink?"
Zhou Mingshi: "Hmm, lie down with me for a while?"
Lin Yi'an: "Okay."
The two took a nap and woke up around three o'clock. Zhou Mingshi looked at his watch and said, "No rush, the time is just right to go from here."
Before leaving, Zhou Mingshi said to the elders in the room, "Come back for dinner tonight after you've finished your business."
Lin Zhenting said, "You should go and do what you need to do."
After the young couple left, Grandma He Huizhi teased, "Now we can rest assured. Our grandson-in-law is shameless. He doesn't stand on ceremony with his wife's family and acts like he's part of the Lin family."
Grandma Lin Yongzhen said with a smile, "Once you're married, you're family. That's good."
Wang Yuehua and Liu Zhengying also thought it was good. The son-in-law and the wife's family were too distant. How could they be like a family?
Assistant Chen sat in the driver's seat, puzzled as to why they needed to see a feng shui master.
Although he didn't understand, and since his boss didn't explain, he naturally wouldn't ask.
Upon arriving at the location, the two took the elevator upstairs. Looking at the crooked signboard above, Assistant Chen wondered, "This place seems a bit unreliable."
Zhou Mingshi: "Let's talk inside."
After saying that, he took Lin Yi'an's hand and walked inside.
Just as I was about to enter, someone inside called out, "Come in directly."
The two exchanged a glance, and Zhou Mingshi turned to Assistant Chen and said, "Wait outside."
The two walked in and saw an elderly man in his seventies with a long beard and an air of otherworldly wisdom. His eyes were somewhat cloudy, and his gaze fell on Lin Yi'an: "Is it you who has something to say? Sit down and talk."
Hearing this, Lin Yi'an felt relieved and sat down with Zhou Mingshi.
Lin Yi'an slowly began, "I've been having the same dream for the past two days, in which..."
After hearing this, the old man said, "Look at your hands."
The two women held out their hands for him to see. After he looked at them, he said, "You are both people of strong character. A dream is just a dream because it is illusory and doesn't exist. It won't affect you, but you must beware of malicious people causing trouble..."
Lin Yi-an: "But why do people I've never met appear in my dreams, and then I encounter them in reality?"
The old man said, "You may have seen it, but you didn't notice. Go back and check with the people around you; perhaps you'll find the answer."
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "I've finished watching, you can leave now. As for the fee, you can decide what to pay."
Zhou Mingshi paid the bill, and the two walked out. Lin Yi'an asked, "Do you think there are really some mysterious things in this world that we don't know about?"
Zhou Mingshi: "Now that we've encountered something strange, we can only choose to believe it for now and check the people around us."
Lin Yi'an said, "How about we start by investigating Zhou Mingyuan's family?"
Zhou Mingshi looked at her and said, "The people around you who hate you the most are Sun Yurong and Zhou Mingyuan. Everyone around them and everyone who has been in contact with them should be investigated."
Zhou Mingshi: "You're right. The fact that Sun Yurong was able to enter the Zhou family and live with the old man under the watchful eyes of her grandparents for so many years is enough to demonstrate her character and ability."
After saying that, he asked again, "Just now with the master, you said that the person in your dream appeared in reality? Have you met that person?"
Lin Yi'an hadn't expected him to be so perceptive, and paused for a moment: "I saw her helping my third brother's wife yesterday..."
Zhou Mingshi's expression hardened slightly: "So you want me to investigate the people around Zhou Mingyuan?"
Lin Yi'an nodded.
Zhou Mingshi held her hand: "Don't worry!"
That evening, after returning home and washing up, the two lay in bed. Zhou Mingshi said, "That master said dreams are illusions and don't exist, so let's just treat them as false. As for what he said about villains causing trouble, I've already arranged for someone to investigate."
"What we should be worried about now is Changping's wedding in three days."
Lin Yi'an: "Mm."
Zhou Mingshi: "After the wedding, where would you like to go?"
Lin Yi-an: "Many people get sick in the spring. Dr. Li and Dr. Xiong complained to me that they were too busy and asked me when I would go back to work. They said they would wait until things were less busy."
Zhou Mingshi: "Okay, we have to go back to Changping tomorrow, so go to bed early."
After saying that, he put his arm around her.
Lin Yi-an said, "We've done it these past few days, do we need to do it again today?"
Zhou Mingshi paused: "...You don't want to?"
Lin Yi'an nodded: "From a health perspective, sexual activity should not be too frequent. We should control it, for example, three or two times a week?"
Zhou Mingshi: "Some of them are deadly."
Lin Yi-an: "You're still enjoying it, so it's a little difficult for you to control yourself, but you'll get used to it."
Zhou Mingshi gently kissed her lips. Did she need to get used to this?
Are you used to controlling yourself? No, I don't want to.
Lin Yi-an: "It's not about moderation..."
Zhou Mingshi: "We'll talk about it next time."
Lin Yi'an: "......"
Next door, Zhou Kanghui was playing a game when he received a call from Tan Qingwen.
He quickly closed the game and answered her call: "Tan Qingwen, what's up?"
Sun Yurong watched coldly from the side, her expression turning gloomy.
Ever since He Xishan found out how her mother-in-law got into the family, she has paid special attention to her, and she saw her mother-in-law's expression change and a mocking smile appear on her face.
Tan Qingwen said over there, "We're going to Changping tomorrow. Make sure you have everything you need to prepare. Don't let anything go wrong and make Mingshi and An'an look bad."
Zhou Kanghui: "I followed your arrangements the whole time, what could possibly go wrong?"
Tan Qingwen: "Alright, then you should obediently follow our arrangements. As the father, you can't help with other things when your son is having a wedding, but you should provide the necessary resources. There aren't many decorations in Changping, so collect some of your antiques and decorations and take them to Changping so they can display them in their rooms."
Zhou Kanghui: "You're still eyeing my meager possessions? They won't even look at them tomorrow..."
Tan Qingwen interrupted him: "How do you know Mingshi won't like it if you don't give it to him? If you know he won't like something inferior, you can't just pick something expensive and good for him. Don't you understand this? What kind of father are you?"
Zhou Kanghui said impatiently, "Fine, fine, I know. Anyway, I only have those things, and they're not of any use to me. Just give them to him."
Of course, the main reason was that he knew he couldn't win an argument with Tan Qingwen and would eventually be persuaded by her, so he might as well agree to her sooner so he could go play games.
