Jiangzhen, He family.
“Yu Ling, I still feel something is wrong.” He Chusheng looked at He Yu Ling, who was trying on wedding dresses.
"Hmm? Chu Sheng, are you regretting it?" He Yuling stopped what she was doing and stared intently at He Chu Sheng.
"No, no, no, being with you forever is my lifelong wish." He Chusheng slowly embraced He Yuling, a flash of disdain crossing his eyes. "However, after we're married, your father will find out sooner or later, and then..."
"What's there to be afraid of? What can he do even if he finds out?" He Yuling's willful nature erupted as she returned. "I'm his daughter, and you're his adopted son. What's there to be afraid of?"
He Chusheng took a deep breath: "I think, maybe... maybe..."
"Chu Sheng, do you not want to marry me?" He Yuling asked again.
He Chusheng almost nodded, but he had to endure it for the sake of money. Unexpectedly, He Yuling gritted her teeth and said, "If he doesn't acknowledge me or you, then I'll poison him! This He family is mine, and it's yours too!"
He Chusheng immediately got goosebumps. He looked down at the woman nestled in his arms, and the shock in his eyes was quickly replaced by disgust.
"I think we should think about the long term."
"for example?"
"Let's pool our money and move to the provincial capital to develop our business."
"Can't you still forget that vixen?" He Yuling suddenly jumped up.
"No, absolutely not!" He Chusheng quickly swore an oath, and it took him a lot of effort to calm He Yuling down.
“Think about it, when we go to the provincial capital, we can do business. You’ve seen how prosperous the provincial capital is. Once we’ve made money and have a big, healthy son, when we come back, your father won’t be angry anymore.”
Seeing his sincere expression, a hint of expectation appeared in He Yuling's eyes.
After a moment, she nodded emphatically: "Okay!"
Because Old Master He left in a hurry, the house deed was still hidden in a secret compartment in his bedroom, a place known only to him and He Yuling.
The wealthy households in Jiangzhen got a bargain. He Yuling sold all her shops at a much lower price, which made them very happy. It wasn't that no one wanted to inform Old Master He, but since they had a good deal, no one wanted to cause trouble. Those who had this thought were suppressed by others.
After receiving the money, He Yuling hummed a tune she had learned from the opera house as she packed her things, dreaming of a wonderful life with He Chusheng in the provincial capital. She wanted to be a mistress of the house and then give that little bastard surnamed Qiu a good slap in the face!
That very night, He Chusheng attempted to abscond with the money, but He Yuling was also on guard. He was caught by He Yuling as soon as he stole the money.
"Where are you going?" He Yuling's eyes were full of sorrow.
Seeing this, He Chusheng stopped pretending: "What business is it of yours where I go! We have no relation! Let go!"
"So you're still thinking about going to see that bastard!" He Yuling went mad, but after a moment she pleaded, "Chu Sheng, don't go. If you go, take me with you. I'll go to the provincial capital with you to develop our careers, okay? We'll have a child together." Speaking of the child, she touched her belly, her face glowing with an unusual light.
"There's some news I was planning to tell you after we got married, but I'll tell you today."
"I'm pregnant."
He Chusheng's struggle paused for a few seconds, and he looked at He Yuling in disbelief.
"Chu Sheng, I can forgive you, as long as you stay with me."
