Yang Tianbao was stunned by the sound of the door closing.
He stared blankly at the door, unable to come to his senses for a long time.
What brought him here?
Let me think about it first.
Oh right, I remember now.
He came to borrow money from his third sister today, but not only did he not get the money, he was also severely ridiculed by her.
Also, he wanted to use this as an excuse to persuade her to live a good life with Zhou Mingjie.
But now, she has turned the tables on him.
Anyway, his current mood is... well, it's hard to describe.
To make a living, he scratched his head in frustration at the thought.
Suddenly, I feel like the person I spent so much effort to win over isn't so appealing anymore.
Thinking of those four words, he felt that this relationship wasn't necessarily something he had to pursue.
Seeing that the door was tightly closed, he had no choice but to leave.
Under a big tree on the street, a young girl was eagerly waiting.
As soon as she saw him coming over, she waved to him and said, "Tianbao, let's go to the clothing store!"
I'd heard from others that the store had just received a new batch of clothes, and the styles were really nice.
Didn't you say I looked good in a dress? Buy me a couple today, and I'll wear them for you.
Yang Tianbao grinned, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, but the smile looked bitter no matter how you looked at it.
"Xiaoya, you're so pretty, you'd look good even if you wore a burlap sack."
To be honest, you don't necessarily need to buy a dress; you look quite nice in this outfit too.
Tian Xiaoya's face darkened; she wasn't easily fooled. "Tell me, do you not want to buy me new clothes?"
“How could that be? You can’t buy happiness with money. As long as you’re happy, what’s a few dollars?” Yang Tianbao said without hesitation.
Tian Xiaoya nodded in satisfaction and was about to walk into the clothing store. "Okay, let's go in!"
Yang Tianbao grabbed her arm. "Um... Xiaoya, let's not go today."
I'd like to treat you to dinner at Siyuan Restaurant today.
He had already figured this out on the way.
He doesn't have a single penny on him right now, and if he goes to a clothing store, he'll be exposed on the spot.
But going to Siyuan Hotel is different; Zhou Mingjie is very familiar with that place.
Since he's now Zhou Mingjie's brother-in-law, he figured that using Zhou Mingjie's name to set up a debt shouldn't be a big problem.
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Yang Tianbao raised his stakes, "I heard that Siyuan Restaurant recently added two new signature dishes, they're delicious."
Let's go try it too.
As for buying clothes, you can buy them anytime.
Even if this batch sells out, can the store stop ordering new stock?
"Maybe the new styles will be even better than this batch!"
Hearing this, Tian Xiaoya was tempted. Indeed, clothes are never finished; who knows, the next batch might be even better.
"Okay, let's not buy anything today. Let's go to Siyuan Restaurant for dinner first."
Yang Tianbao breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and got through this ordeal.
But soon he started to worry again: what should he do in the future?
We can't keep coaxing them every day, can we?
Moreover, if Zhou Mingjie comes back and finds out that he's using his name to gain benefits, he'll most likely take action against him.
The phrase "to support my family and make a living" kept swirling in his mind.
The sweet words he had spoken to Tian Xiaoya and the wishes he had made for her kept replaying in his mind.
He always felt that his heart was beating a little... too fast.
He cautiously probed, "Xiaoya, why don't you go find a job? Playing around all day must be pretty boring."
He thought that if all else failed, he could just ask Zhou Mingjie for help to find a job for his brother-in-law's girlfriend, his future sister-in-law. That should be... not a big problem, right?
Tian Xiaoya refused outright, "I just go shopping, buy clothes, and eat out all the time. It's great, how could I be bored?"
She chose Yang Tianbao because he boasted that he could make money and that he would provide her with a life of comfort and security after they got married.
That's right, the two have reached the point of discussing marriage.
Upon hearing his words, Tian Xiaoya seemed to sense something, turned her head, and looked at him with displeasure.
"Yang Tianbao, you said before that as long as I'm with you, you'll work hard to earn a lot of money and take good care of me."
Don't tell me you were just teasing me with those words?
Upon seeing her gaze, Yang Tianbao immediately cowered and shook his head vigorously, "How could that be? I was just worried you'd be bored, that's why I suggested you find someone in your class."
If you don't like it, that's fine. Do you think I'll take away your money?
Let me tell you, my brother-in-law is a big businessman.
From now on, even a little bit of food peeking out from between his fingers will be enough to ensure we have plenty to eat and use.
"Yang Tianbao, you'd better believe it's true."
"If I find out you dare to lie to me, I'll make you suffer a terrible death." Her eyes swept over him, the warning in them clear.
"How could I? I would never lie to you. How about I take my heart out and show it to you?" Yang Tianbao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
This time it was real sweating, not just light sweating.
He knew that Tian Xiaoya's words just now were not meant to intimidate him.
The entire Tian family were butchers.
The family had three sons in a row before finally having a daughter, Tian Xiaoya.
The butcher's family doted on this old girl.
Therefore, they raised their only daughter to be fair-skinned and beautiful, so much so that she was no less beautiful than the girls in the city.
