Chapter 48: Is It Like Marrying Far Away?



After the He family's hype, the change of ownership of the Zhen family went extremely smoothly. Zhen Linye sat in the Zhen family's living room, watching the news reports with a calm expression.

After the report was over, he even cooked a meal for himself, and his whole state seemed to have entered a state of idle retirement in advance.

But the calmer he was, the more uneasy Zhen Mozhao felt.

"Brother Zhao, if you ask me, don't overthink it. Maybe Zhen Linye's trump card is just to plant a seed of uneasiness in your heart."

In order to celebrate Zhen Mozhao's complete departure from the Zhen family, Zuo Linyu was the first one who couldn't sit still and immediately took Mu Shaojin to make an appointment with Zhen Mozhao.

He put the shrimp into his mouth after he finished speaking. The next second, his eyes widened and he exclaimed in surprise: "This shrimp is delicious!"

Hearing what he said, Baili Xiyao silently picked up his chopsticks and reached for the plate of shrimps, picked up a few pieces and put them into Zhen Mozhao's bowl.

"Maybe," Zhen Mozhao replied calmly, picked up the dishes in the bowl that were almost piled up like a mountain and started eating. He said helplessly to Baili Xiyao, "Xixi, that's enough." He would feel full if he ate any more.

Okay~

Baili Xiyao stopped feeding the food as instructed and started eating his own food. He seemed to have no interest in the issue of Zhen Linye that the others were discussing.

"By the way, Brother Zhao, have you really changed your last name?"

"Not yet. My cousin told me that he consulted a fortune teller and tomorrow is the auspicious day. He told me to go and register my household registration and change my last name tomorrow."

Speaking of this, Zhen Mozhao was really at the same point of laughing and crying. Originally, changing one's surname was not a big deal, he could just go there when he had time. But since the last time they met, this cousin who took his aunt's surname has been running to his office almost every day, under the pretext of enhancing brotherly love, but in fact, he just wanted him to join his entertainment company and become a star.

"Cousin?" Zuo Linyu didn't react for a moment, wondering who he was talking about.

"Chu Lichen," Mu Shaojin interrupted to clear up his confusion, while taking the wet wipes on the table and putting them next to Zuo Linyu, frowning as he watched his hands covered in red oil from peeling crayfish.

"Chu Lichen is really good! He can make Brother Zhao call him cousin so quickly," Zuo Linyu exclaimed.

"Scoundrel!" Baili Xiyao suddenly spoke, scolding with disdain.

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

Zhen Mozhao smiled and picked up a piece of shrimp for Baili Xiyao before replying, "He's been coming to my place every day lately, saying that Zhen's is gone and he's worried that I'll be bored, so he's pestering me to work as an artist in his company."

"Puff~", Zuo Linyu spat out a mouthful of water and almost choked.

After recovering from the shock, he laughed heartily and said, "Isn't it possible that he is acting as a talent scout and wants to recruit you, Zhao Ge, to work for him? Doesn't he know that without Zhen's, you still have YM? Even without YM, you still can't be free, right?"

"YM has Sister Shuyan, so I don't have to worry about anything. I also plan to find a professional manager to take care of the rest."

"?"

"Want to take a rest?" Mu Shaojin asked Zhen Mozhao while lifting Zuo Linyu's sleeve.

"Yeah," Zhen Mozhao responded, then looked at Baili Xiyao and said proudly, "Xixi said she would support me~"

Baili Xiyao heard this and nodded in response.

When the two looked at each other, there were always some invisible pink bubbles floating around them, which made them feel sick.

"Oh! Another mouthful of dog food for no apparent reason," Zuo Linyu angrily cleaned up the crayfish in the bowl. "I really didn't expect that Brother Zhao would be in such a state after falling in love."

Then he turned to look at Mu Shaojin and said, "Brother Jin, you can't learn this from Brother Zhao, it's too disgusting."

Mu Shaojin: "..."

"Brother Jin, why don't you speak? Are you the same as me?" Zuo Linyu, completely forgetting that his hands were covered in red oil, was about to put his hand on Mu Shaojin's shoulder, intending to persuade him.

Seeing this, Mu Shaojin quickly dodged and threw a sterilized wet towel into his hand, "Dirty."

Zuo Linyu looked at his hands, then at the pile of crayfish shells in front of him, and fell silent.

I can't keep this hand anymore. It might feel like this for the next few days...

With this interruption, Zuo Linyu immediately forgot about the previous question and quickly got up and went to the bathroom. Mu Shaojin sighed helplessly and followed him.

In the private room, Baili Xiyao and Zhen Mozhao were the only ones left.

"Baby wants to find a professional manager. Besides wanting to rest, he probably also wants to have some free time so he can come back and see his friends anytime."

"Hmm," Zhen Mozhao smiled, but there was no joy in his eyes, "It's true that nothing can be hidden from Xixi."

"If you don't want to laugh, then don't laugh." Baili Xiyao wiped her hands with a wet towel before pinching the flesh on his cheeks. "It's not a life-and-death separation, baby, why are you so sad? At worst, when you want to see them, I'll have Xiao Rui tie them up and bring them to you."

"……", Xixi, have you always been so wild in your style of doing things?

"Okay, I was just kidding." Baili Xiyao laughed out loud when she saw his speechless look. "Baby, your trip to the imperial capital this time, does it feel like marrying far away?"

“…”, the more he spoke, the more he became confused. “I heard…”

"Huh?", what did you hear?

"I heard that few women who marry far away have a good ending, so I have to think about it again," Zhen Mozhao looked at Baili Xiyao with wide eyes with a gloating look.

As a result, Baili Xiyao's focus was completely different. "Baby, have you agreed to marry into my Baili family?!"

"...", well, I jumped into the pit myself...

"Huh? Brother Zhao, you want to marry into the family?" Zuo Linyu, who had just pushed the door open and walked in, widened his eyes and immediately grinned, "Marrying into the family is great. A top rich woman and her little darling husband, this title sounds good."

"......", a top rich woman and her little darling husband, it sounds like they are being kept as a mistress.

Baili Xiyao was laughing so hard in his heart that even his shoulders were shaking slightly. After a while, he couldn't hide the smile on his face, which made Zhen Mozhao even more depressed.

"Brother Zhao, what's wrong with you?" What's that expression? Why does his face look a little dark?

Mu Shaojin interrupted the latter sentence by covering his mouth. He looked at the clueless Zuo Linyu with a headache and asked, "Are you full?"

Zuo Linyu nodded.

"I'll take you back."

“???”, the nightlife hasn’t even started yet, why do we have to go back?

"You're tired"

"?!" What a joke! I'm a famous nightclub prince. How can I be tired at this hour?

Mu Shaojin covered Zuo Linyu's mouth and dragged him away.

"Are you still depressed?" Baili Xiyao poked the drooping corner of Zhen Mozhao's mouth and asked him with a smile.

Zhen Mozhao stared at Baili Xiyao dejectedly, "It's so hard to win over Xixi verbally," the second half of the sentence sounded like a deflated ball.

"I'll let you go next time?" Baili Xiyao's smile remained unchanged, and a sly glint flashed across her phoenix eyes. When Zhen Mozhao's dark eyes lit up, she said, "But baby, you have to prepare a 'sincere' thank you gift."

"..." Thinking of the 'sincere' thank you gift from last time, Zhen Mozhao's flawless white face turned red. But looking at Baili Xiyao, he didn't want to admit defeat, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "Do you want to make Xixi bleed from the nose again?"

“…”, shame! So damn shameful!
