"If you cared about me, you wouldn't have drugged me. If you truly cared about me, you wouldn't have let a woman do whatever she wanted to a man like me."
Yunming is a man who dares to fight against people, gods, and even the heavens. He can let Ji Xiaoxiao beat and bite him because he wants something from her, because he loves her, and it's only natural for him to indulge Ji Xiaoxiao. But he's not the courtesan who wins the highest bidder. If a woman with no feelings for him wants to lay a hand on him, she'll have to ask him for permission first.
"If you don't like Xiao Lan, Grandpa can find you a better one."
When Sun Zi spoke to him in a tone filled with grief and resentment, Shui Ran immediately felt flustered and wished she could offer all the women in the world to Yun Ming for him to choose from.
"I only like Chuyu, and I only want Chuyu," Yunming declared his determination.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoxiao felt much less resentful.
"Grandpa, why won't you let me be with Chuyu? What is it about Chuyu that I don't like?" Ji Xiaoxiao was happy, so Yunming pressed on.
Shui Ran glanced at Ji Xiaoxiao. Ji Xiaoxiao had rejuvenated, was young and beautiful, had a good figure, and possessed unpredictable powers, but he just didn't like her.
There was no reason; he just disliked... no, he loathed her.
Shui Ran had raised her grandson single-handedly. If Yunming wanted him dead, she would die without hesitation. Given this, which was more important: her own likes and dislikes, or her grandson's happiness?
Shui Ran did a lot of mental preparation for herself, and finally agreed to Yun Ming's request.
"What?" Yunming was dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.
Ji Xiaoxiao has a much better mental fortitude than Yunming. She happily assured Shui Ran that she would take good care of Yunming and would not let him go hungry or cold.
The woman in front of her was still as shameless as ever. Out of sight, out of mind, Shui Ran was too lazy to pay attention to her and went out for a walk to clear her head.
After that, the relationship between Ji Xiaoxiao and Yunming became increasingly harmonious.
In the blink of an eye, three months have passed.
"What brings you today?" Yunming asked Ji Xiaoxiao.
Ji Xiaoxiao lay on the sofa, watching the skit, and laughed loudly, "No."
Yunming's eyes darted around, and he pulled Ji Xiaoxiao away.
"Wait, I haven't changed my clothes or put on my shoes yet."
As soon as Ji Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she was pulled out of the Emerald Courtyard.
After a period of chaos, the two arrived at the XX Trade Building.
What are we doing here?
Thanks to Yunming, Ji Xiaoxiao is now considered a rich person. Isn't the lazy life of the rich just about having everything done for them?
Yunming smiled but said nothing, and pulled Ji Xiaoxiao into the jewelry section of the building.
Yunming's words and actions were strange. Ji Xiaoxiao watched quietly, waiting for the fox to show its tail.
Upon arriving at the jewelry store, Yunming tugged at Ji Xiaoxiao's sleeve, only to find that she remained motionless.
"What's wrong?" Yunming asked.
Ji Xiaoxiao pointed to one side, and Yunming saw several familiar figures.
Good son Hao Zhenran actually argued with Mo Wenqiu, Wu Huihua, and Hao Meini.
Ji Xiaoxiao hadn't been in contact with this family for a long time and was completely clueless. Yunming smiled and enthusiastically explained the reason to Ji Xiaoxiao.
It turns out that after Ji Xiaoxiao and Hao Zhenran divorced, Yunming couldn't bear to see Ji Xiaoxiao suffer, so he intentionally or unintentionally suppressed Hao Zhenran's company. Starting a business is easy, but maintaining it is difficult. Hao Zhenran lacked the ability and couldn't withstand Yunming's attacks for long; the company went bankrupt.
The company went bankrupt, leaving Hao Zhenran with a considerable debt. Not wanting to be mired in debt for the rest of his life, Hao Zhenran absconded with all the family's money, taking Wei Mi with him. Now, all the debts are borne by Hao Kaiyou alone. Mo Wenqiu and Wu Huihua, heartbroken for their grandchildren, unhesitatingly abandoned their good son Hao Zhenran and chose to stand by Hao Kaiyou's side.
"Hao Zhenran ran away, didn't he? How did they find him?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked, then immediately understood the reason. "It was you."
Yunming nodded and pulled Ji Xiaoxiao away.
Watching these people is a waste of time; it's mentally and physically exhausting.
The two arrived at the jewelry store they had booked. Yunming chatted mysteriously with the shop owner for a while, then carefully brought a box to Ji Xiaoxiao.
Ji Xiaoxiao was sitting in a chair when Yun Ming suddenly knelt down, startling her so much that she almost screamed.
Yunming slowly opened the box, revealing a dazzling ring inside.
"I love you, and I want to be with you forever," Yunming said affectionately.
Yunming suddenly stood up, leaned close to Ji Xiaoxiao's ear, and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, will you marry me?"
Ji Xiaoxiao glanced at the ring, then at Yunming, and finally nodded.
Yunming was moved to tears, but just as he was about to put the ring on Ji Xiaoxiao's finger, the girl sitting in the chair suddenly fell unconscious.
A day later, Mo Chuyu woke up.
Yunming glanced at him and immediately ordered his servants to throw him out. Shui Ran, having received the news, neither inquired nor stopped it, sitting blankly in the study like a puppet.
The phone rang.
"Hello."
The subordinate answered the phone and, after a moment, said, "Young Master, Lan Ruodie is pregnant."
---Aside---
