Shen Mingzhu simply uttered two words, which were like a basin of water that poured cold water over Pei Yang.

He lay on Shen Mingzhu with dissatisfaction and groaned, "I don't believe it, you must be lying to me."

"If you don't believe it, forget it."

Pei Yang looked up at her with a hopeful glimmer in his eyes, "Wife, you are not pregnant, are you?"

Shen Mingzhu smiled, "Are you dreaming before you even fall asleep?"

Pei Yang seemed not to hear her words. He was still immersed in his own beautiful fantasy, with his ear pressed against Shen Mingzhu's soft and flat belly.

"Let me listen. Maybe the little guy will say hello to me."

Shen Mingzhu looked up at the sky in silence.

She and Pei Yang have always had different opinions on whether to have a second child.

She was determined not to have a baby, but Pei Yang wanted to have another one very much. He would whisper in her ear every now and then, as annoying as Tang Monk chanting sutras.

"I can't hear you. I want to see."

Shen Mingzhu wondered: "What are you looking at?"

"Where did you hide the child?"

Shen Mingzhu held down the man's hand that was lifting her skirt, "Are you sick? Where did the child come from?"

"No? Then make one tonight..."

"Hey, stop it!"

"I'm not kidding, I'm serious."

…

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the ship carrying Shen Mingzhu and four others arrived safely at the port of Aocheng.

As soon as we left the port, a man in his thirties in a suit and tie came to greet us.

"Ms. Shen, I'm Ah Kuan, and I'm here to take you to the hotel on the orders of the Fourth Madam. The car is over there, please."

Following the man's gesture, I saw an extended white Lincoln parked quietly outside the port, with a handsome young man in charge of reception standing on each side of the car.

No matter in which era, such welcoming etiquette and standards are undoubtedly the best and a symbol of the upper class.

Zhou Shuhuan and Qiao Ya both looked at Shen Mingzhu, obviously curious and shocked that she had such extraordinary connections in Australia City.

Shen Mingzhu was actually also surprised. Li Shiman did not tell her in advance that she would send someone to pick her up. She never expected that the other party would use such a big ceremony. If someone didn't know, they would think she was an international VIP.

"Sorry, I need to make a call first."

Ah Kuan smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead."

Shen Mingzhu called Li Shiman and confirmed that the people and the car were sent by the other party before she took everyone into the car.

The extended carriage is spacious and comfortable, with luxurious interior and a full range of drinks and snacks, making it like a mini version of a reception room.

Not to mention the novelty and excitement of Pei Yang, Zhou Shuhuan and Qiao Ya, even Shen Mingzhu, who had lived two lifetimes, was enjoying such a courtesy for the first time and couldn't help feeling excited.

The car drove smoothly and evenly through the streets full of European style and soon stopped in front of a magnificent building that towered into the sky.

Thirty years later, such skyscrapers will be insignificant.

But at present, this is the tallest landmark building in the city of Macao and also the oldest and most luxurious five-star hotel.

The room that Li Shiman arranged for the four people was a luxurious suite second only to the presidential suite.

After sending the four people to the hotel and leaving their contact information, A Kuan left.

The service in a five-star hotel is very comprehensive, with dedicated staff to assist you from opening the door to checking in, taking your luggage and taking the elevator.

Australia is a relatively complex city, and this complexity is reflected in all aspects, including currency.

US dollars, Hong Kong dollars and Australian dollars are all accepted here.

After entering the room, Shen Mingzhu simply washed up and prepared to lie down and rest for a while. Qiao Ya came over from next door to borrow a sanitary napkin from her.

Shen Mingzhu did bring sanitary napkins, but her luggage was not packed yet and she didn't want to look for them, so she made the excuse that she had run out of them and asked Qiao Ya to go back to the room to order room service.

I thought Qiao Ya would leave, but she changed the subject and talked about something else.

"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to know such an important person in Australia City. The fourth lady sent a car to pick us up and arranged a five-star hotel. Brother Zhou and I are embarrassed. We want to treat the fourth lady to a simple meal to express our gratitude. Can you talk to the fourth lady and ask her to do us a favor?"

Shen Mingzhu really wanted to say: Your abacus beads hit me in the face.

"Since you've already settled down, just live there peacefully and don't think too much."

If you really feel embarrassed, you can just not move in. Since you didn't refuse at the beginning, what's the point of saying these things now? Seeing that her goal was not achieved, Qiao Ya simply got straight to the point, "Sister-in-law, are you going to have dinner with the Fourth Madam tonight? I wonder if it would be convenient for Fang to take me and Brother Zhou with you? It's a good opportunity for us to say thank you to the Fourth Madam."

"Sorry, that's inconvenient."

Perhaps she didn't expect Shen Mingzhu to refuse so decisively, the smile on Qiao Ya's face froze.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Pei Yang quickly spoke up to smooth things over, "Xiao Ya, we are not familiar with the Fourth Madam. We only met your sister-in-law once in Hong Kong City. I have never met her. This time we came here to thank her for saving our lives. It is hard to say whether she can find time to meet us."

"I see. That's fine."

Qiao Ya was also a smart person, so she took the opportunity to back down.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing her coming back in a depressed mood, Zhou Shuhuan casually expressed his concern.

Qiao Ya angrily recounted the whole story, and then complained about Shen Mingzhu's narrow-mindedness, "...When the couple came to Suicheng, we treated them to delicious food and drinks, and you even introduced the Third Young Master to her man, hoping to make a fortune with them. But she was so good that she held on to her good connections, as if she was afraid that we would snatch them from her."

Zhou Shuhuan had a different opinion on this matter. "Although the Fourth Madam arranged such a big event, she herself did not show up. What does this mean?"

Qiao Ya shook her head.

Zhou Shuhuan smiled indifferently, "It means she doesn't care about Brother Yang and Sister-in-law at all. This Fourth Madam is obviously a big shot with a big background. Sister-in-law and Brother Yang may not have a say in front of her. Even if she takes us there, what effect will it have?"

Qiao Ya suddenly realized, "That's right, Brother Zhou, you are still smart."

Zhou Shuhuan pinched her face. Her skin, which was rich in collagen, was plump, soft and elastic, and felt great.

Zhou Shuhuan's tone softened unconsciously, "You're not angry anymore, are you?"

"Um!"

"Go take a shower and change your clothes, we'll go out shopping later."

Qiao Ya happily hooked her arms around his neck, pouted her lips and said coquettishly, "Come and take a shower with me."

Zhou Shuhuan put out his cigarette, bent down, picked her up horizontally, and strode towards the bathroom amid Qiao Ya's sweet laughter.

next door.

After resting for half an hour, Shen Mingzhu got up, changed clothes and put on makeup, ready to go out.

Although it was only half past five, and there was still an hour and a half before the appointment with Li Shiman at seven o'clock, it was better to leave early to avoid being late due to traffic jams.

While waiting for the elevator, the couple met Zhou Shuhuan and Qiao Ya who were also going out.

Qiao Ya swept away her previous unhappiness and enthusiastically invited Shen Mingzhu, "Brother Zhou and I are going to the pier to try the local specialties, and then go to the entertainment city to play. If you finish early, come and play with us."

The entertainment city in Macau refers to the casino. (End of this chapter)
