As soon as Xiong Lin opened his eyes, he saw Yueyue standing at the door looking into the house.
Yueyue saw Xiong Lin open his eyes and ran in from the door with a smile: "Dad, I knew you were faking it. Dad, aren't I smart?"
After saying that, Yueyue jumped onto Xiong Lin's body: "Dad, your face is so funny."
Xiong Lin was filled with regret. He thought, "Why didn't I open my eyes even a crack to peek first?" "Yueyue, Daddy really feels dizzy. Go and call your mother back. Daddy will buy you a flowery schoolbag."
Yueyue hugged Xiong Lin's neck: "Dad, don't lie to me. I won't fall for it. Besides, all our money is with Mom. Even if you wanted to buy me a flower schoolbag, you wouldn't have the money."
Xiong Lin choked for a moment.
Then, the father and daughter stared at each other blankly.
The little bear saw Yueyue sitting on Xionglin's lap, so it climbed up Xionglin's leg and into Yueyue's arms.
On the other side, Ugly Girl led Insect Ling to her own room: "Sister Ling, please sit down first, I'll go get you a glass of water."
“No need.” After sitting down, Chong Ling looked at Chou Gu and said, “Ever since the policy changed, my husband has been wanting to start a business. I was afraid he would lose money, so I didn’t agree. Now I’ve thought it through. If he wants to do it, let him do it.”
Ugly Girl's smile froze when she heard that Chong Ling was willing to let Xiong Lin do business. She knew perfectly well that Xiong Lin wanted to break up with Chong Ling precisely because Chong Ling wouldn't let him do business. If Chong Ling agreed, what chance would she have?
Seeing that Ugly Girl's expression had changed, Chong Ling asked, "Ugly Girl, what's wrong? Are you sick?"
"No." Ugly Girl quickly adjusted her expression. "I'm just a little surprised. Sister Ling, how did you come to that conclusion?"
Chong Ling smiled and said, "I've been with my husband for so many years and raised two kids. I know my husband's personality very well. Even though he's been a father for so many years, he's still like a child. He insists on having what he wants. If you don't give it to him, he'll throw a tantrum. But if someone says, 'I'll give it to you, come with me,' my silly man will definitely come running after them."
Ugly Girl felt increasingly uneasy as she listened. But since Chong Ling hadn't brought it up, she couldn't just rush to admit that she was the one standing next to the couple. Not only could she not admit it, she also had to keep smiling.
Chong Ling looked at Chou Gu and said, "Tell me, would I let someone else kidnap my stupid husband?"
If it weren't for the fact that she had been doing business outside for several years, Ugly Girl wouldn't have been able to maintain her smile: "No."
Chong Ling stared at Ugly Girl and said, "Right? I can't let anyone take advantage of this. So, I agreed. As soon as I agreed, my silly husband immediately told my daughter, 'Daughter, your mother has agreed to let your father go into business. When you get married, your father will definitely prepare a generous dowry for you.'"
At this point, Chong Ling covered her mouth and laughed: "He's already talking about preparing a generous dowry for his daughter before even starting the business. Don't you think my silly husband is like a child?"
Ugly Girl smiled and said, "Mm."
Chong Ling smiled and said, "However, I'm quite happy to hear that he's going to prepare a generous dowry for my daughter. Although my silly husband might not be able to do it, his intention is enough. I've also figured it out: money can be earned back. But if my daughter gets kidnapped, who will earn a dowry for her? Don't you think so?"
"Yes." Ugly Aunt wanted to get Chong Ling away as soon as possible. If Chong Ling didn't leave soon, her face would freeze. "Sister Ling, did you come to see me today for something? If not, let's talk another day. I have something to do here..." Ugly Aunt wanted to say: I have something to do here, so I can't chat with you anymore.
But before she could finish speaking, Chong Ling interrupted her: "I have something to say. I know you're a busy person. I'm here today to ask you for advice. Isn't my silly husband going to start a business? I'm asking you, what should you pay attention to when starting a business? What kind of business is good to do now?"
Ugly Girl thought to herself: "Are you here to learn from me? Or are you here to show off?" Ugly Girl inwardly vomited blood. "Sister Ling, what advice do I have? I'm just feeling my way across the river."
Chong Ling frowned in confusion: "Then why did I hear my silly husband say that you often talk to him about business?"
Ugly Girl didn't know if Xiong Lin had said it, but regardless, she couldn't admit it now. "Not often, just occasionally we'd run into each other and chat for a bit."
"Yeah?"
"Um."
Chong Ling smiled and said, "Then why don't you chat with me for a bit now?"
Ugly Girl thought to herself: "You come here to show off, fine, but you want me to teach you how to do business? Dream on!" "No, no. You used to forbid Brother Bear from doing business, that's why I dared to tell him how. Now that Brother Bear really wants to do business, I won't dare say anything carelessly. What if Brother Bear loses money doing what I say?"
Chong Ling knew that Ugly Girl wouldn't tell her how to do business. "That's true. Alright. I won't make things difficult for you."
Ugly Girl thought to herself: Now that you've finished showing off, get lost.
Just as Ugly Girl finished thinking, Chong Ling said, "You used to share so much business wisdom with my silly husband. I really need to thank you."
Ugly Girl quickly said, "No need. I really didn't say anything to Brother Xiong." Ugly Girl felt that Chong Ling must know about him and Xiong Lin. Otherwise, she wouldn't have said those things earlier. Since she knew, then this "thank you"...
Just as Ugly Girl thought of this, Chong Ling took a small black insect out of her pocket. "Use it. Even though what you said might not make my silly husband any money, what if he does?"
Ugly Girl jumped up from the stool. After standing up, she took several steps back: "Sister Ling... I... I really... really didn't say anything to Brother Xiong."
Ugly Girl knew that Chong Ling could raise Gu (a type of poisonous insect). But she planned to take over after Xiong Lin and Chong Ling had a falling out over business. That way, even if Chong Ling was angry, it would be directed at Xiong Lin. Even if Chong Ling caused trouble for her because she was with Xiong Lin, she could push Xiong Lin to the front to take the blame. If Chong Ling insisted on making things difficult for her, she would still appear to be in the right. She didn't expect Cong Lin to understand this so quickly.
Chongling walked towards Chougu with the insect in her hand.
Ugly Girl took a few steps back. "Ling Da, I... I really didn't say anything to Brother Xiong?"
Chong Ling smiled at Chou Gu: "Look at you. You're being modest, aren't you? Your Brother Xiong said you're quite the expert when it comes to business. You know I'm not very capable. All I know is raising insects. So, I picked one for you from my collection. When a woman does business out there, she's bound to encounter thugs and hooligans. Let me tell you, this little insect is incredibly powerful. Just let it drink a sip of your blood every day, and it will help you deal with those thugs and hooligans."
Chong Ling took two more steps toward Chou: "Here you go."
