Ding Weiwei cried loudly and kept hiding.
"Mom, I'm carrying your grandson!"
"It's better that she miscarried, she's a jinx!"
Xu Lihua was exhausted and covered in sweat, but she didn't stop!
"You little bitch, you jinx!"
Lu Chengyi was out with a group of friends when he got home to find his mother trembling with anger, brutally beating Ding Weiwei.
He frowned, walked over impatiently, and pulled Ding Weiwei up from the ground.
“Cheng Yi…”
Ding Weiwei blushed, looking as if she was about to cry, and appeared pitiful.
"I was wrong, please ask Mom not to hit me. I did it for the family, for you..."
Xu Lihua took a deep breath in anger. What terrible things had she done?!
Since Tang Li left this family and her son came back, the family has been in complete chaos!
Xu Lihua gritted her teeth and said, "Chengyi, I used to hope you could have a son, but now I've thought it through. There are so many socialites and noblewomen in Beijing who are lining up to have your child. Why do you have to marry a slut like her!"
"mom!"
Lu Chengyi didn't want his mother to be like a shrew at home all day, crying and howling like a banshee.
Xu Lihua snorted coldly and got up angrily to leave.
"Let me tell you, in this family, it's either me or her, it's either me or her!"
Ding Weiwei felt waves of burning pain all over her body, and hearing these words intensified her unease.
She needs to find a way to secure her position.
Otherwise, Xu Lihua would definitely use any means necessary to drive her out.
Last time, she overheard Xu Lihua chatting with her best friend, and even considered introducing her best friend's daughter to Lu Chengyi.
That old, wicked woman!
Ding Weiwei nestled in Lu Chengyi's arms, carefully holding his chest, enduring the pain, "Chengyi, you're all I have left. You promised me when you were in the village that you would never leave me."
Looking at her pitiful appearance, Lu Chengyi felt a pang of pity, after all, she was his savior.
Moreover, they did have a very happy three years by the sea.
If you really want to count, Ding Weiwei should be the only woman who fell in love with him not because of his status or position.
When he was stranded in a small fishing village by the sea, he had nothing.
Ding Weiwei saved him and gave him love and care.
Lu Chengyi comforted her, saying, "It's alright, my mom was just angry for a moment, she'll be fine once she calms down."
“But we can’t go on like this forever, Mom still doesn’t approve of me.”
Ding Weiwei said, lowering her eyes pitifully.
Lu Chengyi, however, read a different meaning in her words.
He asked, "So what are your thoughts?"
Ding Weiwei thought for a moment, hesitated for a while, and then spoke.
“Chengyi, I also want to start my own business and open a jewelry design studio.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Chengyi laughed.
Ding Weiwei barely even has a junior high school education, yet she runs a jewelry studio. Isn't that just making a fool of herself?
"You just graduated from junior high school, where did you get your skills from?"
Ding Weiwei felt a pang of resentment; she knew that Lu Chengyi looked down on her academic background.
She gently tugged at Lu Chengyi's collar. "Chengyi, believe me. I may not be good, but I have a childhood friend who studied jewelry design abroad. She's very talented. Don't you want to beat Tang Li?"
Defeating Tang Li is too tempting.
Every time Lu Chengyi sees Tang Li and his uncle living such a successful life, he gets insanely jealous.
That woman was clearly kicked out of his house; she was a discarded piece of trash he didn't want. Why is she still living a comfortable and easy life?
Looking at my own life, it's a complete mess.
Are you sure it can work?
Ding Weiwei said firmly, "You can look up Vivian online. She's a famous designer."
Lu Chengyi thought for a moment and looked into the designer that Ding Weiwei mentioned, Vivian.
She is indeed quite famous, but her representative works are all from a few years ago.
"Has she not had any representative works in the past two years?"
Ding Weiwei stammered, she didn't quite understand either.
However, everyone in the village says that Ding Xiaofen is shrewd, clever, and resourceful!
"There are too many wealthy people asking her to do personalized services now, she's probably too busy to handle them all."
Lu Chengyi thought for a moment and then asked her, "So, how much money do you need to invest?"
"It will cost at least... 100 million."
When Ding Weiwei mentioned the number, Lu Chengyi was startled and quickly took two steps back.
"Weiwei, you're kidding me! I don't have that much money!"
If it were only a few hundred thousand, that would be fine.
She made an outrageous demand, asking for a hundred million.
Ding Weiwei wasn't annoyed at all, and patiently tried to persuade her.
“Chengyi, these investments are small. Think about it, Tang Li charged me two million for a single set of blueprints. The profit is astonishing.”
"Once you start earning money, you'll be confident you can surpass your uncle!"
Not only could he get revenge on Tang Li, but he could also surpass his uncle. Lu Chengyi's heart was even more moved.
“What you said makes sense. I need to have my own business and can’t be controlled by my uncle for the rest of my life. However, this studio has to be registered in my name.”
Doesn't the studio she worked so hard to get belong to her?
Ding Weiwei was a little unhappy.
"Chengyi, we're husband and wife now."
Lu Chengyi became shrewd at this point.
“It’s different. If I asked my mom to give you a hundred million, she definitely wouldn’t agree.”
Ding Weiwei had no choice but to compromise and demand that she also invest in the company.
"Chengyi, we've been together for years, can't you just give me some peace of mind?"
Lu Chengyi pursed his lips and reluctantly agreed.
He had a vague feeling that Ding Weiwei also cared about money.
Soon, Vivian was welcomed back to China by Ding Weiwei.
She initially looked down on Ding Weiwei, but after learning about the identity of Ding Weiwei's husband, Vivian was convinced.
It really proves the saying: it's better to marry well than to work hard.
Ding Weiwei made the decision hastily without conducting any market research.
To demonstrate her strong initiative, the Microlight Studio was established in just one week.
As luck would have it, Weiguang Studio is right across from Tang Li's studio.
Tang Li didn't think much of it; it's common for competitors to emerge in the industry.
This company, however, seemed excessively arrogant, having put up a conspicuous banner right across from their own store.
A black Audi stopped in front of the Weiguang Studio across the street.
When the short-haired woman with exquisite makeup and high heels stepped out of the car, Tang Li narrowed her eyes slightly.
This woman looks so familiar.
As the woman got closer, she finally recognized who it was.
"Ding Xiaofen, is that you?"
When someone suddenly called her by that old, corny name, it felt like all those unpleasant memories of the past had been dug up and laid out on the table, which made Vivian very unhappy.
She corrected him, saying, "Tang Li, remember this, my name now is Vivian, not Ding Xiaofen."
What's the difference between Ding Xiaofen and Vivian?
Isn't she still herself?
