On the way to the 4S car dealership, Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at the scenery outside the car and suddenly asked with a hint of melancholy, “Yan Wei, do you know that you’re not supposed to have intercourse during the early stages of pregnancy?”
As a result, even though Yan Wei hadn’t thought about whether or not to engage in such matters, he was still greatly taken aback when explicitly informed: “Who said that?”
“The doctor!” Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at him with an expression of “innocence” and said, “The first three months are unstable; we need to protect the baby.”
Yan Wei: “…” I never intended to, what do you mean by saying that?
Zhou Qiaoqiao then lowered her head and gently touched her flat belly, asking, “Do you think it’s a baby boy or a baby girl?”
Yan Wei thought for a moment and replied, “Either is fine.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao further inquired, “Do you like baby boys?”
In Yan Wei’s mind, he remembered what Zhen Guoan had said: the first rule in dealing with women’s questions is to never say you prefer boys in front of them.

Yan Wei’s face showed a serious contemplation. How should he answer this question? He somewhat felt like he was lifting a stone to smash his own foot.
“Yan Wei?” Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at Yan Wei with a puzzled expression.
Yan Wei looked ahead and then earnestly said to Zhou Qiaoqiao, “I’m driving, please don’t talk to me. It distracts me.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao touched her belly, sounding a bit melancholic, “Do you find me annoying?”
Yan Wei: “…Qiaoqiao, can I ask a question?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao blinked her big eyes and replied, “Sure!”
“Did the doctor mention that pregnant women are more sensitive?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao thought about the numerous doctors she had spoken to and shook her head definitively, “No!”
Yan Wei chuckled inwardly, only finding out today that his wife, after becoming pregnant, seemed as sensitive as Lin Daiyu.2Lin Daiyu a principal character in the Chinese novel “Dream of the Red Chamber” .
“Can we go to the Bentley 4S dealership that Guoan recommended?” Yan Wei decided to keep changing the subject.
Zhou Qiaoqiao nodded, her cuteness resembling that of a little squirrel, and said, “I don’t know much about cars, so of course we can.”
Yan Wei wasn’t very particular about cars. Mainly because he had returned the previous car to Yan Ye, and he didn’t share Zhen Guoan’s interest in collecting cars in a full underground garage.
So, when he returned the car, he found himself without a vehicle to drive, which became quite a joke Zhen Guoan could tease him about.
However, Yan Wei wasn’t upset or bothered by it. If he didn’t have one, he could just buy it, right?
Therefore, under Zhen Guoan’s recommendation, Yan Wei directly decided to head to the Bentley 4S dealership.
The service at the dealership was top-notch. As Yan Wei and Zhou Qiaoqiao entered, the warm air greeted them. Yan Wei held her hand, and in the spacious showroom, several luxurious Bentley models were displayed that Zhou Qiaoqiao could tell were not cheap.
A salesperson quickly approached them as they entered. The salesperson was a young man wearing stylish glasses, dressed in a suit, with neat and tidy short hair. He smiled and said to Yan Wei, “Welcome, customers. What type of car are you interested in?”
“Do you have any recommended models?” Yan Wei scanned around and asked.
The young man smiled and inquired, “I’m not sure what price range you’re considering, sir.”
Price range? Yan Wei felt that Qiaoqiao’s comfort was what mattered, so he said, “My wife is pregnant. Find something suitable based on that condition.”
The young man immediately recognized that Yan Wei was no ordinary person. With no further requirements other than suiting the needs of a pregnant woman, he began, “The interior of the Mulsanne’s model is top-notch…”
As he spoke, the young man led Yan Wei and Zhou Qiaoqiao to take a look. The moment the car door opened, Zhou Qiaoqiao felt a rush of luxury.
The young man continued, “Even for the rear seats, there’s ample legroom that won’t cause any discomfort for the lady. This model is equipped with Bluetooth communication, satellite navigation, touchscreen, multimedia system, and other premium features. It’s designed with precision, balancing fashion and personality.”
The young man passionately presented the features, yet he noticed that Yan Wei had no particular expression. He assumed that maybe the car’s introduction was too expensive. So, he added a couple of sentences, attempting to switch to another model recommendation: “This particular car is upholstered in top-grade leather, with precious peach wood accents. There’s no need to worry about air quality for the lady, considering her pregnancy. If you don’t like this one, you can consider the Tanyue…”
“This one will do!”
Surprisingly, against the young man’s expectations, this distinguished-looking gentleman actually… made a decision right away???
“Huh?” The young man was momentarily surprised.
Yan Wei frowned, and the young man quickly put on a delighted expression, saying, “Alright, alright, I understand, sir. This way, please. Sir, are you looking for the Ultimate Edition or the Standard Edition?”
Leading Yan Wei away while still glancing at the cars, he replied, “The Ultimate Edition.”
The young man’s expression grew even happier. He guided Yan Wei to the guest area, hurriedly served premium tea, and then informed Yan Wei, “Please wait a moment, sir. I’ll go finalize the contract.”
As the young man left, Zhou Qiaoqiao, who had been standing confidently, suddenly curled up, tugging at the corner of Yan Wei’s clothes, and softly asked him, “Is this expensive?”
Yan Wei thought for a moment and said, “It’s cheaper than the one Yan Ye gave us.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao made a distorted face, “How can you compare it to 14 million RMB?”
Yan Wei chuckled and asked, “Then what do you consider expensive?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao pondered for a while, thinking that a million would be a luxury car! But then she realized Yan Wei’s financial status, touched her belly, and thought about the heir to a multi-million fortune growing within her.
With this perspective, did 14 million seem reasonable?
Furthermore, Zhou Qiaoqiao considered her own pitiful 600,000 RMB in the bank, which she had thrown into Jiamin’s account to earn interest. She felt quite pathetic.
“Sir, would you like to opt for financing?” The young man brought the contract over and was prepared to persuade Yan Wei to finance the purchase.
Zhou Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but chuckle and said, “Yan Wei, do you want to finance?”
Upon hearing this, the young man grew even more elated and said, “I have some recommendations for financing options…”
“I don’t need to.” Yan Wei glanced at Zhou Qiaoqiao, gave a helpless smile, and patted her head, saying, “Don’t tease. Are you tired?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao shook her head. Yan Wei was quick in picking the car, and the subsequent processes were swift too. He left the registration and insurance matters to the dealership.
After they left the 4S dealership, Zhou Qiaoqiao was in disbelief when she finally realized, “That car costs over 6 million?”
Yan Wei nodded, saying, “Yes.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao lowered her head again, feeling ashamed, and said, “I’m ashamed that there isn’t even that amount in my bank account.”
Yan Wei turned to look at her and saw her expression of shame. He smiled in a good mood and asked her, “What if you had more than that amount? Would you be willing to contribute?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at him incredulously and said, “How can you say such a thing?”
Yan Wei replied, “Why not? Aren’t we husband and wife?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao gestured with both hands and asked, “Shouldn’t you be saying, ‘What’s mine is yours, and what’s yours is yours?'”
Yan Wei laughed heartily and asked, “Where did you learn that?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao pouted, “…”
Yan Wei chuckled and asked, “So, am I fitting the role of the male lead in your drama?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao thought for a moment and said, “No.”
Yan Wei’s expression turned slightly displeased, “Why?” Even though he didn’t consider himself extraordinary, he didn’t think he was that bad either.
Zhou Qiaoqiao struggled to explain, “Because… you’re the male lead’s older brother.” The difference between the role of the male lead and his brother was too vast.
Yan Wei: “…” What on earth?
Two days later, Zhou Qiaoqiao finally discovered that Shi Suoya… had fallen from the sky.
Being busy for two days, Zhou Qiaoqiao hadn’t been online, and it felt like the world had changed.
She quickly took out her phone to search online. Lying on Yan Wei’s leg, she sipped the freshly squeezed nutritious fruit juice he had bought for her, and she asked Yan Wei, “Can you believe that Shi Suoya was so violent? Is the person in the video her assistant?”
Yan Wei was completely uninterested in Shi Suoya. He was currently detailing the wedding arrangements to Tong Geng, instructing him before turning back to Zhou Qiaoqiao and answering in a perfunctory manner, “Probably.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao continued, “On the day she poured water on me, I saw her assistant beside her. It’s the same person.”
The voice of Yan Wei and Tong Geng conversing halted, and Yan Wei turned to look at Zhou Qiaoqiao, asking, “She poured water on you?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao nodded and said, “She splashed water on me… hahaha… I retaliated by splashing coffee on her.”
Yan Wei: “…”
Since Zhou Qiaoqiao had already taken revenge, there wasn’t much more to retaliate. After all, that woman didn’t have much more to lose.
After finishing the juice, Zhou Qiaoqiao lay down on Yan Wei’s lap, gently touching her belly, and said, “I feel sorry for her.”
Yan Wei chuckled coldly and replied, “She doesn’t deserve pity.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao continued, “I heard she put in a lot of effort for her acting.”
“No matter how hard someone works, they can become too arrogant. And sometimes, the one who ruins all their efforts is themselves.” Yan Wei still didn’t sympathize with Shi Suoya. He viewed her as the woman who schemed with Fei Yufei to harm Zhou Qiaoqiao. She had never considered what Zhou Qiaoqiao might lose.
Since she wanted to take away Zhou Qiaoqiao’s career, he would take away hers. That’s the only way to balance the scale.
As for Fei Yufei? No problem, the direction of the stocks had just begun!
“Deep Palace has changed its leading actress, and it’s now Shang Lingtong.” Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at the new information, quite astonished. “The world really changes a lot!”
After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Qiaoqiao sighed and said, “In the end, everything that belongs to Shan Lingtong has returned to her. I hope she will have a good future! Sigh…”
Zhou Qiaoqiao touched her belly again, now being a mother herself, she could understand the pain Shan Lingtong must have felt back then.
Yan Wei’s lips curled into a smile as he said, “Yes, we’ve paid off everything we needed to.”
This could be seen as a lesson for Shang Qiwen while also giving Shan Lingtong a chance!
“Yan Wei, when did we set our wedding date?” After finishing her juice, Zhou Qiaoqiao started to eat walnuts.
Seeing Zhou Qiaoqiao getting up to fetch walnuts, Yan Wei took the nutcracker and began to shell the walnuts for her. At the same time, he replied, “On the third day of the first lunar month. Everyone will be on holiday, and work hasn’t started yet. People have mostly finished exchanging New Year’s greetings. Most importantly, it’s an auspicious day.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qiaoqiao immediately sent a message in her WeChat group, saying, “Comrades, this little one has decided to get married on the third day of the first lunar month. I invite all the fairies in this group to attend the wedding. Any takers?”
Although she said “this group,” it was actually a group of four, the one formed by Zhou Qiaoqiao’s university dorm mates.
The first to respond was Ren Qing, who was quite surprised. She asked, “Weren’t you short on funds for the wedding? Min bao bao said you found a down-and-out wealthy guy. Is your relationship going well?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes and retorted, “What do you mean by down-and-out wealthy guy? My Wei Wei is definitely a king.”
Yu Beibei also chimed in, saying, “Oh, a king now? Is the king giving Little Qingqing a plane ticket?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao scoffed and immediately used voice messaging to reply, “I’ve told you, His Royal Highness not only provides plane tickets but also round-trip tickets, and even includes hotel accommodations. Quick, kneel down and call him daddy!”
Ren Qing burst into laughter and responded, “That’s great. It just saved me the cost of flying back to my home country for the New Year. Tell your royal highness to buy me two tickets.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao turned her head to Yan Wei, looking a bit wronged, and said, “Wei Wei, she wants you to buy her plane tickets.”
Yan Wei smiled at her, then reached over and took her phone. He pressed the voice message button, and his deep voice transmitted through the phone to the other three.
He said, “Buying.”
Immediately, the group chat was flooded with hearts and peach-shaped emojis from Yu Beibei and Ren Qing.
Zhou Qiaoqiao felt quite proud! She looked at the voice message and declared, “My Wei Wei said he’ll buy them! Hmph!”
Yu Beibei also laughed and said, “Look at you, acting all stingy. Your husband is generous, what’s it got to do with you?”
“What do you mean it’s got nothing to do with me?” Zhou Qiaoqiao protested, “We’re a unit.”
Ren Qing chimed in as well, “Min bao said your husband was a down-and-out wealthy guy, but it seems he’s turned into a frog prince now. Well, then I’ll obey your command! Come on, smash me with red envelopes!”
Zhou Qiaoqiao replied, “Who’s getting married? Giving you red envelopes? Dream on, I’m not giving any.”
Ren Qing chuckled, “Stingy.”
Seeing Zhou Qiaoqiao having a cheerful conversation with her friends, Yan Wei put down his phone and leaned against the couch, looking at Zhou Qiaoqiao.
At this moment, the radiance on Zhou Qiaoqiao’s face was exceptionally bright. Ah, his Qiaoqiao! So adorable.
Having friends with whom she could chat like this was fortunate, especially considering the hardships she had endured in her life. They were there to accompany her.
Lately, Zhou Yingjie was feeling very frustrated. Business at the factory wasn’t going well, and the money invested in expansion had all gone to waste. Suddenly, he was burdened with debt of tens of thousands, and his monthly income was barely reaching ten thousand. Life had become quite constrained for him.
Moreover, Zhou Xingxing’s expenses at university were quite high now.
Thus, Zhou Yingjie discussed with Lin Meisu, “You think you could talk to Xingxing? Have her learn from her older sister and start earning her own living expenses?”
Lin Meisu could hardly believe her husband’s words and asked, “Zhou Yingjie, what did you just say?”
Zhou Yingjie was frustrated too! He was broke! He explained, “Let Xingxing earn her own living expenses. I’ll cover her tuition fees for the next semester, otherwise she won’t even have tuition.”
Lin Meisu stood up with a gasp and said, “Is that what you call speaking like a human? How old is Xingxing?”
Zhou Yingjie was baffled and said, “She’s 18! Qiaoqiao started earning her own living expenses when she was 18 and in her first year of college, didn’t she?”3What comes around goes around!
Lin Meisu: “…”
Zhou Yingjie remembered Lin Meisu’s words and confidently said, “It was you who told me, children grow up, they should figure out how to support themselves. I think that makes sense! Xingxing is also grown up, she’s 18 now. With the current situation at home not being great, it’s time for her to be more responsible and earn her own living expenses. I heard she’s not that stressed about her studies in college, so she can work part-time in her spare time. If it weren’t for Xingxing being a bit spoiled, she’d have to earn her own tuition for next semester too!”
Lin Meisu: “…”
Seeing Lin Meisu’s distressed expression, Zhou Yingjie furrowed his brows and asked, “What’s wrong? What’s the problem with this?”
Lin Meisu forced a smile, thinking about her sweet daughter having to support herself through her exciting college years by working. It was heartbreaking.
Thus, Lin Meisu softened her voice and said, “How can Xingxing be compared to Qiaoqiao? Qiaoqiao has her abilities, she’s capable. But Xingxing is just a naive girl. Look at the world outside, even in the same business, some people make a lot of money, while others make very little. Can everyone be the same?”
Under normal circumstances, Zhou Yingjie might have accepted this. But Lin Meisu had hit a sore point today with the example she brought up. It was a direct blow to his self-esteem. He immediately felt like he was being attacked from all sides and confronted her loudly, “What do you mean? Are you saying I’m incapable and can’t make money anymore?”
Only then did Lin Meisu realize she had touched a nerve. She endured his scolding for a while, and then tearfully said, “Isn’t it just that I care about Xingxing? You men haven’t experienced the pain of childbirth, so you don’t understand, but I do. Has Xingxing ever suffered in her life? Why make her go through all this hardship when she grows up?”
Zhou Yingjie was driven to exasperation by her tears, and he furrowed his brows even more. He retorted, “What do you mean by ‘hardship’? Is this what you call subjecting Xingxing to hardship? Then did we also we treat Qiaoqiao harshly in the past?”
Lin Meisu: “…” Suddenly, Lin Meisu felt like she had stepped on a landmine.
Zhou Yingjie was so stressed that his hair was falling out. He said, “The economy is bad now. Xingxing needs 3000 yuan for her living expenses every month. She has various expenses in her class all the time. And Xiong Xiong, he’s 21 now. He just graduated and got into real estate sales, but he hasn’t sold a single property yet. They’re eating us out of house and home. The factory is starting to run at a loss every month, and we’re about to start dipping into our savings. As children grow up, we have to make them work hard on their own! Isn’t this what you used to tell me?”
Lin Meisu felt like she had crossed into an alternate reality and thought about finding a different reason to justify her past self’s actions.
After pondering for a while, Lin Meisu felt that her stubborn husband was unlikely to change his perspective. So, she decided to redirect his focus: “Husband, doesn’t Qiaoqiao’s boyfriend have money?”
Zhou Yingjie looked at her in disbelief, “I can’t even get her money, and now you want me to ask her boyfriend for it?”
Lin Meisu gave him a stern look and said, “Instead of approaching Qiaoqiao directly, why don’t we go to her boyfriend? We raised her all these years, it’s only normal to ask for some money, right? Besides, they’ve even gotten married now. Have you seen Qiaoqiao contribute a single cent to our family?”
Zhou Yingjie waved his hand in frustration, “And you dare to say it! Whose fault is it that we’ve fallen out with Qiaoqiao? If she had worked for a few years and saved up a couple of thousand yuan, I’d let it be. How can you compete with her? And threaten her? Look at our father-daughter relationship now, it’s so strained. Besides, it’s not that simple. Why would someone give money to their girlfriend’s parents? Are you naive?”
With that, Zhou Yingjie stormed out of the room.
Right at this moment, Zhou Qiaoqiao’s phone call came in. Seeing that it was Zhou Qiaoqiao, Zhou Yingjie answered the call and asked, “Hello, Qiaoqiao! Do you even remember to call your dad?”
Glancing at the caller ID, Zhou Qiaoqiao calmly said, “I’ll hang up.”
“Wait, wait… wait, I haven’t said anything yet!” Zhou Yingjie immediately grew anxious.
With a deadpan expression, Zhou Qiaoqiao coolly asked, “Do you still want to talk properly?”
Zhou Yingjie grumbled in frustration, “I’ve raised you for so long, can’t you speak politely?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao retorted, “Are you trying to start an argument?”
Zhou Yingjie: “…”
Seeing that Zhou Yingjie had finally calmed down a bit, Zhou Qiaoqiao spoke, “I have something to tell you.”
Sitting down on the sofa, Zhou Yingjie patted his belly and said, “Go ahead!”
“I’m planning to have the wedding next month,” Zhou Qiaoqiao said straightforwardly.
Zhou Yingjie was taken aback, then immediately slapped his thigh and exclaimed, “Great! How much is the bridal gift?”
“What about your dowry?” Zhou Qiaoqiao squinted at him and asked.
Zhou Yingjie was caught off guard by the question and retorted, “Why are you trying to divert the topic?”
“Joke,” Zhou Qiaoqiao taunted, “I never diverted it in the first place.”
Zhou Yingjie: “…”
“The wedding is scheduled for January 27th according to the new calendar. Are you coming or not?” Zhou Qiaoqiao’s tone was nonchalant.
Zhou Yingjie replied, “What kind of question is that? I’m your dad, of course, I’ll come!”
Without addressing his previous question, Zhou Yingjie asked her, “When is your boyfriend coming home again?”
Zhou Qiaoqiao frowned and said, “Coming home? No need, he already visited before.”
“What are you saying? You’re getting married, can’t I have a proper conversation with my future son-in-law?” Zhou Yingjie felt that his fatherly status was being disrespected.
Unfortunately, after this statement, Zhou Qiaoqiao’s phone call abruptly ended.
Zhou Yingjie: “…”
Seeing that Zhou Qiaoqiao had hung up, Yan Wei rubbed her head without saying a word. Zhou Qiaoqiao leaned against him and said angrily, “He actually wanted a share of my bridal gift, how delusional.”
Yan Wei nodded, and Zhou Qiaoqiao suddenly froze, asking, “But don’t our families usually meet for the exchange of bridal gifts and dowry?”
Yan Wei chuckled and said, “No need. We can do it in a way we like.”
Zhou Qiaoqiao acknowledged and took out her phone to call Bai Shuren, her uncle.
Bai Shuren was playing with his grandson, Bai Zihui, and he answered Zhou Qiaoqiao’s call in a good mood.
Zhou Qiaoqiao dropped a bomb on him right from the start, “Uncle, I’m getting married next month on the 27th.”
Bai Shuren was taken aback and asked, “With whom?”
With a playful laugh, Zhou Qiaoqiao said, “Of course, it’s with Yan Wei! Uncle, you’ve met him before!”
After his initial shock, Bai Shuren immediately accepted the news, chatted briefly with Zhou Qiaoqiao, and hung up.
Bai Shuren’s wife, Li Li, asked him, “Qiaoqiao is getting married?”
Bai Shuren nodded and said, “Yes, and they’re saying she’s also pregnant.”
Li Li couldn’t believe it and said, “That’s reckless.”
Bai Shuren frowned disapprovingly at her, and Li Li quickly fell silent.
Bai Shuren sighed and said, “Qiaoqiao and Yan Wei are already registered, they’re legally married. Look at your daughter, Huimin, she’s practically living together with Tianhao, and he hasn’t shown any intention to propose yet.”
Li Li, after being scolded, kept quiet, then became annoyed and said, “Why don’t you talk to Huimin? She’s almost 25. If Tianhao doesn’t come to propose soon, is he planning to drag our Huimin into her late twenties?”
Bai Shuren gave her a stern look and said, “Talk to her, let her be more determined. Why follow that Tian Tianhao? If Tianhao doesn’t propose, should we beg him to marry our daughter? Does that guarantee her a good life?”
Li Li, not an educated person, naturally couldn’t argue with Bai Shuren.

I actually like Qiaoqiao’s maternal uncle and male cousin. They’re nice people.
Sometimes YW reminds me of the ML from Shan Shan Comes to Eat (drama: Boss and Me). Both are wealthy homebodies with playboy best friends and straightforward, younger accountant wives that they like to watch eat. They also don’t look down on their girl’s less wealthy families and friends, but always try to show them respect. Of course, YW is better at leading ZQQ in situations she’s not accustomed to and communicating in general than cold Feng Teng, lol. But the laidback playfulness of both couples is just so enjoyable.
I love Shan Shan too. It’s one of my first cnovels. I think the only similarity between the two is the eating part. Feng Teng is too black-bellied for me.
I think YW just doesn’t show his black belly to his wife. We don’t see it because we don’t see him at work. I’m guessing he’s plenty tricky. I think the lack of work details was a big plus for me. Sometimes, I just don’t need my romance padded out with 40 chapters worth of office drama and intrigue! So I’m really grateful we didn’t have to go to work with our main characters.
Are you kidding me? Feng Teng is delusional lol he thought Shan Shan was in love with him so he “tolerated” her, and treated her like some kind of accessory to stroke his ego.
To say I dislike him is an understatement 🤭
Wait a sec….. did his rolls royce just disappear???? When he was talking about which car to bring when moving it seemed like he had like a lottttt of cars…???
It wasn’t his car. It was his friend’s car. He only had 1 car, the one that his brother gave him. He’s a very simple, low-key guy that’s why nobody in his family even thought that he’s richer than them.
Talk about delusional, ZQQ’s father and (even more) his wife are quite delusional.
Everytime they needed money, they asked it from ZQQ–who’s evidently earned barely enough to live–while they earned tens times (maybe hundred times) more than her. Or, they simply exploited her as much as they could, as long as she’s barely alive. Oh, remembering how they ignored her everytime she’s hospitalized and almost died at the last accident, they could even exploited her out of her life. But, this Lin Li has the audacity to ask “Have you seen Qiaoqiao contribute a single cent to our family?”
