Liu Ziqi sarcastically mocked Lin Yan. “Making a comeback? Honestly, isn’t it me who should be
worried about her comeback? But I’m not worried at all, because my sister
doesn’t care to come back and compete with us, which domestic film and music
awards hasn’t she won already? Why do I suspect that you’re the one who wants
to make the headlines? You’re such a scheming girl!”
– Meanwhile, at the Ye Family –
Xu Cheng was drinking tea with many of the elderly in the courtyard.
Old Master Ye glanced at Xu Cheng and snorted, “You think I can’t see what’s going on in the entertainment industry? You brought your wife here, but you don’t want her to meet us? How long are you going to keep hiding her?”
Xu Cheng took a sip of tea. “You guys are all nearly a hundred years old, there’s a generation gap between you guys. I don’t want my wife to be indoctrinated with any messed-up thoughts by you guys.”
“What kind of excuses are these?” Old Master Ye glared at him. “You’re our grandson, shouldn’t your wife come over to serve tea and meet us? What, is she not your real wife you’re keeping out there?” Old Master Ye tried to provoke him.
Xu Cheng placed his teacup on the table hard and said, “What are you talking about? Xue is my rightful wife! A monogamous wife! You guys want to fight me, right? Come, come, don’t make excuses with this. All you need to say is just one word, and the five of you can come at me together. I gained a lot of experience this time and I think I can drag all of you up to the sky to take a plane.”
The five elderly: “…”
Old Master Ye patted the back of Xu Cheng’s head. “I’m not joking with you, bring her over here to take a look, that’s seven years of marriage! You’ve been hiding it pretty deep.”
“Deep what? You didn’t know? I could hide it from the press but not from you,” Xu Cheng said.
Old Master Ye: “I don’t care. You’ve been here for two days, where are you hiding her?”
Xu Cheng said, “She went to arrange the wedding and such for Aunt Lan. It’s her first marriage, and there is no one else who can help, so I asked my wife to go and give Aunt Lan some ideas.”
A few elderlies said, “You must bring her over to meet us later.”
Xu Cheng smacked his lips. “It’s not that I don’t want to, but I’m afraid that you guys will scare my wife. Anyway, she is just an ordinary person. You five, even if you don’t talk about your backgrounds, are all too old in age; who knows what you will ask to make her unable to answer.”
Old Master Ye snorted, “I’m telling you, if she hadn’t given up on continuing to be a celebrity, we really wouldn’t want to meet her. However, since she was willing to give that up and be your wife, we know that she is a smart person. At least I’m sure she knows how to talk better than you, you’re just a rock! It’s no fun talking to you, okay?”
Xu Cheng disdainfully said, “That’s because you guys can’t beat me, if you could beat me, you would have brainwashed me to be a good boy long ago.”
All of them: “…”
Old Master Ye sighed. “That would have been for your own good you little prick! Can you be a little dumber?”
