Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

For Liu Ruyan, Lin Mo was already at his limit just taking care of her. How could he possibly have the mind to care about whether another woman had gained or lost weight? Impossible!

Ms. Zhao Yun really wanted to tell Liu Ruyan, "That's not necessarily true," but she thought better of it, since it wasn't appropriate to make such a joke.

The three of them rested at home, while Yuan Hua arranged for someone to take Lü Hao to the hospital.

Does he have a problem with Lin Mo? Of course he does, after all, today is his wedding day, but he is more annoyed with his own judgment in choosing a friend.

He's not some stupid rich kid with a lower IQ, how could he not see that the main reason for today's incident lies with his friend?
But it was precisely because these two people had a good relationship with him that he had some issues with Lin Mo. After all, there are degrees of closeness among friends. Just like the relationship between Lin Mo and Yuan Hua, the relationship between Yuan Hua and Lin Mo was just so-so, or even non-existent.

The relationship between the two parties mainly stems from the bonds between family members, so it's natural that some disagreements would arise after such an incident.

Otherwise, he would have had security personnel throw Lü Hao and Gao Mingkai out of the wedding if he had been there. To cause trouble at my wedding is to look down on me, or even to treat me as an enemy.

But the current situation is that he is torn between a friend who is actively causing trouble and a guest who is in the right and has a good relationship with his family.

As time passed, the wedding banquet at the villa came to a complete end, all the guests left, and the Yuan family returned to their villa.

Of course, the Yuan family villa was very lively this time. Miss Yuan's maternal grandparents and paternal grandparents were all there, as well as some close relatives. It's just that the villa is big, otherwise there wouldn't be enough room for everyone.

Of course, the three elderly people were unaware of the little incident that occurred after the wedding. If such a small matter could cause them so much trouble, then their children would be utterly incompetent.

By this time, the Yuan family had put this little incident aside; no one mentioned it, at least not today, and they acted as if nothing had happened.

Only the best man and bridesmaids, a few young people, would occasionally gather together for a casual chat, while waiting for the wedding night pranks to subside.

As for the accommodations for the best man and maid of honor, the Yuan family has made arrangements, providing a one-stop service. After all, they are good friends of the newlyweds, and the couple had already made the arrangements.

Meanwhile, at 5 PM, at Lin Mo's residence.

"Alright, it's already this late. It seems like everything's alright. In that case, I'll go upstairs and get some rest. I woke up in the early hours of the morning to pick up the bride, and I have to go to work tomorrow. I'm going back to sleep now," Zhao Yun said, standing up and yawning.

Even though it wasn't her wedding, as a relative, she was exhausted. Not to mention anything else, just the morning pick-up ceremony alone required her to get up early and get sleep-deprived. Even if she were a police officer, she couldn't handle it!

The reason I've stayed with him until now is simply because I'm afraid he'll call the police and they'll come to my door.

But it has been three hours since they came back. Three hours is not a long time, but if you called the police, they would have arrived long ago.

Now, not only have the police not come to the door, but they haven't even made a phone call, which means that the other party really did not call the police, just as Lin Mo said.

If no one reports the incident today, the probability of reporting it tomorrow is less than 10%, or even less than 5%.

After all, a whole day has passed before you call the police. Who knows what might have happened to you in the meantime?

"I told you it would be no problem, don't worry, Sister Yun. Come down for a chat sometime when you have time, I'll treat you to a meal," Lin Mo said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're quite proud of yourself, aren't you? Come on, why don't you hit your older sister and see if I dare to call the police!"

In response, Zhao Yun, who had just put on her shoes, couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't do that. If you want to hit someone, wait until I'm gone. I'm afraid he'll slap you all he wants. That would be so perverted!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan blushed.

"Get lost! I'm not that weird!"

"Who knows? I'm off to bed. Oh, by the way, Xiaolin, could you urge your classmate to pay more attention to that blind date? After all, there are quite a few older single men in our bureau."

"You're a guy too, you should know that when a group of older, unmarried men get together without anyone to care about, it's easy for some brilliant ideas to emerge!" Zhao Yun glanced at Liu Ruyan and then cautioned him.

Lin Mo nodded in response: "No problem, I'll have them hurry up!"

"Then I'll thank you on behalf of all the single guys in our bureau. I'm off!" With that, Zhao Yun waved and went out to the elevator.

Zhao Yun went upstairs to rest, and Lin Mo and the other person then returned to the sofa and sat down.

Why are you looking at me like that?

As soon as he sat down, Lin Mo noticed that Liu Ruyan was staring straight at him, and couldn't help but ask.

Liu Ruyan: "I'm curious, why are you so sure they won't dare to call the police?"

Lin Mo paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "I'm not sure, I've already threatened them. If they call the police, my actions will only get me in jail for two days at most. But if I get out, their family won't be able to do business anymore. Do you really think I'm a good-tempered man?"

Although he knew what had happened, he couldn't say it, so he could only bring up the fate of the Qin and Huang families again.

But the effect was very good. Liu Ruyan nodded: "That's true. My little brother is really capable. Alright, go take a shower. I'll reward you later."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's eyes widened immediately: "No, no, it's still daylight outside!"

It's not like winter anymore; it gets dark by 5 p.m. now. The sun is still high in the sky outside!
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him: "So what? Can't you close the curtains? Hurry up and stop talking nonsense!" With that, she gave him a push.

Lin Mo:
He now seriously suspects that Liu Ruyan didn't want to reward him; she wanted to reward herself.

That night, Lin Mo and Liu Ruyan reached their peak strength and sank Zhongzhou.

Chuanmei and the others worked tirelessly in the studio until after 10 p.m. before finally dragging their exhausted bodies home to rest, preparing to update the latest video the next afternoon.

Ms. Zhao Yun upstairs was sleeping soundly; she was too tired. Her cousin, Su He, in the city, was staying up all night watching a TV series. She was enjoying the bliss of working one day and resting six days a week and felt extremely happy.

Zhang Wei heard about what happened at the wedding after he left in the group chat, and he was slapping himself in the face: "Why the hell did I leave so early? God, you're really something!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky outside the window, followed by a deafening rumble of thunder.

That's right, spring has arrived, and it's started raining—the first rain after the New Year.

Instantly, Zhang Wei was so frightened that he knelt on the bed: "God, I was just joking, please don't take it to heart!"

As for Miss Yuan, she was currently making a ruckus in the bridal chamber with a flushed face.

"Drink! Drink! Drink! Bro, either give me a red envelope, or drink the soy sauce and lemon juice I made myself, or I'm not leaving tonight!"

Now that she finally had a legitimate reason to take advantage of her brother, she certainly wasn't going to let it go.

Feng Xue sat on the bed, watching everyone's merriment, and covered her mouth to chuckle.

Although there was a small mishap at the end of today's wedding, it had nothing to do with her, since it wasn't the bridesmaids' turn to have an accident. In fact, she felt a little relieved.

Before she married into the family, her mother had already told her to mind her own business. She said that Yuan Hua was the one who called the shots in this family, and her parents-in-law were there to support her. She should just be a good daughter-in-law and not try to interfere in family matters. When it was time for her to take charge, she would naturally be able to.

It must be said that Feng Xue's mother is a sensible person.

Many women, especially those who marry into higher social classes, don't understand this principle. Even though their families are quite ordinary and they've already married into higher social classes, they still want to be the boss of the family after marriage. They want their husbands to listen to them, and even their parents-in-law to listen to them. Such women are clearly not very intelligent.

Even if she were given the opportunity to marry into a higher social class, she wouldn't be able to seize it.

Take the Yuan family for example. Their business is so big, how could you, a mere daughter-in-law, possibly control them?
Even if you're pregnant, you can still get a divorce anytime if you don't know your place, since Old Yuan is still the head of the household.

When Comrade Lao Yuan can no longer work, or doesn't want to work anymore, and retires, that's when the two of them can work together again.

In the end, Yuan Hua paid a huge price to finally coax Miss Yuan away.

Drizzle

The rain started falling at some point, but it rained all night.

The next morning, Lin Mo got up and went to the living room, rubbing his aching back, and found that it was still drizzling outside.

It wasn't heavy rain, but it wasn't light either; it was moderate rain. I casually opened the window, and instantly, a gust of cold wind blew in.

The temperature had just warmed up a bit, but with this rain, it dropped quite a bit again.

Looking at the rain falling and the misty scene outside, he instantly lost the idea of ​​going out for his morning exercise.

It's the weekend, and my girlfriend doesn't have to go to work, so let's gather around the stove and brew some tea.

He didn't make breakfast today. Liu Ruyan said she was going to sleep in.

At 10:30 a.m., Liu Ruyan came out of the bedroom in her pajamas.

"Oh, it's raining! How nice! Little brother, you have quite the refined taste. Are you brewing tea around the stove?" Liu Ruyan looked at the small stove and saw that besides dried fruit and fresh fruit, there were also grilled sausages and fish balls, and couldn't help but say speechlessly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but smile: "We're having a new style of tea brewing around a stove. I was thinking of getting some meat skewers, but there's too much smoke. Want some?"

Liu Ruyan:
"You call this barbecue, okay? And this 'new-style fireside tea brewing' sounds nice, but do you want me to replace your tea with beer?"

Indeed, brewing tea is secondary; the main thing is to gather around the stove. As for what's being roasted on it, that's none of your concern.

"Anyway, this is just tea brewed around a fire. Would you like some?"

"Drink, of course we'll drink! I'll go get the sausage grill machine, hehe!"

After saying that, Liu Ruyan happily went to get her equipment.
