Chen Zhifeng's home.

The living room was brightly lit.

Huang Hui held her phone and repeatedly assured the person on the other end.

"Hey, cousin, don't worry!"

"My nephew has been smart since he was little, and he's also very handsome. Now he works for a big boss and he's doing very well!"

"Their bosses are practically giving away cars and houses, so how bad can it be?"

She praised Chen Qiu to the skies, as if he were the most outstanding young man in the world.

"Is Tingting only free the day after tomorrow?"

"Oh, it's alright, it's alright. He's a senior account manager, it's normal for him to be busy... Don't worry, my nephew has plenty of time, it's all good, it's all good."

The call was finally disconnected.

Chen Zhifeng, who was standing to the side, was puzzled.

"Is it really necessary to praise Chen Qiu so highly?"

"He's giving you a car and a house, and he's young and promising. Anyone who didn't know better would think you really like him."

Huang Hui gave a soft snort and put down her phone.

"What do you know?"

"If I don't exaggerate his merits, will he even agree to come on a blind date?"

Chen Zhifeng became even more curious.

"I've met your niece before; she is indeed beautiful. But are her standards really that high?"

"All you do is go to work all day, you never listen to anything else, what do you know?"

Huang Hui glanced at her husband sideways, her tone tinged with dissatisfaction.

Others might not know, but how could Huang Hui not know the ways her cousin's family behave?

The phrase "snobbish and materialistic" is practically ingrained in their very being.

Her niece was kept by a sugar daddy when she was in college.

The other party was an older man who was a few years older than her father.

If this happened in any other family, they would have been too ashamed to leave the house.

But what about their family? They weren't ashamed; on the contrary, they were proud.

They even climbed up the pole that the old man had been using.

We managed to acquire some resources for doing business from them.

Even after separating from that old man, her family managed to start a business using those resources.

I heard you can earn two or three hundred a year now!

She's become quite famous within her family circle.

Having had such an unusual experience, He Ting no longer looks up to ordinary young men who work honestly in ordinary families.

of course.

Huang Hui's enthusiastic praise of Chen Qiu in front of them wasn't really out of concern for Chen Qiu.

She just wanted that kid to experience some setbacks.

Let him suffer a great defeat!

Then she enjoyed watching other people make fools of themselves.

"Isn't it just good luck that you ran into a blind benefactor?"

"Does he really think he's someone important?"

Thinking about Chen Qiu's nonchalant and composed demeanor this afternoon, as if he had everything under control, she felt an overwhelming sense of unease.

Even now, she absolutely does not believe that Luo Jinglan and Chen Zhide could raise any outstanding son.

Absolutely, they've had incredible luck for generations!

Huang Hui knew it even better.

Young people, when they are just starting out, are often the most arrogant.

They feel they are omnipotent and that the whole world should revolve around them.

With her niece He Ting's looks and figure, which young man wouldn't be captivated by her?

Huang Hui was already impatient to see Chen Qiu get thoroughly beaten down and end up looking utterly humiliated.

……

"It's been so long since I've had homemade chicken soup..."

"It's so different from the outside world!"

The dinner table.

After eating and drinking his fill, Chen Qiu let out a satisfied sigh.

When I was young.

He hates drinking chicken soup the most.

For a considerable period of time, he stubbornly believed that drinking that stuff was no better than just mixing the seasoning packet from instant noodles with hot water!

But humans are such strange creatures.

They can't even empathize with themselves from the previous day.

After starting work, I ate takeout every day and drank alcohol for business occasions.

Chen Qiu realized how rare it was to be able to sit down at the dining table like this and automatically have a meal of four dishes and a soup prepared!

"Of course! How can restaurant food, with all the seasonings they use, compare to homemade?"

Luo Jinglan said as she cleared away the dishes.

Just then, Chen Zhide's phone rang, and he received a reply from Huang Hui.

"Oh, your aunt said that girl is free the day after tomorrow, which is Sunday noon."

"The photos have also been sent."

Chen Zhide flipped open the three-fold booklet, clicked on the picture, and looked at it carefully under the light.

"Wow...this girl is really beautiful!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Qiu also curiously leaned over to take a look.

The photo was taken in a sea of ​​blue flowers.

A beautiful girl in a white dress is turning slightly to the side, giving the camera a sweet smile.

She has long, slightly wavy hair, exquisite makeup, and a slender figure.

"It's true, she looks just like one of those internet celebrities."

Luo Jinglan also raised an eyebrow.

During their phone call, Chen Zhifeng had praised the girl to the skies, which made her somewhat skeptical.

Looking at the photos now, she is indeed a very beautiful girl.

Chen Qiu nodded in agreement.

It is indeed very beautiful.

But there was little emotion in his eyes.

Just like my mom said, this photo looks too much like those mass-produced internet celebrities on social media...

It looks nice, but it's tacky.

Moreover, this is a professionally retouched photo.

Chen Qiu felt that Xu Jia looked much better when she saw him under the streetlights tonight than in this retouched photo!

"Being too good-looking doesn't necessarily make you a suitable wife."

Chen Zhide, who was drinking tea nearby, glanced at the photo and murmured to himself.

His expectation for Chen Qiu has always been that he should marry a virtuous woman.

But before he could finish speaking, Luo Jinglan glared at him.

"What? Back then, you only pursued me because I was pretty, that's why you shamelessly chased after me?"

"So I'm not suitable to be a wife?"

Chen Zhide's expression froze instantly, and he shrank back, not daring to speak again.

Upon seeing this, Chen Qiu burst out laughing.

He had seen his parents' wedding photos from back then.

My mom was definitely quite good-looking back then.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been born with such a decent face!

Luo Jinglan was too lazy to pay attention to Chen Zhide, who was pretending to be a quail. She patted Chen Qiu on the back.

"Besides, isn't my son handsome?"

Then, Chen Zhifeng also sent over the girl's WeChat contact information.

Her name is He Ting.

"Girls who are this beautiful must have higher standards than Lü Shuang, right?"

Chen Qiu silently looked forward to it and casually clicked the friend request button.

Only then did he see in his WeChat chat list that Xu Jia had sent him a message more than an hour earlier.

[Oh, you! You even lied to me about being laid off.]

I've heard you've made it big!

Chen Qiu was somewhat taken aback.

The news spread way too fast! It's only been a few hours, and it's already reached the next village!

Whether I'll become rich or not, I don't know, but being laid off is real. That bastard boss hasn't even given me severance pay yet!

The message has just been sent.

Xu Jia replied almost instantly.

[You're lying! You've returned home in glory, and you're still keeping it from us old classmates? That's not right!]

No wonder someone who works at a bank has such fast typing speed.

In Chen Qiu's mind, Xu Jia's exceptionally fair and slender hands on the steering wheel involuntarily came to mind.

Okay, to tell you the truth. Actually, when I woke up this morning, I discovered that the IQ of everyone in the world has dropped by a factor of ten thousand...
