Marriage is long and desires are strong

Jiang Wei recalled that Qin Xiaoye had said the same thing when he asked her to choose a car.

You only truly feel something when you make your own choice.

Is this what it means to choose what you love?

Therefore, Qin Xiaoye never makes decisions for her directly, but hopes that she will make her own choices.

I hope she can choose what she loves.

Jiang Wei received the money, her eyes crinkling slightly, and her voice soft: "Thank you, Mr. Qin~"

Looking into her soft, watery eyes, Qin Xiaoye smiled and said, "You're welcome, Miss Jiang."

Jiang Wei whispered, "Let's treat this money as an advance, deducting it from our monthly allowance of 800 million?"

Qin Xiaoye narrowed his eyes as he looked at her, his gaze slowly settling on her rosy lips, his breathing becoming heavier: "Consider it a gift for you."

Jiang Wei blinked, puzzled. "What gift?"

It is neither a holiday nor a festival.

Qin Xiaoye tilted his head and thought for a moment: "A gift to celebrate the 40th anniversary and 108th day since Journey to the West aired."

Jiang Wei chuckled: "Then this gift is a bit heavy."

Qin Xiaoye looked at her with a soft smile: "Then consider it a congratulatory gift for leaving the Jiang family."

My hand rested on her waist, and I could feel the thin cotton fabric on her waist gently brushing against my fingertips; it was so soft.

Jiang Wei felt his large hand radiating heat as it patted her waist.

It makes her very soft...

Qin Xiaoye spoke slowly and calmly, his eyes fixed on hers, dark and steady: "You must remember."

Jiang Wei didn't understand: "Remember what?"

Qin Xiaoye said slowly, "I am your external space."

"When you don't have enough interior space, remember to ask for help from the outside."

"Just think of it as... an external power source."

Jiang Wei's eyes crinkled into a smile as she muttered softly, "Isn't that just taking advantage of others too much...?"

Qin Xiaoye raised his hand and pinched her small nose: "I'm not afraid of being taken advantage of."

His fingertips traced her cheek, leaving behind the man's burning, fiery breath.

Jiang Wei recalled other people's evaluations of Qin Xiaoye, who was said to never suffer a loss in the business world.

He said he wasn't afraid of being taken advantage of? Huh?

Qin Xiaoye stared at her: "Repeat it."

Jiang Wei felt like she was being asked to repeat answers by her teacher in elementary school: "Qin Xiaoye, I'll ask you for help when I need it."

Qin Xiaoye nodded in satisfaction, then slowly nodded, "Mm."

Jiang Wei hesitated for a moment: "If I leave the Jiang family, my family background will be even worse... Wouldn't you be at a greater disadvantage if you married into the family?"

Qin Xiaoye raised his eyes and paused, his gaze serious: "I don't need to consider family background."

"This has never been in my consideration."

"The Jiang family isn't exactly a prestigious family background, so you're actually more free because of it."

Jiang Wei suddenly felt a pang of sadness. The Li family had told her that only those with the Jiang family background were qualified to marry Li Si.

The Jiang family told her that without the Jiang family, she would never have caught the eye of the Qin family.

But now Qin Xiaoye says that family background is not important.

Only he said that to himself.

A bittersweet feeling welled up and rushed to Jiang Wei's eyes.

Qin Xiaoye raised his hand and gently wiped her eyes, saying slowly, "Actually, rich people aren't as smart as you think. Many of them are products of their time."

"Even a pig standing in the right place at the right time can fly."

There's a saying in the financial world: "Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked."

"The Jiang family used to be in the real estate and building materials business. When things were good, it was easy to make money, but they didn't adapt in time, and they didn't keep any of the money they had earned. They were basically swimming naked."

"Many people may appear successful with a net worth of over a billion, but in reality, they also owe over a billion in bank loans."

"Some rich people are just bluffing."

"If you look at them with a demystified eye, you'll find they're not so great after all. They're greasy where they're supposed to be, and stupid where they're supposed to be, they're stupid too."

"Of course, there are also clever ones."

Jiang Wei whispered, "Don't you think the Jiang family is incredibly stupid?"

Qin Xiaoye chuckled softly, "Indeed. It would be foolish not to treat such a good daughter well."

He gently ruffled Jiang Wei's hair, the fine, black strands swirling around his fingertips.

He ran his fingertips through the soft, delicate strands of hair, feeling their texture: "If I had such a beautiful and adorable daughter, I'd give you all the toys in the world. Would you really take them back?"

The pointed remark made Jiang Wei blush.

Qin Xiaoye held Jiang Wei in his arms, slowly playing with her hair: "If the Jiang family makes things difficult for you, please tell me, okay?"

Jiang Wei bit her lip. She wasn't sure if her household registration could be transferred smoothly, but...

"What would you do?"

Qin Xiaoye looked at his fingers, which were wrapped with strands of hair, and his fingertips looked like they were soaked in water. He whispered softly, "I'll protect you."

The four words "leisurely and carefree" reminded Jiang Wei of when she was little, when Jiang Che pushed her around on a swing and said, "Weiwei, don't worry, your father will protect you."

Now, when Qin Xiaoye softly said, "I'll protect you," Jiang Wei couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.

It's sour, astringent, and...sweet.

It was as if Qin Xiaoye had held up the umbrella that her father hadn't been holding steady, shielding her from the constant drizzle falling over her head.

Qin Xiaoye's voice was slow and steady: "Don't worry, I am a law-abiding citizen."

However, he unconsciously exuded a dangerous aura.

Like a wild beast whose territory has been invaded, a sense of oppression arises spontaneously.

Jiang Wei nodded gently: "Okay, I'll try it myself first."

She looked intently into Qin Xiaoye's dark eyes: "Qin Xiaoye, thank you."

Xu Mo said she had found a good marriage, and that was true.

Qin Xiaoye is really good.

Aside from being a bit bigger and a bit more difficult...

Qin Xiaoye narrowed his eyes and met her gaze. His usually narrow and cold eyes were filled with warmth.

The two looked into each other's eyes, and the air became thick and uncertain.

Qin Xiaoye exhaled warm breath, his smile soft and lingering: "Then how will you thank me?"

A smile is like a soft, fluffy cotton candy, fluffy like a cloud, sweet and lingering in the mouth.

Sweetness spread, crackling with electricity, swirling between the two, climbing up their skin, leaving behind trembling little currents.

Jiang Wei licked her full, red lips and said softly, "Here, have some."

Qin Xiaoye's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his hormones surged rapidly, mingling with Jiang Wei's sweet scent in the room.

His voice was low and hoarse: "How do you want to eat?"

Jiang Wei's voice was soft and slightly coquettish as she slowly asked, "How would you like to eat it?"

Qin Xiaoye smiled faintly and slowly: "It mainly depends on how much you can tolerate eating."

"I'm afraid if I eat too much, there won't be any left for the next meal."

Jiang Wei bit her lip: "Then don't eat too much..."

She was afraid too.

It's actually quite tiring to keep turning over and over.

Qin Xiaoye's physical strength is indeed amazing.

Qin Xiaoye laughed: "Paper tiger~~"

"Then I'll just take a small sip."

"Please give me your guidance, Madam."
