"Men are fickle!"
Yang Cheng shouted shamelessly, then walked past Guo Xuehua and pinched Zhenxiu's nose, causing Zhenxiu to be like a little rabbit that was about to bite someone.
This scene made Guo Xuehua roll her eyes, looking at her shameless son, he was simply a clown, it was a pity that she missed out on his childhood and youth.
Guo Xuehua and Mother Wang looked at each other and smiled, they could see the gratification in each other's eyes.
"Son-in-law, don't tease that lass Zhenxiu, today is such a joyous day, why don't we go out for a meal!" Mother Wang suggested.
"Yulan's suggestion is not bad." Guo Xuehua said excitedly, "We can also invite that lass Choi Yeon, Tang Wan, and Tangtang. Oh right, also Qiangwei, Qianni, Anxin, and Mingyu. Yang Cheng, you can also contact them, if something good happens, we can all have a good time together."
Just as she finished speaking, Guo Xuehua felt that something was wrong. That's right! Lin Ruoxi was still here!
When she was happy, she wanted to invite all the women she liked, but she suddenly forgot about the thoughts of her real daughter-in-law.
Involuntarily, Guo Xuehua looked at Lin Ruoxi, a little embarrassed, and asked, "Ruoxi, what do you think? Or should our family go out for a meal? "
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly, "Mother is right, just invite everyone, I don't have any objections."
Hearing Lin Ruoxi's straightforward and calm reply, although Guo Xuehua was happy, she also felt that it was strange.
Yang Cheng's heart skipped a beat, he suddenly realized that Lin Ruoxi had given up on fighting for her own position, as if she had seen through everything!
If it was in the past, Yang Cheng would still feel extremely happy because he finally didn't have to be in a cold war with his wife because of another woman.
However, the current situation was clearly the result of Lin Ruoxi losing confidence in herself after being stimulated to a certain extent. That was why there was such a sudden change.
Such a situation only made Yang Cheng feel extremely uncomfortable!
Yang Cheng even thought that even if she used to stare at him coldly in the past, it would still make him feel more comfortable than this gentle and obedient appearance.
The matter was settled. Guo Xuehua called them personally, and the women naturally wouldn't refuse. Even Anxin had just gone back to deal with some matters. Even if she had work to do, she declined it first.
However, when she called Liu Mingyu, Zhenxiu repeatedly emphasized that they couldn't let Liu Minghao come over, for fear that the kid would come and play some troublesome tricks.
After all the preparations were done, the family was driven by Yang Cheng to a leisure and vacation farmhouse restaurant that had reserved a private room. It was also a villa that Lin Ruoxi had acquired not long ago, and it came in handy.
The entire restaurant was built on an artificial lake. On both sides of the private room, there were huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows that could see the starry night outside and the sparkling lake.
When the women arrived one after another, the entire big round table was full. There were more than a dozen seats, and it was quite lively.
As soon as Tangtang arrived, she chatted non-stop with Zhenxiu. The two girls seemed to have established a stable friendship after passing the college entrance examination. After all, they were of the same age and had a lot to talk about. This made the group of women in their twenties feel that there was a generation gap between them and the two girls.
This was because Yang Cheng had gathered all the women once for the matter of human cloning, so there was no awkwardness when they met again.
Everyone was talking and laughing, and it looked like a happy and harmonious gathering.
To Yang Cheng's surprise, other than Guo Xuehua, Yang Cheng's biological mother, the most popular one was actually Tang Wan.
Perhaps it was because Tang Wan was more than ten years older than them, and her experience and knowledge were much higher, it was easy for the women to show some admiration for her when she talked, and it was also very convincing.
Anxin, Liu Mingyu, and Mo Qianni were all in business management, and they were particularly interested in some of Tang Wan's pointers.
In fact, in terms of doing business, it was not that Tang Wan was better than Lin Ruoxi. In fact, in terms of achievements, Tang Wan was the type who preferred stability, and there was still a gap between her and Lin Ruoxi. However, it was precisely because Lin Ruoxi always took the unconventional path that others would not have the thought of asking her for advice.
And naturally, Choi Yeon and Qiangwei had the most things to talk about. Both of them were more interested in practicing martial arts. When Qiangwei said that after a thunderstorm recently, she gradually found a "path" that belonged to her, Choi Yeon kept asking questions. She looked very anxious, which made Qiangwei very annoyed. In the end, they talked about some topics about the underworld, which made Choi Yeon's appetite become better.
It seemed that the women were very harmonious, but Yang Cheng also knew that it was a different matter in the depths of their hearts.
As the hostess, Lin Ruoxi did not participate in the conversation much. She was not good at talking. She was busy ordering the dishes, choosing the ingredients, and choosing the drinks. After that, she sat quietly beside Guo Xuehua.
Throughout the entire dinner, other than talking about Zhenxiu and occasionally clinking glasses with fruit juice, Lin Ruoxi did not say much. However, everyone knew her personality, so they were not surprised.
Yang Cheng saw this. He did not say anything, but in his heart, he became more and more worried.
It was not until ten o 'clock in the evening that everyone returned. Because all the women at the table did not drink, everyone was very sober when they said goodbye.
Yang Cheng drove home. When he was about to enter the door, he called out to Lin Ruoxi.
"Ruoxi, don't go in yet. Come for a walk with me."
Lin Ruoxi, who was about to follow Guo Xuehua in, was stunned and hesitated at the door.
Zhenxiu, who was already in the house, smiled and said, "Sister Ruoxi, let's go. It's rare for Brother Yang to think of such a leisurely and elegant thing. A walk under the moonlight."
Guo Xuehua, on the other hand, saw something and pushed her daughter-in-law's back, "Go, remember to bring the key, I want to lock the door."
Lin Ruoxi nodded obediently and walked to Yang Cheng's side.
Yang Cheng naturally held the woman's hand and turned around to walk straight to the wide green area on the west side of the villa.
Stepping on the winding path paved with cobblestones, a fresh breeze blew through the trees at night. A crescent moon hung in the sky, and the stars were especially clear and bright at this moment.
Yang Cheng's eyes were filled with thoughts, and he did not speak for a long time.
Lin Ruoxi only felt that her hand was being held by the man, and had no intention of letting go. Feeling the burning warmth, her heart was intertwined with a complicated feeling, a little bitter, a little sour, and a little sweet.
"Don't you have something to say …" Lin Ruoxi could not help but ask.
Yang Cheng let out a light breath, and suddenly said with a smile, "I can tell that Zhenxiu is very grateful to you, from the bottom of her heart."
Lin Ruoxi pursed her lips and smiled, "Hasn't she always been very sensible? Why did you suddenly mention this?"
"There are also many people who are grateful to you." Yang Cheng said.
"Who?"
"Your subordinates, your employees, the bosses of the small companies that you bought over …" A lot, a lot, "Yang Cheng said slowly.
Lin Ruoxi looked at the man in confusion.
Yang Chen turned his head away. Under the moonlight, his ordinary face appeared chiseled. "Madam Lin Ruoxi, my dear wife … you've earned a lot of money. Although your total assets aren't as much as mine, you're stronger than me. You're stronger because you've helped more people earn more money besides yourself. That's the value you've shown."
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly and said, "You don't need to comfort me like that. I'm fine. Besides, I'm just trying my best to keep the business my grandmother left me alive. I'm not that great. "
"To judge whether you are great or not, to judge your true value, is not to look at how much money you make now, nor is it to look at how many people you feed … It's history. History will tell people whether you are a profiteer who only knows how to make money to satisfy your selfish desires or a great entrepreneur. I believe that history will choose the latter." Yang Cheng blinked his eyes and smiled.
"Don't say these words to make me happy. I'm not a child. I know what I'm doing." Lin Ruoxi said calmly.
Yang Cheng stopped in his tracks, turned around and faced the woman, and said solemnly: "You said that you are always worried about me, always afraid of me, always tortured. Now, since you say that you know what you're doing, why do you want me to worry about you and suffer for you!?
I've been thinking about you since morning. Even when I go out with Anxin, I'll think about you from time to time. I'm worried that you won't be able to eat, that you won't be tired, that you'll be hiding in the office crying by yourself … Do you know what you're doing?
You don't want me to put too much pressure on you, and so do I. But you're starting to make it hard for me. I am your family, and I am also your husband. Shouldn't a husband and wife understand and help each other? If you really treat me as your husband, you should tell me what's wrong with you, what's so difficult about you, tell me, you need me!
