You forced me to marry a prodigal son, you deserve to be enshrined in the imperial temple

"Sorry, I don't drink. Thank you for your blessing."

Xu Xingzhu refused with a smile, but her voice was cold.

Cui San shrugged and frowned.

The whole table was filled with Li Jingyi’s wealthy friends.

They were all dressed elegantly, but all had the temperament of a dandy boy.

The people next to him were about to make a fuss.

Li Jingyi took the wine and drank it all.

"Brothers, give my wife some face. She can't drink, so I'll do it for her."

Without waiting for his friends' reactions, Li Jingyi took her hand and walked to the next table of guests to toast.

The banquet ended at midnight.

Xu Xingzhu had already returned to her room.

She took out a box of cookies she had prepared and started eating.

It is customary for the newlyweds not to sit down and eat with the guests on their wedding day.

As soon as Li Jingyi entered the door, he saw her eating biscuits.

"Eat dry food and live a dry life? How can you swallow such dry food? Come, I'll ask Sister Li to prepare food for you."

Mrs. Li walked in respectfully, pushing a two-story cart.

"Madam, before the young master went out to meet you, he asked me to stew bird's nest and shark's fin for you. Please enjoy them slowly."

The bird's nest and shark's fin are fragrant.

Xu Xingzhu didn't expect this prodigal son to be so attentive.

I also prepared delicious food for her.

She didn't shy away and thanked Mrs. Li in person before starting to eat.

She had never eaten bird's nest and shark fin in her life. They tasted smooth, soft and especially sweet.

She had just finished eating and put down her bowl and chopsticks.

Li Jingyi handed a passbook to her.

"I, Li Jingyi, have always been brave enough to take responsibility for what I do. Since I promised you, I will not break my promise. This is part of my savings. Take it for yourself."

Xu Xingzhu took the passbook and opened it.

It was as if he was struck by lightning several times on the spot.

She counted absentmindedly on her fingers.

“1、2、3、4、5、6……7……”

Oh my god, more than one million.

"So much money, all given to me?"

Li Jingyi looked at her with disdain, then laughed, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"Don't act like you haven't seen the world. You are the daughter-in-law of the Li family. Don't be so jumpy in the future. It makes you look rustic."

"Thank you for your reminder. I'll take it."

Xu Xingzhu put the passbook away.

Li Jingyi suddenly reminded him again.

"The password is today's date. It's easy to remember, right? You have to remember that if you take the money, you have to do your duty. Don't interfere in my affairs, and don't look for me."

"Ah."

Xu Xingzhu nodded with her nose. She had money but no husband. She could live like a widow for the rest of her life.

Seeing that she was very obedient, like a naive girl, Li Jingyi was very satisfied.

"call out!"

He whistled and went out in a dashing manner.

After the banquet, Li Family Villa fell into silence.

At night you can hear the chirping of insects, the gentle night breeze, the fragrance of flowers, and the bright street lights. The environment is so damn great!

In this world, the gap between poverty and wealth is so huge.

Xu Xingzhu sat alone in the bridal chamber and did not see Li Jingyi come back.

Mrs. Li came in and told her: "Madam, the young master called and said there's no need to wait for him, he won't be back tonight."

"understood."

I didn't wait for him either. Xu Xingzhu happily covered herself with the quilt and fell asleep.

I slept very comfortably that night.

At dawn, Mrs. Li knocked on the door and said, "Madam, would you like to stay in your room or go to the restaurant on the first floor for dinner?"

"I'll go down."

Xu Xingzhu was not in the habit of eating in her room, and she felt embarrassed to always trouble Mrs. Li and the others.

She got dressed and walked to the restaurant on the first floor.

The breakfast is very rich, with desserts, fruits, and freshly made pasta.

The ingredients are fresh and taste great.

Xu Xingzhu had been hungry all night and ate with relish.

Zhang Wanli was wearing a dark red cheongsam, looking noble and elegant, as she walked from the main building to her son's single-family villa.

"mom."

Xu Xingzhu greeted her.

"Didn't that brat Jingyi come back all night?"

"No, he might have something urgent and went out in the middle of the night."

Alas, for the sake of that one million, I should also lie for him.

"You can speak for him. After the guests left last night, he went out to drink with his friends and didn't come back the whole night."

"Xingzhu, I have worked with your mother for so many years, and I know your family very well. You are kind, upright, and responsible, while Jingyi is a playful kid who is not practical. You two complement each other perfectly. I can't control him, so I have to find a wife to control him. You have to take good care of him and not let him do whatever he wants."

Xu Xingzhu agreed and said nothing more.

Zhang Wanli took out an exquisite and high-end satin box, opened the lid, and inside was an emerald bracelet.

It is transparent and has a bright luster. Even if she doesn't know the goods, she cannot deny that it is a high-end product.

"Mom doesn't have anything to give you, so I asked someone to look for this good thing in northern Myanmar for a long time. Consider it a wedding gift for you."

After saying this, he gently lifted Xu Xingzhu's little hand and put it in for her.

It was easy to bring it in. Her hands were fair and delicate, and they looked even whiter when paired with the emerald.

"Thank you, Mom."

As soon as Zhang Wanli left, Li Jingyi came back drunk, reeking of alcohol.

He was brought back by Cui San from last night.

"Why did you give him so much alcohol?"

Xu Xingzhu was a little angry and looked at Cui San with cold eyes.

Cui San also had some prejudices against Xu Xingzhu. After all, they were childhood friends and did business with the Li family. He was also a well-known figure.

She refused to drink the toasts at the wedding banquet last night, and was later criticized by her friends, which made Cui San feel very embarrassed.

"When we brothers drink, we never have to report it to the women at home. Why is it that it's not allowed for you?"

Xu Xingzhu's face darkened. "Your brother is your brother, and he is him! Your brother's woman and I are different. I don't care what others do, but since he married me, he can't drink like this."

Cui San's little canine teeth made a crunching sound when he bit them.

"Oh wow, you are quite capable. Do you know who you married? He is Li Jingyi. No one in this world can control him."

When Mrs. Li saw them quarreling, she was afraid that the young lady would suffer.

Then, Mrs. Li saw that the young lady was no ordinary person either.

"I'm taking money from others to help them get rid of their misfortunes. I'm Li Jingyi's wife now. I'm in charge of both his people and his money. No matter who is his friend, if anyone keeps urging him to drink day and night, I'll never forgive him!"

This is said with certainty. There is no wife in this world who cannot take care of her husband's affairs.

Seeing that Xu Xingzhu was weak, Cui San thought she was easy to control, so he wanted to suppress her with words.

I didn't expect that she was not a soft persimmon that could be easily bullied.

"Forget it. A good man doesn't fight with a woman. I can't interfere in your affairs. I'm leaving now."

After Cui San finished speaking, he left without looking back.
