"My third brother and your cousin, them?" Xia Ruoan looked at Leng Zexi in surprise, his eyes full of confusion and curiosity, "Is there any hope for them to be together?"

Leng Zexi shook his head slightly, indicating that he was not sure either.

He knew that his cousin had a good impression of Lin Cai, but Lin Cai did not seem to have the same feeling and always avoided her intentionally or unintentionally.

Seeing him shaking his head, Xia Ruoan was silent for a moment and decided not to say anything more.

After all, only the parties involved know best about emotional matters, and it is difficult for outsiders to interfere or judge.

By this time, the lawyer had gathered all the documents, said goodbye to them and left the room.

Leng Zexi picked up a tissue and prepared to help Xia Ruoan wipe the porridge stains from the corners of her mouth.

However, Xia Ruoan subconsciously avoided his hand.

She bit her lip, a look of embarrassment and timidity on her face. Although the relationship between her and Leng Zexi was getting closer, she still felt a little uncomfortable with the overly intimate behavior.

"Um... I can do it myself, thank you." Xia Ruoan said softly, took the tissue and started wiping it himself.

A hint of loss flashed across Leng Zexi's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He understood that it would take time and patience for Xia Ruoan to fully accept him. After all, they had just started a new relationship and both needed to adapt and adjust.

"Okay, I'll clean up here and take you home later." Leng Zexi looked at her indifferently and said.

"Are you going back today? How will your face look?" Xia Ruoan was very worried that she would be kicked out. "If you go back like this, your family will scold me, right?"

"Silly girl, why would they scold you? They will just say I deserve it. This is what I deserve. Nothing will happen to me, don't worry." Leng Zexi comforted.

"Okay, then help me move the potted plants."

Leng Zexi raised his eyebrows and followed. He saw that there weren't many flowers yesterday, but they weren't cheap either.

"Take a look. Does anyone in your family like to grow flowers? What kind of flowers do they like? Are there any of these suitable? These are all grown by me."

"If there's nothing they like, I'll cultivate some according to their preferences later and then pick the best ones to send to them."

Xia Ruoan said with some embarrassment, "Well, your family won't mind me giving away the flowers and plants I grew myself, right? That's all I know how to do. Otherwise, we should go to the mall to buy some."

"You tell me what they like, you choose, and I'll pay." Xia Ruoan said after thinking for a while.

"The Zhou family didn't like the flowers and plants I sent them, saying they were not presentable." Xia Ruoan remembered that this was what Zhou's mother said when she first visited the Zhou family.

"It was only after Grandpa Zhou told Madam Zhou about the value of the flowers that she accepted them and even asked me to deliver them." Xia Ruoan looked at him and said.

"Are you really willing to let me pick out the flowers from your place to give away? These are very valuable. If it were an auction, you could even put them at the end." Leng Zexi looked at these peonies, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't surprised.

"If you sell this combination of the eight most precious varieties of peonies, the starting price will be at least tens of millions." Leng Zexi couldn't understand why the Zhou family would despise someone with such ability. They were really blind.

"Are you talking about peonies? Can I give you this set?" Xia Ruoan was not surprised to hear the price, because she had sold a set before and used it as funds for her third brother.

"You bought a set for your third brother, right?" Leng Zexi remembered what Lin Cai said. He was where he is today because of Xia Ruoan's financial support.

"Well, I sold a set. I heard that an old man bought it for a very high price." Xia Ruoan knew it was valuable. He happened to hear his third brother said that he was short of money, so he gave it to him on his birthday and asked him to sell it.

"Your third brother said that if it weren't for you, he wouldn't be where he is today." Leng Zexi said with emotion as he stroked the bean green leaves.

"That's not the case. The main reason is that Third Brother is capable. Even if I don't give him money, he can still earn it on his own. It's just a matter of time. As long as I can remember, Third Brother has always been thinking about how to make money. Others are thinking about where to go for fun, but he is the only one who thinks about where to make money."

"Also, when we went to the amusement park, other people went to spend money, but he went to earn money. When I was a kid, I didn't have to worry about not having pocket money. He bought me whatever I wanted."

"Third brother is a very good person, so I am really happy that I can help him. I don't feel reluctant at all." Xia Ruoan said seriously.

"I really envy Lin Cai for having such a good sister like you." Leng Zexi couldn't help but admire her courage when he heard this. You know, most aristocratic families are eyeing the family's property, and there are quite a few cases where brothers turn against each other.

"Don't be envious. If you like them, I will cultivate a set for you next time. I'll trouble you to move these peonies a few more times and give them to your family as a gift. I hope they don't dislike it." Xia Ruoan looked at him and smiled.

Leng Zexi looked at her and said, "They won't mind. They'd love it. They'll love your gifts. Even if you don't bring anything with you, they'll still like you. What's more, you're pregnant with their much-desired grandchild."

"Maybe it's a granddaughter." Xia Ruoan disagreed.

"Does your family favor boys over girls?" Xia Ruoan started to worry. After all, wealthy families would probably care about that.

"No, a granddaughter would be even better. When my mom was pregnant with me, she didn't react at all because she knew it was a girl. She was so happy that my dad bought me everything pink. He even decorated the room in pink because it was for a girl."

"Before I was one year old, I used pink. If my grandparents hadn't had the common sense to have someone prepare a separate room for me, I might have had to live in the princess room." Leng Zexi heard all this from his grandmother.

Xia Ruoan laughed when he heard it.

"Now you're smiling. You don't have to worry now." Leng Zexi pulled her hand over, and Xia Ruoan didn't struggle this time.

"So you don't have to feel pressured. I like both boys and girls. My family is the same. If it's a girl, we will pamper her like a little princess. If it's a boy, I will train him into a little knight to protect you." Leng Zexi said seriously.

How could he not see her nervousness, especially after the Zhou family treated her like that before.

"Zhou family, I asked my father to cut off all cooperation with the Zhou family. There will be no more cooperation with them. The order issued by headquarters is that the Leng family and the Zhou family will no longer have any cooperation.

Xia Ruoan looked up at him, surprise flashing in her eyes. "Don't be like this. I'm fine. Zhou Mufan and I weren't suitable for each other, and we parted ways peacefully. There's no need to incur losses because of my disobedience."
