Arranged marriage, love blossoms: Marrying into a wealthy family while holding a miniature version o

"Boom--!"

Thunder roared, and lightning flashed across the sky like a ferocious chain, falling in an instant as if to cleave the heavens and earth in two.

Longshan Cemetery.

The torrential rain poured down, relentlessly pounding on each tombstone, making a loud, pattering sound that sent chills down one's spine.

Before a tombstone, a man in a black bespoke suit stood tall and straight, exuding a cold aura. Countless raindrops pounded incessantly on the umbrella and slid down rapidly, forming countless rootless streams that crashed to the ground, splashing up countless water droplets and wetting his trouser legs.

Even so, he remained standing there, staring at the photo on the tombstone, completely still.

Beside him, a bodyguard held a black umbrella over the head of a middle-aged woman who was holding a baby less than two months old. The baby seemed unaware of where he was, his bright black eyes staring curiously at this completely unfamiliar world. When he got sleepy, he even let out a cute yawn.

"Da da da……"

The sound of quick footsteps, pounding in the rain, came and stopped behind the man: "Mr. Chen, the child custody procedures are all completed."

"Ah."

His low, indifferent voice chilled the surrounding atmosphere.

He raised his hand, and the person next to him immediately presented him with a bouquet of chrysanthemums.

He took it, knelt down on one knee, and placed the chrysanthemums in front of the tombstone.

At that moment, the baby in the swaddling clothes seemed to sense something and suddenly burst into tears.

The hand that was placing the chrysanthemums paused slightly. Then, he stared at the photo on the tombstone, a couple in the photo, and said, "I will raise him to adulthood. From this day forward, he will be my son, Wenren Yu."

……

Summer weather is always unpredictable; it can rain or be sunny in an instant.

Zhou Yi went to open the store early in the morning and started her workday in the pouring rain.

She is the store manager of Aijiajia Maternal and Infant Store. Although she is only 23 years old and very young, her outstanding work ability and unparalleled friendliness have won unanimous praise from customers. So, half a year ago, she was promoted to store manager by her boss.

As the store manager, Zhou Yi's salary increased, but so did her workload and pressure. However, she was not afraid of the pressure and continued to work exceptionally hard, arriving earliest and leaving latest every day.

Since she became the store manager, the number of customers has been increasing over the past six months, and the store's business has been getting better and better. The boss is extremely satisfied with her and has entrusted her with managing all the affairs of the store.

There are three employees in the store, including her. One employee took leave in the morning and came back in the afternoon. Another employee was sick and took leave to rest at home.

Zhou Yi was the only one in the shop in the morning, but fortunately it wasn't busy because of the rain and there weren't many customers, so she managed to keep things busy by herself.

However, business is always worse on rainy days. After the rain stopped and the sun came out, Zhou Yi finished counting the morning's sales and found that it was only a few thousand yuan.

Zhou Yi wasn't surprised by this situation. Looking at the sky outside, she figured there would be more people in the afternoon and evening.

Thinking it over, Zhou Yi looked away, locked the cash register drawer, and went back to her work.

"Wow—wow—wow—!"

Suddenly, a baby’s loud cry came from outside, and Zhou Yi immediately stopped in his tracks.

The sound of a baby crying is all too familiar to Zhou Yi, who has worked in a maternity and baby store for more than two years.

Out of work instinct, Zhou Yi immediately looked over and saw a middle-aged woman dressed in black carrying a child walking in quickly.
