After the divorce, the aloof CEO begged me not to withdraw my investment.

Sister-in-law Xiong walked to his side and said softly, "Xiao Tian, ​​put it down. It's time to sleep. You have class tomorrow."

Xiaotian's eyes were still on the screen, and without looking up, she said, "It'll be quick, I'm going to sleep right away."

Sister-in-law Xiong sighed helplessly and picked up the tablet: "If you behave well tomorrow, I'll let you play with it."

Xiao Tian protested a few times in dissatisfaction, but in the end, she couldn't go against her mother's wishes and had no choice but to reluctantly lie down and go to sleep.

Sister-in-law Xiong took the tablet back to the bedroom, where Brother Xiong was lying on the bed reading a book.

"Why did you bring Xiaotian's tablet back?" Brother Xiong asked, somewhat surprised.

“He wants to sleep with it, that won’t do.” Sister Xiong put the tablet on the bedside table. “If we don’t take it away, he definitely won’t sleep all night.”

Brother Xiong smiled, said nothing more, and continued reading. He thought it was normal for children to be curious about new things.

At this moment, Sister Xiong suddenly picked up her phone, opened her browser, and searched for "Apple tablet price".

A string of numbers popped up, making Sister-in-law Xiong gasp in shock.

"Over ten thousand! My God!"

Liu Qingyi is so generous!

Sister-in-law Xiong picked up her phone and snapped a few photos of the tablet and gift box on the bedside table.

She wanted to post it on her WeChat Moments to show off, but she hesitated.

"What are you doing?" Brother Xiong noticed her actions.

"Take a few photos and post them on WeChat Moments," said Sister Xiong as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Don't send it." Brother Xiong frowned. "People give gifts with good intentions. What kind of image do you project if you send them out like this?"

"I just posted a few photos and didn't say anything," said Sister Xiong, somewhat indignantly. "It's a shame not to share such good stuff on social media."

She felt that Brother Xiong was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Brother Xiong put down his book and looked at her seriously: "Think about it, what would Qingyi think if she saw this?"

Sister-in-law Xiong had never really thought about this question.

She hesitated for a moment, but ultimately deleted the photos.

"Okay, I won't send it."

Brother Xiong nodded in satisfaction and picked up the book again.

After looking at it for a while, Brother Xiong suddenly spoke up: "By the way, can you help me check how much my wallet is worth?"

Sister-in-law Xiong was still thinking about the skincare products Liu Qingyi had given her, and casually replied, "Why would I need to check that?"

"Just asking casually," Brother Xiong said in a relaxed tone.

Sister-in-law Xiong opened her phone and searched for "LV men's wallet price".

“More than five thousand,” Sister Xiong read out the search results.

He was stunned. A wallet, worth over five thousand!

Meanwhile, Liu Qingyi got up, turned on the light, and went to the wardrobe to change her clothes.

But suddenly he was stunned.

"Ye Feng, come here for a moment." Liu Qingyi called out to the living room from in front of the open wardrobe.

Ye Feng got up from the sofa and walked to the bedroom door.

"What's wrong?" he asked casually, but his gaze involuntarily fell on the wardrobe.

Beside the neatly folded clothes, several pieces of lace lingerie were faintly visible.

Liu Qingyi was still examining the wardrobe and didn't notice Ye Feng's gaze: "Take a look at this wardrobe, is it made of some kind of special wood?"

Ye Feng's gaze lingered on the underwear for a moment before he looked at the wardrobe.

"Hmm, it seems to be made of mahogany?" he said uncertainly.

Liu Qingyi finally noticed that Ye Feng's gaze was a bit strange. Following his gaze, she immediately blushed.

Where are you looking?!

Ye Feng realized he had lost his composure and awkwardly touched his nose: "Huh? I was looking at... I was looking at this wardrobe. Didn't you tell me to look at furniture?"

Liu Qingyi was furious and glared at him fiercely: "I told you to look at the furniture, why are you looking at my underwear!"

Ye Feng hurriedly shifted his gaze, his eyes darting around, but he dared not look at Liu Qingyi again.

"Take a good look. I showed you this wardrobe. Quickly knock on it." She gently knocked on the wardrobe door.

Ye Feng, puzzled, did as instructed and knocked on the wardrobe: "And then?"

"Redwood! Very precious redwood!" Liu Qingyi emphasized, "A wardrobe made of such valuable wood is actually used to store clothes!"

Ye Feng was even more confused.

"If you don't use a wardrobe to store clothes, what else can you use it for? Are you going to put it on a pedestal?" He found Liu Qingyi's reaction somewhat inexplicable.

Then, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and was about to light it when Liu Qingyi immediately stopped him.

"Don't smoke in the room, go outside to smoke." Liu Qingyi pointed to the door, her tone filled with helplessness.

Ye Feng felt as if he had been granted a pardon and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Liu Qingyi suddenly called out to him.

Ye Feng turned around in confusion.

Liu Qingyi said seriously, "Ye Feng, if you ever risk your life for another woman again, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

Ye Feng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"What are you talking about? Who else would I risk my life for? I'd only risk my life for you." He walked to the door, then turned back, his tone ingratiating. "What do you want to eat tomorrow? Want to see a movie?"

Looking at his grinning face, Liu Qingyi reached out her hand in annoyance.

"Card."

"What?" Ye Feng didn't react for a moment.

"Bank card! Also, link it to WeChat. From now on, you need to report every expense you make to me." Liu Qingyi said bluntly.

Ye Feng's smile froze. He took out his wallet, handed over his card, and also gave her the 100,000 yuan that Jiang Yanqing had given him.

Liu Qingyi took the card and money and started operating the phone.

Ye Feng watched her actions and said with a wry smile, "Anyone who didn't know better would think you were negotiating with me."

Liu Qingyi didn't even look up. "I'm used to it."

Ye Feng suddenly said softly, "Qingyi, thank you for thinking so much about me and buying so many gifts."

Liu Qingyi finally raised her head and glanced at him. "Yes. However, some of them are from my previous collection."

Ye Feng felt a warmth in his heart. Liu Qingyi had always been stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside; she wasn't good at expressing herself.

The next morning, Ye Feng practiced boxing in the courtyard, each move powerful and vigorous.

"Breakfast is ready," Liu Qingyi's voice came from behind.

Ye Feng finished his stance and turned to walk towards her.

As the morning light shone on Liu Qingyi, Ye Feng couldn't help but reach out to help her tidy her hair, which had just been ruffled by the wind.

"Good morning!" Oda's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the subtle atmosphere between the two.

Ye Feng awkwardly withdrew his hand and smiled.

Back at the restaurant. Breakfast was simple: congee, side dishes, and steamed buns.

As Liu Qingyi ate her familiar breakfast, her thoughts drifted back to her childhood. Back then, breakfasts were just as simple, with the whole family sitting together, warm and happy.

She was eating when she suddenly felt a gaze fixed on her.

She looked up and found that Oda was staring intently at her.

"Xiaotian, why are you looking at me instead of eating?" Liu Qingyi asked curiously.
