I arranged a marriage for you, not made you invincible under a disguise.

Shen Sixi had a self-righteous look on her face, as if to say, "I'm just pushing my luck."

"Honey, since you're already here, just cooperate a little, I'll be quick."

Shen Tu Mo frowned and looked uncomfortably out the window.

Shen Sixi looked pleased and continued shouting while peeking out.

"husband?"

“…I promise you.” Shen Tu Mo’s brows were still furrowed tightly.

This is not a car.

This is a pirate ship.

Shen Sixi achieved her goal and happily enjoyed the luxury car seats.

There was also a small refrigerator in the car, storing red wine and desserts.

She bent down to take it out, tasting it while admiring the scenery along the way.

Shen Tu Mo still has a lot of work to do.

He had his laptop on his lap and never stopped working once he got busy.

Hearing the rustling sounds of Shen Sixi eating, Shen Tu Mo's brows remained furrowed the entire way.

Shen Sixi, on the other hand, seemed quite content.

She indulged in eating, drinking, and having fun, while he worked himself to the bone to earn money for her.

How awesome is that?

She had always heard other colleagues talk about the joy of "husbands having money and not coming home," and now she was finally experiencing it for herself.

……

We arrived at the Shen family's villa.

Even from a distance, they could tell that they knew Shen Tu Mo was coming and were waiting at the door to greet him.

Compared to the Shen family, the Shen family was nothing.

Including the few live-in housekeepers they hired, the Shen family only had seven or eight people.

Shen Sixi's father, Shen Zhenghua.

The mistress who rose to power is now Shen Zhenghua's nominal wife, Liu Ninghui.

Their daughter, Shen Siyan, and her husband were waiting at the door.

The Shen family was once a top-tier wealthy family with a very prominent ancestry. Almost half of the businesses in the country were related to the Shen family.

It's just that each generation is worse than the last.

By the time it came to Shen Zhenghua, the family fortune had been squandered and little was left.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; the Shen family is still considered respectable.

After all, the connections I've built up are still there.

However, it was inconceivable to everyone that the Shen family could marry their daughter into the Shen Tu family.

No one understood why Shen Tu Mo was willing to form a marriage alliance with the Shen family.

Even the Shen family couldn't understand it. All they knew was that such a huge advantage had fallen into their laps, and that their ancestors' graves must be emitting auspicious smoke!

Shen Zhenghua was eager to show off his skills.

If it makes my son-in-law happy, I'll casually share some of my business opportunities.

The Shen family might just flourish under his leadership!

Seeing Shen Sixi approaching arm in arm with Shen Tu Mo, Shen Zhenghua turned around and gave Shen Siyan some instructions.

"You wouldn't marry me back then."

Now that he's your brother-in-law, stop thinking about him!

After saying that, he went to greet people with a smile from a distance.

Shen Siyan was inexplicably warned by her father, and she was very unhappy.

"Mom, how could Dad say that?!"

"What's there to miss about Shen Tu Mo! The person I'm going to marry in the future is much more capable than him."

Liu Ninghui held her daughter's hand, her expression a mixture of doting affection and helplessness.

"Alright, stop fooling around. Your father and I have spoiled you rotten. You think you can just refuse to marry into such a good family?"

"There's no one more powerful than Shen Tu Mo. There's no such person."

Liu Ninghui was also filled with remorse.

The duck that was about to be eaten was fed to that little bitch Shen Sixi by the willful daughter.

When the two approached.

Liu Ninghui pulled Shen Siyan aside and said with a forced smile:

"Welcome! Our Xiaoxi got married in the blink of an eye. I felt the house was so empty these past few days while you were away."

Shen Sixi nodded in agreement, "That's right, of course it feels empty when there's no one to vent to."

"What nonsense!"

"Just kidding."

Shen Zhenghua and Liu Ninghui spoke at the same time, and then subconsciously glanced at Shen Tu Mo's expression.

His dark eyes revealed no warmth or emotion, and his aura was cold and hard.

What son-in-law would dare to be so disrespectful to his parents-in-law?

But he is Shen Tu Mo.

They could only offer forced smiles.

"Come in and have a seat."

"These are all imported fruits, specially bought for your homecoming visit."

"Stay for dinner later! We've prepared king crab and grouper today—"

"Where's my mom?" Shen Sixi's three words interrupted her incessant chatter.

Shen Zhenghua and Liu Ninghui both froze, and the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

A few seconds later, Shen Zhenghua chuckled: "You know your mother is recuperating in the hospital?"

"I want to video chat with my mom." Shen Sixi's expression was solemn. "Today is an important day for my mother to return to her parents' home, so I need to let her see me."

"Your mother is sleeping. She just had surgery, so don't disturb her rest."

Shen Sixi persisted, "Then I can just see my mom for a moment, you can make a video call to the caregiver."

Liu Ninghui chuckled awkwardly, "No rush, let's eat some fruit. Maybe when your mother wakes up, we can—"

"Is it really that hard to make a video call to the caregiver?" Shen Sixi's voice rose, quite unlike her usual tone.

Even Shen Tu Mo turned his head to look at her.

Shen Sixi pressed on, "Or are you saying you didn't even hire a caregiver for my mother? You just left her in the hospital to fend for herself?"

She got up and left, throwing the pomegranate they had just shoved into her hand onto the ground.

The three members of the Shen family stared at Shen Sixi in shock.

As if I'd never met her before.

Shen Siyan was the first to react, and she reached out to pull Shen Sixi.

"Sis, don't be angry. Your husband is still here. Don't let him think you—"

"What do you think of me?" Shen Sixi shook off her hand, her eyes sharp. "Do you think my whole family are inhuman beings?"

Shen Siyan stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that such words could come from the mouth of her usually docile and timid older sister.

Liu Ninghui also opened her mouth, staring blankly at Shen Sixi's back.

Shen Zhenghua was so angry that he trembled all over.

"She's gone too far! Now that she's married into the Shentu family, she's got a lot more guts and her temper has suddenly flared up like this!"

"If it weren't for us, she wouldn't even know what makes her qualified to marry into that family!"
