A top student transmigrates into a book: Reborn in the 90s and rises to prominence.

Jiang Zheyuan noticed that Shao Moli's hand was bleeding, but because Shao Moli's fingers were slightly curled up, the blood only stained the lines of her palm and did not drip down. However, anyone who saw her hand would notice that she was bleeding.

Jiang Zheyuan always kept in mind that he and she had no connection whatsoever in this life.

She was just his fiancée's older sister.

He handed Shao Wanwan a piece of paper, then whispered a reminder: "Your sister's hand looks like it's bleeding."

Shao Wanwan was speechless.

"Go give it to her! Why do you have to report this to me?" Shao Wanwan couldn't be more eager for Jiang Zheyuan and Shao Moli to get closer and closer.

In the current social context, it's sometimes difficult to explain when a man and a woman are alone together.

But there are several people together!

Does Jiang Zheyuan really need to be so discreet? What a blockhead!

Jiang Zheyuan stared blankly at Shao Wanwan's neat back, feeling as if a stone had been thrown into his heart. He found himself uncontrollably starting to care about Shao Wanwan's attitude towards him.

He had lived a lifetime and originally thought he would never have any possessive desire for Shao Wanwan. He only wanted to change her, help her, and then fulfill Uncle Shao's last wish.

If that's all there is to it, what does the current desolation amount to?

Zhang Suran had been keeping an eye on Jiang Zheyuan out of the corner of her eye. She saw the paper in Jiang Zheyuan's hand, followed his gaze to Shao Moli's hand, snatched the paper from Jiang Zheyuan's hand, shoved it into Shao Moli's hand, and cursed in a voice only Shao Moli could hear: "Disgraceful thing."

Then she caught up with Jiang Zheyuan and said very enthusiastically, "Son-in-law Jiang, you have helped me so much, I must treat you to a meal. But I am not familiar with this area. Do you have any recommendations? You can take me there, and I will pay."

Zhang Suran's words came from the bottom of her heart.

With Shao Pei's matter settled, it was a major milestone for Zhang Suran.

Jiang Zheyuan spearheaded this whole affair, effectively binding Shao Pei deeply to the Jiang family. The Jiang family is so wealthy and powerful; she had originally wanted to freeload but was worried about being scolded by Shao Guanghua. Now that the Jiang family was offering themselves up for her, she was overjoyed. She was so happy she wanted to sing. It was just a small amount of money to treat them, and she couldn't be happier.

Jiang Zheyuan always treated his elders with respect and warmth. He said politely, "The Eight Treasures Tofu at the Eight Treasures Restaurant is quite good. I was just about to invite you to try it, Auntie. Please don't be shy, let me treat you!"

At this point, Jiang Zheyuan had already given Zhang Suran face and dignity.

Zhang Suran agreed, which was great. She didn't have to pay anything, got a free meal, and solved Shao Pei's problem. It was a win-win situation.

However, Zhang Suran was too eager to climb the social ladder by associating with the Jiang family.

The atmosphere was so good that she became carried away and started finding fault without realizing it.

“Son-in-law Jiang, I heard that your mother… that is, your mother-in-law, is also in this city. Why don’t you invite her to have dinner with us, and then invite the rest of your family as well, so we can have a meal together? The more the merrier! It will also be good for Shao Pei to get to know you. Shao Pei will be relying on your family from now on. You know, I’m not very educated, but Shao Pei has read a few books. He has a bright future if you nurture him well.”

Zhang Suran completely forgot how sudden her arrival had been.

Moreover, their purpose was to resolve Shao Pei's matter.

Now that Shao Pei's matter is resolved, it's time to stop while we're ahead and not make a big fuss on the spot.

To put it bluntly, my relationship with Jiang Zheyuan is still far from settled!

Even if there's a single stroke, it's drawn with a pencil and can be erased at any time.

Isn't what she said clearly treating Jiang Zheyuan as a sucker?

He's not even a son-in-law of the Shao family yet, and he's already got Jiang Zheyuan wrapped around his little finger. This is outrageous...

Shao Wanwan was starting to wonder whether Jiang Zheyuan actually wanted her to marry him, or if she wanted to ruin their marriage.

Upon hearing this, Shao Moli lowered her head in shame.

Shao Moli had always known that her mother was mercenary. In her grandmother's words, she had only been a farmer for a few years before becoming a worker, but she had already picked up a lot of bad habits. She was petty and snobbish, and had no human qualities at all.

At the time, she defended Zhang Suran, saying that her grandmother shouldn't say things like that.

Now I feel that Grandma was too lenient.

Although she didn't like Shao Wanwan, her grandmother had told her that women must take marriage seriously and never settle, otherwise they would suffer endlessly. She should carefully investigate before marrying someone and be devoted to him after marriage...

But don't men also examine and value these things?

Zhang Suran's actions showed her absolutely no consideration for Shao Wanwan.

If it were her, she would probably be so embarrassed that she would cry herself to sleep.

She almost subconsciously looked at Shao Wanwan, with a very complicated emotion, wanting to see how Shao Wanwan would react.

Jiang Zheyuan didn't have much contact with Zhang Suran in his previous life.

Because Shao Moli wasn't very close to her family.

Especially after Shao Moli agreed on alimony with Zhang Suran and Shao Guanghua, they could only meet once a year at most.

Both he and Shao Moli were too busy, spending most of their time away from home for their respective careers.

In his previous life, even just a few encounters were enough to make him fear this mother-in-law.

But after all that has happened, and now that he's back to being nineteen, he's no longer afraid. Because the biggest thing is nothing more than life and death. He's already died once, and he has more life experience than others. Moreover, he has his own mission in this life, so he will no longer be afraid of the living person in front of him.

He didn't even wait for Shao Wanwan to speak before saying with a smile, "This time we were not good at entertaining you. Wanwan and I haven't had our engagement banquet yet... When we have the engagement banquet, we will definitely treat both families to a proper feast so that they can get to know each other."

Shao Wanwan glanced at Jiang Zheyuan. Was this guy really nineteen?

These words subtly reminded Zhang Suran that it was a bit too early to be so presumptuous before even having an engagement banquet. She had just arranged Shao Pei's engagement, so she needed to calm down for a while, and the meeting of both families should be done in a formal setting.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Suran's face flushed red and then turned pale. Although she was unhappy and knew she had gone a bit too far, she still couldn't lose face.

“Our Wanwan is a top-notch beauty. Whether the engagement banquet is held or not, your marriage is not going to run away. It’s also my fault for being abrupt. I forgot that your family members are all busy people with status and position. Let’s go eat together!” Zhang Suran said, winking at Shao Wanwan, and then pulled Jiang Zheyuan out of the cold drink bar.

What a meal!

Since Jiang Zheyuan was treating, Zhang Suran and Shao Pei acted as if they had never eaten before, ordering whatever was expensive and whatever they had never tried before.

There were five of us, and we ordered twelve dishes. The waiter kindly reminded us several times that extravagance and waste are not encouraged nowadays.

Zhang Suran said she couldn't finish the food and wanted to pack it up, completely disregarding Shao Wanwan's image.
