If we swapped lives, I'd be the CEO and you'd take care of the kids.

The two returned to the living room, just as they were about to start their meal.

Shen Yingchu is working overtime today and won't be home for dinner. The people at the dinner table still maintain the habit of not talking while eating.

After the meal, Madam Shen chatted with the four men for a few minutes. Each of them had their own thoughts on their own, so Madam Shen waved them away. "A son is no longer under his mother's control once he grows up. Let him be!"

Zhu Tingyue went upstairs on her own, but Shen Yanqiu pulled her to the garden.

Returning to the same place, neither of them looked too happy.

"Is something the matter?" Zhu Tingyue didn't know his intention. Could it be that he had found a way to switch the two of them back?

Hearing her question, Shen Yanqiu sneered, "What do you mean by this today?"

The question was vague and ambiguous. Zhu Tingyue didn't know if he was asking about what happened at the hospital that morning or what had just occurred here. She hadn't done anything wrong, had she? What had she done to offend him this time?

"what's up?"

"You do not know?"

"Should I know?"

"..."

"Zhu Tingyue!" Shen Yanqiu began again.

"Hey, I'm here. Can you tell me what's up? I'm playing a riddle game here."

Why didn't you give me oranges today?

Why didn't you give him oranges? Didn't she already give them to him? It's just that he didn't want them!

"Didn't I already give it to you? You're the one who didn't want it!"

"Just because I don't want it doesn't mean you won't give it to me?"

He's unreasonable yet arrogant; he's even learned to say the same things he's told!

Zhu Tingyue opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything for a long time. So this is what it feels like to face your past self!

"Okay, okay, I apologize, alright?"

"The Way!"

"I've already said it!" Zhu Tingyue looked puzzled. What else was there to say?

Shen Yanqiu was holding her arms, waiting for her apology, but she stopped after saying just one sentence. What kind of apology was that?

"Not satisfied?"

Zhu Tingyue couldn't understand it; his temper was getting worse every day! No, it was getting worse with each passing day. His temper was even worse now than it was this morning!

"Okay, okay, I apologize. I'm sorry, Miss Zhu. Please don't be angry. It's all my fault, please don't take it to heart. If you're really angry, you can hit me a couple of times." As she spoke, she reached for Shen Yanqiu's hand and started to slap herself.

Shen Yanqiu withdrew her hand, neither saying whether she was satisfied or not, but the expression on her face softened somewhat.

"Is this acceptable? Is it sincere enough? If you're not satisfied, I'll say more!"

"No need, next time..."

"There won't be a next time, don't worry."

"Humph!"

Shen Yanqiu finally stopped saying anything!

Zhu Tingyue was absolutely convinced that Shen Yanqiu was addicted to role-playing, mimicking her appearance perfectly. Now, who could tell the two of them apart?

"Where's your phone?" Zhu Tingyue had appeased him and now it was time to get on with her own business.

"what?"

"Take it out, I need to use it."

She took the phone from Shen Yanqiu, fiddled with it for a while, and when the phone was returned to Shen Yanqiu, the balance in the card had decreased by one zero.

Why did you transfer my money?

"What do you mean by your money? Shen Yanqiu, look carefully, okay? This is my money."

Zhu Tingyue didn't even look at him, and quickly took out her phone to accept the call.

It's so good to be rich! She no longer has to eat the terrible food in the company cafeteria!

"Don't you have money on your phone?"

Zhu Tingyue's eyes widened: "You're not talking about the ten yuan you left me, are you? Shen Yanqiu, do you have any conscience? Ask yourself honestly, what can ten yuan do? Would you take it if I gave it to you?"

"..."

Shen Yanqiu had been living a life of luxury for a few days. A few days ago, he could have listed a long list of uses for ten yuan, but now, he couldn't even open his mouth!

"talk!"

Zhu Tingyue persisted, getting angry just thinking about it. It was only ten yuan, and Shen Yanqiu had the nerve to bring it up? In the past, she used to spend tens or hundreds of thousands every day. She wouldn't even blink at millions or tens of millions, but now she had saved ten yuan for three days without spending a single penny!

Is that enough? If not, transfer some more.

Shen Yanqiu's voice was very soft. He should be ashamed of his own words. He didn't even look at the hard life he had put himself through. He had enjoyed all the blessings while he had suffered all the sins.

Zhu Tingyue said irritably, "I'll transfer this much for today. You can transfer it to me regularly from now on. Don't make me rush you. If I still don't have money to spend, I'll never forgive you!"

"Okay, if you're short of money, just let me know, and I'll transfer it to you."

That made sense. Zhu Tingyue was satisfied and started to urge him to leave: "It's too late, you should go home!"

Shen Yanqiu glanced at the time: "It's only eight o'clock."

"What's wrong with eight o'clock? It's dark, can't you see anything? Aren't your parents worried about you going home so late? By the way, did you even tell them you were coming out?"

"I told them, and my parents both agree."

Shen Yanqiu has developed a good habit of reporting when she goes out and returning home. Her parents are extremely satisfied and repeatedly exclaim that their daughter is sensible!

"Are they alright? Have they...?" She wanted to ask Zhu's parents if they missed her, but "Zhu Tingyue" was right there at home! How could they have found out?

"It's alright, you don't need to worry about them. Why don't you go back this weekend? Just say I invited you, what do you say?"

Sensing her low spirits, Shen Yanqiu patted her shoulder to comfort her.

"No need, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and it would be bad if I gave myself away."

Zhu Tingyue refused, worried that she would burst into tears if she saw her parents, which would arouse suspicion.

"Then let's find a solution as soon as possible! Is the Master Liaowu you mentioned reliable?"

"It's alright! After all, you never know with things like this. But he has a big reputation, shall we go check him out this weekend?"

"Okay! Thank you for your help!"

Zhu Tingyue unusually refrained from arguing with him. Although his temper was getting worse, he was still quite reliable when it came to getting things done.

"I'm doing this for myself too."

Shen Yanqiu dared not take credit, as he was also involved and it wasn't all for Zhu Tingyue's sake.

"What? Is Miss Zhu having a hard time?" Zhu Tingyue asked with a smile, waiting for his reply.

“It’s not that it’s bad,” Shen Yanqiu thought for a moment and then said, “It’s just that it doesn’t belong to me, and I feel like I’ve stolen the happiness that belongs to you.”

His eyes were dull, and he felt somewhat guilty towards Zhu Tingyue.

Zhu Tingyue was surprised to hear his thoughts: "How could that be? I'm experiencing your life too! Life is full of ups and downs, and no one has a smooth journey, except for myself!"

Having grown up in a privileged environment, how could she have such insights?

Noticing his surprise and doubt, Zhu Tingyue asked, "Did you think I was otherworldly?"

"I just didn't expect you to say that," Shen Yanqiu said honestly.

"I've just become a bit more financially secure, lived a bit more freely, spent money without restraint, and accumulated more wealth..."

"Stop!" She was getting more and more outrageous. Although she was talking about reality, it just didn't feel right.

She's showing off! These are things that ordinary people could never get even after several lifetimes of hard work, and in her words, they're nothing more than insignificant trifles.
