The parents on both sides observed for a while longer.
Finally, they came to a conclusion.
Zhou Qiaoqiao simply didn’t want Xu Mo to continue struggling.
Therefore, she told a little white lie.
Xu Fuqiang and Su Ting were very satisfied.
Indeed, they hadn’t misjudged her!
Even at this point, she was still speaking up for Xu Mo.
Marriage, marriage, they must hurry and make it official!!!!
Xu Fuqiang chuckled awkwardly, "Qiaoqiao, your mom and I know Xu Mo’s real capabilities. You don’t need to defend this rascal anymore."
Su Ting couldn’t help but laugh. She first shot Xu Fuqiang a sharp glance before saying, "Just say what you need to say. Qiaoqiao, a daughter-in-law as wonderful as you, our Xu family’s door will always be open for you. As for that investment matter—"
Su Ting hesitated.
It wasn’t that she didn’t trust her daughter-in-law.
Their son needed to have the ability to pull it off.
Did he have the capability to invest billions in liquid assets into futures all at once?
Of course—he didn’t.
Unless the sun rose from the west.
Zhou Qiaoqiao was momentarily stunned but continued to explain, "Mom, Dad, this is real."
However, the more Zhou Qiaoqiao explained, the more it backfired.
They could only think how amazing this daughter-in-law was!
She was completely beyond their expectations.
If it weren’t for their family’s wealth and confidence.
And most importantly,
Zhou Qiaoqiao didn’t dislike Xu Mo.
In fact, she seemed to genuinely like their son.
Otherwise,
with Zhou Qiaoqiao’s qualifications and abilities,
what kind of husband couldn’t she find?
Xu Mo was so embarrassed that his toes curled.
They could practically curl into a three-bedroom apartment.
Or even a whole new universe.
[Oh no, the female demon—please spare me.]
[Please stop talking, my parents’ favorability meter is already maxed out, it’s overflowing now.]
[Also, I really don’t remember telling you about the stock market!]
[You can’t possibly hear my thoughts, can you?]
‘Ding! Congratulations, host, you’ve received +8888 cash.’
Xu Mo pursed his lips.
Such a lame thing.
He’d definitely toss it to the back of his mind.
Come on, who was he?
He was a man with a system by his side.
A cheat code, a golden finger.
How could he possibly be afraid of being tricked?????
The system would never betray him!!!!
After the meal,
Su Ting and Xu Fuqiang exchanged glances with Zhou Qiaoqiao’s parents.
Their intention was clear.
They wanted Xu Mo to take Zhou Qiaoqiao out for a drive.
In simpler terms,
they were creating some alone time for the two.
This time, An Youyi didn’t interfere.
She might seem a bit clueless, but she understood the basics.
Let Zhou Qiaoqiao have the main course first.
The smaller one could go to her.
Priorities were clear and straightforward.
So, Xu Shi took on the temporary task of looking after An Youyi.
Xu Mo, meanwhile, left with Zhou Qiaoqiao first.
They split up—
In the sports car,
Xu Mo pondered but couldn’t figure it out.
Where did Zhou Qiaoqiao get the insider information?
About buying crude oil bonds.
Since he couldn’t figure it out,
he had no choice but to ask!
Xu Mo tried to calm himself and spoke as steadily as possible,
"How did you analyze that we should buy crude oil futures?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao blinked at him, smiling, her tone utterly captivating.
"Want to know?"
Whenever the female demon used that sultry tone,
Xu Mo knew something bad was coming.
She was definitely setting a trap for him.
But he had no choice but to step into it!!!
He was just too curious.
"Yes," Xu Mo nodded stiffly.
Zhou Qiaoqiao counted on her fingers, her smile radiant, "If you want to know, eat the candy first. There are four packs left. You’re not saving them for the wedding, are you?"
Xu Mo’s expression froze.
[Oh no, the female demon is beyond the reach of the law now.]
[Darn it, why is this woman so sweet? She always has men wrapped around her finger. My plot—]
After an internal struggle—
though it didn’t last long—
Xu Mo’s curiosity about the source of the information outweighed everything else.
So, the two stopped at a nearby upscale hotel.
To Xu Mo’s great surprise,
the female demon had already prepared the "tools of the crime."
Xu Mo laughed bitterly, "Do you carry this around often?"
"You mean this? It’s just in case," Zhou Qiaoqiao waved the small candy wrapper, her tone dripping with allure.
Xu Mo regretted it.
He shouldn’t have asked.
Sigh—
Well, they were already here.
He had no choice.
The two were in perfect sync.
They didn’t go all the way.
The meaning of marriage wasn’t as shallow as mere biology.
First and foremost, they were human.
That was a basic need.
But not a necessary one.
Some things only held meaning at the right time, in the right place, with the right person.
Xu Mo thought this way.
And he acted on it.
He didn’t push for the next step.
Zhou Qiaoqiao, on the other hand, was delighted.
If Xu Mo had wanted to proceed,
she would have half-heartedly agreed. (Half-hearted = 100% willing.)
But Xu Mo didn’t.
Tonight’s events left Zhou Qiaoqiao feeling elated.
When people are happy,
they tend to feel more energetic and motivated.
Full of vigor.
That’s how Zhou Qiaoqiao felt at first.
But as time went on,
she realized things weren’t as simple as they seemed.
Meanwhile, on the other side,
Xu Shi wasn’t in a hurry to take An Youyi home.
Instead, she took her around to explore.
Partly to relax,
and partly out of curiosity.
She wanted to know where her brother had moved to recently.
And what her dear An Youyi had been up to there.
"An Jie, you’ve been staying at my brother’s place, right?"
"How’s the neighborhood? What’s the environment like?"
Xu Shi asked casually.
And An Youyi replied just as casually,
"Yes, it’s fine. Everything’s good."
Whether it was casual or not,
Xu Shi couldn’t tell.
Because that’s just how An Youyi talked.
Sometimes her words were incomplete.
Sometimes they made no sense.
Xu Shi was used to it.
Alright, that’s it for now. Goodnight, everyone~
I’ll post everything today. The next few days will probably be the same since it’s the New Year, and things are pretty busy here.
villain is the number one simp for the book's leading female protagonist, Shen Wan'er. As expected, he later becomes a tool for the main character to show off and slap faces, ultimately meeting a tragic end with his family ruined and his life in shambles. Fortunately, he awakens the [Universal Pure Love System], which allows him to earn points by performing acts of pure love. To change his fate, Gu Yan makes a decisive choice to seek warmth and companionship with the book's biggest villain—Cold Qingqiu. ........... My name is Leng Qingqiu. To find the murderer who killed my parents years ago, I deliberately blinded myself so that everyone would lower their guard around me. Just as I was secretly accumulating power and capital according to my initial plan, a man walked into my world. "Lengleng, Qingqing, Qiuqiu, which nickname do you prefer?" I don't like any of them. You'd better leave quickly! "Why aren't you saying anything? How about I call you my baby wife?" Leng Qingqiu thinks to herself, this man is truly annoying! (Stubborn pure love warrior + single female lead + true pure love + 1v1)
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
n Our Village Many years later, Xiushui Village had transformed from a remote, impoverished hamlet into the renowned and flourishing Xiushui City of the Shifang Continent. All of this, solely because it was the birthplace of the Shifang Continent's number one sect—the Lingxian Sect. This is the story of a group of village youths, family, and friends, building a sect and growing together. Lin Xiao: As the sect master, my days are filled with countless tasks. Cultivating really gets in the way of building the sect. System: Received. Understood. Arranging it immediately.
