Ji Linqui stood frozen in place, then asked again, "What did you say?"

Jiang Wang chuckled, "Even before getting married, it's like this. Let me tell you, your mom—"

Ji Linqui leaned in for a kiss.

The kiss came too suddenly, almost bumping their teeth, but they couldn't hide their excitement.

Jiang Wang thought Linqui must be really happy today; he used to be too nervous to even hold hands in the office. "What did my mom say? Did she give you a hard time?"

"She asked for your birth date and time, I refused to give it, worried about what if it's not compatible. But your mom said, at the very least, we should pick an auspicious date for the wedding."

Ji Linqui's eyes sparkled with joy, more than when he received his college acceptance letter. He stood up, then sat back down, stood up again, and suddenly leaned in to plant a kiss on Jiang Wang's forehead. 

Just then, the secretary walked in carrying some files: "Sorry, I'm disappearing now!" The door slammed shut.

Ji Linqui laughed heartily as he sat across from Jiang Wang, and sighed, "I never expected them to agree. It's so hard to understand the older folks' minds, but to get to this point wasn't easy."

"But your initial groundwork was done well," Jiang Wang smiled. "When your mom wanted to leave with you all, with work not handed over, the house not rented out, and luggage not packed, she was actually waiting for you all to refuse and resist."

"That night when we were packing, my dad even said twice to stay first. I intentionally stayed silent, keeping to myself." Ji Linqui deeply understood their mindset: if he had resisted, she would have been provoked and gotten angrier, but returning to the hometown without a word, she would feel indebted and want to do something to compensate.

Jiang Wang and the two old folks hadn't expected Ji Linqui to be so straightforward.

Suddenly, Jiang Wang had to start preparing for the wedding, sitting in his office chair feeling like he was floating in the clouds, light as air. No matter how he looked at Ji Linqui, it didn't feel enough. He carefully said, "After giving it some thought, I think a traditional Chinese style would be best. I want to lift the red veil for you, my husband." Ji Linqui's ears turned red upon hearing this, about to say something when Jiang Wang's phone rang.

He decided to discuss the details of the veil later, and with a tap, he cheerfully answered the call, getting the name right this time, "Sis? How have you been lately?"

Du Wenjuan's voice trembled, "Wangwang, can you come to Cizhou? Take me and Yinyin away. Chang Hua—he's—he's gone mad."

Jiang Wang's smile vanished instantly, he stood up, quickly put on a coat, and headed out, "Are you safe now? Where are you? I'll find a friend in Cizhou to pick you up first."

Du Wenjuan's voice was barely audible, her breath coming in hurried gasps, "Not very safe. Yinyin, I've left her temporarily at a friend's house. Chang Hua doesn't know where she is, but I... I'm hiding in the bathroom right now."

Jiang Wang's voice turned stern, "Did he hit you? I swear, I'll tear his tendons out!" Ji Linqui followed closely behind, signaling the secretary to book the earliest flight to Cizhou.

Chang Hua's career was on the rise, with Jiang Wang's connections inadvertently supporting him, his income was much better than in previous years without Yinyin. Moreover, with Du Wenjuan being strong-willed, despite originally being hired by Jiang Wang, she insisted on paying for herself, leaving Chang Hua with few expenses. However, during the time when Du Wenjuan was busy taking care of the children and he was busy with overtime work, Chang Hua developed a gambling addiction.
