“We shouldn’t have told him!” Yuan Rui complained with a frown. Zhi Rou held Shaotian in her arms and gazed at her husband. It’s been three weeks since their wedding and father-in-law was on his way to visit his grandson.
“We didn’t tell him anything, he found out about me and investigated. It can’t be helped that father-in-law wants to be with his grandson. He himself said that he thought he wouldn’t get a grandchild from you so be happy Rui. How can you hold a grudge against your father for loving his grandchild?” she asked him lazily.
Yuan Rui had to admit that she was right but what would happen if his father found out the truth about Shaotian in the future? Will he hate him and his son? Looking at his beautiful wife he asked agitated, “How do you think he will react when he finds out the tru
Sitting in a private room in a restaurant, Jiang Hui Yin and Nianzhen were having breakfast. “Really Nianzhen, can you believe how Yuan Rui is humiliating me?! It’s been four weeks, four weeks I say!” she complained holding up four fingers in his face.“Tomorrow is the wedding and he still hasn’t proposed to me?! How is this logical? Will we be married just like that? I still need to prepare myself for all of this. When we get married, what will I wear? I know... silver is his favourite colour, right? I shall dress in silver tomorrow so that we are a matching couple! I can’t believe that we will be getting married soon and I’m going to be Mrs Zhao!” She continued to complain.Nianzhen’s mood went from bitter to sour. He thought that they would be having a peaceful breakfast, just the two of them but here she
Qing Shan arrived at the conference centre with all of their clothes waiting in a room on the ground floor. Zhi Rou was at the hair salon doing her hair and Yuan Rui was at the company getting things done so that he wouldn’t be bothered on his honeymoon.Shaotian Jnr was with his grandfather at the complex waiting for the right time to leave. He told his wife that he’ll meet her at the conference centre in the evening. The Zhao couple blackmailed Yunshen into being the MC of the wedding and he too had to be the best man. Yunshen felt so shit because now the Zhao couple was putting him on the spot and made him seem out to be the bad person.Yunshen was sitting on a table in the dressing room hugging Qing Shan who couldn’t care less about his lovers' complaints, “Ah-Shan, those two are just horrible, can you believe that they said they wou
Yuan Rui wheeled around in the hall with Yunshen at his side, “Welcome Mr Hua, please make yourself comfortable and if there is anything you need, feel free to ask the attendants or my P.A Qing Shan.”“Thank you, but Mr Zhao, I need to ask, what is this gathering about?” Mr Hua asked him after shaking hands. Yuan Rui shook his head, “I just wanted my close friends, family and acquaintances to be here on this special day.”“Special day?” Mr Hua asked looking at him suspiciously, “Could you be proposing to Miss Jiang today?” he asked.“Haha…” he chuckled, “Maybe, maybe not, you’ll just have to wait and see,” Yuan Rui said and wheeled away. He greeted everyone who passed by and by the time he got to the door, everyone was a
Hearing the guards enter, everyone looked around and watched as they stationed themselves all around the hall. Many started suspecting the event as something that wasn’t supposed to happen and started panicking.Yunshen walked up on stage standing between the poles of the arch, “Welcome ladies and gentlemen, friends and partners. Today I welcome you to a very special event. Today will be a very memorable day in the history of the Zhao family as our young master Zhao Yuan Rui takes this step.”These words alone made everyone excited. Zhao family – 'memorable day' went with engagement – history of the Zhao family – Zhao Yuan Rui!“So everyone, will you please help me in welcoming our young master Zhao Yuan Rui,” Yunshen said with his hand held out pointing to the entranc
Zhao Shaotian arrived home and asked the housekeeper for tea. His phone buzzed as he was sitting on the couch. Pulling it out of his pocket, he saw that it was an e-mail from Qing Shan. Opening it, he downloaded all the images that were sent and smiled. He felt so warm inside to see his son smiling while the two of them were together in one picture and the next was one of all three of them.He selected a few and sent them to his assistant with the message: “Get these printed and framed for me.” Not too long after he received the cup of tea, his wife, children and their partners walked in. They entered the living room and saw the head of the house sitting leisurely, drinking tea as if nothing had happened!They all stormed into the living room and Zhao Chou demanded, “Zhao Shaotian, explain yourself!” Seeing the family’s unpleasant
Jiang Hui Yin had forced tears falling down her face as she waited for Zhao Mian to arrive at her place. She emailed Zhao Nianzhen so many times on both his personal and work email accounts but he didn’t answer a single one of them. She tried phoning him but she couldn’t get hold of him and the going to the Zhao residence was impossible because Zhao Shaotian didn’t allow a single one of the Jiang’s to visit saying that they were only allowed back when Zhao Yuan Rui returned from his honeymoon and even though she knew it was hopeless, she tried to call Yuan Rui too but as she suspected, her calls were blocked!Zhao Mian walked into the room and took off her glasses. Jiang Hui Yin shot up from her seat and ran towards her, “Sister Mian!!” She wailed. Zhao Mian could feel her pain as she too was a victim of a cheating partner, “There, there, please don’t cry.&rd
Sitting across a woman with glasses, Jiang Hui Yin and Feng Liya stared intently at her as she told them about her findings. The woman looked at Feng Liya as she spoke, “Thanks to the information about Liu Zhi Rou or well her name, I was able to find information on her.” Taking out a folder from her bag she flipped through it and showed them a picture of Zhi Rou that was taken at an orphanage.“This woman, Liu Zhi Rou, has never been in contact with young master Zhao Yuan Rui until he was admitted into the hospital,” she said. “I knew it!” Jiang Hui Yin smirked. The woman gave her a good look before continuing, “I’ve checked all the records on her and she is a complete nobody but from the information I gathered, she is twenty-three years old, grew up in Z-Town and has three siblings, she is not on good terms with her mother according to her ex-co-workers at t
Zhi Rou smirked at her frowning husband, she was currently driving a golf cart with her husband in the seat beside her holding their baby that was looking ahead of him with his bottle in his mouth and Yuan Rui’s wheelchair in the back.“Zhi Rou, where are we going?” Yuan Rui asked as he stared at her. Zhi Rou smiled, “Why can’t you wait?”Yuan Rui grumbled, “I don’t like surprises, you should know this by now.” Zhi Rou hummed beside him, “I know but I also know that you will love this and it’s better to just keep it a surprise, please just be patient.”Yuan Rui sighed, “Okay but please don’t do this again.” Zhi Rou looked at him and placed her hand on his left knee, rubbing it as she looked back onto the road she said, “Y
A few years later…With the children all grown up and making life horrible for both mother and father always constantly fighting.The doorbell rang one Saturday morning.Zhi Rou walked over to open it and saw the courier with a bouquet of flowers. She signed for it and walked in while she yelled, “Yuan Rui! You have a gift.”He walked down the steps with his phone in his hands and looked at her, confused. “Flowers? From who?”She shrugged and handed him the flowers and crossed her hands the moment he took them. He looked around for the card and peaked at his wife, who had a frown. Placing the flowers down, he opened the envelope and took the card out.
Zhi Rou was out busy with the company work, and the children were at a private school. Yuan Rui was left at home because he no longer wanted to work. He was sitting in the den watching a movie. Jiang Hui Yin walked into the house from the back looking for something to eat when she heard the sound of a gun going off. She went to the kitchen first to make herself something to eat, but then she heard a laugh that she hadn’t heard in a long time. Her heart skipped a beat, recalling how they used to spend time together and loved each other. Thinking about it, she wondered when she stopped loving him. She took in a deep breath and went to him with a sandwich for him, too. Yuan Rui immediately looked at her, shocked when
It has been a few days since Jiang Hui Yin moved in with them. She kept to herself, although she did not want to. Things between Yuan Rui and his wife were tense, as she would bite his head off for every little thing.Zhi Rou held lunch and invited someone who they’d least expected.Zhao Nianzhen stood at the door at a loss. He wasn’t sure what to do or what to say and it was not like he had a guilty conscience, it's just that he betrayed everyone and he was not sure how they were going to act when they saw him.He rang the doorbell, and the butler opened it. To his surprise, Nianzhen smiled at him awkwardly and asked, “Am I late for lunch?”He shook his head. “No, you are not.”He walked i
“So you honestly expect us to live in the same house as the person who tried to kill YOUR husband?!” Zhao Ming Ling screeched.Zhi Rou looked at her and nodded her head. Zhao Shaotian stood behind his daughter and stared at Zhi Rou. His gaze flicked over to his son and he asked, “Did you agree to this?”Yuan Rui pulled his hands out of his pockets and walked away. He was not happy about this whole situation, but his wife enjoyed playing games. Little Shao followed behind his father while Zhi Ling was crawling around.Zhi Rou had the baby in her arms and her son was not happy about it, giving her the silent treatment. Zhi Rou handed the child to Jiang Hui Yin and said, “I am sure you know your way to the servants’ quarter.”“My child and I will not sleep in the servants’ quarters!” She growled at her.Zhi Rou stepped up into her personal space and said in a low voice,
Yuan Rui saw Jiang Hui Yin walking out of the prison doors and climbed out of the car. She looked at him, surprised when she saw him. She was just released from prison with no information and seeing him in front of her, everything made sense.She smirked inwardly, thinking, ‘You are such a fool.’ She smiled at him as she stopped in front of him. Looking into his eyes she said, “I knew you would come for us.”He stared at her momentarily, then looked down at the baby boy in her arms. He took the child from her, confusing her. She also wanted to protest, but then thought that it would be best not to make him angry.He looked at her and saw that she had an uncomfortable expression on her face and said, “I only dropped the charges because you can’t raise this child in prison.” He walked back to the car, climbing in at the back and closed the door.She thought he was going to leave her behind and
Zhi Rou sighed and stared at the wall her son was drawing on. She was rubbing her chin assessing his drawing. Yuan Rui walked over to her and sat down on the floor beside her. He handed her a plate of sandwiches and asked, “So, is he a genius in the making?” Zhi Rou shook her head while she bit down on the chicken sandwich, “No, I just think he is messing with us and that shit isn’t going to wash off.” “We’ll have to paint over it before we move out,” he said to her. She raised a brow asking, “But we just moved into this place,” referring to the estate the Zhao’s owned. He smirked and said, “I don’t actually like this place, weren’t you talking about a house with three or four bedrooms?” She rolled her eyes at him, “I am not about to pack and unpack to make things co
6 months later.Zhi Rou looked glared at her son who was crawling towards the kitchen table. He then climbed up and was standing. He turned to look at his mother and smiled, “Mama.”“Don’t mama me, come here, you need to bath. If I am late for my meeting you will be a motherless child,” she warned him.He started laughing and waddled towards her. She held out her hand for him to grab her hand and she said, “I don’t understand why you are so afraid of walking, you could have been walking years ago but nooo, you choose now only.”She picked him up and stripped him out of his clothes and said, “You are going to bath now and then I am going to dress you up in a suit and we’ll get your sister and head to the office.&
Zhi Rou sat in a wheelchair outside the surgery room and looked at her husband who was sitting not too far from her on a hospital chair eating ice cream. He looked down at her when he felt someone staring at him and smiled at her, “What are you thinking?”“Nothing in particular,” she answered.“Then why the long face? Are you going to cry?” He asked.She shook her head, “No, I’m just wondering how long her hair is going to be. Mine was so crazy to maintain that I ended up cutting it.”“Yes, only after I kicked you out of the house,” Yuan Rui answered with a smirk.Zhao Mian walked over holding Shaotian with her father beside her. She smiled as she walked over t
Zhao Mian and her husband arrived at the hospital shortly after Yuan Rui left and found her parents sitting outside Zhi Rou's room."Mother, father? Is she going to be okay?" She asked looking into the hospital room. She could see the baby had an oxygen tank attached to her in a Neonatal Intensive Care bed.Zhao Chou sighed rocking back and forth with Shaotian asleep in her arms and said, "The doctors said her womb ruptured and there was accessive bleeding. She's in an induced coma to heal and might stay longer in hospital as well. The baby was fine when your brother was still here but she suddenly stopped breathing. They resuscitated her and now she is on oxygen support.”Zhao Mian sighed as she sat down beside her mother and she kissed Shaotian on the head, “He must be really worried about her, babies
