Jian Nian and her family have been living in this neighborhood for decades. Everybody is very familiar with each other. It is no exaggeration to say that they watched Jiang Nian grow up. So, it is no surprise that the news that Jian Nian has come back from the city with a boyfriend spread all over the neighborhood. There was no one who hadn’t heard of it!

According to the rumors, Jiang Nian’s boyfriend was tall, handsome and a gentleman. This time, he especially came from A City to see Jiang Nian. It could be seen at first glance that he was a great catch!?Moreover, some now say that the young man came here prepared to ask for Jian Nian’s hand in marriage and that they may get married immediately after she graduates! Others say that the car he used looks quite expensive so his family should be well-off.

Jiang Dad was still busy teaching students so he knew nothing of these things. So, it was only Jiang Mom who upon entering the community was greeted with congratulations from Wang Dawei, the neighbor next door, Liu Ayi, who lived downstairs and Zhang Dajie, who lived upstairs. Congratulations? Of course, because she has a son-in law!

It was then that Jiang mother finally got to know that this time, her daughter actually brought back a boyfriend?

She then refused to take care of these people. She bid farewell to a few enthusiastic spectators and went upstairs. This bad girl clearly said that she did not have a boyfriend. If she has no boyfriend, then what is this mess today?

For now, she decided to pretend like she didn’t know anything. If she sees that the little liar confesses by herself, she would consider not punishing her.

Who knew that when she had opened the door, she would be greeted by the sight of Jiang Nian praying in front of the Buddha statue in the living room.

Jiang Nian’s posture was straight, her hands were clasped together, her mouth was filled with devotion, and her sincerity was out of the world.

Jiang Mama was inexplicable: “Jiang Nian, what are you doing here?”

Jiang Nian got up and said solemnly: “Mom, you don’t understand.”

Jiang Mama: “.. ..???” She certainly didn’t understand!

Jiang Nian looked anxious, and seriously asked: “Mom, I think our family should worship another God of Wealth so our fortune can come back. What do you think?”

.... God of Wealth??Jiang mom was now concerned about her daughter’s mental state. Who would suddenly ask to worship another kind of God?

Jiang’s mother coughed slightly: “Don’t try to change the subject! Do you think that you will be able to trick me? If it wasn’t for our gossipy neighbors your father and I would have been kept in the dark.”

She looked at Jiang Nian’s innocent face and could not help but poke her forehead, “So stupid! Your boyfriend is here to see you and you still won’t tell us the truth?”

Jiang Nian was in no mood to introduce her devil boyfriend. She just wants to bring the God of Wealth back home!

Although she was not in the mood to introduce her devil boyfriend, she still couldn’t resist Jiang Mom. Finally, she remembered what Shen Ming said before departure and informed her: “Shen Ming said that he will come home again tomorrow so you and dad can meet him at that time.”

Jiang mother was stupified: “He is already coming over to our house? You are too fast!! I am still not ready for anything!” (T/N: Hahaha, for a moment there, I felt like Shen Ming was coming over to see the mom instead. )

Jiang Nian: “..”

Jiang mother is quite open-minded. Her daughter is an adult, sooner or later she will have to get married and have children. As elders, they can only check to make sure that their daughter has found a good family.

Jiang Nian did not want to manage her mother anymore. After eating dinner, she went back to her room to pray some more, she wants to buy a God of Wealth back!?It must be that her prayers are not sincere enough, so there are so many devils running after her five million!

Probably because obsession was too deep, she spent the night in nightmares. She almost fell off the bed the next morning. Upon staggering out of the door, she saw Jiang Dad posing in the living room, wearing a suit. The expensive tea set that they were reluctant to use was displayed on the table. ?Jiang mother even served food from outside. She also got her hair done- her beautiful long hair cascading down her back with a delicate hairpin on top. She looked like a gentle and caring mother indeed.

It’s a pity that when she saw Jiang Nian who just woke up, she burst out in flames: “You still haven’t freshened up yet! Go get ready! Look at what time it is!”

Jiang Nian flatly responded: “.. Ok.”

Shen Ming came at exactly 10:30. The door bell rang while Jiang Nian still was washing the dishes in the kitchen. She immediately sprinted over to open the door. She heard Jiang Dad coughing a few times, and saw her mom using her eyes to convey something.

Today, Shen Ming also wore a black suit with a white shirt. He looked gentlemanly and handsome.

He bought some fruits, good wine and some nutrients such as ginseng bird’s nest. He also specially prepared a famous pen for Jiang Dad, and gave a silk scarf to Jiang Mama which was guaranteed to buy people’s hearts.

Jiang’s dad coolness has long since disappeared in shine of Shen Ming’s excellent performance. Even Jiang’s mother secretly wondered how her silly daughter could find such a good boyfriend. Is it really true that opposites attract?

When they asked about Shen Ming’s family, he euphemistically said that his family was doing business. After studying abroad, he worked here for a few years. Now he is ready to come out and said: “I have planned what I want to do in the future. After working for a few years, I now have enough foundation and experience. So, uncle and aunt can rest assured that she won’t have to suffer with me .”

Uncle and aunt were very relieved.

Jiang’s mother also said: “It’s okay, young people should suffer. These struggles are a part of life.”

Jiang Nian: “..” (T/N: Awwww.. And she was a precious little baby just a few days ago xD )

When it comes to Shen Ming, no one can be dissatisfied. He is too good, he also has the capital to be proud. A good Family lineage is just an embellishment for him.

Of course, if he hadn’t come after her for the five million, he would be much better. ==”

Jiang Dad and Shen Ming drank a few cups at the dinner table. Jiang Dad could certainly not out drink Shen Ming, who is used to intrigues in the mall. He quickly fell down and was then taken back to the bedroom to rest. Jiang mother could not bear the embarrassment. She kept repeating that he is a bit too old and that Jiang Nian should take Shen Ming to her room to rest as well.

Jiang Nian wanted to tell her that Shen Ming’s capability to drink is very good. Such a small amount won’t do anything to him so do not worry. Who knew that when she looked back, she saw that Shen Ming put his forehead on the table with a dizzy look in his eyes.”

She glared at him: “What are you doing? After a while, my mother may come in to check. What would that make you look like?”

Shen Ming chuckled softly and caressed her soft long hair: “Jiang Nian, I really like you.”

Jiang Nian’s heartbeat started speeding up. He very restrained man. He rarely shows his true heart to other people. He probably said that he likes her when chasing her at the time.(T/N: tbh, I really wanna know how they got together xD It is hard to imagine Shen Ming chasing anyone, even if it is Jiang Nian. :O ) After that, he rarely mentioned it ever again. This time, he confessed all of a sudden.. It seems that he really did drink too much this time.|

He then kissed her..

.........................................................................................

Jiang mother did the dishes and went back to her room for a nap. She finally ended up falling asleep beside her drunken husband. ?When she got up the next day, she was Shen Ming sitting in the living room, reading a book serenely.

Jiang Mom pushed open her daughter’s room and saw her huddled in bed, chanting prayers in her sleep to.. the God of Wealth...?

God of wealth?
