I am chasing a rough man in the 80s

"Husband and wife are a whole entity, I do the work and you worry about me, so rounding off, it’s best if you do the work," Suizi argued.

"Little women are really unreasonable..." Yu Jingting muttered with a pouting look.

"Mom, after Aunt Qian gives birth to her child, you’ll be the first to visit. Then you can tell her, ’You’re so annoying, how did you give birth to such a good child?’. And from these three directions - ’This kid sleeps soundly, he’s bound to be successful when he grows up’ ’He drinks so much milk, he could become a scientist’ ’He pees so much, he’s definitely extraordinary’. Higlight and compliment those, and if you can add, ’He’s much better than my maiden was as a child’, I guarantee, she’ll never be angry with you again."

"...No sane person would believe that would they? How can you tell if a child swaddled in his blanket is going to be successful or not? Besides, I don’t think anyone can raise a child better than mine."

This damn competitive streak made Chen Lijun find Suizi’s words too hot to handle.

"Where is there so much black and white in the adult world? Complimenting someone won’t cost you anything, I won’t be any less excellent because you compliment other children."

Suizi touched her face and sighed thoughtfully.

"Although sometimes I do worry, because my overflowing talent, wisdom and beauty coexist to change society and sweep the Wang family compound—"

"When did you become so popular, do tell." Yu Jingting was smiling at first, but then he couldn’t help but get a little jealous.

"It’s just a boast, why take it seriously?"

Chen Lijun’s shoulder shook slightly, Fan Huang had awoken at some point, amused by this lively couple.

"You married my beautiful daughter to him, but why hasn’t he grown anywhere else but has a skin getting thicker day by day?" Chen Lijun complained to Jingting.

"Ever considered that it might be innate? Don’t you think my dad’s skin is pretty thick sometimes? Yesterday, I saw you kick him out of the house and he climbed over the wall to get back in. Dad, you need to work out more, that short wall, it took you 10 minutes to climb over, if my wife hadn’t stopped me, I would have helped you."

"!!!" Chen Lijun and Fan Huang froze simultaneously. When did this little guy sneak a peek, and why didn’t they know about it!

"My dad always seems respectable and modest on most days, but it’s just his job restricting him, my dad has potential too, so as they say, daughters usually take after their fathers."

Chen Lijun and Fan Huang’s attention was on the first half of what Yu Jingting said, they laughed and cried at his words, but the focus of Yu Jingting’s sentence was actually at the end.

Suizi exchanged looks with him, a puzzling look that only they understood, the answer has been already given to Fan Huang, it depends on when he’ll understand.

The bridal photoshoot was not done using Fan Huang’s work vehicle due to too many people, Yu Jingting drove a small truck. Chen Lijun was still wondering where he borrowed the vehicle from, she found out when they arrived home.

Chen He stood at the entrance of the old Yu family house with a full smile on his face, waiting for them in a servant greeting the master returning to the palace manner.

"Didn’t I say I’d deliver it to you, why did you come yourself?" Yu Jingting got out of the car and casually asked.

Chen He handed over a cigarette, then took out a lighter and lit it for him.

"How could I trouble you, I was just passing by."

"How’s your wife?" Yu Jingting inquired.

"Very well--thanks to you, the money was just enough." Chen He spoke in a low voice.

Yu Jingting patted his shoulder.

"Don’t frequent my place too much, it’ll raise suspicion."

"No problem, according to the plan over there, I should be getting along well with you right now, getting closer will less likely raise suspicion."

Yu Jingting nodded, he asked a few more questions about Chen He’s household situation, particularly about the child, upon learning that the child had been sent to kindergarten, Yu Jingting was satisfied. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Children should be in their rightful places, hospitals are places where all kinds of people mingle, not a suitable place for children to grow."

"I really have to thank you, the kindergarten you chose for him is really good, he learns a lot every day."

The first thing Yu Jingting did when he took Tongtong under his care is to pick a kindergarten, he specifically searched for kindergartens run by the army, the environment and moral education would be better, although it’s a good place, it’s not easy to get in.

Luckily, one of Yu Jingting’s colleagues had some influence and was able to get Tongtong enrolled.

"I really owe it to you, you’re so caring for my wife and son, I was blinded by money and even had the intention to harm you in the past..." Chen He truly admires Yu Jingting now.

At first, he was intimidated by Yu Jingting’s strength, after spending less than a month together, he was thoroughly won over.

Yu Jingting was a person of great leadership and personal charisma, following his guidance, the small business that Chen He manages began to flourish. Although the paper mill has not been acquired yet, starting a business under such leadership fills Chen He with hope.

Chen Lijun sat in the car, looking at her son-in-law behaving like a grandee, with Chen He fawning around him, Chen Lijun squinted her eyes.

"How did Jingting get mixed up with him? You two didn’t promise him anything, did you?"

"Of course, we made a promise, but that’s between us and him, it doesn’t involve you or my dad."

"How could you be with someone as infamous as him for being profit-driven?" Chen Lijun wanted to get out of the car, but Suizi held her wrist.

"Mom, you don’t look for moral models when hiring staff. Being profit-driven isn’t necessarily a bad thing, he has weaknesses, and we can control him. Those who wear their ambitions on their faces are easier to control than those who hide it."

This was a hard-earned lesson from Suizi’s previous life.

In her previous life, she didn’t see through Li Youcai, Li Youcai was the type to hide his ambitions, if she had seen through Li Youcai’s real intentions to target Suizi from the start, she wouldn’t have nurtured him into a threat.

Chen Lijun frowned as if she was still digesting her daughter’s words, but Fan Huang nodded approvingly.

Chen Lijun wanted to say something, but Fan Huang held her hand and shook his head at her.

"The children are grown up, let them make their own decisions about these things."

Fan Huang could see that Yu Jingting and Suizi worked very harmoniously together.

Even though Suizi seemed to be of little importance on a daily basis, every word she said was heard by Yu Jingting, she was the backbone guiding Yu Jingting’s major decisions.

"And you just let them run wild!" Chen Lijun glared at Fan Huang resentfully, but she didn’t say anything else.

Fan Huang winked at Suizi, Suizi who received the signal immediately clung to Chen Lijun, shaking her arm affectionately.

"We promise not to trouble the family, just trust us this one time."

"Fine, I’m too lazy to care, just don’t make a mess and then have us clean it up later, and no more taking bridal photos without prior consultation."

"Ah about that—" Suizi felt a touch guilty.

Actually, aside from taking wedding photos, she and Yu Jingting had been up to all sorts of little schemes....

Might as well go all the way and dig a hole for mom.
