Gu Lili looked at the check in her hand with mixed emotions, "I’ve never made money in my life, and I never expected my first earnings to be such a big one. The first thing I want to do is to renovate the house at Xiliang Mountain."
"I’ll tell Qing Li in a bit to handle this specifically. You can tell him exactly how you want the house to be built."
"Okay, do you know why I asked for ten million and not more?"
Long Yubei certainly didn’t know, "Why?"
"No one thinks having too much money is a burden. If I’d asked for twenty million, she would have given it to . But I still think moderation is key. When people are greedy, no amount is ever enough. Even though Mrs. Gu thanked when she left, *I bet she was cursing in her heart. If she does anything else to upset in the future, it won’t just be ten million.*"
Long Yubei kissed her, "Be good at ho. I’m off to the company."
She looked up and gave him two kisses, "Hubby, will you co back for lunch?"
"I will. With a little sweetheart like you at ho, how could I not?"
She laughed and nodded, "I’ll be waiting for you."
Long Yubei left the house, feeling that having her by his side made him much happier than before.
This was quite a rare feeling.
...
Just a few minutes after he left, Tang Qingli entered, "Young Madam, you’re amazing! I just heard from the Young Master about Mrs. Gu. By the way, the Young Master said you want to rebuild the house at Xiliang Mountain?"
"That’s right. Get so people together first. I’ll draw up a layout of the house I want, and you can show it to the designer for an overall idea. Get it as close as possible to what I envision. That’s my ho, and I’ll be staying there often."
Living there for over twenty years, she loved that ho and hoped to have the chance to frequently return in the future.
"Alright."

Long Fengxi never relented on the matter of reconciliation.
Shen Congmo didn’t push her either. He just wanted to approach it gradually and systematically.
He could tell that Long Fengxi felt the sa way he did, that they still loved each other.
*It just took ti to rebuild trust in the process of getting along again.*
*He wasn’t in a rush, but soone else was.*
"Son, how about these girls?"
Without even looking, Shen Congmo replied, "Mom, you don’t need to show any more. Your daughter-in-law has already been chosen."
"I see you’re still hung up on this," Mrs. Shen said, dropping the photos onto the coffee table with displeasure. "How many years have you and Feng Xi been broken up? You’re still pining after her, but is she pining after you?"
"She feels the sa way I do. We just need ti."
Mrs. Shen was skeptical, "If she was thinking of you, she’d have reconciled already."
"She has her concerns."
"You’re 26 now, Cong Mo. How long are you going to wait?"
"Just this year."
Mrs. Shen pointed a finger at him, "Rember, you said that."
"I said it," he replied with full confidence.
After leaving ho, Shen Congmo sent a text to Long Fengxi, saying:
[My mom just introduced so girls to , but I turned them all down. My heart belongs to you.]
Receiving this ssage brought a warm feeling to Long Fengxi.
However, given that they’d been stalemated for so long after their breakup without any contact, it was he who reached out first to lower his guard.
*She knew exactly how she felt about him.*
Originally, she didn’t want to reply, but after so thought, she picked up her phone and sent a single word, [Okay.]
Even a seemingly perfunctory response was enough to make Shen Congmo beam with joy.
