Seeing that Lan Ruoruo was losing her temper, Haitong interjected, \u201cMiss Lan, why don\u2019t you talk back? Keep arguing with Lao Qi\u2014don\u2019t let him win!\u201d<\/p>\n

Both turned to look at her.<\/p>\n

Haitong gave a sheepish smile. \u201cYou two bickering is really entertaining.\u201d<\/p>\n

They\u2019d been at it for years, and by now, they understood each other too well.<\/p>\n

If it weren\u2019t for all the verbal sparring, sparks might\u2019ve flown between them.<\/p>\n

This trip to Yangcheng with the kids wasn\u2019t just for fun\u2014Haitong was also carrying a heavy mission from their grandmother, second uncle, and second aunt: to pressure the seventh child into marriage. The task of matchmaking had landed on her, the eldest sister-in-law.<\/p>\n

To her, Lao Qi and Lan Ruoruo seemed more like a pair of bickering lovers than enemies.<\/p>\n

\u201cSister-in-law.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSister Tong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both called out to her at the same time.<\/p>\n

Haitong just liked to watch the drama and didn\u2019t mind the chaos.<\/p>\n

At that moment, Lan Ruoruo\u2019s secretary arrived with an ice pack.<\/p>\n

She glanced at Zhan Wei\u2019s swollen face, then at Haitong and the two children, and finally back at her own vice president.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s fine. You can go back to work. I\u2019ll return to the office later,\u201d Lan Ruoruo said.<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t want her secretary to witness her applying a facial mask to Zhan Wei.<\/p>\n

The secretary nodded respectfully and left, full of unspoken questions.<\/p>\n

As soon as the secretary was gone, Zhan Wei scooted his chair closer.<\/p>\n

He sat down beside Lan Ruoruo.<\/p>\n

That handsome face\u2014now swollen\u2014leaned in close. He tapped the swollen spot and said, \u201cLan Ruoruo, hurry up and put the mask on me. My face is so swollen it\u2019s ruining my good looks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the media catches wind of this, my reputation will be destroyed\u2014thanks to you. If I can\u2019t get a wife because of this, you\u2019ll have to compensate me with one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lan Ruoruo snapped, \u201cI didn\u2019t ruin your reputation, and I haven\u2019t seen you getting married anyway. If you\u2019re still single, that\u2019s on you. Don\u2019t put it on me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll compensate you with a wife, sure. Want one? I can get you one in a minute. I\u2019ve got plenty of young female employees in my company. I\u2019m kind enough not to stick you with a bad one.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll find you a wife as compensation. Want one? If you do, I can get you one in a minute. There are plenty of young female employees in my company. I still have a conscience\u2014I wouldn\u2019t give you a bad wife.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll pick someone excellent with good character.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it works out, you have to treat me to a wedding banquet and give me a proper thank-you gift. I won\u2019t settle for less than a business contract worth one billion yuan.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Wei: \u201c\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

If she\u2019s seriously offering him a wife as compensation\u2026 would he even dare accept?<\/p>\n

Definitely not.<\/p>\n

When he marries, he wants someone he genuinely likes\u2014someone with good character and a clean family background. Ideally, she should also be from a family equal in status to theirs.<\/p>\n

All six of his sisters-in-law and his brothers have well-matched marriages.<\/p>\n

He can\u2019t afford to fall short in comparison.<\/p>\n

Character remains the top priority.<\/p>\n

Every woman who\u2019s married into the Zhan family\u2014whether in the older generation or his sisters-in-law\u2019s generation\u2014has proven to be a good wife. He won\u2019t break that legacy.<\/p>\n

His grandmother always said that a good woman could bring prosperity for three generations.<\/p>\n

The Zhan family\u2019s continued success is, in part, thanks to the wise and capable women who joined their lineage.<\/p>\n

As Lan Ruoruo spoke, she was already in action\u2014holding an ice pack and gently applying it to Zhan Wei\u2019s face.<\/p>\n

They\u2019d been feuding for years, but she\u2019d always known he was handsome.<\/p>\n

And he certainly knew she was beautiful.<\/p>\n

Still, the two had never been this close before\u2014so close that Lan Ruoruo started to question whether they were truly enemies.<\/p>\n

She had to admit, this man was really good-looking\u2014the most handsome one she\u2019d ever encountered.<\/p>\n

But it wasn\u2019t just his appearance. He was capable too. Many men grumbled behind his back that he left them no room to thrive in business.<\/p>\n

Countless businesswomen admired Zhan Wei. Most of them were older and had no shot at marrying him, but that didn\u2019t stop them from constantly trying to set him up.<\/p>\n
