It\u2019s been about five years now. I have to admit, she\u2019s both capable and formidable. Having a rival like her makes life less boring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Wei clearly held Lan Ruoruo in high regard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we weren\u2019t in the same industry, I\u2019d genuinely admire her. She holds a prominent position in Yangcheng\u2019s business world and is the daughter of the influential Lan family. She\u2019s considered a top candidate for marriage by many veteran entrepreneurs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the young elites in Yangcheng prefer to work with her rather than date her. Maybe they feel she\u2019s too competent, too dazzling. Being with her might make them feel overshadowed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To Zhan Wei, the so-called young talents of Yangcheng couldn\u2019t match Lan Ruoruo\u2019s abilities.<\/p>\n<p>He felt that being with someone like Lan Ruoruo would crush his confidence and damage his self-esteem.<\/p>\n<p>Their admiration for her was sincere\u2014but only from a distance. If asked to marry her, they would decline.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why her many blind dates ended in failure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s just because they\u2019re not good enough for Miss Lan. She\u2019s outstanding\u2014there will be someone equally exceptional who truly appreciates her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSister-in-law, do you really like Lan Ruoruo that much? You just met her today, but it feels like you\u2019re already taking her side.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Wei grumbled at his sister-in-law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m your family! Lan Ruoruo is my archrival\u2014my mortal enemy!\u201d he said, slapping his cheek. \u201cShe even slapped me! If she weren\u2019t a woman, I would\u2019ve hit back already. I swear, if I didn\u2019t beat her into the ground, I wouldn\u2019t be Zhan Wei.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Serenity replied honestly, \u201cI do like Miss Lan. I don\u2019t think she\u2019s nearly as awful as you make her out to be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s a good person, I won\u2019t deny that\u2014but she only shows me her worst side, so in my eyes, she is awful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou think she\u2019s so awful, yet you shamelessly asked her to treat you to a meal?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Wei: \u201c\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How did his sister-in-law know?<\/p>\n<p>He had called Lan Ruoruo behind her back.<\/p>\n<p>Did that damn woman call his sister-in-law? Did she complain about him?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe slapped me\u2014shouldn\u2019t she buy me a meal as an apology?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe already apologized and even put ice on your face to reduce the swelling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Serenity looked at him with a smile. She couldn\u2019t help but feel that Zhan Wei and Lan Ruoruo were like destined rivals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSister-in-law, don\u2019t look at me like that. Lan Ruoruo and I are sworn enemies\u2014we have a lifelong grudge. Don\u2019t start developing feelings for her. If you do, I\u2019ll get nervous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When the other brothers had been in relationships, their partners all knew his eldest sister-in-law, and they would often become close friends with her.<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Wei was starting to worry that his sister-in-law might try to set him up with Lan Ruoruo. After all, she came here with the mission of encouraging marriage, and he feared that in her eyes, any woman might seem like a good match for him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy are you so nervous? I just think Miss Lan is nice and easy to get along with. Even Beibei likes her. After she slapped you, Beibei still wanted her to hold him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeventh Brother, you\u2019re not that young anymore. You\u2019re already thirty-one. Half this year has already passed, and in another six months, you\u2019ll be thirty-two. If you don\u2019t settle down soon, Second Aunt will worry herself sick.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Wei immediately stood up, picked up his little niece, grabbed his nephew\u2019s hand, and said to Serenity, \u201cSister-in-law, please call my brother. I\u2019m taking the kids out to play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He had no intention of sitting around and listening to his sister-in-law nag him about marriage.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serenity laughed. \u201cYou and Miss Lan have been competing for years?\u201d \u201cEver since I joined Yangtai, I\u2019ve been gradually going [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17905","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17905"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17905\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17905"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17905"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
