Zachary was silent for a moment before saying, \u201cIn a few years, our Beibei will start school and do really well. Everyone in the Zhan family has a high IQ.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serenity smiled and replied, \u201cBeibei is just over a year old and still can\u2019t speak clearly. It\u2019s too early to say how he\u2019ll do academically. But to me, good grades aren\u2019t the most important thing\u2014I just hope our child grows up healthy and safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even if her children turn out to be average in school and don\u2019t inherit their father\u2019s intelligence, Serenity was perfectly fine with that.<\/p>\n

How many top students have ended up raising children who struggle academically?<\/p>\n

After all, the ancestral grave can\u2019t always be smoking with good fortune.<\/p>\n

\u201cExactly. As long as our child is healthy, safe, and happy, that\u2019s what really matters.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zachary reflected on his large family. He had many brothers, and the younger generation already included eight kids. Three cousins were still unmarried, and once they had children, his son\u2019s generation would have over a dozen cousins.<\/p>\n

Someone would eventually step up to take on the family responsibilities\u2014it didn\u2019t have to be his own children.<\/p>\n

When it came to school, he believed children should learn what they could. And if they couldn\u2019t, then it was enough for them to eat well, sleep soundly, and enjoy life.<\/p>\n

The wealth he and his wife had built would be enough to support their children for generations, even if they never worked a day in their lives.<\/p>\n

As long as they didn\u2019t make reckless investments and kept a low profile, things would be fine.<\/p>\n

The biggest fear among the wealthy is that the next generation will squander everything through careless investments. Most would rather see their children stay idle at home than risk destroying the family fortune.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre you busy, honey? I heard you mention a meeting earlier.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serenity was eager to check on the kids, so she wanted to wrap up the call.<\/p>\n

Zachary began to protest, \u201cWife, are you already tired of talking to me? We\u2019ve barely said anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not busy now. I handed the meeting over to Lao Er and Sunan. I\u2019m in my office, and I\u2019ve got plenty of time to chat with you\u2014even for an hour.\u201d
\n\u201cWife, I miss you so much. I can\u2019t eat or sleep well without you by my side.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serenity laughed. \u201cWe\u2019re already an old married couple.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with that?\u201d Zachary replied. \u201cEven when our hair turns gray, our love can still feel like the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cHaven\u2019t you seen my parents, uncles, and aunts? They\u2019re all grandparents now, and their relationships are still strong. That\u2019s what you call an old married couple. We\u2019re not there yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen autumn comes and the weather cools down, I\u2019ll take a month off to take you on a honeymoon for our eighth anniversary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJust the two of us\u2014no baby this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serenity was speechless for a moment, but said, \u201cWe\u2019ll talk about it in the fall. Who knows if you\u2019ll actually be able to take that much time off? If you can manage ten days or even half a month, that would be great.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t put all the work on Lao Er and Su Nan. They\u2019re planning to have a second child.\u201d<\/p>\n

Su Nan and Shen Xiaojun hadn\u2019t had a second child yet. They were hesitating, afraid the second one might also be a boy.<\/p>\n

Their son is one month older than Zhan Muchen. The boys went to the same kindergarten and now elementary school. Like their parents, they\u2019ve become close friends.<\/p>\n

Zhan Muchen is well-behaved when he\u2019s alone\u2014quiet and never causing trouble.<\/p>\n

But once Shen Xiaojun\u2019s son comes over, the two boys become a whirlwind of chaos. They\u2019ve even climbed onto the roof and pulled off tiles, causing serious damage.<\/p>\n

Shen Xiaojun often complained to Serenity that her son was too mischievous\u2014and sometimes blamed herself, thinking her son had led Zhan Muchen astray.<\/p>\n

In short, boys are harder to manage than girls. They\u2019re simply too mischievous.<\/p>\n

\u201cTheir work and plans for a second child shouldn\u2019t affect anything. Back when we were preparing for a second child, we both kept working too.\u201d<\/p>\n
