Chapter 185: Truly a Good Son-in-law (Part 2)

He had seen the watch before. The last time at Shangri-La, Wang Yang had joked about Li Jianjun, saying he bought this 70,000 yuan Black Water Ghost because of corruption.

Shen Kuo had paid special attention to it at the time, envying it greatly.

He had even thought,

If he could wear a Rolex, he would feel very prestigious!

“This is…”

Holding the watch in his hand, Shen Kuo asked in confusion.

“Uncle Shen.”

Zhao Qingfeng shook his wrist, the silver no-name watch sparkling, as bright as the stars in Shen Lingyao’s eyes, “The watch Li Jianjun gave me is too heavy, and my wrist is thin, not quite fitting. Your wrist is thicker, just right for it. You’re always out on business now, needing some face, so wear it. As for me, I’ll wear the one Yaoyao gave me, it’s light and comfortable, I really like it.”

After he finished,

Shen Lingyao immediately smiled joyfully.

But what does the ‘like’ that he said refer to?

Does he like the watch?

Or does he like her?

(?′?‵?)

Guessed it.

Love me, love my dog.

Yes!

He must like both!

Thinking this, Shen Lingyao grabbed Zhao Qingfeng’s wrist, and with the other hand, pinched his cheek, instructing him like a little wife, “I’ve set the time on the watch for you, it will ring every night at ten, you’re not allowed to sleep late, got it? If you’re good, later you’ll get rewarded with Yaoyao’s special delicious meals!”

After saying this,

She hopped off to greet Qingfeng’s mother who had just entered, and went to the kitchen to learn cooking skills with her.

Shen Kuo was left bewildered, not sure whether to wear it or not.

“Uncle Shen, wear it.”

Zhao Qingfeng poured him a glass of wine.

“But…”

Shen Kuo looked again at Zhao Qingfeng’s wrist, worriedly saying, “I need face, and you need face too. Your position is higher than mine. What if people look down on you at events?”

That was overthinking.

In ordinary people’s eyes, things like watches, cars, and houses indeed could show off one’s status among other ordinary people.

But Zhao Qingfeng didn’t need it.

Because others take pride in wearing expensive watches.

For him,

No matter how expensive a watch is, it can only take pride in being worn by him.

But there was no need to explain all this to his father-in-law.

Zhao Qingfeng just kept persuading, “Uncle Shen, I’ll buy another when I have more money, don’t worry. You’re in a period of business growth, just wear it for now.”

After refusing three times, what more was there to say?

Shen Kuo couldn’t help but feel happy, wearing it on his wrist, looking at it affectionately several times, hiding it under his sleeve, afraid of scratching it.

So heavy, so expensive, so luxurious!

“Rolex…”

He lifted his sleeve again, looking at the black dial, and couldn’t help saying, “They say a good horse needs a good saddle. If I switch my old car for an S600, not to mention the county, even in the provincial city, it would be super prestigious. If the factory manager sees it, he’ll be scared to death!”

“Okay.”

Zhao Qingfeng agreed immediately.

“Ah?”

Shen Kuo was stunned and hurriedly explained, “Little Feng, don’t get me wrong. Uncle isn’t asking you for a car. That thing costs 1.6 million. I’m just happy and talking nonsense!”

Zhao Qingfeng, of course, understood that Old Shen didn’t mean it.

But he didn’t care.

Since his father-in-law wanted it, he would buy it for him.

But not now.

Zhao Qingfeng seriously said, “Uncle Shen, just give me some more time. Once my side fully takes off, I’ll immediately get you an S600. As for your small car, give it to me. It’ll be convenient for going to university later, and it can avoid flaunting wealth, which is really good.”

The matter of buying the car was so easily settled.

Shen Kuo’s heart also settled down a lot.

Good son, good son-in-law!

What good deeds had he done in his past life to end up with such an excellent son-in-law? He was too damn lucky!

While the two were chatting,

Shen Lingyao brought a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes to the table.

Zhao Qingfeng sniffed, “Yaoyao, did you make this?”

Shen Lingyao put her hands on her hips, proudly saying, “Yep, try it and see, my cooking skills have finally improved~!”

It was really not bad.

Zhao Qingfeng took a bite. Although it was too salty, it wasn’t burnt.

Compared to the black pancake last time, the egg was just right in texture, crispy and interesting to chew.

“The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard.”

Zhao Qingfeng stood up and patted Shen Lingyao’s shoulder.

“Next time, it’ll be even better. Just wait, sooner or later, I’ll let you eat a big table of delicious food made by me, so delicious you won’t forget it!”

Shen Lingyao decided to practice her cooking skills more. She couldn’t let brother Qingfeng go hungry after they got married.

The family chatted happily when suddenly someone knocked on the door.

Opening it, they saw Zhang Manman standing there with a big box in her hands.
