Chapter 116 Disagree
"what?"
"I disagree!"
Two voices rang out simultaneously, the louder one coming from Zhu Tingyue.
Zhu Mingchuan turned to look at her, completely bewildered: "What do you disagree with? I'm asking Shen Yanqiu!"
Without a second thought, Zhu Tingyue replied, "That's my body, I have the right to refuse!"
Shen Yanqiu echoed her words: "Yes, I disagree too!"
Well, most of the day's work was for nothing!
Zhu Mingchuan stared at the two of them for a long time, then spread his hands, full of helplessness: "He earns so little, what's wrong with being a star? Stars make so much money these days! They don't have to do anything! I'll just talk to your Uncle Chen, and he can debut right away!"
Zhu Tingyue doesn't care about debuting or not; she just doesn't want to.
"You want your daughter to cater to other people's tastes and become a puppet? Just to make money?"
Zhu Tingyue's angry words rang in Zhu Mingchuan's ears, and he weakly defended himself: "He is Zhu Tingyue now! What's wrong with letting him earn some money? How can he support his family and raise his children if he doesn't earn money?"
"Besides, I'll talk to your Uncle Chen and make sure she doesn't do too much or too tiring work. Just a simple variety show recording or a casual acting role will do!"
"No, I don't agree. Go yourself! If you want to make money, go to the company and work overtime now!"
Zhu Tingyue's words were cold and ruthless. She thought about how adorable and sensible her daughter used to be! Now, for the sake of a man, she dared to talk back to her in front of outsiders? She was so pitiful!
Zhu Mingchuan felt wronged and sought his wife's understanding and support. He thought it best to scold Zhu Tingyue to see if she had anyone else on her mind besides Shen Yanqiu!
If Mom just rolls her eyes at him instead of giving her an answer, she'll know he doesn't mean any good!
Do you think you can just walk into the entertainment industry like that? Let alone Shen Yanqiu now having Yueyue's face, even if it were just him, Zhu's mother wouldn't agree!
I don't know what's wrong with Zhu Mingchuan these past few days? Is his brain not working properly?
It's possible that yesterday's events had too much of an impact on him, and he couldn't accept it right away, which is why he acted this way.
His resilience needs improvement!
Zhu Mingchuan was still heartbroken, looking as if his daughter had broken his heart. He clutched his chest, mimicking Xi Shi's gesture of holding her heart, and turned shakily towards his mother.
This sight disgusted Zhu's mother and Zhu Tingyue.
Zhu Tingyue turned her head away, not wanting to look at him anymore.
May Mom close her eyes and walk away from him.
But Zhu Mingchuan, seemingly unwilling to give up, called out to her, "Wife, look at your daughter!"
If that voice were thirty years younger, Mother Zhu would be overjoyed to hear it. But now, she just wanted to be deaf to avoid having her ears offended by that affected voice.
"Shut up! Say another word and I'll go into the entertainment industry and make money myself!"
There was nothing else they could do but hope that his mother could temporarily subdue him.
Even after his mother said that, he still lowered his head and pursed his lips into a tight line.
Although he didn't utter a single complaint, his resentful and stubborn expression revealed his dissatisfaction.
"Fine, I won't say anything more! Wife, you're not allowed to go! Let him go if he wants to!" Zhu Mingchuan pointed at Shen Yanqiu and said to his mother.
It’s simply unreasonable!
I wish my mother could get really impatient with him. I don't know what kind of life I've been living for the past thirty years. Why is it getting harder and harder to bear now?
"I'm not going, and he can't go either! Just listen to Yueyue. If you don't have anything else to do, go to the company and work overtime!"
"Wife!" Zhu Mingchuan suddenly raised his voice, "I'm not going! You want to kick me out? I'm not leaving! My wife is here, I'm not going anywhere! If we're going to leave, we'll leave together!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Zhu's mother grabbed a cushion and threw it at him, yelling, "If you don't leave, I will!"
Zhu Mingchuan hurried to catch up, afraid that if he fell behind even a step, he would never see his wife again.
Zhu Tingyue sighed helplessly, "Dad is getting more and more childish as he gets older!"
She gently stroked Shen Yanqiu's hand, her eyes filled with guilt: "Don't mind him, he's just not very bright!"
Shen Yanqiu's expression, which had been unreadable, broke into a smile upon hearing this: "How can you say that? Dad is a good person; he's only saying that because he cares about me!"
Zhu Tingyue scoffed, "Cough, how has he ever been good to you? Don't listen to his nonsense!"
"How can you say this isn't for my own good? I can't work now, and after the baby is born, am I supposed to rely on you to support me and the baby?"
"Why not?" Zhu Tingyue said matter-of-factly. "You give birth to the child, and I'll support the family! Isn't that reasonable? Or do you think I'm incapable of supporting you?"
"No, I never thought that way!"
"Never? Think again! When we switched identities, who was it that wouldn't let me go to the company? Were you afraid I'd ruin your company?"
When Zhu Tingyue brought up old grievances, Shen Yanqiu had nothing to say, because that was really what he had thought back then.
He didn't want to admit it, but it was true; Zhu Tingyue was still staring intently at him.
He had a sudden inspiration, turned his head, planted a kiss on Zhu Tingyue's cheek, and smiled ingratiatingly at her.
Zhu Tingyue was quite pleased and pointed to the other side, gesturing to him with her eyes.
Shen Yanqiu, observing the situation, quickly printed a mark on the other side before stopping.
One morning, wherever Shen Yanqiu went, Zhu Tingyue followed closely behind, which puzzled Shen Yanqiu.
Why are you always following me?
Zhu Tingyue put her hands in her pockets and looked up at the sky: "No, I was just taking a walk."
"The Zhu family's house is so big, you can just wander around, why did you have to take the same route as me?"
It's fate!
Shen Yanqiu: "..."
"Alright, you're right!" Shen Yanqiu didn't ask any more questions.
After lunch, Zhu Tingyue continued to follow him.
Are you afraid I'll leave alone?
"Huh?" Zhu Tingyue felt a momentary pang of guilt, but then she tried her best to appear nonchalant. "How could that be?"
Shen Yanqiu's eyes crinkled with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't leave! Besides, I'm pregnant! Where could I possibly go?"
"Really?"
And you still say you're not afraid? Nobody believes that!
"Really! Absolutely! I will never leave!" Shen Yanqiu assured him.
"Yes, that's right! You stay at home and I'll work hard outside. I'll give all the money I earn to you. You take good care of the children and raise them to be successful. We'll make our family prosperous!" Zhu Tingyue began to envision the future.
Something sounded off to Shen Yanqiu: "You're saying I won't go back to work after giving birth?"
"Why are you still going to work? I'll earn money for you to spend! What will happen to our children if you go to work?"
Shen Yanqiu finally realized something was wrong: "Zhu Tingyue, what you're saying sounds exactly like a scumbag!"
