Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 4415


 
Married at First Sight Chapter 4415 
After getting in the car, Zhan Yiyang asked her, “What kind of movies do you like to watch?” 
Du Yumeng replied, “I like all kinds of movies—except romance dramas. I even enjoy martial arts and horror films.” 
Zhan Yiyang laughed. “Don’t most girls like romance dramas? Do you have a favorite celebrity?” 
“No, I don’t admire celebrities. The people I respect are those who’ve made significant contributions to the country and society.” 
For people of their status, chasing celebrities was easy. They could sign them to their own entertainment company within minutes and turn them into a source of income. 
 “I understand,” Zhan Yiyang said. 
No wonder she wore a disguise and roamed the world. Maybe she had seen too many martial arts dramas and dreamed of becoming a heroine. 
But Zhan Yiyang was mistaken. Du Yumeng liked to disguise herself for other reasons. First, she didn’t want others to know she was the second daughter of the Du family, fearing it would damage their reputation. 
Being from a wealthy family came with restrictions. She had to consider her family in everything she did. 
Second, she had trained under a master from a young age and met many older fellow students. While she was still learning, they were already out in the world earning a living. Hearing their stories inspired her to do the same once her studies were complete. 
Du Yumeng smiled. “What do you mean, ‘you understand’?” 
“I… was just saying the night view of Haicheng is beautiful.” 
Du Yumeng considered explaining herself but hesitated. If she did, it would be like admitting she was a fox—though Zhan Yiyang already knew that. And that she was a cute baby fox, at that. 
“It really is beautiful,” she said. 
“I want to go to the beach and relax this weekend. Are you free? Let’s go together. I have a yacht—we could take it out on the sea.” 

The invitation came suddenly. Du Yumeng had just asked Zhan Yiyang to join her at the beach this weekend. 
“I work every day—endless documents, countless meetings, nonstop business, and frequent travel. It’s exhausting. I can hardly get any true rest, even on weekends.” 
Du Yumeng looked out at the night view and said softly, “But that’s our responsibility. When we were young, our elders worked hard to give us a good life, so we could grow up without worries.” 
Du Yumeng gazed out at the night view through the car window and said, “But that’s our responsibility. When we were young, it was our elders who worked hard to give us a comfortable life and let us grow up free of worries.” 
“Now that they’re aging, it’s our turn to take over, to work hard and give them a better retirement.” 
Isn’t that always how it goes between parents and children? You raise me when I’m young, and I support you when you’re old. 
Zhan Yiyang turned his head slightly to glance at her, then refocused on the road and replied, “There’s a reason my grandma likes you.” 
His grandmother had always valued a person’s character above all else. 
In her words, even if someone’s background didn’t match the Zhan family’s, as long as their family history was clean and their character upright, she wouldn’t care—she would still accept them as a granddaughter-in-law. 
The Zhan family was already enormously wealthy; marrying someone from an ordinary background wouldn’t affect their fortune. 
A virtuous woman brings prosperity to three generations. 
That’s why his grandmother placed such importance on character. 
To keep the Zhan family stable, even with some inevitable losses, the overall position of the Zhan Group remained strong. That was already an achievement. A capable leader at the front and a virtuous woman behind him were essential. 
Many families who rose alongside the Zhans had long faded from view. The wealth built by their ancestors was squandered by descendants. Only the Zhan family grew stronger with each generation. 
Du Yumeng smiled softly. “The person I admire most is still your grandmother. Zhan Yiyang, when I liked you in the past, what I really liked more was the big family behind you.” 

“As long as it’s a man from the Zhan family, no matter his rank, if he entered my world, I would like him.” 
Zhan Yiyang: “……” 
He suddenly felt like a failure. 
His personal charm was no match for the appeal of his family.
