When Su Li spoke, he did so with a sense of immense pride. He was proud of his wonderful mother, and he voiced this pride loudly, a hint of boastfulness in his tone. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

However, his words inadvertently slapped Hu Bing in the face. Hu Bing had come with a purpose – to play matchmaker for his cousin. His cousin had no intention of giving up on Su Shen, a good man.

This meant that Hu Bing intended to disrupt the relationship between Su Shen and a woman named Gu Zi. After all, Hu Jie was his cousin, and he naturally sided with her. He didn’t mind disrupting someone else’s marriage for her sake.

Before this visit, Hu Bing knew that Su Shen had been married twice, both times arranged, with no emotional foundation. He assumed that Su Shen’s wives were simple country girls, unfit for the stage, and unworthy of Su Shen. Compared to Hu Jie, a descendant of a soldier, they had no chance of winning. So, he didn’t take them seriously.

However, when he saw Gu Zi, he was genuinely surprised. She was incredibly beautiful, a rare beauty, and she exuded a faint scholarly aura that gave her an air of elegance. Moreover, she was still very young, having just graduated from high school.

In terms of age, appearance, and temperament, she completely outshone Hu Jie.

Furthermore, her composed demeanor during their morning meeting indicated that she was dignified and respectable. Hu Bing thought about it. If Hu Jie had been in the same situation that morning, she might have caused a scene.

Su Shen’s attitude towards her was one of deep respect and protection. In Hu Bing’s impression, Su Shen was not one to use his official power to oppress others, but today, he had shown no consideration for Hu Bing in order to support Gu Zi.

Hu Bing didn’t want to admit that Hu Jie was inferior to Gu Zi, but the reality was right in front of him, forcing him to face the truth. He had no idea how to disrupt their relationship.

Could this woman really educate a child? How was that possible? She had married Su Shen right after graduating from high school. She looked like she was not even twenty, yet she had managed to educate the child so well! He found it hard to believe, but these were the words of the child himself.

Gu Zi didn’t keep him in suspense. She said, “I’m going to make Volcano Ribs. It’s a beautiful and delicious dish, a specialty from Southeast Asia. I promise, Su Li will eat three bowls of rice!”

Su Shen looked at her and nodded indulgently, “Hmm, he loves your cooking the most.” Su Shen wanted to ask how she learned to cook Southeast Asian dishes, but seeing Gu Zi’s serious expression, he reluctantly left.

He sat back down on the sofa and chatted with Hu Bing. Hu Bing didn’t show any emotion on the surface, but he was shocked inside.

Just because he had come and treated Gu Zi poorly, Su Shen had become so nervous that he even wanted to accompany her while cooking. But he was driven out by that woman. In front of this woman, Su Shen’s status was surprisingly low!

Hu Bing remembered that when they were in the army, everyone wanted to match Su Shen with Hu Jie. But Su Shen’s attitude was always cold, making it difficult for people to approach him. Hu Jie was also proud and had her own ideas. She was unwilling to take the initiative to please him, so the two of them didn’t have much real interaction.
