Tycoon: I Have an Unlimited Modifier novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174: Chapter 117: A Contest Between Father-in-law and Son-in-law

"I’m not sure what to do about your situation either. I guess you’ll just have to try your best."

Han Yueying sighed, but she wasn’t as worried anymore.

After all, his Vitality was just low. It wasn’t like he had none at all.

Besides, as long as the two of them were happy, they could still be perfectly happy even without children.

While the mother and daughter were having a private chat...

...Qi Sheng and Tan Yuheng had taken a few bites of food before downing their glasses.

When Tan Yuheng saw that Qi Sheng’s complexion hadn’t changed in the slightest, his heart sank.

’Don’t tell me this kid can hold his liquor better than I can?’

But he had already talked a big game. He’d just have to risk it all to drink with his future son-in-law.

Several rounds of drinks and courses later...

...Qi Sheng’s expression remained unchanged, still perfectly calm and composed.

His future father-in-law, Tan Yuheng, was already flushed red, his arm slung around Qi Sheng’s shoulders.

He was a mess of laughter and tears as he recounted how hard it was to raise a daughter.

Every father is the same, terrified his daughter will marry poorly.

"Ah Sheng, don’t you worry. I might not be a man of great means, but I’ll give Huahua everything I possibly can. I won’t hold back a single thing."

"She’s my only daughter. When she gets married, I have two properties in Chengdu."

"Whether you sell them or rent them out, they’re yours to manage."

"As for the bride price, you just give what you see fit. Even if it’s 66,000, I won’t think it’s too little."

Tan Yuheng genuinely meant it, and his tone was exceptionally sincere.

"There’s no rush for that. Huahua and I are still young, and we want to focus on our careers a little more."

"But I promise you, as soon as we have a child, we’ll hold the wedding banquet right away."

Qi Sheng planned to start thinking about having kids when he turned thirty.

By that count, he still had seven years to sow his wild oats.

’Once I become a father...’

’...I can’t just keep living a carefree and hedonistic life, can I?’

"Good! I believe you!"

Having finally heard the answer he most wanted to hear, Tan Yuheng promptly passed out, his head hitting the table.

"Honestly, your father... He can’t hold his liquor at all, yet he insisted on drinking with Ah Sheng. He really overestimates himself."

Han Yueying complained, but she couldn’t help but feel a pang of pity as she helped her husband up.

"I’m not drunk..."

Tan Yuheng mumbled drunkenly as he was helped to his feet.

"I’m sorry, Auntie, let me help Uncle."

Qi Sheng took over supporting Tan Yuheng, handling the man’s weight much more easily than Han Yueying could.

"It’s all right. He drinks too much pretty often, so I’m used to it. I’m just sorry you had to see this."

"Our future son-in-law’s first time visiting, and her father gets this drunk."

"Just wait until he sobers up tomorrow. See if I don’t give him a piece of my mind."

Han Yueying looked at her hopelessly drunk husband and gave his side a few helpless pinches.

’He’s so drunk, he’ll have blacked out by morning anyway.’

’He might even think he did it to himself.’

"It’s okay. We’re going to be family, so there’s no need to be so formal."

Qi Sheng genuinely meant it; otherwise, he wouldn’t have made that promise at the dinner table.

"That’s good."

Han Yueying, for her part, was incredibly pleased with Qi Sheng.

Aside from that one tiny, insignificant physical quirk, everything was perfect. That was no big deal.

If their family let a top-tier catch like him slip away, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

...

「Jiangbei, Vanke Yulan Road.」

This was a large, single-story apartment that Tan Yuheng had acquired just last year.

It wasn’t exactly a luxury mansion, but it was certainly an upgrade.

Three bedrooms, two living areas, two bathrooms, and 160 square meters in size.

Their family of three, plus Grandma Tan, lived there very comfortably.

The home was kept immaculately clean.

As a full-time homemaker, Han Yueying had an excellent relationship with her husband.

Tan Yuheng was also very understanding and never complained about her being a stay-at-home wife.

As a result, Tan Hua had grown up in an exceptionally happy and harmonious family.

One couldn’t say she was raised in the lap of luxury...

...but Tan Yuheng and Han Yueying had done everything in their power to provide Tan Hua with the very best.

"Huahua, you sleep with me tonight. Let Ah Sheng stay in your room."

Han Yueying considered that Qi Sheng and Tan Hua weren’t married yet, and if they slept together so openly...

...she was afraid Tan Yuheng would see it in the morning and his blood pressure would skyrocket.

"Huh?"

Tan Hua nodded shyly. "Okay, I understand."

"When you two are out on your own, we can’t control what you do. But in our house, it’s better to be mindful."

Han Yueying knew she was being a little cruel.

’But in some places,’ she thought, ’a son-in-law can’t even sleep at his wife’s family home after they’re married. Now *that’s* going too far.’

"Mom, you go ahead and sleep. I’m just going to talk with him for a little while."

Tan Hua felt a little resentful. ’Qi Sheng did so well tonight,’ she thought.

’It would be wrong not to give him some kind of reward.’

"Sigh... All right, do as you please."

Feeling weary, Han Yueying went straight to the master bedroom.
