At night, Mother Guan and Guan Juer were lying on the bed, having a mother-daughter late-night chat.

They said a lot and talked for a long time.

Mostly it was Mother Guan speaking, and Guan Juer listened very attentively.

The next day, Chen Cheng and Guan Juer took Father Guan and Mother Guan out to play in the Magic City for most of the day.

The clothes bought yesterday were delivered by the store.

Today, Guan Juer was dressed exceptionally fashionably.

Wearing a white textured dress and a pair of nude flat shoes, she had also taken off her glasses and put on contact lenses.

She wore subtle makeup on her face, applied lipstick, eyeshadow, and mascara.

She looked ethereal, sweet, and elegant.

When Chen Cheng saw her, his eyes lit up. The naive little ugly duckling was starting to turn into a white swan.

At four in the afternoon, the two of them dropped Father Guan and Mother Guan off at the train station.

Chen Cheng had originally suggested letting Eleven drive the couple back to Xicheng directly.

Mother Guan was unwilling, saying, 'It's not as fast as the high-speed train, and it's inconvenient.'

Chen Cheng did not insist.

'Remember what I told you,' Mother Guan hugged her daughter and whispered in her ear.

Guan Juer recalled what her mother had said last night, glanced at Chen Cheng, who was exchanging pleasantries with Father Guan, and nodded quickly.

'Uncle, even when you're busy with work, you need to take care of your health. Health is the capital of revolution.'

Father Guan laughed: 'Good!'

'Come home with Guan Guan during the holidays.'

'Alright, I'll definitely go!' Chen Cheng replied.

Chen Cheng took the gift box that Eleven was holding behind him and handed it to Father Guan, 'Guan Guan said you love tea, so I had someone buy some for you to take home.'

'It's just everyday tea. If you like it, I'll bring you more next time I go back.'

Father Guan looked at the gift box, his brows slightly knitted. Mother Guan, standing to the side, saw this and rolled her eyes at him.

She reached out and took the other gift box from Eleven's hand.

'It's a gift from our own family, what are you afraid of?'

Father Guan glanced at Mother Guan and reluctantly accepted the gift box.

It's no wonder he was cautious; with Chen Cheng's net worth, who knows how expensive this 'everyday tea' actually is.

Chen Cheng nodded, a smile always on his face, 'The Shaoxing yellow wine is for Auntie. Guan Guan said you like it.'

After speaking, he gave Guan Juer an affectionate look.

Mother Guan's eyes crinkled with amusement, and she shot a playful glare at Guan Juer.

Guan Juer knew she was teasing her and smiled.

Mother Guan's eyes swept between the two of them, 'Alright, we're going in, you two should go back too.'

After saying this, Mother Guan turned around stylishly and walked towards the station entrance.

'Remember what your mother told you.'

Father Guan gave Guan Juer a reminder, nodded to Chen Cheng, and turned to follow her.

'Goodbye, Dad.'

'Goodbye, Auntie.'

Chen Cheng and Guan Juer waved at the couple's retreating figures.

Seeing the couple walk inside, Chen Cheng's lips curled up, 'Guan Guan, what did Auntie tell you?'

Guan Juer blushed, raised her eyebrows, and said coquettishly, 'I'm not telling you.'

'You're really not telling?' As he spoke, Scum Cheng's mischievous hand reached for Guan Juer's waist.

'Ah... Brother Cheng, you're tickling me.'

As she said this, Guan Juer's hand also reached for Chen Cheng's waist and tickled him.

Seeing that Chen Cheng had no reaction, the smile on Guan Juer's face froze, 'Brother Cheng, you're not ticklish?'

'I've trained for it,' Chen Cheng said with a smug look.

Guan Juer didn't believe it and tickled him again, carefully observing Chen Cheng's reaction. As a result, the guy didn't move an inch, and his expression didn't change at all.

Suddenly, Guan Juer felt a bit defeated and huffed.

The two of them playfully got into the pullman by the side of the road.

'Brother Cheng, where are we going?' Sitting in the car, Guan Juer asked Eleven, who was driving.

Chen Cheng looked at her lingering excitement, thought for a moment, and said, 'Let's go shopping?'

They had spent the whole weekend with Father Guan and Mother Guan, so they hadn't had much time alone.

It just so happened that Chen Cheng also wanted to give Guan Juer a makeover.

Mother Guan had even given him a head start by making Guan Juer accept the fact that he would pay for things.

He had to strike while the iron was hot and help Guan Juer improve her personal image.

'Shopping?' Guan Juer frowned. She had already spent a lot of Chen Cheng's money over the past two days, and she was a bit hesitant.

Chen Cheng continued to encourage her, 'Let's go.'

Guan Juer nodded, 'Alright then.'

Chen Cheng's lips curled slightly, and he signaled Eleven.

Father Guan and Mother Guan went through security and entered the VIP waiting room; Chen Cheng had bought business-class seats for them.

The couple found a seat, and Mother Guan looked at the pensive Father Guan and said:

'You, just let it go. This trip was originally for Guan Guan's matchmaking anyway.'

'Isn't it better that she found someone she likes herself?'

'You've seen Chen Cheng's conditions in every aspect. Among the younger generation, even nationwide, he's impeccable.'

Father Guan frowned tightly and waved his hand, 'I don't think Chen Cheng is bad; it's just that he's too good.'

Mother Guan smiled, 'I've thought about the issue you mentioned.'

'So what? The two of them are already together now. What? Are you going to break them up?'

Father Guan's mouth twisted, 'That's not it. It's just that with Chen Cheng's net worth, plus that look of his that attracts romantic trouble, I'm afraid the temptations around him are more numerous than the water in the Huangpu River.'

'I'm worried about my daughter getting hurt.'

Mother Guan waved her hand, 'Alright, stop worrying needlessly.'

'I already told her what she needed to know last night.'

'Guan Guan is our daughter; she's not worse than anyone else, and she should learn quickly.'

Father Guan smacked his lips and didn't speak.

Mother Guan looked at the gift box on the floor, her eyes darting, and said, 'Take the tea back and have someone estimate the price. If the price is too high, we need to report it to the Discipline Inspection Commission.'

Father Guan waved his hand, 'No need, it's premium pre-Qingming tea. 250g shouldn't be more than three thousand yuan; it counts as a normal interpersonal gift.'

Mother Guan curled her lips and sneered, 'This kid is really shrewd.'

'These two bottles of wine are about the same.'

Father Guan chuckled, 'Otherwise, how could he have achieved this much at such a young age?'

Chen Cheng didn't do anything shady; what was written on the packaging was exactly what it was.

Mother Guan thought about it and took out her phone to see how much savings they had at home.

She entered her daughter's bank card number and transferred 500,000 to her.

When the high-speed train started.

Chen Cheng and Guan Juer had already arrived at a high-end shopping plaza.

They picked a store at random and walked in.

Showing his black card, the beautiful store manager led the two into the VIP room.

The store manager knelt halfway in front of them, pouring tea while asking about their needs.

'Mr. Chen, do we have any specific needs today?'

Chen Cheng leaned back on the sofa and nodded slightly, 'Match a few more commuting outfits for my girlfriend.'

The store manager's eyes lit up. Female consumption is generally much higher than male consumption. It seems like a profitable day.

The store manager smiled and nodded.

'Ah... we just got some new arrivals in the store.'

The store manager sized up Guan Juer, 'Should I find a few models to help you try them on?'

'Hmm, go ahead. Match ten or eight sets. Don't be limited to your store; the ones next door...'

'Ah, don't worry, I'll make Miss Guan satisfied.'

'You two drink some tea first, I'll go arrange it.'

The store manager called out and got up to arrange it.

There was still a beautiful saleswoman in the VIP room standing by to accompany them.
