The second day of the new lunar year is the day daughters return to their parents’ home. Zhang Dong would definitely save some face for Liang Yan in front of others and go back to the Liang family with her. As for bringing gifts for the Liang Family Elders, Zhang Dong never prepared any. It was always Liang Yan’s responsibility. She had complained before, saying how stingy Zhang Dong was and how he never thought of preparing gifts for the Yue family. In response, Zhang Dong directly questioned her about what gifts she had prepared for Granny Zhang. After confronting her twice, Liang Yan stopped bringing it up. "Little Yu, you’re already earning money, yet you didn’t bring any gifts for your grandpa and them," Liang Yan said with dissatisfaction, seeing Zhang Yu with empty hands. "I’m a college student. Since you brought gifts, why should I?" "If you insist I buy gifts, then I’ll just get a gift for 20 yuan." Zhang Yu worried about where to find a 20 yuan gift during the New Year. During the New Year, merchants know everyone wants to save face and show off, so the prepared gift boxes are naturally high-end. yuan? Liang Yan was so angry her head was about to explode, "Zhang Yu, you’re someone who can buy a house in full. How dare you buy such a cheap gift for your grandpa and them." She knew the gift Zhang Yu gave Granny Zhang was a gold bracelet. Why is it that when it’s Granny Zhang, he is so generous, but when it’s the Liang family, Zhang Yu becomes stingy? "My grandma treats me well and gives me lucky money as much as Zhang Hao." Granny didn’t dislike her grandson, but at least on the surface, she acted decently. "If grandpa and them feel I’m not doing well, there’s nothing I can do. After all, they don’t expect me to be filial," Zhang Yu said confidently. Zhang Dong was getting impatient, "Are you done or not? You always want us to bring lavish gifts to your family. Have you ever thought, considering your parents’ behavior, it’s already nice that Little Yu visits them." "Little Yu, just don’t go there. Seriously, the kid is busy all the time, lacking rest." Zhang Dong suggested that Zhang Yu shouldn’t go to the Liang family, which made her happy to get out of the car, "Okay, I won’t go." "Mom and Dad, say Happy New Year to grandpa and them for me." Zhang Yu happily took a cab and left. Liang Yan thought that since Zhang Yu had money and could buy a house in full, what was wrong with getting some stuff for the Liang family? In the end, Zhang Dong and his daughter just didn’t give her face. They simply said they wouldn’t go and didn’t go. "Zhang Dong, what’s wrong with you? Aren’t you making Little Yu dissatisfied with the Liang family?" Liang Yan angrily blamed Zhang Dong. "Is Little Yu’s dissatisfaction with the Liang family my problem?" Zhang Dong frowned, "If you keep grumbling, I’m leaving." Liang Yan was blocked by Zhang Yu’s words and had to shut up. If Zhang Yu didn’t go, it was already a problem, and if Zhang Dong didn’t go either, she would truly become a big joke. Even though now at her parents’ side she was already somewhat of a joke, at least they didn’t dare openly disrespect her. Chen Jiaojiao sat in the back seat, feeling a sense of satisfaction seeing Zhang Dong and his daughter not giving Liang Yan any face. Liang Yan always put on airs in front of her, complaining about her just like an evil mother-in-law. Zhang Yu didn’t give her face, confronting her whenever he wanted and doing whatever he wanted because he was no longer under Liang Yan’s control. Looking at Zhang Hao, who behaved as if he didn’t see their interaction, just playing games, Chen Jiaojiao sighed helplessly. After finishing a game, Zhang Hao put down his phone, "They’re just like that." "Mom knows the Liang family has a mediocre attitude toward her, but she still thinks of them." "She, well, she’s just a Voldemort." Zhang Hao sneered, "Whether it’s my uncle or my aunt, they’ve benefited." "My mom thinks that her being able to go to college is something she should thank the Liang family for." "But she doesn’t consider if my uncle or aunt were college material?" "She didn’t have to pay for college and even received living subsidies, yet she saved money for the family." "All her earnings after starting work went to her parents; even after getting married, she continuously supported them." Zhang Hao had strong opinions about Liang Yan too. If it weren’t for her constant support of her family, how would their father have any issues with her? Financial matters would be separated; overall, everything was her fault. Chen Jiaojiao couldn’t believe Liang Yan was such a person, supporting her family so excessively, "That’s really outrageous." Chen Jiaojiao thought in her heart that if Liang Yan pointed fingers at her again, she would use this to retaliate. Zhang Hao picked up his phone, ready for the next round of the game, "Don’t think of using my mom’s support for her family to provoke her." "Haven’t you seen that Zhang Yu doesn’t bring it up either? In her heart, the Liang family is her mother’s family, her support." "It’s enough for you to know. If you insist on causing trouble and get bullied by my mom, don’t expect me to help you." "My mom can go crazy, and no one knows what she’ll do." Zhang Hao knew that if he didn’t scare Chen Jiaojiao, who knew what kind of trouble she’d stir up. Ah, Chen Jiaojiao stared at Zhang Hao. The latter said lightly, "If you don’t believe me, you can try." "But be prepared to take responsibility. Don’t expect to come looking for me." Zhang Hao had an idea: if she really bothered Liang Yan, would it stir up big trouble? If the child in her belly were gone, wouldn’t that be great, Zhang Hao started to anticipate. During the New Year’s Eve dinner, the series of questions from Zhang Yu truly frightened Zhang Hao, even though he said that children could grow up even if raised casually and didn’t need to be overly pampered. In truth, he didn’t want his child to grow up in a sloppy manner. Even though he was frugal and wouldn’t spend much on the child, he couldn’t deny that the birth of a child would inevitably consume a lot of money. Zhang Hao wished he could strangle the dad version of himself when he first heard the news and return home to discuss it thoroughly instead of rashly deciding to keep the child. If the issue could be resolved back then, his life now would probably be all kinds of pleasant denial, and Zhang Dong wouldn’t be so disappointed in him. Chen Jiaojiao noticed Zhang Hao looking at her belly with such a gloomy expression, making her uneasy. She tried hard to suck in her stomach, not wanting to provoke him. But no matter how much she sucked in, she couldn’t make her belly smaller. Zhang Hao saw her action and couldn’t help but chuckle, "You actually don’t want to have the baby." "Why wouldn’t I want to have the baby? This is my only chance." "Let me tell you, Zhang Hao, this is my only hope. If anything happens to the child, you can just try it." "You’ve heard of a mother gaining strength, right?" Chen Jiaojiao didn’t dare bet on Zhang Hao’s humanity. "You know my family’s situation. If I go back, there’s no good outcome." "If something happens this time, and I can’t have the baby, my life is basically ruined." Zhang Hao looked at her expression, knowing that if something really happened to her, he would absolutely face consequences. "I know, I know." Zhang Hao repeatedly promised that he would never do anything to harm Chen Jiaojiao’s health.
