Is this man trying to be cute?

But he really is quite adorable.

Especially since it contrasts greatly with his usual image, it’s such a refreshing change!

The little guy listened to Zhao Gushen and didn’t show his face.

Instead, he hid behind Zhao Gushen, stretched out his little hand, and waved to the camera.

Zhao Gushen said, "To protect the child’s privacy, we decided not to show his face. We hope everyone understands."

Zhao Gushen held the little guy’s hand, squeezed it gently, and then let go.

He then held Ye Fei’s hand, smiled at the camera, and said, "I hope Xiao Fei’s fans can rest assured, I will definitely treat her well and not let her suffer any grievances."

"And we won’t be separated again. Previously, because Xiao Fei and I hadn’t reunited and Xiao Mo hadn’t acknowledged me, they were wronged, and Xiao Mo was bullied a lot."

"But from now on, they have me to protect them," Zhao Gushen said. "This time, I’m mainly explaining to Xiao Fei’s fans. Also, I want everyone to know that I’m off the market."

Zhao Gushen said the last four words with extreme pride.

This was something that truly made him exceptionally proud.

It made him prouder than all the good grades and awards he achieved during his student years.

It’s something that made him prouder than the achievements and accomplishments he made after joining Changping.

"I’m married now, and henceforth, I am Ye Fei’s husband," Zhao Gushen said proudly.

Hearing this, Ye Fei suddenly had a thought and followed up with Zhao Gushen’s words, "I’m married now, and henceforth, I am Zhao Gushen’s wife."

The little guy covered his face with both his small hands before showing his head.

His voice sounded muffled, "And there’s me."

Ye Fei and Zhao Gushen were both amused by him.

At this time, Chi Jingsi and Zhao Dinghuan also entered the old residence.

As soon as they entered, they greeted the elders, and Chi Jingsi hurriedly asked, "Dad, Mom, haven’t Xiao Shen and Xiao Fei finished filming the video yet?"

"Probably not, they’re still in the study room and haven’t come out," said the old lady.

Since they were worried about interrupting the video shoot, the elders hadn’t gone to check.

"Oh, just perfect, we can make an appearance too," Chi Jingsi said enthusiastically.

"Hmm?" the old lady hadn’t yet realized.

Chi Jingsi took off her heavy coat, casually threw it over the back of the sofa, and sat down next to the old lady.

"Hmph, don’t think I don’t know what people outside are thinking," Chi Jingsi said.

"Those snobs see Xiao Fei as having an ordinary family background, with no background at all. Amidst the vast crowd, she wouldn’t stand out, so they’ve imagined a 1000-episode soap opera full of endless drama."

"They all think we look down on Xiao Fei, unsure of what method Xiao Shen used or what trick Xiao Fei pulled to make us reluctantly agree to their marriage."

"Even if Xiao Fei is allowed to marry in, they think our family still looks down on her. That’s why the marriage was kept a secret and not announced publicly."

"They’re just waiting for Xiao Fei to cause some trouble so they can watch as our family kicks her out."

"Even at the New Year’s Eve dinner, they thought Xiao Fei caused a scandal, making our family lose face. Even if it doesn’t flare up immediately, they’ll find a chance to drive Xiao Fei away later."

The old lady angrily slapped the armrest of the sofa, "These people have too much free time, constantly imagining our family doing things!"

"They are snobbish and assume we are just as lowbrow?"

The old lady didn’t think Chi Jingsi was exaggerating.

This daughter-in-law, though petty and vengeful, never tells lies.

Nor does she stir up trouble in front of the old lady.

If Chi Jingsi said it, then it indeed must be true.

Chi Jingsi has her pride and would never act like a gossip.

Her pettiness and grudges are mostly harmless squabbles with family, more in the spirit of playfulness.

She’s not someone who’s unable to take a joke.

To be fair, Chi Jingsi is more straightforward.
