“I do have more money than him, but so what? I can’t just flaunt it in front of him. That would be too lowly.”

“That’s not what I mean,” Zhou Xinyu replied.

“In today’s society, money is the foundation. The fact that we have more than him speaks volumes.”

“So, what do you want me to do?”

Although Chen Teng was someone who paid attention to all the social cues, he was only better than Zhou Xinyu when it came to navigating interpersonal relationships.

When it came to showing off and flaunting, Zhou Xinyu was definitely better than him.

“When it comes to spending, as long as we appear more generous than him, that should be enough,” Zhou Xinyu suggested.

“Use money to overpower him!”

Chen Teng’s eyes lit up. “That seems like a good idea. I’ll give it a try.”

Soon, the group left the hospital, and Yan Ci went to the pharmacy at the entrance to buy some medication for Tang Li. With the medical check-up done, everything was finally settled.

“Auntie, since we’re done here, let me take you around a bit.”

“No need for that. You’ve all been with me the whole day; let’s just go home and rest.”

“We are okay, but you need to rest more. Let’s head back first.”

Yan Ci didn’t say much more on the matter and decided to take her aunt home. There was no need for Lin Yi’s help in the afternoon, so he could take care of his own business without wasting time here.

“Yes, let’s all go home and rest. You’ve been following me around all day and must be exhausted.”

Yan Ci nodded. “Alright, let’s go back. For dinner, I’ll find a place to treat everyone.”

“Yanyan, there’s no need to go out to eat. I’m not an outsider; we can just eat at home.”

“The thing is, I usually don’t cook at home, so there’s nothing in the kitchen to make a meal with.”

“Didn’t you say yesterday that Brother-in-law lives alone? Why don’t we go to his place?” Zhou Xinyu suggested.

“Go to Brother-in-law’s place?”

Yan Ci didn’t expect Zhou Xinyu to make such a suggestion.

“Why would we go to his house?” Tang Li interjected. “We’ve already troubled him enough today.”

“Brother-in-law lives alone, so his place is probably a mess. There’s no need to embarrass him by visiting.”

Yan Ci felt a bit annoyed, sensing that Zhou Xinyu was overstepping her bounds.

It was one thing to visit her own home, but suggesting they go to Lin Yi’s place was crossing the line.

What was she thinking?!

“Didn’t you say that rother-in-law lives alone and knows how to cook? I thought it would be nice to see for ourselves,” Zhou Xinyu said.

“Besides, when we were on our way here, my aunt mentioned that we should check out Brother-in-law, so why not take this opportunity?”

Yan Ci frowned slightly, feeling even more resentful towards Zhou Xinyu.

How could she make such an unreasonable request?

Seeing Yan Ci’s expression, Zhou Xinyu smirked, feeling that her plan was halfway successful.

“Xinyu, what are you talking about? We’re not that close to him. Why would we go to his place?”

“Teng, you don’t get it,” Zhou Xinyu whispered.

“Didn’t you notice my cousin hesitating?”

“So what if she hesitates?”

“It means she’s unsure!” Zhou Xinyu said.

“If their living conditions were good, she would be eager to show off. But now, she’s hesitating, which means their situation isn’t great, and she doesn’t want us to see it. When you compare your standing with his, the difference will be obvious.”

Chen Teng understood her point and thought it was a good plan.

“Cousin, if you think your brother-in-law’s place isn’t up to par and don’t want us to visit, just say so. It’s no big deal.”

“Let’s go then.”

Lin Yi said before Yan Ci could respond.

Yan Ci looked at Lin Yi with gratitude, her emotions mixed.

If it were just Zhou Xinyu, Yan Ci would definitely refuse.

But with her aunt present, it was hard to say no.

“Alright, let’s go. I’d love to taste my brother-in-law’s cooking,” Zhou Xinyu said with a sly smile.

“Since my brother-in-law is cooking today, I’ll take care of the grocery shopping,” Chen Teng offered.

“I know a good organic grocery store nearby that sells high-quality imported goods. Shall we go?”

“Let’s head there then. By the time we’re done shopping, it’ll be just about time to start cooking.”

“Let’s go. I’ve recently learned a few new dishes, so I’ll show off my skills later,” Lin Yi said, wrapping his arm around Yan Ci’s waist.

“Mm-hmm.”

Yan Ci replied, full of joy. Lin Yi had given her enough face.

With their next steps decided, everyone got into their cars and drove to the grocery store.

“Thank you,” Yan Ci said gratefully. “You’ve wasted so much time because of me, and now you even have to cook for them.”

“It’s just a meal; it’s no big deal,” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“Think of it as me cooking for you.”

“But with your status, they don’t even deserve to eat your cooking.”

“Alright, be generous. Let’s do it for your aunt. She was good to you when you were little, and now it’s time to repay her.”

“But she’s my aunt, so I should be the one to repay her, not you.”

“As you said, we’ve shared everything, so I’m responsible for you. So there’s no need to differentiate between us.”

Yan Ci gave Lin Yi a flirtatious look.

“Hmph, you always know what to say.”

Soon, with Chen Teng leading the way, the group arrived at an upscale organic grocery store with a stylish and modern entrance.

Lin Yi was familiar with the place since Ji Qingyan used to shop there occasionally.

Lin Yi didn’t have much of an impression of the store, other than that the prices were quite high.

Once inside, Zhou Xinyu and Chen Teng took the lead, pushing the shopping cart and selecting items with flair.

And they were very generous when choosing, as almost all of the ingredients were expensive.

It was far beyond what an ordinary person would buy.

After about an hour of shopping, the group headed to the checkout with their purchases.

“Just this little bit of stuff cost over 2,000 yuan!”

Tang Li was astonished when she saw the receipt, her mouth agape.

She was a regular grocery shopper, and in her view, the items in the cart should only cost about 200 yuan.

She never imagined they would total over 2,000!

“Mom, we’re at an organic grocery store. Everything here is imported, including the meat, which is not only hygienic but also delicious. Of course, the prices are higher.”

“Imported or not, charging this much is practically robbery.”

“It’s fine. This small amount of money is nothing to your future son-in-law. It’s just a drop in the bucket,” Zhou Xinyu boasted.
