It's said that mothers-in-law like their sons-in-law more and more the more they look at them. Although Liu Chang'an and An Nuan haven't reached that point yet, many mothers, after accepting their daughters' relationships, often show some affection or give some instructions to their daughters' boyfriends. This usually means they hope that the boy can take care of their daughters and not bully them.

This Liu Yuewang is quite unusual. She doesn't reason with An Nuan or talk about her mother's experience. She just stirs up trouble on her own, as if breaking them up is always the right thing to do.

What kind of thinking is this? Liu Chang'an found it a bit hard to understand, but thinking that trying to understand a woman he didn't know was difficult, he gave up.

"Why is your mom always targeting your boyfriend? Based on what you've said, he's talented, gentle, considerate, and mature for his age. Why is your mom making such a fuss?"

"You're talking about my mom! And so fiercely! I'm not talking to you anymore!"

This is a woman who can't stand even the slightest unpleasant tone from others. She probably hears it in daily life and can remain calm, but she definitely keeps a grudge in her heart.

"It's just a sheep's head. If your boyfriend knew it was your mother, he would definitely give it to her. I bet your mother would just pretend to be polite, and then turn around and come to you to stir up trouble. So don't just listen to your mother's side of the story."

"My mom isn't like that at all! She's not the type to gossip or spread rumors. She's gentle and virtuous, without any of the flaws of a common woman. She's well-educated, reasonable, and tolerant."

"Okay, okay, it's all someone else's fault. Your mom is the best. She's the most beautiful, gentlest, and most perfect person in the whole world."

That's more like it.

"Uh-huh."

"I'm a little angry today, I'm going dancing now, bye-bye."

Liu Chang'an smiled, turned his head, and noticed that Qin Yanan kept glancing at him. Only after he put away his phone did she hand him the bag in her hand.

"I bet you're the kind of guy who, when shopping with a girl, just wants to sit down and not move as soon as you enter the mall," Qin Yanan said in a low voice. "If a man doesn't help carry things when he's at the market with a woman, she loses face, you know?"

"Is that so?" Liu Chang'an had never heard of it before.

Qin Yanan nodded.

Okay, whatever you say. Liu Chang'an, carrying the sheep's head and a bag, didn't have time to play on his phone. He followed Qin Yanan to pick out some vegetables. After buying the vegetables, he put them on the back seat, and Qin Yanan gave him a wet wipe to clean his hands.

"How are things going with that girl An Nuan?" Qin Yanan asked as she drove away.

"Wine for flowers, ten years lingered for whom?"

Qin Yanan laughed, "That's inappropriate of you. Qin Guan's poem was dedicated to a courtesan. If the young girl knew you were using such a metaphor, she would definitely break up with you."

"Just quote the meaning; it's not like reading comprehension where you need to know the background and author's details." Liu Chang'an reclined, lounging lazily. "Anyway, we're doing quite well now, and it's only natural that things continue like this. I've put in far more effort than Qin Guan. Qin Guan only had ten years, while I'll dedicate my entire life to Liu Chang'an... Well, you can't say that. Ten years is precious for an ordinary person, but as for the words of literary figures, just listen to them and let them go."

"Tch, even if it's just for one lifetime, others will say it's for eternity." Qin Yanan said dismissively, her tone tinged with sourness. Single women hate it when men say sweet nothings to other women in front of them.

Liu Chang'an smiled; arguing with a woman was pointless.

Qin Yanan didn't like this "I can't be bothered with you" attitude, so she picked up "The Love's Offering" and played it on repeat.

The sound system in her car is top-of-the-line, costing more than most home theaters, and the sound quality is excellent, but the music...

"I will dedicate my entire life to supporting you..."

"I will dedicate my entire life to supporting you..."

When this line came on, Qin Yanan sang along, glancing at Liu Chang'an and making a "sour" expression.

Liu Chang'an went along with her; women ultimately like to do some pointless things, and women are prone to acting crazy.

On the way back, the car drove slowly. There were many tourists on the road, and the car was parked right in the courtyard. Some people were even peering over the fence. Qin Yanan was actually starting to regret staying there. She had originally thought that the mountaintop would be quiet and secluded, but she hadn't expected that tourists and children would climb over the fence to play, press elevator buttons randomly, and even ask to go to the rooftop observation deck to take pictures when they saw Qin Yanan. Qin Yanan had encountered this many times. At first, she was willing to agree, but now it happened all day long, and she was extremely annoyed. She could only have the hotel install signs saying "No Visitors Allowed" to help.

"Why did you take so long?" Zhu Juntang complained as she came down from the third floor, but then quickly added smugly, "I was on the rooftop, and the tourists below who saw me all felt their trip was worthwhile."

"Okay, I'll write a sign that says it's a national 6A-level scenic spot and hang it around your neck later," Qin Yanan said with agreement.

"Grade A?" Zhu Juntang looked at Qin Yanan with some suspicion. "Are you mocking me again?"

"I don't have that kind of time. Our country's tourist attractions are rated 3A, 4A, 5A, etc., it has nothing to do with your bra size." Qin Yanan gave a slightly teasing smile, calm and confident. "Why be so sensitive? You're more than an A cup."

"You filthy, big-breasted woman," Zhu Juntang cursed.

"You..." Qin Yanan was about to retort when she glanced back and saw that Liu Chang'an had gone to the kitchen. She was too lazy to pay attention to Zhu Juntang anymore and followed him into the kitchen.

Zhu Juntang also came to take a look.

Eating is a big deal, and cooking is of course a big deal too. The preparation work before cooking is also very important. Liu Chang'an naturally had no interest in paying attention to the girls' daily bickering. He was seriously dealing with that sheep-headed girl.

"This is a castrated white goat, so the mutton smell isn't as strong. Let it soak for a while first." Liu Chang'an took a large, deep soup pot, put the goat's head in, and poured in cold water to soak it. Qin Yanan is a good cook, and people like that usually enjoy collecting and buying kitchen utensils. They have all kinds of knives and cooking utensils, which is very convenient. It's easy for someone skilled in cooking to feel like they want to show off their skills, just like a hidden master in the martial arts world who can't help but want to return to the martial arts world when they see a divine weapon appear.

"Do you want me to help?" Qin Yanan also wanted to try Liu Chang'an's cooking and see just how skilled this person, who could eat so much and give so much advice on cooking, really was.

"No need, you can just wait and eat."

"I never cook. It'll hurt my skin. What if I cut my hand with a knife and it gets wet, leaving a scar?" Zhu Juntang looked at her delicate, flawless hands, imagining the terrible scene of scars on them, and said with lingering fear, "Then I won't be perfect."

"Then please don't block the way at the kitchen door." Liu Chang'an came out of the kitchen. "Let's play a game of cards first. Do you know how to Pao Hu Zi?"

"All you know is playing cards?"

Qin Yanan and Zhu Juntang said this together. This person spends all day playing cards and mahjong with a group of old men and women in the neighborhood. I don't know what fun he finds in it.

"Playing cards is allowed, but cheating is not permitted. There are surveillance cameras in the room." Zhu Juntang remembered that Liu Chang'an had superpowers, and in those "God of Gamblers" movies, superpowered people would use their superpowers to cheat.

"You installed surveillance cameras in your own room?" Liu Chang'an asked curiously, looking up but not finding any cameras at first glance. He didn't know if there were any in the bedroom, and it wasn't convenient for him to check the girl's bedroom.

"They're installed everywhere, even in the bedroom," Zhu Juntang said regretfully. "I just discovered it myself. It's a pity the computer was formatted, otherwise I should have been able to see what happened last night."

"What's so interesting? Do you really want to prove I'm possessed by my great-grandmother? You're crazy," Qin Yanan said irritably. "I had this computer assembled at the computer mall. With so many spying and leak scandals these days, I was worried it might have some backdoor software installed, so I reinstalled the system myself. How was I supposed to know what happened last night? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

That makes sense, a natural and straightforward explanation. Liu Chang'an nodded and continued to invite everyone to play cards.
