Chapter 185 Conflict between Husband and Wife (13)

10, February.

Less than a month after Su Mingzhe and Zou Yu's wedding, Zou Donghai suddenly fainted at work. After being sent to the hospital, he was suddenly diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.

Zou Donghai's condition was discovered too late. After consulting with various famous doctors and experts, it was found that surgery was not possible and only conservative treatment was possible.

Half a year later, Zou Donghai passed away.

As the eldest daughter, Zou Yu took over the law firm.

In fact, Su Mingzhe did not want Zou Yu to accept the job at the law firm.

Zou Yu himself doesn't have much ambition for career.

If nothing had happened to Zou Donghai, Zou Yu would have been pregnant this year or next year.

Accidents always catch people off guard.

From the time Zou Donghai discovered his illness to his death, time passed so quickly that sisters Zou Yu and Zou Yue were caught off guard.

Zou Donghai is a man with a strong sense of responsibility. Even when he was sick and hospitalized, he always asked his daughter to help him run the law firm.

As a result, Zou Yu really learned to shoulder responsibilities. After Zou Donghai passed away, he chose to inherit the law firm and continue moving forward with Zou Donghai's sense of responsibility.

Su Mingzhe hated this sense of responsibility of "the son inherits the father's business" to the core.

Zou Yu has been working day and night since his father passed away. It seems that he would be letting his father's spirit down if he doesn't make the law firm flourish.

Su Mingzhe tried to persuade him several times, but it was of no use.

After a long time, Su Mingzhe stopped persuading her.

In a flash, more than two years have passed.

After the Spring Festival in 13.

It has been twenty-seven months since Zou Donghai passed away.

According to custom, after the third anniversary memorial service, Zou Yu and Zou Yue’s mourning period was over.

After the Chinese New Year, Zou Yue was supposed to look for an internship in a company, but ended up going to the Jinlong Group and became a foodie live broadcast host.

Relying on the fact that her brother-in-law is the boss and the platform's recommendation for traffic, Zou Yue, who is also good-looking, has gradually accumulated millions of fans. Her monthly income is about one million, which is much better than her sister Zou Yu's law firm.

On this day, Su Mingzhe had just finished half a day's work when he was called back home by his sister-in-law to be her personal chef.

According to the agreement between the two, Su Mingzhe, as a special guest chef, will wear a half-face mask when broadcasting live with Zou Yue.

It’s not that Su Mingzhe is afraid of meeting people, but he wears a mask during live broadcasts to maintain his mystery.

During the live broadcast, the two called each other "brother-in-law" and "sister-in-law". People who are familiar with them can identify their identities by their voices.

When Su Mingzhe returned home, Zou Yue and her team had already prepared all the ingredients.

Zou Yue’s team consists of four people, all of whom were roommates in college.

When the four of them were in school, they made money by doing live broadcasts online through Su Mingzhe's connections.

However, before, the four of them still wanted to become big stars and only did sporadic live broadcasts occasionally.

After three and a half years of college experience, these four people, including Zou Yue, realized that they were not cut out to be stars, so they just laid down.

After all, you can easily make money with your own resources, so why go to the entertainment industry to suffer and be tortured when you have to do thankless work?

Facts also prove that life of lying down is really good.

You can easily earn a million a month just by eating, drinking and shopping on weekdays. Isn’t this better than being in the entertainment industry?
"Brother-in-law is back."

Seeing four pretty girls calling him brother-in-law together, Su Mingzhe felt his legs and feet go weak.

Girls who can perform in Shanghai Operas are naturally good-looking, and each of them has a hot body.

In order to attract the audience, the four girls wore relatively cool clothes, with long legs, and either white or black stockings.

Su Mingzhe usually didn't dare to look at her for too long, for fear that Zou Yue would make a fuss.

Su Mingzhe entered the room and took a quick look inside before saying, "Everyone is here. What do you want to eat today?"

"Brother-in-law, today everyone wants to ask how to make this homely pickled fish."

As the host, Zou Yue is responsible for appearing on camera and partnering with Su Mingzhe. The other three girls are responsible for general affairs, filming, etc.

Su Mingzhe put on the chef's costume, put on the mask, and walked in front of the camera.

There are actually many ways to cook pickled fish.

Su Mingzhe can only choose one, but he can talk more about some techniques.

For example, how to remove fish bones.

How to remove fishy smell.

How to control the heat when boiling soup.

How can a kitchen novice avoid making mistakes? After hearing the instructions for the first time, he can make pickled fish almost accurately.

Su Mingzhe explained it to everyone bit by bit in front of the camera.

The girl Zou Yue stood nearby, singing along and playing the role of supporting actor.

An hour later, a delicious sauerkraut fish is ready.

A group of people started tasting.

After eating the pickled fish, everyone picked out two more dishes according to the request of the top brother on the list.

Before I knew it, more than two hours had passed.

This account live-streamed for two hours and received nearly 100,000 yuan in gifts.

It has to be said that delicious food and beautiful women combined together is a killer combination.

"Oh, it's finally finished."

In order to show that the food was delicious, Zou Yue ate so much that she filled her stomach in one breath.

Fortunately, Zou Yue is the kind of girl who can never gain weight no matter how much she eats.

Zou Yue patted her belly without any ladylike manner and complained to Su Mingzhe:

"Brother-in-law, next time you cook, please hold back a little. You got me pregnant, you have to take responsibility." "Don't talk nonsense."

Su Mingzhe reached out and flicked his sister-in-law's head. This girl spoke without any manners and dared to talk nonsense in front of outsiders.

"Xiaoyue, we're leaving first."

The other three girls packed up their things and did not dare to stay for long. They were also afraid that Zou Yue and Su Mingzhe really had some unspeakable secret and would kill the three of them to silence them.

When there were only two people left at home, Su Mingzhe no longer cared about his image. He took off his mask, took off his clothes, and went back to the bedroom to take a shower.

Zou Yue changed his clothes, put on a pair of frog-eye glasses, and went home directly without staying overnight.

When Zou Yu is not at home, it is really inconvenient for a man and a woman to stay in the same room.

Zou Yue was not afraid that Su Mingzhe had any bad intentions, but she was afraid that she would do something to let her sister down.

After spending the past few years together, especially after Zou Donghai passed away, Su Mingzhe took great care of the sisters Zou Yu and Zou Yue.

Needless to say, Zou Yu has deep feelings for Su Mingzhe, and they have long been like one husband and wife, with a deep love for each other.

Zou Yue also gradually developed inappropriate feelings for her brother-in-law.

It's just that Zou Yue is usually cheerful and a little neurotic. He also studies drama and is good at disguising himself, so it's not easily discovered by outsiders.

Su Mingzhe was taking a shower when he heard the bedroom door open. He subconsciously called out, "Wife?"

"Well, husband, Xiaoyue is gone?"

"Well, he should be gone. I wasn't paying attention."

Su Mingzhe wiped his body casually and walked out wrapped in a bath towel. He saw Zou Yu lying on the bed looking tired. He couldn't help but walk over and hugged her with heartache.

"Xiaoyu, if you are tired, just take a rest. There is no need to make yourself so tired."

"I'm fine, just take a rest."

Zou Yu was held in the man's arms, and he temporarily cleared his mind. He stayed for a moment and was about to stand up.

"Honey, I haven't eaten yet, is there any food at home?"

"I'm saving it for you."

Since Su Mingzhe is a chef for his sister-in-law, he naturally would not forget to save food for his wife.

After they finished their meal, Zou Yu wanted to take a shower, but Su Mingzhe insisted on following her in and rubbing her back.

"There's no mud on me, so why do I need to have my back scrubbed?"

Zou Yu was not happy with the man following her in, but Su Mingzhe insisted on going in.

There was no choice, Zou Yu took out an umbrella from the drawer and handed it to the man.

You can rub your back, but you must take precautions.

Su Mingzhe immediately became angry.

This clearly shows that you don't trust yourself.

The couple have been living together for more than three years, but there is no trust between them at all.

Zou Yu’s eyes were determined.

It was obvious that she was very skeptical about her man's character.

This is sometimes how rifts between couples arise.

Zou Yu knew that her thoughts were a little too arbitrary and she didn't consider her man's situation at all.

After comforting the man, Zou Yu said with guilt:
"I'm sorry, Mingzhe. The firm can't do without me right now. Let's wait two years before having a baby."

If it were before, Su Mingzhe would definitely express generously that he would definitely support Zou Yu.

However, today Su Mingzhe was not happy to say this.

Holding Zou Yu tightly in his arms, Su Mingzhe sighed and said, "What if there is still no change in the firm's affairs after another two years? Don't forget, you said at the beginning that I should wait for three years. Now three years have passed, and you want me to wait for another three years."

"Three years and three years. I'm a man and I can afford to wait, but you're a woman. In a few years, after you're over 30, you'll be an elderly mother."

"..."

Zou Yu didn't say anything else, but just like the man, she hugged the man's neck tightly with her hands and buried herself in the man's arms.

For a normal couple, having children is an overwhelming task.

Because Zou Yu inherited the law firm, he insisted on taking responsibility.

Su Mingzhe helped several times to ease Zou Yu's burden.

But Zou Yu likes to add burdens to himself.

The two got married at the end of 09, and it is now the summer of 13, so they have been married for more than three years.

Although, Su Mingzhe told relatives and friends that they just wanted to live in their own world and had no plans to have children for the time being.

But the actual situation was that Zou Yu was unwilling to give up the law firm and was afraid that having children would interfere with his work, so he repeatedly postponed his birth plan.

In order to prevent others from discussing Zou Yu, Su Mingzhe made an excuse.

There were still many voices in the family, secretly discussing who had health problems between Su Mingzhe and Zou Yu.

In fact, such doubts and suspicions are not unique to the Su family.

Among the hundreds of clans in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, there are many people who are gossipy and like to eat melons.

There were even many people who asked the elders of the Su family whether Su Mingzhe and Zou Yu had ever had a physical examination and who was sick.

Young people should not be afraid to see a doctor.

If you are sick, you should seek treatment early.

These people never thought that the fundamental reason why the couple did not have children was that Zou Yu wanted to continue working.

The reason why Zou Yu works so hard is not because she is ambitious, but because she cannot let go of the responsibility that her father gave her before his death.

After Su Mingzhe tried to persuade him again and again but failed, he gradually lost his patience.
