“Mom, I’m not wrong. Chu Qiao really does work at a dance hall, I saw her there last night. She was drinking with those men, she’s working as a hostess.” 

Xu Bilian insisted defiantly. 

She was determined to expose Chu Qiao’s true colors and let Gu Ye know that this woman was nothing but a fraud. 

The Gu family would never tolerate a daughter-in-law who worked as a hostess.

If she couldn’t become the Gu family’s daughter-in-law, then neither would Chu Qiao.

Hearing her daughter speak with such conviction, He Jihong’s heart began to stir. 

She asked Chu Qiao with a gentle expression, “Qiaoqiao, is what your older sister Bilian said true? Do you really work at a dance hall?”

“Impossible. Qiao Qiao works at a clothing factory.” 

Chu Yuanzhi retorted angrily, his refined face hardening as he directed his displeasure at He Jihong.

A place like a dance hall is nothing but a modern-day brothel, how could his daughter possibly work there? Absolutely impossible.

While everyone was arguing heatedly, Chu Peng quietly picked up a spoon and scooped up a flower-shaped decoration from the top of the cake. 

Just as he was about to put it in his mouth, he noticed four shiny eyes staring intently at him, which were Dabao and Xiaobao, looking like little puppies, swallowing their saliva repeatedly.

Chu Peng didn’t want to pay attention to the children and was about to eat the cream anyway. 

The aroma was driving him crazy, but those four eyes were like searchlights, making it impossible for him to take a bite. 

Annoyed, he put down the spoon. 

What frustrated him was himself. Lately, his heart had been growing softer, and he was drifting further and further from becoming a shrewd businessman. This was not a good sign. 

He scooped out two more cream flowers and placed them into Dabao and Xiaobao’s bowls. 

The little ones grinned so widely their eyes turned into slits, whispering, “Thank you, Uncle!”

Chu Peng curled his lips slightly, not particularly eager to hear words of gratitude. 

After all, who would thank a shrewd businessman? More likely, he’d be met with curses.

While the adults were busy arguing fiercely, Chu Peng, Dabao, and Xiaobao happily enjoyed the cream.  

Chu Qiao had originally made eight cream flowers, eight for prosperity, an auspicious number.

But now, only two remain. The other six had been shared and devoured by Chu Peng, Dabao, and Xiaobao. 

The last two stood lonely around the nearly burnt-out candle, looking rather pitiful.

“Uncle, let’s finish them all!” 

Dabao whispered, offering his suggestion.  

He didn’t think leaving two flowers behind was a good idea, it’d be better to just eat them all.  

Chu Peng’s eyes lit up, and he looked at Dabao with approval. 

This kid had the potential to be a shrewd businessman, he thought exactly the same way.  

And so, the two remaining flowers were scooped away. 

Chu Peng gave one to Dabao and Xiaobao to share and kept the other for himself, justifying it with a simple reason: “My mouth is bigger.”  

Dabao and Xiaobao pouted in disappointment. 

They were just little children, shouldn’t their uncle know to care for the young and respect elderly? 

Chu Peng contentedly finished his cream flower, glanced at the now-bare cake, and gave a mischievous smirk. 

His sinful spoon struck again, scooping up all the fruit toppings as well. 

If the flowers were gone, what was the point of leaving the fruit behind?

After sharing the fruit with Dabao and Xiaobao, only the candle remained stubbornly burning on the cake. From start to finish, no one had noticed the trio’s little scheme.

Chu Qiao stopped the furious Chu Yuanzhi and said gently, 

“Blow out the candle first. We can talk about this matter later.”

“That’s right, blow out the candle first!”

Chu Yuanzhi nodded repeatedly. 

If he didn’t blow it out soon, the candle would burn out on its own, and that would be unlucky. 

He took a deep breath, drawing energy from his core, and blew with all his might. 

The candle went out, and Chu Yuanzhi smiled contentedly. The wish he had made would surely come true.

Chu Qiao went to turn on the light, and the room brightened instantly. 

Chu Yuanzhi picked up a fruit knife to cut the cake but suddenly noticed something was off. 

He blinked several times in a row and even rubbed his eyes vigorously. 

He distinctly remembered there being several cream flowers and plenty of fruit on the cake’s surface, so where had they all gone?

Has his memory failed him?  

Or was he hallucinating?
