Qin Zhiwei never saw it coming. He slept off the booze, woke up, and suddenly Shen Xinyi's parents were a lot nicer to him.

It was Xiao Qin this and Xiao Qin that, until he was almost embarrassed.

He got through dinner at their place in a daze, and afterward Shen Xinyi saw him off to a hotel nearby.

The whole way there he kept pestering her about what exactly he'd said after he got drunk at lunch, and she just wouldn't tell him. It was driving him crazy.

Still, judging by how things turned out, the visit had been a success.

The next day the whole Shen family drove him out to the Humble Administrator's Garden. Qin Zhiwei could tell right away that his future little brother-in-law couldn't care less about the scenery.

Just as Xu Ye had predicted, a hundred and sixty-eight yuan was all it took for Qin Zhiwei to buy off his future brother-in-law, who was still in middle school.

Shen Wenxuan came out of the restroom in a much better mood. He'd been to the garden plenty of times and knew it inside out, and to keep his skin-buying brother-in-law happy he appointed himself tour guide, explaining everything they passed. He also said "brother-in-law" every other sentence, until Shen Xinyi had goosebumps.

Shen Liang and Tao Wanrong just stared. When had Qin Zhiwei bought…
