"You have a point." Zac nodded slightly. Now his little fool was busy preparing for the family dinner of
the Spring Festival and had no time to take care of the child. It was good for him to stay at the parents
in law' home. They would think about it after they finished their work these days.
"People die for money and birds die for food. That is right. Human's ambition and greed are almost
endless. As long as there are some interests, there will be fights. " Essie sighed.
"Some people just overestimate themselves. They won't shed tears until they see the coffin." Zac
snorted with contempt in his eyes. If Laura dared to stir up trouble in the family, he would make her
never step into the Rong Mansion again. Even if she was Walt's wife, his sister-in-law, he would not be
merciful.
"I thought my brother's little sun was kind, lively and lovely, full of positive energy. I didn't expect that..."
Essie stopped and sighed.
"Love makes people blind, just like seeing the mirages in the desert. It is extremely beautiful. You want
to chase and possess. Once you see the true face of each other, you will find the foolishness at that
time. Maybe brother has begun to regret now," Zac said slowly.
"Sounds reasonable." The corners of Essie's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a hint of cunning. "Are we
the mirages to each other?"
"It's been four years, if I still can't see the real face of the mirages, it is likely that I am either a stupid
guy or a fool." Zac rubbed her confused head.
Essie wrinkled her nose mischievously and said, "Four years is not that long. It's said that there is a
seven-year-itch in marriage. It means that it won't be able to see each other clearly until the seventh
year, right?"
"Is that the way you deduce the seven-year-itch?" Zac was in a slight sweat. She was really good at
thinking 'outside the box', and she was really thinking different from ordinary people.
"Anyway, seven years is a hurdle in the marriage. Do you think we can get through it?" There was a bit
of uncertainty on Essie's face.
Zac frowned and was a little unhappy. How dare this muddled-headed fool question their marriage? It
was so hateful.
"Do you know what 'worrying about nothing' is?" he asked.
"I just said it casually. Nothing is absolute in the world." Lowering her head, Essie mumbled in a very
low voice, "Maybe one day your hidden disease will recover and you want to go out and have a try?"
"My little fool, what else can you do except thinking nonsense?" Zac sighed. Even if he had no hidden
disease, he would only love her. She was the only one in his life.
"Women's youth is limited. Look at those men outside. Each of them has a few figures in savings, and
they begin to dislike their wife and go out to look for other women." Essie pouted.
"Don't mix me with the creatures on the lower food chain." Zac stretched out his strong arm and flicked
her forehead discontentedly. In his eyes, those were low-level creatures and he disdained them.
Feeling wronged, Essie covered her forehead with her hand and said, "Well, I'm wrong. You are a rare
species that is even higher than the creatures at the top of the food chain. You can't see it from the
perspective of mortals."
"That's good." Zac showed a condescending and contemptuous attitude.
With her arms crossed over her chest, a hint of cunning flashed through Essie's eyes. "As the leader of
the divine race, how could you choose an ordinary and confused human like me?"
"Sometimes my brain is out of function and my vision is out of function." Zac shook his head and
sighed.
"Humph!" "You are over narcissistic," said Essie, waving her hand.
"You are over self-abased." Zac fought back playfully.
With a coquettish smile, Essie squinted at him and said, "You mean I'm not bad, right?"
"Can ordinary people attract the attention of me?" Zac gently rubbed her nose. It sounded like he was
exaggerating, but in fact, it was more like praising himself. It was true that the sacred race that stood
high in the sky were all arrogant and narcissistic.
Hearing that, Essie stopped talking and closed their eyes, pretending to be asleep. Ordinary people
couldn't fight against demons, so they had to have a clear estimation of themselves. The best way was
to pretend to be dead.
At this time, on the other side of Dragon City, Eva was having dinner with Elizabeth. She didn't know if
Elizabeth was out of her mind and came to have dinner with her today. She really wanted to refuse, but
thinking that she would be her mother-in-law in the future, she resisted and reluctantly agreed.
"I heard that Essie asked you to go to the private resort for weekend again?" Elizabeth asked casually.
Eva nodded.
"As I expected, she wanted Holy to pretend to make up with Vinton to paralyze his fighting spirit."
Elizabeth snorted.
"You think too much. Vinton and Holy are brothers. They should get along well with each other," Eva
said.
"You are too naive. In a rich family, brotherhood is never comparable to family property and interests."
Elizabeth sneered. She knew that it was impossible to change Eva's mind in a short time, so she had to
use the way of coaxing and brainwashing to make her completely change so
that she would stand on her side, and be used by her.
"Even if Holy takes the position as a leader in the future, Vinton is also the second largest shareholder.
He won't lose too much," Eva said in a soothing tone.
"Have you ever seen that the emperor in ancient times left the prince by his side and placed him in an
important position after he ascended the throne? They are trying their best to suppress them and guard
against them, fearing that they have the strength to rebel," Elizabeth said word by word clearly and
forcefully. After a pause, she took a sip of red wine and continued, "Don't believe what others say. You
are so simple. How can you be a capable assistant of Vinton? Don't be used by Essie and Holy and
hurt Vinton instead."
"Essie is my best friend. I trust her. She will only be good to Vinton and me. She won't hurt us," Eva
said firmly.
"In Essie's mind, Holy is much more important than you and Vinton. There can only be one person in
charge of the Xu family. If she chooses, it will only be Holy, not Vinton," Elizabeth said seriously.
Eva fell silent. She couldn't find a reason to refute her. In Essie's heart, Holy should be more important
than Vinton. He was still young and needed her protection and care, so she would certainly put more
attention on him in love. Vinton's mother was Elizabeth, which was more or less an obstacle between
them.
"What do you want me to do?" she asked in a low voice.
"I don't expect you to help Vinton too much. All you need to do is not to hold him back. You must pay
more attention to Essie. You can't trust her too much," Elizabeth said. Her tone was quite sincere, as if
she was worried about her son. She was smart enough not to ask too much from Eva to arouse her
suspicion and disgust. She would slowly devour her and let her off guard.
"I will be careful." Eva nodded.
"That's good." Elizabeth smiled, "The new year is coming soon. Come to the Xu family's manor if you
have time. I'll teach you how to prepare the new year's dinner. From now on, you'll be in charge of this
family."
"Okay." Eva also smiled at her, looking a little more obedient. It seemed that she also wanted to
reconcile with her mother-in-law and get along well with her in the future.
Elizabeth was satisfied with her reaction. She was changing according to her plan step by step.
As soon as they came out of the restaurant, Eva received a call from Jim. He would have a round the
world tour in two days. His first station was Dragon City and he asked her to come to rehearse.
When she arrived at the Dragon City gym, Eva pouted at him and said, "Haven't you never rehearsed
when you perform?"
"I don't need to rehearse. It doesn't mean that you don't need it." Jim gave her a mocking look.
"I have a song to sing in pair with you. If you don't take part in the rehearsal, how can I sing it alone?"
Eva rolled her eyes at him.
"Practice your own part." There was a trace of impatience in Jim's tone, as if he thought she was
talking too much nonsense.
But Eva didn't care. She always fought back with him.
"Haven't you always been unreasonable? It's not a big deal to rehearse with me this time, is it? "
"Make an exception? For you? " Jim squinted his charming eyes and looked at her from head to toe.
There was undisguised contempt in his eyes. "It's not your fault to dream, but it's time to see a doctor
when you are daydreaming."
"Narcissism is also a kind of disease. You need to take medicine!" said Eva.
"I have the capital to be narcissistic, do you have?" Jim sneered and looked at her chest rudely.
Obviously, he was mocking her for her ordinary figure, ordinary intelligence, ordinary family background
and all kinds of mediocrity.
"I'll make it up through my hard work, okay?" Eva was so angry that she wanted to jump to her feet.
She clenched her fists and wanted to fight. If it weren't for the huge gap in fighting with him, she would
have fought with him every day.
"It's true that a clumsy bird flies first. Sing your 'little bird', sing your thought, and sing your reflection."
An arrogant smile appeared on Jim's face, and a low and deep sneer burst out in his throat.
Eva was exasperated. She silently cursed the eighteen generations of the Jing family in her heart, and
'bless' him that he couldn't make a sound on the day of his concert due to his inflamed throat.
In a fit of pique, she jumped onto the stage, grabbed the microphone, and roared, "I'm a little little bird,
and because I ate too much, I can't fly high..."
Jim sat cross legged on the chair off the stage, as if he was watching a play.
"Heaven pepper, you are talented. You can consider singing as well."
Eva had an impulse to throw the microphone at him, but she held it back and raised her middle finger
at him angrily.
All the assistants and accompaniment were stunned. Sis Eva was challenging Jim in public. She was
getting braver as she was going to marry a rich man and becoming the hostess of the Xu family?
A touch of cruelty flitted across Jim's handsome face.
As soon as Eva returned to the backstage, she was forcefully dragged into the dressing room, with her
back knocking at the wall corner.
"What are you doing?" She shivered slightly.
Jim raised his middle finger and asked, "Is this a hint to me? I can fulfill your wish now!
