Chapter 14: What a Figure, Truly Magnificent
Just like that, with the help of Ms. Qin Hao, Shen Mo and Liu Yue began their life of marriage before romance.
With the goal of a happy and blissful life ahead, Shen Mo began to devote himself madly.
Cooking together with Ms. Wenya and Grandma.
Serving as a sparring partner for his mother-in-law, Ms. Qin Hao.
Mountain-hunting together with Grandpa.
After more than a month of getting along, Shen Mo successfully won over Grandma, Grandpa, and his mothers-in-law through his own incompetence.
That's right, through sheer incompetence.
When Grandma, Grandpa, Ms. Qin Hao, and Ms. Wenya learned that Shen Mo was an ordinary vocational college graduate who knew nothing except a decent skill at grilling and stir-frying, they were absolutely thrilled.
In their words, the Qin Family just loves a son-in-law like this.
Then everyone asked Shen Mo about his dreams.
Shen Mo simply described his dream of eating more and working less, not starting a business, holding shares and collecting dividends, gnawing on bank interest, and honestly lying flat at home.
This made Grandma, Grandpa, Ms. Qin Hao, and Ms. Wenya even happier. In their excitement, Grandma couldn't help but ask Shen Mo whether he would be dazzled by wild flowers outside.
Shen Mo's response was to pull Liu Yue into his arms, point at his two mothers-in-law, and declare loudly: "My wife is this beautiful, and she'll most likely stay beautiful for the next thirty years—how could I possibly be dazzled by wild flowers out there?"
"Besides, would women outside spend money on me the way my wife does?"
"No, they wouldn't. They'd only spend my money."
"So I won't be dazzled by wild flowers out there, because I love money—money lets me live a stable life."
Shen Mo spoke very frankly, which pleased Grandma, Grandpa, Ms. Qin Hao, and Ms. Wenya greatly.
However, they still had one concern: whether Shen Mo's self-esteem could take it.
To this, Shen Mo gave a wild, arrogant grin: "Believe it or not, if I just post my daily life online, not only will no one look down on me, but a whole bunch of people will envy me. So my self-esteem won't just avoid being hurt—it'll be fully satisfied."
Ms. Qin Hao and the others expressed disbelief.
How could the world look up to a pretty boy living off a woman? Had the world gone mad?
Although they liked Shen Mo's unambitious look—because only this way would Shen Mo stay by Liu Yue's side forever for the sake of a beautiful life—
They still couldn't just claim the world would look up to a pretty boy.
Liu Yue, however, said with a grin, they could run an experiment.
At worst, they'd open a video account and film Shen Mo being a pretty boy—ahem, his daily life with her, Liu Yue.
Wenya said no problem, let's try it then. It just so happened she had a media company under her name and could arrange staff to film right away. If this track did well, she could even give the media company to Liu Yue directly.
Yes, give it to Liu Yue, not Shen Mo.
When Wenya said this, Shen Mo was overjoyed. He hugged Liu Yue and gave her a hard kiss. "Wife, you're really my lucky star. Hanging onto your thigh means I'll never worry about food and drink in the future."
Liu Yue felt both happy and sad about Shen Mo's excitement.
Happy that someone she liked liked her back; sad that the person who liked her started from money.
However, Liu Yue quickly adjusted her mindset.
The copy for the first video was written by Liu Yue herself.
………
Tyrannosaurus Rex was a top streamer under Hao Ya Media, whose daily livestream content was playing Fight the Landlord.
That day, before going live, Tyrannosaurus Rex received a message from above asking her to find time to browse a video—it would be recommended on the same-city feed to draw traffic.
For a request that barely counted as a request, Tyrannosaurus Rex agreed without hesitation: no problem.
At night, inside the livestream room, over ten thousand viewers watched online simultaneously as Tyrannosaurus Rex played Fight the Landlord. Looking at the cards in her hand—double kings, four twos, four aces, one airplane plus two singles—she grinned smugly, instantly straightened her back, the Pikachu on her chest bouncing sharply, fiercely drawing the audience's gaze, and laughed wildly: "With these cards, I could still lose?"
"How could I possibly lose?"
"Family, no more words—pop the champagne early, super double up."
Bullet comments: "666, what a Heavenly Winning start, Tyrannosaurus Rex is so happy she's giving out benefits."
"Haha, I just want to know how Tyrannosaurus Rex will work herself to death and lose."
"She could still lose this?"
"Bro upstairs is new here, right? You don't know Tyrannosaurus Rex's wild streak."
Watching the bullet comments, Tyrannosaurus Rex grinned smugly: "Just impossible to lose."
The landlord played, tossing out a ten-card straight, playing half her hand.
Tyrannosaurus Rex's previous player passed.
Under the gaze of ten thousand viewers, Tyrannosaurus Rex chose to pass and smugly shook her Pikachu, laughing loudly: "Family, we have to be kind, give the landlord a little fun playing the ga—"
Before she could finish the word "fun," the landlord played an airplane with two pairs, and flowers symbolizing spring floated across the screen.
Tyrannosaurus Rex stared at her instantly zeroed-out beans, went completely berserk, and roared frantically: "How is it possible? How is it possible?"
Bullet comments: "Dying laughing, a Heavenly Winning start, a hand that absolutely couldn't lose—she somehow found a way to lose it."
"Really, you give them a gaming experience, and they give you a spring."
"666, eye-opener, haven't seen a streamer this sexy and funny in ages, follow follow follow."
"Really dying of laughter." After her breakdown, Tyrannosaurus Rex dialed her dad's number and said sweetly: "Daddy, can you lend me your Fight the Landlord account?"
Bullet comments: "Daily routine of calling dad for help."
"Everyone else asks dad for money, but she asks dad to lend an account—and can't even borrow one."
Tyrannosaurus Rex's dad: "……I watched your livestream. You're so bad."
The call was hung up. Tyrannosaurus Rex sat there stiff all over, muttering: "I'm done, embarrassed all the way home."
She patted her cheeks, looked at her streaming duration, and Big Mama Dragon sighed, saying helplessly: "Since it's come to this, let's browse some beautiful lady videos to rest our eyes."
Bullet comments: "Haha, Tyrannosaurus Rex's daily routine of scrolling handsome guys to pad stream time."
"But why doesn't she, a woman, watch handsome guys?"
"Because she's female, and she likes females."
"6."
"..........."
Following the leader's instructions, Bawanglong tapped into the local channel and, looking at the handsome guy and beautiful girl combo in the first video, grinned as she clicked it open: "Since the bullet comments want me to swipe handsome guys, I absolutely have to swipe a few."
"But I want to swipe handsome guys and beautiful girls together even more."
Bullet comments: "Tsk tsk, you really do specialize in being obedient."
"But the handsome guy and beautiful girl in this video's promo image really are quite a feast for the eyes."
"Speaking of which, that beautiful girl, I seem to have seen her somewhere before."
Bawanglong: "Watch the video, watch the video."
【Narration: "My name is Shen Mo, a kid from a small county town. From a young age, I understood one truth—to succeed, rely on your wife."
"So, I embarked on a road of no return. I, became a live-in son-in-law, married a rich woman."
(Under the sunset, Shen Mo carries a bag as he walks out of the county town, stepping into the hall of matrimony.
In the hall, Liu Yue, dressed in a pure white wedding gown, extends her hand toward Shen Mo.)】
In front of the screen, Bawanglong covers her mouth in surprise and says: "Handsome guy, I want to be a live-in son-in-law to such a beautiful rich woman too."
The gleam in Bawanglong's eyes convinced the viewers she wasn't lying.
But the viewers in front of the screen also want to be live-in sons-in-law. Liu Yue is too beautiful—having a curvy figure is one thing, but she also has an angelic face, and especially those smiling eyes, which are truly captivating.
The most crucial thing is, this Liu Yue is also a rich woman; we just don't know how rich yet.
【Narration: "Before becoming a live-in son-in-law, I read dozens of live-in son-in-law novels and prepared myself for showing off and slapping faces, but..."
(In the background, Qin Hao waves a big hand, having Wen Ya give Shen Mo a ten-million-dollar romance fund.) "Mother-in-law is too good to me."】
Bawanglong screams: "Ahhhhhh, ten million! I want that too."
Bullet comments: "Holy crap, is this the joy of being a live-in son-in-law?"
"Marry a beauty, get ten million, this life is just too good."
"So jealous, so jealous, can you let me go up and act for one episode?"
"Don't know if it's real or fake. If it's fake, I want to say let me act. If it's real, please, rich lady, you must look at me. I can be the third, I only need five million."
"Buddy upstairs, don't crash the market value."
【Narration: "Because of mother-in-law's ten million, I was honestly trembling with fear. So, I decided to win over this family."
"Today is the first day, so I..."
"In the morning, I helped Auntie Wen Ya and Grandma cook together."
(By the morning stove, Shen Mo and Wen Ya prepare breakfast together.) "In the morning, I accompanied Grandpa to see a thousand free-range pigs."
(Standing in front of the fence, Grandpa says, kid, my granddaughter doesn't want to inherit, all of this will be yours to manage in the future.) "At noon, I learned to make Killing Pig Dish with the family."
(In the kitchen, Shen Mo, Grandma, Grandpa, and Liu Yue prepare Killing Pig Dish together.) "In the afternoon, I accompanied Ms. Wen Ya and my wife to go shopping, acting as the bag-carrying lackey."
(In the mall, Shen Mo follows behind Liu Yue laden with bags of all sizes; it's obvious from the shopping bags that some of them contain men's outfits for Shen Mo.) "At night, I have to warm up the bed for my wife."
(On the pink bedsheets is a mischievously grinning Shen Mo.)】
Bawanglong clutches her head and screams: "No way, the looks of his wife's whole family are way too high."
Bullet comments: "High looks aside, haven't you noticed that Auntie Wen Ya is the boss of San Sheng Entertainment?"
"The key is his wife Liu Yue, she's the former beauty president of Liu Group, which means he really did meet a rich woman."
"Damn, damn, damn, I'm dying of jealousy."
【Narration: "Sigh, after a whole day of this, I'm really tired, but luckily I've coaxed my wife happy."
"Now that my wife is asleep, I'm going to work out for a bit, to make sure I maintain my value."
(Liu Yue sleeps soundly on the kang; Shen Mo runs hard in the gym, his eight-pack abs and chiseled physique extremely eye-catching.)】
Bawanglong wipes the drool from the corner of her mouth and screenshots the photo of Shen Mo running on the treadmill.
"Hehe, that physique, truly amazing."
