The Zhao family, which looked bright and beautiful on the outside, was always accompanied by the sound of quarreling. Perhaps it was because of this that Zhao Yan left home and lived alone outside.

“Mom, Dad, I’m back.” Zhao Manshi pushed open the door and the argument in the house came to an abrupt end.

Tang Chunxiu’s face changed into a smile and she went forward to hold her daughter’s hand. “Manshi, did you meet anyone you like at the Film Festival Dinner tonight? Don’t fall in love with male celebrities in the entertainment industry. They’re all dirty.”

“No, I just went for the hype anyway.” Zhao Manshi rubbed her temples. She had a feeling that her mother had been very concerned about her marriage recently and always wanted to marry her off.

Perhaps she was overthinking things.

“Good child, you’ve worked hard. Go upstairs and rest first. Remember to apply a facial mask before you go to bed.” Tang Chunxiu let the maid bring her daughter upstairs, looking like a loving mother.

Zhao Manshi recalled what Wang Tiancheng had said today and asked curiously, “Mom, I heard from people outside that our family is going bankrupt? Is that true?”

Tang Chunxiu’s eyes twitched.

“Nonsense! With me here, our family will not go bankrupt!” Zhao Jing, who was on the sofa, suddenly said with a serious face, “Who did you hear that from?”

Tang Chunxiu also said, “Manshi, don’t let your imagination run wild. Go upstairs and rest.”

Seeing her parents’ sincere expressions, Zhao Manshi shrugged. What Wang Tiancheng said was indeed a lie.

“Then I’ll go and rest first. Dad, Mom, you guys go to bed early too. Don’t fight anymore.” Zhao Manshi yawned, held the stairs up, and closed the door.

Downstairs in the living room, Tang Chunxiu and Zhao Jing looked at each other.

Zhao Jing pulled out a cigarette impatiently and lit it up. “It’s hard… Business isn’t good this year… If Zhao Yan was still here, I wouldn’t have lost so much.”

“If you hadn’t kept two mistresses outside and used the money to invest in products, would our family still be in this predicament?” Tang Chunxiu looked at her husband with ridicule and disdain.

It was said that women squandered. In the Zhao family, Zhao Jing was the one who squandered the most.

Gold and silver jewelry were given to his mistresses outside all the time.

“That woman of yours is about the same age as your daughter. How disgusting.” Tang Chunxiu sat down and said impatiently, “If the Zhao family goes bankrupt, I will divorce you immediately. Don’t think that I will bear your debt!”

Zhao Jing had a mocking look on his face. “You sure had it all planned out. You even want to find Manshi a rich husband and continue living your rich wife’s life. Manshi is still young, how can you bear to do that?”

There was a possibility that the Zhao family would go bankrupt. Tang Chunxiu could not sit still and began to crazily arrange blind dates for Zhao Manshi. Zhao Jing saw everything and clicked his tongue in wonder. “Husband and wife are birds in the same forest. When disaster strikes, they fly separately.”

“I’m not your wife. When my second child got lost back then, I stopped treating you as my husband!” Tang Chunxiu rebuked angrily.

Zhao Jing smoked and mocked, “Was that really an accident?”

Tang Chunxiu averted her eyes and felt a little guilty. “Of course she got lost by accident… I-I can’t possibly throw away a five-year-old child…”

Zhao Jing laughed, his ear-piercing laughter filled with mockery.

The opening red carpet of the Capital Film Festival ended very quickly.

The organizers posted all the pictures of the female stars on the red carpet and put them on the internet for the three-day selection of the best red carpet style.

In previous years, the best red carpet style was usually won by the famous actress Cao Yuezhi.

But this year, there was a little surprise — Gu Manxi.

She looked like a Greek goddess, directly suppressing Cao Yuezhi’s peony look.
