.....

"That is a very sexist reasoning," Lily grumbled.

"But I thought you wanted a son?"

"Really?" Zhou Dae Un looked at Lily. "You wanted a son? Why? Wouldn't it be too cute to have a daughter? You know… we can buy clothes and accessories and have pink rooms and lots of shoes! Maybe even a walk-in closet!"

Lily smiled. "I really would love to have a son but… I will love my child no matter the gender. Of course… I will also make a walk-in closet for my son. Of course, with a lot of accessories and shoes for him." Zhou Jingren nodded, proud at his wife's words.

"Still, I think it's a boy." He added.

"Why don't you just have a check-up so you can be sure about the gender? I mean… we need to prepare the room and the baby's things." Zhou Dae Un suggested before she frowned. "Sadly, there were some changes in my schedule and I won't be able to spend a lot of time with you after you gave birth. But… I will of course help you guys out after everything. I promise it won't take a week or two."

"It's alright, Jingren will be there with me." Just talking about giving birth and them being new parents seemed to make Lily's heart jump with joy. Is this really normal for someone pregnant? She beamed. "Of course… he needed to take classes in changing diapers and stuff."

"Mrs. Zhou is clearly underestimating me." He responded, his gentle eyes landed on his wife's blooming face. "I grew up in an orphanage. I am quite familiar with taking care of children. Or at least I watched a lot of people take care of babies. It should not be that hard."

Seeing Lily and Zhou Jingren's banter like this immediately made Zhou Dae Un smile. Seeing the two in a peaceful and loving relationship like this seemed to assure her that Zhou Jingren will live a very happy life. She sighed inwardly. Her biggest regret is not being with Zhou Jingren when he was still a child. However, this time, she sincerely hoped that she could be there for the couple as they celebrated one of the greatest joys in their relationship. "Ah! Before I forget!" She gave Lily her tablet. "Look… "

"What is this?" Lily looked at the image full of sparkling balls and socks.

"It's a theme!" Zhou Dae Un exclaimed. "You two are always busy with your work. So… I figured I will do the decorating part for Christmas! What do you think?"

"Silver and gold?" Zhou Jingren asked when he saw the image.

"Hmmm. Sparkled and glitz and glamour. I know Lily loves sparkling things so… why not? This would be the first Christmas that you guys will celebrate in your own home, so I thought… we should all make it memorable."

"This— "

"Don't you like it?" the smile on Zhou Dae Un's face instantly vanished when she saw Lily's face reddened.

"No… it's just… thank you!" Lily said. Lily was not very good at styling, so having someone take care of these things is pretty convenient. "I love it!" With all the sparkling things on the image, there is no way that Lily would not love it. Moreover, Zhou Dae Un was right, this is the first Christmas that Lily and Zhou Jingren will have on the house. This is not something that they should take lightly.

"Great!" Zhou Dae Un beamed. "Now… swiped to the left if you wanted to see the Christmas tree! It is going to be silver and gold with lots of chic white lights! Plus… I am planning to add more lighting into the mansion the next time that I visit." She then excitedly started talking about decorations and even the decorations for the house in Switzerland.

Both Lily and Zhou Jingren only smiled as they listened to her wonderful suggestions. After a few more minutes, Zhou Jingren asked his mother if she wanted to join them for dinner. However, the latter immediately said that she needed to go. She had actually forgotten that her own husband wanted to have dinner with her when she got home. Zhou Dae Un spent a lot of time talking about decorations and the baby that she had forgotten about her beloved husband!

Lily and Zhou Jingren immediately laughed as they watched Zhou Dae Un strode out of the room while talking to her husband.

"I actually forgot about Christmas!" Lily said the moment Zhou Dae Un left. "Who forgets about Christmas?"

"We were pretty occupied, you know." He pulled her towards his lap and kissed her forehead. "How was work?"

"Busy. How about you? How about that matter?"

"What matter?" he chuckled.

"That matter!"

"Alright… stop pouting." He let out another low chuckle. "But it should be done. Bei Tian made it look like it was the same pirate as the one from South East Asia. We're all good. In the next few days… we will attack another two."

"That was pretty impressive, Mr. Zhou. Thank you! And send my thanks to Bei Tian, too. I should probably cook for him one of these days!"

"Hmmm. You should do that the next time he comes back!" Zhou Jingren beamed. "How about your meeting? Did you find out anything?"

"Actually… I did." Lily then told him the findings of her analysis so far from their reactions as the two went to their car so they could go home and enjoy some dinner.

"So… you are saying that there is some sort of a civil war inside the Corneel Family?" he asked, his eyes were outside of the car as he thought about Lily's words.

"Probably." She shrugged. "But… Herman and his younger brother are pretty close. I can smell a rift between them and their father. I don't know… I feel like they don't want me to buy the company, which is against their father's wishes. If their opinions are clashing, then… there is a possibility that their cordial smiles were nothing but a show, a facade. And that something else is going on behind the scenes."

"Then… I believe telling Qin Yuanfeng to monitor all the Corneel's phone calls is the right thing to do." Zhou Jingren turned towards his wife. "If someone is forcing him to sell his company, then… we will know it once he dials their number tonight."
