Married at First Sight Chapter 4470

Seeing that Lan Ruoruo was losing her temper, Haitong interjected, “Miss Lan, why don’t you talk back? Keep arguing with Lao Qi—don’t let him win!”

Both turned to look at her.

Haitong gave a sheepish smile. “You two bickering is really entertaining.”

They’d been at it for years, and by now, they understood each other too well.

If it weren’t for all the verbal sparring, sparks might’ve flown between them.

This trip to Yangcheng with the kids wasn’t just for fun—Haitong was also carrying a heavy mission from their grandmother, second uncle, and second aunt: to pressure the seventh child into marriage. The task of matchmaking had landed on her, the eldest sister-in-law.

To her, Lao Qi and Lan Ruoruo seemed more like a pair of bickering lovers than enemies.

“Sister-in-law.”

“Sister Tong.”

Both called out to her at the same time.

Haitong just liked to watch the drama and didn’t mind the chaos.

At that moment, Lan Ruoruo’s secretary arrived with an ice pack.

She glanced at Zhan Wei’s swollen face, then at Haitong and the two children, and finally back at her own vice president.

“It’s fine. You can go back to work. I’ll return to the office later,” Lan Ruoruo said.

She didn’t want her secretary to witness her applying a facial mask to Zhan Wei.

The secretary nodded respectfully and left, full of unspoken questions.

As soon as the secretary was gone, Zhan Wei scooted his chair closer.

He sat down beside Lan Ruoruo.

That handsome face—now swollen—leaned in close. He tapped the swollen spot and said, “Lan Ruoruo, hurry up and put the mask on me. My face is so swollen it’s ruining my good looks.”

“If the media catches wind of this, my reputation will be destroyed—thanks to you. If I can’t get a wife because of this, you’ll have to compensate me with one.”

Lan Ruoruo snapped, “I didn’t ruin your reputation, and I haven’t seen you getting married anyway. If you’re still single, that’s on you. Don’t put it on me.”

“I’ll compensate you with a wife, sure. Want one? I can get you one in a minute. I’ve got plenty of young female employees in my company. I’m kind enough not to stick you with a bad one.”

“I’ll find you a wife as compensation. Want one? If you do, I can get you one in a minute. There are plenty of young female employees in my company. I still have a conscience—I wouldn’t give you a bad wife.”

“I’ll pick someone excellent with good character.”

“If it works out, you have to treat me to a wedding banquet and give me a proper thank-you gift. I won’t settle for less than a business contract worth one billion yuan.”

Zhan Wei: “…”

If she’s seriously offering him a wife as compensation… would he even dare accept?

Definitely not.

When he marries, he wants someone he genuinely likes—someone with good character and a clean family background. Ideally, she should also be from a family equal in status to theirs.

All six of his sisters-in-law and his brothers have well-matched marriages.

He can’t afford to fall short in comparison.

Character remains the top priority.

Every woman who’s married into the Zhan family—whether in the older generation or his sisters-in-law’s generation—has proven to be a good wife. He won’t break that legacy.

His grandmother always said that a good woman could bring prosperity for three generations.

The Zhan family’s continued success is, in part, thanks to the wise and capable women who joined their lineage.

As Lan Ruoruo spoke, she was already in action—holding an ice pack and gently applying it to Zhan Wei’s face.

They’d been feuding for years, but she’d always known he was handsome.

And he certainly knew she was beautiful.

Still, the two had never been this close before—so close that Lan Ruoruo started to question whether they were truly enemies.

She had to admit, this man was really good-looking—the most handsome one she’d ever encountered.

But it wasn’t just his appearance. He was capable too. Many men grumbled behind his back that he left them no room to thrive in business.

Countless businesswomen admired Zhan Wei. Most of them were older and had no shot at marrying him, but that didn’t stop them from constantly trying to set him up.
