The Hidden Dragon In-Law

Elizabeth Ma saw that Christopher Xiao seemed to be on the verge of compromise and quickly put on a flattering face, saying, "Oh honey, our family will definitely make money in the future! When Mary's company starts making money, she'll give the money to you to manage. From now on, you'll be in charge of our finances, okay?"

Hearing this, Christopher felt a bit more at ease.

Thinking that confronting Elizabeth head-on might not be beneficial, he decided to go along with her suggestion, tacitly accepting this solution.

Elizabeth thought to herself, Christopher, do you really think I can't handle you?

It's just that we don't have money now, so I'm saying you'll manage the finances, but it's just an empty promise.

Once we have money again, I'll definitely take back control of the finances!

Thinking of this, she felt very pleased and quickly coaxed Christopher, saying, "Honey, you're the best. Tomorrow, I'll cook your favorite braised prawns for you!"

Seeing the two of them get through this hurdle peacefully, Mary Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but James Ye was quite disappointed.

His father-in-law was truly spineless; even at the last moment, he backed down. It was hopeless.

Oh well, it's his life. If he chooses to continue suffering, let him be.
