It was nearing one in the morning.
Jiang Ning returned to his bedroom in Villa A17 after brewing wine. After a shower, he sat down at his computer.
He checked the account balance on his phone. The evening's earnings had reached over 400 million yuan. After taxes and the Huayin Platform's commission, he had just over 300 million yuan in his account.
The amount left him in disbelief. Earning money could be this effortless?
If he streamed a few more times, even if the earnings weren't as high as this first time, tens of millions or even over a hundred million should be achievable.
Just as Jiang Ning was about to close his computer...
*Knock, knock.*
There was a knock at the door.
"Hold on a sec," he replied, getting up and walking to the door. He opened it.
Su Meng stood there, holding two wine glasses in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other.
She wore a pink silk robe, its sheer fabric hinting at the curves beneath, which made Jiang Ning momentarily lose his composure.
"Honey, where did you go just now? Want a drink?" Su Meng smiled, her lips curving into a seductive smile.
"Oh, oh, it's so late. Why aren't you asleep yet, sweetheart? I thought you'd already gone to bed."
Jiang Ning quickly regained his composure, feeling slightly embarrassed. His earlier lapse in self-control made him blush.
Su Meng shot Jiang Ning an annoyed glance. "I can't sleep, husband. You still haven't answered my question."
Her coquettish demeanor was utterly seductive, a sight no man could resist.
"Alright, come in. We can have a drink," Jiang Ning said, stepping aside.
After they settled down, Jiang Ning was about to rise when Su Meng quickly stopped him. "No need, husband. Just a few drinks will be fine."
"Alright, as you wish, wife," Jiang Ning agreed, sitting back down.
"Husband, will the herbal medicine you gave me tonight really allow me to conceive in six months?" Su Meng asked, still worried.
"Don't worry, wife. Trust me. If I say it can happen, it will. I'll give you acupuncture as well later—that will enhance the effects. You'll conceive sooner rather than later," Jiang Ning replied confidently.
"Husband, you still haven't answered me. What were you doing out so late?" Su Meng pressed.
"Oh, I was brewing wine at Villa A17. I only get time for my own things after Mengmeng's asleep," Jiang Ning explained.
Su Meng said with concern, "Husband, you're working too hard. Why don't we hire some nannies or ask my dad to send some over?"
"Alright, let's ask Dad to send someone over to help manage the garden. They can also help with the door and mopping when visitors come," Jiang Ning said after a moment's thought.
After all, Old Master Tang's kitchen was likely to be renovated and ready in the next couple of days.
Once it was done, they might need to spend more time there researching new dishes and high-end ingredients.
While they could always go at night after Mengmeng was asleep, having a nanny would be necessary. If Su Meng had to go on business trips again, they couldn't leave Mengmeng alone at home while they went out to work.
Su Meng suggested, "Then let's ask Aunt Wang from my dad's side to come over. She's hardworking and meticulous, and I grew up with her around."
Jiang Ning raised his wine glass. "No problem. Cheers."
They drained their glasses in one go.
"Honey, how much in donations did the live stream earn tonight?" Su Meng asked, smoothing her hair.
"After deductions, it was over 340 million."
Su Meng's eyes widened in astonishment. "That much?"
This live streaming thing was making money too easily.
That 300 million would have taken the Su Group three days of intense work, with nearly 100,000 employees working hard, on their current project with Schmidt.
Jiang Ning earning so much in less than an hour made Su Meng question her life.
"Honey, the number of viewers watching live this time is overwhelming."
Su Meng agreed, "You're right. You're a super-influencer now. Even the most popular influencers usually only attract hundreds of thousands of viewers. Your numbers are astonishing."
Jiang Ning took a sip of red wine. "Actually, it's all thanks to Huayin Platform's strong support. They opened up their largest traffic pool. Without that, it would have been impossible to get so many people into the live stream."
Su Meng nodded in agreement. "Yeah, and it's a good thing you re-registered the 'Dance Dream Boy' account. Otherwise, the 'Tap Dance King' controversy might never have died down."
Jiang Ning sighed. "Indeed. All that chasing and harassment was seriously disrupting our daily lives, mine and Mengmeng's."
Su Meng studied him, her eyes slightly hazy. "Honey, how are you teaching Mengmeng? I came home from work this afternoon and saw her math workbook. She's already learned multiplication and division, and she can calculate addition and subtraction within 100 with perfect accuracy."
Jiang Ning said proudly, "Honey, don't you think our little girl is incredibly talented, especially her memory and focus? When I teach her something, she pays such close attention, afraid of missing even the smallest detail. That's why she learns so quickly."
Su Meng worried, "But I'm concerned she's learning too much. Will she end up being a master of none?"
Jiang Ning replied, "Right now, Mengmeng is doing well in drawing, math, and English. She might be working hard on English to make friends with foreign children and communicate with them quickly.
She's naturally interested in drawing and math, so she picks those up fast.
Piano and singing might be due to our influence. She's not as enthusiastic about language arts and calligraphy."
Su Meng said with concern, "Oh, she's still so young. Honey, take her out to play more and don't put too much pressure on her."
Jiang Ning agreed, "I know. I've thought about that.
I want her to grow up happy every day. When the time comes, I'll focus on her drawing, math, and English.
For everything else, I'll let her choose whether to learn or play. I won't force her."
"Thank you, husband," Su Meng said gratefully. "Mengmeng is like this today all thanks to your hard work."
"Wife, what are you talking about?" Jiang Ning replied. "Mengmeng is my daughter. If I don't treat her well, who else should I?"
"We're husband and wife. No need for thanks. Come on, let's have another glass. Bottoms up!"
"Cheers."
They chatted and laughed for less than half an hour before the bottle of wine was empty.
Reluctantly, Su Meng stood up. "Alright, the wine's finished. It's getting late. Husband, you should get some rest."
As she said this, Su Meng felt both conflicted and hopeful.
Jiang Ning's somewhat awkward response left her slightly disappointed.
"Okay, you get some rest too, wife," Jiang Ning said, standing up to walk Su Meng to the door.
He had actually wanted to pull Su Meng into his arms, but as a shy young man inexperienced in such matters, he feared his impulsiveness might damage their relationship.
Just as they were about to leave, Su Meng feigned a twisted ankle. "Ah!"
Su Meng pretended to stumble.
Jiang Ning rushed forward, catching her arm.
Su Meng leaned into his embrace.
"What's wrong? Honey, did you twist your ankle?" Jiang Ning asked anxiously.
"No, no, I'm fine. My foot just went a little numb," Su Meng replied, tightening her grip around his waist.
The intoxicating scent of her body and the feel of her slender, boneless waist ignited an inexplicable fire within Jiang Ning. He swept her into his arms and pinned her against the bed.
Su Meng's body trembled, her eyes gently closed, her heart pounding wildly.
Looking down at the beauty beneath him, Jiang Ning's desire became unbearable. He lowered his head and softly kissed her lips.
At first, both were tense, their kiss clumsy and hesitant. Gradually, their kisses deepened, intertwining as one.
After ten minutes, Jiang Ning's hands began to slide beneath the hem of her nightgown.
Suddenly sensing his intentions, Su Meng tensed, grabbing his hand. She opened her eyes and shoved him away.
"Alright, husband, it's getting late. Let's get some rest."
Su Meng stood up nervously, lowered her head, and fled the room like a little rabbit, her face flushed crimson.
*Clang!*
The door closed, and the bedroom fell silent. Jiang Ning touched his lips, a smile spreading across his face. That had been Su Meng's first kiss. So this was what kissing felt like—so sweet.
He sat on the edge of the bed, his heart still racing, replaying the scene over and over in his mind.
Su Meng's softness, her delicate fragrance, that fleeting kiss... Everything stirred an unprecedented thrill within him.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart, but a smile involuntarily tugged at the corners of his lips.
Meanwhile, Su Meng returned to her room, leaning against the door, her heart still pounding wildly.
Her cheeks flushed crimson. She gently touched her lips, as if she could still feel Jiang Ning's warmth.
Her emotions were a tangled mess—sweetness, shyness, even a hint of regret.
"Was I... too impulsive just now?" Su Meng murmured to herself.
