Chapter 1056 - 99: Starlight Shines Bright, Only Deep Affection Must Not Be Forsaken [Total Finale]
In the second autumn, with the return of Shen Funni, He Qimo’s search for a wife finally reached a perfect end.This year, if you ask what Qiu Zhixuan did at home all day,
it was giving birth to and raising children, and competing with Li Zhi in a feud involving the children.
The departure of Feng Chengxuan made Li Zhi’s mood fluctuate between good and bad, almost in a state of semi-insanity, allowing her sporadic moments of civility in public, but privately clashing with Qiu Zhixuan, sometimes even venting her anger on the children.
Yu Xi knew nothing, often stunned into silence by his mother’s outbursts and reprimands.
Angered and feeling sorry for Yu Xi, Qiu Zhixuan handed him the key to the villa in Ping Lake District, telling Yu Xi to stay there.
Yu Xi had pretty much forgotten what needed forgetting, bewildered by some of his mother’s behavior, but still happily avoided her by staying with his uncle.
There was a game room in the villa over there!
It was heaven!
This behavior made Li Zhi even angrier and more enraged.
Qiu Zhixuan wasn’t the least bit willing to yield.
The conflict between the sisters-in-law continued to escalate.
Confronting Li Zhi’s occasional fits of temper and twittering of blame, "Qiu Zhixuan! You, a woman who instigated the divorce between the elder sister-in-law and elder brother, have become a laughingstock in the community, absolutely unaware of it! Furthermore, what do you have to be proud of! Chengxuan hasn’t come back, I remain the number one madam in Rong City, it won’t be your turn!"
Qiu Zhixuan couldn’t care less about being the number one madam.
However, since Li Zhi cared, she was especially resistant to letting Li Zhi have her way.
While other matters were manageable, over the past year, Qiu Zhixuan re-engaged with Fengyi Company’s affairs, as the top shareholder and half a board member, reinitiating project contact. Some of the business, despite her fading energies with pregnancy, had already followed a respectable trajectory toward stabilization.
In dealing with family matters, the resignation of Ge An, the appointment of the new assistant housekeeper, Qiu Zhixuan collaborated very smoothly.
The new housekeeper liked Qiu Zhixuan’s temperament, and the old housekeeper Li Rui began to slowly accept her more, having only needed to consult Ye Xilan and Li Zhi previously, now also ensured to ask her more often.
Except in one aspect: socializing—
In the spring of 2021, Shen Funni and He Qimo were about to get married.
This was an exceedingly positive event, her husband Feng Chengjin’s consistent assistance to the young couple allowed Qiu Zhixuan to see He Qimo achieving lovers’ fulfillment, offering her considerable relief.
The affection He Yunshen had for her daughter Yu Che made Qiu Zhixuan’s eyes increasingly joyful.
But during the evening when she joined the Feng Family for another party.
Perhaps Qiu Zhixuan’s smile at the corner of her lips was overly radiant.
Vague whispers reached her ears.
"Isn’t Qiu Zhixuan supposed to be Mr. He’s ex-wife?"
"Indeed, her ex-husband is getting married, why is she smiling so happily?"
"Ah, don’t you know? Mr. He found that popular actress Shen Jian妮 from years ago, surely Qiu Zhixuan is feeling triumphant, having snagged such a wonderful man as President Feng, of course, she’s feeling on top of the world!"
These words made Qiu Zhixuan almost frown and turn to ask, "Do you have to be so boringly jealous? Am I that vulgar?"
But before she could explode.
Just as she turned her head.
Those women seemed to realize she had looked over.
Suddenly, each of them smiled with an unnatural, sycophantic kindness.
"Oh, Mrs. Feng, how are you so gorgeous? You have maintained such a good figure even after having two children."
"Indeed, it’s no wonder the diamond bachelor number one of Rong City was enraptured by you."
"Hey, it can’t be put that way! Clearly, it was Rong City’s Third Young Master Feng’s excellent taste, taking Rong City’s number one beauty home and achieving perfect accomplishments."
The implication of those words was that she only had a good look to show, seemingly reduced to a mere vase!
Just as she contemplated saying something, these women’s demeanors were increasingly impeccable, that fawning obsequiousness, as if they hadn’t whispered behind her back beforehand!
Their eyes smiled like affectionate real sisters.
Qiu Zhixuan felt quite frustrated.
With Feng Chengjin’s backing, those women had nothing to offer besides jealousy.
However, being perceived as a vase was indeed the reality without influence...
Sipping her lips awkwardly with a smile, she turned to leave.
But just at that moment,
Shen Funni arrived!
Hot mom Shen Funni presented a truly admirable image beyond words.
Just a month ago, He Qimo declared happy news—they were expecting a second child.
Today, Shen Funni’s presence adhered unfazed by any tummy movements, carrying cute little He Yunshen as she walked in.
Arriving at the gala, knowing his manners, He Yunshen held his mother’s neck and kissed, then said: "Mom, I’ll walk by myself."
Shen Funni smiled and then set her son down.
The already four-year-old He Yunshen naturally first glanced and sought his future "mother-in-law" Qiu Zhixuan the beauty.
In a suave little suit, He Yunshen ran to Qiu Zhixuan, looking up and saying: "Aunt Qiu, did sister come today?"
Qiu Zhixuan squatted, patting He Yunshen’s little head with a smile, "Your sister is too young, she didn’t come today, we have a nanny caring for her at home, if you want to see her, wait until the party is over, we’ll go home and see her, alright?"
"Alright." He Yunshen, markedly sensible, also knowing today’s circumstances, agreed taking his sister-in-law Yu Che was not ideal.
With a very gentlemanlike smile, he moved on to report to Feng Chengjin!

At this moment, an aside featuring Feng Chengjin (Little Epilogue 15): You brat! Don’t come here!
He Yunshen: Uncle Feng, why not?
Feng Chengjin: I hate any male trying to steal my daughter away from me!
He Yunshen pondered briefly: But you won’t be able to accompany her to old age, plus you can’t block her from giving you grandchildren!
Feng Chengjin: You rascal! Who taught you this speech!
He Yunshen: Grandma Hua Xi.
In a small room, Hua Xi was munching on chips, drinking iced tea, watching as Feng Chengjin strode in with a thirty-nine-meter-long great sword.
Hua Xi was startled: What are you doing!
Feng Chengjin: I’m going to kill you!
Thus, in the small room emerged Hua Xi’s bouncing presence, and Feng Chengjin wielding a super sword, showcasing five-second true male charisma!
Hua Xi: Mama ka! Can this writing go on properly? If you continue chopping, the hard-working mother will be all gone!
Feng Chengjin roared: Who told you to bully me from start to finish! Bullying me is one thing, but bullying my daughter! Let me clarify! I’m into wife and daughter management! If you dare send my daughter out! It won’t end well between us!
At this moment, Feng Yuzhe wore a forlorn expression: Dad...did you forget your adorable baby?
Feng Chengjin: ...

Beside the wine table.
Shen Funni saw her son had run off, smilingly approached, "Zhixuan!"
Qiu Zhixuan lifted her eyes, looking at the woman soon to be married, the corners of her lips couldn’t help but lift.
Yet, before she could get a word in toward Shen Funni.
Li Zhi and her few female friends happened to walk over...
