Chapter 7: Ten-fold tonic soup

No matter how much the two of them care, they cannot change the fate of most people. In this environment, the power of an individual is so small. Sometimes there are things that even the country is powerless to change, or cannot prevent them from happening.

Soon, the dishes were ready. Mr. Shen was in a good mood today. He took out a bottle of Feitian Moutai and opened it. He insisted that Yang Hai drink two glasses with him, and also persuaded Shen Ruobing to drink a little as well.

Shen Ruobing is a businessman, and drinking is sometimes inevitable, so he can drink a little.

Everyone chatted while drinking.

"Mom! You told us to come over and drink the nourishing soup you made. Where is the nourishing soup you made?" Shen Ruobing asked.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Good soup should be cooked slowly. Only then will the soup be more nutritious and tasty." Mother Shen said with a smile.

"After you finish drinking and eating, it's also good to drink the soup. It can also help you sober up and serve as a hangover soup."

"Yes, yes, yes! Save the soup for last." Father Shen also said.

"How can there be such a saying? Don't we drink soup before meals?" Shen Ruobing said, feeling strange.

"That's under normal circumstances. Today's situation is not normal." Mother Shen said.

"Ahai! Last time I heard you say that you wanted to set up an investment company. Have you solved the funding issue?" Father Shen started chatting with Yang Hai again.

"How about I give you 100 million as the start-up capital for your company?"

"Thank you, Dad. But I have solved the funding problem myself. I will find an office building and set up the company soon." Yang Hai said.

"We already have an office building at home, so what are you looking for?" said Mr. Shen.

"Ruobing, please vacate a floor in your company's office building for Ah Hai to use. It will be very convenient if you two can stay together."

"Your company doesn't need that much space anyway."

"Got it!" Shen Ruobing nodded, indicating her agreement.

"You found the funds so quickly? How did you find it? Who invested in you?" Mr. Shen asked curiously again.

"It's not anyone's investment. It's my personal money. I haven't thought about accepting investment from others for the time being." Yang Hai shook his head and said.

"Isn't it true that the more money an investment company has, the better? Why are you unwilling to accept investment from others?" Father Shen said.

"I'm also planning to give you several hundred million in funds for you to invest!"

"This...! When I'm short of funds and need it, I'll ask dad for it."

Yang Hai was a little intimidated by his father-in-law's tone, as he immediately offered to give him hundreds of millions of dollars.

It's a pity that they are not destined to be together. After all, they are not a true father-in-law and son-in-law relationship.
After drinking and eating, the last dish of the tonic soup was finally served.

Mother Shen helped Shen Luobing and Yang Hai, serving each of them a bowl and watched them drink the soup.

"Mom! Today's soup tastes so good. Give me another bowl." Shen Ruobing quickly finished a bowl of soup, licked her lips and said.

"By the way, why don't you two drink the soup?"

"This soup is prepared for the two of you to nourish your bodies. You two can drink it. We two don't need to drink it." Mother Shen said with a smile.

"You two drink this soup and get your bodies in good shape. Give us a grandson soon, so I don't have to stay at home and get bored."

"The soup is finished, you should go back to your room and rest. You will stay at home today. You need to rest after drinking the soup so that you can better absorb the nutrients."

The two people were forced into the room and lay on a bed. They soon felt something was wrong and their whole bodies were hot. Turning the air conditioner to the lowest temperature did not seem to solve the problem.

I still feel hot and want to take off my clothes, and even more want to be hugged by the opposite sex. "It's over! There's something wrong with the soup your mother gave us!"

Yang Hai soon felt something was wrong. He had an impulse to rush towards Shen Ruobing beside him and press her down hard.

"What should we do?" Shen Ruobing obviously felt something strange in her body, and she also realized that there was something wrong with the soup she drank tonight.

And she actually drank two big bowls. Her face was burning and red, and she couldn't help but want to get closer to Yang Hai.

Yang Hai smiled bitterly and said, "What can I do?"

"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing? We are a fake couple, not a real couple."

……

Mother Shen was very cruel and the punishment she gave was a bit heavy. Yang Hai and Shen Ruobing didn't wake up until noon the next day.

"Last night was an accident. It only happened this once. It doesn't mean that we are real husband and wife." Shen Ruobing was quite shy at first, but then she said seriously.

"This is the best. I won't hold you responsible for anything, nor will I ask for any additional mental compensation from you." Yang Hai nodded in agreement.

"What did you say?" Shen Ruobing looked at Yang Hai in shock, with an inexplicable sense of shame and anger on her face.

"You bastard, you took advantage of me and robbed me of my innocence, and you still have the nerve to ask me for mental compensation!"

"Hey, hey, hey! I rejected you last night and pushed you away, but it was you who insisted on throwing yourself at me." Yang Hai argued hurriedly.

"Think about it carefully. I didn't take off your clothes, did I?"

"And my clothes, did you help me take them off?"

"Isn't it right for me to ask you for some compensation, some mental damages?"

Although the two were a little unconscious at the time, they did not forget anything. They still had an impression of most of what had happened.

Shen Ruobing thought about it and tried hard to recall what happened last night. It seemed that it was all her initiative and it was all her responsibility.

Thinking of this situation, Shen Ruobing was speechless and even embarrassed to face Yang Hai.

Just then, I heard a knock on the door and the voice of Mother Shen.

"Are you two awake yet? If you are, get up and have lunch."

"If you haven't gotten enough sleep, have lunch and then go to sleep."

"Your mother is the culprit. Go blame your mother if you can." Yang Hai approached Shen Ruobing and whispered in his ear with a smile.

Anyway, he didn't suffer any loss from what happened last night, and what surprised him was that Shen Ruobing was actually a very pure girl. He got a great advantage.

Although Shen Ruobing lost her daughter, she had no way to express her pain. She couldn't really go to his mother to make trouble.

Besides, she and Yang Hai were a married couple who had obtained a marriage certificate. What could she say? She couldn't sue him even if she wanted to.

"Mom! What kind of soup did you give us last night?" Shen Ruobing asked her mother after she walked out of the room.

"It's the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup, also known as the Prosperity and Prosperity Soup for Many Children and Grandchildren." Mother Shen said with a smile.

"How do you feel? Will I be able to have a grandchild next year?"

When Shen Ruobing saw her mother like this, how could she not understand?
Besides stamping my feet in anger, what else can I say?
She couldn't tell her mother the truth and say that she and Yang Hai were not really married and that they were just a fake couple, right?
