Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: You Have No Talent, But Your Girlfriend Does

When she saw her sister's new car, Shen Han felt a pang of frustration, and hearing her sister's family mock Li Bin made her even more upset, as though he had shamed her completely.

Yet at the critical moment, Li Bin astonished everyone—he reversed the situation and dealt her sister's family a crushing blow.

For the first time, Shen Han—always belittled by her sister—felt genuine relief. She looked at Li Bin with glowing pride and joy, and the more she looked, the more she admired him.

Du Bin's face darkened at his aunt's remarks.

Previously, every visit to the Wen household had been Du Bin's chance to boast his superiority over Li Bin; with such a "failure" of a son‑in‑law, he had always been the hero. But today—on the very day he arrived to flaunt his new Mercedes—Li Bin turned the tables on him repeatedly.

Suddenly, he was the one being looked down upon. Seeing Yu Yinyan's adoring gaze on Li Bin and his mother fawning over him, Du Bin clenched his fists and burned with rage, itching to storm out.

"Sister‑in‑law, you must be joking. Li Bin may have graduated from a regular university, but his writing is impressive. I think Bin Bin should give it a shot," Shen Yun interjected, eyes pleading with Li Bin. "Right, Li Bin?"

"Sorry, Aunt," Li Bin replied with a courteous smile. "This isn't about education—it's about talent. Du Bin simply doesn't have the gift. But Yinyan showed real promise in college; she earned a good sum writing on the side. If she studies under me, she'll have a bright future."

"Who wants to learn something so frivolous? I don't care about writing novels! You just got lucky once—how long can that last? One hit doesn't mean a career," Du Bin retorted stubbornly. "Yinyan and I will launch a business and grow it to an IPO. Isn't that far better?"

"Writing is far better! I've loved reading and writing since I was a child. Becoming a writer is my dream. If my brother‑in‑law will teach me, of course I want to learn! Won't you teach me, brother‑in‑law?" Yu Yinyan's challenge landed another blow to Du Bin's pride.

"Of course. As Du Bin's girlfriend—and soon my family—it's my duty," Li Bin said with a big‑brother grin, while inwardly plotting how to win over this future sister‑in‑law with her baby face and ample curves.

Yu Yinyan was still a virgin; he had to act quickly—before Du Bin—to claim her first night.

"That's wonderful! Thank you so much, brother‑in‑law!" Yu Yinyan exclaimed, her bright eyes sparkling.

"Ahem… Li Bin, you've made money writing—no need to get cocky. What Du Bin said isn't entirely wrong; it's not a stable path. Save your earnings; don't blow them all. You still don't own a house, right? That amount wouldn't even cover a down payment," Du Jianguo interjected.

Du Jianguo had already put down a deposit on a 120 m² apartment for Du Bin—now worth over three million. When he bought it for just over a million, its value had more than doubled.

Mentioning the house was meant to pressure Li Bin; with only eighty thousand, he couldn't even afford a down payment. Compared to real estate, Li Bin's earnings seemed trivial.

"You're right, Uncle. I'll work hard to buy a house this year," Li Bin said sincerely.

Seeing his earnestness, Du Jianguo's family relaxed.

"Good," Shen Han said, beaming. "It's late; let's eat." Since accepting Li Bin as her son‑in‑law, she had never been happier. She had finally released her years of frustration. Tonight, she sat him in the place of honor and served him herself, lavishing praise on him.

Although Li Bin enjoyed the flattery, memories of past criticisms left a lingering bitterness.
