Chapter 0038: You have no talent, but your girlfriend does.
When she saw her sister's family's new car earlier, she had felt a pang of bitterness. Now, hearing her sister's family belittle and mock her son-in-law, she was even more frustrated with him, feeling that Li Bin had brought her nothing but shame!
But she never expected that her son-in-law, Li Bin, would shock everyone at the critical moment, ruthlessly slapping her sister's family across the face.
This was a rare moment of relief for Shen Han, who had always been overshadowed by her sister's family!
The look she gave Li Bin was filled with pride and delight!
Right now, the more Shen Han looked at her son-in-law, the more she liked and satisfied she was!

Hearing his aunt speak of him this way, Du Bin's face immediately darkened.
In the past, every time he visited the Wen family, Du Bin would flaunt his superiority over Li Bin. With a good for nothing son-in-law like Li Bin around, he was always the one being fawned over.
He never expected that on the very first day he brought his beloved girlfriend in a new Mercedes to show off, he would be the one to have his face slapped by Li Bin.
He had become the one being shown up!!
Seeing his girlfriend looking at Li Bin with worship and his mother with a fawning expression, Du Bin's face turned purple with rage. He clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could just leave.
"Sis, you can't say that. Li Bin is just a regular university graduate too, and isn't he writing well now? I think, our Bin Bin can give it a try..." Shen Yun, still unwilling to give up, looked at Li Bin with pleading, fawning eyes and said, "Li Bin, don't you agree?"
"Sorry, Auntie, this doesn't have much to do with education, but it does require talent. Du Bin doesn't have the talent for this, I'm afraid I can't teach him. But I think Yinyan is very talented. She can earn so much just writing in her spare time during college. If she learns from me, her future will be limitless." Li Bin smiled, looking at Yu Yinyan, who was gazing at him with adoration, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Who wants to learn such an improper thing! I don't want to write any trashy web novels! So you got lucky and made some money, is that really such a big deal? How long can a career like that last? You get lucky with one book, but does that mean every book will be a hit? Our Yinyan is not going to learn to write books. She'll start a business with me. We'll grow our family company and take it public. Isn't that much better than this?" Du Bin, stubbornly holding on to his pride, retorted with his neck craned.
"Writing is definitely great! I love writing and reading! Being a writer has been my dream since I was a child! If Brother-in-law is willing to teach me, I'm definitely willing to learn. Brother-in-law, can you teach me?" Yu Yinyan didn't give Du Bin any face at all, loudly slapping him in the face with her uncooperative words.

"Of course! You're our Bin Bin's girlfriend, so we'll be family soon. It's only right that I teach you." Li Bin smiled warmly, putting on the magnanimous expression of an elder brother.
But in his heart, he was thinking about how to seduce the large-breasted future sister-in-law in front of him.
Yu Yinyan was still a virgin, and he had to make his move quickly. He had to get his hands on Yu Yinyan's first night before his cousin Du Bin did.
"That's wonderful! Thank you so much, Brother-in-law!!" Yu Yinyan was more excited than if she had won the lottery, her eyes sparkling with joy, her large, watery eyes filled with admiration for Li Bin.
"Cough... Li Bin, there's no need to be proud just for making some money from writing. Bin Bin wasn't entirely wrong. This isn't a proper career after all. You should save the money you earn, not spend it recklessly. You two haven't bought a house yet, have you? This little bit is probably not even enough for a down payment." Du Jianjun coughed awkwardly and said with an air of authority.
Du Jianjun had made some money from business in his early years and had long ago paid the down payment for a property for Du Bin.
Although the location was average and it was only about 120 square meters, at the current price of 30,000 per square meter, it was worth over three million.
When Du Jianjun bought the house, it had only cost a little over 1.1 million. In just a few years, its value had more than doubled.
Du Jianjun brought up the house now because he wanted to use it to put Li Bin in his place.
After all, a three or four million dollar house, even if Li Bin had over 800,000 now, it still wouldn't be enough for a down payment.
Compared to real estate, Li Bin's little bit of money was nothing!
"Uncle is right. I'll work harder and strive to buy a house this year." Li Bin nodded very sincerely.
Seeing Li Bin's sincere attitude, Du Jianjun's family felt a little better.
"Alright, alright, it's getting late. Everyone, sit down and eat." Shen Han was in an absolutely wonderful mood today. Ever since taking in Li Bin as a live-in son-in-law, she had never been this happy!
Today, she had finally vented the frustration that had been suffocating her!
In the past, Shen Han would always have Li Bin sit at the lowest seat. Today, she deliberately pulled Li Bin to sit next to her in the host's seat, serving him food while cheerfully praising him.
Although Li Bin enjoyed this kind of fawning attention, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of displeasure when he thought about how he used to be criticized at every meal.
