Chapter 38 -38: Son, Send Ying’er Home (Request for Collecting Third Updates)
On her first meeting with the elder members of the Yan family, even though it was only her third meeting with the Yan junior, Zhu Qianying found herself enjoying the dinner very much.
Yan Bo and his wife were very warm towards her; their enthusiasm didn’t feel restraining, but instead, was comforting and made her feel at ease.
Perhaps because she was in a good mood, or maybe the Yan family’s chef was really talented, Zhu Qianying’s appetite was exceptionally large, and she found herself eating more than usual.
Yan junior is already used to her eating habits and was unfazed by her appetite.
Yan’s wife, on the other hand, was delighted to see her eating with relish and couldn’t help sneaking glances at her during the meal.
The more she looked at Zhu Qianying, with her bowl in hand and mouth full of food, the more she resembled a cute rabbit munching on a carrot. Had she not been afraid of embarrassing Zhu, she would have taken out a camera to capture this adorable moment.
It was then that they truly realized that Zhu Qianying was only twenty years old.
The dinner was enjoyable for both guests and hosts.
After dinner, the elder Yan suggested to take a walk in the garden to help digest the food.
Zhu Qianying, who was always active and curious about the outside world, agreed readily. The moment she stepped into the Yan family’s large courtyard for the first time, she was immediately attracted to it.
As they strolled, Yan’s wife and Zhu Qianying walked in front, while the two old men of the Yan family followed behind them. Zhu Qianying occasionally overheard them discussing the Yan family’s business matters.
Unlike the Zhu family, which was mainly involved in hotel management, Yanhua Group had a diverse range of businesses, with real estate and infrastructure being the main pillars, supplemented by numerous other industries.
“I heard you studied hotel management in university. Are you currently working in your family’s hotel?” Yan’s wife inquired, bringing Zhu Qianying’s attention back to the conversation.
Instead of being nosy, Yan’s wife genuinely cared about Zhu Qianying’s situation.
She still remembered her son telling her that Zhu Qianying was currently unemployed.
“No, I am not interested in hotel management,” Zhu Qianying answered without hesitation.
“Are you really not interested?” Yan’s wife studied her under the light.
“Yes indeed! I was forced by my father to study this major. Since he does not insist I work at Mingxuan after graduation, I am simply enjoying my freedom.”
Zhu Qianying couldn’t figure out why her father was so insistent on her and Xiao Yu to study hotel management, threatening to withdraw their university funding if they didn’t comply.
At first, she thought her father was finally showing concern for her and her sister. But later, she realized that he had never planned for them to be involved in the core management of Mingxuan.
Luckily, she woke up in her sophomore year and decided to pursue her own interests while pretending to comply with her father’s demands. This allowed her to financially support Xiao Yu and occasionally help her disadvantaged mother.
“Well, it’s good to do something you like while you’re young,” Yan’s wife commented.
She had a carefree childhood until the age of ten, being pampered like a little princess by everyone in the Tong family. But after turning ten, her father suddenly became strict and forced her to undergo physical and martial arts training even more rigorous than boys. He also started bringing her to various deals and violent scenes.
She did not understand at that time that her father was grooming her as the next head of the family.
When she was ten, her mother had to have her uterus removed due to illness, which meant that she would be the only child in the Tong family.
So, from that moment on, her carefree princess life ended, and the heavy responsibility of becoming the future head of the Tong family fell on her ten-year-old shoulders.
Therefore, nobody could understand better the pain and helplessness of being bound by parental legacy.
In a sense, Zhu Qianying’s situation might not be a bad thing.
At least, she could stay away from the vortex of the Zhu family’s business disputes and live the life she wants at her own pace.
After walking in the courtyard for over an hour in the company of the two young people, Zhu Qianying spent most of her time listening to Yan’s wife’s chatter.
Most of the time, she only replied when Yan’s wife asked her something. For the rest, she played the role of a listener.
By the time they returned from the walk, it was already nine o’clock. Not wanting to overstay her welcome, Zhu Qianying said goodnight to the two elders and prepared to leave.
Yan’s wife didn’t insist on her staying. After nodding in agreement, she took Zhu’s hand and said, “Your uncle and I will be staying here until after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Han’ son is busy with work and doesn’t have much time to spend with us. If you have time, come and visit us. It’s rare for us old folks to spend time with young people. It makes us feel younger.”
Zhu Qianying nodded in agreement. After putting on her bag handed over by Mr. Hai, He handed her another large bag.
“Mr. Hai, what’s this?”
Mr. Hai glanced at Yan’s wife, “These are some local products they brought back from their trip. Take some home to eat.”
With a grateful smile, Zhu Qianying accepted the gift, “Thank you, Uncle, Auntie!”
Yan’s wife patted her shoulder, then turned to her son, who was already sitting on the sofa, “Son, send Ying’er home.”
Zhu Qianying shook her head, “Auntie, it’s enough to just have a driver take me home.” She wouldn’t dare to trouble Yan junior for a ride.
Yan junior nodded in agreement, seemingly unwilling to move from the sofa.
“That’s right, having the driver send her home will suffice.”
Zhu Qianying, who was used to Yan junior’s attitude, bid farewell to the elders and Mr. Hai, and left with the large bag of items given to her by Mr. Hai.
Seeing Yan junior’s indifferent attitude, Yan’s wife’s face darkened, and she rushed into the living room like a gust of wind, kicking Yan junior’s leg.
“Go, take Ying’er home!”
Yan junior nursed his sore leg, glaring at his mother with an aggrieved expression, “Tong Xiaohua, you can’t be my biological mother, can you?”
Yan’s wife glared back at him, “Are you going or not?”
Finally, Yan junior couldn’t withstand his mother’s pressure and reluctantly stood up, “Alright, I’ll go. But you’re so mean!”
Yan’s wife said nothing, just glared at him one more time, causing him to sulkingly follow Zhu Qianying out the door.
As Zhu Qianying followed the driver to the underground garage, she heard footsteps behind her. Thinking the old lady had come to tell her something else, she turned around, only to see a tall man following her, and her face filled with surprise.
