My Perfect Female CEO-Chapter 304: I’ll Leave My Mengyao To You
Chapter 304: Chapter 304: I’ll Leave My Mengyao To You
"These two kids, always meddling. I’m the one in charge at home, but these two ungrateful brats forget the good I’ve done for them as their uncle and now they’re trying to control me. It’s ridiculous, they won’t even let me have a drink," Xu Dalong complained, pointing at the two sisters.
"Uncle, I wouldn’t dare to control you," Chu Biyao said, clinging to her uncle’s arm and murmuring in grievance.
"Uncle, isn’t your heart in bad condition? Auntie repeatedly warned us to supervise you together, prohibiting you from drinking," Chu Mengyao said weakly.
The two sisters saw their uncle was upset, and they felt a bit sad.
Xu Dalong was known to love drinking like his life depended on it. However, once he had health issues, the doctors advised him not to drink anymore, as it could be very dangerous. This led the whole family to strictly ban Xu Dalong from drinking.
"On a joyous day like today, why talk about this? It’s so disappointing," Xu Dalong remarked sulkily.
Chu Mengyao approached Ye Fan and tentatively asked, "My uncle has health issues, the doctor said he can’t drink. Can you see if it can be treated?"
She instantly pinned her hopes on Ye Fan.
"Yes, I can treat it, but we have to get him drunk first," Ye Fan said confidently.
"You really can treat it?!" Mengyao was ecstatic.
"How could I lie to you?" Ye Fan said easily.
"Thank you, you know, if my uncle could overcome his drinking habits, it would save a lot of trouble and worry," Mengyao said happily.
"No need to thank me, why be so formal?" Ye Fan smiled warmly.
Chu Mengyao gave Ye Fan a tender look before returning to her uncle, who was being clung to by her sister, and said generously, "Uncle, you can drink. As much as you want, just drink and be happy! Does that sound good?"
"Good, good, good." Xu Dalong was thrilled and pushed Chu Biyao aside, reproaching, "Look at how sensible Mengyao is, unlike you, who only advises me against drinking with that nonsense about health. So boring."
"Sis?" Biyao asked quietly about the reason, knowing that her sister would never do such a thing without reason.
Mengyao quietly explained, and Biyao’s eyes lit up, filled with gratitude as she glanced at Ye Fan, then pulled her uncle’s arm, and cheerfully said, "Uncle, I’ll take you to the reserved hotel now, so you can enjoy yourself drinking."
"Girl, you’re great, finally getting the idea." Xu Dalong smiled approvingly, then raised his voice, "You go entertain the other friends, I have something to say to Mengyao and Ye Fan."
After saying this, he went over to Ye Fan, looked him over briefly, and said with a smile, "You must be Ye Fan?"
"Uh, hello, I’m Ye Fan," Ye Fan replied politely.
"You, along with Mengyao, come with me." Xu Dalong said seriously, taking on the role of an elder.
With the end of her summer vacation, Xu Qianqian had already returned to school. From her daughter, Xu Dalong heard about the situation between Ye Fan and Mengyao. Officially he was here to drink, but his main purpose was to evaluate the man Mengyao had chosen.
Ye Fan and Mengyao exchanged a glance and followed Xu Dalong.
Biyao, along with others, also began moving.
The group set off in a fleet of luxury cars towards the reserved hotel.
In the car, Xu Dalong’s gaze flitted around Ye Fan, obvious in its inquiry. Ye Fan felt a bit uneasy under the scrutiny and asked casually, "Uncle, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Not bad, he’s a real man." Xu Dalong gave this evaluation, affirming with the perspective of someone experienced.
He exuberantly said, "Mengyao, you found a good man, you’ve got good taste."
Ye Fan felt slightly awkward; such words seemed too blunt. Even mentioning Mengyao’s choice of partner or boyfriend would sound better. Opening with ’man’ felt rather inappropriate.
"Uncle." Mengyao felt embarrassed, her face reddening, secretly blaming her younger cousin for having a loose tongue.
"Hehe, don’t feel shy, you should be proud to have found a good man, why be bashful?" Xu Dalong suggested traditionally, glancing at Mengyao.
"Uncle, our relationship isn’t what you think," Mengyao said, not knowing how else to explain.
"I imagine it’s like that, but your relationship is what?" Xu Dalong asked, his interest piqued.
"Oh, uncle, could you not tease us with this?" Mengyao said awkwardly.
"Not bad, really not bad, truly love is magical. I know the old Mengyao, she used to be, but now she seems completely different. She’s no longer as distant, and at least, she no longer has that aloofness that pushes people away. Her happiness is obvious on her face. More importantly, her blushing is so adorable, that’s the way a girl should be," Xu Dalong said, exceptionally pleased.
"Uncle," Mengyao reproached.
"Look, this side of her is also cute," Xu Dalong said earnestly.
"Ignoring you now." Mengyao turned her face away, blushing.
Understanding Mengyao’s thin skin, Xu Dalong stopped teasing her and looked at Ye Fan with interest, asking, "Ye Fan, do you think what I said just now makes sense?" freewēbnoveℓ.com
Ye Fan was uncomfortable; whether the old Mengyao or the current Mengyao, he found her lovely and couldn’t find faults. After some thought, he replied, "Doesn’t make sense."
"Doesn’t make sense? How so?" Xu Dalong was curious.
Chu Mengyao also listened attentively, puzzled how Ye Fan could say her uncle’s words didn’t make sense.
"As Mengyao’s elder, naturally you’d want her to be happier. But for me, Mengyao is warm-hearted under a cold exterior. Whether now or when I first met her, it’s the same, and I like it," Ye Fan said seriously.
"Indeed, the old saying holds true, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. No matter what Mengyao is like, as long as you like her, that’s all that matters," Xu Dalong laughed, very pleased.
Mengyao’s face reddened further, with Ye Fan expressing his affection for her in front of her uncle, his boldness was apparent.
"Frankly, we used to worry if Mengyao could find a husband. Her career was so successful, she even had the title of the top strong woman, with such high status and identity. Which good man would dare approach? Coupled with Mengyao’s temper, how could she find a good man? So we worried," Xu Dalong said seriously. "The path laid before Mengyao seemed only to be through marriage alliance, but such a marriage would surely be filled with flaws, with minimal happiness possible. And with Mengyao having high standards, wouldn’t she be destined to be an old maid forever?"
"Uncle." Mengyao was unhappy.
Xu Dalong grimaced and shut his mouth, feeling that saying such things about Mengyao was rather inappropriate.
"It’s a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue," Xu Dalong laughed awkwardly, then seriously said, "Seeing you, I understand now. Mengyao’s major life issues are settled. In the future, I’ll be entrusting my Mengyao to you."
