Xiao Qianqian handed the ginseng she had brought to the shop assistant, gave her a few instructions, and then left the pharmacy with Ye Bosen.

"Let's go, we can't get a free meal here, we'll just have to go home and eat on our own."

He sounded a bit annoyed.

Ye Bosen looked at this quirky little woman with eyes full of doting affection.

In the car, Xiao Qianqian was still driving, and Ye Bosen was in the passenger seat.

"By the way, you can stay home and play with my parents this afternoon. I'm going to a birthday party and I won't be taking you with me. You don't know any of these people, so it won't be awkward."

"good."

Lunch was very lavish, and Xiao's mother kept piling food onto Ye Bosen's plate, which even Xiao Qianqian couldn't stand.

"Mom, you've put too much food on Asen's plate. How is he supposed to eat it?"

It was only then that Xiao's mother noticed her masterpiece; she had packed too much stuff in, and it was all piled up. She felt a little embarrassed.

"It's alright, Auntie, I can finish it." Ye Bosen didn't want to offend the old woman.

After the meal, Xiao Qianqian made an excuse and slipped out.

Ye Bosen chatted with Xiao's mother for a while, and then came to the yard.

At this moment, Xiao Qianqian was standing under an osmanthus tree making a phone call.

"Let me tell you, I've won over my buddy."

"Really? That's wonderful! Thank you, darling."

"Do we even need to thank each other? Just keep up the good work and win over my guy as soon as possible. I really think you'll be my sister-in-law."

"It's a deal. Don't worry, I guarantee I'll win over your brother. You'll be calling me sister-in-law then." The voice on the other end was clearly excited.

...

The two best friends whispered a lot more before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

"Aren't you afraid your brother will find out if you scheme against him like this?"

The sudden sound startled Xiao Qianqian. She looked up and saw that it was Ye Bosen walking over.

"Why are you here? How long have you been here? What did you hear? Why are you walking so quietly?"

A series of questions stumped Ye Bosen.

Xiao Qianqian nervously looked around, but her brother wasn't there. She patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah Sen, you're the best! Remember to keep it a secret, a secret, okay?"

After saying that, he made a zipping motion.

Ye Bosen gave her a reassuring look, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go inside. Oh, by the way, you can play chess with my grandpa and dad this afternoon, otherwise you'll be bored."

"good."

Young Master Ye, who is usually so busy that he never has a moment to spare, never expected to be reduced to such a boring state. He shook his head helplessly.

"Grandpa, Dad, don't you both really enjoy playing chess? Ah Sen likes it too. How about we have him play chess with you this afternoon?"

As soon as Xiao Qianqian entered the living room, she began to make arrangements.

"Ah Sen, you like playing chess too?"

The old man and Mr. Xiao's eyes lit up. They both loved playing chess, but they couldn't find any opponents. When the two of them played together, they felt it wasn't very exciting.

"Occasionally, but not consistently."

"Alright, I've been itching to play for ages. Shall we start a game now?" The old man couldn't wait.

"Okay, Grandpa."

The old man grew to like this young man more and more, feeling that he was not frivolous.

"Old Li, hurry up and get the Go set. I want to play a few games with Asen," the old man quickly instructed.

"Yes, sir, I'll go get it right away." Butler Uncle Li hurriedly went upstairs to get the Go set, and returned shortly after.

"Come, Asen, sit down, sit down quickly."

The old man hurriedly invited Ye Bosen to sit down. The two chose their chess pieces and immediately began playing. Mr. Xiao watched from the side, and Mrs. Xiao poured tea for them.

Seeing that they had some entertainment, Xiao Qianqian hurriedly ran upstairs, put on makeup, changed into a dress, and then left home with the young man.

Xiao Qianqian and her boyfriend attracted a lot of attention when they arrived at the banquet.

Xiao Qianqian was immune to these stares. She looked around and finally found the birthday person.

"Shanshan, Shanshan." Xiao Qianqian waved to her best friend.

Zhang Shanshan was talking to other guests when she saw them come in. She quickly went over and blushed slightly when she saw the young man next to her best friend. She also became a little shy.

"Qianqian, you're here!"

"Well, here's a birthday present. Happy birthday!"

"Thank you," the two best friends hugged each other warmly.

"Happy birthday, little snotty!" The young man smiled and handed over a gift. He never expected that the little snotty who used to follow him around since she was a child would grow up to be such a beautiful young lady. Especially today, she was wearing a beautiful bright red dress, with her long hair slightly curled, making her look even more charming.

Zhang Shanshan accepted the gift and said shyly, "Thank you, sir."

Then, she pulled Xiao Qianqian aside and whispered, "What should I do, Qianqian? I'm a little nervous."

Xiao Qianqian hugged her and said, "Keep going, I'm here to support you." Then she made a cheering gesture.

The banquet began, and everyone took their seats. Xiao Qianqian deliberately arranged for Xiao Ge and Shan Shan to sit together. After a few rounds of drinks, Xiao Qianqian signaled to Zhang Shan Shan to find an opportunity to confess her feelings.

Zhang Shanshan mustered her courage and confessed her feelings to the young man. The young man was stunned; this was completely unexpected.

After hearing Zhang Shanshan's confession, the young man looked surprised, but quickly regained his composure.

He smiled and said to Zhang Shanshan, "Snotty, I've always thought of you as a little sister. I never expected you to think this way. But you're a very outstanding girl, and I believe you will find true happiness."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Zhang Shanshan's eyes, but she still forced a smile and nodded.

At this moment, Xiao Qianqian came over, took Zhang Shanshan's hand, and quietly comforted her, "It's okay, Shanshan, it's just one failure."

After saying that, she winked at the young man, signaling him to help take care of Zhang Shanshan.

The young man understood immediately and invited Zhang Shanshan to dance with him, easing the awkward atmosphere.

As the music played softly and the lights flickered, Zhang Shanshan's mood gradually improved. She decided to persevere and continue pursuing the young man; she refused to believe she couldn't win him over.

Sitting in her seat, Xiao Qianqian was a little lost in thought. She started to worry about whether Ye Bosen at home was bored, whether he was still playing chess with his grandfather and father, and whether they were getting along well. She felt like she had become a worrying nanny, always a little concerned about Ye Bosen. What was going on?
