"oh?"

Jin Xiangyu's radar went off instantly, her eyes lit up, and she grabbed her daughter: "You mean...Siqing?"

Ye Nian'an smiled and nodded.

Jin Xiangyu's face lit up with joy, and she nodded repeatedly: "I noticed it a long time ago! In the past few years, Siqing and Ayao have gotten along better and better, and the way Ayao looks at her is different now!"

"Siqing is a steady, capable, and well-educated girl. She came with us during the most difficult time of our exile. I like her from the bottom of my heart! If she could become my eldest daughter-in-law, it would be a great blessing for our Ye family!"

The more she thought about it, the happier she became, as if she could already see the grand scene of her two sons getting married together.

"Oh no, no, I have to get this matter with Asheng sorted out quickly, and then find a suitable opportunity to sound out Ayao and Siqing! If only good things could happen in pairs this year..."

Jin Xiangyu rubbed her hands excitedly, her face full of anticipation: "I'll be laughing in my sleep!"

Ye Sheng listened from the side, feeling secretly pleased.

He knew that with the full support of his family, the day he won the heart of his beloved was not far off.

The most important thing right now is how to win over his strict, old-fashioned future father-in-law, who is also a bit of a "daughter-obsessed" father!

But who is Ye Sheng?

For Shen Shuling, he'd brave any danger, let alone a father-in-law!

The Ye family's "marriage proposal preparation meeting" was in full swing, and it didn't end until late at night, still feeling like it wasn't over yet.

Filled with joy, Ye Nian'an returned to her Chu family compound with light steps.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw that the living room was brightly lit and filled with laughter.

Chu Yan was surrounded by ten energetic children, playing the role of a "big monster," and was being beaten back by the children using soft pillows as "weapons."

DaDa, ErEr, and SanSan acted as commanders, while the seven little ones were the soldiers charging into battle, having a great time.

Meanwhile, Chu Zhenyuan and Chi Xinyao sat on the sofa to the side, watching the lively scene with loving eyes.

"Mommy's back!"

The sharp-eyed Xiao Qi was the first to spot Ye Nian'an. She immediately dropped her "weapon" and pounced over with her short legs.

"Mommy!"

The children immediately shifted their focus and swarmed around them.

Chu Yan, this "big monster," finally had a moment to spare. He stood up from the pile of pillows, dusted himself off, walked over to Ye Nian'an, and naturally took the bag from her hand, his voice filled with laughter.

"Niannian, you look so happy. Have you settled things at home?"

"It's more than just an agreement!"

With a smile, Ye Nian'an announced loudly to everyone in the room, "I have some amazing news to announce! Our family is about to have a happy occasion!"

"My little ones, you'll soon have your third aunt!"

Wow! It really is my third aunt!

"My third uncle is really going to marry Aunt Shuling... no, I mean Aunt Shuling!"

Now, the ten little ones were completely excited, even more so than when they fought the monster. They jumped and danced with joy.

Chu Zhenyuan and Chi Xinyao exchanged a glance, and genuine smiles appeared on their faces.

"Great! This is fantastic news!"

Chu Zhenyuan clapped his hands happily: "Asheng has finally settled down! Shuling is a reliable and steady girl, a good one!"

Chi Xinyao was filled with emotion.

"That's right! I was worried before that he was wild and wouldn't be able to settle down."

Holding Ye Nian'an's hand, Chi Xinyao said with relief, "Now it's all right. With Shuling keeping an eye on him, I can rest assured."

"Our Chu family also needs to take good care of this matter, so that the Shen family doesn't feel that we've neglected them."

To them, Ye Sheng was like their own son.

Now that their son is getting married, they are happier than anyone else.

"Now it all depends on those two kids, Xin'er and Song Yan."

As Chi Xinyao spoke, a hint of anticipation crept in her voice: "If they can settle down soon, our family will have double happiness this year."

The Chu family compound was immersed in this joy all night long.

The ten children were incredibly excited, surrounding Ye Nian'an and Chu Yan, chattering away with questions.

The questions ranged from when the marriage proposal was to when the wedding was, and then to when the children would have a little brother or sister, making the adults laugh.

After finally managing to coax the excited little ones to sleep, Ye Nian'an and Chu Yan finally returned to their own room.

As night deepens and all is quiet, the hustle and bustle of the day fades away.

Ye Nian'an was not sleepy at all. She sat in front of the dressing table, taking apart her hair, and was still making plans with great interest.

“Brother Yan, what do you think? After Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law get engaged, they can go south to make their way in the world. Third Brother is quick-witted and good at handling things, so he can be in charge of running the market and building relationships.”

"Third sister-in-law is meticulous and steady in her work. She's in charge of the accounts and logistics. The two of them are a match made in heaven; they're sure to achieve great things!"

"Once Xin'er convinces Song Yan, she'll go with him. With their combined strength, my goodness, I can't even imagine how big the factory will become!"

In her past life, Chu Xin'er and Shen Shuling alone made them the world's leading female powerhouses.

In this lifetime, let's add another Ye Sheng...

Tsk tsk tsk.

The more Ye Nian'an thought about it, the more perfect the plan seemed, her eyes sparkling with boundless anticipation for the future.

However, after she spoke for a long time, it remained quiet around her.

When she turned around, she found that Chu Yan had been standing behind her at some point, watching her without saying a word.

That look... it had a hint of resentment about it no matter how you looked at it.
