Ye Shuning was delighted to learn of Li Jiawen's decision. She felt that Li Jiawen's arrival at Fengda was undoubtedly a valuable addition to the company. This was a significant boost for Fengda Garment Factory. She could gradually hand over the design responsibilities to Li Jiawen.

After Yan Xiheng returned home, he told his family about his intention to marry Li Jiawen. The elders of the Yan family were overjoyed, as they had finally seen one of the younger generation of the Yan family get married. Old Mrs. Ye was even more eager to have a great-grandson soon.

The Yan and Li families were also busy preparing for the wedding of Yan Xiheng and Li Jiawen. Li Jiawen also became the bride-to-be.

The news of Yan Xiheng and Li Jiawen's upcoming marriage has filled Nangang's wealthy daughters with envy and jealousy. Yan Xiheng was a rare and desirable husband in Nangang, but now he has been taken away by Li Jiawen.

When Ye Shuning received the news that her cousin was getting married, she was happy for them and promised to attend their wedding.

As the Yan family prepared for the wedding, Yan Xiheng still spent most of his time in mainland China. Because his work there was so busy, he had no choice but to travel back and forth.

In the evening, Yan Xiheng came to his cousin's house for dinner. Qin Zongye and Ling Xuan also came. After dinner, everyone had something to discuss.

At the dinner table, Li Shaoting looked across at Qin Zongye and said, "Ah Heng is getting married in two months. Hasn't Ah Ye found anyone to marry yet?"

When asked about marriage, Qin Zongye didn't know how to answer.

Ling Xuan said from the side: "Yeah, Second Brother Qin, Big Brother Yan is about to get married, why haven't you made any moves yet? Didn't you say you were already dating someone?"

Qin Zongye was silent for a moment before perfunctorily saying, "I guess it will be soon."

Qin Zongye had never introduced his girlfriend to anyone, so they all thought it was not going to work out. But it turned out that they were about to get married, and everyone was a little surprised.

Ye Shuning put some food into the children's bowls and looked up and said, "Second Brother Qin is really good at keeping a secret. He hides his girlfriend so well. Bring her over someday so we can all see her."

Qin Zongye heard this and said, "She comes from a humble family. I'm afraid she'll spoil everyone's fun."

Yan Xiheng frowned and said, "Is that the daughter of a supplier of your factory that you mentioned last time? Would your parents agree to you marrying a girl from such a family?"

Qin Zongye smiled and said, "I no longer want to compete with my eldest brother for the position of head of the Qin family, so it doesn't matter what kind of girl I marry, as long as she is obedient."

Ye Shuning frowned after hearing this, but she didn't say anything because it was difficult for her to say anything given her position.

Li Shaoting said, "Since you don't need an arranged marriage, why don't you find someone you like? What if you're unhappy in the future if you're so casual?"

Qin Zongye glanced up at Ye Shuning quickly, then lowered his eyelids. He could never get the person he liked, so it didn't matter who he married. It would be best if he married an obedient wife who wouldn't interfere no matter what.

Ye Shuning was wiping the child's mouth and did not notice Qin Zongye's gaze.

But the other men present all felt it.

Li Shaoting knew at a glance that Qin Zongye still liked Ye Shuning, and his heart sank.

Yan Xiheng also guessed Qin Zongye's thoughts and quickly changed the subject, "You all have to go to my wedding. I'll give you the invitations in a few days."

Ye Shuning asked, "Has my cousin's wife's wedding dress been custom-made? If not, I'll design one for her. I'll have the craftsmen at Fengda make it for you as a wedding gift."

Yan Xiheng was overjoyed when he heard this. "That's great! Jiawen will be so happy that you can design her wedding dress yourself. She's still worried about the dress. I'll call her later."

Everyone started talking about Yan Xiheng's wedding, diverting the topic from Qin Zongye's girlfriend, which also made Qin Zongye feel relieved.

After dinner, several people discussed Ye Shuning's trip to Haizhou in the living room.

Li Jingyu was very upset when he learned that his aunt and several younger brothers and sisters were going to Haizhou, and he couldn't go with them because he had to go to school.

Ye Shuning also noticed her nephew's bad mood. She put her arm around Li Jingyu's shoulders and said, "Auntie will only be gone for a while and will be back soon. Besides, you can come visit us when you have a holiday. The house over there is also very beautiful. You can also go to Haizhou to have some fun."

Ling Xuan said: "Uncle Ling will take you to eat Haizhou's delicacies when the time comes."

Li Shaoting said, "Jingyu is grown up now, Xiaoning, you don't have to worry about him. I'll take care of him."

Ye Shuning said, "This time, Sister Liu will go to Haizhou with me, and Sister Li will stay at home."

Li Shaoting nodded and said, "Let Hanwu and Zhiqiang go with you to Haizhou, and Lianhui can stay here. Be careful when you go there."

Ye Shuning nodded. "Don't worry, big brother. My dad introduced two people to us over there. We have enough manpower. I'll just let you take care of things at home."

Li Shaoting said, "Don't worry about home. You should also try to come back as soon as possible."

Li Shaoting felt a little reluctant to see so many people leave suddenly.

Ye Shuning turned to look at Ling Xuan and said, "Ah Xuan, please come with me this time and help me manage the glass factory. I'll have to trouble Ah Xuan with the glass factory's affairs in the future."

Of course Ling Xuan was willing to stay with Sister Xiao Ning, and he also wanted to help Sister Xiao Ning, "Don't worry, Sister Xiao Ning, I will study hard."

Yan Xiheng said, "It would be best if Xuan goes with you. The children are still too young, so you should take care of them more."

Ye Shuning took the opportunity to say, "From now on, my main job will be in the laboratory, and all management work will have to be done by you. Brother Zhong and I will mainly focus on research, and the management work will gradually be handed over to you."

Yan Xiheng said, "Many people can handle management work, but not everyone can develop this advanced technology. You and Shaozhong are born to be scientific researchers. You're still so young, but what you've come up with has already surpassed many veteran experts. You have no idea how much attention you've attracted."

Qin Zongye was also somewhat worried about this and said, "Precisely because so many people are paying attention, it's inevitable that some will become greedy. The materials and technologies you've researched represent enormous wealth, so you must pay attention to safety. Don't let carelessness lead to others taking advantage of you and causing you to lose more than you gain. The children are especially young, so they need to be extra careful."

Li Shaoting also took this very seriously. "Aye is right. Now that the country has opened up, there are more people coming in. It's inevitable that there will be some with bad intentions. We should really be careful. Xiaoning, you must bring someone to protect you when you go out, and you must also leave bodyguards at home."
