When Ling Xuan came back from get off work, he saw Aunt Yang and went up to greet her.

Yang Jinping had known Ling Xuan for a long time and was aware of his relationship with her youngest son's family. However, she felt that it was inappropriate for such a handsome, promising, young, and single man from a prominent family to live in her home.

Privately, Yang Jinping pulled her youngest son aside and whispered, "Shaozhong, has Ling Xuan always lived in your house? Doesn't he have his own place to live?"

Li Shaozhong said: "Before, his residence was not cleaned up yet, so he lived at home. Later, Xiao Ning and I felt that he was lonely living alone, and there was no one to take care of his life, so we let him live at home.

We have a large family and a nanny, so it's more convenient for him to live here."

Yang Jinping whispered disapprovingly, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for a young man like him to live at home? He's only a year or two younger than Xiao Ning, right? He's so handsome, and he comes from a very good family. You should be careful."

Li Shaozhong immediately understood what his mother meant and said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Mom, what are you thinking? Ling Xuan is Xiao Ning's younger brother. My father-in-law and Xiao Ning saved Ling Xuan, and they have always treated him as brother and sister. Mom, please don't say anything nonsense. How are we going to get along then?"

Yang Jinping said, "I'm just reminding you. Xiao Ning's current status is extraordinary, and there must be many people coveting her. I'm just worried that others might have inappropriate thoughts. You have to be more careful and protect your wife yourself."

Li Shaozhong smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry about it. Xiao Ning and I have a very strong relationship. No one can break it up. Besides, we have three children."

The house in Jiangdong is almost finished, and Ling Xuan also has a house there. When we move there, he should have his own house. You can rest assured."

Yang Jinping felt relieved after hearing what her youngest son said.

On the third day after Yang Jinping arrived in Haizhou, Qin Zongye came to Haizhou from Shenzhou to visit Ye Shuning's home and discuss some things.

Yang Jinping also knew Qin Zongye. She had always felt that Qin Zongye had ulterior motives towards her daughter-in-law.

The men around her daughter-in-law are all better than each other, and they are all young and handsome guys. She feels that her youngest son is under a lot of pressure.

However, she felt relieved when she heard that Qin Zongye was already married.

Seeing her daughter-in-law bring someone into the study to discuss work, she felt a little uncomfortable. She quickly called her youngest son and asked him to come back soon. It would be better for her youngest son to be present when Qin Zongye came.

Li Shaozhong knew from listening to his mother's words on the phone that she was worried. He put down the phone, shook his head, and hurried home. He didn't want his mother to do anything that would affect their relationship.

Qin Zongye came to discuss with Ye Shuning about participating in international fashion shows. Although the garment factory already had its own design team, Qin Zongye still had to listen to Ye Shuning's opinions and let her design some clothes when participating in international fashion shows every year.

Although Ye Shuning has been busy with more and more work in the past two years, she has not given up her attention to the garment factory. Now is the time when the garment industry is developing rapidly, and the domestic garment industry is booming and is a very profitable industry.

Ye Shuning was still counting on the garment factory to make more money for them. Furthermore, if they wanted to build their own brand and enter the international market, they needed to have a precise grasp of trends. Therefore, Ye Shuning had always been very concerned about the work of the garment factory, and would often discuss matters with Qin Zongye about the garment factory, so that Qin Zongye could grasp the right direction.

This year, their garment factory had already started preparing for the international fashion show, and Ye Shuning had already drawn up some designs. When Qin Zongye came to discuss this matter, she took out all the designs.

Qin Zongye took Ye Shuning's design and looked at it, his eyes lighting up. "Your design is still more eye-catching. It seems that fashion design really requires talent. You have so much work to do, but you still find time to design such beautiful clothes. If you focus on developing in the fashion industry, you will definitely become an internationally renowned fashion designer."

Ye Shuning waved her hand and smiled, "You know I'm not interested in this. My ideal is to do research in the laboratory and develop more new things and technologies. Show these designs to my cousin and the others. They might give them some inspiration."

Qin Zongye said, "I think your designs can be directly exhibited in fashion shows."

The two of them were chatting happily in the study. Yang Jinping was worried and walked into the study under the pretext of bringing them some fruit.

When Ye Shuning saw her mother-in-law personally bringing them some fruit, she quickly stood up from the sofa and said, "Mom, don't worry about it. We have tea here."

Qin Zongye also stood up and said, "Yes, Auntie, we can just talk about work with tea, don't bother."

Yang Jinping said, "It's not a big deal. I think the fruit is quite fresh, so I cut some for you. Don't just talk about work, eat some fruit."

As she said this, she placed the plate of fruit on the coffee table in the study, then looked around the study inconspicuously and left without staying for long.

Ye Shuning's senses were very sensitive. She frowned slightly at her mother-in-law's actions, feeling a little uncomfortable. What was her mother-in-law guarding against? Was she worried about her?

But she didn't show anything and continued to talk about work with Qin Zongye.

Soon, Yang Jinping was relieved to see her youngest son return. She pulled him aside and whispered, "Qin Zongye and Xiao Ning are discussing work in the study. Go check on them."

Li Shaozhong felt somewhat helpless about his mother's behavior. "Mom, please don't be like this, okay? You even called me back here on purpose. It would be terrible if Xiao Ning knew about this. Please don't do this again. Just spend more time with your grandchildren here and don't interfere with anything else."

Li Shaozhong thought it would be better for his mother to return to Kyoto as soon as possible, as it would be bad if conflicts arose between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law over time.

Yang Jinping was displeased when she heard her son say that. "I'm doing this for your own good."

While doing her work, Wu Xiulan also noticed Yang Jinping's behavior. She treated Ye Shuning as her own child, so she was a little dissatisfied with Yang Jinping's behavior.

When she returned to her room, she told Cui Zhonghe, "Xiao Ning's mother-in-law is a bit too nosy. She seemed very worried when Xiao Ning was discussing work with Qin Zongye in the study. Not only did she keep staring at the study, she also called Shao Zhong back. She doesn't trust Xiao Ning."

Cui Zhonghe frowned upon hearing this. "Don't worry about it for now. She won't be staying here long and will probably go back to Kyoto. If she finds fault with Xiao Ning, let's talk to Shao Zhong and have him talk to her mother. We won't get involved directly to avoid embarrassing Xiao Ning."

Wu Xiulan said, "If she dares to bully Xiao Ning by relying on her status as an elder, I won't do anything about it."

The couple were hired by Ye Xingguo to take care of Xiao Ning's life. They also treated Xiao Ning as their own child, and of course they could not bear to see others bullying their child.

Not even the mother-in-law.
