It was very dark today, and it seemed that a heavy rain was coming. The caravan ended its journey early, and many rooms in the inn were booked out at once.
After putting the things needed for sleeping at night in the room, Yan Cheng looked around the room. This inn was quite large. The upper room was not very large but it was clean and tidy, better than any other inn he had stayed in along the way.
Perhaps it is because this place is closer to the capital, the city has a larger population, and as a transportation hub, the economy is developed, the business is prosperous, and the inns are better built than elsewhere.
Yan Cheng walked around the room and was thinking about whether to go to bed early when he heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw it was Yan Zhuo.
"Brother is here, come in and sit down. Lu Xia is going to order the inn's signature dishes. We'll be able to have a hot meal in a while."
"I knew you were tired of the dry food on the road."
Yan Zhuo walked into the room and saw the man in black with a strong presence. He was sitting there steadily, drinking tea of unknown flavor.
She pursed her lips, knowing that he played an important role beside Yan Cheng and that Yan Cheng valued him very much, but she still felt uncomfortable with his coldness.
——This man is too cold. He rarely says a word and is like an ice cube. I don’t know how Cheng’er tolerates his coldness every day.
Fortunately, Cheng'er is lively by nature and was not infected and turned into an ice cube.
Yan Cheng had no idea that Leng Yan's indifferent attitude had long displeased his elder brother, and he was helpless about Leng Yan's inconsistent attitude.
He had long discovered that Leng Yan would talk much more when he was with him, and would even joke around, which was completely different from the cold and ruthless impression that other people had of him.
Although he was honored to be treated as a special person, he was not Leng Yan's only one.
He had gently advised Leng Yan not to be so cold to others, but Leng Yan disagreed and even said, "They are not my relatives, why should I have a good relationship with them?"
Yan Cheng was helpless, but Leng Yan was determined, so he could only let him release his cold air indiscriminately, freezing one person after another.
The door was knocked again. It was not the waiter who came to deliver food, but Yan Ling who came uninvited.
"Why is cousin Zhuo also here with cousin Cheng?"
Leng Yan was sitting on Yan Cheng's left, and Yan Zhuo was sitting on his right. Yan Ling looked around and sat down next to Leng Yan. It was quite interesting to take the initiative to sit next to Leng Bingbing.
"Cheng'er is my brother. It's okay for me to come over and sit with him. But what does cousin Ling want to talk to Cheng'er about?"
After spending a few days together, Yan Zhuo realized that their cousin Ling had a lot of grievances against him, so it was not surprising that he pointed the sword at him when he saw Yan Ling come in.
But even a clay man can get angry, and he is not a clay man, so it is impossible for him to allow Yan Ling to bully him. His words and deeds all show how close he is to Yan Cheng.
Yan Zhuo could see that Yan Ling had a good impression of Yan Cheng and would often talk to Yan Cheng. The atmosphere was harmonious when the two of them were together, but Yan Ling would get nervous every time he showed up.
He couldn't remember when he had offended Yan Ling, causing him to be extremely wary of him.

However, no matter how hard he thought, he could never have imagined that the righteous Yan Ling imagined Yan Cheng as a bullied little white rabbit, and him as a big bad wolf bullying the little white rabbit, and he was wholeheartedly driving away the big bad wolf and protecting the little white rabbit.
"Cousin Cheng, can I come to your place for a meal?"
Yan Ling gritted his teeth, knowing that Yan Zhuo was right, and was so angry that his teeth were itching.
Compared to him, Yan Zhuo and his cousin Cheng appear to have a closer relationship. That is why the kind-hearted cousin Cheng goes out of his way to protect Yan Zhuo's reputation.
hateful!
Yan Ling was a simple person, and Yan Cheng felt comfortable with him. He didn't need to think twice before speaking, and agreed immediately: "Of course, no problem."
Then he gave his brother an apologetic look.
——Although I don’t know why Cousin Ling treats my eldest brother so strangely, but Cousin Ling is very nice to him, and it would be unpleasant to refuse him at this time.
Yan Zhuo didn't say anything. Although his cousin Ling was very wary of him, he had no ill intentions. Considering that the other party didn't look very smart, he just endured it.
"Cousin Cheng, you know I like to drink. You mentioned fruit wine last time, so I think we should have some at home..."
"Cousin, you want to drink some fruit wine? That's not difficult. Why not buy it? I'll have someone send you two jars of fruit wine later."
Yan Cheng and Yan Ling were talking when there was a third knock on the door. This time it was finally the waiter's turn to come.
The dishes in the inn were colorful, fragrant and delicious, which showed that there were some skilled chefs in the kitchen of this inn. However, most of the dishes were light in taste, and Yan Cheng had no interest in eating them, but the other three people thought they were good.
After dinner, Leng Yan went outside for a walk, and when he came back he stuffed a bag of fragrant dried meat into Yan Cheng's arms. Yan Cheng was happy now.
After Yan Zhuo and Yan Ling left, Yan Cheng rested his arms on the table, holding his cheeks with both hands as he thought about his arrangements for returning to the capital.
He doesn't have to worry too much about business matters. Over the years, he has had many loyal and capable managers under him, and he is also a business genius. His ability to make money is rare in the world.
Although there was a business genius, Yan Cheng did not hand over all the business to her. Instead, he arranged for several people to manage the business together with her, and he played the checks and balances very well.
With these people around, his business has grown rapidly from initially only being active in Yulin Prefecture to now expanding to all parts of Daxia.
However, Yan Cheng never wanted to become the next richest man in Daxia. Some businesses were under his name, while some businesses had nothing to do with him on the surface.
True and false, real and fake, no one can see what he is like under the mask.
The title of richest man is a bit too conspicuous in this era of supreme imperial power.
There is no need to worry about money. Yan Cheng thought that life in the capital would not change much. It would be nothing more than studying, practicing martial arts, and going out to socialize.
