"Hey, a pretty handsome young man came here and bought a horse-drawn carriage. He's also here to learn to ride a horse. I guess his girlfriend is romantic, and he wants to surprise her."
"Oh dear, no wonder, this isn't the money for renting a car."
When Yue Lanxing arrived at Boss Wang's house again, the party was still going on inside. He waited outside for a while and then saw Xiao Nan come out. He immediately got out of the car and went over to her.
"Where is the young lady?" Yue Lanxing asked.
Xiao Nan was immediately relieved when she saw him. "He's still inside. He's already finished eating the cake. It's good that you're back. I'll go tell Miss right now that you don't need to go in."
"Okay, go ahead." Yue Lanxing got back into the car.
Xiao Nan re-entered the banquet and told Xu Zhaoyue that Yue Lanxing had returned. "Butler Yue is back." Xu Zhaoyue nodded to indicate that she had heard.
Xu Zhaoyue found Boss Wang to say goodbye, "Boss Wang, I'll be leaving now. Let's talk again another time."
"Oh, is it Brother Yue who's back? Why don't you come in and have a piece of cake?" Boss Wang saw her about to leave and knew that Yue Lanxing had come back to pick her up.
"No need to let him in. Once Wang Ziqi sees him, he won't be able to leave," Xu Zhaoyue said with a smile.
Mr. Wang agreed with her statement, "That's right. When he went up to open the gifts, the first one he opened was the toy you gave him, a toy car. He loves it so much."
"I'm glad you like it. Next time, bring the kids along. I'll be going now." Xu Zhaoyue said goodbye and then left with Xiao Nan.
"Boss Wang came looking for you before cutting the cake, but since you weren't there, Yan Qi and I went up instead," Xu Zhaoyue told Yue Lanxing after getting into the car.
"Really? Did Miss eat cake? I saw a shop on my way back and bought some pastries. I wonder if Miss would like some more?" Yue Lanxing picked up a box from the passenger seat and showed it to them.
Xu Zhaoyue was surprised that he had even bought desserts. "I ate a small piece, but I can still eat some."
"By the way, Miss, I need to tell you first that I have some things to take care of in the next couple of days, so I'd like to ask for two days off." Yue Lanxing naturally asked for leave.
Xu Zhaoyue had no objection to taking a vacation, so she naturally agreed, "Okay, go ahead and get busy."
They returned to the villa, and Xu Zhaoyue opened the box and ate some snacks with Xiaonan. "Miss, is he going to the Yue family? The Yue family's acquisitions have been so aggressive lately." As Xiaonan ate, she remembered the news in the newspaper.
"I saw it too. You could say they're incredibly wealthy and powerful. To come all the way from Beijing to Shanghai and pull off such a massive undertaking, their boldness is truly remarkable," Xu Zhaoyue said enviously.
"That's too domineering. I never expected the Yue family to do business this way. I've never heard of such a thing before," Xiao Nan said, shaking her head.
Xu Zhaoyue had never learned about large companies outside of Shanghai before, but she had never heard of the Yue family's notorious reputation either. "Maybe the Yue family is already powerful enough in Beijing, so they've become mild-mannered."
“Actually, he’s not humble at all deep down. He’ll seize any opportunity to make sweeping changes. He’s worth learning from.” Xu Zhaoyue genuinely hoped she could learn something from him.
Yue Lanxing naturally couldn't hear their conversation, and the next day he went to the carriage shop to learn to ride a horse.
Because of his martial arts background, Yue Lanxing was able to master horseback riding in just one day, and the carriage and horses were transported to the Xu family mansion that same day.
The gatekeeper saw the large truck approaching and quickly sent two men to negotiate. Upon closer inspection, they discovered that the first car belonged to Butler Yue, and they ran over to knock on the window.
Yue Lanxing had already rolled down the window. "It's alright, these are the things I bought. Let them in." The two people who ran over to check the situation saw that even Butler Yue said so, so they let them in after checking the safety.
Xiao Nan heard a commotion outside and wanted to go out to see what was going on. She saw a white carriage parked at the gate, and quite a few people had already come out to look. "Hey, whose is this?"
"Sister Xiaonan, this is for the young lady." Yue Lanxing had just seen the car dealership staff off and came back to explain to Xiaonan, "It's not convenient to talk like this, let's go inside and talk."
The two entered the villa and casually went into a reception room. "Did you arrange that carriage outside? Didn't you take leave? Didn't you go home?" Xiao Nan asked.
"I took leave because of that carriage outside. When I was picking out a gift for Prince Qi, I saw that Miss really liked that toy car, so I thought I'd buy one for her too."
“We have so many cars at home, but no carriage, so I wanted to give Miss a surprise,” Yue Lanxing said.
Xiao Nan was truly shocked. "How much does this cost... Never mind, it seems you put a lot of thought into it." She wanted to ask how much the surprise would cost, but then she remembered that money wasn't an issue for Yue Lanxing right now, so she swallowed her question.
"So you're planning to leave it outside?" Xiao Nan pointed to the outside of the door.
Yue Lanxing wanted to ask Xiao Nan for help, "No, I want to put it in the woods. When Miss comes back, I'll trouble Sister Xiao Nan to find a reason for Miss to go to the woods. I'll wait in there first."
Xiao Nan saw that his plan was quite good and was willing to help. "Okay, I'll help you. I'll go out now and tell them not to tell anyone. You hurry up and bring the carriage inside."
"Okay." Yue Lanxing and Xiao Nan went their separate ways, and Xu Zhaoyue did not notice anything unusual after returning home.
After Xiao Nan saw that her mistress had finished eating, she began to deliver her lines, "Miss, Qingying caught a rabbit in the woods today. It's really cute. Would you like to go and see it?"
