Chapter 496 Call her sister-in-law
The boy's big, bright, and devout eyes were irresistible.
The butler chuckled dryly, "It's alright, Mr. Yan and Miss are having dinner at the restaurant. Please come in, Second Young Master."
"Thank you, Uncle Butler." Just as Yan Siyue was about to enter the house, a servant came over and asked, "Butler, Dr. Lu, a friend of Actor Yan, has come to visit..."
"Brother Lu is here?" Yan Siyue's gaze shifted, and he quickly welcomed Lu Cheng in, taking the opportunity to say, "I heard that my brother and Brother Lu got back together after returning to the country, and I was quite surprised. I didn't expect to run into each other like this..."
Lu Cheng chuckled dryly, "With your brother's temper, the fact that he still has me as a friend is because I'm magnanimous."
Yan Siyue laughed and joked a few times, then changed the subject, "It just so happens that my trip to Europe, besides seeking medical treatment, wasn't entirely fruitless. I gained a special channel for purchasing advanced international medical equipment. I heard that Brother Lu, your hospital is going to change suppliers for medical equipment, so I thought we could cooperate for mutual benefit!"
Yan Qinghe happened to come out, and upon hearing this, he paused in his steps, giving him a lukewarm look. This made Yan Siyue feel guilty. "Brother, what's wrong? Are you upset that I didn't tell you beforehand?"
"I won't interfere in your business matters, just don't drag Lu Cheng into doing unprofitable deals." Yan Qinghe glanced at Lu Cheng indifferently. "Yao Ruo is still eating, I'll go check on her. You sit for a while, and we'll check her health after she finishes eating."
"You prioritize romance over friendship! I've been busy all day and haven't even eaten yet!" Lu Cheng muttered to himself, but he couldn't take it seriously. He turned his head and saw Yan Siyue looking thoughtfully at Yan Qinghe's figure. He patted Yan Siyue's shoulder with a smile and said, "Your worldview has been shattered, hasn't it? Your brother's brain must have been damaged in the car accident. He used to hate Qin Yaoruo so much, but now he's spoiling her twice as much, treating her like the apple of his eye. I can't even bear to look at her."
"No wonder!" Yan Siyue feigned surprise. "Since I came back this time, I feel like my brother is a completely different person."
"Don't worry, no matter how he changes, he still loves you the most, his younger brother. Don't be jealous of Qin Yaoruo..." Lu Cheng joked, putting his arm around him with a grin. "I feel at ease doing business with you. Give me a list of the supply channels later, and I'll have someone take a look. If there are no problems, we'll sign the contract."
Yan Siyue's health had just improved, and he was isolated and helpless after entering the company. It was normal for him to be suppressed, so Yan Qinghe doted on this younger brother even more.
He figured he should help if he could, so Lu Cheng readily agreed without any ulterior motives.
"Thank you, Brother Lu. This deal is done. My dad will definitely look at me in a new light. I'll treat you to a big meal then." Yan Siyue left overjoyed, not forgetting to greet Qin Yaoruo warmly before leaving.
But Yan Qinghe brushed it off lightly, and he only had time to say goodbye to the back of Qin Yaoruo's head.
"Ugh, I'm so suffocated!" Qin Yaoruo struggled to free her head from his embrace, and said indignantly, "If you're sick, go get treated!"
After saying that, she glared angrily at Lu Cheng and ordered fiercely, "Treat him!"
Lu Cheng laughed so hard he almost fell over. "He's just crazy!"
“Yes, I’m sick…” Yan Qinghe shamelessly fed Qin Yaoruo shrimp balls and said softly, “You are the medicine.”
The two were caught off guard and stood so close that they could hear each other's breath. A strong scent of hormones wafted over them, and Qin Yaoruo's heart suddenly started pounding.
"You shameless old scoundrel!" Lu Cheng, still watching the spectacle with his chin propped up, said, "Yao Ruo, beat him up! If you can't beat him, scratch him!"

If all else fails, gouge out his eyes...
Upon hearing this, Qin Yaoruo's face turned completely red. She subconsciously covered Yan Qinghe's eyes and pushed him away. She was in a hurry to speak, but she couldn't bear to spit out the shrimp ball on her tongue. She mumbled something that no one else could understand.
"Yao Ruo is so good!" A dark glint flashed in Yan Qinghe's eyes, but he smiled faintly. "That's right—domestic violence is illegal."
Seeing that his expression was off, Lu Cheng coughed and changed the subject, "Yao Ruo, you..."
"Screw you!" Yan Qinghe suddenly frowned, giving him a cold glance. "Call me sister-in-law!"
Lu Cheng rolled his eyes. "Is it really that big of a deal?!"
"...She's not my sister-in-law," Qin Yaoruo hurriedly explained, "We broke up!"
"Yes, you're my sister-in-law." Yan Qinghe pretended not to hear the second half of her sentence, and smiled as she misinterpreted her meaning, "Yao Ruo, after dinner, let's go find the bad guys to get revenge, just to digest our food, okay?"
Those people have been tortured enough!
The beast, with all its fangs plucked out, had extremely weak willpower and posed no threat to Qin Yaoruo. Perhaps the clever little one could even glean some information from it.
Qin Yaoruo immediately forgot about the previous 'sister-in-law' dispute, hurriedly nodded, and said fiercely, "Go!"
"Your spirit has recovered quite well!" Lu Cheng patted Yan Qinghe's shoulder thoughtfully. "Old beast, you've been taking care of her like a father and mother every day... You deserve a lot of credit."
"You son of a bitch!" Yan Qinghe slapped his hand away in disgust, emphasizing, "Call me sister-in-law!"
Lu Cheng scoffed, things weren't going as he wanted!
Although Qin Yaoruo wasn't as resistant to him as she had been at first, she was still clearly quite averse to him. If he started calling her "sister-in-law" all the time, she would probably be scared away sooner or later!
Unexpectedly, Qin Yaoruo, while biting into a shrimp ball, glanced at the two of them with a conflicted expression, then suddenly tugged at Yan Qinghe's sleeve, just a quick tug.
Seeing him look over, she immediately let go of his hand warily, and stammered, "If you really have nowhere to go... I'll take you in for now!"
"Take you in? Qin Yaoruo, are you going to deal with Yan Qinghe?" Lu Cheng hadn't even understood her stammering words when Yan Qinghe's eyes lit up. "Yaoruo, you promised me you'd live with me?"
Qin Yaoruo hesitated for a while, seemingly very unwilling, her eyes showing some resistance, which made Yan Qinghe very nervous. "Ruoruo?"
"I'm only taking you in temporarily, because you helped me catch those bad guys from back then!" Qin Yaoruo, as if afraid that Yan Qinghe would take advantage of her, puffed out her cheeks and emphasized, "Temporary! He..."
She pointed at Lu Cheng with an air of self-righteousness and declared, "He's the witness!"
Lu Cheng realized what was happening, clutched his stomach, and burst into laughter, "You old beast, you were once the envy of all the beautiful girls in the world... now you've finally met your match!"
In the past, if Lu Cheng had acted so recklessly, he would have been kicked out by Yan Qinghe long ago!
Seeing that he had helped her out today, Yan Qinghe ignored him and looked intently at Qin Yaoruo, saying, "Thank you, Ruoruo, for taking me in."
For some reason, upon hearing the name "Ruoruo," Qin Yaoruo's heart skipped a beat, and those complicated emotions she felt towards Yan Qinghe resurfaced. Without making a sound, she sat down opposite the two of them with her bowl in hand, burying her head and ignoring them.
Yan Qinghe's eyes dimmed for a moment, but he quickly cheered up again. As long as he could be with Qin Yaoruo at all times, he would eventually teach her to willingly agree!
