After leaving Yanhuang Group, Song Zhicheng and Zhu Haoming had dark faces. Zhu Haoming knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare to offend his father-in-law.
Back at the Song family's residence, the two went to their respective offices.
Song Zhicheng had just sat down when the phone rang.
He took it out, glanced at it, and then accepted the call.
"Junwei, Yan Han is not someone to be trifled with!"
...
On Tuesday, Zhu Qianying flew from L City to another city to meet up with Cheng Ye.
While her daughter and grandson were on vacation at the beach, Chen Jing, accompanied by the Yan family's bodyguards, went to R City to spend two days with Xiao Yu.
When her in-law, Letong, heard that her private restaurant was about to open, she introduced a friend to Chen Jing, saying that Chen Jing should learn from her experience.
Letong's friend is named Luo Yifan, who owns a chain of restaurants across the country.
Chen Jing and this nationally renowned restaurant owner hit it off immediately, and Chen Jing learned a lot of business tips from him.
So, after returning from R City, Chen Jing began to personally arrange some specific matters for the opening of the shop.
Yan Shao received a call from Ji Huan, who said he needed his help with something.
Yan Shao wondered what could have made Young Master Ji take it so seriously.
When Yan Shao opened the email, he found it contained a plan for promotional methods and sales strategies for the opening of his mother-in-law's "Quiet Private Kitchen".
"Ji Huan, did you make these for Mom?"
"Brother Yan, Mom made this herself! She asked me to take a look, give her some advice, and help her arrange the publicity. But you know, I'm with Xiaoyu every day now, how could I dare to leave her and run off to L City?"
As expected, the second young master of the Ji family still loves to play pranks. Even though he was helping Young Master Yan, he had to show off his affection in front of Young Master Yan to provoke him.
"Then I thought about it, and you're also Mom's son-in-law, so there's nothing wrong with you doing this."
Yan Shao understood that Ji Huan was helping him. "Okay, take good care of Xiao Yu. I'll take care of things at Mom's shop."
Since Ji Huan gave him the opportunity to shine, he certainly couldn't let it go to waste.
So, after hanging up the phone, Yan Shao carefully read through the proposal that Ji Huan had sent him. After thinking for a moment, he picked up his bag and got up.
When he went out, he met Qin Xiu, who looked surprised. "Master, you don't have any plans to go out today."
Yan Shao nodded, "I know. I won't be here this afternoon. Call me if you need anything."
Qin Xiu watched his boss rush away and wondered to himself, "Could it be that I'm going on a date with my shadow?"
Judging from his expression, it really does look like him!
Yan Shao's sudden appearance at Jingjing's Private Kitchen startled Chen Jing.
She quickly brought out a bowl of freshly made dessert and placed it on the table behind him.
"Young Master Yan, what brings you here? Are you passing by on your way?"
Chen Jing is no longer as afraid of Yan Shao as before. Even if she can't get a word in edgewise when it comes to serious matters, she can still handle casual conversation.
"Mom, I came to see if there's anything I can help you with."
Yesterday, Yan Shao had heard his mother mention that his mother-in-law had already chosen a date to open the shop. He was just thinking of calling his mother-in-law when he had some free time to ask if she needed any help when he received a call from Ji Huan.
However, it is clear that although they are both sons-in-law, Chen Jing's attitude towards Ji Huan and Yan Shao is completely different.
"That's all. Things are mostly arranged, and we're just waiting to open for business!"
Chen Jing didn't mention a word about that plan.
Yan Shao felt a little sad, but there was nothing he could do.
"Mom, aren't you going to do any advertising for the opening?"
Of course, Yan Shao couldn't say that Ji Huan had sent him her plan; he wouldn't betray his brother like that.
Moreover, he also hoped that Ji Huan would speak well of him in the future, so that his score in front of his mother-in-law and wife would gradually improve.
Chen Jing hesitated for a moment, but didn't think much of it. Seeing Yan Shao enjoying the dessert she had placed on the table, she somehow found herself mentioning her thoughts to him, even though she hadn't originally planned to.
Yan Shao pretended not to know anything, listened quietly to Chen Jing's words, thought for a moment, and then cautiously spoke.
"Mom, your idea is fantastic. Let's do it your way. I think it's perfectly fine."
Chen Jing was overjoyed. After all, receiving affirmation and praise from someone as capable as Yan Shao, even if there was some flattery involved, was still a source of great happiness and excitement.
"Really? I was worried that my ideas were unrealistic!"
"No, I think it's great. Have you found a publicity company yet? Our company has quite a few similar partners. How about I take over this?"
Chen Jing was even more surprised now.
"Young Master Yan, how could I possibly accept this?"
As expected, Yan Shao and Ji Huan held different positions in Chen Jing's heart.
Ji Huan is my son-in-law, one of our own, and a junior. There's nothing wrong with asking him for help.
Although Yan Shao is legally her son-in-law, she knows in her heart that these two sons-in-law are not the same.
And she never considered him one of her own.
Even if you treat a rich young master like one of your own, you still need to be careful about your own worth, right?
"What's there to be embarrassed about, Mom? You're the head chef. These next few days, you should focus on preparing the dishes for the opening. Leave all the other chores to me."
Yan Shao practically patted his chest and guaranteed that he would complete the mission flawlessly.
Chen Jing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young Master Yan, could you watch the shop for me while I go to the kitchen to see if the braising liquid is ready?"
Chen Jing hurriedly went back to the kitchen, closed the door, took out her phone, and dialed a number.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
It turned out that she was calling her eldest daughter, Zhu Qianying, who was away on a business trip.
For her, it was the best thing that Young Master Yan was willing to take care of those miscellaneous tasks. After all, in L City, no one could get things done more conveniently and quickly than Young Master Yan.
But she didn't want to cause any more trouble for her eldest daughter.
It's certainly a good thing that Young Master Yan is willing to help, but in the end, won't it be my daughter who has to repay the favor?
Chen Jing then explained the whole story. Zhu Qianying, on the other end of the phone, remained silent for a while before replying.
"Mom, since Young Master Yan has spoken, let him handle those matters. Xiaoyu has a bit of a cold recently, and Ji Huan is busy taking care of her. You shouldn't trouble him with these things."
Chen Jing was increasingly surprised, wondering if something had happened between her daughter and Young Master Yan during her trip to R City. Could it be that the two of them had become lovers?
“Ying’er, that’s true, but given the current situation between you and Young Master Yan, if I ask him for help, wouldn’t you be the one to repay that favor?”
