Yan Han responded with an "Mmm," put down his teacup, and turned to look at Zhu Qianying, as if waiting for her to continue.
After waiting for a while and seeing that Zhu Qianying did not move, he asked again.
"So, why did you meet with Ke Kai as soon as you got back?"
Zhu Qianying then realized that he still harbored resentment about her meeting with Ke Kai as soon as she returned from R City.
"Xiaoyu is pregnant, just one month along, but the film was originally scheduled to start shooting next month. Everyone is worried that her body won't be able to withstand that kind of physical exertion."
Upon hearing Zhu Qianying's words, the frost on Yan Han's face visibly began to melt away.
"So, you asked Ke Kai about this?"
Zhu Qianying nodded obediently, "Yes, that's why!"
This was the main matter, of course; secondly, it was also a chance to catch up. However, seeing how much Uncle Yan cared, Zhu Qianying decided not to bring it up again.
Ke Kai gave her a grateful look, then stood up and poured her a cup of tea.
“Shadow, you could have just mentioned it over the phone. There’s no need to invite me to dinner.”
Ultimately, this finance company is also Young Master Yan's business, and the money invested is also Young Master Yan's money. It's no small matter that Young Master Yan's sister-in-law is pregnant and filming has to be postponed.
"So, there's no problem?"
For Zhu Qianying, this was no small matter.
She didn't even want to go through Young Master Yan to make this happen.
Of course, she knew it was impossible.
But that's my own sister. I owe Young Master Yan a favor because of my sister and future nephew. There's nothing I can do about it.
However, the favors owed are piling up, and how will they be repaid in the future?
A vague sense of worry arose in Zhu Qianying's heart.
"Shadow, stop making things difficult for me! I'm sitting right here. If I say there's a problem, this head will be snapped in two..."
Ke Kai raised his hand and made a throat-slitting gesture, then quickly refilled Yan Han's teacup.
"Sir, please give me a word in response to Shadow! Do you really want me to kneel down and kowtow to you?"
These words sounded like they were being addressed to Young Master Yan. But how could Zhu Qianying not understand that they were telling her to speak to Young Master Yan herself?
Indeed, this is a difficult situation for Ke Kai.
After all, the company belongs to Young Master Yan, and the money belongs to Young Master Yan. Even though Ke Kai is the general manager, in the end, Young Master Yan can change Ke Kai's decision with just a cough.
Young Master Yan picked up the tea that Ke Kai had just poured for him, glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and said indifferently.
"Then kneel! Kneel!"
Zhu Qianying hadn't actually seen much of Young Master Yan and Ke Kai interact, and upon hearing this, she almost knelt down in shock!
Afraid of causing Ke Kai any more trouble, Zhu Qianying quickly and obsequiously reached her paws onto Young Master Yan's shoulder, gently pressing and kneading his shoulder blade with just the right amount of pressure.
Her movement was so abrupt that Young Master Yan trembled slightly, and some of the tea in his hand spilled out.
"Young Master Yan, don't let Xiaoyu's strong appearance fool you; she's actually quite frail."
After successfully drawing Young Master Yan's attention, Zhu Qianying continued.
"Some men think that pregnancy and childbirth are just like eating, sleeping, or even farting—normal physiological processes, nothing to worry about. But that's not the case, especially in the first few months of pregnancy, when extra caution is needed!"
Yan Shao stared at her, then unexpectedly interjected, "And you back then?"
Zhu Qianying was taken aback. Why did this man always interrupt?
We were talking about Xiaoyu, how did we get dragged into this?
“Me too. In the beginning, I was extremely careful. My mom practically followed me to work. But directing is a completely different job from mine. You have to do everything yourself. Not only is the workload heavy, but the environment is also harsh…”
Zhu Qianying was unwilling to talk much about what happened when she was pregnant with Zizai, but Young Master Yan was clearly more willing to listen to her talk about her and Zizai than about Xiaoyu.
"Alright, let's put the film on hold. Ke Kai, you talk to the production team and see when Xiao Yu can return to work, then we'll start filming."
Zhu Qianying had only spoken a little bit when Young Master Yan interrupted her and gave her a positive answer.
After giving instructions to Ke Kai, Young Master Yan raised the wrist closest to Zhu Qianying and offered it to her, saying, "My wrist is a little sore here..."
Zhu Qianying glanced down and instantly understood. She quickly moved her claws down from his shoulder and pinched his wrist.
"Back then, did Zizai really not cause much trouble?"
Zhu Qianying only mentioned this matter briefly when she first met Madam Yan, but she also glossed over it as lightly as she had just mentioned it.
Five years ago, Young Master Yan would probably have believed it.
But now, he doesn't quite believe it anymore.
"Yes, he dotes on me!"
Zhu Qianying lowered her head, carefully supporting his wrist with one hand and gently massaging it with the other.
Over there, Qin Xiu and Ke Kai, who had been completely ignored, were almost blinded by the couple's display of affection!
"That's my son, of course I'll care for him!"
Young Master Yan said something with a touch of pride, which drew silent glares and grumbling from the three of them.
Although Young Master Yan said this, he still didn't believe Zhu Qianying's words in his heart. He secretly made a note of it, thinking of asking his mother-in-law Chen Jing about it later.
Of course, he actually had other ways to find out how hard she had worked back then, namely, to let history repeat itself once or twice, or to have another Yan 200 million or Yan 300 million!
However, at this stage, it is somewhat difficult to implement!
Based on what happened that night when things almost escalated into a violent confrontation, Young Master Yan made this judgment.
"Sir, you two are so in love that you can live on water alone, but Ke Kai and I are not. Can we order first?"
Qin Xiu, who was almost blinded by the light, finally couldn't help but protest.
Young Master Yan raised his free hand and waved it, "You and Kai go to the seafood stall and see what's fresh!"
Now that the master has spoken, the two of them immediately scurried out!
If you don't leave now, there are only two possible outcomes.
First, I'm utterly despised by my grandfather!
Secondly, it's so sweet it'll kill you!
"Hey Kai, how about we just book a room next door?"
As soon as Qin Xiu stepped outside, he touched his hands and felt the goosebumps that covered his arm.
Ke Kai deeply agreed, "But wouldn't that be awkward for the shadow..."
Ke Kai thought his master was being too stingy. It was just a dinner invitation for his wife, why did he have to be so protective?
Little did he know that since returning from the United States, Zhu Qianying hadn't even made a single phone call to Young Master Yan, let alone asked him out for a meal.
Young Master Yan felt extremely resentful, but he put on airs and refused to call Zhu Qianying.
But as soon as he got off the plane, he heard that she had made an appointment with Ke Kai for dinner. How could Young Master Yan remain calm? How could he not feel disgusted?
