The driver drove the car to the gate of the residential area, swiped the card, and the gate slowly opened.
It's unclear when it started, but Yan Shao's car has begun to receive the same treatment as the residents in the neighborhood.
Although she understood that Yan Shao must have done something, Zhu Qianying turned a blind eye to it. The reason was that she had promised that Yan Shao and his wife Yan Bo could come to see Zizai anytime they wanted.
Now that she had made that promise, she didn't bother greeting the security guard at the gate anymore.
The car stopped downstairs at the apartment building, and unusually, Young Master Yan accompanied her out of the car.
Zhu Qianying was slightly surprised; Young Master Yan's unusual behavior was becoming more and more frequent.
If she hadn't wanted to avoid him misunderstanding, she almost would have put her hand on his forehead to check if he had a fever.
"Good night, Young Master Yan!"
As Zhu Qianying spoke, she reached out to take the cake he was carrying.
Yan Shao strode towards the stairwell, leaving Zhu Qianying somewhat puzzled. She wondered to herself, "Could he be going to take me to the elevator?"
As it turns out, Zhu Qianying's grumbling was both right and wrong.
Because Yan Shao not only escorted her to the elevator, but also stepped into the elevator with her.
Zhu Qianying was a little speechless, but in the end, she still spoke up.
"Young Master Yan, actually, I can go up by myself."
She did remember that the first time she formally visited the Yan family, the old man was extremely reluctant to take her home. However, even so, halfway there, he abandoned her on the main road because of a trivial matter.
Such a man clearly lacks gentlemanly qualities.
Therefore, Grandpa Yan's current thoughtfulness made Zhu Qianying feel uneasy.
"The security situation has been bad lately!"
The man carried a cake in one hand and had the other hand in his pocket, looking extremely relaxed. At this moment, he had regained his demeanor and appearance as a wealthy young master, completely different from the Yan Shao who had been lying on the grass and made a mess that afternoon.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Zhu Qianying would never have believed that Young Master Yan, who used to always stand in front of others and look down on them with a superior attitude, would lower himself to such a low position for a little kid!
His reasons at this moment were equally unconvincing to Zhu Qianying.
"Young Master Yan, this neighborhood is very safe, don't worry!"
"No matter how good it is, it's just something real estate developers are bragging about."
Zhu Qianying, who had been tense, couldn't help but laugh out loud at his serious expression.
"Young Master Yan, as the largest real estate developer in L City, is it really alright for you to say such a thing?"
Yan Shao thought about it and realized there was indeed a problem. He couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile. "I'm only saying these things to you. You're my wife. You wouldn't be so despicable as to use this to blackmail me, would you?"
Zhu Qianying chuckled and shrugged. "Heh, hard to say!"
Yan Shao smiled, half-jokingly, "Great hero, I have plenty of money, so just name your price, don't be shy!"
The atmosphere between the two of them gradually became relaxed and casual.
Yan Shao escorted Zhu Qianying to the door and handed her the cake.
Zhu Qianying took the cake, said "Goodbye, goodnight!", and turned to open the door.
After taking out the key, Zhu Qianying suddenly turned around and looked at Yan Shao, who had been standing behind her without moving, and said, "Yan Shao, I will calculate and send you Zizai's living expenses for this month tomorrow. Just transfer the amount, OK?"
Yan Shao grunted in acknowledgment, watched as she unlocked the door, slipped inside, and closed it before turning to leave.
When they returned to the Yan family home, it was almost eleven o'clock. Usually, Yan Bo and his wife would have gone to bed by this time. But today, when Yan Shao changed his shoes and walked into the living room, he was surprised to see Yan Bo still sitting on the sofa, looking down at a magazine.
"Dad, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Yanbo's life has always been very regular, especially as he got older.
"Yeah, I'd like to have a couple of drinks with you."
Both father and son understood that having a couple of drinks was actually a euphemism for having something to talk about.
"Dad, weren't you coughing a few days ago? Don't drink it. Have someone make you a pot of lung-soothing tea."
After giving an instruction to the servant, Yan Shao followed Yan Bo upstairs, turned left, and entered Yan Bo's study.
The servants quickly brewed two pots of tea as instructed by Young Master Yan. Young Master Yan poured tea for his father before pouring one for himself.
Yanbo looked at his son, feeling very gratified.
It is said that a man only truly matures after he gets married and starts a family.
This statement also applies to the father and son.
Over the past five years, my son has put in a lot of effort to find Zhu Qianying, and he has gradually changed from the person he used to be.
But his real transformation came after Zizai and Zhu Qianying returned.
"Are you very tired?"
Yanbo's own love life has been fraught with difficulties, causing trouble for himself and those around him for more than a decade. He originally thought that he and his wife, as enlightened parents and son, would not suffer the same fate.
Unexpectedly, his son, just like him, also suffered a major setback when it came to "love".
Over the past five years, watching his son go from being full of hope to gradually becoming disheartened and desperate, Yanbo thought that his son's life was probably over.
But a turning point often comes unexpectedly.
Zhu Qianying not only returned, but also brought back an incredibly cute child.
As for his son, it seems there's hope for him now.
However, from an outsider's perspective, the path the son is about to take is not easy.
Yan Han raised his eyes and stared at Yan Bo for several seconds, but instead of answering directly, he asked, "Dad, were you tired before?"
Yanbo smiled. Actually, didn't he understand his son's feelings better than anyone else?
Even knowing that what lies ahead is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, one will still try every means to overcome and strive for the person one most wants to see, because crossing over will allow one to do so.
Because I know that there is no other way or means to see that person or get to know that person except in this way!
Okay, good luck!
Yanbo picked up his cup and clinked it against his son's cup. Then, he drank the tea in one gulp, replacing the wine.
Yan Han also boldly picked up his cup and drank it all in one gulp!
With just a few words, Yanbo understood that his son had already mastered the art of relationships and no longer needed him and his wife to worry about it.
"Keep a close eye on the Zhu family!"
Yan Han nodded. "I know, I know what I'm doing. Besides, I don't think Ying'er will want to go back to Beijing with us for the time being. You and Mom should take Zizai back first. It's been almost a month, and if we don't go back soon, Grandpa and Grandma will probably have to fly over themselves."
Grandpa Yan and Grandma Yan are already quite old, so as their filial son and grandson, Yan Bo and Yan Han naturally don't want the two elders to go through all that trouble.
