So, this isn't the first time Young Master Yan has gotten drunk?
"Uncle Hai, has the master been getting drunk a lot lately?" Knowing he shouldn't ask about the master's private affairs, Ke Kai couldn't help but blurt out.
After all, who doesn't gossip?
Of course, in Ke Kai's view, this wasn't gossip, but concern. Otherwise, if this person were just some random cat or dog he bumped into on the street, he wouldn't bother with them at all!
Uncle Hai replied, "Yes, I've been getting drunk a lot these days!" Then he muttered to himself, "Probably because I'm troubled by love."
Uncle Hai's words immediately reminded Ke Kai of Zhu Qianying, who lived outside.
Before he could ask anything more, Uncle Hai and his bodyguards had already escorted Young Master Yan into the house. "Kai, it's so late, why don't you stay here tonight?"
After giving his instructions, Uncle Hai left Ke Kai to attend to Young Master Yan.
Ke Kai checked the time and realized it was indeed getting late, so he stayed overnight at the Yan family's house.
He was awakened early in the morning by a knock on the door. Still half asleep, he got up and opened the door. Outside was Uncle Hai.
"Kai Zi, I'm already having breakfast. Do you want to come out with me?"
No matter how self-disciplined Ke Kai is, he's not as abnormal as Yan Shao, who gets up at six o'clock every day without fail.
Ke Kai mumbled something under his breath, but still reluctantly got out of bed.
Firstly, how could a guest like him stay in bed at his host's house?
Secondly, since Yan Shao is his boss and he's already up, why should he, as a subordinate, slack off or stay in bed?
Ke Kai rushed downstairs after washing up, while Yan Shao was still sitting at the dining table eating breakfast.
"Sir, are you feeling better?"
Ke Kai looked at Yan Shao with great concern, then pulled out a chair and sat down.
Yan Shao lazily lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, "I'm perfectly fine!"
Damn! Who was so drunk last night that they came back to the Yan family from Yiran Pavilion without uttering a sound?
But now, he stubbornly insists on pretending!
"Yeah, sir, you're a really good drinker. You must have drunk most of a bottle last night, right?"
Having followed Young Master Yan for so many years, Ke Kai was honestly witnessing Young Master Yan's drunken state for the first time last night.
A person like Yan Shao would not easily let others see his weaknesses, and it would be impossible for him to get drunk in front of others without restraint.
But last night...
Ke Kai wanted to verify something, but then he thought that his master was such a smart man that he must have his reasons for doing anything. If he felt he had to say something, he would definitely explain it clearly, so he decided not to ask any more questions.
Yan Shao glanced at him indifferently again, "Eat breakfast!"
Ke Kai immediately shut up and obediently picked up the bowl and took a sip of rice porridge.
After breakfast, Ke Kai and Yan Shao went out together. The driver drove the car out onto the main road outside the villa area, pulled over, and stopped.
"You take a taxi home yourself!"
Ke Kai thought to himself, "Damn it, you're kicking me while I'm down!"
On the surface, she obediently got out of the car, and even gave Yan Shao a charming smile and waved to him inside the car, "Master, be careful on the road!"
Yan Shao nodded slightly, and as the car window rolled up, he tossed out a sentence, "Wait for my call tomorrow night!"
Ke Kai felt a chill run down his spine. Tomorrow night, they had to continue?
It wasn't until noon that Yan Shao returned to Yanhuang.
Upon seeing him, Qin Xiu looked at him with a mournful expression, as if he had seen a savior. "Sir," he said, "that approval document is stuck. What should we do?"
Yan Shao tapped the table, signaling him to put the documents down first.
Qin Xiu shoved the documents in his hand at Yan Shao, "This and this, they say we don't meet the standards, but didn't they already send people to test it on-site? How can they do this?"
Yan Shao glanced at the standard on the document, raised his hand and patted Qin Xiu's shoulder, signaling him to calm down, "Don't worry, I guess my old man is missing me again!"
As he spoke, he picked up the phone and dialed.
The call was quickly answered, and Old Master Yan's booming voice came through, "You brat, you finally remembered to call your old man?"
Yan Shao's lips curled up slightly. "Grandpa, when have I ever not thought of you? I've just been too busy lately to find the time. Besides, didn't I have Mom and Dad take Zizai over to keep you and Grandma company? I've been so filial, what could you possibly be dissatisfied with?"
The old man snorted, "If you're really filial, then be straightforward. Have your eldest uncle find a proper job, and have your whole family move back to live with us. That's what filial piety is!"
Yan Shaowei frowned almost imperceptibly. The old man would use this trick of forcing him to return to the capital to enter politics once or twice a year. Every time, he would pick some big obstacles to use. Doesn't he get tired of it?
Thus, Yan Shao couldn't help but feel sorry for his father from decades ago.
He is now only fighting for his career. Back then, his father was fighting for both his career and his love life. Wouldn't he have had a huge fight with his grandfather?
Furthermore, back then, the old man's temper was a million times more difficult to deal with than it is now!
Of course, these were all things that Grandma Yan told Young Master Yan. As Young Master Yan was the youngest grandson, even if the old man was ruthless, he wouldn't dare to go too far or go too out of line.
At most, it's just like right now, occasionally creating some obstacles and making things difficult for him, that's all.
"Grandpa, you know I'm not cut out for politics. I offend more people than I'm respected. Tell me, where do you want Uncle to place me? In the military? I'm afraid you'll hear about me being executed for disobeying orders before you even see me get promoted. In other departments? You want me to serve tea and water and act like a lackey? Who does he think he is?"
Yan Shao has said these words to the old man countless times over the years, but the old man always has to make a fuss to be happy.
"Nonsense! Who would dare let my grandson serve tea and water to others? I'd kill him first!" Old Master Yan roared with a powerful voice.
"Grandpa, be good, stop fooling around! If that approval doesn't come through, your grandson will probably have to jump off the top of the Yanhuang Building after the Spring Festival. Do you want that?"
Qin Xiu, who was standing to the side, broke out in a cold sweat as he listened to his master calmly speaking threatening words to the once-powerful old man on the other end of the microphone. The Yan family, from top to bottom, really had no good people among them!
It's just a threat, is it really necessary to make it so sophisticated?
I don't know what the old man on the other end of the phone said, but this time, Young Master Yan used a tone that was directly coaxing the young master.
"Alright, alright, I understand. During the Spring Festival holiday, I will definitely bring Ying'er and Zizai back to apologize to you and Grandma. Then, you can punish me however you want, okay?"
Hearing this, Qin Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Shao hung up the phone and pushed the documents in front of Qin Xiu. "Alright, go and finish the rest of the procedures this afternoon!"
Qin Xiu was about to leave with the documents when Yan Shao suddenly called out to him, "By the way, make sure you're free tomorrow night!"
Qin Xiu assumed it was just some social obligation and readily agreed, "Okay!"
