Yan Shao picked her up and they sat facing each other in an embrace.
"Baby, do you really want these two hundred million?" Young Master Yan wasn't concerned about the money itself; he wanted to know if she really needed it urgently.
Zhu Qianying smiled and nodded, "Of course! Just think, two hundred million! How many luxury villas could I buy then?"
Upon hearing her say this, Yan Shao understood that she wasn't in a hurry to use the money, and that she was just teasing him.
"I thought you'd set your sights on another hotel and were planning to buy it out!"
On this point, Yan Shao admires Zhu Qianying quite a bit.
It had only been a few months since the Mingxuan Group changed hands, and the two hotels she proposed to acquire, which were on the verge of bankruptcy, were renovated before the Lunar New Year and reopened as Mingxuan Grand Hotels. Surprisingly, the profits in the first month were not low.
Industry insiders all praised Zhu Qianying for her good eye, but Yan Shao knew that his wife had conducted a lot of research and evaluation on the two hotels she was acquiring in private. When the board of directors proposed the acquisition, she listed a series of data and prospects that were convincing enough to convince everyone, which is why the acquisition was implemented so quickly.
Thus, Yan Shao was once again convinced that his previous views on Zhu Qianying were extremely accurate.
Ever since Zhu Qianying returned from the United States, she has been saying that she has no interest in doing business.
However, Yan Shao made many tests and concluded that she was actually very talented in business, especially in hotel management.
However, she seems to prefer design work to business. Moreover, she seems to understand that a person's energy is limited, so she handed over the management of Mingxuan to others and went to do what she liked more.
Yan Shao unconditionally supports her choice.
Perhaps one day, she'll say she's tired of design work and wants to go back to the business world, and he'll fully support her.
“There’s no one at the hotel… but I’ve got my eye on one!” Zhu Qianying said, looking at him with interest.
Yan Shao, being incredibly clever, grinned and moved closer to her, saying, "I know that, well, me!"
Zhu Qianying shoved him away, "You're shameless! Who was talking about you?"
Of course, the effort wasn't very strong.
Young Master Yan leaned closer, "Who is it? I'm going to challenge him to a duel!"
The two bantered and joked around in bed for a while, until finally, Zhu Qianying's rumbling stomach brought this childish interaction to an end.
Therefore, people in love usually lose their intelligence and rationality.
However, if Young Master Yan knew this, he would definitely refute it.
"Because I like someone, I'm more willing to face them with my most authentic and innocent self."
In other words, intelligence and rationality are for dealing with opponents; with people you like, all you need to do is be sincere and be your most authentic self, and that's enough.
...
The day after Zhu Qianying and Xiaoxiao were discharged from the hospital, the private plane carrying Yan Ting and his wife landed at the Yan family garden.
Zhu Qianying was originally going to go out to greet her, after all, she was the junior.
But her actions were stopped by Madam Yan, who said, "Ying'er, the wind is howling outside. You are still in your postpartum period and cannot catch a cold."
Helpless, she had no choice but to stay in the living room with the little girl.
As for serving tea and water, no one would let her do those things now. In fact, in her words, these days are the most precious days she has lived in her twenty-six years. If she hadn't protested repeatedly, Young Master Yan would probably have even helped her take a bath.
Yan Bo said that Yan Ting and his wife were coming, but when Zhu Qianying carried Xiao Xiao to the entrance to greet them, she saw Yan Yuan and his wife walk in together with Yan Ting and his wife.
"Uncle, parents, elder brother, and sister-in-law! You've come all this way, thank you for your trouble!"
Several elders smiled and nodded at her, then gathered around to see the little princess.
The group was extremely envious when they saw the little girl, but Yan Yuan's wife beat them to it and took the little one from him.
"Oh my, the little girl is so pretty! Come here, let your great-aunt hold her!"
Aunt carried the little girl and gently toddled her into the living room. The little girl was quite composed; seeing unfamiliar faces, she didn't fuss at all, but just opened her big, dark eyes and curiously looked at this and then that.
Yan Yuan and Yan Ting, two men who usually appear very serious to outsiders, also came close to the little girl, teasing her face and pinching her little hands and feet. They clearly adored her.
"Xiaohan, Grandpa and Grandma threw a tantrum this morning and insisted on coming with us. Could you record a video for us and send it to them?"
Yan Ting felt quite helpless when this was mentioned.
Yan Shao was naturally delighted that his precious daughter was liked by the elders in the family. He took out his phone and took pictures of the little girl's cute expressions as she pouted, frowned, or chewed her lips with the elders, and sent them to the phone of Yan Laoye's bodyguard.
A few minutes later, Yan Shao's phone rang.
"You brat, hurry up and pack your things, bring your wife and your little girl back for a few days. Your grandma will find the best postpartum nanny in Beijing to take care of Ying'er."
But Yan Shao knew that for Zhu Qianying, even the best postpartum nanny couldn't compare to her own mother.
"Grandpa, we'll go back when Xiaoxiao is a month old."
Despite Old Master Yan's threats and inducements over the phone, he still couldn't persuade Young Master Yan.
It's not that Yan Shao is unfilial, but for the sake of his wife and baby daughter's health, it's best to stay home and avoid unnecessary activities before the baby's one-month celebration.
Grandpa Yan finally conceded, allowing his grandson to film a video of the little girl and Zizai every day and send it to them.
The request was neither excessive nor difficult, and Young Master Yan readily agreed.
Yan Shao put down the phone. On the other end, besides her uncle, aunt, older brother, and sister-in-law, her parents were also surrounding the little girl.
Zhu Qianying sat to one side, occasionally responding to the elders. The conversation mainly revolved around the little girl.
The usual focus of conversation was on little Zizai. After the servants brought out the tea and fruit, he picked them up and handed them to each of the elders.
These tasks used to be done by Zhu Qianying, but now, the little guy doesn't want his mother to do them, so he's taken the initiative to do them.
"Zai Zai is so sensible, he's already acting like a big brother!"
Yan Ting is extremely serious in front of others, but he never hesitates to praise Zai Zai.
"Of course, I'll protect my little sister!"
Even at a young age, Zai Zai took it upon himself to protect his mother and grandmother.
But now he understands that Mommy has Daddy to protect her, and Grandma has Grandpa to protect her, so now, his job is just to protect his little sister.
"So, will Zizai still go to the special training this summer vacation?" Yan Ting teased him.
Zizai peeked at his younger sister, who was surrounded by people, hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head. "I'm not going, I want to stay home with my sister!"
