After seeing Yan Su, Tong Xiaohuai finally felt relieved.
Dressed in a business suit, Yan Su bears a striking resemblance to Yan Bo, sharing about five or six points of similarity in appearance. In terms of temperament, she is more like Yan Yuan, exuding a strong and assertive aura.
Yan Bo possesses a subtle, refined air about him, something neither Yan Su nor Yan Yuan possess.
"Xiao Huai, right? I'm Yan Bo's second sister. You can call me Second Sister just like he does."
Yan Su, who saw them enter the coffee shop from afar, came up to them and took the initiative to extend her hand to Tong Xiaohuai.
Tong Xiaohuai smiled at the second daughter of the Yan family, who exuded an air of authority, and said, "Hello, second sister, I am Xiaohuai."
It must be said that Yan Su is indeed a diplomat; she gives off a strong impression, but not so strong that it makes people uncomfortable.
Although there was no smile on his face, his calm and composed demeanor gave people a sense of reassurance.
"I had to work overtime last night, so I didn't go home. I only received Xiao Bo's call very late. I'm sorry." Yan Su apologized for her absence last night.
"Second sister, you're too kind. I was too abrupt. I visited you suddenly without telling you beforehand."
"What does this have to do with you? It's Xiao Bo who didn't do well enough. Go back and give him a good scolding."
Yan Su looked at Yan Bo, and finally a faint smile appeared on her face.
Tong Xiaohuai felt quite envious, but after only meeting him once, she could tell that Yan Bo's second sister truly loved him.
Just like how Brother Yan dotes on Yan Bo, it's so pampering that it makes people jealous.
Tong Xiaohuai had never experienced this kind of deep, blood-is-thicker-than-water bond between brothers and sisters, nor had she ever envied anyone before. But watching Yanbo interact and get along with his older brother and second sister, she couldn't help but feel a longing for it.
"Second sister, how can you do this? You're siding with outsiders!"
Holding her cup, Yan Su glared at him. "Is this turning against us? Isn't Xiao Huai one of our own?"
Yan Bo quickly nodded, "Of course Xiao Huai is one of us. What I mean is, with Xiao Huai around, I've clearly fallen out of favor!"
Yan Su put down her cup and said to Tong Xiaohuai with a smile, "Actually, when I was little, I only wanted a younger sister and didn't want a younger brother at all. Sisters are so well-behaved, while brothers are naughty and annoying."
Tong Xiaohua smiled at her shyly, "Second sister, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I was very naughty when I was little, and my dad always said I was never peaceful."
"That's right, second sister. Don't let her gentle and elegant appearance fool you. In reality, she's a master of Taekwondo and boxing, and her shooting skills are so good that I'm jealous! So, you're really going to be disappointed."
Yan Su's smile never faded. Now, she said to Tong Xiaohuai with a look of regret, "It's such a pity. Next time you and Xiao Bo come back, tell me in advance so we can have a good sparring match."
Tong Xiaohuai immediately understood. She guessed that the second daughter of the Yan family had similar childhood experiences to Yan Bo.
"Okay, we'll definitely tell Second Sister in advance next time."
As a young and promising diplomat, Yan Su doesn't have much private time.
Although she and Tong Xiaohuai had a good chat, she only stayed for half an hour before getting up to say goodbye.
Tong Xiaohuai took out the gift he had originally prepared for her and gave it to her. Yan Su did not refuse and readily accepted it, saying thank you.
"Xiao Bo didn't tell me you were coming, and I didn't have time to prepare a gift. I'll make it up to you next time I come. Or, you can just tell me what you want."
"Second sister, you're too kind. Go ahead and do your work. When do you have time to come to L City? Yanbo and I will keep you company."
After Yan Su left, Yan Bo and Tong Xiaohuai simply ate lunch early at the coffee shop before heading to the airport.
"Xiao Huai, I'm sorry, I made you uncomfortable this time."
On the way to the airport, Yanbo hugged her with a guilty look on his face, kissing her hair and nagging her.
Tong Xiaohuai looked up and glared at him, threatening him fiercely.
"If you say that again, I will never come back with you again."
Yan Bo quickly shut his mouth!
"Actually, I think it's fine!"
Although, Tong Xiaohuai still feels very uncomfortable about what Yan Zhong said.
But all of this was expected. Yan Ma's attitude was better than Tong Xiaohuai had anticipated, while Yan Su's attitude surprised Tong Xiaohuai.
Tong Xiaohuai honestly told Yan Bo all her feelings. Yan Bo listened quietly until she finished speaking, and after a long while, he said something.
"Don't be too happy about your second sister. She is indeed good to you, but she probably won't say anything good about us."
Before Tong Xiaohuai could say anything, Yan Bo added, "Of course, she won't hold us back. What I mean is, her opinion probably won't influence my dad. The same goes for my older brother."
Tong Xiaohuai nodded knowingly. For a family like the Yan family, Yan Yuan and Yan Su's reaction was already considered very friendly.
"It's alright, we have plenty of time!"
Yan Bo and Tong Xiaohuai shared the same opinion on this point.
They are both young, and they have plenty of time.
Besides, relationships aren't everything in life. Both he and Tong Xiaohuai have plenty of work waiting for them in L City.
Therefore, they didn't actually have much time to worry about Yan's parents' attitude. On the plane, they both took a nap, and after leaving the airport, they got into their respective cars and went about their own business.
A few days ago, Yanbo's friend's accounting company sent several highly professional accountants to check the accounts of Tongjia Money Shop. The work was already halfway done. Tong Xiaohuai, the boss, had been working with the accountants for the past few days, learning a lot and finding many loopholes.
Yanbo, on the other hand, is still busy trying to secure a loan.
In the car, Di Xu handed several documents to Yan Bo.
"Boss, if there isn't any new funding coming in for the villa project, it might..."
Yan Bo nodded solemnly, "I know, I'll think of another way."
At this moment, Yan Bo no longer had the relaxed and gentle demeanor that Tong Xiaohuai had seen at the airport.
Yanbo said he would try to find a solution, and he did make several phone calls along the way. During the calls, he spoke fluently in English, and nothing seemed amiss while he was talking, as he always had a gentle smile on his face. However, after hanging up, his expression became even more serious.
Di Xu didn't dare to say much, he just kept his head down and sorted out the documents that Yan Bo had handed over to him.
But in the end, he couldn't help but say to Yan Bo, "Boss, why don't we really talk to Junior Sister about this?"
Yan Bo bit his lip and after a long while said, "Let's see, maybe there are other ways."
This wasn't the first time Yanbo had encountered such a difficulty. Usually, he could find a solution, and this time, he believed he could solve it on his own.
