There was no news from Tong Laoda all morning. Around 10 a.m., Yan Bo and Tong Xiaohuai left Yanhuang together to pick up An Zijun at the airport.
Tong Xiaohuai thought that this An Zijun should be a middle-aged man similar to Uncle Zheng.
But when she heard someone call Yanbo, she looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome man dressed in extremely fashionable clothes.
She looked at Yan Bo with a questioning gaze, and Yan Bo nodded, confirming her guess.
Yan Bo took Tong Xiaohuai's hand and went to greet them, "Zijun, it's been a long time."
"Third Young Master, it's been a long time!"
The handsome man opened his arms and gave Yan Bo a big hug.
After a warm hug, An Zijun smiled and extended her hand to Tong Xiaohuai, "Hello, beautiful lady! You must be Third Sister-in-law? My name is An Zijun, and I'm Yanbo's best friend!"
Tong Xiaohuai had been dating Yan Bo for several months, and this was the first time she had heard the title "Third Sister-in-law." So, she was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what it meant, she blushed and reached out to hold An Zijun's hand.
"Hello, my name is Tong Xiaohuai. Thank you for making this special trip for me."
An Zijun smiled and said, "It's not hard work at all. The Third Young Master's salary is very generous. I'm not losing out at all."
Although he said that, Tong Xiaohuai remembered Uncle Zheng's words and expression when he mentioned this person last night.
Clearly, this is not someone you can hire just by having money.
In the car, all three of them put aside their formalities and began to recount the events in detail.
When it comes to business, An Zijun is like a completely different person.
After picking up An Zijun, the three of them met up with Boss Tong and Uncle Zheng, had lunch first, and then An Zijun left with Boss Tong and Uncle Zheng.
Because most of the Tong family's shops were forced to close, Tong Xiaohuai, who had nothing to do, still returned to Yanhuang with Yanbo.
"Actually, I think I should go with my dad to meet those people." Tong Xiaohuai said this to her father several times, but it was resolutely rejected each time.
Yan Bo had considered this question before, and came to this answer: "Xiao Huai, Uncle Tong is not letting you participate in this matter because it is dangerous. Rather, for various reasons, many of those matters are no longer being handled by the Tong family. Since they are now history, it is normal for Uncle Tong not to want you to get involved."
If Yan Bo's guess is correct, after confirming that he would hand over the Tong family to Tong Xiaohuai, Tong Laoda gradually ended many of the Tong family's sensitive affairs.
In short, in Yanbo's eyes, the Tong family is just an ordinary business family now.
"Xiao Huai, come here..." Yan Bo said, then beckoned to Tong Xiao Huai, who was sitting on the sofa deep in thought.
Tong Xiaohuai glanced at him. "What is it?"
Yan Bo didn't say anything, but waved to her again.
Tong Xiaohuai reluctantly got up and slowly walked to his side.
Yan Bo wrapped his arms around her waist and deftly lifted her onto his lap.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable because Uncle Tong is isolating you from everything?"
Tong Xiaohuai nodded honestly, "Yes, I know he means well. But he's getting old, he can't carry on forever, can he?"
Yan Bo kissed her on the cheek. "You're not wrong to think that way, but think back carefully, of the things Uncle Tong talked about last night, which ones did you actually experience?"
Tong Xiaohuai thought back blankly for a moment, then obediently shook her head.
"It seems not..."
"That's right. Since you know nothing about it, what help do you think you can offer?"
"But An Zijun doesn't know either, does she?" Tong Xiaohuai persisted.
Yan Bo laughed at her stubbornness. "He's a lawyer, and you are, aren't you? Besides, look, I wasn't involved in this, was I?"
Seeing that she remained silent, Yan Bo asked her, "Do you know what it means to make things worse by trying to help?"
Tong Xiaohuai turned her head and rolled her eyes at him, "Yanbo, am I really that stupid?"
Yan Bo smiled and touched her face, as if to soothe her agitation.
"Everyone has things that are beyond their control. If you pretend to know what you don't and try to help, you'll only be a hindrance. Trust your dad, and trust Uncle Ming and Uncle Zheng, okay?"
At this point, even if Tong Xiaohuai was unwilling, she could only nod helplessly.
And so, Tong Xiaohuai stayed in Yan Bo's office for three consecutive days.
On the first day, she carefully reviewed the documents Yan Bo had given her. On the second and third days, she simply stuffed her books and notebooks into her backpack and studied in Yan Bo's office, since the final exams were just around the corner.
For several days in a row, Yanbo and Tong Xiaohuai came to work together. During a meeting, an executive joked with Yanbo.
"Boss, is it that you don't trust your wife, or that your wife doesn't trust you?"
Yan Bo felt that Tong Xiaohuai could not trust him, a model young man with impeccable character and good morals.
"What could she possibly worry about about a man like me?"
"Boss, men are the most dishonest creatures in the world. There are so many men who say one thing to your face and another behind your back!"
Yan Bo was too lazy to argue with her. He returned to his office, threw the documents on the coffee table, and sat down next to Tong Xiaohuai, pulling her into his arms.
After a passionate kiss that almost suffocated Tong Xiaohuai, she nestled breathlessly in Yan Bo's arms and heard him ask, "Xiaohuai, do you think I'm true to myself?"
Tong Xiaohuai looked up at him in confusion, her brain, severely irritated, unable to process what he was saying for a moment. "Huh? What do you mean by being true to oneself?"
Yanbo lowered his head and gently rubbed his lips against her rosy lips.
"Did I kiss you so hard you went mad?"
Tong Xiaohuai's IQ recovered slightly, and she gave him a sweet smile, "Yeah, you kissed me so hard I went crazy, you have to take responsibility for me."
Yan Bo gave her a deep look and nodded solemnly.
"Yes, I will take responsibility for you for the rest of my life."
Tong Xiaohuai reached out her hand and touched his lips. "If I become a penniless pauper, will you still take responsibility for me?"
Yan Bo grabbed her hand and gently nibbled on it a few times.
"Then let me ask you, if I become a penniless pauper, will you take responsibility for me?"
Tong Xiaohuai smiled and shook her head, "No!"
Yan Bo's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he made a move to bite her.
Tong Xiaohuai giggled and hid in his arms, trying her best to burrow into his embrace.
After a while, she finally raised her flushed face, patted his tense face that was pretending to be angry, and said, "If you become penniless, I'll give you a dollar, and then I'll take care of you for the rest of my life!"
Yan Bo couldn't help but chuckle. "My patron, could you give me more? One yuan isn't even enough to buy a can of soda. Are you going to support me for the rest of my life with this bag?"
Tong Xiaohuai shrugged. "Yeah, because I'm broke too, I only have one yuan left. Do you want to be my mistress? If you don't want to, I'll find someone else!"
