Chapter 79
When Ye Yan asked this question, Qin Su realized that she had blurted out the name from the previous world.
Seeing Ye Yan's somewhat dazed expression, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is it wrong of me to call you that?"
“There’s nothing wrong with that.” Ye Yan hesitated for a moment.
There was just a kind of intimacy that made his heart tremble.
That feeling of being both strange and familiar that I've been experiencing lately welled up in my heart once again.
Even though no one had ever called him in such a teasing tone before, he felt a strange sense of familiarity.
It's like I've heard it many times before.
Ye Yan suppressed his strange emotions and accompanied Qin Su to the second half of the charity gala.
As the crowd dispersed, Shi Mudan was busy catching her flight and didn't come over to talk to Qin Su. She waved to her across the crowd as a greeting.
Ye Yan stood next to Qin Su, clearly displaying an air of familiarity.
But he was facing away from Shi Mudan, so she couldn't see his face clearly, only vaguely feeling that he looked familiar.
Both men are prominent figures in the business world, so they naturally know each other, but the Ye family is not involved in the food industry, and the two sides have never cooperated.
Therefore, Shi Mudan didn't recognize Ye Yan immediately; only a question flashed through her mind:
"Why is this person so close to Su Su? Could he be Su Su's friend?"
The thought flashed through her mind, and she didn't dwell on it, thus missing her meeting with her future son-in-law.

Ye Yan was looking down at Qin Su and asking, "Are you going back to the Heartbeat House?"
Qin Su: "Let's go back, otherwise we'll have to get up early tomorrow morning to get there."
Ye Yan stretched out his arm to shield her from the oncoming people and naturally replied, "Then we can go back together."
Qin Su turned her head to look at him and smiled.
Amidst the shifting lights and shadows, her smile at such close range stirred Ye Yan's heart.
He lowered his voice and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Qin Su said, "I laugh at you for not even bothering to do a good job of appearances."
The two had already reached the entrance of the hall and were walking out along the red carpet.
Surrounded by bustling activity and elegant attire, Ye Yan suddenly had the illusion that they were walking down a wedding aisle.
This illusion made him slow down slightly, and he was also a little absent-minded: "What vanity project?"
Qin Su laughed and said, "You know perfectly well that I have a car and a driver, yet you didn't even ask."
Ye Yan was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.
He quickly looked at Qin Su's expression.
But Qin Su always managed her emotions very well, and Ye Yan couldn't tell whether she was happy or unhappy, or what her psychology was behind saying those words.
He hesitated for a moment, unsure how to explain: "I..."
Qin Su smiled slightly: "However, I plan to change my driver tonight. President Ye, would you like to apply?"
Ye Yan immediately replied, "Of course."
Qin Su laughed and said, "Is this how you usually do business? Don't you even ask about salary and benefits?"
Ye Yan thought for a moment, and then actually said, "I do have a request."
Qin Su raised an eyebrow and asked, "What request?"
Countless similar conversations flashed through her mind in an instant.
The slick ones would seize the opportunity to shower her with sweet words, the greedy ones would want her to agree to confess her feelings, and the honest and kind ones would know to try and get a date with her.
After all, Qin Su doesn't ask others for favors all the time, so this opportunity was rare.
What about Ye Yan?
What does he want to propose?
Qin Su followed Ye Yan to his car.
Ye Yan said, "Wait a moment."
He took a bouquet of roses from the back of the car and handed it to Qin Su.
Qin Su took the flowers and hugged them to her chest, saying, "I was wondering why I didn't see you delivering flowers at the school gate today. So you were trying to avoid the peak flower delivery period."
The bouquet had been in the car for a while, and even with preservation features, it inevitably started to wilt a bit.
Qin Su immediately guessed that Ye Yan must have prepared the flowers long ago.
She stroked one of the flowers, whose edges were slightly blackened, and wondered, "Your request isn't that I accept this bouquet, is it?"
Ye Yan shook his head: "No."
Qin Su: "?"
Ye Yan: "I'm just asking you to keep it for now. Can you return it to me after the show is finished recording?"
Qin Su paused for a moment, then looked up at Ye Yan.
Ye Yan remained calm as she scrutinized him.
Qin Su looked at him for a few seconds and said meaningfully, "It seems that President Ye is quite adept at doing business."
Ye Yan modestly replied, "So-so."
He knew Qin Su had seen through his thoughts, but he wasn't embarrassed. Instead, he opened the passenger door, bowed politely to Qin Su, and smiled gently: "Then, Mr. Qin, it's an honor to serve you tonight."
