Finally, Ye Yuan changed the subject and asked his second son, "Zhongnan, now that you've regained your identity, what are your plans? Are you going back to the capital after the New Year?"
Ye Yuanwen's words were exactly the issue that Ye Zhongnan had been struggling with these past few days.
Ten years ago, he had already achieved some success in Beijing. Now, his reputation has soared even higher, especially after winning the championship at a culinary competition. He is sought after by state banquet halls, master appraisers, and major star-rated hotels.
At the very moment Ye Yuan asked, Ye Zhongnan suddenly had the answer.
"Father, I've decided not to go to the capital. I want to stay in Shanghai." After saying that, he looked at Xiaoxi with warm eyes.
In fact, Ye Zhongnan's family had already guessed his decision: why he didn't go to the capital.
Ye Zhongnan reached the pinnacle of his life the moment he won the competition, partly because Xiao Xi was not in the capital.
Ye Zhongnan wants to be with his sister.
“Father, I have a new goal now. I want to work with Xiaoxi in Shanghai to turn Guangdajie into the second food street.”
Great! Everyone agreed. Xiaoxi was also happy to be with her second brother. Her second brother was a rational and gentle person. To be honest, she was also reluctant to let him go to the capital.
And so, Ye Aotian's desire to buy Xiaodou was overshadowed by Ye Zhongnan's topic at the dinner table.
Throughout the Lunar New Year holiday, Xiaoxi was just hoping that her older brother would take his "green tea" daughter away soon.
With the Lantern Festival approaching, Ye Aotian was about to leave, but he dropped a bombshell at the dinner table.
"Father, Mother, I'm leaving in a couple of days. I've decided to leave Xiaoya in Shanghai to study. I'll leave the enrollment process to the fourth brother. She'll be in the same school and class as Xiaoxi."
What? Xiaoxi held back her laughter for a moment before she jumped up: What does Big Brother mean? Is he trying to mess with her?
She turned her gaze to her fourth brother.
Ye Wentao shook his head at Xiaoxi, meaning that his parents hadn't spoken yet.
Liang Wanyi: "Aotian, after the first month of the lunar calendar, your father and I will be returning to the Southern Province Military Region. There will be no one to take care of Xiaoya then."
The mother's meaning was clear: she did not want Ye Xiaoya to stay in Shanghai.
Ye Wentao quickly added, "My fifth and sixth brothers will be leaving after the New Year, and my third brother and I will be busy with our own work. Besides, none of us have ever taken care of children."
Ye Aotian looked at Ye Zhongnan meaningfully.
"Since my second brother wants to stay on Guangda Street, then let Xiaoya and Xiaoxi keep him company. The two of them, aunt and niece, will both stay on Guangda Street."
Anyway, Ye Zhongnan only dabble in cooking occasionally, and it's not like I really need Ye Zhongnan to take care of me. I'll find someone to take good care of Xiaoya's daily life.
Xiaoya has been too lonely since she was little. I think Xiaoxi has a very good personality, and I hope Xiaoya can become more cheerful like Xiaoxi.
"What do you mean that Second Brother only dabble in cooking? Second Brother also has his own career pursuits, you know."
"Eldest brother, this is disrespectful to second brother. How can you make a decision without asking if second brother is willing?"
Xiaoxi was furious and finally stood up to challenge her older brother.
"And big brother, it's your freedom to stay in Shanghai, but with so many prestigious schools in Shanghai, why does she have to go to the same school as me?"
"Because the prestigious school you attend, when it was founded, our Ye family was the largest board member, and I personally handled the funding. If Xiaoya doesn't attend this school, who else would she go to?"
Ye Aotian's tone left no room for argument.
"Alright then, big brother, you can send your Xiaoya to that school, I'll transfer."
