Chapter 41 Shall we eat together?
After hanging up Si Jingxu's call, Yan silently turned on his computer and checked the stock codes that Si Jingxu had just sent.
The first two companies he acquired were a technology company and a film and television company.
Currently, the unit price is not high, and there is not much fluctuation in price increases or decreases.
Yan Buyu recalled Shen Yanzhou's previous mention of wanting to invest in a technology company. Could this be the one?
In that case, you definitely won't lose money.
Yan Buyu immediately calculated the amount of liquid funds he had on hand, which was less than one million.
This is her saved allowance and the money Shen Yunqi gave her.
That's not enough.
She didn't want to touch the rest of the money she had invested in the stock market.
or……
He opened the drawer and took out the card that Shen Yanzhou had given him.
Let's use this card first, and we can pay him back the principal when we make a profit.
Anyway, he said he could use this to practice.
I just don't know how much money she can control.
You should ask first; it's not appropriate to just take their money directly, right?
The phone rang, and Yan Buyu glanced at it, then smiled happily.
She answered the call with a smile, "Mom."
Lan Xinyan looked well. "Buyu, my darling, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to wash up and rest now, Mom," Yan Buyu said, lying on the bed with the camera pointed at her face. "Mom, where are you and Uncle now?"
“We’re in France. Haven’t you been to France yet? Come visit this summer. Your uncle bought a manor here.”
Without saying a word, I was filled with emotion; Mom looks so much prettier now.
Money can nourish people, that's true, but love can do it even better.
"By the way, honey, how are things going with your older brother?" Lan Xinyan always asks this question on the phone, afraid that her daughter might be mistreated.
When this was mentioned, Yan Buyu smiled and said, "I misunderstood my older brother before. He is very easy to get along with, very thoughtful, and good to me. He even gave me his credit card when he took me out to play."
After listening to Yan Buyu finish speaking, Lan Xinyan's eyes lit up. "Really? You two are getting along so well now. If you ask me, my darling is still the best. Everyone who spends time with you will like you."
Yan Buyu nodded, "Okay, so you and your uncle can travel the world together. Don't worry about me."
“That’s great. We’ll stay here for a while, and your uncle and I will go see the aurora.”
Yan Buyu was genuinely happy for Lan Xinyan; Lan Xinyan looked even more youthful than herself. "Mom, you two must be happy!"
"Oh, right," Lan Xinyan said before hanging up, remembering she had a child, "Where's your brother?"
Yan Buyu's eyes flickered for a moment, "Brother, go to sleep."
Lan Xinyan could tell she was guilty, but she also knew what kind of person her son was. "He's probably out fooling around again. Fine, I don't care about him anymore. Just be good to you, baby. Bye."
Goodbye, Mom.
After hanging up with my mother, I felt completely at ease, neither speaking a word.
A casual chat with family is better than the most expensive psychologist.
"Knock knock".
The door opened softly; the sound was like that of the eldest brother.
Without saying a word, she jogged over and opened the door, and sure enough, she saw Shen Yanzhou standing outside.
They must have just come back from a social event and hadn't had time to change their clothes.
He had a faint smell of alcohol and tobacco on him.
Shen Yanzhou smiled apologetically, "I just got back, and I was afraid you'd be asleep by the time I finished washing up, so I didn't change my clothes."
Yan Buyu smiled and shook his head. "It's alright, big brother. Did you have a good dinner? Would you like me to cook you some noodles?"
"No need," Shen Yanzhou said, handing her a pinkish-purple cake box. "They served a dessert during dinner, it looked really pretty, so I packed one up to bring back. Would you like to try it?"
Yan Buyu enjoys the surprises that her family brings home in everyday life.
The little cakes my mom brought home from get off work when I was little, the fried chicken my older brother brought home from school when I grew up...
Now, she also receives small desserts from her older brother after his social engagements.
The small details of life truly told her that she was loved by many people.
Her nose suddenly felt a little sore, and she quickly replied without saying a word, "Has Big Brother eaten?"
"No, I was drinking and didn't have time to eat. I just thought you might like it."
"After you finish washing up, come downstairs and we'll eat together, okay?" Yan Buyu looked up at Chen Yanzhou.
Shen Yanzhou was slightly taken aback. The girl's eyes were red-rimmed, and she was pursing her lips, looking both cute and pitiful.
He raised his hand to pat her head, his voice softening slightly, "Okay, I'll go wash up, you go downstairs and eat first."
With a silent voice, she carefully carried the box in her right hand and supported the bottom with her left, as she entered the living room.
She even went to the restaurant to look for Shen Yunqi, but didn't see him.
She took out her phone and sent a WeChat message: "Where's my brother? He bought a cake, come and have some too."
After a while, Shen Yunqi replied: [I'm chatting with Qiqi, you eat, eat by yourself, don't give any to Boss Shen.]
Locking your phone screen without saying a word is so childish.
Actually, my older brother has had a tough time too, as he was alone abroad at a very young age.
He excels in both his studies and work. It must take incredible self-discipline for him to succeed without his parents watching over him.
Now that he's back in China taking over his uncle's company, I've never heard him complain about being tired or facing any difficulties.
But she clearly remembered that when her uncle came back from social engagements, he would hug her mother and whine, saying that the food wasn't good or that he wasn't full.
Back then, my mother would always smile and go to the kitchen to cook him a simple bowl of plain noodles.
Yan Buyu was taken aback. Was it because his older brother had no one to whim to that he never complained about being tired?
He seems even more pitiful than I am.
Thinking of this, he went into the kitchen without saying a word.
After washing up and changing into her pajamas, Shen Yanzhou came to the living room and saw only the unopened cake.
He remained silent, yet his whereabouts were unknown.
"Big brother!" came a clear, girlish voice from behind.
Chen Yanzhou turned his head.
Without saying a word, he held a tray with both hands, on which was a bowl of steaming clear soup noodles, with bright green scallions floating on the surface.
The aroma of sesame oil wafted over, and Shen Yanzhou's stomach rumbled.
Upon hearing this, Yan Buyu's smile widened. "I made you a bowl of noodles. Uncle used to ask Mom to cook him a bowl whenever he came back from socializing. Big brother, have some."
Shen Yanzhou is used to being independent and is also very self-disciplined.
Even if he doesn't get enough to eat when he eats out, he won't eat again when he gets home.
He felt comfortable falling asleep while hungry.
This was the second time Yan Buyu had prepared a late-night snack for him since he returned home.
My first time making ginger milk curd and steamed egg custard.
Now I'm making soup noodles myself.
A warm current flowed through my heart, pumping throughout my body with my blood pressure.
Shen Yanzhou, who hadn't eaten yet, felt hot all over.
"Thank you, Buyu." Shen Yanzhou walked to the table, picked up his chopsticks, lightly picked up a few strands of noodles, and immediately put them down before taking a bite.
"What's wrong, brother? Don't you want scallions?" Yan Buyu asked, puzzled.
“No,” Shen Yanzhou took out his phone, arranged the bowls and chopsticks neatly, and looked serious and focused. “I’ll take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments.”
Silence: ...
Well, it seems like the older brother also enjoys documenting his life.
