Although Yun Yan was unhappy, she didn't plan to quarrel with him right now. After all, the country was implementing family planning. Public servants like Shen Ye could only have one child. Even if he gave birth to a daughter, he would have no choice unless he was willing to give up his future!
On New Year's Eve, Yun Yan happily had the New Year's Eve dinner with Shen Ye and Shen Ye's grandparents.
"Xiaoye, Yanyan, there is only half a year left before your wedding. After the New Year, you have to start arranging everything!" said Grandpa Shen.
"Grandpa, Yunyan and I want to keep the wedding as simple as possible. There's no need to make such a grand ceremony." Shen Ye said.
"Xiao Ye, you are the only grandson of your grandfather and me. Now that you are getting married, your grandparents will of course help you make your wedding a grand one!" said Grandma Liang.
"Then grandpa and grandma, you guys can take care of the arrangements, but don't make it too grand. After all, I'm the director of the Shenzhen Investment Promotion Office now. It would be bad if it was too high-profile!" Shen Ye said.
As the three of them chatted, Yun Yan quietly ate the fruit from her fruit bowl. She knew that even though she was the one getting married, they would never listen to her ideas about how to organize the wedding. Since no one would listen, she might as well say nothing. After all, her wedding wouldn't be too shabby!
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Ye took Yun Yan to the Friendship Store and bought a pair of Patek Philippe couple watches. Yun Yan also bought a color camera. Perhaps because color cameras were still very rare, a color camera cost more than the Patek Philippe couple watches they bought.
On the way back, Chen Ye met Zhang Yaoqing. She saw Chen Ye holding a shopping bag in his left hand and holding a woman's hand with his right hand, and she felt jealous.
"Chen Ye, long time no see! I heard that you retired from the army, and I never had the chance to talk to you." Zhang Yaoqing said.
"I have nothing to say to you, and I'm not very familiar with you." Shen Ye said coldly.
"Chen Ye, how can you say that? We were once engaged, and even if the engagement was cancelled, there is no need for you to treat me as an enemy! Or is it because there is another woman by your side, and you are so heartless to me in order to please her?" Zhang Yaoqing said aggrievedly.
What a white lotus! She said this just to let herself know that Shen Ye had been engaged to her so that she could have a falling out with Shen Ye!
"Chen Ye, it turns out that she is your fiancée who broke off the engagement! Tsk tsk tsk, your vision was not very good before!" Yun Yan said.
When Zhang Yaoqing heard Yun Yan's words, she immediately asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"It's nothing interesting. I'm just commenting on my fiancé's previous vision! Sister, I see that you are not young anymore. Why are you still harassing your fiancé who just broke off the engagement on the street? Haven't you married yourself yet?" Yun Yan said in an exaggerated manner.
Chen Ye couldn't help but laugh when he heard Yun Yan's words. Zhang Yaoqing's face flushed and paled after hearing Yun Yan's words. After breaking off her engagement with Shen Ye, she quickly got married. Her ex-husband's parents were members of the Gang of Four. When she married him, she was very prosperous.
But the good times didn't last long. After the Gang of Four fell, her ex-husband's parents were arrested. In order to distance herself from him, she divorced him and didn't even want the child!
After her divorce, she moved back to her parents' home, but her reputation had been ruined. Her parents and brother were all demoted, and no prominent family in the entire capital was willing to marry her.
So she and her family turned their attention back to Chen Ye. She originally thought that Chen Ye had not married and had children because he could not forget his old love for her, and she thought that she would have a chance to reconcile with Shen Ye!
"Yan Yan is right, my vision was really not that good before!" said Shen Ye.
"Then I have to improve your aesthetic taste in the future. Don't be fooled by those inferior things anymore!" Yun Yan said.
Listening to the two of them singing in unison, Zhang Yaoqing couldn't bear it anymore and ran away crying with her hands covering her face.
After Zhang Yaoqing left, Yun Yan stared at Chen Ye without saying a word!
"Yun Yan, don't be angry. She was the marriage that my grandparents arranged for me when I was a child!" Shen Ye explained.
"Then why have I never heard you mention such a child marriage?" Yun Yan asked.
"It's all in the past, I don't want to talk about it! And it's not a glorious thing, why bother bringing it up again?" Chen Ye said.
"But it seems like she hasn't given up on you yet!" Yun Yan said.
"She's not giving up on me, she just wants to use the same old tricks again! How can someone like her be sincere?" Chen Ye said.
He had heard a little about Zhang Yaoqing's affairs, but he didn't expect that after all these years, she was still so selfish! He used to think that she was forced to break off the engagement with him by her parents, but now it seems that their family is exactly the same, all selfish people.
After hearing what he said, Yun Yan didn't get to the bottom of the relationship between him and Zhang Yaoqing. Only a foolish woman would always hold on to the past that a man doesn't want to mention!
After the Chinese New Year, Chen Ye and Yun Yan left Beijing. After returning to Guangzhou, they went their separate ways to deal with their own affairs.
After distributing red envelopes to all employees on the first day of work at the garment factory, Yun Yan called several senior managers to a meeting in the conference room.
"The purpose of today's meeting is to tell you a good news. I have a 3,000 square meter piece of land in Yunjing Street, Guangzhou City. I plan to build a residential area there. After the houses are built, every senior manager here can choose one!" Yun Yan said.
Her words left everyone in the meeting room in disbelief. The boss was actually going to give her a house for free? Who would believe such a thing?
"Mr. Yun, you are not kidding us, right?" Liu Yanchuan asked.
Although Yun Yan had promised him that she could have her own house in Guangzhou within three years when she first approached him, it was too shocking to just give her a house!
"I'm not kidding you. It's true that each person will have a house. But you have to sign an agreement, guaranteeing that you will work for Xia Company for ten years. At the end of the ten years, the house you live in will belong to you completely!" Yun Yan said.
"Mr. Yun, do you mean that if we don't work here for ten years, the company will take the house back?" Jiaqi asked.
"Yes, but you can also buy the house by paying the difference!" Yun Yan said.
Neither Liu Yanchuan nor the others objected to Yun Yan's offer. After all, the Xia clothing business was booming. They also received a handsome monthly salary. Most importantly, Yun Yan, as their boss, never told them what to do. No one would be foolish enough to betray such a boss!
