Chapter 273: Mutual Attack



That day, Yan Qing was in a rare calm mood. She and the nanny were tidying up the small garden downstairs, which was full of roses.

When Yan's father came back in the evening, he heard a series of laughter coming from inside as soon as he entered the door.

"The soup is ready. Put it over there first. My dad will be back soon. I'll bring it over then."

"It smells so good. Miss's cooking skills are getting better and better."

After hearing the conversation, Yan's father, who had been working outside all day, suddenly felt relieved.

After entering, I found that Yan Qing seemed to have returned to his previous self, without any trace of the sadness he had been feeling in the past few days.

"What's wrong? You're cooking all of a sudden? You didn't like cooking before!"

Hearing Yan's father's teasing, Yan Qing blushed for a rare moment, helped bring up the prepared dishes, and then walked forward to look at Yan's father with a smile.

"No, I'm just practicing. If you try it and it tastes good, I'll make it when I have time. I'm your daughter after all, how could I not even learn how to cook?"

Yan's father didn't care about this, but he was very pleased to be able to eat the food cooked by Yan Qing.

The closer I got to the kitchen, the stronger the aroma became, and it smelled different from before.

"It's really different. The food my daughter cooks seems to smell better."

"It's not that exaggerated. Auntie taught me step by step. There's no way there's such a big difference!"

Yan Qing felt a little embarrassed, after all, they had the same master.

"Dad, please sit down and try the meal I cooked. Let's have this soup first. We prepared it for a long time and stewed it for a long time. It's just the right soup to nourish your body."

"You're thoughtful. Let me try it."

Yan Qing sat next to Yan's father, feeling a little nervous. She had never made this dish before and she was not sure how to make it.

"Very good, I didn't realize you had this ability before. It's very good, you can even open a store."

It’s still the same as before. When Yan’s father praises his daughter, he says she is the best in every way.

Hearing this compliment, Yan Qing felt a little embarrassed and quickly scooped a bowl for himself. It tasted good indeed, but not as exaggerated as Yan's father said.

"Dad, have you been very busy recently? I see you look very tired every time you come home. How about I help you? I can make some for you at home. It's a losing business to leave a strong laborer unused."

"I still need you. There are so many people in the company, and they're all eating for free if I support them! I'll be thankful that you stay at home and behave yourself. Learn to cook, plant flowers, and wait until you figure it out before going to work. Anyway, the family company will be handed over to you sooner or later."

Yan Qing was just talking about it. The most important thing was that she wanted to know about Mr. Sun. Nothing happened today, and she didn't know any news at home, so she was still a little worried.

Mr. Sun is a veteran of the company and Father Yan trusts him very much. She felt bad when she saw Father Yan looking so lonely yesterday.

"Okay then, you have to tell me what happened in the company, right? Don't hide it from me, I can see it."

"Why, I don't want to say it, but you still force me? You think you can buy me off with a bowl of soup?"

Having said that, Yan Qing walked forward, snatched the soup that Yan's father was drinking, and looked at him seriously.

"Hey! You're so rebellious. What? Do you want to stay at home for a few more days?"

"I'm already grown up. Don't treat me like a child anymore. Do you really think I can't see it? Something must have happened at the company. You left me at home. I can't help at all, and I'm worried too."

Father Yan listened to Yan Qing's words with a dim look in his eyes, but still said nothing.

"I'll let you off this time. Hurry and give me the bowl. Do you have any manners?"

"dad!"

The good atmosphere suddenly froze. The people around gradually left, and only Yan's father and Yan Qing were left in the kitchen. Neither of them bowed their heads and was extremely stubborn.

"Drink more soup to nourish your brain."

"You should drink more! Looking at what you did, it doesn't seem like something you could do with a brain."

After hearing this, Yan Qing picked up his soup with resentment, took a big sip, and finished the whole bowl in one gulp.

Father Yan, who was watching from the side, frowned, a rare look of disgust on his face.

"Look at what you've become. Who would want you like this? You just drink the soup. How can this be? I've taught you for so many years, and this is all you've become."

"Even if someone wants me, he doesn't mind at all and will even scoop me another bowl!"

In response, Yan's father lowered his head to eat and didn't want to pay attention to Yan Qing.

“Who would believe that?”

“Someone wants it!”

Then, the father and daughter ate by themselves without speaking again.

While waiting for the meal to finish, the two of them sat in the living room at the same time, but no one spoke, as if they were waiting for something.

After a while, Yan's father's phone rang.

The attention of both people was diverted at the same time. Although Yan Qing was still watching TV, he kept glancing in the direction of Yan's father.

"What's wrong?"

After hearing what Yan's father said, the TV was turned off the next second.

Father Yan glanced at Yan Qing lightly without saying anything.

"I know about this matter. Don't make it public for now. Wait and see how the other party explains it tomorrow. As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it. Just continue to investigate what I told you to do."

The other party seemed to say something again, and then Yan's father hung up the phone.

"Something's going on with the Gu family again. It's a good thing I didn't let you marry into their family."

In fact, Yan Qing got married, but she didn't dare tell anyone about this. After all, Yan's final fate was very miserable, and she was miserable too.

"Gu Mingche is an ungrateful person. His whole family is no good. I was really blind before."

Father Yan glanced at Yan Qing and said nothing, but his expression relaxed a lot.

"You... forget it. Gu's invested a lot of money this time, and I'm afraid they won't stop until they break us. Don't worry about the company. We have found a solution."

"So, have you found the traitor in the company?"

Father Yan felt comforted that Yan Qing could think of this.

"Um."

Yan's father didn't want to tell Yan Qing any further. This was not a good thing. When Yan Qing returned, he would reorganize the company.

Yan Qing didn't know what her father was thinking, but she was still a little worried. After all, she knew nothing about Mr. Sun's affairs.

If this was really the person Yan Qing trusted the most, he couldn't imagine how Yan's father would deal with this matter.

"Is it someone I know?"

"You don't need to know. Don't answer anyone's calls recently. If someone comes to your house during the day, don't go out. Go directly to Uncle Li and ask them to kick them out."

Father Yan didn't want to talk about this anymore and went upstairs directly without giving Yan Qing a chance to ask.

Yan Qing, who stayed behind, felt that the development of things might be somewhat beyond her expectations, and she had to think of a way.

After all, today Father Yan still gave her the opportunity to understand, instead of forbidding her to know anything.

From what Mr. Yan said, I'm afraid there will be guests visiting tomorrow.
