Just as I was thinking about it, the donuts were ready and brought over by the maid. Yun Qing had a big breakfast and couldn't eat any snacks. Ye Ziyu and Ye Ziru didn't seem to like sweets very much, only He Tiantian ate happily. "This donut is so delicious, how was it made? It's different from the ones I've eaten before," He Tan said while eating. Seeing her eat so deliciously, Ye Zi Rui smiled and said, "Eat slowly, we'll be having lunch soon, you can't just eat sweets." "I don't like the lunch at home," He TanTan said, hugging the box filled with doughnuts tightly, "Auntie Xiaonuan's cooking is still the best." An Xiaonuan's cooking skills are widely recognized as good. Perhaps they aren't that outstanding, but her dishes always manage to give people a taste of home. When she was little, He Tiantian often had dinner at An Xiaonuan's house. Now that An Xiaonuan is on vacation, He Tiantian can't eat those delicious foods and feels a little bit hungry. "I really want to eat Xiao Nuan Auntie's red-braised pork ribs, and steamed perch..." He TanTan said while eating a donut. Yun Qingxi heard this and her eyebrows twitched slightly. It's probably just a coincidence, but these two dishes are exactly what she does best. Ye Ziyu's gaze fell on her: "How about you, do you like it too?" Seeing the clear sky, Yun Qing couldn't help but feel that this person was too terrifying. Even her slight expressions hadn't escaped his eyes. "Well, it's decent. These two dishes are my specialties," Yun Qingxi simply told the truth. This time, Ye Ziyu's eyebrows moved slightly: "Signature dish?" Yun Qing glanced at him and said, “People like me who are poor usually cook for themselves.” She wasn't really poor, but compared to the Ye family, her earnings were insignificant. “What’s this,” He TanTan pulled her hand, “Little Warm Auntie makes the food herself, cooking by oneself tastes more fragrant… XiXi, if you have time, can you cook for me? I can help you, wash vegetables, cut vegetables and so on.” Ge Tiantian didn't have the slightest bit of a spoiled princess attitude, Yun Qingxi really liked her and nodded without hesitation: "Okay, this is simple." As they were talking, the kitchen had already finished cooking the meal. The maid served up the dishes one by one. There was indeed braised pork ribs and steamed sea bass, but He TanTan only took two bites before stopping: "This isn't the taste Xiaonuan Auntie would make." Yun Qing xi also tasted it and found the braised pork ribs too greasy and heavy, while the steamed perch lacked oil and ginger shreds, failing to suppress its faint fishy smell. "Next time, I'll cook for you." she comforted He Tiantian. He TanTan was indeed easily coaxed. Hearing this, she narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Alright, then I'll trouble you next time." Girls are very easy to become friends with each other, especially He TanTan whose mind is so innocent and harmless. After dinner, He TanTan led YunQingXi for a walk in the greenhouse at the back of the villa to aid digestion. Ye ZiYu gave a glance, and immediately a servant followed them. Ye Zi Rui's good-looking brows furrowed slightly: "Yu, you seem a bit wary of this girl named Yun Qing Xi?" "Her address on her ID card is fake, and there are a lot of fabrications in her resume as well," Ye Ziyu said. Yezi Rui wasn't a fool; he knew his younger brother wouldn't shoot without aim. "You suspect... she has ulterior motives?" Ye Ziyu neither nodded nor shook his head: "I can't say for now. If she has ulterior motives, I won't be lenient." Ye Zi Rui didn't doubt his words at all. The two brothers grew up together. Yu's personality was crystal clear to him; he was cold and ruthless, just like his father. Ye Zi Rui knew that when he was little, Ye Zi Yu had also learned piano and violin for a period of time. His talent was not inferior to his own. It's just that the family needed someone to inherit the family business, and his temperament was obviously not suitable to be that heir. Perhaps for this reason, Yu gave up continuing his music studies and turned to learning the ways of commerce from his father. It is precisely because of Yu, this younger brother of mine, who took on all the responsibilities of the family that I was able to devote myself wholeheartedly to music studies and achieve what I have today. The two brothers each had their own strengths and their relationship was close from childhood to adulthood, with no cracks whatsoever. "Yu, how's things going at the company lately?" Ye Ziru asked with concern. Although he knew this concern was somewhat redundant, Long Cheng had never encountered a problem that Ye Ziyu couldn't solve. This applied to both his business affairs and his personal life. As expected, Ye Ziyu said, "What could possibly be difficult for me?" Ye Zi Rui nodded: "That's good. By the way, in a few months, when the weather is nice, I plan to propose to Tian Tian." Night Zi Yu's face changed slightly: "What?" Ye Zi Rui repeated, "In a few months, I plan to propose to Tiantian." "With that, he sighed softly: 'I know this will make Grandma pressure you to find a girlfriend soon, but Sweetheart and I have been engaged for so long. I plan to give her a definite future as soon as possible.' " The grandmother both of them spoke about was Ning Wanjuan. This grandmother, Ning Wanyuan, had always been an open-minded person. However, as she grew older, her temperament changed somewhat. Lately, all she desired was to hold her great-grandchild soon. She hoped Ye Ziru would quickly marry He Tiantian, and she also wished Ye Ziyu would find a suitable girl and get married as soon as possible. It goes without saying that after Night Zi Rui's marriage, the pressure on Night Zi Yu to get married will only intensify. The president of the esteemed Xuan Mei Group, facing pressure to get married? This news would probably have even the most seasoned paparazzi scoffing! If it were someone else, Ye Ziyu would have completely disregarded them. But this was his grandmother. My grandmother's health has declined significantly. Due to heart problems, she has been hospitalized twice in a row and has practically become a regular at the hospital. Before I came back, I went to the hospital. My grandmother really wanted to see you." Ye Zi Rui said. Ye Ziyu nodded: “I will go there tonight.” At this time, Yunqing Xi and He Tiantian had already returned from the flower house. Yunqing Xi was in front, and He Tiantian was behind. He TanTan held a white lily of the valley and a pink delphinium in her hands. After thinking for a moment, she secretly inserted the delphinium into YunQingXi's hair at the front. A sprig of gentian had been added to her ponytail. Yun Qingxi hadn't noticed, but when she saw Ye Ziyue staring at her with a strange look, she couldn't help rolling her eyes and asking, "What are you looking at?" Night Zi Rui: "..." Throughout the entire Dragon City, she was probably the only girl who dared to speak to Yu like that. This girl is definitely different from the other girls who usually swarm around Yu... Ye Ziyu's gaze fell on Yun Qingxi's head, and he said expressionlessly, "Very ugly." Yun Qingxi: “…” She followed the gaze of the glacier and, only then, realized she had a flower tucked into her ponytail at some point. Upon taking another look, Yun Qing immediately knew who was behind this: “Tian Tian!” Hehehe, Tiantian stuck her tongue out and ran away laughing, looking mischievously smug. Yún Qíng xī: “!!!” She wanted to pick ten big red roses to make a wreath and force He TanTan to wear it on her head! Watching the two of them playing and wrestling, Ye Zi Rui smiled and shook his head: "This Miss Yun is really interesting. Tiantian hasn't met such a friend in a long time." He could see that Yun Qingxi wasn't a scheming woman. Before that, most of the women who surrounded He TanTan were scheming and opportunistic. They tried to befriend He TanTan in order to curry favor with the Ye family and gain advantages for themselves. Girls like Yun Qingxi are truly rare. Firstly, Yun Qingxi came from an ordinary background and wasn't like those noble ladies who were easily caught up in disputes. Secondly, Yun Qingxi was a straightforward person who said whatever was on her mind. Even in front of Ye Ziyu, this formidable figure, she remained so "unreserved." Her bright and cheerful personality was very infectious. Even Ye Zi Rui, whom he had only just met today, couldn't help but admire the girl. At least it's not something I hate. "You said before that her resume was fake, maybe you're being paranoid. Could this be a misunderstanding?" Ye Zi Rui asked seriously. |
