Chapter 451: Chapter 451: There’s Nothing Between Cheng Ye and Me

Shao Shan and Zhu Qianying went to the garden to find their children, leaving Yan Shao and Qin Xiu alone in the big house, idly chatting over tea.

These two men who had been working partners for over a decade naturally ended up discussing work-related matters.

The conversation about work organically brought up another topic.

"Sir, you let lawyer Su prepare a transfer agreement?"

Yan Shao nodded, "Yes!"

"Why? I thought you’d want to slap Zhu Junwei in the face in Ying Zi’s name!"

"Forget it. Ying’er doesn’t want to get involved with the Zhu family now, I won’t force her. She can do whatever she enjoys."

Originally, under Yan Shao’s grand plan, he was intended to take over the Mingxuan company in the name of Zhu Qianying once the company suffered.

Then, this would be a gift to Zhu Qianying.

As for the assimilation of the shares, Yan Shao’s side had been continuously working on it secretly.

However, Yan Shao wanted to transfer the Mingxuan shares he had to his son, which contradicted the original intention.

Qin Xiu was full of questions and wanted to ask but understood that some things were not his place to question.

Since his sir had decided to do so, inevitably there were reasons. Of course, there were more reasons than what he stated.

As for the other reasons, Qin Xiu, even if he racked his brain, couldn’t figure them out. Eventually, he stopped pondering about it and naturally moved the topic elsewhere.

...

Perhaps it was psychological, but the seafood bought from the market and was simply prepared by Chef Zhu, either steamed or stir-fried, tasted exceptionally fresh and delicious.

When Zhu Qianying was buying, Yan Shao murmured behind her, wondering if it was too much.

However, during the meal, all the fish, shrimp, and crab that were bought from the market were devoured completely.

After a full meal, the little foodie, their son, leaned back in his chair, patting his belly and clamoring.

"Mommy, next time we come, let’s go to the market and buy seafood again!"

His suggestion was unanimously supported by Qin Xiu’s couple and his two gluttonous kittens, and Yan Shao, although he loved Zhu Qianying, was still wavering before the delicious food for a while. Seeing Zhu Qianying nod in agreement with a smile, his heart was filled with joy for a while.

Of course, his joy was primarily due to her agreeing to another visit.

Everyone helped to clean up the dishes and utensils into the kitchen, and Yan Shao had long forgotten about the son’s promise to wash the dishes at noon.

But the little boy did not forget. After he had a full meal, he rested in his chair for a while, and then really took a small stool and ran into the kitchen to take the initiative to wash the dishes.

Zhu Qianying glanced at the bowls and dishes piled up on the kitchen counter, "Do you want mommy to wash with you?"

The unaware Shao Shan also hurriedly said, "Son, you and your sister go play. Aunt Shan will do the dishwashing. It was agreed, your mommy is responsible for cooking, and I am responsible for washing."

However, the little sir was adamant, "Aunt Shan, this is what I promised my mommy, and besides, you are a guest, how can we let you do the dishes!"

The three people in the kitchen were debating over who should do the dishes when Yan Shao walked in, worried for his son. He scooped him up around his waist.

"Everyone sit down, and property management will send a nanny to clean up."

As soon as Yan Shao’s words fell, the doorbell rang.

In the end, the nanny washed the dishes piled up like a small mountain, and the son’s promise was fulfilled in the evening.

After dinner, the "family of three" had their meal, and the little Lord washed the dishes. Zhu Qianying and Yan Shao sat on the terrace outside the dining room, enjoying tea and eating fruit.

"Is it really okay for our son to do this?" Yan Shao was still concerned about his son.

Being afraid that he would soften, Zhu Qianying pulled him to the terrace to watch the sunset.

"Don’t worry, he’s not washing for the first time. It’s just a few bowls." They ate too much at noon, so she only cooked a bowl of beef noodles for each person in the evening.

Zhu Qianying leaned on the railing, biting her apple noisily, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of her and couldn’t help but sigh.

"Rich people have it good!"

It was dusk, the setting sun tinted the horizon and surface of the sea red, merging sea and sky into one.

Yan Shao watched her, the setting sun casting a halo over her charming figure. His gaze deepened.

He wanted to say that his money was actually hers too.

But reason told him that the timing wasn’t right.

"Do you want to stay here for a few days?"

He proposed this yesterday.

If she wanted to stay for a few days, he and their son would stay too. In the morning, he would take their son to school on his way to work. In the evening, he would pick him up and come back together, which was quite convenient.

Thinking like this, Yan Shao felt that he and Qin Xiu weren’t much different.

However, his beautiful wish was crushed quickly.

"No, I will go back with you guys!"

Zhu Qianying indeed liked this place very much, but precisely because she liked it, she dared not indulge herself excessively here.

She had agreed to reconsider their relationship and to exclude all external factors this time around.

So, she couldn’t let too many external factors interfere with her decision.

" I have to go on a business trip next Tuesday. Please take care of our son for a few days."

Cheng Ye had been back in the country for a couple of days, and he mentioned on the phone that he wanted Zhu Qianying to accompany him to various branch visits to get a feel for the sales situation, so as to properly adjust this year’s sales strategy.

This was a normal job, Zhu Qianying couldn’t refuse. Moreover, she could use this opportunity to spend some time apart from Yan Shao.

"Business trip? I haven’t heard you mention this?"

Yan Shao, who was originally lounging on a lounger, immediately got up at Zhu Qianying’s words. He walked over to her, leaned on the railing like she was, and looked at her intently.

"Yeah, Cheng Ye has been back for a few days. He wants me to accompany him to various branches to understand the sales environment."

"You’re a designer. Sales aren’t your responsibility, are they?"

Now, Yan Shao just wanted to see Zhu Qianying every day, 24/7, especially when there would be Cheng Ye accompanying her on her business trip. This made him a little uncomfortable.

Of course, Zhu Qianying sensed the jealousy in the air. But perhaps because she was in a good mood, she uncommonly didn’t flare up. Instead, she explained calmly.

"Your designers, certainly cannot work in their own little bubble. They also need to understand the sales situation and adjust their design thinking according to market demand. Similarly, I’m the same."

Zhu Qianying’s words left Yan Shao speechless.

At this moment, he could only regret that he and she were only so-called contract spouses. He couldn’t even make demands of her verbally.

His silence made Zhu Qianying feel a slight sense of guilt. In the afterglow of the setting sun, she glanced at him and saw his handsome side profile with slightly furrowed brows. Usually always self-confident, he now gave off a hint of melancholy.

Not knowing whether out of pity or something else, Zhu Qianying then said, "Don’t worry, there’s nothing between Cheng Ye and me."
