Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Are the Two of Them Together Now?

After leaving Yanhuang Group, Song Zhicheng and Zhu Haoming kept their faces straight. Knowing his own guilt, Zhu Haoming didn’t dare to upset his father-in-law.

Upon returning to the Song Family, the two each went to their respective offices.

Song Zhicheng had just sat down when the phone began to ring.

He looked at the caller and answered the call.

"Jun Wei, Yan Han is not easy to handle!"

...

On Tuesday, Zhu Qianying flew from L City to another city to meet up with Cheng Ye.

Chen Jing took advantage of her daughter and grandson’s seaside vacation, accompanied by Yan Family’s bodyguards, to visit Xiao Yu in R City for two days.

Her in-law Le Tong heard that her private restaurant was about to open, so she introduced a friend to Chen Jing, suggesting that Chen Jing could learn from him.

Le Tong’s friend was Luo Yifan, the owner of a national chain of restaurants.

Chen Jing hit it off with the nationally renowned restaurateur, picking up numerous business tips from him.

Therefore, after returning from R City, Chen Jing began to personally arrange the specific matters related to the opening of the shop.

Young Master Yan received a call from Ji Huan, saying that he needed his help with some things.

Young Master Yan was perplexed, wondering what could make the Second Young Master Ji so solemn and serious.

Upon opening the email, it turned out to be the promotional strategies for the opening period of the "Quiet Private Restaurant," run by his mother-in-law.

"Ji Huan, did you help my mother with these?"

"Brother Yan, these were done by mother herself! She asked me to help her review them and give some advice, then handle the promotional matters. But you know, I’m spending all my time with Xiao Yu these days, how can I just leave her and run off to L City?"

As expected, the Second Young Master Ji still loved to play tricks as before, clearly helping Young Master Yan, but insisting on showing off his affection to stimulate him.

"Later, I thought about it that you’re also a son-in-law to my mother. It wouldn’t be inappropriate for you to handle this."

Young Master Yan understood that Ji Huan was helping him, "Alright, you take good care of Xiao Yu, I’ll handle the matters of mother’s shop."

Since Ji Huan had given him the opportunity to shine, he certainly couldn’t waste it.

Thus, after hanging up the phone, Young Master Yan seriously reviewed the plan that Ji Huan had sent, pondered for a moment, grabbed his bag, and stood up.

On his way out, he ran into Qin Xiu, who looked surprised, "Master, you don’t have any trips scheduled for today."

Young Master Yan nodded, "I know, contact me by phone if there’s anything for me this afternoon."

Watching his boss leave in such a hurried manner, Qin Xiu thought to himself, ’Could it be that the master is going on a date with Ying Zi?’ His demeanor sure indicated that!

The sudden appearance of Young Master Yan at the "Quiet Private Restaurant" gave Chen Jing a great shock.

She hurriedly served a bowl of newly-made dessert on the table behind him.

"Young Master Yan, why are you here? Did you pass by here while on business?"

Chen Jing was no longer as frightened of Young Master Yan as before. Even if they didn’t have much to talk about, she could still engage in idle chatter.

"Mother, I came to see if there’s anything you need my help with."

Yesterday, Young Master Yan had heard from his own mother that his mother-in-law had picked a date to open the shop. He was thinking about calling and asking if she needed any help, when he received Ji Huan’s call.

However, it was quite apparent that although they were both sons-in-law, Chen Jing’s attitude towards Ji Huan and Young Master Yan were worlds apart.

"There’s nothing much, everything is more or less arranged—I’m just waiting to open!"

Chen Jing didn’t mention a word about the things listed in the plan.

Young Master Yan felt somewhat pained but felt helpless.

"Mother, aren’t you planning to do any promotions for the restaurant opening?"

Young Master Yan naturally couldn’t say that Ji Huan had sent him the plan. He wouldn’t engage in the act of betraying his brother.

Moreover, he was still hoping for Ji Huan to say more good things about him in the future, to gradually get closer to a high score in the eyes of his mother-in-law and wife.

Chen Jing hesitated at first but didn’t think it was a big deal. Seeing Young Master Yan eating the dessert she had placed on the table, for some reason, what she originally didn’t plan to tell him slipped out.

Young Master Yan pretended to be completely unaware. After quietly listening to Chen Jing’s words, he thought for a moment, then cautiously said.

"Mother, your ideas are excellent. Let’s proceed as you planned. I see absolutely no problem with that."

Chen Jing was very pleased. After all, receiving confirmation and praise from such an influential figure like Young Master Yan, even if there were some flattery involved, it still made her happy.

"Really? I was worried that my ideas might not be practical!"

"Not at all, I think they’re pretty good. Have you found a company for the promotion? Our company has worked with many similar partners. Why don’t I follow up on this?"

Chen Jing was even more surprised.

"Young Master Yan, how could I trouble you like that?"

Sure enough, Young Master Yan and Ji Huan, held different positions in Chen Jing’s mind.

Ji Huan was her son-in-law, he was her own, her younger generation—there was nothing wrong with asking him for help.

But Young Master Yan, although legally, he was also her son-in-law, she knew very well that these two sons-in-law were different.

And she, she had never treated him as one of her own.

How could she consider such a wealthy young master as her own? Shouldn’t she measure her own worth first?

"There is nothing to worry about, mother. You’re the chief, and preparing the dishes for the opening is your main concern. Leave all the other miscellaneous things to me."

Young Master Yan was almost ready to punch his chest as a guarantee that he could excellently complete the task.

Chen Jing was still hesitating, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Young Master Yan, you keep an eye on the shop for me. I’ll check if the brine in the kitchen is ready."

Chen Jing hurried back to the kitchen, closed the door, picked up her phone and dialed a number.

"Mother, what is it?"

It turns out she was making a call to her eldest daughter Zhu Qianying who was on a business trip.

Young Master Yan’s willingness to help handle the miscellaneous tasks was the best thing for her. After all, in L City, no one was more efficient and convenient than Young Master Yan.

However, she didn’t want to cause any more trouble for her elder daughter.

Young Master Yan was willing to help, which was indeed a good thing, but the favor she owed would still have to be paid back by her daughter in the end, wouldn’t it?

Chen Jing then relayed the story to Zhu Qianying over the phone. Zhu Qianying, on the other end of the phone, was silent for a while before she responded.

"Mother, since Young Master Yan has offered, let him handle those things. Xiao Yu has a bit of a cold recently, and Ji Huan is busy taking care of Xiao Yu. Don’t trouble him with this kind of thing."

Chen Jing was even more surprised. Could it be that during the few days when she went to R City, something happened between her daughter and Young Master Yan? Had they become a couple?

"Ying’er, what you said is true, but considering the situation between you and Young Master Yan, if I let him help, won’t you be the one to repay the favor in the end?"
