Chapter 456: Chapter 456: Itching for a Scolding

"Alright!"

Eldest Young Master Yan quickly agreed, only to quickly change the subject. "When are you coming back?"

Obviously, Zhu Qianying seemed to be taken aback on the other end of the phone, then obediently replied, "The day after tomorrow at noon!"

"Yep, send me the flight number later. I’ll pick you up!"

"No need!" Zhu Qianying refused resolutely.

"Stop talking nonsense! Be simple, so I won’t have to look it up." Young Master Yan’s overbearing personality occasionally popped out uncontrollably.

Zhu Qianying fell silent again, in the end, she obediently compromised.

"I’ve sent it to you! If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up!"

The two said goodbye to each other. Although the conversation was devoid of any sweet words, after hanging up, Young Master Yan felt the depression that had been weighing on his heart was gone. At this moment, he felt incredibly relaxed.

Two days later, in the evening, when Zhu Qianying returned to L City a few hours later than expected due to a delay, she genuinely thought Young Master Yan, who was picking her up, would be upset.

Unexpectedly, Young Master Yan was smiling pleasantly as he took her bags, even taking her backpack.

"Are we going home for dinner or what?"

By this time, it was already half an hour past his usual dinner time.

Zhu Qianying turned her head to look at Cheng Ye who was with her, "I agreed to have dinner with Cheng Ye..." She thought that Young Master Yan surely wouldn’t wait for her, because before taking off, she had sent him a message, telling him that she wouldn’t arrive in L City until after seven.

She didn’t expect him to wait, the moment she got off the plane and turned on her phone she received his message.

Saying, he’s not in a hurry!

Having heard Zhu Qianying’s reply, Young Master Yan’s mood showed no signs of displeasure but continued to be cheerful.

"Alright, then what do you guys want to eat? I’ll have the driver reserve a table."

Zhu Qianying was somewhat puzzled, so she looked at Cheng Ye and asked again.

"Cheng Ye, what do you feel like eating?"

Cheng Ye, whose eyes were nearly blinded by Young Master Yan’s smile, was in particularly low spirits, yet he didn’t display this in front of Zhu Qianying.

"Did Aunt Chen Jing open her private restaurant yet?"

Cheng Ye naturally knew about Chen Jing’s plans to open a private restaurant, but he wasn’t sure about the exact opening date, and Zhu Qianying hadn’t mentioned it to him either.

"You’re planning to support my mom’s business, aren’t you? Unfortunately, it’s not open yet!"

"I haven’t eaten Aunt Jing’s cooking for a while, I miss it."

In the past, Cheng Ye used to visit Zhu Qianying’s house anywhere from two to four times a month, he and Chen Jing were quite acquainted.

His humble and polite demeanor once won Chen Jing’s heart.

Even for a period of time, Chen Jing considered Cheng Ye as a potential future son-in-law, until later when Zhu Qianying clarified with Chen Jing that she had no feelings for Cheng Ye besides friendship and professional relations, then did Chen Jing’s attitude towards Cheng Ye slightly cool down.

Cheng Ye could of course feel the clear change.

However, he was helpless about it.

"My mother-in-law’s restaurant officially opens next Saturday, and you’re welcome to visit then!"

Young Master Yan’s words carried a sense of gloating, as her official son-in-law, he could taste the superb cooking anytime he wanted.

On the other hand, Cheng Ye could only eat it if he, as a customer, visited the private restaurant.

The sense of superiority brought about by this huge difference made Young Master Yan’s mood even more elevated.

Cheng Ye found Young Master Yan’s face especially annoying. Not wanting to show his feelings, he brooded over the upcoming dinner where he would have to bear with this face, which made him increasingly upset, so he said.

"In that case, let’s reschedule our dinner, I’ll take a taxi back to the jewelry store."

Cheng Ye’s suggestion was accepted by Zhu Qianying without any objections, no one wanted to face the awkward situation of a three-person dinner.

However, Young Master Yan was a bit disappointed, he had planned to flaunt his affection in front of Cheng Ye.

The three said goodbye at the airport, Zhu Qianying and Young Master Yan got into a car, while Cheng Ye flagged a taxi back to the jewelry store.

"Young Master Yan, you’ve been waiting at the airport for several hours?"

Zhu Qianying’s original flight was at noon, she was supposed to land in L City at three. But she didn’t depart until three, she had thought that Young Master Yan had left out of anger long ago. After all, Young Master Yan’s time was so precious.

Young Master Yan nodded, "Actually, it wasn’t a big deal. I was dealing with office work in the VIP lounge, I just didn’t want to run around."

Such practicality from Young Master Yan really wasn’t something Zhu Qianying was used to.

"You worked hard!" she said courteously.

Young Master Yan squinted at her. Zhu Qianying had a faint feeling something was not right, and then she heard him saying, "I am indeed a little tired, give me a massage!"

Zhu Qianying gave a start, stunned for a moment.

"Massage? Massage where? If he says anything inappropriate, I’ll definitely slap him!"

Seeing her face change various expressions, Young Master Yan laughed, slightly turned, revealed his back to her, and then shrugged his shoulders towards her.

"The VIP lounge was great, but the sofa wasn’t very comfortable, too soft. After typing for an afternoon with my hands suspended, my shoulders are terribly sore."

Alright, this seems to be her fault!

Though Zhu Qianying felt there was a hint of Young Master Yan acting like a spoiled child, she didn’t expose him, she pushed her backpack backwards, extended her hand towards his broad shoulders.

When her fingers touched the tightly strung muscles on his shoulders, she was unsure whether he was pretending to be spoiled anymore.

Because, this was clearly a symptom of extreme fatigue.

"Young Master Yan, have you been working overtime again these past few days?"

Was this man really willing to give up his life? Constant overtime, his iron body would eventually break down!

"Not really..."

Young Master Yan slightly turned his head to look at her, even though her tone was reproachful, he was inexplicably happy, the more he looked at her scowling face, the more he found it pleasing.

Indeed, Eldest Young Master Yan is a masochist who gets itchy when he’s not yelled at in a day!

Seeing him refusing to tell the truth, Zhu Qianying didn’t bother probing further, snorted through her nose, "Keep acting!", her hand exerting slightly more force in response.

Her massage technique was far from proficient, in fact, it wasn’t as comfortable or skilled as the little boy’s.

Sometimes exerting too much force sometimes too little, not to mention being unable to locate the correct spots.

But Young Master Yan truly felt her fingers were magical, making him feel numb wherever she touched, wherever she massaged was relieved.

It seemed that massage isn’t always about technique, but psychological suggestion.

"Ying’er, your technique is really good!" This compliment was genuinely sincere.

Zhu Qianying, being self-aware, after all, she hardly ever took care of people like this.

"Young Master Yan, your psychological quality is truly admirable!"

Even though this was an ironic comment, Young Master Yan took it as a compliment.

"Isn’t it? I think so too."
