Chapter 516: Chapter 516: The High Cost of a Change of Heart
The next day when Zhu Qianying woke up, Eldest Young Master Yan had already left with the baby boy. Zhu Qianying, who had slept soundly through the night, had recovered quite a lot, both mentally and physically.
There was a note left on the dining table by Eldest Young Master Yan, reminding her that breakfast was warming in the pot and to remember to eat before going to work.
Of course, the breakfast was not made by Young Master Yan himself. It must have been made by the chef from the Yan Family and undoubtedly sent over by the rhetorically charming Eldest Young Master Yan, who had Uncle Hai personally deliver it.
However, the breakfast was indeed healthier, more nutritious, and tastier than what you could buy outside.
Although, it fell a bit short compared to her mother’s cooking. But her mother has been really busy lately, and Zhu Qianying didn’t want her mother to work too hard. So for a while now, Zhu Qianying has been making breakfast.
Zhu Qianying finished breakfast, packed up all the luggage for their trip to the seaside villa that evening, and then sent a message to Young Master Yan.
"Breakfast eaten. I’m going to the jewelry store for work now, and I’ve packed the luggage and left it in our bedroom. You can pick up the baby boy first tonight, and then we’ll meet at home."
"OK!"
Yougn Master Yan sent such a brief reply, means he was busy.
Zhu Qianying thought that because Yan was busy, the evening’s schedule might change.
However, she had no idea that she would receive a call from Young Master Yan just after she had finished lunch at the jewelry store, asking her to go to Yanhuang as soon as possible.
When she rushed to Yanhuang fearing something big had happened, she was a little bewildered when she found Lawyer Su in Young Master Yan’s office.
"Lawyer Su, we meet again!" Though she didn’t understand the situation at hand, she still politely shook hands with Lawyer Su.
"Good day, Madam Yan," said the lawyer.
After exchanging greetings with Zhu Qianying, Lawyer Su pushed a stack of files towards Zhu Qianying.
"Madam Yan, these are documents showing all the properties and assets registered under Young Master Yan’s name. The first part shows copies of equity proof, property ownership, and other immovable property. The paperwork underneath is the proof of Young Master Yan’s cash assets in various banks. Please review and confirm these documents, and if everything is accurate, you can sign this document stating that these are the assets owned by both of you."
Zhu Qianying looked at Lawyer Su and Young Master Yan, as if she didn’t understand.
"Madam Yan, is there something you don’t understand?"
Zhu Qianying shook her head, "I understand. However, why are you showing me these? Why should I sign?"
Young Master Yan, who until then had been sitting quietly next to her, patted her head and chuckled.
"Why all these questions? You’re my wife. Only by knowing how much wealth I possess can you manage it better. You’ve heard the saying that rich men can’t be trusted, right? So like all other women, you should keep a tighter hold on your husband. Therefore, from today onwards, you should start controlling our shared finances."
Zhu Qianying’s mind was spinning. She had heard of men fighting head over heels to ensure their rights within a relationship, but she had never heard of a man tying his own hands and asking his wife to keep a close eye on him.
Eldest Young Master Yan was definitely a unique and peculiar character.
"Young Master Yan, are you sure you want me to tightly control your finances?" Zhu Qianying asked, half-believing him and suspecting that there was a trick hidden in his words.
Yougn Master Yan nodded without any hesitation, "Absolutely! Also, please make sure to check everything thoroughly and sign the documents. That way, I won’t dare to have an affair because, it would be too costly for me if I did!"
Zhu Qianying was amused by Eldest Young Master Yan. Only he would dare say such things about setting himself up.
Do you really think everyone else is a fool? If you want to show off your relationship or prove your loyalty, can’t you find another way?
Zhu Qianying didn’t even bother flipping through the equity or property proofs, she signed the document confirming the jointly owned assets with haste.
Only after Lawyer Su had left with the files did Zhu Qianying glare at Young Master Yan.
"Yan Han, you could have just told me this privately, was there really a need to involve Lawyer Su?"
Zhu Qianying was embarrassed. The smile on Lawyer Su’s face had been crystal clear throughout the meeting!
"Of course there was a need. Such matters are more reliable when handled by a lawyer. As for the large pile of documents from earlier, you didn’t really go through them. So, I’ve asked Lawyer Su to send those documents to your mailbox. You can take your time to study them when you’re free."
Zhu Qianying rolled her eyes at him, "Of course. Now, when I can’t sleep, I can open my computer and slowly count the funds in your bank accounts. I bet I’ll fall asleep before I finish counting."
Yougn Master Yan leaned in and nibbled her ear, "Phoenix, don’t worry, I won’t let you have any sleepless nights!"
Zhu Qianying kicked him and said with a stern face, "Slacking off during working hours, don’t you want a job anymore?"
Young Master Yan immediately sat up straight and said, "I wouldn’t dare! The boss lady’s lessons are quite enlightening!"
After fooling around for a while in the office, Young Master Yan’s phone kept ringing. Seeing this, Zhu Qianying got up to leave.
"Phoenix, how about waiting with me to pick up our son?"
Zhu Qianying shook her head, "No, I have an appointment with Cheng Ye in the afternoon to visit the headquarters. It’s almost time, I’ll have the driver take me there. We can meet up after work."
Since it concerned work, Young Master Yan couldn’t interfere. After Zhu Qianying left, Qin Xiu rushed in.
"Young Master, Kai Zi was looking for you earlier while you didn’t pick up the phone."
Yougn Master Yan responded with an "Um". "What’s going on?"
The Young Master Yan who was facing Zhu Qianying just now and the one who was facing Qin Xiu were like two different people.
Fortunately, Qin Xiu didn’t dare to barge in at that time, otherwise, he would have been shocked to see Young Master Yan acting so submissive in front of Zhu Qianying. He probably would have been speechless.
"There seems to be new developments in Ying Zi’s car accident case!"
"Go on!" Young Master Yan’s finally took his eyes off the file pile.
"Kai Zi says that the grandfather of the taxi driver involved in the accident used to be the Zhu Family’s driver many years ago. Although we can’t confirm any connection between the two, Kai Zi said he will continue investigating."
Yougn Master Yan squinted his eyes as if contemplating something. Qin Xiu knew him too well, so he stood quietly waiting for him to speak.
"What did the tax department say?"
The investigation into the accounts of the Mingxuan Group is still ongoing. Because there are numerous accounts and many related factors, the investigation has taken quite a long time.
If compared, this internal investigation of the tax department probably has caused considerably more tangible damage to Mingxuan Group than the previous illegal gathering issue.
