Chapter 522: Chapter 522: There’s Nothing Good to Talk About with You

Eldest Young Master Yan did not return to Zhu Qianying’s apartment that night.

However, he did call her after eleven o’clock, reminding her to go to bed soon.

At that point, Zhu Qianying was fine-tuning her designs for the time being. She distractedly wrapped up her conversation with Eldest Young Master Yan. After hanging up the phone, she continued her process.

Nevertheless, she finally lay down at midnight under the urging of Chen Jing.

"Ying’er, if you’re not sleeping, I can’t sleep. Yan Han calls me every few minutes, just to ask if you’re asleep!" Chen Jing said, somewhat aggrieved.

How could Zhu Qianying not know that her mother and Eldest Young Master Yan were in cahoots?

But even though she knew, she couldn’t do anything about them. After all, both of these people were important to her.

In order not to worry them further, Zhu Qianying chose to compromise, obediently turning off her computer, brushing her teeth, and climbing into bed.

"Eldest Young Master, you win! I’m in bed now, goodnight!"

After sending her message, Zhu Qianying, almost unconsciously, held her mobile phone, waiting for his reply.

However, until her eyelids were fighting to stay open, she ultimately succumbed to sleep’s call and fell deeply asleep. She still hadn’t received a reply from Eldest Young Master Yan.

The reply from Eldest Young Master Yan was seen by Zhu Qianying only the next morning when she woke up. The reply had been sent around forty minutes after her message.

"Baby, good night, miss me!"

Zhu Qianying pursed her lips, "Miss you, my foot. I had a dreamless night and slept very well!"

Indeed, after opening their hearts to each other, this was the most peaceful and comfortable night Zhu Qianying had spent with Eldest Young Master Yan.

Because there was no one by her side bothering her, sleep was naturally better.

However, despite her complaints, Zhu Qianying was a little worried about Eldest Young Master Yan.

Sitting up, she returned a message.

"Big baby, good morning. I dreamt of you last night. Did you sleep at all?"

Speaking sweet words was not exclusive to men. Occasionally telling harmless lies to appease the other person was something Zhu Qianying didn’t feel was wrong.

This time, Eldest Young Master Yan responded immediately.

"Slept for over three hours, preparing for a meeting now, will call you at noon."

Zhu Qianying had to reply, "OK, I’ll wait for your call."

She knew he must have had an emergency or very important matter to rush back for, but since he didn’t say what it was, she didn’t ask.

She believed that if he could speak about it, he would.

That day was a Monday. Zhu Qianying sent baby boy to school with the driver before having the driver drop her off at the restaurant.

The restaurant didn’t open in the mornings, but her mother would arrive early to prepare. Then, operation would commence promptly at half-past ten.

Zhu Qianying came over at this time, not to help, but purely because she didn’t want to go home, as she had work at her jewelry store at 11 o’clock.

However, when she got out of the car and saw the woman standing at the entrance of the restaurant, she deeply regretted her laziness.

However, responding quickly, she turned to get back in the car. The woman had obviously noticed her. Before she could move, the woman had walked up to her.

"Zhu Qianying, let’s talk."

However, Zhu Qianying didn’t feel that she had anything to talk about with her. "Miss Yi, I’m sorry, but I don’t think we have anything to discuss."

Zhu Qianying was always confused by the way Yi Wei’s mind worked. Even if, many years ago, Eldest Young Master Yan truly liked her, that was in the past. Was it necessary to hold onto that?

Yes, Eldest Young Master Yan was outstanding, and to find a man as good as him might not be easy.

But, in Zhu Qianying’s view, a man who loves her was no worse than an outstanding one.

The driver of the Yan family, realizing the situation wasn’t right, hurriedly got out of the car and had already reached Zhu Qianying’s side.

"Ying’er, wait in the car. I’ll handle this."

"Alright, thank you, Brother Wang!"

Zhu Qianying swiftly moved behind the driver and quickly scrambled back into the car.

"Zhu Qianying, give Yan Han back to me!" Yi Wei shouted from her mouth, suddenly lunging out with all her might. Brother Wang was quick with his hands and eyes. He reached out and grabbed her. With a pull and a twist, he hoisted her onto his shoulder.

The furious Yi Wei struggled on Brother Wang’s shoulder, "Zhu Qianying..."

She wanted to say something else, but she was silenced by Brother Wang covering her mouth.

In the car, Zhu Qianying watched as Yi Wei was carried by Brother Wang to the other side of the street, and then stuffed her into a car parked there.

That car had often been parked at various positions on this street in the last while. It turns out, it was sent by Ke Kai to protect them in secret.

After Brother Wang had stuffed the person into the car, he took out his phone. Zhu Qianying guessed that he was calling Eldest Young Master Yan to report.

Sure enough, the moment Brother Wang, who was walking towards the car, ended the call, her phone in her bag rang.

"Ying’er, are you alright?"

From the other end of the phone, Eldest Young Master Yan’s anxious voice came through.

"I’m fine. She said just one sentence to me before Brother Wang carried her away."

Eldest Young Master Yan on the other end of the phone clearly let out a long sigh of relief.

"As long as you’re okay. Where are you going next?"

Zhu Qianying was a little hesitant now.

"Originally, I was planning to go back to the jewelry store. Should I go home now? Or maybe I should tell my mom to close the restaurant for the day?"

Even though her relationship with Eldest Young Master Yan had been established, Zhu Qianying still didn’t want to cause trouble for him.

Or more accurately, she didn’t want to put Brother Wang or the other bodyguards in danger because of her and her mother.

Eldest Young Master Yan paused for a moment, "For the jewelry store, please take a couple of days off if possible. As for your mother, she can continue business as usual. I just asked Brother Wang. Apparently, Yi Wei came alone, and she changed her appearance. Of course, the most important thing is that they were negligent. I’ll get them to step up their defenses."

Upon hearing Eldest Young Master Yan’s remarks, Zhu Qianying recalled her initial impression that something was odd about Yi Wei. It turns out, what Yi Wei was wearing resembled the commoners she would see in the marketplace, bearing no resemblance to the typically luxurious fashionista appearance.

"Okay. I’ll go accompany my mother in the restaurant while asking for a couple of days off from the jewelry store."

Honestly, she didn’t want to cause trouble for Cheng Ye either.

At eleven o’clock, the restaurant commenced operations as usual. Zhu Qianying made a point of noticing several cars parked around the restaurant. They were likely all temporary reinforcements sent by Ke Kai.

Adding it up, the restaurant’s daily operations might not even cover the expenses from Ke Kai’s side.

Just thinking of this made Zhu Qianying wince in empathetic pain!

But as for her mother, she didn’t know how to broach the subject.

Moreover, the restaurant currently doesn’t accept walk-ins. All the patrons visiting each day had made reservations ten days to half a month in advance. Announcing a closure at this time would not bode well.

It would be easy to close and rest, but it would be hard to reopen later!
