Chapter 1168: Chapter 1168 He’s Boasting Again

Lu Siyuan mockingly said, "Fine, everything Mianmian says is in favor of Brother Nan."

"Xiaoxi, you didn’t even tell me to drink less." Cheng Feiyang looked at Yang Xiaoxi, wishing she would show some concern for him too!

Yang Xiaoxi rolled her eyes at him, "If you can drink, drink; if you can’t, drink less. No one’s forcing you."

Cheng Feiyang was scolded and immediately behaved himself.

Lu Siyuan stirred the pot from the side, "With Yang Xiaoxi’s temperament, only you would like her."

"What’s wrong with my temperament?" Yang Xiaoxi, dissatisfied, tapped Lu Siyuan with a bamboo skewer. "Even if my temper isn’t great, I still have suitors. Meanwhile, you’re still single. No, wait, there’s a foreign girl who fancies you."

Lu Siyuan snorted, perhaps a bit tipsy, and spoke more than usual, "It’s not just the foreign girl. Let me tell you, there’s also a girl from overseas who likes me. She’s been interested for two years, and oh, she’s from Beijing too. Probably also back in the country now. I’m quite the catch, you just don’t know it."

Yang Xiaoxi rolled her eyes, "Mianmian, do you believe what he’s saying? I think he’s just bragging. What kind of girl would like someone like him, toxic mouth and not romantic at all?"

However, Shen Mianmian noticed that Lu Siyuan’s expression was different when he talked about that girl compared to when he mentioned the foreign girl. So, she said, "Maybe bring her along for a meal sometime."

"Better not," Lu Siyuan waved his hand, "She’s too clingy, I can’t even get rid of her."

"See, he’s bragging again." Yang Xiaoxi opened a bottle of beer, "Let’s drink."

Cheng Feiyang wanted to stop everyone but couldn’t, the mood was good, and Shen Mianmian also drank a bit.

Zhu Yun also wanted to drink, but Shen Mianmian stopped her, "You’re taking care of two kids, drinking is not good. Better eat more skewers!"

Since they were at Shen Mianmian’s place, and Shen Mianmian advised against drinking, Zhu Yun didn’t argue. After eating her fill and burping several times, she looked at the table full of skewers but showed no sign of leaving. Instead, she picked more for her son and daughter, urging them to eat.

The meat was fresh from the market; Shen Mianmian, being affluent, would not buy anything but the best – it was too good to pass up.

The kids, not having tasted such delicious food often, had a great appetite and ended up messy with greasy hands and mouths, unlike He Xiaobei who ate elegantly and slowly, clearly someone who never lacked good food.

Everyone was happy, chatting and eating. Maybe the alcohol opened up their hearts, and even He Nan talked more than usual, first asking about the changes in the country over the past five years then pondered deeply.

Cheng Feiyang casually asked, "Brother Nan, now that you’re back, are you going to take over managing Lanyue again?"

Lanyue had become formalized five years ago and was now flourishing more than ever. In Cheng Feiyang’s view, as Lanyue’s major shareholder, He Nan should continue managing it.

Under He Nan’s leadership, Lanyue was sure to reach new heights.

To everyone’s surprise, however, He Nan shook his head, "No."

Everyone looked at him.

He Nan explained, "Yiyang and Li Yue have managed Lanyue very well. I’m relieved."

Lu Siyuan raised an eyebrow, "Big brother He, are you planning to be a hands-off manager?"

To be honest, he was quite surprised. Although He Nan’s assets were indeed sufficient for him to be a hands-off owner, He Nan was still so young. Was he really starting to retire and live leisurely?

Isn’t it too early?
