Chapter 287: Won't You Listen to the Boss?
"Brother, is sister-in-law blaming me for taking you out shopping?"
After Qin Yu put down his phone, Qin Wei'er bit her lip and asked nervously.
Although she had briefly interacted with Yan Mingyu over the past few days and found her quite approachable with no airs about her,
the woman was still the billionaire boss of Four Seas Corporation, while her own family were just ordinary folks from a remote rural area, standing poles apart in social status. She couldn't help but feel somewhat inferior, as if she couldn't even lift her head in front of Yan Mingyu.
"Wei'er, don't overthink it. Your sister-in-law was just telling me on the phone to accompany her somewhere!"
Qin Yu said as he gently patted his sister's head.
"What, Yan CEO? Sister-in-law? You really landed your rich and beautiful boss?"
Xu Peng's jaw dropped in disbelief.
Qin Yu had told him he had a crush on his boss, and Xu Peng had even encouraged him to bravely pursue her.
"Uh... she's actually my wife. You remember Yang Xue, the name on my marriage certificate, right? She and Yan CEO are the same person!"
Xu Peng was a good friend of his, so naturally, Qin Yu wouldn't keep him in the dark.
"Damn... with this luck of yours, I swear, only novels would dare write something like this, right?"
Xu Peng was beyond envious.
Marrying a woman on a whim and having her turn out to be the boss of a major corporation...
That was even more fantastical than those third-rate novelists' fabrications.
"Heh... some things just can't be explained in a few words," Qin Yu said with a wry smile.
There was still the issue of Miao Xian'er between him and Yan Mingyu; it wasn't even certain they could end up together!
"Boss, don't be a wimp. Take action when you should, push forward when needed, and don't be indecisive as a man. Once you have kids, can she still flip out of your palm?"
Xu Peng wagged his eyebrows and egged him on teasingly.
"Alright, alright, let's drink!"
Qin Yu said with a face full of bemusement.
How could he even think of making a move on Yan Mingyu when he hadn't even sorted things out with Miao Xian'er?
"Heh heh, no wonder you managed to get me into Four Seas Corporation, boss. Turned out you're half the boss now. I've got a solid grip on this thigh..."
Xu Peng wore a smug expression.
Ding ding...
Half an hour later, a luxurious and stately black Bentley pulled up outside the small diner.
It stood out awkwardly amongst the row of electric scooters and vans.
Yan Mingyu slightly lowered the window and glanced at the greasy little diner. She had thought about getting out, but her obsession with cleanliness got the better of her, leading her to sound the horn twice instead.
"Boss... go ahead, I'll settle the bill!"
Xu Peng gave Qin Yu a knowing look.
"No, your hard-earned money shouldn't be wasted like that. I'll pay the bill!"
After Qin Yu waved his hand and went to the cashier to pay, he walked over to the Bentley with his sister, flashing a sycophantic smile: "CEO Yan, where are we headed? Would it be convenient to drop off Wei'er?"
"It's convenient,"
Yan Mingyu nodded slightly.
Qin Wei'er was her sister-in-law; how could it not be convenient?
"Thank you... Sis..."
Qin Wei'er said softly.
In fact, she didn't understand why her big brother always avoided clarifying his relationship with Yan Mingyu. But he must have his reasons, so she hesitated to fully say the word "sister-in-law."
"Get in the car!"
The doors of Yan Mingyu's car were electric. She just needed to press a button from the inside for them to open automatically.
After Qin Yu and his sister got into the back seat, Yan Mingyu turned the car around and left the urban village.
The man for whom Yan Mingyu would come to pick up and act as a driver... in the entire East Sea, Qin Yu was probably the only one, as unique as a scorpion's excretion.
Before long,
Yan Mingyu parked the car outside Haikang Hospital. Qin Yu and his sister stepped out, and after she entered the hospital, he then opened the passenger door.
"..."
However, Yan Mingyu didn't drive off but instead stared intently at him.
"CEO Yan..."
Qin Yu felt a bit nervous, staring at Yan Mingyu's nation-toppling beauty, his heart pounding fiercely, fearing she would directly address their relationship. If that happened, he wouldn't be able to keep Miao Xian'er's matter a secret.
"Qin Yu...."
Yan Mingyu slowly leaned in, inching closer to Qin Yu.
The faint fragrance on her seemed to continually seep into Qin Yu's nostrils. Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire
"Uh...."
Qin Yu's Adam's apple bobbed as he looked at Yan Mingyu's moist lips up close, weakly thinking to himself, what does she want to do, is she unable to resist and is about to kiss him forcefully?
Then, should he push her away, or should he push her away?
"You hardly ever sit in the passenger seat, huh? Don't know how to buckle your seatbelt?"
Yan Mingyu stretched out her slim arm, pulled out the seatbelt, and with a click, fastened it for Qin Yu.
"Yes... yes..."
Qin Yu said sheepishly.
He usually drove for Yan Mingyu. If it hadn't been for his injury, he wouldn't have had the chance to sit in the passenger seat. Plus, he was a bit nervous being alone with her, he really forgot about the seatbelt after getting into the car.
But wasn't this scenario something you'd see in TV dramas about overbearing CEOs and Cinderellas?
How did it happen to him?
Yet, Yan Mingyu didn't say anything else, instead, she started the Bentley and merged into the traffic.
Recognizing the silence was prudent, Qin Yu kept quiet, the atmosphere unbearably awkward.
After driving for a while, Yan Mingyu finally pulled up outside the private tailoring shop they had visited once before.
"Last time, I ordered a few suits for my husband. They're ready now!"
After saying that, Yan Mingyu opened the car door and stepped out.
She was dressed professionally today, in a white blouse paired with a smoke-grey pencil skirt.
It beautifully outlined her rounded, tight figure with pride.
Getting out of the car, her body slightly bent, revealing a perfect silhouette of a slender waist and full hips, which made Qin Yu subconsciously start, realizing his wife had such a great figure.
However, seeing Yan Mingyu step out, he had to quickly exit the vehicle and follow her into the shop.
"Ms. Yan, you're here!"
The owner of the clothing shop, a woman exuding mature charm, greeted Yan Mingyu warmly before having someone bring over three exquisitely packaged boxes: "The three suits you ordered for your husband, they're all here!"
"Mm, give them to him!"
Yan Mingyu tilted her head slightly.
The shop assistant then approached Qin Yu with the three suits worth hundreds of thousands, presenting them to him.
"Ms. Yan, is he your husband?"
The clothing shop owner was slightly surprised.
"No!"
Yan Mingyu's lips curved up in a playful smirk, "My husband doesn't want to acknowledge me, so I might as well give the clothes to my bodyguard. After all, it's just wearing them, does it matter who does?"
"Hehe, you make a good point, Ms. Yan!"
The owner of the clothing shop smiled faintly, looking at Qin Yu with a different gaze. Being a bodyguard certainly has its perks, it seems he might even be promoted to boss, right?
After leaving the clothing shop.
Qin Yu, holding the beautifully wrapped boxes, said tentatively, "Ms. Yan, about these clothes..."
"Oh, you're calling me Ms. Yan, so I am your boss, aren't I? Would you dare not listen to your boss?"
Yan Mingyu turned back, her eyes unwavering as she stared at Qin Yu.
"I... I'll listen!"
Qin Yu, knowing he was in the wrong, didn't dare to say more.
Let Yan Mingyu tease him how she liked, he categorically refused to admit he was her husband.
"Squeak... Yo, isn't that Ms. Yan?"
Just then, a Range Rover pulled up, and a pockmarked face peered out.
"Hong Yilong?"
Yan Mingyu recognized him.
"Haha, Ms. Yan, do me the honor of joining me for afternoon tea!"
The car door opened, and Hong Yilong, no more than about 1.6 meters tall, got out.
Qin Yu's lips twitched. Was this the tall, handsome, and ambitious son of Hong Wu, whom Yan Mingyu had mentioned wanting to seduce her away from him?
