"I need to go back to F country for a few days," he said.

Ye Jiuliang curved her lips, "Then take care on your journey."

While speaking, she took out a set of car keys from her pocket and handed them to him.

"For you."

Mo Chen was stunned, "What?"

"Motorcycle keys, the blue one in the garage is for you," Ye Jiuliang said.

Mo Chen caught on, joy rising to his brows, "Is it really for me?"

He was aware that Mo Garden had delivered five motorcycles yesterday, but he hadn’t expected one to be for him.

"If you don’t want it, forget it," she said, pretending to retract her hand.

"I want it, I want it," Mo Chen quickly grabbed the keys, afraid that if he was a moment slower, the motorcycle would fly away.

"Thanks, sis."

"The motorcycle wasn’t bought by me, he bought it; you should thank him," Ye Jiuliang said, pointing at Li Mochan with a slight hook of her lips.

Mo Chen froze, then turned to look at Li Mochan, his smile becoming more reserved, "Thanks, brother-in-law."

Li Mochan raised an eyebrow, giving a faint grunt of acknowledgment.

"Let’s go, come downstairs for breakfast," Ye Jiuliang said.

"I’m full already, sis you guys go ahead and eat, don’t let the breakfast get cold. I’ll head to the garage," he said.

With those words, Mo Chen spun around and ran downstairs, desperate in his haste.

Ye Jiuliang’s lips faintly curved upward, as she seemed to see herself as a child, looking almost exactly like Mo Chen when her dad bought her her first motorcycle.

Upon reaching the living room, Ye Jiuliang saw four or five suitcases and couldn’t help but smile.

It felt like they were about to move house.

"I thought we wouldn’t see you two until noon," Ji Mingqian said, never at a loss for words after a full meal.

Ye Jiuliang teased back, "You sure got up early, elder."

Ji Mingqian shot her a white-eyed glare. He didn’t usually get up that late, either; it’s as if everyone made him feel as if he woke up at the crack of noon.

"The plane has arrived; it’s time to leave," Jiang Hai said, entering from outside in a warm voice.

Two young men followed behind him, briskly moving the suitcases out.

"Xiaojiu, when you have time, come back to M country more often. Grandma will make you delicious food," Mrs. Jiang said, holding Ye Jiuliang’s hand, reluctant to let go. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Ye Jiuliang nodded, her voice softening, "I’ll come back with Mohan in a few days."

At her words, Mrs. Jiang’s face crinkled into a smile, "Good, grandma will be waiting for you. There’s no need for you to see us off, go have your breakfast."

Ye Jiuliang replied with an affirmative.

Veya escorted Mrs. Jiang out, with Mumu following by their side, while Jiang Yisheng lingered behind.

Ji Mingqian caught a glimpse of Ye Jiuliang walking towards the dining hall and immediately got up, following them out to the courtyard.

Jiang Yisheng walked with his head down, his mind elsewhere.

Suddenly, his shoulder was bumped. He turned his head and the man’s sharply contoured handsome face filled his vision.

Stunned, he asked, "Why are you following me out?"

Ji Mingqian crossed his arms and a roguish smile formed on his lips, "Feel free to come to Y country whenever you have time. I can be your tour guide, free of charge."

At that, Jiang Yisheng’s dim eyes sparkled with amusement, his tone lightening, "Does that include room and board?"

Ji Mingqian scoffed, "Are you short on cash?"

"Of course, I am. With your wealth as a superstar, Ji, how can I compare with your riches?"

Ji Mingqian chuckled lightly, "How much less is your net worth than mine?"

"Anyway, I just don’t have money. If you’re paying, I’ll go," Jiang Yisheng declared shamelessly.

Looking at someone who had eyes only for money, Ji Mingqian’s mouth twitched, "Jiang Yisheng, you haven’t learned much else, but you sure have learned Ajiu’s stinginess."

"You’re saying Jiuliang is stingy, I’ll be sure to pass that on to her next time I see her," Jiang Yisheng laughed, saying.

Ji Mingqian was both annoyed and amused, and he lifted his hand to hook around Jiang Yisheng’s neck, "Jiang Yisheng, if only you teased me all day long."

Being close, the crisp cold fragrance became even more apparent, and Ji Mingqian, as if driven by some devilish impulse, kept leaning in.

Jiang Yisheng’s gaze flickered slightly before looping back to the original topic, "So, are you covering room and board or not?"

"Stop nagging, you’re all set with food, lodging, and transportation."

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Yisheng’s lips.

"Asheng, come over here," Jiang Hai’s urging voice came from not far away.

Ji Mingqian retracted his hand and patted his shoulder, "Don’t get injured again when we meet next time; I don’t want to visit you in the hospital again."

Jiang Yisheng suppressed a smile at the corner of his mouth, "Got it."

He stepped away to leave, with Ji Mingqian not following him this time, turning instead to head back towards the living room.

...

Tengyue Group

"Mom, I know, our flight back is in half an hour."

Mo Su’s voice echoed in the quiet office as she held her phone to her ear.

"Mo Chen hasn’t reached my side yet."

On the other end of the call, Mo Su’s face was brimming with a smile, seeming in a good mood.

"That kid Mo Chen is stubborn; don’t take it personally. It’s your grandfather’s birthday tomorrow, and your dad will also come back tonight. It’s been a long time since our family sat down for a meal together."

Mo Su responded lukewarmly with a "hm," "I know."

The call ended after a few more words, and Mengzhu happened to push the door and enter.

The injury on her face hadn’t healed, so she temporarily wore a mask.

She spoke in a lowered voice, as speaking too loud would strain the wound on her face, "Miss, I’ve taken care of everything at the company, and Mark has sent a message that we can head out."

Mo Su nodded, her gaze sweeping over her own wrist wrapped in bandages, her expression slightly cold.

Seeing a figure appear at the door, Mengzhu called out, "Young Master."

Mo Chen walked in, his curiosity piqued when he saw her face masked.

What happened?

"Now that you’re here, let’s go," Mo Su stood up and walked around the large desk to come over.

Only then did Mo Chen notice the bandage on her wrist, and he blurted out, "What happened to your hand?"

Mo Su gave him a cold glance, "I twisted it due to carelessness."

Sensing the impatience in her voice, Mo Chen didn’t continue to probe; after all, it wasn’t his place to concern himself with her matters.

Mengzhu picked up the briefcase on the table and followed Mo Su out.

At this, Mo Chen scratched his head, feeling that something was off.

...

Country Y.

Knowing that Ye Jiuliang was returning, Gu Xinuo specially went to the supermarket to buy a bunch of snacks.

As for dinner, it was naturally Chu Chen who cooked.

With the pot of soup simmering, Chu Chen stepped out of the kitchen, and on seeing the woman sitting on the sofa tallying snacks, he walked over.

"Why did you buy so many snacks? Ajiu can’t eat all of these by herself."

"If Ajiu can’t finish them, I can help her out," Gu Xinuo said as she put the snacks back into the bag.

"We can eat them while playing games tonight."

With every sentence revolving around Ye Jiuliang, Chu Chen couldn’t help feeling a bit sour.

"What about me?"

"You and Li Mochan can go drink," Gu Xinuo arranged for him quite clearly.

Chu Chen gritted his teeth, "..."

Indeed, she had made the arrangements quite neatly.

This ungrateful wretch.

"What are you cooking inside? It smells great," Gu Xinuo sniffed the air and, slipping into her slippers, headed towards the kitchen.
