Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

The next day.

"Good morning, President Yan." Cheng Xihe smiled at Yan Mingchuan.

Yan Mingchuan was in particularly good spirits today, and since it was Sunday, he had slept in a little longer last night.

It seemed like he had finally gotten all the sleep he hadn't had in years, and he looked refreshed and energized.

My energy and spirit are much better than before.

His long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the table: "Sit here, no one's sitting here."

"it is good."

Cheng Xihe sat down next to him, glanced at Yan Mingchuan's face, and smiled: "You're in even better shape today than yesterday."

"Thanks to Xihe, I do feel much better now and don't feel tired as much."

Yan Mingchuan took a sip of porridge and gestured with his chin toward Cheng Xihe: "Those were all prepared for you by the housekeeper."

"What's wrong? Am I a pig? Why are you preparing so much food for me this early in the morning?"

Cheng Xihe turned her head and saw the table full of fragrant morning tea, all of which were her favorite foods, and she was completely stunned.

Yan Mingchuan chuckled, "You deserve this. If it's not enough, I can have someone prepare even more delicious food for you."

"Stop!" Cheng Xihe didn't immediately pick up her chopsticks, but asked in confusion, "Where's Su Jin? Isn't he at our house?"

"Us?" Yan Mingchuan repeated Cheng Xihe's words in a low voice, a cryptic smile in his eyes.

Confused, Cheng Xihe looked at him in surprise: "What's wrong? Why are you repeating me?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Xihe is resting today because it's Sunday."

Yan Mingchuan smiled at her and explained in a low voice.

"so."

Cheng Xihe scratched his head: "I almost forgot, I thought you busy people worked on Saturdays and Sundays."

As she ate, she looked at Yan Mingchuan and said, "So, Mr. Yan isn't working today either? Why are you up so early?"

"I missed too much work yesterday because I slept in, and I need to make up for it today. These are all things that need to be dealt with, and I can't delay any longer."

Yan Mingchuan shook his head helplessly.

The group's business is extremely busy, and even though he has delegated his work to several assistants, it is still not enough.

Many projects involving large sums of money require his personal decision-making, and even members of the board of directors have no right to interfere.

Cheng Xihe stared at him for a moment.

Seeing this, Yan Mingchuan paused, his expression somewhat unnatural: "Xihe, what do you mean by looking at me like that?"

"It doesn't mean anything, I just think you look pretty tired too."

Cheng Xihe looked away: "Then you finish eating and get back to work. I'm going out."

Bai Ce handles all her affairs. She decides the overall direction of the company, while Bai Ce does everything else.

Although Bai Ce may seem like a big boss, she actually has a share of control over everything.

She never thought about these things.

"Going out to have some fun?" Yan Mingchuan asked tentatively.

Cheng Xihe thought for a moment and said, "I haven't decided on a specific place to go yet, but Xiaoting and my friends have both invited me. We're going to go shopping or something..."

"Okay, do you need me to have the driver take you out?" Yan Mingchuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Cheng Xihe.

Cheng Xihe shook her head: "Of course not, I can manage on my own. It's just a trip, you don't need to worry about it."

"Okay, just give me a call if you need anything." After saying that, Yan Mingchuan lowered his head and continued to sip his porridge.

After finishing most of the food on the table, Cheng Xihe stood up and said, "I'm leaving now. You can continue eating."

"Okay, Xihe." Yan Mingchuan watched Cheng Xihe leave.

As soon as he stepped out of the villa, Bai Ce was already waiting outside.

As soon as Cheng Xihe got into the car, he saw Bai Ce asking with a gossipy look, "Boss, are you going to live with Yan Mingchuan all the time?"

"No, just a short stay." Cheng Xihe's gaze was fixed ahead, casually brushing off Bai Ce.

Bai Ce pouted, and the eldest brother said unhappily, "Boss, do you have a crush on Yan Mingchuan?"

"Um?"

Cheng Xihe rolled her eyes: "The formaldehyde in my house hasn't even dissipated yet. Even if they speed up the process, I can't possibly move in tomorrow, can I?"

Even the most environmentally friendly materials can contain formaldehyde if glue or other adhesives are used in corners or joints.

Of course, it should be used after ventilation.

She even hired people three times to clean the house separately, three times each time.

"Boss, have you forgotten that you can still stay at my house?" Bai Ce persisted, ignoring all attempts to reason with him.

Cheng Xihe rolled her eyes: "Stay at your house? Come on, I'm not used to it. I'd rather stay at Yan Mingchuan's house."

"Fine, boss, you just look down on me and don't want to live in my house, but you can live in President Yan's house, you, you, you!" Bai Ce said angrily, snorting.

Cheng Xihe: "Don't pull such a childish stunt. If you keep this up, I'll send you to Africa to dig for diamonds."

"Hmph, where do we go now?" Bai Ce said aggrievedly, but he dared not throw a tantrum anymore.

This person treats you like a child.

Considering that he was the one handling the group's affairs, Cheng Xihe had no choice but to reluctantly let him off the hook.

Cheng Xihe: "Come visit my new house and buy some more green plants to put in."

"No need to go, boss. I'll have someone arrange it for you. Do you want to go somewhere fun? I'll take you." Bai Ce looked at Bai Ce expectantly.

Bai Ce's eyes darted around: "Xiaoting and the others invited me out to play. They said they'd go to Shengshi Plaza. Let's go there now, have a look around, and then have lunch."

"OK!"

"You're not working today and you're still spending time with me? I remember you used to work on Sundays too," Cheng Xihe asked casually.

Bai Ce said helplessly, "Boss, our company is a legitimate company. We have weekends off, and all holidays are statutory holidays. We also have 20 days of paid annual leave for the Spring Festival."

I usually have too many things to do, as I'm always at the research institute, so things just pile up and come out slowly.

Now that I'm in City A with you, any problems can be solved on the spot, without me having to work overtime in shifts at the company.

"Okay, okay." Cheng Xihe nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, let's go play together later."

Bai Ce nodded: "Mm."

When the car arrived at Shengshi Plaza, Bai Ce dropped Cheng Xihe off at the entrance and drove to the underground parking garage.

On the way, Cheng Xihe had already informed Nanxi and the others that she was almost there.

She glanced at her phone; the time was almost the agreed time, only five minutes off.

Nanxi: Cheng Xihe, have you arrived yet?

Mu Xiaoting: Sister-in-law, we only have three more stops to go!

Cheng Xihe: I've arrived at the entrance of Shengshi Plaza. Where are you? Should I go inside and wait for you, or stay at the entrance?

Qin Shengxia: Sister, go inside and find a milk tea shop to sit and wait for us. We'll be there soon.

Cheng Xihe: Why did you decide to take the subway today? Don't you usually drive?

Nanxi: We want to experience the joy of the subway, after all, the subway is quite fast.

Qin Shengxia: Hmm, not bad.

Mu Xiaoting: The subway is very clean, and there are restrooms at every station, which is very convenient.

Cheng Xihe: It doesn't matter how you got here, but please be careful.

Nanxi: You don't need to worry about that. I want to drink milk tea now. Xihe, go and queue up for me to get milk tea.

Cheng Xihe: What would you like to drink? I'll pay.

Nanxi: I won't be polite! I want to try Cha Cha's new drink, with 30% sugar and less ice.

Cheng Xihe: No problem, you guys choose the link and send it to me, I'll go and make the payment.

Before long, the four selected drinks appeared in the group chat.

Cheng Xihe glanced at the items and ordered a drink for himself and Bai Ce as well.

Bai Ce parked the car and got in: "Boss, where are we going next?"

"I just ordered milk tea, let's go get it now."

After Cheng Xihe finished speaking, she took two steps forward, and seeing that Bai Ce hadn't followed, she turned back to look at him: "What are you doing? Follow me!"

"Yes, boss!"

Bai Ce said in a low voice, "Boss, I'm already this old, isn't it bad for me to still be drinking milk tea? I need to control my sugar intake."

Cheng Xihe glanced at him.

Bai Ce is very handsome, and his skin and physique are well-maintained; there are no major problems with him.

Cheng Xihe rolled her eyes: "You're a big boss in the biopharmaceutical industry, don't you have skincare products under development? What are you afraid of?"

"Even so, I still have to maintain my physique, otherwise no pretty girl will be interested in me!" Bai Ce touched his abs with satisfaction.

"Drink if you want, don't drink if you don't, old man," Cheng Xihe cursed without any politeness.

Anyway, she's younger than Bai Ce, so she can scold him however she wants without being too harsh.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ce immediately said, feeling wronged, "Boss, you're calling me old? Am I really old? I'm still very young!"

"There's nothing I can do, I'm younger than you. You're much older than me." Cheng Xihe shrugged.

Seeing this, Bai Ce was furious.

The two arrived at the milk tea shop. After Cheng Xihe called out a number, there was a pile of milk tea that had not yet been packaged on the table.

Upon seeing this, Bai Ce's eyes widened: "Boss, I'm not angry anymore, but you have so much milk tea, I..."

"Boss, if you want to kill me, go ahead, but don't do it this way..."

"Are you crazy?!"

Cheng Xihe: "It's not just you drinking, my sister and the others are coming too."

"Oh, that's good."

Bai Ce patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

The mouse was scared!

"elder sister!"

Just then, Qin Shengxia's voice came from behind...
