Yang Cheng thought about it carefully. It had been quite some time since Tang Xin got pregnant. So she had already given birth.
Although the child was a member of the Li family, she was also Yan Buwen's descendant.
Yan Buwen was one of the few opponents Yang Dun took seriously. Although he died a horrible death, it was only because his opponent chose Yang Dun. Otherwise, he would have been a genius who could compete with Jane.
However, Li Dun was a magnanimous person. He loved a woman so much that he could accept her having someone else's child. Yang Cheng couldn't do that.
Time passed quickly as he thought about it.
Lanlan only came down the stairs when it was nighttime. She held her stomach and pouted.
Yang Chen walked forward to carry his daughter and praised her with a smile, "Not bad, you've been thinking in the room for so long. You're such a good girl."
Lin Ruoxi looked at her daughter with approval. It was rare for her to take something so boring so seriously.
Lanlan blinked her big eyes. Her cheeks were rosy as she said softly, "Lanlan thought for a while and couldn't think of anything. I got sleepy and fell asleep. I'm hungry now …"
"…"
Yang Cheng suddenly felt that educating a child was a long and arduous task.
The next morning, the family of three arrived at Beijing.
The person who drove to pick up Yang Chen and the others was actually Yuan Ye. Ever since this fellow joined his family's business, he had become more and more mature. Just from his demeanor, it could be seen that he was from a family of gold collars, and was no longer the youngster who dreamed of killing magical beasts.
Yuan Ye, who came back to the Yang Family with his parents for the New Year, wanted to seize the opportunity to perform well in front of his grandfather, Yang Gongming.
Although he was Yang Chen's nephew, in terms of blood relations, there was no difference between him and Yang Chen, but in terms of family background, Yuan Ye's surname was Yuan after all. If he wanted the Yang clan to support him, he still had to work hard.
"Brother Chen, it's almost a month away from Chinese New Year. It's rare for us to have such a long reunion," Yuan Ye said excitedly as he drove.
Yang Cheng didn't think that this was something to be happy about. Just visiting and being visited was tiring enough.
"Is everything okay at home?" Yang Cheng asked casually.
Yuan Ye nodded. "Not really, but Aunt and Uncle aren't in a good mood. Recently, they seem to have quarreled a lot over Cousin Yang Lie's matter. Grandpa even got angry twice."
"Yang Lie?" Yang Cheng frowned. "What happened to him?"
Yuan Ye sighed and said, "Cousin Yang Lie just came back a while ago. He went back to work in the military and was doing fine. But recently, he had been hanging out with some rich young masters in Yan Jing and indulging in debauchery. Although it did not affect his normal work in the army, his uncle was very dissatisfied with his style. He said that he … was too unrestrained. That was probably what he meant.
But Aunt thinks that it's those heirs who brought him there. Plus, it's not a big deal to go to bars, nightclubs, and entertainment centers. She thinks that it's a man's way of socializing. As long as he doesn't get into trouble, she shouldn't care too much. So, they got into a conflict. "
Lin Ruoxi squinted at Yang Cheng when she heard this. "Looks like you guys are related by blood. You're both the same."
Yang Cheng wasn't happy to be compared with Yang Lie, but he had nothing to say. He had been to those places many times in the past.
Forty minutes later, they finally arrived at the Yang Family's mansion through the torrent of traffic.
Lanlan had come back last time, so she was very excited. She ran into the door like a swallow the moment she got out of the car and shouted, "Great Grandpa."
In the front hall of the Yang Family's mansion, Yang Gongming and the others were already waiting.
Yang Gongming put down the teacup in his hand when he saw Lanlan with her pigtails running towards him. He cheerfully stood up and caught his great-granddaughter who jumped up.
"Lanlan, did you miss Great Grandpa?" Yang Gongming asked kindly.
"I did." Lanlan nodded. "Lanlan still wants to eat roast duck …"
Yang Gongming was overjoyed. He touched the little girl's chubby cheeks and felt that she was really a happy person.
The adults in the hall couldn't help but laugh out loud. Even some servants covered their faces and snickered.
Guo Xuehua, who was at the side, hadn't seen Lanlan for a while and missed her. She went up to pinch the chubby little girl's hand and scolded with a smile, "You're thinking about eating the moment you come. Don't worry, grandma has already prepared three big roast ducks for you."
Lanlan licked her lips and began to click her tongue.
When Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi came in, it was inevitable to greet them warmly. Yuan Hewei and Yang Jieyu were naturally there. Guo Xuehua hadn't seen her eldest son for a while, so she looked at him from head to toe as if she was afraid that he would lose weight. She had completely forgotten that her son was a cultivator.
Yang Pojun was the calmest. He just nodded hastily as a greeting, but it was a lot different from the indifference in the past. On the contrary, when he looked at Lanlan, this nominal grandfather's gaze was gentler.
After Yang Gongming put down Lanlan, he went forward and patted Yang Cheng's shoulder, "Fortunately, you came back in time. Tomorrow, you and your wife will represent the Yang Family at the Li Family's full moon banquet."
"Just us? You're not going? Will there be fewer people? "Yang Cheng was stunned.
Yang Gongming said affirmatively, "It's not a matter of the number of people, as long as there's weight. Even if the whole family goes, it won't be as valuable as you alone."
"I like what you said. Old man, it's rare for you to praise me," Yang Cheng laughed.
Lin Ruoxi still felt a little awkward when she saw Guo Xuehua. After all, it was the conflict between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that prompted Guo Xuehua to return to Beijing. Even if the old and young had reconciled over the phone, it was different when they met in person.
"Ruoxi, I heard that you resigned from your position as CEO?" Guo Xuehua started the conversation.
Lin Ruoxi's smile was a little awkward. "Yeah."
"That's good. Women should prioritize their family. Children grow up quickly, and it'll be too late to regret it if you miss them. It's not easy to be a stay-at-home mother," Guo Xuehua praised sincerely. She naturally did not want her daughter-in-law to be the kind of woman who prioritized her career.
Yang Jieyu, who was smiling at the side, said, "Sister-in-law, Ruoxi isn't a full-time mother. Isn't she the CEO of Yu Lei? That Xue Minghe is just working for her. When it comes to making big decisions, she, the CEO, has the final say. "
"That's good too. Good things should be kept within the family. It's such a big multinational corporation and it was passed down from your grandmother. She can't just sell it like that, right?" Guo Xuehua seemed to be very understanding.
Lin Ruoxi also relaxed. Her mother-in-law didn't seem to care about what happened before. "Actually, the company's system is already mature. That's why I gave the position to CEO Xue. He has experience in the US and Hong Kong, and he has been my assistant for three years. Usually, there won't be any problems."
Yuan Hewei joked, "Ruoxi, it's a waste for a business genius like you not to work. If you really feel bored, you can come to our Yuan Group and be a senior vice-president or something. You can help us quadruple our profits. "
"Come on, can you afford the salary of the young mistress of the Yang Family?" Yang Jieyu scolded jokingly.
Everyone was happy to hear that, but Lin Ruoxi was embarrassed and blushed.
Seeing that it was almost time, Yang Gongming asked, "Xuehua, is the luncheon ready? Don't let our Lanlan starve."
Guo Xuehua said respectfully, "Dad, it's ready. But … Lie said that he'll be back, but I haven't seen him yet."
"Hmph, that brat must have a hangover outside again. I wonder which woman he's in bed with." Yang Pojun snorted coldly.
"How can you say that? You haven't seen him yet. You just listen to what others say and make wild guesses," Guo Xuehua said unhappily.
Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi looked at each other. They didn't expect that they would have a conflict because of Yang Lie.
At this moment, Yang Cheng heard the sound of a car outside. He sensed it and frowned. He turned to look at the door outside, "No need to wait, he's back."
Not long later, everyone saw Yang Lie in his military uniform. His hair was messy and he yawned as he walked into the hall with heavy steps.
Yang Cheng could clearly sense that Yang Lie's cultivation didn't improve much. It was just that his body was stronger. But for some reason, he felt that something was wrong. It felt like there was something blocking him and he couldn't sense it.
Yang Lie raised his head and saw everyone in the hall with different expressions. He laughed loudly and opened his arms warmly, "Big brother, sister-in-law, welcome home!"
