Chapter 156 Make-believe becomes reality
Ye Qian smiled faintly at Lin Rou Rou acting spoiled and said, “This is a public place, isn’t it a little embarra.s.sing?”
“Will you carry me or not?” Lin Rou Rou pouted.
“Carry, of course I’ll carry you.” Ye Qian said hurriedly. Then he bent his waist and said, “Come.” Ye Qian had heard of a saying before, women had the privilege to be spoiled and men must enjoy it because it was a way of showing love.
Ye Qian recalled a story that had a deep impression on him. Wife: “Let’s go over there!” Husband: “No, it’s too far. If we go you won’t be able to walk back.” Wife: “If I can’t walk back then you carry me.” Ye Qian felt that if women lost their spoiled att.i.tude then they would lose their womanliness. So he enjoyed Lin Rou Rou’s little tantrum. For him it was an expression of love.
Lin Rou Rou climbed onto Ye Qian’s back and leaned her face on his back, a happy expression on her face. This wasn’t a wide back, it could make person feel safe and peaceful. She felt that she could walk like this till the end of time.
“Rou Rou!” Ye Qian called out.
“Yes?” Lin Rou ROu said.
“Come to my house tonight!” Ye Qian said.
“Does it count as visiting the elders?” Lin Rou Rou asked naughtily.
“Yes, Laodie will like you for sure.” Ye Qian said.
“I’m a little scared!” Lin Rou Rou said.
“Silly girl, what are you scared of? Laodie is very easy to get along with. He will be happy to see you for sure.” Ye Qian said.
“Okay, then come pick me up after work.” Lin Rou Rou said.
Ye Qian smiled faintly and made a sound of a.s.sent. The two people walked together like this quitely. In the end Lin Rou Rou called for a taxi to return to the hospital. After all the hospital was quite far, she didn’t wish for Ye Qian to be too tired. Even though Lin Rou Rou wasn’t that heavy and Ye Qian could actually carry her all the way back to the hospital, after all while he was training in the Wolf Fang there were a number of times he had to carry kilograms of weight cross country, but Ye Qian knew what the girl was thinking so he didn’t resist.
After escorting Lin Rou Rou back to the hospital, Ye Qian chatted with w.a.n.g Hu a bit then left. The afternoon was boring, then Ye Qian got a car and went directly to the Ironblood Security Firm.
On the way, Zhao Tian Hao called Ye Qian. After exchanging greetings he jokingly said, “Brother Ye, unexpectedly you stole from me.”
Ye Qian slightly stared blankly, perhaps this was about Wan Chun Hua and Zhao Tie Zhu resigning so he decided to ask to make sure. Ye Qian laughed and then said, “President Zhao is joking. Tie Zhu and the others are my friends so we want to stick together and keep working together.”
Zhao Tian Hao was just joking early. After a pause he said, “I heard you established a security firm, not bad. Next time can the Tian Ya Corporation hire from your security firm?”
“Of course you can, President Zhao only has to say the word.” Ye Qian laughed. “Besides, the company has just opened, so we’ll rely on President Zhao in the future.”
“No problem.” Zhao Tian Hao said, “But you have to buy me lunch.”
“Of course, of course.” Ye Qian said with a laugh.
“Oh right, I still haven’t thanked you for rescuing Ya’er last time. If you have time please come have lunch with me. I have something to discuss with you as well.” Zhao Tian Hao said.
Ye Qian became silent for a moment, then said, “It was nothing, President Zhao. There’s no need to thank me, but yes we can have lunch, haha. But I don’t have time today. How about this, President Zhao, just give me a call when you have time.”
“Alright, sounds good.” Zhao Tian Hao said with a chuckle. “Oh, also, Brother Ye, don’t call me President Zhao anymore, after all aren’t I your father-in-law, call me father-in law, or at least call me uncle. Oh, I think I should be calling you nephew, haha. How about it? Is that girl Ya’er hard on you? The truth is, Ya’er’s heart is in the right place. She’s a little spoiled because I doted on her since she was young, please pardon me. I heard you were living together now?”
Ye Qian felt himself break into cold sweat, he couldn’t figure out what Zhao Tian Hao was really thinking. Did make-believe become reality? He really wanted to let his daughter marry him? But his tone didn’t sound too bad. Ye Qian laughed awkwardly and said, “You’re joking.”
Zhao Tian Hao laughed and said, “I can’t grasp what young people do, haha. Alright, you’re busy, I’ll call you another day.”
“Okay, goodbye!” Ye Qian’s head felt a little numb. If they continued speaking who knows what shocking thing Zhao Tian Hao would say next.
After putting the phone down, Ye Qian was silent for a while, then he called w.a.n.g Ping. The other person sounded busy, when he answered the call he sounded impatient. When he heard Ye Qian’s voice, a smile immediately formed on w.a.n.g Ping’s face and his tone improved a lot.
As the saying goes, the new boss cracks the whip three times, even though w.a.n.g Ping taking up the office of the munic.i.p.al committee secretary was important, having no record of achievements was no good either.
After exchanging pleasantries, Ye Qian suavely asked him to come meet him to chat, wondering if he had the time.
w.a.n.g Ping was not ostentatious about it, after a pause he told Ye Qian he was quite busy. He had just taken over the duties and needed to handle a lot of things. He said if Ye Qian was okay with it, to come to his house that night and talk things over at their leisure.
Ye Qian stared blankly for a while and then agreed, but then had to take it back because of the time. After all he still had to bring Lin Rou Rou back to his house that night and have dinner together. Ye Qian didn’t want to disappoint her. Ye Qian could see that even though she said she was afraid, she was still very happy.
w.a.n.g Ping agreed without thinking too much, after all he was quite busy. After he finished his work it would be very late so he did not insist. w.a.n.g Ping understood that he and Ye Qian were just barely on the same boat, to put in another way, they had an alliance, He had received a very valuable gift from Ye Qian before and he still hadn’t asked for anything in return up to now. He thought that this time he must be looking for some reciprocation.
When the call ended the car had already reached the Ironblood Security Firm. The company was renting an abandoned factory in the outskirts of the city, the area was large enough, and it was convenient to carry out training. After Ye Qian got out of the car he saw that there were already young men wearing camo clothing standing in formation. In front of the lines a young man was walking back and forth, his appearance was very serious. When Ye Qian saw him he couldn’t help staring.
