Siyechen curled his lips lightly. "You haven't accepted my friend request yet."
"Oh."
Hearing him say that, Qingyan suddenly remembered. "I'll accept it later."
She had been too busy today and had forgotten about it.
Siyechen's voice was gentle, like a string of a qin, lightly stirring one's heart. "What time should I pick you up tomorrow?"
"Let's say 2 p.m. in the afternoon."
After all, she had other things to take care of.
"Where?"
"Just... at the doorstep of my house."
"Okay, I'll be there on time."
When Qingyan heard him say that, she was about to hang up, but Siyechen asked again, "Don't you like chocolate cake?"
Qingyan: ?
"I noticed that you didn't have a single bite in the car."
Qingyan didn't expect this man to observe her preferences. She casually replied, "I don't eat much chocolate-flavored things."
Siyechen understood. "Then I'll buy you cakes with other flavors in the future."
Qingyan:...
"You saved my grandfather, so it's only right for me to buy you some snacks."
"..."
"I won't disturb your rest anymore." Siyechen spoke gently, "See you tomorrow, my fiancée."
"..."
"Goodnight."
Siyechen thought the girl would reply with a "Goodnight," but she simply responded with a faint "Mhm" and ended the call.
She truly was an extraordinary girl.
After hanging up the phone, Qingyan was about to rest, but her phone vibrated again.
"Boss, boss! There's another ridiculously rich person who specifically wants a hundred pieces of clothing, a hundred pairs of shoes, and a hundred bags. They want it before sunset tomorrow!"
"I don't care. You have to give me the drafts now. I'll make the factory work overnight!"
"We must secure this big order!"
Qingyan raised her eyebrows and replied with her slender fingers, "Who is it this time?"
Could it be her father again?
"This person is extraordinary, even more remarkable than your father! They can be traced back three hundred years ago and projected three hundred years into the future..."
"Enough."
Qingyan wasn't in the mood to listen to his nonsense. She remembered that her warehouse was indeed empty, and considering today's auction, because of the tight grip of the buyer of Lot No. 1, she had spent a good amount of money on those six Yixin flowers...
It was time to make some money.
Qingyan said, "Start drawing now."
"That's great, boss! You're finally open for business! I'll inform the factory to be on standby overnight!"
Qingyan had a few factories at her disposal that specialized in producing the clothes, shoes, and bags she designed.
Perhaps even she herself hadn't expected that as she kept drawing, the sky outside the window gradually brightened.
Rubbing her sore wrist once again, she sent the final design draft as the clock pointed to 7:30.
"Wuwuwu, boss, if you're this diligent every day, you'll become the richest person in the world! Who needs Siyechen then!"
Qingyan raised an eyebrow. "Siyechen? The richest person in the world?"
"Boss, you don't even know who the richest person in the world is? Siyechen has been the richest person for three years! They say he's incredibly handsome, but his temper is not so good. When he gets angry, he's a bit terrifying!"
Qingyan blocked his WeChat account, not wanting to listen to his nonsense. She went downstairs to have breakfast, intending to eat and then go back to bed.
"Boss? Boss?"
System prompt: Your message has been rejected.
"Boss? Why did you block me again!"
Li Yusha got up early today. Zhang Mama and Xiaoqin served her breakfast, and the three of them whispered and laughed.
When Qingyan walked in, the three of them quickly exchanged glances and put away their playful expressions.
"Miss Liu is here? Please wait a moment, your breakfast will be ready soon."
The chefs in the kitchen, upon seeing Qingyan, quickly plated the prepared breakfast and arranged them nicely.
During this time, Zhang Mama and Xiaoqin stood still, seemingly not caring about this Miss Liu at all, not even greeting her.
"Sister, why did you get up so early?"
It was Li Yusha who spoke first, with an elegant smile on her face. "If you usually like to sleep in, you don't have to change that in your own home."
Qingyan ignored her and saw that the breakfast brought by the chef looked good and had a pleasant aroma.
"Miss Liu, I am Chef Zhang. Today's breakfast was prepared by me."
"We have Canadian geoduck congee, red date swallow's nest, milk fish glue, Mexican pancakes, avocado toast, Doric cheese sandwich, lobster bisque, as well as handcrafted coffee, soy milk, milk, and more."
"As for the fruits and vegetables, we have Japanese black-skinned watermelon, British pineapple, and Hokkaido Yuzhangwang sweet melon."
"I don't know which flavor you prefer, so I brought you some of each. Please enjoy."
"Thank you." Qingyan wasn't picky about breakfast, she just wanted to finish eating and go back to her room to rest.
However--
Li Yusha and Zhang Mama exchanged a glance and suddenly said, "Sister... I heard that you're going to visit Grandpa Si. Let me accompany you?"
Qingyan didn't pause her actions. She ate her Doric cheese sandwich and took a sip of milk.
"It's summer vacation now, and I have time. Normally, I can't even muster the courage to go with you!"
Seeing that she didn't respond, Li Yusha continued to speak for herself.
"You probably haven't seen many grand occasions before, right? It's inevitable to feel nervous..."
"I understand Grandpa Si's character and temper very well. If you accidentally say or do something wrong, I can help smooth things over."
"Although I'm not the most favored one in Grandpa Si's eyes, he's always happy to see me. I think he'll extend his love to you as well and treat you well."
"Grandpa Si dotes the most on our Miss Yusha!"
Xiaoqin disdainfully glanced at Qingyan and said condescendingly, "With Miss Yusha around, even if Miss Qingyan makes a mistake, Master Si would spare her because of Miss Yusha's face. He would give you some leeway!"
Zhang Mama, thinking that things had been settled, whispered to Li Yusha, "I will go prepare the clothes Miss Yusha will wear today."
"I'm riding in Si Yechen's car. If you want to ride, go and talk to him," Qingyan suddenly spoke, "Talking to me won't help."
"Sister... You... don't agree?"
"Mm."
"... " Li Yusha's face immediately turned awkward. She didn't expect this stubborn girl to directly refuse.
Seeing Qingyan leisurely finish her breakfast and leave the table, Xiaoqin felt somewhat angry. "She only knew Young Master Si for a few days, and she dares to use his name to suppress you so quickly? She acts so superior! Does she really think she's Young Master Si's wife?"
Li Yusha clenched her lower lip tighter. Si Yechen didn't want to bring her along last night, and now this stubborn girl wouldn't agree either...
Hmph, is it because she's afraid that Li Yusha's beauty would overshadow her rustic charm?
"Miss Yusha, don't worry. Let her hit a wall. When she makes a fool of herself and upsets Master Si, you can go visit him. Once he compares the two, he will realize that you are the best choice as his daughter-in-law!"
