Chapter 285: Overqualified Secretary

After all the training that Ying Yue He underwent for the past year, she wanted to say that she was a little bit overqualified for the job. The woman gave up her job, her ordinary life—as ordinary as it was—in order to find him and in order to be at his side.

This kind of request… almost seemed a little too much?

No.

Ying Yue He saw the look on her boss' face that came from a certain text message and knew that without a doubt, she couldn't say no to him. Not only was she a 'yes-person', but as long as she knew that it would alleviate his stress, then she'd go the extra mile.

Child rearing.

Could Ying Yue He think of it as training for their own future kids? A blush crawled up to her face at the sudden thought. Kids! Compared to other women in her workforce that were getting harangued by their parents to marry or else be considered 'leftover' women… Ying Yue He didn't experience that.

There were no parents that could bug her about this.

She couldn't even actually remember them now—Ying Yue He dropped the thoughts and shook them away. Even when she drank some memory enhancing tea and pills that strengthened her body and mind, it was always blank.

"I'll do it, Mister Li." Ying Yue He smiled at Li Yang and gave him a fist pump. "You can leave the task to me and rest assured, everything will be fine."

Originally, Li Yang was supposed to pick Chunhua up, but with the sudden texts changed his schedule drastically.

Li Yang nodded. "Thank you. I'll leave the address to you, unless you still remember it, and I'll see you..." 

"Um, are you no longer… well, are you going back to your place?" Ying Yue He asked. It was hard to demand him to stay with her as she didn't want to come across as too clingy.

It was actually hard for him to come up with a proper answer. Who knew how long his errands were going to take and the fact that he really did want to return back to his own home. It wasn't possibly that important, but there was something else he remembered.

The fish.

Chunhua really didn't mention it, after all, her mother was probably more important than the fish… but he kind of hoped it was still alive. 

Other than that, there was nothing wrong with staying here either.

Li Yang looked at Ying Yue He. "Tonight. Let's meet tonight at the hospital then we'll see where we go from there. Stay safe."

Considerate and yet always a little bit detached.  Ying Yue He grabbed his wrist, tugged him lower and kissed his cheek. "You too."

She'd probably save all the questions for later.

Hopefully.

Li Yang travelled and soon arrived in one of the residences, the main residence of his grandmother and something that was more of an ancestor's mansion after laboring their entire lives to buy this place and making it into the mansion it was today. 

It was the place where he grew up in and it was now something that Bao was looking around in with much interest.

"You got any baby pictures here?" Bao floated around. "You know, besides that awfully luxurious and rich painting that your family has?" It stared at the enormous picture of what appeared to be a golden frame. 

"No. Not exactly. There wasn't much reason for that and social media apps were nonexistent before."

"You're lying. You just don't want to show off stark naked photos of your little butt."

"I'd prefer if you could stop with that kind of statement." Li Yang gave the creature a flat look.

"I'll go look for an album. Who knows? Maybe you'd earn some points."

"... Do whatever you wish."

Li Yang stared up at the old painting and remembered the hours it took for the canvas to be made. It was one of the rare times that his grandmother tolerated having his mother in the portrait and naturally it was as opulent as Bao said it was.

The butler told him to wait a while before he could meet his grandmother… but for all he knew, she probably just wanted to make him wait and waste his time. 

The lady was usually prompt and business-like when meeting with business associates, but of course she'd make him stay for an hour or two if she could.

All so in order to make him understand that in the point of power and influence—she was still at a higher and greater point than him.

But at least she was still meeting with him? 

"Hah…" Li Yang didn't think that way exactly. His older brother really did get things easier despite being disowned before and emancipated. A part of him could have easily just ignored the message from both his grandmother and father, and yet… he still came here.

The need to maintain the resemblance of a cohesive family was at least important in the case of going after the Song's one and only beloved daughter. 

Not much in the actual realm of seduction, but so long as the Li family appeared well-put… then even his disappearance would not be taken wrongly by others in the same realm of wealth as his family.

While others may be prone to believe that only the financial aspect was enough to maintain a good reputation in the eyes of people, the socialites and the wealthy were also more scrutinizing than most.

The Song family wanted a family dinner once they returned here.

And though Bao may not have looked at it that much as progress, clearly thinking that approaching the woman was the key to actually gaining a relationship with the said person—at least in terms of this relationship between business tycoons and magnates, it was almost a business transaction between families.

He needed at least the bare minimum of support from his father and even the old lady.

"Your grandmother will meet with you now, Sir Yang."
