Chapter 3657 Ye Jinghao

Ye Yiyi listened to her cousin sitting in the back row chatting with Zhao Chang'an about returning to China to invest and start a business. The conversation was very lively. Although she tried to join in the conversation, she still felt uneasy.

You need to know that you are Zhao Chang'an's woman, cousin. Can you please be a little more reserved? Don't be so enthusiastic with your brother-in-law.

So she drove really fast so she could get back to Stockholm as soon as possible, lest her cousin flirt with her man.

When Ye Ziyu saw this, she felt that her cousin had grown up and become sensible. She knew that Zhao Chang'an would have to prepare bait for the fishing grounds when he arrived at the destination, and give it to her father as a valuable gift for his first visit as the new son-in-law. That's why she drove so fast.

Having learned his lesson from Ye Ziyu's sudden stop yesterday morning, Zhao Chang'an refrained from making any unwanted advances towards her this time, as she had been injured and bleeding the previous night and her wounds had not yet fully healed, and he was afraid of causing further harm.

Instead, Ye Ziyu was not satisfied with placing her hand in Zhao Chang'an's large hand. Along the way, Ye Yiyi could only see her upper body, speaking and talking seriously, but she had already taken off her shoes and was teasing Zhao Chang'an by rubbing her small feet in stockings against his legs.

It's obvious she wants more tonight.

The car arrived at the outskirts of Stockholm and stopped at the Ye family's traditional Chinese medicine processing factory. The two women led Zhao Chang'an on a tour of their largest traditional Chinese medicine processing workshop.

This workshop and plantation encompass six hilltops, covering a total area of ​​over three square kilometers. It cultivates a large number of local medicinal plants, many of which are over thirty or forty years old, and employs more than three hundred people.

In addition to this workshop, they also have a small workshop covering more than an acre in their family estate in the city, as well as a production workshop of Ye Pingbai's branch that they acquired in Bavaria.

Zhao Chang'an was surprised to see that all the staff inside had uniformly Asian faces. After Ye Ziyu explained, he learned that this was to prevent the technology from being passed on to those foreigners. They were all second- or third-generation Chinese immigrants from China, or students from Gu who had studied in Europe.

“There was a Japanese guy who impersonated a Chinese guy and came in to steal our skills, but luckily he was discovered, beaten up and kicked out.”

Ye Yiyi looked at Zhao Chang'an with her beautiful face, speaking close to him, her body occasionally brushing against his, which made Ye Ziyu frown.

Ye Ziyu sent an employee to gather all the items Zhao Chang'an needed and led him to the stir-fry workshop in the Chinese medicine workshop, which uses four heat treatment processes: stir-frying, roasting, calcining, and simmering.

"This pharmacy has a total of sixteen processing workshops. In addition to fire-based processing such as stir-frying, roasting, and calcining, there are also water-based processes such as rinsing, soaking, and moistening, as well as steaming and boiling using both water and fire, frosting, water-milling, fermentation, wind-smoking, and sun-drying—"

As Ye Ziyu introduced the place, Zhao Chang'an looked at the small courtyard with blue bricks. Inside were old houses with blue bricks and gray tiles from the Jiangnan region decades ago. There were more than a dozen pots of various sizes. Five or six of them were being heated at different temperatures by several shirtless men who were frying medicinal herbs. They were using firewood, and the whole house was filled with the mixed aroma of medicinal herbs.

Ye Yiyi was a little dissatisfied with her cousin. "If you're going to introduce someone, then introduce them properly. Why do you keep touching my man like that?"

"How did you get in here? Don't you know the rule that women and outsiders aren't allowed in the fire pit?"

A burly man nearly two meters tall was seen when Zhao Chang'an and his group came in. He waited until the man finished frying the medicinal herbs and was shaking them on a bamboo tray to cool before walking over with a displeased expression.

"Brother, this is General Manager Zhao Chang'an. He owns two Chinese medicine pharmaceutical factories in China with annual sales of several hundred million yuan. He wants to discuss with our family the possibility of returning to China to jointly establish a pharmaceutical factory."

Ye Yiyi walked to the burly man's side, affectionately put her arm around his strong right arm, and introduced him to Zhao Chang'an: "President Zhao, this is my brother, Ye Jinghao."

Seeing the smile on his sister's face, Ye Jinghao stared at Zhao Chang'an with a scrutinizing gaze. He felt the name was somewhat familiar, and then his expression changed. He asked uncertainly, "The Zhao Chang'an from China?"

"It must be Zhao Chang'an from China. Didn't I say he owns two pharmaceutical factories in China?"

Ye Yiyi felt that her brother became a bit obsessed when he was cooking medicine, and he didn't even hear what she was saying.

"A gentleman is not a vessel?"

Ye Jinghao asked again, his expression grim and uncertain.

Ye Yiyi's smile froze instantly, and Ye Ziyu, who had been looking at her cousin with a complicated expression, also looked grim. "Zhao Chang'an, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Zhao Chang'an reached out his hand to Ye Jinghao.

He noticed the change in the three people's expressions and understood their meaning.

Just like last night, Ye Ziyu said, "You've really put me through a lot. You'll be truly cruel to me after you turn thirty." However, Zhao Chang'an couldn't tell them that they were overthinking it. His brother Wen Ye seemed to have found a solution, or perhaps not yet, but he would definitely find one soon.

However, Ye Jinghao gave Zhao Chang'an a cold look, did not extend his hand to shake hands with him, and acted as if he did not see him. He said to his sister, "Outsiders and women are not allowed to come in here. You wait for me in my office. I need to talk to you after these few pots are cooked!"

"Brother, Mr. Zhao wants to use the tools here to make a fish bait for fishing and give it to Uncle. Uncle invited him to dinner tonight."

Ye Yiyi explained in a coquettish voice.

But to Ye Jinghao, these words made his brows twitch, and he said with a hint of anger, "This is a pharmacy, not a place for random cats and dogs to fawn over!"

"Let's go, once we have everything ready, we'll cook it at home."

Ye Ziyu was furious at Ye Jinghao's insults towards Zhao Chang'an. She gently tugged at Zhao Chang'an's clothes and turned to leave.

Zhao Chang'an was also a little annoyed by the scolding, but he was Ye Yiyi's brother, and he had just slept with her sister yesterday, taking Ye Yiyi's virginity. So even though he was a little angry, he had to consider Ye Yiyi's feelings.

Smiling, she said to Ye Jinghao, "Brother Hao, we were being presumptuous. We understand. There's no order without rules. Yiyi, let's go out first."

"—"

Ye Yiyi's pretty face turned red. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. She could only angrily shake off her brother's arm and turn to leave.

"Wait for me in my office, I need to talk to you, don't leave!"

Ye Jinghao ignored Zhao Chang'an completely, treating him as if he were invisible, and instead gave instructions to his sister's retreating figure.

-

Although Ye Yiyi was very angry with her brother, she still decided to wait for him in his office.

Of course, in Zhao Chang'an's view, Ye Jinghao's purpose in waiting for him seemed to be more to have a big argument with him.

"Your brother misunderstood your relationship with Zhao Chang'an, which is why he reacted so strongly. Just talk to him and it will be fine. It's just the two of you, brother and sister, don't fight."

As she left, Ye Ziyu tried to persuade Ye Yiyi, who was full of anger and looked like a little gas canister ready to fight.

However, Ye Yiyi clearly took her good intentions for granted. She walked up to Zhao Chang'an, tilted her pretty, fair face slightly upward, and asked, "Are you leaving tomorrow?"

Ye Ziyu's expression changed completely, and she stared intently at her cousin.

Zhao Chang'an looked at her and nodded: "I will return to China in the middle of next month. However, if things go well with Uncle Qiu tonight, we will send a letter in the next few days on behalf of Taihang Pharmaceutical to invite Ye's Pharmacy to return to China for inspection and to discuss cooperation. If things don't go smoothly, I will invite you and Ziyu to return to China for a trip in the latter half of next month in my personal capacity."

Ye Yiyi looked intently at Zhao Chang'an's handsome face and said softly, "I'll wait for you!"

Turning to walk towards the office building of the fried food workshop, he didn't notice that his cousin's pretty face had become very ugly.
