Chapter 78 Hug left and right
In the conference room.

The directors exchanged glances and began to lighten the mood:
"President Xie, you can rest assured about us. Although we are not as capable as you and the chairman, we are more than capable of managing our own affairs. We have also brought the reports, and the data is definitely presentable."

"That's right! Mr. Xie, you can rest assured that the Xie Group has many branches and industries under our control. You can continue to enjoy yourself as usual. Even if you don't show up for a few months, nothing will happen to the Xie Group."

“If you’re really bored and want to get involved, I do have a project with the Imperial Capital Yanjing Group. I talked to their vice president at the last private banquet on the cruise ship, and the board of directors unanimously agreed that you should go there in person.”

"..." Shen Zongqian glanced silently at the man in the main seat.

The man in the main seat shifted to a more comfortable position, his tone slightly raised: "Yanjing Group?"

Several directors who had attended the private banquet on the cruise ship last time were eager to share their experiences:
"Mr. Xie, you have no idea how arrogant those snobbish wealthy families in the capital were at the private banquet on the cruise ship. Especially in the early morning of the third day of the banquet, when their so-called 'young master' boarded the ship, you have no idea what kind of scene it was..."

"At the time, we Xie family members were discussing BlackRock's contingency plan with the chairman, and no one even brought us cold tea. But those wealthy and powerful families, on the other hand, came out in full force just to pick up their young master. And not only did they pick him up, they also spread rumors about how handsome that young master was!"

"President Xie, our biggest regret at the time was that you weren't there. With you and the chairman of Xie's Group, you could have just shown your face on the cruise ship, and that prince from the capital wouldn't have stood a chance! We were extremely indignant, but we couldn't find an opportunity to meet him afterwards. President Xie, we really hope that you can meet that guy surnamed Yan sometime and deflate his arrogance."

"..."

The man, seated at the head of the table, ignored all the urging and encouragement.

He tapped the table lightly, the oppressive aura of someone accustomed to a superior position gradually rising: "No need to change the subject. The Xie family has no plans for in-depth cooperation with the Imperial Capital Yanjing Group for the time being. Bring out all the reports; I need to audit the accounts."

The board members immediately became serious.

Beside him, Shen Zongqian sighed inwardly.

The fact that their boss had a special identity in the capital was only known to the former chairman, Old Master Xie, and Xie Yuheng, in order to prevent the ambitious shareholders within the Xie Group from resorting to underhanded tactics.

To avoid unrest at the top, the situation in the capital was kept very secret. Even Old Master Yan was kept in the dark, only knowing that his troublesome only son had been working at the group for a while and then used business trips as an excuse to go out and fool around.

This stabilized the Xie family conglomerate and the top management of the Imperial Capital Yanjing Group, but as the BOSS's most trusted special assistant, who was also assisting with the work in both the capital and the port city, he felt that his brain capacity was no longer sufficient.

After several hours of meetings, Shen Zongqian was completely bewildered by the accounting. If he hadn't found any problems, it wouldn't have been so bad, but he had uncovered quite a few issues, both big and small. By the time everything was sorted out, it was already past midnight.

"Boss, shall we go back to Yushui Bay?" Shen Zongqian rubbed his eyes.

Yan Changye glanced at him indifferently: "Find a place to rest yourself. Meet at the company tomorrow, and bring the people from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission. I want to make an example of those directors who embezzled public funds."

Shen Zongqian nodded slightly and replied respectfully, "Understood, BOSS."

We arrived at Yushui Bay at 1 a.m.

The old butler, wearing a coat, followed closely behind Yan Changye.

"Young Master Yunxi, both young masters are already asleep."

Yan Changye hummed in agreement: "Have they been behaving well lately?"

"With the chairman in charge, they're very well-behaved, but they also have a lot of homework. Before the chairman went abroad, he instructed you to take care of them."

Yan Changye paused for a moment: "Just leave it aside, he can continue teaching it himself when he comes back."

"But……"

"There are no 'buts'." Yan Changye said irritably, "Kids are a pain to take care of."

The butler paused for a moment, then said, "Then you won't be sleeping in the same room as the two young masters tonight. I'll prepare another room for you."

“No need, I’ll sleep with them.” Yan Changye skillfully took a bathrobe from the large dressing room and went straight to the bathroom. “They’re noisy when they’re awake, but they’re quite cute when they’re asleep.”

The next morning, Xie Jian and Yan Yu woke up in his arms.

Xie Jian looked at him with bright, sparkling eyes: "How many days are you staying this time?"

Yan Changye rubbed his soft head and said lazily, "You've spent most of the last two months here." Xie Jian smiled and squinted his eyes, "That's great, I won't have to worry about homework anymore."

"Don't mention homework to me." Yan Changye immediately felt a headache coming on again. "Leave the ones you don't know blank. I'll personally apply to the kindergarten to stop doing them."

On the other side, Yan Yu emerged from Yan Changye's arms, disagreeing: "Our classical Chinese teacher just taught us that spoiling a child is like killing a child."

Yan Changye: "..."

He looked at Yan Yu, his tone more cautious and gentler than when he was with Xie Jian: "Ah Yu is so smart, she remembers everything the teacher taught her."

Yan Yu felt a little awkward and met his gaze for two seconds: "Your compliment makes me feel so embarrassed."

After saying that, he went to the washbasin.

Yan Changye gazed at his small figure, unsure what to say. Xie Jian lowered his voice: "Ever since our great-uncle started teaching us, my brother has become even quieter."

Yan Changye frowned slightly: "Is he not good to you?"

"It's fine! It's just that he often hits my palm! He doesn't hit my brother, he only hits me." Xie Jian said with some grievance, "Sometimes when it's clearly my brother who's wrong, my great-uncle only scolds me."

"Alright, stop looking so pitiful." Yan Changye pinched his cheek. "Go wash up. If you have enough time, I'll let you video chat with Manman for five minutes."

Xie Jian immediately forgot all his worries.

imperial capital.

At No. 1 Mansion, Jiang Manman received a video call from Yan Changye during breakfast.

On the other end of the video call, Yan Changye was still in bed, his white bathrobe slightly open, revealing his sexy chest. Xie Jian was also wearing the same bathrobe, nestled in his arms like a kitten, and smiled with half-closed eyes: "Hello, Manman!"

Jiang Manman smiled and said, "Your Uncle Yan came looking for you as soon as he went to Hong Kong? I thought he would be busy for a few days before he remembered you."

"He's so cute! He's so adorable!" Xie Jian shook his wrist, the bracelet on it shimmering. "You made it yourself, I love it so much! And the clothes too, I'll wear them to kindergarten later."

Jiang Manman hummed in agreement: "I'm glad you like it."

"Manman, would you like to hear a song? It's a new song our teacher recently taught us, I'll sing it for you?"

"Okay."

Xie Jian began to sing in her soft, sweet voice.

"The blue sea is the home of fish..."

He sang with utmost seriousness, his tone carrying a hint of ingratiation.

A crisp cracking sound rang out from inside the bathroom.

Yan Changye pulled Xie Jian out of his arms and tossed him aside: "I'm going to wash up. You talk to her by yourself, but don't talk for too long, or you'll be late."

After saying that, he strode towards the bathroom.

In the bathroom, Yan Yu stared blankly at the broken glass on the floor without saying a word.

Yan Changye reached out and gently picked him up, placing him on the carpet at the bathroom door: "I'll handle it."

Yan Yu remained silent, only glancing at the bed. When Xie Jian accidentally swayed his phone camera towards the bathroom, Yan Yu instinctively ducked into the bathroom.

Yan Changye suddenly looked up at him.

But the corners of the child's eyes were already red.
