Chapter 49 – This Son-in-Law… The More I Look, the More I Like Him!
It wasn’t surprising that Zheng Wanqing and the others were so shocked, mainly because Zheng Jianguo hadn’t had the best impression of Ye Fei before…
Not to mention, the fact that Ye Fei and Zheng Wanqing had secretly dated for three years, and also deliberately hid the fact that he was the owner of Qingteng Bar — all these things had left a bad taste in Zheng Jianguo’s mouth.
But who would’ve thought…
Just one morning was enough for Ye Fei to win him over completely.
Zheng Wanqing leaned closer, stood next to Ye Fei, and softly whispered in his ear:
“Hubby… I’m curious, how exactly did you manage to win over my dad so quickly? He’s such a tough person, and yet you handled him so easily?”
“You’re amazing, my hubby! I really admire you…”
Ye Fei responded with a smile. “Isn’t that obvious?”
At that moment, Zheng Jianguo stood up from the sofa and said to Li Qiuchun:
“Qiuchun, hurry and make us breakfast, I’m starving…”
“Especially Ye Fei, he must be exhausted from the climb. He needs to replenish his energy. Besides, he’s still at the age of growing!”
“Aye aye, got it!” Li Qiuchun quickly acknowledged, then turned to Zheng Wanyu and said: “Wanyu, come help Mom prepare the food.”
“Okay, Mom,” Zheng Wanyu nodded and went over to help.
Zheng Wanqing sat on the sofa, hugged Zheng Jianguo’s arm, and giggled: “Dad, does this mean… you’re no longer against me dating Ye Fei?”
“Why would I be? Ye Fei’s such a good kid. Why would I be against it?”
Zheng Jianguo quickly said, “Alright, alright… go fetch Ye Fei a bottle of water. He climbed the mountain all morning and didn’t drink a sip — he gave it all to me.”
“Yes, sir!” Zheng Wanqing giggled happily. Seeing her dad and husband getting along so well made her heart burst with joy, both as a daughter and a wife.
“Here you go, Ye Fei, drink up.”
Ye Fei took the bottled water and took a sip.
“Breakfast is ready.”
Zheng Jianguo stood up from the sofa, patted Ye Fei on the shoulder, and said, “Ye Fei, come on, let’s eat.”
At the dining table, Zheng Jianguo asked, “Tomorrow is the weekend. Ye Fei, how about not going back tonight? Stay another night and accompany me for another mountain climb tomorrow.”
“Usually, I go hiking alone every morning. Your aunt and these two lazy girls never want to go. It’s rare to find someone willing to go with me.”
“Oh, right, I misspoke just now…”
“I shouldn’t call you ‘Uncle,’ I should call you ‘Bro,’ right? Hahaha!”
Ye Fei smiled. “Alright. I still need to visit the company tomorrow, but it’s no problem. I’ll join you, uh… Bro.”
“Bro?” Zheng Jianguo was surprised. “Ye Fei, you have a company too?”
He looked at Zheng Wanqing. “Wanqing, how come you never mentioned that Ye Fei runs a company?”
“Dad, I only found out recently myself. I haven’t had time to tell you, sorry…”
“No worries. Ye Fei, tell me — what kind of company is it? What’s your business about? Where’s your office located?”
“Also, is it convenient to bring me over for a visit? Maybe I could be of some help.”
Zheng Jianguo had only known Ye Fei was the owner of Qingteng Bar, but didn’t realize he also owned a company. That was quite surprising…
Could it be that Ye Fei’s parents are business moguls or successful entrepreneurs?
But thinking deeper, something didn’t add up…
Because… privately, Zheng Jianguo had already looked into Ye Fei’s background. He found out that Ye Fei’s parents were just ordinary folks — a teacher and an office worker, salaried employees.
They didn’t seem like the type who could financially support a son running a bar and
a company.This isn’t simple!
This son-in-law isn’t simple! Zheng Jianguo thought to himself.
He then asked aloud, “Ye Fei, tell me honestly, what kind of business does your company do?”
Ye Fei didn’t want to reveal too much. After all, some things were tied to the success of his ‘mission.’
“Oh, nothing special… just some side business, messing around a bit, gaining some experience.”
Zheng Jianguo had been in the business world for decades. He had seen all kinds of people and situations.
From Ye Fei’s words, it was clear…
He didn’t want to be too explicit — perhaps due to business confidentiality or other reasons.
“Alright…” So Zheng Jianguo didn’t push further. He simply said, “If you ever need help with your company or business in the future, don’t hesitate to ask. We’re family. No need to be polite.”
Wait, we’re already family?!
Zheng Wanyu was genuinely impressed by her brother-in-law.
Their dad, someone notoriously hard to please, had been handled so smoothly, and now treated Ye Fei like his own son.
This brother-in-law is really something!
After breakfast, Zheng Jianguo, Zheng Wanyu, and Li Qiuchun all went to work.
Only Ye Fei and Zheng Wanqing were left at home…
