Ye Yun had been touching and caressing for so long that his throat was dry.
After all, he had been a monk for forty years in his past life, like a cat starved for forty years. It was hard to remain calm when the scent of fish finally reached him!
If it weren't for how busy the company had been recently, Ye Yun would have slept until noon!
Just as he was about to ask Li Mengyao to put Coco to bed so he could engage in a passionate battle,
However.
Just as Coco was lulled to sleep and he was about to enjoy the long night,
It was Li Mengyao's phone that rang this time.
In just ten seconds, Li Mengyao hung up, then looked at Ye Yun, hesitating to speak.
"Mengyao, hurry, the night is short, let your husband cherish you well," Ye Yun said flirtatiously.
Serious?
That was for outsiders. In front of his own woman, Ye Yun considered himself a beast in a suit.
"Stop fooling around. Didn't you say you wanted to invite Menghao over to talk about sponsoring him and building his own career? He just called, saying he and Wang Hui are at the entrance of the neighborhood," Li Mengyao said reproachfully.
"He's here? Alright!" Ye Yun was stunned and chuckled awkwardly.
The awkwardness stemmed from a subtle feeling of being caught in the act.
But Ye Yun was genuinely happy that his brother-in-law was here.
He felt grateful yet indebted to his brother-in-law.
Grateful for him stealing his wife's household registration book back then, and for his continuous care and help to Mengyao and Coco over the years.
As for Li Menghao's capabilities?
His so-called abilities were built upon experience and money.
As Ye Yun's brother-in-law, it wasn't difficult to give him a platform and further cultivate him.
"If you agree, then I'll go to the entrance to pick them up!" Li Mengyao asked tentatively with a surprised look.
Now, she deliberately tried to please Ye Yun in all aspects, wanting to tie him down.
If Ye Yun showed the slightest displeasure, she wouldn't have let Menghao come.
However, Ye Yun's current attitude towards her brother made her very happy.
"Okay, then you go pick them up! I'll call Aunt Sun and ask her to order a table of dishes to be delivered. I haven't had a drink with Menghao since his engagement, so we must have a drink tonight," Ye Yun said with a smile.
"Alright!" Li Mengyao was very pleased.
Soon, the couple divided their tasks.
Li Mengyao went to pick up Menghao, while Ye Yun arranged things at home.
Ten minutes later, the main door opened, and Li Mengyao led in a somewhat constrained Li Menghao and Wang Hui.
The constraint was clearly due to Ye Yun's home.
It was excessively luxurious!
A "King of Jinling Towers," a mansion worth over a hundred million.
As they stepped into the house, they were afraid of dirtying it!
Even the fruits and milk they were holding felt out of place, and they instinctively hid them behind their backs.
"Menghao, Wang Hui, congratulations on your upcoming wedding in advance!"
Seeing them step into the house, Ye Yun said with a smile.
"Brother-in-law."
Since the engagement incident last time, Wang Hui and Li Menghao's relationship had blossomed. At this moment, seeing Ye Yun, they appeared flustered.
She had only heard vague rumors about Ye Yun's past.
However, after the engagement incident, she had indirectly learned about Ye Yun's influence.
With a single phone call, he had summoned so many prominent figures from Jinling.
From the business world, the political sphere, and the entertainment industry!
Coupled with this mansion worth over a hundred million.
As the saying goes, wealth is a person's face.
Even though Ye Yun now spoke with ease and made people feel at ease, the aura of a person in power still made her afraid to meet his gaze directly.
"Sigh!" Ye Yun replied with a smile, then quickly went to greet them. "You two don't need to bring gifts when you come. Treat this like your own home. Come in, come in!"
The mention of "you two" and "your own home"
instantly eased the tension in Li Menghao and Wang Hui's hearts.
"Menghao, go to the kitchen and sit for a while. Someone will be delivering dishes later. You brat have been having too much fun at your mother's place lately, you've forgotten your sister and brother-in-law, haven't you! You're not leaving tonight without a couple of drinks!" Ye Yun said, feigning a playful scolding.
"Yes, Menghao, Xiao Hui. Coco has just fallen asleep, so you and brother-in-law can chat properly," Li Mengyao said cautiously.
Looking at his brother-in-law, whose wealth was now incomparable to the past, but who treated him with such warmth,
Li Menghao was momentarily lost in thought.
In the past, he still believed that Ye Yun's nature wouldn't change, and that all of this was just an act that would be exposed in a few days.
As for Ye Yun calling a luxury car for him, he thought it was just him being overconfident and boastful.
But now, it seemed this person had truly changed, changing to the point of cherishing and doting on his sister!
Li Menghao wasn't foolish.
In the past, he had always treated Ye Yun with a cold shoulder. The fact that Ye Yun could let go of past grievances was ultimately because of Li Mengyao.
And this...
was what he wanted to see the most.
He hadn't expected Ye Yun to help him this time.
Regardless, Ye Yun was the primary contributor to his successful engagement with Wang Hui.
For both emotional and rational reasons, he had to visit and express his gratitude.
"Alright! Brother-in-law, we'll have a good drink tonight!"
Li Menghao nodded with a smile.
...
Money makes the world go round. In just ten minutes, a table full of delicious dishes was laid out in the dining room.
"I didn't know you were coming, so the preparation was a bit rushed. Next time you visit, tell me in advance, and your brother-in-law will cook for you!" Ye Yun said.
"You... you can cook?" Li Menghao blurted out instinctively.
Although he was beginning to accept Ye Yun in his heart, his ingrained perception still led him to use "you."
His impression of Ye Yun was clearly someone overconfident and detached from manual labor.
"Your brother-in-law's cooking is excellent! It's much better than what they make in restaurants!" Li Mengyao said cheerfully, her mood greatly improved by her brother's visit, as if all the gloom of the past few days had vanished.
"Haha, Mengyao, you're praising me so much, if I don't perform well next time, I'll feel too guilty! Come, let's have some first," Ye Yun said with a chuckle.
He got up and poured a glass for Menghao.
"Xiao Hui, don't mind them, let's eat," Li Mengyao said with a smile.
Under the enthusiastic hospitality of the couple, they finally started eating.
After a few rounds of drinks and dishes,
Coupled with the perfect coordination between Ye Yun and Li Mengyao, Li Menghao and his wife finally let go of their past prejudices.
"Brother-in-law! I disrespected you in the past, I'm sorry! And I apologize for my parents' rudeness! I'll drink this glass!" Li Menghao raised his glass, about to drink it all!
"Sigh, wait!" Ye Yun quickly stopped him. "Menghao, I can drink other wine, but I definitely won't drink this wine with you. You never disrespected me. It was my own past foolishness, and I am the one who should apologize, it has nothing to do with you. And to be honest, I've always kept track of how you've treated our family of three over the years. This drink shouldn't be for you to drink, it should be for me to drink!" Ye Yun stopped Li Menghao. "Don't worry, as long as your brother-in-law has soup to drink, your sister will definitely have meat to eat!"
"Why bring up old, trivial matters," Li Mengyao said with a playful glare at Ye Yun and Li Menghao.
However, Ye Yun's last sentence still made her very happy.
"Sister, brother-in-law, we understand!" Li Menghao said awkwardly, putting down his glass.
"Menghao, since your sister said we won't mention the past, let's talk about the future."
