Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Simple Happiness
The Ye Qingqing in the photo was certainly good-looking, but after all, it was just a photo. In reality, she was flesh and blood, had an explosive figure, and carried an indescribable air about her.
When Ye Qingqing saw Song Yun's friend call her sister-in-law, she knew Song Yun must have mentioned her to his friends, which made her very happy.
"By the way, Brother Song, why did you come to eat here? Although the food here is indeed good, it doesn't match your status," Ye Zi asked curiously.
"What status can I have? I'm just an ordinary person," Song Yun said with a smile. "Actually, the main reason is that I've run out of money."
Ye Zi looked at Song Yun with a face that said, "Do you think I'm an idiot?"
You, a billionaire living in a 90 million villa, driving a 40 million sports car, are telling me you're broke? Yeah, right!
"Brother Song! You're just teasing me. Even the loose change from your pocket is enough for a family of three to live on for a lifetime!"
Song Yun looked at the other person with a helpless smile and said, "It's true, I'm broke. I just invested over a hundred million in my wife's company; I'm cleaner than my own face now."
"...Over a hundred million, beat it! You, dog tycoon!"
After fooling around with Song Yun for a while, Ye Zi packed up the food and left because if she didn't hurry up, she'd have had her fill of dog food!
Song Yun and Ye Qingqing then went to the villa.
Looking at the fully renovated villa, Ye Qingqing curiously inspected it. It wasn't that her living environment was inferior to this place, but because this was the future home of the two of them.
Seeing Ye Qingqing go up and down the stairs tirelessly, Song Yun sighed, "How about we don't go back tonight? Let's have a good look around!"
"Sure!" Ye Qingqing didn't hesitate at all and immediately sent a text message to her family.
Holy shit!!!
He was just teasing the girl, but why did she take it seriously?
Does that mean tonight...
Ye Qingqing seemed to see right through Song Yun and gave him a glance, saying, "Put away those thoughts in your head. It's not going to happen before we meet the parents, you know!"
"...What are you talking about? I didn't think of anything!"
Song Yun, exposed, was annoyed yet embarrassed, went over and hugged Ye Qingqing tightly, planting a fierce kiss on her, If I can't make a big score, I can always collect a little interest, right?
When it was time to sleep, Song Yun originally intended to crash in the second bedroom.
But who knew, Ye Qingqing naturally pulled him into the master bedroom.
"No, no! I'm a man! We are legally married; aren't you afraid I'll lose control at night..."
"I won't, I trust you!" Ye Qingqing said earnestly.
Song Yun wanted her to see how treacherous society could be, but he wanted even more to be worthy of that trust.
Lying on the big bed, Ye Qingqing curled up in Song Yun's arms, her face buried in him, greedily breathing in his scent.
But this tormented Song Yun; holding such a beautiful lady in his arms, every bit of her skin was so warm. Not to commit a crime under such circumstances was practically a sin against nature!
Yet just as he was thinking of shifting slightly, he looked down to see Ye Qingqing had fallen asleep in his arms.
On closer inspection, the area around her eyes was somewhat dark.
It seemed for the development of her company, she hadn't been sleeping well recently.
Song Yun shifted his body to let Ye Qingqing lie more comfortably in his arms.
"Goodnight, love you!"
Song Yun stealthily kissed Ye Qingqing on the forehead and closed his eyes.
Without a word the night before, the next day, early in the morning, Ye Qingqing slowly opened her eyes, only to find herself lying on a strange, large bed.
Ah, right, this was going to be her home from now on.
Groggily, she reached out to her side, but wait! It was empty!
Where was Brother Song Yun?
She scrambled out of bed in a panic, hastily threw on a nightgown, and was about to head downstairs.
But just then, the door to the bedroom opened, and Song Yun entered, carrying a plate with a glass of milk, a piece of bread, and a boiled egg on it.
"Little lazybones, get up and eat," Song Yun said as he placed the breakfast on the bedside table.
"No, no! I got grumpy when I woke up and didn't see you this morning! Hmph!" Ye Qingqing pouted, turning her head away.
"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you."
"I don't care, I don't care!"
And so, after Ye Qingqing firmly demanded some kisses and cuddles and pouted enough, she got up to wash and start eating.
Meanwhile, at the bidding hall.
Zhou Chen shook hands with the person in charge.
The hottest plot of land had still ended up in his possession. Under his and Wu Lao's combined pressure the day before, many real estate companies gave up on this bid, and some old brands, after reviewing their internal financial chains late into the night, had no choice but to relinquish their rights.
There was nothing they could do; the young master of the Zhou Family had too much money, and in this day and age, money was king. Without it, they couldn't hope to close the deal.
So the hottest plot of land was finally auctioned off for 4.9 billion.
"Congratulations, President Zhou. I hope to see you contribute a landmark building to the construction of the Magic Capital in the future!" the person in charge said with a pleasant smile.
"I'll need your support for that," responded Zhou Chen with a smile. After a brief conversation, he took the contract and left.
When he got into the car, he found Wu Lao sitting in the back seat.
"All settled?"
Zhou Chen waved the documents in his hand triumphantly and instructed the driver to go.
"Heh, after this development, your Zhou Family will earn at least two billion," Wu Lao said with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Zhou Chen just smiled and didn't speak. Truth be told, two billion was on the lower side—if used properly, a net profit of three billion was completely feasible.
"As I am earning money, Ye Qingqing on the other hand has lost quite a bit. 1.4 billion gone just like that—I wonder how she'll explain it to her family when she gets back," Zhou Chen said with disdain.
A long time ago, he'd heard others praise Ye Qingqing as a woman of great valor who had struggled alone and eventually built up such a large business.
But now, Ye Qingqing, as if possessed, bought a piece of unpopular land, which was simply laughable!
"After all, Ye Qingqing is just a young girl, easily swayed. Maybe someone charmed her, and she made an impulsive purchase. But this is good; it saves us the trouble. Honestly, I thought she would go back home and ask for resources. Now it seems that people who don't know how to use their resources are doomed to be losers!"
...
Time passed day by day, and the government still hadn't released the news about the new subway line.
This made all the real estate bigwigs extremely anxious.
But Ye Qingqing, in the Mo Jing Group's office, showed not the slightest negative emotion. Her daily routine now consisted of going to work, handling documents, waiting for Brother Song Yun to pick her up after work, going home, and sleeping in Brother Song Yun's arms.
Simple and heartwarming.
Ye Qingqing could live like this for hundreds of years and never tire of it.
Song Yun was also busy, constantly checking in at various places. His 'small gold vault' gradually filled up. He wouldn't dare say it was a lot, but there was a tidy sum—just a few tens of millions, along with some functional cards. This bolstered him considerably, giving him preparation for any eventualities.
