Urban Invincible Overlord

On the plane back to Hai City, there were only the three siblings in business class.

Yang Wen gratefully said to Qin Yanyang, "Sister-in-law, thank you for taking care of my dad and my brother."

Qin Yanyang smiled slightly, "Why so formal? Besides, I didn't do anything special; I just let them continue with their own professions."

Yang Wen admired, "It's precisely because you let them work in their field that they are happier. Both my dad and brother aren't highly educated, so giving them more opportunities in their expertise makes them happy. If they had to do something else, they wouldn't understand it, and would feel more constrained—even with the possibility of making money, they wouldn't be as happy. Sister-in-law, you are truly kind, helping others while considering their needs."

Qin Yanyang said with a smile, "Indeed, they could make more money and it could be easier, but then they might feel inadequate, which could diminish their enthusiasm and passion. Let's just keep going; Yang Hao and Qiaoqiao are still young, and if they are interested, they can learn more and try other things."

Yang Fei couldn't help saying, "When they try other things later, please look after them too."

Qin Yanyang replied, "Of course, since we are family, I should help as much as I can without compromising my principles. Why wouldn't I take care of my relatives more?"

Yang Fei smiled happily; perhaps Qin Yanyang herself hadn't realized that she had fully integrated into her role, into this small rural family.

Yang Wen couldn't help but grab her sister-in-law's hand and affectionately said, "Sister-in-law, I find myself liking you more and more. You clearly come from a high-ranking official's family, but you don't act high and mighty at all. Not only are you approachable, but you also pay attention to the tiniest details and always consider others in everything you do. I really like it."

Qin Yanyang giggled, "Then I should marry you instead."

Yang Wen chuckled, "That won't work, my big brother would kill me."

Yang Fei sat by, laughing happily.

He noticed that there was no initial distance between Qin Yanyang and Yang Wen like there was when he first got together with her.

She truly was approachable, treating Yang Wen as a relative and a friend.

Hey, it seemed like that invisible distance between them was gone too?

Realizing this, Yang Fei looked at Qin Yanyang, thought about the scene of holding each other while sleeping last night, and grinned.

The future was promising and surely would fulfill his expectations.

Thinking of the song from Deer and Cauldron that Duolong sang, he hummed softly to himself, "In what year, in what month, will my hopes be fulfilled... "

When they arrived back in Hai City, it was already past four in the afternoon.

Yang Wen went directly to the villa with them. Their second aunt brought them a smoked pork leg, a cleaned and prepped chicken, along with wild black truffles from the mountains, which they cooked while fresh.

In the kitchen, taking out these mountain delicacies that the second aunt brought, Yang Fei saw that there were quite a lot of black truffles. He thought for a moment and suggested to Qin Yanyang, "These truffles taste best fresh; they lose flavor after being frozen, and we can't finish them all. Let's send some to Old Li."

Qin Yanyang nodded, then looked up and said, "Why don't you go invite Old Li over, and we'll have dinner together."

Yang Fei was startled upon hearing this and looked up at Qin Yanyang, "Would that be okay?"

Qin Yanyang was taken aback, "It's just dinner at home, what's the inconvenience?"

Yang Fei said, "I mean, this is your house, and I... "

Qin Yanyang smiled slightly, looking at Yang Fei, "Are you saying because the house is mine and the friends are yours, it might not be right?"

Yang Fei nodded.

Qin Yanyang asked with a smiling face, "Then what is our relationship?"

Yang Fei laughed, "Alright, I'll go fetch Old Li."

Humming a tune, he happily went out.

Qin Yanyang watched his cheerful stride, faintly hearing him humming something about fulfilling wishes and smiled knowingly.

So what if it wasn't earth-shattering?

Isn't the most beautiful form of love found in the subtle joys and stirrings of mundane life?

The silent nurturing of feelings through life's everyday touches might just make it more lasting and stable.

Although he didn't really want to admit it, Qin Yanyang knew that he might have fallen for... no, it was liking, liking this man. My Vir+t#u%a-l L+ib*r-a+r&y! Empire (M-VLE^MPYR$)

She also knew that this man was quite satisfied with her as well.

She couldn't help but think of Yang Hao and Huang Qiaoqiao.

She and Yang Fei, it was mutual affections, wasn't it?

Thinking about this, Qin Yanyang's smile bloomed beautifully, and she felt sweetness in her heart.

So this was love, truly beautiful indeed!

Yang Fei was feeling delightful inside, humming and singing a tune as he briskly walked all the way to Li Xuantong Medical Hall.

It was now four fifty in the afternoon, and there weren't many patients in the medical hall; Yang Fei directly went to Li Xuantong's consultation room.

"Oh, didn't you go back to the countryside? How come you're back already?" Li Xuantong, seeing Yang Fei, asked with a smile.

Yang Fei nodded, "Yeah, just got back a while ago. My uncle and his wife brought me some wild mushrooms. I was originally going to bring you some, but my wife said to invite you over for dinner. Are you free tonight, Old Li?"

Li Xuantong's eyes lit up, "You're from Xiangxi, and the black truffle mushrooms from there are indeed in season now."

Yang Fei raised his thumb, "Old Li, impressive, you know your stuff."

Li Xuantong, eager for a taste, said, "Then I must go and try it; it's been many years since I last had them, especially that broth, tsk tsk, let's go, I can't wait."

The two had just walked out of the medical hall when they ran into Li Yaqing.

"Grandpa, Brother Yang, where are you guys off to?" Li Yaqing saw the two of them exiting together and asked with a smile.

Li Xuantong said, "We're going to Yang Fei's home for dinner. Girl, what are you here for?"

Li Yaqing came over, linking arms with Li Xuantong, and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, help me out, please. If you help me complete the secret formula, my company can be revived. You can't just watch my company go bankrupt, right?"

Li Xuantong listened and scoffed, "Your dad and mom aren't worried; what are you scared of? If the company goes bankrupt, you can work with Grandpa at the medical hall, I can support you."

Li Yaqing was not willing to give up, pleadingly, "Grandpa, I'm their only daughter; the company will be mine in the future. Although you dislike them, you do love me. I believe you won't stand by and watch my company go bankrupt."

Li Xuantong snorted decisively, waving his hand, "Step aside; this matter is not up for discussion. Don't delay me from going to Yang Fei's home for dinner."

Upon hearing this, Li Yaqing turned to Yang Fei, "Brother Yang, may I come too?"

Yang Fei nodded with a smile, "Sure."

She wasn't an outsider, and besides, Li Yaqing had taken the initiative to ask. How could he refuse?

Seeing Yang Fei agree, Li Xuantong was unhappy but hesitated, then looked at Yang Fei, "Brother Yang, this... with Yaqing and I going over for dinner, is it convenient?"

Yang Fei, seeing him ask this way, felt a bit puzzled, "What's inconvenient about it? My wife asked me to invite you."

Li Xuantong coughed to hint, "I mean, us meeting your wife, could it be somewhat inconvenient?"

The last time he had taken Yang Fei home, he had speculated that Yang Fei was with a wealthy older woman. In his mind, Yang Fei's wife must be quite old.

It was fine if he knew about it, but letting Yaqing know might make her look down on Yang Fei, and it would be difficult for him to facilitate anything between them in the future.

Yang Fei, unaware of Li Xuantong's intentions, waved his hand, "It's convenient, why wouldn't it be? Let's go, I still need to cook when I get back."

Li Xuantong, hearing this, became even more convinced in his belief.

Inviting someone home for a meal, yet the man still had to cook, clearly showed Yang Fei's low status at home.

His generation had always believed that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen, and he used this belief to gauge Yang Fei's status at home.

Nevertheless, he should first go and see. If his wife was indeed too old, he would need to advise Yang Fei later. Being so young, he shouldn't just stick to one path to the end.
