Chapter 16: Is This A Household Check?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“That’s not an issue. I’ll ask Uncle Yi to bring you along when we go to the Yis’ house for a meal so that the elders of the Yi family can get to know you!”
Chu Chu’s anger turned into joy instantly and she became all smiles because of Su Yuzhi’s words. “Thank you, Aunt Su!”
Su Yuzhi got married to Yi Xianzong as his second wife and gave birth to a son when he was in his autumn years. Everyone in the Yi family adored Yi Xianzong’s newly born son therefore Su Yuzhi naturally had a significant status in the family.
It should not be difficult for her to meddle in so that the Yi family accepts Chu Chu.
Chu Piaoyun frowned slightly at her niece’s conduct. “Yi Liangze is not a stranger to you as he is Fang Yu’s cousin. Besides, you’ve been following Fang Yuan and Anqi to the Yis’ house a few times. Why would he keep you at arm’s length if he’s interested in you? He only remembers you whenever they introduce you! It’s obvious that your interest is one-sided, why are you being stubborn here?”
Chu Chu started sobbing as her bubble was popped by Chu Piaoyun. “All you do is hurt me with words instead of helping me! Am I not good enough? Why doesn’t Young Master Yi like me? I don’t believe it, I want him and I don’t want anyone else!”
She stomped her feet in anger and stormed off.
Fang Yuan chased after her whereas Fang Yu only shrugged before Chu Piaoyun ordered, “Bring her back! Arrange a time for her to meet Yi Liangze so that she can give up on him as early as possible!”
Fang Yu objected, “I’m not doing that! He’s going to ignore me for two weeks if he knows that I’m pushing a girl to him!”
“So what if he ignores you? Are you going to lose anything?” Chu Piaoyun was furious. “None of you saves me from worrying other than Tianyi!”
Su Yuzhi and Yi Xianzong took Yang Yang and left when they noticed that the atmosphere was turning tense. Since Chu Chu, Fang Yuan, and Fang Yu left too, only Chu Piaoyun, Chu Tianyi, Su Anqi, and Ke Ke who was playing with her mother were left.
Chu Piaoyun ordered his nephew, “You should get someone to watch He Yi. You can’t get soft on her if she plays tricks!”
Chu Tianyi could not help but frowned, “Aunt, you should stop micromanaging about this! I will not let He Yi off easily if she really does something!”
Chu Piaoyun sighed after an awkward silence, “Fine, she’s just a small issue, I don’t expect her to cause huge trouble. I will not be bothered to waste my time and energy on her as long as she stays in her own business and not offend me!” She paused for a while before continuing, “About the two men…”
“I will deal with that, I assure you that you will not be involved.” Chu Tianyi was extremely dissatisfied with Chu Pianyi’s action but he had to help her to clean up the mess at this point. After all, it became tricky to be dealt with because Yi Liangze was there when everything happened. Therefore, Chu Tianyi had to gather himself and deal with it.
Su Anqi rose hurriedly to send Chu Pianyi off when she stood up and tried to please her, “Aunt, Tianyi’s secretary will send the hotel’s tenancy contract to the CEO’s office of Wan Fang Group tomorrow. Just sign the contract and the hotel will be yours!”
Chu Piaoyun came to Guibin Hotel a few times and she paid a few compliments because she liked the environment there. She also mentioned that she had a plan to open a restaurant for the company’s own use for corporate entertainment and staff banquets as that would be more reliable than going to other restaurants.
Su Anqi immediately told her that the hotel belonged to Chu Tianyi and he would give it to Chu Piaoyun if she liked it.
Chu Tianqi asked his secretary, Qi to check since he could not say no after Su Anqi’s boast. Realizing that the hotel’s tenancy agreement was ending soon, he ordered not to sign a continuing contract and prepared to sign a long-term tenancy agreement with Chu Piaoyun. Of course, the consideration of the agreement was a nominal amount of 100,000 bucks as it was a gift.
A rare satisfied smile appeared on Chu Piaoyun’s usually serious face when Su Anqi mentioned the hotel. “It’s not a big deal but you remembered. I can see that you and Tianyi really care about me as your aunt!”

Yi Liangze just hung up He Yi’s call when he received another news before he could take action. Old Lady Yi and Lady Yi already went to take Bao Bao personally!
Yi Liangze went into a dilemma. He did not expect them to receive the news so soon, not to mention they were already on the way there with the speed of lightning.
There was no longer the need for him to go there since his mother and grandmother were already there. However, he lost his interest in drinking.
He put out his cigarette in an ashtray and stood up.
“Are you going to take Bao Bao?” Yu Shujun handed him his coat.
Yi Liangze took his coat and replied, “My mother and grandmother will take him. I’m going to the office.”

Ge Ge had been quiet because of the intimidating scene in front of her. She ran into her mother’s arms whilst Wei Jiameng hid behind He Yi and whispered, “He Yi, did you offend Old Lady Yi and Lady Yi?”
He Yi smiled bitterly and whispered back, “Bao Bao is from the Yi family!”
Wei Jiameng became even more shocked and turned to stare at the boy who played and went on a ride with her daughter previously. ‘So, that adorable boy must be the blue-eyed boy of the Yi family!’
“Great-grandma! Grandma!” Bao Bao opened his arms wide and ran to them happily like a lively sparrow when he saw the pair.
“Oh, my lovely boy!” Old Lady Yi crouched and caught Bao Bao in her arms before giving him countless kisses. “You scared me! I thought that you got lost!”
Fang Yaqin stood beside her as she comforted her, “Mother, I told you that Bao Bao is a smart boy and he will not be kidnapped!” Despite so, she could not help but turn to her grandson, “Bao Bao, do you know these ladies?”
Bao Bao greeted his grandmother and great-grandmother before introducing He Yi and Wei Jiameng to them in a serious tone since Fang Yaqin asked. “This is Aunt He, she is daddy’s friend. This is Aunt Wei, she is Aunt He’s friend. This is Ge Ge, she is Aunt Wei’s daughter!”
He introduced them in an orderly fashion without any difficulties despite his young age. He did not seem like a five-year-old at all!
He Yi walked forward to greet Old Lady Yi and Fang Yaqin in a friendly manner, “Hello, madam! I’m He Yi!”
Old Lady Yi and Fang Yaqin did not know who He Yi was but they had to give her a few more glances when they heard that she was Yi Liangze’s friend.
Yi Liangze never had many female friends other than from work because he was a workaholic, not to mention a young and pretty female friend!
Old Lady Yi held her great-grandson as she stared at He Yi from top to toe before giving her a smile. “Miss He, how old are you? Where are you working at? What is your father’s name? How many people does your family have?”
He Yi aside, even Wei Jiameng was dumbfounded. It felt like a household check!
