"This is great; Uncle Li, you can let your boss know that I wonāt hold him back on the supply side."
"Alright, thatās good!" Shopkeeper Li said while still glancing at Ye Ziāan from time to time. He thought to himself, why is this kid still wearing a cold face? He couldnāt help but ask, "Do you not want to see me today? You used to be all smiles, but your face turned cold as soon as I arrived?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia turned to look at Ye Ziāan, whose face was indeed emotionless. She couldnāt help but want to laugh in her heart.
"Come on, this is Uncle Li, not a woman," Yang Chuxia chided, glancing at him.
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Li understood what was going on. He shook his head with a smile and said to Ye Ziāan, "Alright, alright, you keep on looking stern. Anyway, you usually have this kind of expression. I know itās not just toward me."
At this, Ye Ziāanās mouth twitched and then went back to its usual expression. His face, however, softened a little, "Uncle Li, thank you for understanding."
"No problem, no problem!" Shopkeeper Li nodded with a smile, then after chatting casually for a while longer, he excused himself and left.
As soon as Shopkeeper Li left, Ye Ziāan suddenly felt a chill.
Then he saw Yang Chuxia looking at him with a half-smiling expression. Although she didnāt move, he already felt pain in his waist.
As expected, in the next second, Yang Chuxiaās mischievous hand reached for the soft flesh of his waist.
"Hmm? Thank you for understanding? Did I force you?"
Ye Ziāan quickly shook his head, only to feel a pain in his waist the following second.
Seeing his face twitch slightly, Yang Chuxia asked again, "Did I threaten you with a knife?"
Ye Ziāan hurriedly said in a serious tone, "No, no, I did it willingly, voluntarily. I want to eliminate any potential threats to my relationship with Xiaxia."
"Thatās more like it." With that, Yang Chuxia released her grip.
Ye Ziāan rubbed his waist and approached Yang Chuxia, "Xiaxia, do I get a reward for being so obedient?"
Yang Chuxia rolled her eyes and thought, where is Yang Qingrui? Where is he? Didnāt he say that his Brother Ziāan was always cold and indifferent? Who is this slightly slippery and silly person now? Hurry up and take him away!
"Xiaxia!"
Seeing her not speaking, Ye Ziāan called her again.
Yang Chuxia turned her head to meet his eager eyes and couldnāt help but feel a stir in her heart. Seeing no one around, she leaned in and kissed Ye Ziāanās cheek. However, Ye Ziāan wasnāt satisfied and took advantage of the situation to hug Yang Chuxiaās waist and kissed her red lips.
Fortunately, he knew to hold back, and it was only a light kiss before he smilingly pulled away.
"Xiaxia, what do you think about the house over at my place?" Ye Ziāan suddenly asked again, "What kind of style do you want it to be? Like the enclosed houses in town? Or like your current one?"
"I donāt want either of them."
"Oh, what do you have in mind?" Ye Ziāan asked.
Yang Chuxia thought for a moment and said, "No matter where we end up later, we will eventually return to live here, so itās important to plan this house well. I actually want to build a two-story building."
Right, no matter where they were in the future, they would always return to Yangshu Village, as previously agreed between her and Ye Ziāan.
"Not like the two-story buildings in the restaurant, but rather, a bit like those in grand households with a viewing terrace," she added. "Then connect it to a courtyard like this. Thereās no need for extra rooms, but the main building could have more rooms. Iāve already calculated it, and the cost of building a small building is only slightly higher than the cost of building a house like my current one. Itās not too much more expensive."
