Chapter 1814: The Brother-in-Law's Advice

“Not going home for dinner, I’m taking you to meet someone.”

Mr. Bo raised an eyebrow, “Male or female?”

Nan Jiaojiao lay on his chest, a mischievous smile on her lips, “Male.”

He immediately sifted through Nan Jiaojiao’s circle of friends in his mind.

“Brother Pei?”

She pouted, refused to answer, tapped the partition in front, and when Han Chuan lowered it, she gave an address.

The place was far from here, but close to Feisheng. It was a Jianghu cuisine restaurant, with decent but not overly elegant decor, known for its cleanliness and lively atmosphere. The kitchen was on the right as you entered, partly covered by a curtain.

Nan Jiaojiao mentioned the name of the private room, and the waiter led them in.

The door was slightly ajar, pushed open to see a man side-on to the entrance, draping his coat over the chair back.

“You’ve arrived?”

The man stood from the chair and walked over to hold the door open.

Nan Jiaojiao called out loudly, “Brother.”

“Good girl.”

Ye Jun signaled with his eyes inside, then said to Mr. Bo, “Mr. Bo, come on in, I just arrived too and ordered some dishes, see if there’s anything else you’d like.”

He asked the waiter for a menu.

Ye Jun handed it to Mr. Bo, who took it and passed it to Nan Jiaojiao.

“Hello, Mr. Ye.”

He extended his right hand, and Ye Jun loosely shook it.

The room wasn’t large, with a square dining table in the middle. After they sat down, Ye Jun was across from them.

Nan Jiaojiao added a few dishes and handed them to the waiter.

“Jun asked me to bring you here to meet him.”

Nan Jiaojiao spoke abruptly, and Ye Jun clarified: “This girl sent the wedding invitation to my company. My assistant thought it was just an ordinary invitation, so he didn’t give it to me. Today, when I was in his office looking for some documents, I accidentally found it. She’s quite something, a wedding is such a big deal, not telling me in person and thinking sending it is enough notification, it’s outrageous.”

Mr. Bo wasn’t surprised at all, “Jiaojiao has always been scatterbrained, it’s my fault, she took some invitations and said she wanted to personally give them to a few important friends, I didn’t expect she included you. By rights, Mr. Ye’s invitation should have been solemnly delivered to you by me.”

Ye Jun laughed, “I meant nothing else by it, Mr. Bo also knows Jiaojiao’s background, she’s not close with the Ye family, and I’m already very glad she thought to invite me. Before the wedding, someone from the bride’s side should speak on her behalf. I’m not much of a talker, not good at saying other things, so—”

Ye Jun poured two cups of tea, handed one to Mr. Bo, “I substitute tea for wine, I raise a cup. In the future, I entrust my sister to you, hope you treat her well. If there is conflict, feel free to speak to me, I’ll try to persuade her.”

Mr. Bo smiled, raised his cup, and drank it down.

Ye Jun added, “Jiaojiao has a bit of a temper, Mr. Bo, please be patient with her. But she has a good heart, she’s not a bad kid. If possible, Mr. Bo, accommodate her when you can, and if you can’t, don’t resort to any physical measures, it’s troublesome for you.”

Mr. Bo said, “I won’t, I couldn’t bear to.”

Ye Jun replied with a “Good,” and couldn’t say anything else.

His relationship with Nan Jiaojiao was awkward, she didn’t grow up in front of him, and he didn’t understand her well. When he first found out she was with Mr. Bo, Ye Jun indeed worried for a long time, even quietly investigated. The Bo family noticed his moves but allowed it, showing their character.

He’s also relieved, grateful Nan Jiaojiao isn’t close to the Ye family.
