Chapter 552: It's Not Hard to Be a Good Person

“Mmm, she’s pretty.”

Yeh Hannian squinted his eyes as he looked at her, the smile in his eyes pausing inadvertently for a moment, only to then quickly return to normal.

“Okay, Daddy will think of a way to see if he can invite the person.”

“Really?”

Yeh Tuantuan’s little feet swung up and down, and suddenly her joyful expression retracted, “Daddy, you can’t force someone to come.

It’s not good to always bully people; it would make others very uncomfortable.”

He hadn’t even done anything yet, and the little one was already worrying that he would use his power to pressure someone into agreeing.

They hadn’t even met face to face.

Isn’t this called—

Empathy?

“Don’t worry, Daddy won’t.

This time Daddy will definitely be polite.”

“Mmm!”

Tuantuan was genuinely happy, her little feet moving even more joyfully, her hands grasping the seat belt as she looked out the window at the receding scenery.

“Young Master…” Yeh Xiao turned halfway around, words on the verge of his lips, but he hesitated.

He had just received news that one of their strongholds in Country Y had been taken down.

It was Bo Yanching’s doing.

Bo Yanching didn’t even bother to hide his actions, blatantly robbing them, clearly trying to draw out the snake.

The consecutive losses, the things stolen and destroyed, added up to almost a quarter’s profit.

Yeh Hannian waved his hand dismissively, “It’s fine, let him do as he pleases.

How big can he make it?

That money can be considered the toll I paid for coming here.”

Yeh Xiao wore a complex expression.

Doesn’t he think it’s a bit too expensive?

“Daddy, what’s a ‘toll’?”

“You see,” Yeh Hannian unbuckled Tuantuan’s seat belt and lifted her onto his lap, pointing to the toll station ahead, “that’s a toll station, and everyone who passes through there must pay a toll, just like Daddy.”

Tuantuan nodded, appearing to understand but not quite, then wore a face of deep satisfaction, “Daddy, being a good person isn’t that hard, right?”

Yeh Hannian: “…”

…

When Nan Jiaojiao woke up, Bo Yanching was still at home.

They had breakfast together.

Her classes were later in the morning, so she didn’t ask Bo Yanching to drive her.

Afterward, she called Elder Lu.

She wanted to thank Elder Lu for his help.

She didn’t have time last night and planned to invite Elder Lu and Bo Yanching to lunch, only to find out that the elder had just landed.

“Okay, what’s the point of a meal?

If you really had me in your heart, would you have left me hanging all night?”

Nan Jiaojiao pressed her lips together, well aware that Elder Lu loved to tease and play the senior card, with eight out of ten statements being jokes.

Still, she humbled herself and pleaded for mercy: “Elder Lu…”

Elder Lu laughed heartily: “I’m just teasing you, you girl, still can’t take a joke like when you were little.

Alright, I have things to handle at the association; I needed to come back personally, otherwise, I would’ve stayed in Rongcheng City for a couple of days to play with you.

Wait for the New Year’s celebration.

When I visit your grandfather, you can make it up to me with a meal then.”

Nan Jiaojiao agreed crisply: “Definitely.

When you visit Green City, Grandpa and I will surely treat you well.”

“Just you and that old man of yours?”

Elder Lu’s voice hinted at deeper meaning as he paused: “That Bo lad isn’t coming?”

Nan Jiaojiao was startled for a moment, then smiled and looked down, “He will.”

“He is, huh?

Good, good, good.

As long as he comes.

I met him first, and I must brag about it in front of Old Man Nan.”

Nan Jiaojiao: “…”

Is this what they call being a big kid at heart?

After hanging up the phone, Nan Jiaojiao went online to search and found that the news of Chen Man impersonating a designer from Shen’s was on the top headlines, with multiple outlets competing to report it.
