Chapter 59: You’re In Trouble. You’re In Love

Yan Yinlan had said it casually, and he didn’t expect Yan Yunge to pry further. Even though he didn’t understand the adults’ issues, he shook his head as if he was mature enough. “Dad, you’re in trouble. You’re in love.”

Yan Yinlan was so confident in his words that Yan Yunge felt lost. He shifted his gaze away from Yan Yinlan and swallowed the lump in his throat. “I just thought that since she’s married to me, she has to follow our agreed terms. I wouldn’t want her to cheat on me,” he explained guiltily. “You’ll understand when you grow up.”

Yan Yinlan snickered. His father was a stubborn man, and he had no intention of exposing him. “All right, then. I can teach you a few moves.” He grinned and moved closer to Yan Yunge. “I do wish Mom and Dad would stay together forever.”

Yan Yunge patted Yan Yinlan’s head in satisfaction. “That’s right. That’s my good kid.”

Yan Yinlan nodded, turned the opposite way, and bolted.

Yan Yunge stood confused. Just moments ago, the kid promised that he would teach him how to get girls. Now, he bailed on him?

But minutes later, Yan Yinlan came back with a few storybooks.

“What are these for?” Yan Yunge asked in curiosity.

“These are all my storybooks.” Yan Yinlan pointed at the books in front of him proudly. “Although I’ve never chased after a girl or been in a relationship, I’ve read many stories about princes and princesses.”

Listening to him talking about stuff like this in all seriousness had triggered Yan Yunge’s interest.

“Dad, you only have to read how the prince goes after the princess. Then, you’ll know how hard you have to work to make Mom fall for you,” Yan Yinlan suggested.

Only then did Yan Yunge realize he had taken everything as they were without further thought. As he was too eager to solve the Lu Xiao situation, he couldn’t believe he had listened to a kid’s advice. Though speechless, he took the books from Yan Yinlan.

“Okay, Dad, you should go and read them,” Yan Yinlan urged. “I should go back to sleep too.”

Yan Yunge nodded. Before he reached his room, his mother appeared out of the blue.

“Where were you?” Yan Yunge’s mother asked. Her gaze moved to the storybooks in his arms, and her confusion increased. As a mother, she knew her child best. It was weird as she had never noticed he was still young at heart.

“I was talking to Yan Yinlan.” Yan Yunge smiled. “Is there anything you’d like to tell me?”

Yan Yunge’s mother nodded, and she pushed the thought about the storybooks to the back of her head. “It’s about the CEO position. When would you be taking the reign over?” Her tone was stern. “Many are coveting the position. I suggest you do it tomorrow.”

Yan Yunge had previously considered the issue, too. Under the current circumstances, it was best to take over as soon as possible. Just as he was about to answer, he thought of Lu An’an.

The image of Lu Xiao and Lu An’an talking and laughing together appeared in front of him again. Something told him that he couldn’t just return to his company, allowing them to bond.

“Mom, I’ve been feeling a little unwell recently. I’m not sure if it’s because of the intense rehab…” Yan Yunge creased his brows deliberately.

Yan Yunge’s mother couldn’t stand seeing him like that, and her heart ached. “You should take another few days off. I’ll let your grandfather know about it.”

Yan Yunge nodded, secretly rejoicing.

After Grandfather Yan had returned the presidential position to Yan Yunge at the party, Lu An’an thought Yan Yunge would be preparing for his return soon. It was unexpected that he told her he felt ill the next day.

“Weren’t you doing better? Why are you feeling unwell again?” Lu An’an questioned.
