My aloof sister is very good at pampering people

It should be that Wu Ziqi and Xiao Shuishui contributed some efforts in this, especially Xiao Shuishui, since he is already the official successor and his efforts must have been greater.

Moreover, they have already reached a series of cooperation that can make their partners stronger, so I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to be unwilling to do so.

Ye Mo looked at Lin Jie curiously and asked, "Are they the guests who came to the bar last time?"

Lin Jie nodded, but his eyes were still a little strange: "Yes, didn't I tell you before? I'm just wondering why they didn't tell me about what they did... At least they should take credit for it."

Chu Lu smiled slightly and said calmly: "See, compared to them telling you directly to take credit, this kind of casual knowledge can win more favor from you."

Lin Jie smiled softly: "Aren't they afraid that I won't know about it?"

Chu Lu shook her head: "It's impossible. Old Ye's progress has suddenly become smooth. He must figure it out, because you don't know whether someone is helping you or someone is deliberately giving in to let you let down your guard."

Lin Jie understood. So that's what was going on. Now it made sense.

"What kind of cooperation have you reached with them?" Chu Lu asked.

Ye Mo also cast a curious look. Although she had no interest in interfering in business matters, it was okay for her to simply stand aside and watch the fun.

Lin Jie narrowed his eyes slightly and looked ahead, saying: "The cooperation project is limited to some preliminary cooperation with Datang Group. More cooperation focuses on Mustard Entertainment Company, mainly to promote and publicize the products."

Chu Lu was a little surprised: "No further requests?"

Lin Jie smiled and said, "Perhaps they also know that they can't take too big a step, so they are just cautiously testing this possibility. But what surprised me is that without any news, they were able to calculate my actual position in the Datang Group based on a small amount of intelligence."

Chu Lu chuckled softly: "So that's what I said, there are no real fools in this position."

Ye Mo put his hands behind his head and sighed, "It's better to be a fool. Fools have no worries. You guys are so tired of living every day, fighting against each other."

Chu Lu couldn't help but say, "These things should have been done by you and Xiao Lin together. You're not stupid, and you're good at it, but you're unwilling to help. Now Xiao Lin will be under a lot of pressure in the future."

Ye Mo stuck out her tongue playfully: "Let's talk about the future later. I believe Lin Jiejie can keep things stable. If he really can't, believe me, I won't sit idly by."

Chu Lu looked at her daughter, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise... What she said was exactly the same as what she said when she was young.

At that time, his father also wanted to pass the company to himself. He did not trust Ye Yuan at all and thought that this boy liked Chu Lu just for money.

But Chu Lu at that time didn't like taking over the bus affairs at all. She would rather be an elementary school teacher... So after her father had no choice but to hand over the company to Ye Yuan, Chu Lu had no interest in the company's affairs.

It’s just that now outsiders know that Datang Group has been reborn under Ye Yuan’s leadership and is doing better and better, but they have never thought that doing business is not that simple.

Even though there was support from the country in that era, one wrong move could lead to a complete loss.

During those ten years, the Datang Group had encountered countless crises, and every crisis left Ye Yuan exhausted. Chu Lu couldn't bear to see it and felt sorry for him, so she finally embarked on the path of doing business.

As the saying goes, when a husband and wife are of one mind, they can accomplish anything. With the help of Chu Lu, a business genius, Ye Yuan's future path gradually became much easier.

So isn’t Ye Mo today the same person as he was decades ago?

Chu Lu thought to herself, the development of the story is really interesting.

Ye Mo is talented in business, just like Chu Lu was back then.

When everyone was criticizing and accusing Ye Yuan of "forgetting his roots", only Chu Lu keenly discovered the future value of the Internet and e-commerce industries, so she silently supported Ye Yuan, and finally the current Datang Group was established.

"You," Chu Lu smiled gently, "I heard that you are planning to have a second child? Why are you planning to have a second child while Xiaomo is filming?"

Lin Jie explained with a slight headache: "It will be a while before the filming is finished, and then I can complete the preparations for pregnancy and childbirth before the release of the movie, so that it won't give fans the feeling that I have been away from the screen for a long time."

Ye Mo's eyes lit up: "Yes, that's the idea."

Chu Lu was silent for a while: "Can your body handle it? Don't lose sight of the big picture and ruin your body for fame."

Ye Mo was very confident about this and patted his chest to say that there was no problem.

Lin Jie glanced at her with a little concern. Normally, Lin Jie was very confident that Ye Mo could take care of herself, but since she made this suggestion, Lin Jie specially sent several nutritionists and private doctors to be by Ye Mo's side, planning rest time and healthy diet for her every day, trying to let her complete the highest quality rest in the shortest time, and then use the rest of the time to do what she wants.

"Forget it, forget it, let you guys make a fuss." Chu Lu yawned, "You young people just need to be careful with yourselves. I'm really sleepy right now. I'm not like you guys who stay up late like drinking water and eating."

Lin Jie and Ye Mo looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

That's right. For the young people nowadays, going to bed at 11 or 2 o'clock is considered early, 1 or 2 o'clock is considered normal sleeping time, 3 or 4 o'clock is considered a little late, and 5 or 6 o'clock is considered the real late night... As for staying up all night, that is not considered staying up late.

Seeing the two of them still laughing in front, Chu Lu felt a little helpless. She was kindly reminding them and caring about them, but they were still there grinning... There are some things that you may not feel a big deal about when you are young, but you will know the pain when you are older.

"I'm talking to you seriously. Although your work makes your life irregular, you should still get enough rest. Eat three meals a day when you can, and don't eat irregularly," Chu Lu is like many mothers. Once she starts talking, she can't stop. "I'm really impressed by you two. You're already parents, but you don't know how to take care of your health. Look at other stars. They all have assistants, agents, and a lot of teams, as well as special nutritionists and trainers. They live a life of having everything they want, but you two are weird! One of you doesn't even have an agent or an assistant, and asks Zi Su to run around for you. The other one just takes care of Yun Duo... Do you two have no money or what?"

Lin Jie bit his lip to hold back his laughter, while Ye Mo was stunned. He held his head, wailed, and then burst into laughter.

"Mom, stop talking, haha!"

The two of them are really like oddities in the entertainment industry. They have no team and no bodyguards. As a girl, Ye Mo still has one or two bodyguards, plus the ones arranged for her by Ye Yuan and Lin Jie, there are about four or five bodyguards. But Lin Jie is single and goes everywhere alone. He chooses his makeup and clothes according to his own preferences and even often borrows other people's makeup artists.

Chu Lu became more and more excited as she spoke: "You two have made a lot of money in the past few years. Can't you afford to support a team? Or do you want me to build one for you?"

Lin Jie smiled bitterly: "Go back and make arrangements, go back and make arrangements."

Chu Lu didn't mean anything else, she just felt that they were already very tired from work, and it would be the same if some things were handed over to others... After all, they also have to work and make money, so it's a good thing for you, me, and everyone else.

The car quickly returned to the big villa in Magic City. The lights were still on in the villa, and it seemed that Ye Yuan was not asleep.

After getting off the car, Chu Lu looked at Lin Jie with a smile and said softly: "Your father is not asleep. He is waiting for you to come back and chat with you... Well, ask him clearly. He is actually very lonely."

Lin Jie nodded, then gently picked up Xiao Xiao, who had fallen asleep, and put her in Ye Mo's arms, then made a gesture to her. Ye Mo nodded, motioning him to go.

Lin Jie walked towards the back garden with some things in his hands.

In the back garden, Lin Jie saw Ye Yuan.

It was the same feeling as the first time I saw Ye Yuan. He did not give people the impression of being a ruthless and sinister business tycoon as others said, but rather a university professor who exuded the scent of books.

Seeing Lin Jie coming, Ye Yuan smiled slightly, pointed to the seat in front of him, and motioned for him to sit down.

But Lin Jie did not sit opposite him. Instead, he placed the things in front of him with a smile and sat down on the lounge chair next to him to cool off.

Ye Yuan showed a slightly surprised expression on his face, and then he laughed: "So sometimes I feel that you are different from other people, and you are a little annoying."

Lin Jie lay on the recliner, listening to his father-in-law's comments and curled his lips: "Dad, we don't need to care about those unnecessary rules, right?"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry about it."

Ye Yuan didn't mind Lin Jie being casual in front of him. On the contrary, he quite liked the feeling of being free to get along with others. If Lin Jie was still like those young guys and was polite when he saw him, then Ye Yuan would really think he was annoying.

"When we first met, you seemed just as casual and indifferent." Ye Yuan opened the things Lin Jie brought for him, which contained some cold dishes and some white wine... Of course, a whole pack of cigarettes was also inevitable.

"Do you smoke Liquan?" Ye Yuan asked when he saw the cigarette.

Lin Jie sat up from the recliner, smiled and said, "I smoke one occasionally."

"Liqun was only 11 or 12 yuan back then, but now the price has increased to 20 yuan." Ye Yuan opened the package, took out a cigarette and was about to use his lighter to light it, but Lin Jie was already prepared and lit it for him with a smile.

"Would you like one?" Ye Yuan asked with a smile.

Lin Jie did not refuse, took the cigarette, lit it and started smoking.

"I thought you would smoke those fancy foreign cigarettes that look fancy but aren't good to smoke at all."

"I'm not interested in those, but Song Qingfeng and the others like to smoke." Lin Jie said with a smile.

"Did you do that in Kyoto?" Ye Yuan suddenly asked.

Lin Jie shook his head: "I didn't know about it, and they didn't tell me. If my mother hadn't told me in the car today, I wouldn't have known about this situation."

Ye Yuan nodded slightly and said calmly: "If they don't bring it up, just pretend you don't know. There's no need to owe them a big favor for such a small matter."

Lin Jie chuckled: "That's what I thought. Since they don't want to say it openly, I will pretend that I don't know."

Hearing Lin Jie's words, Ye Yuan looked at Lin Jie with interest: "It seems that I know you well."

Lin Jie put away his smile and said, "I'm not stupid. Some people prefer others not to talk about this kind of thing, but I'm the opposite. Since you choose not to say it, I will really pretend that I don't know."

"Have you tried to find out the makeup brands of those two girls?" Ye Yuan unscrewed the cap of the wine, took a sip, then looked at Lin Jie and complained, "You didn't even bring me some good wine. You just bought me some cheap wine from roadside stores all day long."

Lin Jie smiled bitterly: "I thought you liked to drink."

"Bullshit!" Ye Yuan said, "If I like to drink, I won't buy it myself. Why do I keep so many good wines at home? You kid, you don't even buy a bottle of Moutai."

Lin Jie still smiled bitterly... How to say it, he saw that Ye Yuan seemed to miss his previous life, so he bought wine and cigarettes like ordinary people, or he might have a lot of expensive wines and beverages sent by others at home, and he could just bring them over.

Ye Yuan glanced at him indifferently: "Why are you so popular this year for no apparent reason?"

Lin Jie touched his nose: "I don't know either."

To say that he became popular for no apparent reason seems both right and wrong.

First, it is a big production, second, the cast is luxurious, and third, the shooting and script are all very good, so Lin Jie felt that the drama would at least not be too bad, but he did not expect it to be such a huge hit.

"Maybe it's because there aren't many dramas with male protagonists in the industry right now." Lin Jie shrugged and said.

"Now that you're famous, you should make good use of it. Don't be shy and unwilling to come out." Ye Yuan said calmly while eating, "I don't know where you bought the cold dishes. They don't look fresh and delicious."

Lin Jie: "..."

He glanced at the night sky awkwardly and pretended not to hear.

Although he said it was not tasty, Ye Yuan did not put down his chopsticks. He drank slowly while eating. He glanced at Lin Jie and said, "You don't want to eat?"

Lin Jie thought about it, sat down in front of Ye Yuan again, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Chu Lu said that Ye Yuan was very lonely, so why couldn't Lin Jie understand?

Ye Yuan has given up most of his family and friendships, and he does have quite a few social engagements and parties on weekdays, but those are always motivated by interests and purposes.

Who doesn’t want to have the purest friendship?

Moreover, Ye Yuan is not like Lin Jie, who has many close friends around him. What he does has always been lonely and hard, but he cannot always tell these things to Chu Lu, so confiding in Lin Jie is also a good choice.

Lin Jie listened carefully to what Ye Yuan was telling him about the company. He also tried hard to write down what Ye Yuan said, because what Ye Yuan was facing now would be his business in the future.

But Ye Yuan was not a chatterbox. He started talking about the past, and his words were not so formal. He looked at the wine glass in his hand and couldn't help cursing, "Damn it, why is it even harder to drink than before?"

Lin Jie couldn't help laughing: "Nowadays, businessmen are all for profit, who cares about the taste?"

"Don't be that kind of businessman." Ye Yuan shook his head: "Although I am also a businessman who puts profit first, I cannot be a dishonest businessman."

"Don't worry, Dad. I won't be a profiteer."

"How are your parents doing?" Ye Yuan asked.

When talking about his parents, Lin Jie wanted to laugh but couldn't: "They are having a great time now. It seems like they are going abroad for fun soon."

Ye Yuan smiled slightly, and there seemed to be some envy in his eyes: "You said how nice it would be to be like your parents. They don't make much money every year, but they have enough free time to do what they want and don't have to worry too much about the company."

Lin Jie smiled gently: "I also have to thank you for your help, Dad. I have opened a factory that is neither too big nor too small, which can be regarded as enjoying the blessing in advance."

Ye Yuan nodded in agreement: "After working so hard for so long, it's time to enjoy yourself."

Lin Jie wanted to meet them more often, but his parents seemed to be having a lot of fun and were not very happy to meet him...

Lin Jie didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this, but he didn't force it. Although he didn't meet his daughter-in-law and granddaughter very often, they met each other more often than he did with video calls.

Lin Jie was still sighing, when he looked up he saw Ye Yuan's half-smile. He immediately turned his head away feeling guilty.

Doesn’t he know what Ye Yuan means?

I guess Ye Yuan also wanted Lin Jie to say those words... something like you have worked hard, you can retire early and enjoy life or something like that.

But is Lin Jie so stupid?

of course not!

Lin Jie would not be so stupid as to say these words directly to cater to the atmosphere at this time... Doesn't he want to take over the company so early?

What's more, he felt that hiding behind the scenes and taking over now was also a good choice.

Ye Yuan shook his head: "You are such a boring person, you are very thoughtful, but you are also very smart, which makes people speechless."

Lin Jie pursed his lips, a little doubtful: "Am I thinking too much?"

Ye Yuan looked at him with a slightly teasing look in his eyes: "Don't you think too much? Ask yourself."

Lin Jie lowered his eyes slightly and shrugged: "Maybe."
