Song Yun, having returned to the Magic Capital, was like a dragon diving into the deep sea; no typhoon or tempest could disturb him.
After resting at home for three or four days, his father-in-law called.
"Dad, what’s up?"
Song Yun answered the phone with a smile.
"You rascal, with all your running around, do you even remember I’m your dad!"
Ye Qingqing’s father spoke with a hint of complaint, if it weren’t for his daughter mentioning the recent events while calling her mother, he would’ve been clueless about the exciting experiences that came with following Song Yun!
"Hahaha, how could I forget you’re my dad! I’ve been out and about and just got back to the Magic Capital a few days ago."
Song Yun hurriedly responded with an apologetic laugh.
Back then, his father-in-law hadn’t looked down on him for being poor and had offered significant help without knowing anything; Song Yun kept all these deeds in his heart.
"Cut the crap, come to my house for dinner today!"
Ye Qingqing’s father said with a stern face, "Plus, I have a task for you."
"Sure thing, see you tonight!"
Song Yun promptly agreed.
He glanced at his phone and saw it was already past four in the afternoon; the days spent idly at home had flown by much faster than he had thought.
He hadn’t expected that, at his level, spending days just playing video games, reading novels, and keeping family company while watching boring TV series could actually be so healing!
"Huang, come help with the stuff!
Song Yun shouted outside.
How could he visit his father-in-law empty-handed? Song Yun didn’t have the audacity to show up without bringing anything.
After he loaded two cars full of items, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Is this stuff enough?"
"It should be... enough, I guess..."
Huang Baoding licked his lips, the cars were packed with everything from wines worth thousands or tens of thousands to ginseng worth millions. The value of what these two cars carried was easily over ten million!
This was just for a visit to the father-in-law’s house...
As someone still new to dating and who hadn’t yet met his girlfriend’s parents, Huang Baoding felt a heavy psychological burden.
"Damn it, I’ve been packing and now it’s almost six o’clock!"
Song Yun looked at his watch and hurried upstairs to call Ye Qingqing.
Ye Qingqing had been quietly watching a movie in the bedroom but was pulled away by Song Yun to go back to her parental home.
Confused, she sat in the car, staring at the fully-packed trunk, and question marks started floating above her head.
"????"
"Honey, are we visiting my family or evacuating?"
Hearing Ye Qingqing’s words, Song Yun laughed awkwardly and said, "Well, it’s been a long while since we visited, right? And Dad has been working hard managing the company, so bringing more gifts is just showing our filial piety!"
"But it shouldn’t be this much!"
Ye Qingqing turned her head, scrutinizing the gifts in the back: "Did you bring that four-hundred-year-old ginseng too?"
"Yeah, I’m taking that back for Dad to brew into his liquor."
Song Yun said proudly, "You have no idea, I’ve processed this ginseng so it’s not as potent anymore, so it’s safe for the elderly to consume without the fear of over-nourishing."
"And that hundred-year-old fleeceflower root, and the hundred-year-old Lingzhi!"
Ye Qingqing, like a fussy housekeeper, nagged from the passenger seat, "We really don’t need to give them all, do we? After all, to our elders, their children are the best gift. We could even go empty-handed, I bet my dad would still welcome us—honey, let’s keep some of it~"
Seeing that Song Yun remained silent, she reached out for the walkie-talkie to signal Huang Baoding, who was following behind, to drive them home.
"Smack!"
Song Yun slapped her hand and said helplessly, "My dear wife, aren’t we going to your home? Why are you so bent on doing things your own way!"
"That’s not true, I’m your woman now~"
Ye Qingqing said coquettishly, "Besides, my dad definitely has all of these things. If we take them home, they might not even use them themselves and end up gifting them away. It’s better for us to keep them for ourselves~ Honey~"
"Tsk, if dad hears you, he’d probably suspect you of being a conniving little thing!"
Song Yun said with a chuckle, "I just hope the little one in your belly doesn’t take after you, or else I’ll have my share of tears in the future."
"No way! If he dares to be unfilial to the family in the future, I’ll spank his bottom until it’s sore!"
Ye Qingqing declared with haughty pride, lifting her chin.
All Song Yun could do was shake his head with a smile.
Upon arriving at the Ye family’s home, when Ye Qingqing’s parents saw so many gifts being unloaded from the car, they were also taken aback!
"What’s all this for! Just coming home is enough, why bring so many things!"

Ye Qingqing’s father said discontentedly as he stepped forward, "It makes me look greedy!
"Hehe, mom and dad, we haven’t visited for a while due to being busy, and these gifts are purely to show our respect for you," Song Yun explained with a grin, "Especially this ginseng, it’s over four hundred years old. Soaking it in alcohol to drink will definitely benefit your health."
"You really... I don’t even know what to say to you."
Ye Qingqing’s father pointed at Song Yun; although his words were reproachful, he was actually quite delighted. After all, his son-in-law had become successful and had never looked down on him. This was great; it meant his daughter hadn’t married the wrong man!
"Come inside, come inside. Your mom cooked herself today, let’s go have dinner!"
Ye Qingqing’s father pulled Song Yun toward the house.
The four of them sat at the dining table, chatting about recent events. As Song Yun shared some of the things he could talk about, the expressions on Ye Qingqing’s parents’ faces became extremely shocked!
It turned out their son-in-law had grown so much in such a short time!
"Dad, you said you had something to discuss with me?"
After a few rounds of drinks, Song Yun asked curiously, "You really don’t need to consult me about company matters, just make the decisions on your own. We’re all family here; there’s no need for such troubles."
"It’s really not about that."
Ye Qingqing’s father took a satisfied sip of his drink and slowly said, "The reason I asked you to come is because of a big opportunity!"
"Tell me, I’m all ears."
"Do you know about the diamonds from South Africa?"
Ye Qingqing’s father said mysteriously, "They’ve come looking for a strong, capable company to collaborate with, to break into the domestic market. And this supplier is a big deal; they’ll only choose one partner for cooperation."
"What’s so special about this supplier?"
Hearing this, Song Yun became interested.
"They have thirty diamond mines over there!"
Ye Qingqing’s father explained cheerfully, "Moreover, this company was established last century and has a history of over a hundred years. Those big international jewelry brands? They all use diamonds from this supplier."
"Holy smokes, that’s pretty impressive."
Song Yun said in surprise, "But our business here isn’t that extensive, right? Compared to those jewelry companies, aren’t we a bit behind?"
"That’s the key! The other party said they only care about capability, not the specific industry. If they choose you, even if you know nothing, they’re willing to send experts to help you build the company structure!"
