Chapter 1678: Chapter 1678: Help Him Keep the Secret
“Don’t go to the company today. Stay home and rest well. I’ll help you apply for leave.”
Qin Youxuan smiled and tucked her in, preparing to leave.
Just as she reached the door, Ye Mingmei suddenly called out to her, “Qin Youxuan…”
“…”
Qin Youxuan paused, turned back in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
“You and Senior… Senior, he…” Ye Mingmei hesitated.
She really wanted Qin Youxuan to talk to Jin Chenye, as she didn’t want to see such a good man remain lonely for the rest of his life.
But if she mentioned it, she feared that the relationship between Qin Youxuan and Jin Chenye would become awkward.
That didn’t seem to be a good approach either.
Not saying it, though, left her feeling stifled.
“What about my brother? Did something happen?” Qin Youxuan took a few steps back to her side and looked at her somewhat unexpectedly.
This was the first time Ye Mingmei had brought up Jin Chenye in front of her, and Qin Youxuan felt a bit delighted, “Do you guys have some new developments?”
“…No, you’re thinking too much.” Ye Mingmei’s face turned red with embarrassment, and she immediately explained.
“It’s just that I see Senior has been managing Ye Group for us. He has his own company too, and he’s always away, doesn’t it matter?”
In the end, Ye Mingmei didn’t say it out loud.
She was convinced that Jin Chenye didn’t wish for his guardian role to burden the woman he loved.
She couldn’t help him with much, but she could help him keep this secret.
Ye Mingmei’s eyes dimmed while quietly watching Qin Youxuan, with a hint of envy flashing in them.
Not to mention two, even just one man who’s wholeheartedly devoted to her would be enough.
Yet whether it was Dan Hanjie or Jin Chenye, their eyes were only on Qin Youxuan.
“I’ve thought about that too. Once everything calms down, I’ll hire a professional management team to manage the group, and we sisters will just supervise. If anything arises, we can consult Dan Hanjie for opinions, and it won’t trouble my brother for too long.”
Qin Youxuan explained with a smile, reaching out to touch Ye Mingmei’s cheek.
“If you can win over my brother, then you really won’t have to worry about finding someone to manage.”
“Don’t make fun of me. Senior and I are just friends. He wouldn’t like me.”
“How do you know without trying? You’re just too insecure and shy, which is why Yu Xiuzhun keeps bullying you. Be brave in pursuing your happiness. Nothing is more important than your own happiness, understand?”
Qin Youxuan was genuinely frustrated with her lack of progress.
“Okay.” Ye Mingmei nodded and didn’t say more.
“Then I’ll go now. Rest well.”
Qin Youxuan quickly left the Ye Family.
…
Three in the afternoon.
Qin Youxuan followed Dan Hanjie to the Dan Family’s cemetery.
The large cemetery was quite bustling.
Wreaths lined up from the cemetery gates all the way to Dan Rong’s headstone, with flowers piled up on the stone platform in front of it.
The various banners of condolence were dazzling.
“When he was alive, everyone wished him dead daily. Now that he’s gone, it’s as if they want to bring him back to life. Anyone who doesn’t know might think he was the epitome of brotherly love, filial piety, and fatherly kindness in life.”
Qin Youxuan sheepishly touched her nose and muttered in a low voice.
Her hand was held by Dan Hanjie as they walked quickly, but her bright cat-like eyes kept darting around.
Her gaze landed on Dan Hanxi standing at the grave, her eyes flickering, “He’s really early. If not for the will, I’m afraid he’d forget his own last name.”
