Chapter 227 - The Celebration

However, after the conversation about that was over, the two of them went silent once more.

They were not close to each other and naturally didn't know what they should talk with each other.

It was a bit awkward. 

Zhou Xi An finally opened her mouth once more. "While it might not look like it, we're all in dangerous position right now. There's no telling what Old Man Long will do should he found out that we're all playing game with him."

Yu Yan was stunned. She was thinking of finding some light topics to talk with the other party but instead got pulled into this heavy one. Internally, Yu Yan wanted to cry but no tears came out.

"That's…"

"Sorry, I can't help but say this." Zhou Xi An passed a look at Yu Yan. She then looked at Long Ao Jiang. "Let's have a party in the future when everything is over, alright?"

"Sure." Yu Yan readily agreed while she held back the urge to cry.

Afterwards, the two of them didn't talk anymore as they headed back to the store. They could see Long Shu Ting and Long Ying were standing close to each other. Yu Yan's eyes landed on Long Ying's that was holding a cigarette.

Long Ying noticed Yu Yan's gaze and swiftly threw the cigarette away. His action made his older brother shot him a contemptuous look before he walked to his wife. "Let's go back."

"En. Ao Jiang, say goodbye to auntie."

"Bye, bye, Auntie!" Long Ao Jiang waved her small hands.

Yu Yan naturally waved her hand too and looked at Long Ao Jiang with clear loving gaze. Sensing her trace of longing, Long Ying began to think that they hadn't worked hard enough at night time.

"Do you have nice talk with your first brother?" Yu Yan shot a look at Long Ying.

Long Ying nodded. "We talked about some matters. Do you want to return back now?"

"Now?" Yu Yan glanced at the store because she had promised Lei Xing YI and Kang San Hai that if the opening was successful, they would have dinner together to celebrate it.

Noticing his wife's gaze, Long Ying sighed. He could only rub her head once more. "Alright, we'll stay here."

"Yes~!"

It was already evening and the store would close before dinner time. Yu Yan no longer stayed at the back garden and instead headed to the third floor of the store. The third floor was designed to be their temporarily living space should they needed to stay over.

Of course, the celebration would be held here too for today. They were all too lazy to pick other places.

"What should I order for celebration?" Yu Yan looked at the list of food and her lips twitched. She glanced at Lei Xing Yi, who had just come up. 

Lei Xing Yi froze in her steps and tilted her head. Did she do something wrong?

"Why did you order five big size pizzas?" Yu Yan glared at Lei Xing Yi. Did she think they all could eat five pizzas? Not to mention, she also ordered several other foods alongside the pizzas.

"Celebration naturally needs pizza!" Lai Xing Yi pursed her lips. "I also order several noodles…."

"Don't tell me you're ordering longevity noodles?"

"What? They're also good for celebration. We want this success to last for a long time."

Yu Yan resisted the urge to roll her eyes and threw the list in her hand to Lei Xing Yi. In any case, she knew that her cousin only did this because that young girl wanted to eat. As for whether they can finish all or not didn't matter since they could store the rest of the food in the refrigerator.

Creak!

The door opened and Kang San Hai walked in. He was dressed neatly, a bit different from how frivolous he usually looked like. Upon seeing the two of them, he grinned widely.

"The opening is a huge success! There are a lot of media who are spreading the news especially because Mr. Long Shu Ting appeared!" Kang San Hai didn't even greet them as he shouted happily.

He put several newspapers on the table. One of them had picture of when Long Shu Ting shook hands with Lei Xing Yi.

Lei Xing Yi smiled widely. "Heh, the reporters will surely go crazy if they know that Mr. Long Shu Ting didn't only come but he also become one of the shareholders."

When they were talking just now, Long Shu Ting told her that he wanted to be one of the shareholders. Lei Xing Yi couldn't give him a lot of the shares so he only bought a little portion. 

But that alone already earned her a lot of money.

"Woah, are you going to tell that to the reporters?"

"Are you crazy? I will not spread it without his permission!" Lei Xing Yi shuddered at the thought of incurring Long Shu Ting's wrath. Naturally, she definitely couldn't try her luck when facing someone influential like him.

"Alright, alright." Kang San Hai then greeted the other two in the room.

Yu Yan was amused at her cousin's action. She then recalled something. "Right, who aren't you present during the opening ceremony just now?"

"I'm going on a date."

"A date?" Yu Yan arched her eyebrows. If Kang San Hai finally had a girlfriend, that surely calls for celebration. Xiao Han Yu, his mother, had been longing for him to have a girlfriend so that the playboy could settle down.

Kang San Hai scratched the back of his head. "She's not my girlfriend. I only go on a date as a promise with her friend. Tomorrow, I'll go on a date with another girl…"

Before Kang San Hai could finish speaking, Lei Xing Yi had already thrown a book to his face.. She knew very well that the woman who was with her cousin was her friend since she was the one who introduced them. But to think he had the gall to arrange the date on the same date as their opening ceremony!
