Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 534

Yue Yiming was annoyed: "My son is tanned from training every day, he’s not naturally dark-skinned. It definitely won’t affect the next generation."

Han Jingchen filled his tea mug with water: "Don’t get any ideas about my young lady. To be honest, she already has someone."

Yue Yiming, although he had never met Xinyan, had heard from his old friend and knew she was outstanding. So he genuinely wanted to form a good match between the two families.

Since his old friend had already said that his young lady had someone, he could only take his earlier words as a joke: "Alas, it seems my two lads aren’t lucky enough."

However, he was really curious: "Which rascal has taken your precious young lady away?"

Han Jingchen thought of He Jinxuan, who had called him a few days ago: "That’s confidential, no comment."

Yue Yiming looked at him suspiciously: "You wouldn’t be making up an excuse, would you?"

Han Jingchen blew the foam off his tea mug: "Is there any need for that? It’s not like you don’t know how excellent my young lady is."

Alright then, can we have a pleasant chat or not? It’s really infuriating.

He gulped down the tea in his hand, only to realize after the fact that he’d done something silly. Such good tea, and he hadn’t savored it before gulping it down.

Standing up to refill his cup, he remembered why he had come over: "By the way, I came to talk to you about the coal train. Shouldn’t we have a leadership meeting this afternoon to finalize this matter?"

Han Jingchen nodded and said: "We should have a meeting about it. After all, it concerns the heating for thousands of families this winter. Our railway bureau needs to cooperate well, no slip-ups."

Yue Yiming nodded: "Alright, I’ll have Xiao Jiang notify everyone in a bit. You prepare as well, so we can finalize things this afternoon."

The two chatted idly for a while. When Yue Yiming left, he even snatched half a can of Han Jingchen’s tea leaves.

Han Jingchen laughed and cursed: "You’re acting like a robber over these tea leaves."

Yue Yiming had a matter-of-fact expression: "Who told me I don’t have a considerate young lady? Who told you to always show off in front of me? I can only resort to seizing them."

Saying that, he laughed heartily, took the half-can of tea leaves he snatched, and said: "Thanks, since your young lady is spoken for, I won’t force it.

If she can’t be a daughter-in-law, then give me half of her as my young lady. We’re practically like family, right? From now on, your young lady is my young lady too, and whatever she gives you, I get half."

Han Jingchen was displeased upon hearing this: "Get lost, get lost, get lost. You’re dreaming if you think you can have it all."

Yue Yiming didn’t care how dark his face turned, hugged the half-can of tea leaves he snatched, and left humming a little tune, feeling quite pleased.

Watching him leave, Han Jingchen shook his head and chuckled. This guy has been like this half his life, loving tea as much as his life. If it weren’t for him wanting to share some, did he really think he could snatch it away?

The weekend came around quickly, and He Jinxuan drove over in a borrowed Jeep to pick someone up.

Lately, they both had been busy. Xinyan started studying French as a minor, and was also learning medicine from Mr. Du. On top of that, she was translating foreign medical books brought from Professor Tao. Although translating English was not too difficult for her, there were many technical terms in these medical books that she had to handle carefully.

Luckily, recently the senior apprentice brother had been with their master, teaching her a lot about Western medicine, and also helping her a lot with translating that book. Whenever she encountered something she didn’t understand, she would consult with the senior apprentice brother before continuing, to ensure nothing went wrong.

After all, the senior apprentice brother was a professional and proficient in English. With his help, two-thirds of that book had been translated, but Xinyan didn’t want to hand it over too quickly; staying low-key was better.

Meanwhile, He Jinxuan quickly made a name for himself in the new motorcade after a busy period, taming those unruly troublemakers and earning their admiration: "Yanyan, things have stabilized on my end now. Sili and Siyan are also returning to their father. Going forward, I shouldn’t be too busy. Should we spruce up the house at the family compound?"
