"That thing is the ghost pepper from India, once the hottest chili in the world. Not to ntion eating it, even just holding it with your hand will cause a stinging sensation; most people can't handle it."
Yang Yan said with a smile.
"Alright, have you guys had enough to eat?"
Yang Yan looked at Chen Xi and asked.
"I'm full."
Chen Xi nodded and instinctively rubbed her belly.
"Since that's the case, let's call it a day for now! We'll take you ho."
Yang Yan said with a smile.
The three of them took a taxi straight to Chen Xi's house.
In the car, when Chen Xi ntioned the location, the taxi driver instinctively turned his head to take a look at her.
At first, Yang Yan didn't understand what that look ant, but when the taxi arrived at the destination, he understood why the driver had that expression.
It was a big courtyard, with old-style Western houses.
You have to know, in the expensive real estate of East Sea City, people who can live in such houses often have extraordinary status.
This is not sothing you can buy just with money.
After saying goodbye to Chen Xi, Yang Yan and Zhou Hanyu took the taxi back to the apartnt.
"That girl's family is even more impressive than I imagined!"
Yang Yan couldn't help but say.
"Impressive? Kid, it's more than impressive, it's out of this world! That place isn't sowhere you can live just with a bit of background."
Taxi drivers are usually very talkative, but after Chen Xi ntioned the address, he stayed silent.
Now that the main subject had left the car, and Yang Yan made a comnt, the driver couldn't help but start talking.
With nothing else to do, Yang Yan couldn't help but ask:
"Master, what's so special about this place?"
The taxi driver chuckled:
"If you ask ordinary people, they might not know, but we taxi drivers are very familiar with this kind of place. It's the East Sea City's military district compound, the most famous military area in the city."
"Military area? What do you an?"
Zhou Hanyu asked the taxi driver, clearly hearing this term for the first ti.
"Well, 'military area' is what we drivers jokingly call it, aning it's where all the high-ranking military officers' families live. By the way, have you heard of Li Shuai?"
The taxi driver said with a smile.
"Heard of him, what about him?"
Yang Yan asked curiously.
He didn't expect that guy to be so famous that even a taxi driver would know him.
"He's the most notorious playboy in all of East Sea! In the past, he and a group of fellow second-generation officials would block the Inner Ring Bridge at night to race cars, forcing us taxi drivers to take big detours. Everyone complained, but nobody dared to say anything."
The taxi driver said with so resentnt.
"Oh? He could actually do that? Blocking a road, and nobody stopped him?"
Zhou Hanyu asked with a frown.
"Stop him? Who would dare? His father is the commander of the East Sea military district. But in the past two years, things have improved a lot; you don't hear about them blocking roads anymore. His family lives right in there."
The taxi driver said mysteriously.
Yang Yan couldn't help but chuckle.
The saying goes, a prodigal who returns is worth more than gold, no wonder that day when Li Shuai encountered that Second Generation of the Black, so many brothers showed up.
"Alright, we're here."
The taxi driver pulled the car to the side of the road and said with a smile.
After paying the fare and getting out of the car, Yang Yan stretched with a long yawn:
"Finally here, tomorrow your sister's jewelry store opens, are you going?"
"No, I have classes tomorrow, and there's nothing interesting about that kind of thing."
After speaking, Zhou Hanyu went inside first.
Zhou Hanyun had already co back, and was sitting on the sofa reading a docunt.
Seeing Yang Yan and Zhou Hanyu return, she asked:
"Where did you go? Why are you back so late?"
"Went to the food festival for a bit, why? Aren't you ready for tomorrow yet?"
Yang Yan asked, looking at Zhou Hanyun.
"Most of it is done, just the details left."
Hanyun replied with a smile.
Opening a jewelry store has always been her dream, previously unattainable due to family finances, but now it's possible thanks to Yang Yan, so she gives it her all.
"Where are Cai'Er and Ruyi?"
Zhou Hanyu asked.
Coming ho, she didn't see her two loyal little followers, making Miss Zhou Er look uneasy holding a limited edition teddy bear.
Yang Yan couldn't help but maliciously guess that this Little Demoness was again having a "childish outburst," wanting to show off her new toy to her friends.
"They went to the Intoxicated Bar. Zhuge Wushuang ca to pick them up, said there was sothing to discuss with them."
Zhou Hanyun said.
Whether it was Cai'Er or Ruyi, she knew their identities, so she didn't find it surprising.
Hearing that Zhuge Wushuang took them away, Zhou Hanyu sighed lightly, held her limited edition teddy bear, and went directly to her room to rest.
After a whole day of shopping, she was a bit tired too.
Zhou Hanyun kept circling and marking on the docunt until it was quite late in the night without any intention of stopping.
Yang Yan silently stayed by her side the whole ti.
After finishing the last page of the docunt and putting down her pen, Zhou Hanyun finally noticed Yang Yan still sitting there.
"Why aren't you resting?"
Zhou Hanyun asked.
"Didn't want you to feel lonely! Earning money is important, but so is health. If you keep working at this intensity, your body can't handle it."
Yang Yan said with so concern.
To put it bluntly, Zhou Hanyun was a workaholic.
She's been working like this for more than just a day or two.
Moreover, her mind was always tightly wound.
Yang Yan truly worried about her health failing.
"Hmm!"
Zhou Hanyun nodded lightly and then said:
"A long-ti dream is about to co true, I've been too excited to sleep these days. I used to work hard for this family, for the Zhou Clan, but now I work for my dream."
"With different goals, naturally, the enthusiasm for work is different. After tomorrow, I want to visit other provinces to investigate, to see if I can expand the jewelry business beyond here."
"If possible, I'd like to make jewelry the main focus of the Zhou Clan. After all, this is my major, and also my passion."
Seeing her talk more and more excitedly, Yang Yan couldn't help but feel emotional, giving a nonchalant smile:
"Alright, do as you like! But still, as always, health is wealth, regardless of duty or dreams, the most important thing is your health. After all, you're my wife! If you fall, I would be very heartbroken."
Yang Yan couldn't help but tease at the end, and before Zhou Hanyun could respond, he turned around and walked into his room.
"Mm!"
Although Zhou Hanyun's voice was small, Yang Yan still heard it.
Just as he wanted to turn back and say sothing more, Zhou Hanyun, with a blush on her face, had already dashed back to her room.
