Chapter 99: What Should I Do If I Discover My Husband Is A Tycoon After Marriage?
Bai Shuruo and her sister parted ways at the airport.
"Sister, are you really not coming to the Han Family with me?" Bai Shuruo held Bai Shunan's hand, reluctant to let go.
Bai Shunan pinched Bai Shuruo's cheek and smiled: "Logically speaking, I really should go back with you, after all, we are in-laws, but I truly cannot get away from my work here. How about this, I'll finish up with the exhibition first, and when I have some free time, I'll come find you, okay? You aren't in a rush to leave anyway, you'll be staying for quite a few days, right?"
Bai Shuruo understood and nodded.
Bai Shunan added: "Actually, there's no need to be so nervous. Think about it, a family that can raise a son as excellent as Brother Han certainly won't be bad. Just go back with Brother Han with peace of mind, eat what you want, drink what you want, and just be yourself. You are so cute, who wouldn't like you?"
Bai Shuruo smiled happily.
Bai Shunan then looked at Han Yangting and said: "Brother Han, I'll leave my sister to you then."
"Rest assured," Han Yangting said, while coming over to take Bai Shuruo's hand.
The group split into two. Han Yangting led Bai Shuruo into a business van. Bai Shunan and the others also boarded the car arranged by Ling Feng and his group.
After getting into the car, Bai Shunan sat with Ling Feng.
She asked Ling Feng: "Is the hotel far?"
Ling Feng said: "The hotel is near the exhibition, which is very convenient for our work."
"You said before, that is Leizi's family's hotel?" Bai Shunan asked again.
Ling Feng smiled and nodded.
Bai Shunan then asked Ni Xianglei in the back row: "Leizi, since your family is already so rich, why come and partner with me? Isn't it better to work for the family business?"
Ni Xianglei said calmly: "To gain some experience."
Bai Shunan then said: "I always feel like there are many things about you guys that I don't know. You are clearly very rich, yet you pretend to be poor in front of me."
Ling Feng said: "Then come home with me, and you'll know my family background, won't you? And while you're at it, go visit Leizi's family."
Bai Shunan gave Ling Feng a meaningful look, then smiled: "Next time. This time I'm truly too busy; I don't even have time to go to my sister's place."
Ling Feng crossed his arms over his chest and said helplessly: "Fine, you are the impenetrable Bai Shunan."
Bai Shuruo kept staring out the car window.
The business van left the city center and arrived in a scenic suburb, where villas could be seen on both sides of the road.
She thought to herself: Han Yangting is indeed from a wealthy family; people who can afford to live in villas in Beishi certainly wouldn't be bad.
As it turned out, the car drove forward for a while and entered a row of small woods, which gave it a rural feel.
She thought again: Is Han Yangting's family in the countryside?
Then she thought, even if it is the countryside, it doesn't matter; she would follow her husband wherever he goes.
Before long, a super-large Manor appeared before her eyes. The first things to come into view were a lush green lawn, an airfield, and a golf course.
Following that were three castle-like buildings.
One second Bai Shuruo was still wondering whose wealthy family's manor this was, and the next, the car drove to the manor gate. The car had an identification system, and it drove into the manor without any obstruction.
She was stunned, then turned to look at Han Yangting, her face wearing a giant question mark.
Han Yangting looked at her with a smile and said: "Ruoruo, welcome home."
Bai Shuruo: "..."
From getting out of the car to entering the Castle, Bai Shuruo remained in a state of shock.
"Brother Han, is this, is this really the place where you've lived since you were a child?" Bai Shuruo couldn't believe it and asked again.
Han Yangting simply decided to be open about it: "This Manor originally belonged to my great-grandfather, and later it was passed down to my grandfather and my Second Uncle. I grew up here; this is my home."
Bai Shuruo looked at the gardeners and servants busy inside the Manor: "These people, were they also hired by your family?"
Han Yangting laughed: "Ruoruo, I have no need to hire these people to put on a show just because you came. They have worked here for many years."
Bai Shuruo only felt her heart thumping wildly.
Having a manor, having a parking apron—this kind of wealth was beyond her imagination.
She suddenly wanted to go on Quora and post a thread: What to do if you discover your husband is a tycoon after marriage?
But even if she posted it, she would probably be mocked for being a "humblebragger," so forget it.
She followed Han Yangting into the living room of Castle No. 1 with trepidation and saw the grandfather and mother-in-law she had previously seen in mobile videos.
"Ruoruo is here, come in and sit... no need to change your shoes." Ye Caiyue greeted her quite warmly.
Despite the warmth, Ye Caiyue remained dignified, with an air of imposing nobility.
Bai Shuruo was even more nervous.
Especially after seeing Han Weimin sitting on the sofa.
She was already incredibly nervous facing Han Yangting, and now, facing this grandfather who was awe-inspiring without even being angry, she was even more nervous. This grandfather gave off the feeling that even though he was sitting there alone, it was as if he had an army of thousands behind him.
However, the most approachable one was the man in his fifties sitting in the middle; his aura was not as strong, and he looked like a down-and-out artist.
It was only relative, though; if he were outside, this "artist" would still give ordinary people a sense of aloofness.
It was also at this moment that she realized the 2,000-yuan bag and the tea leaves costing 80-something per tael she had given before were simply a joke.
She stepped forward to greet the grandfather and mother-in-law.
"Hello Grandfather, hello Mother, and..."
Han Weimin and Ye Caiyue remained silent, seemingly disdainful of this "artist," but Bai Shuruo had already guessed that this "artist" should be her father-in-law, so she looked at Han Yangting, "Hello Father?"
Han Yangting was amused by her appearance; he chuckled low, then nodded.
Her manner was just like an ancient palace maid meeting the Empress Dowager and the Emperor; all that was missing was a kowtow.
"Ruoruo, come over and sit." Han Yangting took her hand and went over to sit down.
Bai Shuruo also sat straight and upright, as obedient as an elementary school student in class.
Ye Caiyue and Han Dongbei began to make small talk with her.
"Ruoruo, the trip back was quite tiring, wasn't it?" Han Dongbei said.
Bai Shuruo shook her head in confusion: "I'm not tired."
How could she be tired? It only took two hours to arrive by plane, and they went through the VIP process while waiting for the flight.
Han Minwei then said: "I told Han Yangting yesterday to have you two come back on the family's private jet, but he said he was afraid you wouldn't be used to it and insisted on taking a commercial airline."
Bai Shuruo: "..."
She looked at Han Yangting and asked: "Back when I was in the Northern Frontier, the private jet that brought me back was... your family's?"
Han Yangting nodded.
She took a brief glance at the living room; although she didn't recognize the brands of the furniture, she could tell that the living room was very expensive to build, and there was even a fireplace on the wall.
"Young Master, Young Mistress, please have some tea." Servants dressed in uniforms came over to serve tea to Bai Shuruo and Han Yangting.
Bai Shuruo held the exquisite teacup and took a sip, finding the tea very fragrant; she didn't know what kind of tea it was, but it was certainly much more expensive than the dried tangerine peel tea she bought.
In any case, she didn't dare to ask.
After sitting uneasily for quite a while, Ye Caiyue could see Bai Shuruo's reserve, and she couldn't help but smile: "Ruoruo must be tired after such a long flight. Yangting, take Ruoruo upstairs to rest; your rooms have already been prepared."
