Chapter 940: I Will Definitely Bring Your Daughter-in-Law Back
He had been waiting until his limit was crossed. The two days that he had promised was almost up. He was just preparing himself to go out and find Yan Qingsi himself, no matter how his family tried to stop him. He never expected that she would have gone to Rong City.
“Grandma Xia is being hospitalized now. Her condition doesn’t look too good. It’s probably because of this.”
“I was just about to leave for the capital,” Yue Tingfeng replied immediately, “I’ll make a move now since she’s in Rong City.”
“Alright. Let’s talk more when we get there,” You Yi said.
After he hung up, Yue Tingfeng immediately grabbed his wallet, phone, and ID. He was ready to leave, not even bringing a single suitcase.
He went to Mrs. Yue’s room first. “Mom, Qingsi is in Rong City,” he said, “I need to go find her.”
Mrs. Yue was taken aback. “Now? Then what about your uncle?”
“You can tell him once I’m on the plane. He keeps preventing me from going. That’s my girlfriend. He may not be worried, but I can’t be at ease.”
Mrs. Yue nodded her head. “Well...then don’t worry. I haven’t been sleeping peacefully these few days. See, Qingsi had been such a great catch, and you managed to court her successfully. So much time and energy had been spent on that. If Qingsi’s true identity is about to... Well, you’re definitely no match for her. It makes me depressed when I think about it.”
Yue Tingfeng was speechless.
“Alright, Mom. Don’t talk about it anymore. Don’t worry. Your son is going off. I won’t leave that city until I bring your future daughter-in-law back.”
Mrs. Yue patted Yue Tingfeng’s shoulder. “Good job, my son. I’m so proud of you. Go ahead without worries. You have me over here. I’ll hold the fort down for you.”
“I’m off then.”
Mrs. Yue pumped a fist into the sky, encouraging her son. “Go on. I’ll support you!”

While Xia Anlan was having a meeting, Yan Qingsi rested in the breakroom. It was very boring. There was nothing she could watch on the television, but she did manage to catch the trailer for Beauty’s Rival in Palace. It was going to air very soon—next Wednesday, in fact. She suddenly felt a little nervous. This was her very first drama. The trailer pieced together by the TV station was very elaborate and beautiful. Yan Qingsi had quite a few appearances in it too. Although she was not the main female lead, she had pretty good screen time.
After she finished watching the trailer, the nervousness wore off and Yan Qingsi started to feel drowsy.
She woke up from the nap after half an hour. Xia Anlan was not done with the meeting yet. She stretched her limbs, then saw that there were some fruits and desserts on the table. Someone had probably placed it there while she was asleep.
Yan Qingsi released a sigh. She did not know how long this meeting would go on for. It was kind of boring.
She drank a gulp of water and paced around the room. There was nothing of interest here. She opened the door, wanting to go out and take a stroll. In the end, she saw that six foot three man standing at the entrance the moment the door swung open.
He was wearing a black suit, standing as straight as a pole. Even though he was not in military uniform, you could still tell that he was part of the armed forces.
“You saved me from drowning a few days ago,” Yan Qingsi said to him, “I didn’t get to thank you, so thank you.”
“It was my duty,” Yuchi replied.
“You’re called Yuchi?”
“That’s right.”
“Nice name.”
Yuchi did not answer that. He stood ramrod straight, his eyes pinned onto the space before him.
Yan Qingsi released a sigh. This person was not the best conversation partner in the world. However...with his body, even though he was just standing guard here, he looked as though he could be standing on the world’s top runways. It was a shame that he was not a model.
Little Lin rushed over and saw that Yan Qingsi was standing at the entrance. She thrust a phone towards her. “Miss, this is the phone that the master provided for you. I only managed to give it to you now. My apologies.”
Yan Qingsi snatched the phone away, her eyes brightening. “Don’t worry, don’t worry... There’s a SIM card inside, right? Can I make a call?”
