The Crazy Son-In-Law

“Who?” Xiao Shun asked curiously.

“Yao Xiaoyu is back.”

“Didn’t she stay in the capital after graduation? Why is she back now? It’s just after the New Year.” Xiao Shun asked, puzzled.

Yao Xiaoyu was Yao De’s daughter and Yao Cen’s cousin. She was two years younger than Yao Cen, and of all the Yao family members, Xiaoyu and Yao Cen were the closest.

“Who knows? That girl is always up to something crazy. She just does whatever she thinks of,” Yao Cen sighed.

“Is it appropriate for me to pick up Yao Xiaoyu when her own family isn’t going?”

“That girl specifically asked me to pick her up. She said she wanted to visit the company. I have something to do this afternoon, so I’ll send her a text message later, telling her that you’ll pick her up. It’s also a good chance for you to practice your driving. You just learned, and you need to get on the road more, otherwise, you’ll become rusty.”

Under Song Linger’s “careful guidance,” Xiao Shun finally got his driver’s license. He wasn’t very skilled yet, but Yao Cen just gave him her old Audi A4. In Yao Cen’s words, it wouldn’t be a heartache if the old car got into an accident.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Alright, I’ll pick her up,” Xiao Shun agreed.

At Stillwater International Airport, the landing gear of a Boeing 747 slowly descended, landing smoothly on the runway.

The cabin door opened, and passengers slowly walked down the escalator. The last passenger was a beautiful young woman with an innocent face, showing no signs of fatigue but rather looking excited.

Yao Xiaoyu stood at the cabin door, took a deep breath, and thought, “This is the smell of Stillwater. The air in my hometown is so much better. The capital’s winter is full of smog, and when there’s no smog, the wind is strong and dry. But it’s the capital after all, the place where countless people pursue their dreams. Even children from wealthy families like me hope to prove themselves there.”

As she left the airport terminal, she saw Xiao Shun waiting for her. Her family had said he had changed, but to Yao Xiaoyu, he seemed no different. He was still the same loser. She couldn’t understand what kind of magic potion he had given to Yao Cen, making such a smart and beautiful woman so determined to follow him. He even controlled shares in the company, which was crazy.

Her father had explained everything to her over the phone. Yao Cen was even kicked out of the Yao family because of this loser.

Yao Cen had finally bought Starline, and it was just starting to show some promise. They couldn’t let this guy take full control of the company. At least the formula for Starline Health must be in the hands of the Yao family. In case this guy had any ulterior motives, they’d have a countermeasure.

This was also for Cen’s sake. Yao Xiaoyu hoped that Cen wouldn’t blame her.

As Yao Xiaoyu walked towards Xiao Shun, she recalled the words her father had told her on the phone.

Xiao Shun, of course, didn’t know what Yao De had said to Yao Xiaoyu on the phone.

His impression of Yao Xiaoyu wasn’t too bad. Although he knew she looked down on him, just like the rest of the Yao family, she had always been studying in the capital, and after graduation, she stayed there to work. They only saw each other a few times a year.

Whenever they did meet, even though Yao Xiaoyu was always indifferent towards him, she rarely spoke harshly to him, unlike the rest of the Yao family.

“How was your trip?” Xiao Shun asked as he took her luggage.

Yao Xiaoyu perfunctorily replied with a hum and walked straight outside. Seeing Xiao Shun’s car, she said lightly, “It seems like my brother-in-law is doing well lately, even driving a car.”

Xiao Shun put her luggage in the trunk and smiled, “I just learned.”

Yao Xiaoyu’s mouth curled into a mocking smile, shook her head, and got into the car.

Following Song Linger’s principle of trying not to hit anyone, Xiao Shun’s driving was very smooth. Yes, he absolutely refused to admit it was slow, just smooth.

Yao Xiaoyu rolled her eyes. A loser was still a loser, even when he was driving a car. What else could he do?

“Do you want me to drive?”

“No need, you’ve been traveling all day, and you’re tired. Close your eyes and rest for a while. We’ll be there soon.”

Xiao Shun’s face was expressionless, his eyes watching the road ahead.

Yao Xiaoyu sighed and closed her eyes, “Fine, just don’t crash the car.”

Not long after she closed her eyes, her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and immediately perked up.

“Xiaoyu, I heard you’re back from the capital. We have specially arranged a gathering for you at K9 Bar to welcome you back. Come over right now,” a crisp voice said on the other end.

Yao Xiaoyu turned her head to look outside. They happened to be very close to K9 Bar at the moment. Delighted, she replied, “Alright, I’ll be there right away. Wait for me!”

After hanging up, she said to Xiao Shun, “Forget about the factory. Take me to K9 Bar.”

“Your sister assigned me the task of taking you home.”

Xiao Shun stared solemnly ahead, driving carefully.

“Then you can wait for me at the bar while I hang out with my girlfriends. You can take me home afterward. With your current speed, we won’t even make it back in time for dinner. Let’s wait until after the rush hour.” Yao Xiaoyu commanded.

“No.” Xiao Shun refused curtly.

Yao Xiaoyu looked at him in surprise. “It seems my father was right. Now that you have some ability, you don’t take us seriously anymore, do you?”

Xiao Shun kept his eyes on the road, ignoring her.

“Are you going to stop the car? If you don’t, I’ll jump out myself,” Yao Xiaoyu threatened.

Xiao Shun sighed helplessly. This girl was indeed as Yao Cen had described her, always getting her way.

“Fine, but you have to tell your sister first.”

“That’s more like it.” Yao Xiaoyu smiled contentedly. She took out her phone and sent a text message to Yao Cen. She inadvertently noticed a Chanel handbag in the backseat, and her eyes lit up.

“That bag in the back of your car is a gift from Yao Cen, right?”

“Uh…” The bag was actually one he had bought from Liu Manxiang last time. Yao Cen didn’t like to use something that Liu Manxiang had used, so it had been left in the car.

“I knew my sister would take good care of me!”

Xiao Shun smiled faintly. Well, it didn’t matter. It would be better to put it to use than let it sit there. He didn’t say anything more.

By the time they arrived at K9 Bar, Yao Xiaoyu had gone to the backseat and changed into the new bag. She happily brought Xiao Shun into the bar with her.

The bar was bustling with business at this time. The noisy music, scantily clad women, and the unique smell of the bar constantly stimulated people’s hormones.

Xiao Shun rarely frequented such places, but he was not completely unfamiliar with them.

The two walked in, one after the other, with Yao Xiaoyu in front, scanning the room for her girlfriends.

Soon, a voice called out, “Xiaoyu, over here!”

Following the sound, they saw a young woman in a black off-shoulder miniskirt with heavy makeup, standing next to a booth and waving at them. Yao Xiaoyu grinned and jogged over for an enthusiastic hug.
