Although Xia Shi said not to let Bi Xia worry about the restaurant anymore, how could Bi Xia really not be concerned? Thinking about the future competition between Xia Family and Xu Family Banquet, Bi Xia directly dialed Ye Xiao’s father.
"Is that Little Nine?" A slightly breathless yet strong voice came from the other end of the phone.
Bi Xia smiled slightly, "It’s me. Uncle Ye, you’re getting old, take it easy with those age-inappropriate activities."
Uncle Ye paused for a moment, then laughed and cursed, "You little rascal, you’re not even as old as Xiao, but you think a lot! Your Uncle Ye is working out! Don’t you know the importance of good exercise and daily improvement?"
"I’ve only heard of ’Good Good Study, Day Day Up,’" Bi Xia retorted, "Alright, no need to explain. Is Ye Xiao home? At least be mindful of your influence and don’t set a bad example for the kid."
"Get out of here!" Uncle Ye’s eyes widened, displaying the fierce authority of a former gang leader, giving the impression of someone who rules with an iron fist. He snorted, "Spill it, calling early in the morning, it’s definitely not just to find that kid Xiao. What do you want from me?"
"Oh wow," Bi Xia sat casually in the car, tilting his head to look out the window, "Look at you, so confident. Who says I’m looking for you, maybe I’m looking for our lovely Auntie?"
"Bi Xia, you little brat!" Uncle Ye’s originally good mood instantly turned into a roar of anger. Fortunately, Bi Xia knew Ye Xiao’s father was hot-tempered and straightforward, a typical old military man. He had already moved the phone away from his ear, letting Uncle Ye shout away on the other end.
"What are you yelling for! Looking for a beating this early in the morning?" A sharp voice interrupted, and Uncle Ye’s tone immediately softened, like a big bad wolf turned into a little lamb, soothing the person who came to his side.
Uncle Ye embraced his wife and explained, "Honey, don’t be mad. It’s that rascal Bi Xiaojiu, always trying to get close to you. I was just giving him a lesson."
Aunt Ye glanced at Uncle Ye and snorted, "Do you really think you can beat Little Jiu’er? Have you forgotten how he beat you up before?" The source of this content ɪs NoveIꜰire.net
She then took the phone from Uncle Ye’s hand, her previously fierce tone suddenly turning gentle, making Uncle Ye grit his teeth. Aunt Ye spoke softly, "Little Jiu’er, do you miss your Auntie?"
Bi Xia chuckled, "Yes, Auntie, I miss you a lot, just not Uncle Ye, he’s too hot-headed."
"Exactly," Aunt Ye rolled her eyes at Uncle Ye, "Let’s not care about him."
Uncle Ye was gnashing his teeth, looking at Ye Xiao who walked out of his room, throwing a look.
Uncle Ye: ...Son, quickly take your big boss away!
Ye Xiao: ...Dad, sorry, I’m powerless...
Uncle Ye: Unfilial son!
Ye Xiao: In this matter, I choose to be an unfilial son.
Bi Xia chuckled as he finished chatting with Aunt Ye and finally said, "By the way, Auntie, my mom just opened a new restaurant. Could you and Uncle Ye help find some good fighters to keep an eye on the place? Just in case someone with bad intentions tries to cause trouble."
Aunt Ye immediately agreed, "No problem at all. Look at you, X Security Company is yours now, why talk about inconvenience."
"Don’t say that, I just got lucky," Bi Xia laughed, "But really, thanks for believing in me, Uncle and Auntie."
After hanging up, Aunt Ye looked at the phone with satisfaction and turned to yell at her husband and son who were having a staring contest, "Hurry up and go freshen up! Breakfast will be ready in ten minutes!"
With her order, the two scrambled into action. Aunt Ye sighed contentedly, thinking, ’Ashi has really raised a good kid. Looking at my own, well... still, following a smart kid is also a wise choice.’
With that thought, Aunt Ye happily began preparing breakfast.
"Why do I feel like my status at home has dropped again?" Uncle Ye peeked his head out, complaining to his son.
Ye Xiao rolled his eyes, "Ever since you lost to the big boss and let him win mom’s trust, not only did your status drop, mine did too."
"By the way, Old Ye," Ye Xiao turned to his dad, "Has Du Han contacted you yet?"
Uncle Ye shook his head, "Not yet. In a couple of days, the security company’s ad will be out, he should come by then."
"Alright," Ye Xiao snapped his fingers, "Let me know when he does, I’ll go with the big boss. I’m curious to see what kind of person has made the big boss wait!"
Uncle Ye: ...Tsk, just admit it, you’re jealous.
