Chapter 329: Chapter 150 Worn Out Mother-in-law: I Want This Son-in-law_3

Li Yuan smiled. "Oh, right, Bai, I forgot to tell you something. I have to go on a business trip to Shancheng tomorrow to discuss some copyright matters. My flight is at noon. It might take three or four days, so I won’t be able to keep you and your parents company."

Although Bai Weixi felt a bit disappointed, she still nodded obediently.

"Go on and handle your work, Husband. It’s more important. We have plenty of time to be together."

"That’s true, we have all the time in the world," Li Yuan laughed. "As long as you’re not angry, it’s fine. If this collaboration goes well, it’ll be a great boost for my future development."

"Tomorrow, after we get the new car, you should take advantage of the National Day holiday. Go for a drive with your parents to the surrounding areas. Hangcheng, Sucheng, Yang City, and so on—they’re not far... I’ll cover the expenses."

Bai Weixi was deeply moved. "Mmm, Husband, you’re working so hard."

Li Yuan was also a bit tired. He pulled Bai Weixi into his arms and said with a smile, "Let’s get some sleep. We’ll go buy the car tomorrow morning after breakfast."

The night passed peacefully.

Some slept soundly, while others tossed and turned, unable to find rest.

That night, Yang Jinyu was restless. Sleep eluded her, and she was up to wash as soon as dawn began to break.

The next day, very early in the morning, Li Yuan, taking advantage of his morning ardor, played another round of "poker" with Bai Weixi before they enjoyed a sumptuous breakfast.

Just as a haggard-looking Yang Jinyu got up to wash, she once again heard faint sounds from the bedroom, making her already worn-out expression even more helpless.

This is too much. Xixi and Yuan have no self-control. I need to find a chance to remind Xixi about this.

About an hour later, the noise finally stopped. Li Yuan and Bai Weixi came out of the room one after another to wash up.

"Mom, why do you look so down today? Didn’t you rest well last night?" Bai Weixi asked with concern, completely unaware that her mother had been awake all night.

Yang Jinyu glanced silently at her vibrant, beautiful daughter. If it weren’t for you and Li Yuan being so wild, I wouldn’t have lost a night’s sleep. Playing ’poker’ is one thing, but did you have to be so loud? Thank goodness your father was drunk. If he’d heard, he would have exploded on the spot.

"Mm, I just had some trouble sleeping in an unfamiliar bed. Don’t worry about me. I’ve already bought you two breakfast, so just have some later."

Bai Weixi asked with a grin, "Mom, has Dad not woken up yet?"

Yang Jinyu glanced at the bedroom, feeling utterly speechless. Her husband usually handled his liquor well. How could he get completely drunk the first time he drank with his future son-in-law and still not be sober?

Is the kick from Maotai really that strong?

"Don’t bother him; let him sleep. He’s always like this when he drinks too much. He could sleep until noon."

Slightly worried, Bai Weixi peeked into the room. Seeing Bai Tianqi breathing evenly, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After a simple breakfast, Bai Weixi announced cheerfully, "Mom, Li Yuan and I are going out for a bit. You can stay home with Dad."

She and Li Yuan had decided last night to surprise her parents, so they were keeping the real reason for their trip a secret for now.

Yang Jinyu didn’t suspect a thing. Besides, she was reluctant to leave Bai Tianqi at home alone.

"Alright then, I’ll stay here with your dad."

Dressed in a long white dress and carrying the new LV bag Li Yuan had given her the day before, Bai Weixi jiggled the BMW car keys in her hand.

"Mom, we’re heading out now!"

Li Yuan drove Bai Weixi straight to the Mercedes dealership. He spent over 500,000 to purchase a brand-new Mercedes E-Series, which was also registered under Bai Weixi’s name.

Looking at the new Mercedes and the vehicle registration certificate, Bai Weixi made a firm decision in that moment: she would stay with Li Yuan for the rest of her life, through thick and thin.

"Hee hee, Husband, you’re the best. If my parents knew about this, they’d agree on the spot to let me marry you."

Li Yuan smiled noncommittally.

If Bai Weixi were his only girlfriend, there would be no problem. Unfortunately, he had more than one, and one of them was Bai Weixi’s best friend. He could only imagine what her parents would think of him if they ever learned the truth.

I’ve done everything I possibly could, so my conscience is clear. The rest is up to fate.

His obsession with Bai Weixi had faded. Once a person lets go of an obsession, they can suddenly see things much more clearly.

Driving one after the other, they returned to the Emerald Mansion complex.

Bai Weixi, excitedly holding the new car keys and registration, pulled Li Yuan by the hand as they headed home.

Inside, Bai Tianqi was awake and receiving a lecture from Yang Jinyu.

"Old Bai, I told you not to drink so much last night, but you insisted. You’ve completely embarrassed me and our daughter. Is Maotai really that good?"

Bai Tianqi looked sheepish. He knew he was in the wrong and felt a bit helpless. He had been in high spirits the day before, thrilled that his daughter had found such an excellent boyfriend. That, combined with the allure of Maotai, had led him to overdo it.

"Jinyu, I know I was wrong. I won’t drink that much next time," Bai Tianqi apologized. Then, he muttered gloomily, "I just didn’t expect Yuan to be such a heavy drinker. He’s so young, yet he can hold his liquor better than me and even kept urging me to drink more."

Yang Jinyu scoffed. "Yuan is a genius. Look at all his muscles, and then look at your paunch. It would be a miracle if you could outdrink him."

Bai Tianqi shot his wife a speechless glare, desperately wanting to retort that drinking capacity has nothing to do with physical build.
