Love Affairs in Melbourne-Chapter 318 - 313 Love’s Original Appearance (2)
When Yan Yan arrived at the "new home," she mustered up her energy and instructed the assistant, who had already arrived early, to check inside the house for anything missing. If there was anything needed, the assistant was to hurry to a nearby supermarket to stock up.
The concept of "move-in ready" truly varies from person to person.
Everyone is accustomed to different things.
As for the cleanliness of the house, she didn’t know if it really met her living standards.
Yan Yan gave as detailed instructions as possible to her assistant about everything she could think of.
Once Lei Pili had moved the luggage in, he immediately turned around to find Yan Yan.
He saw Yan Yan was still instructing the assistant by the car the assistant had driven over.
Lei Pili did not disturb her but went straight over to settle the fare with the driver of the truck he had found earlier and told the driver to leave.
"Brother Pili, why did you let the driver go? I still need to go back," Yan Yan had not noticed Lei Pili coming out and by the time she did, the vehicle had already driven away.
Yan Yan resignedly prepared to call another car with her smartphone.
Lei Pili walked over to Yan Yan and without a word, the first thing he did was open the car door for her, driven by the assistant.
"You just said you haven’t had proper rest for several days. Have your assistant take you straight back to sleep.
I’m here; you don’t need to worry.
I can handle anything that’s missing or needs tidying up.
My parents run a housekeeping company. With them around, they certainly won’t let your mom and dad go without a place to sleep.
If I need a car, I can just book an Uber.
You’re so tired now if you ride in someone else’s car back and end up sleeping as soundly as before, your mom and dad definitely won’t be at ease.
Have your assistant take you straight back so you can rest properly." After Lei Pili finished speaking, he closed the car door for Yan Yan.
Yan Yan was stunned for a moment and then tried to open the car door again, "If I go, I should at least say goodbye to my mom and dad first."
"I’ll go and tell them for you, saying you still have work to do.
Otherwise, when they see you come in, my mom is sure to hold you up talking for a long time.
That way, it’ll be at least an hour before you can go back to rest.
My mom tends to make a big deal out of nothing; don’t take it to heart." Lei Pili exchanged a look with Yan Yan’s assistant, telling her to drive carefully.
Then he turned and left.
Just like he was in Italy, Lei Pili walked away without hesitation, his movements cool and natural, all in one go.
Yan Yan’s relationship with Qi Yi was never hidden from Lei Pili, and she used to show off her affection in front of him.
Brother Pili should be quite clear about her stance.
Was Lei Pili really here especially for her?
Or was Aunt Lei overthinking it?
Previously in Italy, without Lei Pili saying anything, she presumptuously and arrogantly went and rejected him.
Now she certainly couldn’t assume and do it all over again.
Yan Yan felt slightly overwhelmed and hadn’t even thanked Lei Pili when her assistant had already driven her away from her new home.
Now that her mom and dad said they wanted to settle in New York, besides coming to accompany her, did they have other motives?
After Y·Y’s shoes are launched, Yan Yan felt it necessary to communicate with her mom and dad as soon as possible.
This action did not seem like something her parents would do; after all, she had been a child brought up without much supervision.
Her parents had never meant to interfere in her life.
...
The assistant took Yan Yan back to the studio.
Because Yan Yan often worked late on designs, when Yan Ling renovated the new studio, he prepared a suite in her office.
It was not a large space, but it had everything required.
A bedroom, a bathroom, and a small kitchen.
The same amenities were available in Yan Ling’s office as well.
However, Yan Yan had never stayed there on her previous visits to New York.
She did not visit New York often, and her main goal was always to see Qi Yi.
She tried not to work overtime on designs.
And even if she had to work on a special edition design for Y·Y in New York, Qi Yi would not let her rest in the studio.
Whenever Yan Yan had time to rest after work, no matter how late, Qi Yi would come to take her back with him.
Even if it was just for an hour or two, Qi Yi was in charge of picking her up and dropping her off; if Yan Yan was too tired, he would carry her up.
If Yan Yan did not wake up in time, he would carry her back to the car and let her sleep a bit longer.
For a couple who spent little time together, every moment was precious.
Qi Yi could not disturb Yan Yan when she was designing.
But when she had time to rest or eat, Qi Yi would definitely take every opportunity to be with her.
This time, because Y·Y was launching shoes and because Qi Yi was not in New York, the resting area her cousin had prepared finally came in handy.
Yan Ling had given his house in New York to his ex-sister-in-law.
In the last two years, Yan Ling had found himself needing to come to New York quite frequently.
Even Yan Ling, who did not feel the need to buy a house in New York, ended up having her parents buy one there.
In Yan Yan’s view, this was a clear case of priorities being reversed.
When Yan Yan returned to the studio, she happened to see Yan Ling who had just come back from the shoe upper factory.
"How’s everything at the factory? Are the shoe models all set?
Is everything fitting perfectly once the shoe uppers are in place?
I’ve only checked the samples just now; there aren’t many defects with the other shoes, right?
Will there be enough stock for each store to have an adequate supply the day after tomorrow?
The shoes for the Singapore store need to be packed first.
It’s just one store, the number of shoes needed isn’t much, so they can be packaged and then shipped.
Who did you arrange to go to Singapore? Is the plane ticket booked?" Yan Yan asked Yan Ling several questions at once.
She had been in charge of the specifics and hadn’t checked in yet.
"I thought you’d start cursing me out as soon as you saw me.
To see Y·Y’s Creative Director, so unconcerned with worldly affairs, attentive to the details of packaging and shipping, is quite impressive.
Everything is arranged; Ye Mo will be keeping an eye on the follow-up work," Yan Ling replied, continuing in his exceptionally gentle tone.
Originally, it was Yan Ling who was supposed to go to the airport to pick up Yan Yan and his family.
It was because Yan Yan suddenly decided to go to the airport to check things herself that she freed up some time for Yan Ling.
Otherwise, Yan Ling, who had been supervising the production of the limited edition shoe uppers personally since Ye Mo’s return to the country, wouldn’t have been able to come back from the factory so quickly.
