Chapter 494: The Bashful Ouyang Jie
It took so much effort to try to extract information from the other party's mouth, this move is too troublesome!
Rather than that, it's better to let them come to me. At that time, I'll explain things to them with emotion and reason, and make clear the serious relationship. I believe every Go enthusiast wouldn't want to see Hua Country's Go tainted by foreigners.
"He wants me to go collect it?"
Bai Qiu widened his eyes, full of disbelief, "Could it be some kind of trick? Don't tell me they'll ask for money when I'm there!"
"This... it shouldn't be, look, the address he gave is the Hua Country Go Association, which is an official organization. It'd be too low-class for them to play those kind of dirty tricks."
Song Yun said calmly, "Besides, it's just an entrance animation. Nowadays, what game can you not buy with money? If it comes to it, I'll buy it for you!"
"You might not know this, but the entrance animation isn't for sale. It's given for free only to people with professional qualifications by the platform."
Bai Qiu scratched his head, "Should we, father and son, make a trip?"
"Grandpa, I'm really tired..."
Song Yun said with a pitiful look, "How about I find someone to drive you there?"
"Nonsense!"
Bai Qiu scolded, "Your mom has returned to the Bai Family and has already tightened the reins there. And she strictly warned everyone not to give me too much help in regard to Go! If I say I'm going to the Go association, she'd really lock me in the study!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's not me saying this, but it's only natural to be afraid of your wife, and being afraid of your daughter..."
"Is also only natural! What about it! Bai Qiu is my own flesh and blood. What's the big deal if I give in a little!"
Bai Qiu said discontentedly, "Besides, you're acting as if Bai Qiu isn't your real mother! I'll let you off for today, but you must accompany me for a visit tomorrow morning. This has to be kept secret! Otherwise... otherwise I'll ask Old Wei to spank you!"
"Alright, alright! You really scare me. I'll go catch up on some sleep then."
Song Yun yawned, waved his hand, and walked away.
"This kid! Damn, he really does have some of my charm from my younger days, truly a scion of the Bai Family."
Bai Qiu watched Song Yun's departing figure and chuckled, "Just don't know which path you, kid, will take in the future. After all, across the ages, it's rare to see someone at your age start from scratch and build such an enterprise!"
Back in his room, Song Yun walked straight to the bed and then flopped down on it.
"Husband, you've worked hard~"
Ye Qingqing touched Song Yun's head, then touched her own belly, and suddenly, thinking of something, laughed out loud with a "pu-chi".
She gently tapped her belly and whispered, "You have to come out quickly and then grow tall, to help your father shoulder some of the burden, okay?"
Song Yun slept very comfortably. When he opened his eyes again, it was already nearing evening. Looking beside him, Ye Qingqing was sitting on the bed, earnestly embroidering something.
"What are you doing?"
Song Yun hugged Ye Qingqing from behind and asked with a laugh.
"I'm embroidering the Five Poisons Coat for your child. Mom said I could just buy it online, but I thought about it, and this will be my first gift to the baby. I feel more at ease doing it myself."
Ye Qingqing slapped away Song Yun's mischievous hand and cooed, "Stop messing around, or I'll prick your hand with the needle!"
"Hehe."
Men who've just woken up, everyone understands. Seeing that Ye Qingqing was pregnant, Song Yun obediently got up and picked up the half-finished Five Poisons Coat to take a look.
Only...
Why does it look a bit strange??
"Wife, what is this?"
Song Yun pointed at a creature that looked like a pig and asked.
"That's a toad! Look at its four legs, aren't they lifelike!"
"They are... And this one?"
"Tsk! Do you have a problem with your eyes? How can't you tell—it's obviously a centipede!"
Song Yun looked at the centipede, which resembled an earthworm in its twists and turns, and couldn't help feeling a wave of emotion.
Oh, my unborn child, if you wear this and get laughed at when you go out, you can't blame your father, ah! This was handmade by your mother. Although it isn't very lifelike, the thought is what counts!
"Ring ring ring~"
Just then, Song Yun's mobile phone rang, and he looked at the caller ID before answering the call.
"What's up?"
"Bro Yun! I've made dinner plans with Xiao Wan tonight. Are you guys coming along?"
Ouyang Jie shouted excitedly on the other end of the phone.
"You two are going on a date, and we're supposed to be third wheels?"
Song Yun replied irritably, "Is there anything else? If not, I'm hanging up!"
"No no no!"
Ouyang Jie's voice dropped by three tones, and he said hesitantly, "I'm a little scared, you know. I was just thinking of getting everyone together for a meal, so, Bro Yun, could you show some mercy and help a brother out? I swear! Just this once, I will never disturb you and your wife's... uh, family of three again!"
"Get lost!"
Song Yun cursed, "Where are we eating tonight?"
"How about Fengze Garden?"
With a silly laugh, Ouyang Jie said, "That's a several-hundred-year-old establishment that's never been short of patrons. The chefs there make some killer Shandong cuisine!"
"Alright, you guys go ahead. I'll tidy up and head over."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Qingqing blinked curiously at Song Yun.
"It was that kid Ouyang Jie who called. He said he's having dinner with Xiao Wan tonight. He's a bit nervous, so he wanted to ask us along to make it less awkward."
Song Yun said helplessly, "Why do I feel like a matchmaker? I have to personally get involved in everything."
"It's 'the capable are busy'."
With a chuckle, Ye Qingqing said, "Si Yi is going to be with Mom tonight for a spa, so I'll go with you."
"Great, let's head over now."
Song Yun found the butler, called for a car from the Bai Family's garage, and the two set off for Fengze Garden following the navigation.
Evidently, Ouyang Jie had terrible timing. It was now around five or six o'clock—rush hour. What should have been a half-hour journey took them an hour and a half!
They arrived at Fengze Garden at almost seven in the evening.
After parking the car, the two walked into the reserved private room.
Upon entering, they saw Ouyang Jie and Xiao Wan engaging in an awkward chat.
Normally, these two chatted up a storm on social media, but in person, they were like strangers meeting for the first time!
Song Yun wished he could give each of them a phone and let them carry on their conversation online!

Xiao Wan jumped up, hugged Ye Qingqing's arm, and said, "We haven't ordered yet. Quick, take a look and see what you want to eat."
"I'm okay with anything, I'm not picky."
Smiling, Ye Qingqing said, "Speaking of which, it's kind of strange. Other pregnant women get nauseous at the sight of this or that, but I don't avoid anything. I want to bite into anything I see."
"That's because you have a good constitution, sister-in-law. My mom, when she was pregnant with me, craved box lunches from the train. My dad bought one from right outside his office, but my mom threw it out, saying it wasn't the right taste. In the end, my dad had to go to the train station and plead with the staff to buy a box lunch!"
