My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 766: Ye Siyuan’s Engagement Banquet 1

Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Ye Siyuan’s Engagement Banquet 1

The young man’s forehead was dripping with cold sweat as he continuously bowed and apologized, his humble desire to survive palpable.

Mo Yinhe couldn’t be bothered with him and coldly snorted, "Aren’t you going to scram?"

The young man clutched his tray and scurried away; a large-scale social death scene indeed.

Si Mingjing turned her head back around, placed the glass of milk on the table, and smiled as she began eating breakfast with a knife and fork.

Mo Yinhe teased her, "Darling, your charm is too much. I’ll have to keep a closer eye on you, or someone might whisk you away."

Si Mingjing, busy eating breakfast, said, "It’s clearly your charm that’s great. Just look at how many girls are sneaking glances at you. I’m getting jealous."

Mo Yinhe had long been accustomed to being watched wherever he went and threw her a suggestive look.

"Shouldn’t you keep a closer watch, too?"

Si Mingjing couldn’t hide her amusement and stretched out her leg to kick him gently.

She didn’t speak, focusing on her breakfast.

The hotel’s buffet was quite good, with a bit of local flair that Si Mingjing had never tried before. She found it novel and was completely absorbed in the flavors, even suggesting, "Should we buy some local specialties to take back with us?"

She had seen on her social media feed that many people bought local specialties from other cities to take home for their families to try, but despite her frequent travels, she had never thought about bringing something home for her family.

The last time her mother-in-law and father-in-law went out, they even brought back a scarf for her, which was very pretty.

Even among family members, sometimes small gifts were needed to keep the relationship warm.

Si Mingjing suggested, "We’re free in the morning, why don’t we go out for a walk? Buy some local products for Mom and Dad?"

Mo Yinhe was unimpressed. "Buy what specialties? My mom went to high school in T City, so she’s tired of everything here. If we buy them, she might laugh at us and might even say you’ve been duped."

"Ah? Mom used to live in T City?"

"She lived on the island with my maternal grandparents, which is now the Yinhe Aerospace Base. T City is the closest coastal city to the island, so she went to high school there."

Si Mingjing played with her ring phone and said, "Then I can ask Mom if there’s any food from T City that she misses. I’ll bring some back for her as a gesture of filial piety."

Mo Yinhe sipped his milk, smirked, and teased her, "So very filial."

Si Mingjing rolled her eyes, not bothering to deal with Mo Yinhe.

She called Ye Xinguang herself, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed T City’s delicacies over the phone. Their relationship was good, almost like that of a real mother and daughter, sparing Mo Yinhe from dealing with complex in-law relations, making life blissfully easy.

Ye Xinguang mentioned a few local delicacies she liked over the phone, specifically instructing Si Mingjing, "Buy them from a supermarket; don’t go to tourist trap shops. Those are scams for outsiders. Just find any supermarket, and you’ll be able to get them."

"Alright, Mom."

After breakfast, Si Mingjing dragged Mo Yinhe out to explore the supermarket.

Fearing he’d be recognized, she even made him wear sunglasses.

Mo Yinhe disliked wearing sunglasses and complained as they left the supermarket’s underground parking lot, "Why wear sunglasses? Your man looks even more handsome in them, exuding such a commanding presence—like he’s two-point-eight meters tall—that all the girls in the supermarket will swoon."

Si Mingjing smiled and huffed, "No wonder Xiaobai is so narcissistic."

"You mean ’like father, like son’?" Mo Yinhe cut her off, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her into his embrace as other couples do, whispering in her ear, "Mingjing, you have to admit I’m speaking the truth. Your man has his own charm, even if it’s just a tiny bit less than yours."

Leaning against his shoulder, Si Mingjing couldn’t be bothered to argue with him about it.

Si Mingjing seldom visited supermarkets, but she had to admit that strolling through one was a rather leisurely and relaxing activity. Picking and choosing items off the shelves provided a sense of everyday living.

Mo Yinhe pushed the cart, into which she tossed anything that caught her eye. After a few rounds, the cart was full, filled with non-essential items. But since she liked them and they weren’t expensive, she couldn’t control her buying impulse.

She said, "If we were just an ordinary couple, coming here to shop after work each day, buying groceries, fruits, and snacks, life would be quite fulfilling, don’t you think?"

Mo Yinhe wasn’t particularly fond of supermarket shopping. To him, anything was delightful as long as he was with her. Wrapping one arm around her shoulders, he kissed her soft hair. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

After leaving the supermarket, they found a nearby restaurant with good reviews for a meal before heading to the hospital in the afternoon.

Mrs. Yang excitedly told Mo Yinhe, "Half an hour ago, my husband briefly regained consciousness. The doctors checked him and said his cognition is normal, and his brain should be fine. Sir, Madam, thank you both."

Upon hearing the news, Mo Yinhe felt both relieved and pleased.

Si Mingjing took Dr. Yang’s pulse and nodded, saying, "He should be fine now, but Dr. Yang has a history of heart disease. He should still be careful to avoid overexertion in the future, as a sudden heart attack can be very dangerous."

Si Mingjing took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote a prescription, and handed it to Mrs. Yang, saying, "Once Dr. Yang is discharged, follow this prescription for post-treatment conditioning to alleviate the strain on his heart."

Mrs. Yang didn’t know how to thank Si Mingjing enough. She treated the prescription as though it were an elixir of life, repeatedly expressing her gratitude in person and even trying to offer Si Mingjing money.

There was no way Si Mingjing would ever accept the money.

Mo Yinhe stepped in to refuse it. After they spent a full hour in the ward without Dr. Yang regaining consciousness again, they had to leave T City and return to Yecheng.

Si Mingjing brought T City’s specialties to Ye Xinguang, who happened to have guests at home. Showing off to the guests, Ye Xinguang said, "These were bought especially for me by my daughter-in-law. She’s super filial; these are all things I used to love eating."

Si Mingjing felt a bit embarrassed to hear that.

After sitting for a short while, she then headed to Song Group.

In her office, she called for Lun Bobing and ordered him to send a team to Baitown City to establish the Blue Eye Sunflower breeding base.

Once the production of Blue Eye Sunflowers increased, she planned to develop medication for treating depression to administer to the citizens of Baitown City afflicted with the illness, beginning clinical trials for depression treatment.

In the following days, Si Mingjing was busy with this project.

Finally, the day of Ye Siyuan’s grand engagement party arrived.

On the day of the engagement party, the palace was festively decorated. As the hostess, Si Mingjing, wearing light makeup, had to help entertain the guests, staying busy from morning to night with scarcely any time to rest.

Only when the evening banquet officially started did she manage to steal a brief moment for herself.

Away from the hustle and bustle, she stood alone with a glass of wine in hand at the second-floor railing, admiring the night view.

No one knew that today was not only Ye Siyuan’s engagement day but also the first anniversary of her arrival on Earth.

A year ago today, she had traveled from Prison Star aboard a spaceship to Yinhe Aerospace Base.

The moment she stepped off the spaceship, it had been a night as cold and chilling as this, with the soft, rustling sound of waves lapping the sand echoing in her ears, as if mocking her audacity.
