Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Xu Yang asked Xiao Dongsheng to arrange for Fengcai Guild’s streamers to promote “War Leopard”.

Soon, everyone knew that Wu Jing had directed a new film, a military action movie.

Initially, people were not interested in this genre.

After all, the military action movies of recent years had basically been trash.

They didn’t even want to watch the trailers.

However, they couldn’t escape the overwhelming promotion and ended up watching the trailers, some behind-the-scenes footage, and stories about the production.

Furthermore, the test screening received positive feedback, and film critics, media reporters, and audiences gave “War Leopard” high praise.

This spurred a lot of viewers to start looking forward to “War Leopard”.

“A movie Wu Jing worked hard on, we have to show some support.”

“I’ll go support it if I have the time, hoping Wu Jing can produce a good domestic military action film.”

“The trailer is intense. This is a man’s movie. Definitely have to support it.”

…

Before you knew it,

there was just one week left until the New Year.

That day, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin dined together with Zhao Hai at Zhao Hai’s house.

Right after dinner, Xu Yang received a call from his mother, Jiang Qiuping.

“Son, New Year’s is coming up, when are you and Yuxin coming back?” Jiang Qiuping asked.

“Mom, we should return on the twenty-ninth,” Xu Yang said.

When to return home for the New Year had been discussed between him and Zhao Yuxin, settling on the twenty-ninth.

“Can’t you come back earlier?” asked Jiang Qiuping.

“Mom, I’m a bit busy during this period, and Yuxin is working at the bank, she gets her holiday around that time,” Xu Yang explained.

In fact, he wasn’t that busy and could return whenever he wanted.

It was mainly Zhao Yuxin’s job; the end of the year was a busy time.

Returning on the twenty-ninth was considered quite accommodating.

Others still had to work on the twenty-ninth and only got their holiday on New Year’s Eve.

Zhao Yuxin secured a one billion custodial fund from the Southwest Commerce Chamber’s special investment fund, and the bank president gave Zhao Yuxin a day off in advance.

Actually, if Zhao Yuxin had asked for a few days off earlier, it would not have been a problem; the bank president would surely have agreed.

The bank president knew that Zhao Yuxin’s husband was the owner of Fengcai Guild and Jiandi Lao.

Moreover, quite a bit of money had been deposited in the bank.

But Zhao Yuxin was serious about her job and did not want to be treated too specially; she feared being alienated by her colleagues, which was not what she wanted, so she just asked for one day off.

Xu Yang had talked with Zhao Yuxin, suggesting she resign and work in finance at Yangxin Investment.

Zhao Yuxin said no, choosing to remain at the bank.

She said she liked working at the bank and enjoyed the work environment and camaraderie with her colleagues.

Xu Yang had no choice but to let Zhao Yuxin do what made her happy.

“Well, come back on the twenty-ninth then. Your father and I have discussed inviting Yuxin’s father to our home for the New Year. Otherwise, once you and Yuxin come back here, her father will be alone in Jiang City for the New Year, which seems too lonely. Ask him if he would like to, okay?” Jiang Qiuping said.

“Okay.” Hearing his mother’s words, Xu Yang realized he had been negligent.

Indeed, when he and Yuxin returned to their hometown for the New Year, Zhao Hai would be alone in Jiang City.

After ending the call, Xu Yang conveyed his parents’ intentions to Zhao Hai and then said, “Dad, come with us to my home for the New Year.”

Zhao Yuxin’s eyes lit up, “Dad, let’s go together.”

As her father’s beloved daughter, Zhao Yuxin indeed had thought about this issue.

“`

Originally, I was planning to talk to Xu Yang about it in a few days.

However, Xu Yang’s parents had already extended an invitation.

This made things even better.

Zhao Hai was indeed tempted, after all, if Zhao Yuxin followed Xu Yang, he would be alone.

The New Year hadn’t even arrived yet, and thinking about the past, he had his daughter with him. This year, he would have to spend it alone, which truly left him feeling a bit empty inside.

Still, he had some concerns and asked, “Is this really convenient? Won’t I be causing trouble for your parents?”

Xu Yang laughed, “There is nothing inconvenient about it, and as for trouble, that’s even less of an issue. If you can come, my parents will only be happy. My parents are very down-to-earth people. Since they’ve invited you, it’s certain they hope you can join us. Yuxin and I will be even happier. With both our families together, it will be much more lively.”

Zhao Yuxin also urged, “Dad, let’s go together. Otherwise, I won’t be at ease with you alone at home.”

Zhao Hai hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “All right then.”

Zhao Yuxin said joyfully, “That’s great, now I can rest assured.”

…

Meanwhile, at the Yang household.

Four people were silently eating their meal, creating a somewhat oppressive atmosphere.

Due to the dismal business at the hotpot restaurant, Yang Tiancheng had been in a bad mood since he got home.

Liu Yujuan’s cooking was quite good, and he usually enjoyed it with relish.

But today’s meal felt tasteless as wax.

His expression was as if someone owed him billions.

“Dad, is the boss thinking of scrapping the hotpot restaurant project?” Yang Jingsheng was the first to break the silence.

“He probably won’t scrap it,” said Yang Tiancheng, shaking his head.

“So, the boss is going to continue supporting it?” Yang Jingsheng was puzzled.

If they weren’t scrapping it, why did Dad still look so upset?

“The reason why Meiwei Hotpot is doing so poorly is that the store is close to Haidilao, which has severely affected our business. The boss will likely choose a new location, farther away from Haidilao. Business should still be good there,” explained Yang Tiancheng.

“That’s good,” Yang Jingsheng breathed a sigh of relief, but was even more puzzled, “Dad, then why do you still seem to be in a bad mood? Isn’t this good news?”

Yang Tiancheng said with bitterness, “With the location being reselected, the boss probably won’t let me be in charge.”

If it were good news, his mood wouldn’t be so sour.

“Ah?” Yang Jingsheng was taken aback, then said, “Dad, that doesn’t matter too much, does it? If you’re not in charge, just go back to your previous job.”

Yang Tiancheng looked disappointedly at his son.

How could his son think this wasn’t a big deal?

He couldn’t see the gravity of the situation.

The primary reason for this disastrous failure was his mistake in choosing the location.

The boss had plenty of complaints about him.

With the boss unsatisfied, could he have an easy time?

Return to his previous job? That was wishful thinking!

Even if they didn’t ask him to leave outright, they wouldn’t put him in charge of anything important again.

In the end, he would have to leave.

“Dad, why are you looking at me like that?” Yang Jingsheng was confused.

Yang Tiancheng sighed and shook his head, “It’s likely that before long, I’ll have to leave Meiwei Group.”

“Ah?” Yang Jingsheng was startled again, “Dad, why?”

Yang Tiancheng could only patiently explain, “The hotpot project failed, and the boss is handing it over to someone else to handle. I’m afraid everyone in the company will be whispering behind my back, calling me incompetent. Do you think I could stay under those circumstances?”

Finally, Yang Jingsheng understood and said anxiously, “Dad, what are we going to do? If you leave Meiwei Group, can you find a job like this again?”
