Chapter 63
The rotten grape from his son was just a small perk. The real birthday gift for He Renyuan was a cute three-wheeled electric scooter that Da Cha and Xiao Cha worked hard at the milk tea shop to save up for.
It was light green, with a child’s seat shaped like a chubby airplane welded to the side.
Bai Qingyu had inquired, He Renyuan had all kinds of cars, but no three-wheeled scooter.
Men loved cars. Bai Qingyu decided to give him a car. He could afford the top model, ten thousand yuan, befitting a CEO’s status.
This way, the three of them could ride together. The tea deity would drive, He Renyuan would sit behind him, and Cha Bao would sit in the sidecar, with a backrest and armrests, super cute.
Bai Qingyu had an electric scooter he got from the principal, but it couldn’t fit three people. He Renyuan had long arms and legs, even if the traffic police turned a blind eye, Cha Bao would be squeezed.
“Dad, Dad and I have a present for you!” Cha Bao couldn’t help but reveal his dad’s plan.
They had shaken milk tea for a long, long time.
A rotten grape was enough to sweeten President He’s heart, and there was even a birthday gift!
“Thank you, Cha Bao, thank you, wife, I’m looking forward to it.”
Grandpa Housekeeper thoughtfully moved He Renyuan’s luxury car out of the best parking spot and covered the large gift with a car cover and red flowers to keep it a surprise.
He Renyuan looked at the completely covered gift, clueless, “What is it?”
Bai Qingyu, “Uncover it and see.”
He Renyuan looked at the size and wondered if it was an outdoor bathtub? There was only an indoor pool at home, no way for the tea deity to soak while looking at the sky.
He uncovered it. Wow, a three-wheeled scooter! It looked expensive! Even luxury cars couldn’t compare to a gift from his wife!
Cha Bao cheered and climbed into the child seat, fastening his seatbelt, “Dad, let’s drive.”
He Renyuan unbuckled his seatbelt and lifted the little one out.
Bai Xiaocha, “Huh?”
“Wait, Dad needs to test drive it.”
People used to two-wheeled and four-wheeled vehicles would lose their balance at first when driving a three-wheeled scooter, it would be fine after two laps.
There was a path around the villa, the width just right for driving. This low-speed scooter would be a good vehicle within the courtyard.
He Renyuan’s long legs made the scooter look even smaller, the sidecar like an appendage to his calf.
Bai Qingyu and the little one stared at him intently.
He Renyuan thought for a moment, “Stand on the steps, don’t stand by the road.”
The safety of his wife and child was his priority when trying anything new.
Bai Xiaocha obediently ran to the steps at the door, “Dad, I’m ready.”
“Good boy.” He Renyuan glanced at the tea deity who thought he was skilled, “Aren’t you coming?”
Bai Qingyu, “You can’t hit me, and even if you do, it’s fine, I can dodge.”
He Renyuan remembered the time he was hit by an electric scooter while picking mangoes. Dodge? My ass.
He got off the scooter and pulled Bai Qingyu onto the steps.
Bai Xiaocha leaned against his dad’s leg, Baby was the most obedient.
He Renyuan, “Good job, Cha Bao, make sure Dad doesn’t come down.”
Bai Xiaocha, “Okay.”
Under the father and son’s watchful eyes, He Renyuan inserted the key, turned on the lights, gently twisted the handle, and the scooter slowly started.
He Renyuan’s palms were a little sweaty, but his expression was calm as he drove along the path around the garden.
After one lap, the sweat on his palms was blown away by the wind, and He Renyuan was in complete control.
“Dad is coming!” Cha Bao shouted.
He Renyuan parked handsomely at the bottom of the steps, as if driving a convertible, and turned his head, “Get on.”
Bai Qingyu squeezed in with He Renyuan, his arms around He Renyuan’s waist. Cha Bao had his own seat, lonely but spacious, with a full view, his small stature not blocked by the front.
The family of three slowly cruised around the villa. There was no traffic on their own road, only occasional stops.
Grandpa Housekeeper stood at the gate with a plate of fried meat crisps. Like a supply station, every time Cha Bao passed by, he handed him two, and every two laps, he gave him water.
Playing with the car as soon as they got back, the little young master must be hungry. After shaking milk tea all day, Madam must also be hungry.
As for the young master who just returned from a business trip, the driver couldn’t eat while driving.
The villa was unusually busy, preparing a birthday dinner for He Renyuan.
He Wangzhong and Shu Mei arrived with uninspired gifts for their son and carefully selected gifts for their grandson. They saw the family of three riding the scooter.
He, the driver, didn’t dare stop without Cha Bao’s permission. He gave the housekeeper a look, but the housekeeper didn’t understand.
Bai Xiaocha enjoyed the early summer breeze and the meat crisps, more and more comfortable. He would work again next time to buy a gift for Dad.
When his parents arrived, He Renyuan finally found a chance to stop, “Grandpa and Grandma are here.”
Bai Xiaocha wiped his hands and was immediately picked up by his grandpa.
“The restaurant Grandpa opened for Cha Bao will open on Children’s Day, Cha Bao can invite his friends.”
Bai Xiaocha had been there once, asked about his preferences for the decor and food, and only answered “like” and “like more.”
While the grandfather and grandson were chatting, He Renyuan held his wife’s hand and led him into the greenhouse, stealing a kiss.
He had been on a business trip for two days and hadn’t held his wife yesterday.
Bai Qingyu, thinking it was He Renyuan’s birthday, let him be, until he reached inside his clothes, then stopped him seriously, “Dinner first.”
He Renyuan, “Okay.”
His parents were staying tonight, they could take care of Cha Bao.
He Renyuan, the birthday boy, was in high spirits. He entered the brightly lit villa, a smile on his face, and saw his father looking at a green trash can.
The trash can suitcase Bai Qingyu bought was now a toy box in the living room, containing Cha Bao’s various balls.
When he wanted to play, he would pour out all the balls, big and small, and kick them around.
There were other uncles coming today, Cha Bao’s toys had to be put away. Bai Xiaocha obediently pushed the trash can into his room.
He Wangzhong found the scene familiar and quickly found a screenshot in his limited chat history with his son, from a rainy day.
Was his grandson the child in that touching photo of the sanitation worker and his son?!
He Wangzhong blinked in disbelief. The photo only showed their backs, the child dressed simply. But comparing the adult’s back to Bai Qingyu’s, it was definitely him.
He Wangzhong had always known that his grandson didn’t have a good life before He Renyuan found him, but seeing this picture still broke his heart.
He Renyuan glanced at the delicious food on the table, two noodle dishes clearly made by his father.
He Renyuan had learned how to get along with his father through interacting with his son, “Dad, the noodles smell good.”
He Wangzhong said angrily, “All you know is eating!”
He Renyuan: ?
Sigh, not all sons were the same, his father wasn’t destined to have such a good son like Cha Bao.
He Wangzhong, “Look, is this Cha Bao in the photo? I sent it to you, and you were indifferent, saying you had no fatherly love, mocking me for wanting to be a grandpa.”
He Renyuan paused, remembering seeing Bai Qingyu’s suitcase, Bai Xiaocha’s nest, being thrown into the trash at the bus stop.
“Sorry, I didn’t think of it then.”
He Wangzhong always thought that He Ying introducing Bai Qingyu as a housekeeper was the end of the story, he didn’t expect Bai Qingyu to have worked as a sanitation worker, “Did you fire Qingyu?”
He Renyuan, “…Yes.”
He Wangzhong was truly shocked, “How could you?”
The housekeeper hurriedly added fuel to the fire, “Please calm down, sir, the young master immediately regretted it and chased after them. He watched Young Master Xu pick up the little young master, came back drenched, and couldn’t eat for three days.”
He Wangzhong, “Really? You chased after them but didn’t bring them back, what were you thinking?”
He Renyuan’s mind was filled with jealousy of Xu Zhao at that time.
Bai Qingyu didn’t understand what old scores they were settling at first, then realized it was about the time Cha Bao was discovered.
He held He Renyuan’s hand and asked, “You looked for me? You never said.”
No wonder Cha Bao suddenly said “it’s Uncle’s car” in the car, he had seen He Renyuan’s car.
He Renyuan, “It’s nothing, I was terrible to you.”
The first night he returned, Bai Qingyu and Bai Xiaocha stayed outside, afraid to come home. The next day, after he saw Cha Bao, Bai Qingyu resigned with Cha Bao. These were the two things he felt most sorry for Bai Qingyu about.
Bai Qingyu coaxed, “You weren’t terrible, I couldn’t be a bully housekeeper at anyone else’s house.”
He Wangzhong felt sorry for Bai Qingyu and Xiao Cha and made a decision, “Before you get your marriage certificate, transfer the house to Qingyu.”
He Renyuan agreed without hesitation, “Okay.”
Bai Qingyu didn’t care whose name was on the house deed, because no one told him there were transfer fees.
He was afraid He Renyuan would still blame himself on his birthday, so he said to cheer him up, “Old Man Deng’s new house is almost finished, there’s a study for you.”
He Renyuan was wary, “Separate rooms?”
Bai Qingyu, “No, for you to work, you don’t have to fold cardboard boxes with us every time.” Last time, during the May Day holiday, President He also spent a day doing handicrafts with them.
He Renyuan’s education and hourly wage were so high, folding cardboard boxes was a waste.
He Renyuan was speechless, “It’s not a waste for a tea deity and Cha Bao to fold cardboard boxes?”
Bai Qingyu probably didn’t know how much money his face could attract. He Renyuan’s friend, who ran an entertainment company, kept trying to poach him, but he refused every time.
Thanks to the cardboard boxes, although Cha Bao’s academic performance suffered because of his sleeping habit, his handicraft skills were excellent, meticulous and precise, clearly a skilled worker, earning little red flower rewards every day.
He Wangzhong took out a stack of 50% off and free coupons for Cha Bao Restaurant, the 50% off ones for Bai Qingyu to buy tea at the company with limited-time delivery, the free ones for Cha Bao to give to his friends at kindergarten.
This news was leaked early on the Shu He internal forum, He Wangzhong’s way of helping Bai Qingyu with the milk tea price increase PR. His daughter-in-law was also a business genius.
The forum was buzzing.
1231: [President He’s birthday, milk tea price increase, Young Master’s Children’s Day, half-day off and free Cha Bao Restaurant, who’s the real boss goes without saying.]
1232: [Young Master, I will follow you forever!]
1233: [Who understands, my son gets free milk tea at kindergarten, shaken once a week, he secretly brought some home for me last time, my god, it was amazing!]
1234: [Can childless employees enroll with their offer letters?]
