Seeing his hand being blocked, the man looked at Yang Yan with some displeasure:

"How should I address you?"

"Put away your disgusting thoughts, and get inside before I lose my temper! Otherwise, bear the consequences yourself."

Yang Yan didn't beat around the bush and directly spelled it out for the man.

"You..."

The man, struck in the heart, was momentarily speechless. After quickly glancing at Zhou Hanyu, he coldly said:

"A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin, I can't be bothered to stoop to your level."

He finished speaking and intended to turn around and go back into the store.

"Heh! Still calling people country bumpkins, what are you? Daring to talk to him like that?"

Suddenly, a young man slowly walked over, sneering as he spoke.

"Young Master Zheng, why are you here?"

Although he was scolded by this young man, the man didn't dare to talk back and instead, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, asked in shock.

"What? I can't come to my own store? Oh! Right, go to the finance office, tell them I said it, settle your pay, and get out!"

The young man, addressed as Young Master Zheng, spoke indifferently.

The man looked very fearful of this young man named Zheng in front of him.

Although he was reluctant, he didn't dare to say more than a word when told to settle his accounts and leave, so he walked away dejectedly.

The young man with the surname Zheng glanced at Yang Yan and then said somewhat displeased:

"How come you came to the Imperial Capital and didn't call me? Are you looking down on us brothers?"

Yang Yan chuckled:

"Get out! I've only been here a few days. Haven't even handled my business properly, where's the time to look for you bastards? Moreover, your gang would have known I arrived here."

This young man named Zheng Peng has an ordinary name, but his family background is far from ordinary.

This guy's dad is named Zheng Song, one of the most powerful businessmen in Huaxia.

Not just Huaxia, even looking worldwide, his family's power should not be underestimated.

However, this guy in front of me is an outlier.

Born into such an elite family, he has a penchant for making desserts.

Despite opposition from his family, he managed to achieve considerable success.

This dessert shop, named "First Love" before our eyes, is his masterpiece.

Perhaps ordinary people don't know it, but this brand is rated as one of the top ten tastiest dessert brands in the world.

It holds a very high status among Huaxia's high-end dessert shops.

Zheng Peng exaggeratedly rolled his eyes and said in an annoyed tone:

"Wasn't it Phoenix Lady who told us? Two days ago, she told us that you arrived in the Imperial Capital, but she said you were traveling with a beauty and told us to wait a few days before bothering you. So, we haven't come to see you in the past few days."

"Of course, since we met today, we're not letting you go. We must find a place to have a good drink."

As Zheng Peng spoke, he got someone from the store to bring the three girls the extravagant cake they had started looking at and then invited the three little girls to the nearby rest area.

"Eat up, this cake tastes great."

Zheng Peng carefully placed the cake on the table and said with a smile.

The three little girls wanted to taste the cake's flavor, but without Yang Yan or Zhou Hanyun nodding, they didn't move.

So, the three of them all looked at Yang Yan and Zhou Hanyun with a face full of longing.

Yang Yan smiled and then gently pushed the cake in front of the three girls:

"Be careful, don't get it on yourselves; we still have to go shopping later."

With Yang Yan's permission, the three hurriedly picked up the small forks in front of them, ready to dig in.

And Zhou Hanyun and Zhou Hanyu also smiled and helped them divide the cake.

"You've been back in Huaxia for so long, why haven't you come to the Imperial Capital to see us?"

Zheng Peng glanced at the five people busy around the cake and looked at Yang Yan a bit seriously.

"I originally planned to come back for a vacation, but when I returned, I found there were too many things, I simply couldn't cope, and didn't have time to contact you guys. Plus, this time, it was some business that brought me to the Imperial Capital."

Yang Yan said with some helplessness.

"Hmph! Just because you're a busy person, even with a busy schedule, you should take some time to hang out with us old brothers, right?"

Zheng Peng said somewhat dissatisfied.

"Alright, alright, it's my fault, my fault, okay? I'm planning to buy a house in the Imperial Capital. Unless something unexpected happens, I'll be around here for some time. You inform the others, once I've settled in, everyone should come over for a gathering."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

Hearing this, Zheng Peng couldn't help but frown:

"If you're buying a house, talk to Wang Yu! His family deals in real estate. If you say the word, forget a house, even a courtyard house, he could give you one."

Yang Yan wiped the cream off Cai'Er's mouth and smiled:

"Forget it, such small matters don't bother him. Moreover, this time, I'm genuinely planning to buy that type of courtyard house. Because there's some work to do, so it's a bit troublesome."

Zheng Peng said nonchalantly:

"Alright, suit yourself. But once you've dealt with your stuff, remember to inform me first!"

"Alright, alright, let's leave it at that!"

After Yang Yan finished speaking, he glanced at the people still eating and said with a smile:

"Let's go, eat while we walk."

The three little girls eagerly nodded, each carrying a portion of the cake as they left the dessert shop.

Watching them leave, Zheng Peng sighed with a bitter smile, then took out his phone and sent a group message.

"Who was that person? He seemed pretty good."

Zhou Hanyu asked while eating cake.

"Zheng Peng, the founder of 'First Love,' I met him during a previous trip to the Imperial Capital. He's indeed a good person."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

Seeing that Yang Yan seemed a bit dismissive, Zhou Hanyu decided not to dig deeper, and the group continued to an elevator heading to the third floor.

Once on the third floor, they immediately spotted a kids' clothing store up ahead.

Just as they were about to enter, Yang Yan suddenly stopped, murmuring to himself:

"Looks like we won't be able to buy anything today."

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Zhou Hanyun asked, baffled.

"Yeah! Some interesting people want to meet me. Ah! I can't avoid it!"

Yang Yan sighed lightly.

"If you have something to do, go ahead. We'll just browse around."

Zhou Hanyun suggested tentatively.

Glancing at the disappointed faces of Dawn and Ruyi, Yang Yan nodded and said:

"Alright, you guys go look around for a while, and once I'm done, I'll come find you."

As soon as Yang Yan finished speaking, Zhou Hanyun and Zhou Hanyu took the three girls' hands and headed to the kids' clothing store ahead.

Once they were inside, Yang Yan glanced back and, without saying anything, headed straight towards the nearby Starbucks.
