Chapter 184: Family Photo

The manager trembled even more. “President Bo, Special Assistant Mu, it’s all my fault. Please, grant me another chance!”

Mu Qing looked at him and added, “President Bo has long uncovered your deceptive tactics. That piece of land in South City is not our true objective. The genuinely valuable assets lie beneath the surface of the land in North City. They merely utilized you to handle their affairs.”

The manager was instantly stunned, realizing the gravity of his situation, and desperation marked his expression.

“You’ve already violated the law by disclosing the company’s secrets.” As Mu Qing concluded, two police officers entered the office and escorted him away.

Bo Yi’s gaze swept across the room. “Now, is there anyone else ready to confess?”

Fang Yuan finished a hearty meal and relished a rare moment of happiness during a warm family gathering. Despite Cheng Yuqi affecting her mood, her parents showered her with genuine affection, providing a familial warmth she had not experienced since childhood.

“Yuanyuan, go take a shower first. I’ll prepare a surprise for you later!” Qiao Xinhui said with a mysterious smile.

After her shower, Fang Yuan descended the stairs to find fireworks illuminating the night sky outside the window. Qiao Xinhui beamed lovingly and said, “Yuanyuan, come quickly. Let’s capture a family photo!”

A professional cameraman led the team, standing beneath the fireworks, ready and waiting.

The sky lit up with vibrant fireworks as Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui, radiating kindness, held Fang Yuan’s arm. “We’ve been wanting a family photo with you for a long time, but never had the chance. Yuqi happens to be out with friends, so we can finally have a true family portrait.”

“But I’m still in my pajamas…”

Before Fang Yuan could finish speaking, Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui chorused, “It’s okay…” They, too, would wear pajamas, aiming for a casual, everyday look in the family photo they longed to capture.

“Alright, Mr. Cheng, come closer.”

“Mrs. Cheng, your collar is slightly askew. Miss Cheng, give us a brighter smile.”

Fang Yuan beamed widely, and the camera clicked incessantly.

“Alright, let’s change the angle!”

The three of them happily swapped seats, holding hands.

Fang Yuan had never been so intimately close to her parents. Their smiles were affectionate, treating her like their precious treasure.

After the photographer finished in the garden, he directed them to capture some everyday moments in the living room.

After shooting more than ten scenes, Qiao Xinhui remained unsatisfied and wanted to continue.

Cheng Ye smiled and said, “Let Yuanyuan rest for a while. She’s already quite tired today.”

“Mrs. Cheng, we’ve already captured over ten scenes and thousands of photos,” the photographer added, sensing it was time for a break. Too many photos might freeze their smiling faces.

“We’ll take more photos when your brothers return in the future!” Cheng Ye massaged Qiao Xinhui’s shoulders with concern. “Someone, bring tea.”

The servant promptly brought green tea and fruit juice. Qiao Xinhui inserted a straw into the orange juice and handed it to Fang Yuan. “Yuanyuan, you must be tired. Have some orange juice.”

Fang Yuan shook her head, took the orange juice, and had a sip. It was so sweet it tugged at the heart.

“Do you want some snacks?” Cheng Ye placed a plate of snacks in front of Fang Yuan. “Do you like macarons? Or perhaps pudding or fruit pagodas? If you don’t like any, we can have them made again!”

“Dad, Mom, you choose first.” Fang Yuan handed the plate back.

Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui were touched. Despite not having a sweet tooth, they each picked one.

The photographer sent all the photos to Qiao Xinhui’s phone, and as she scrolled through them, her joy was palpable. Each shot captured the essence of the moment so naturally.

“Yuanyuan, quickly take a look and let me know if there’s anything you like. I’ll send it to you.”

Fang Yuan selected a fruit tart accompanied by orange juice. After another glance, she remarked, “They’re all quite good.”

“Then I’ll send them all to you!” Qiao Xinhui sent the photos, admiring each one. “They’re too good, especially these few!”

Cheng Ye noticed her choice for a wallpaper and quipped, “Send it to me too. I want to use it as a wallpaper!”

When Fang Yuan returned to her room, her parents were still immersed in the photos, their faces radiating happiness.

The following morning, as Fang Yuan prepared to leave for work, she encountered Cheng Yuqi. Cheng Yuqi wore an unpleasant expression, likely aware of the family photo shoot from the previous night.

Her resentment was palpable, and she glared at Fang Yuan with simmering anger, as if she wanted to consume her whole.

Fang Yuan cast a brief glance at Cheng Yuqi before redirecting her focus, entering Bo Yi’s car.

Cheng Yuqi’s frustration escalated. She complained to Auntie Wang, “My friends got engaged last night. When I returned, they had already finished taking photos and gone to bed!” Her anger was evident.. How dare they not wait for her to take a family photo! They even set off fireworks and hired a renowned photographer, then went to sleep without considering her feelings!
