Ye Qiu hadn't eaten from morning until now, and having gone through so much earlier, he was exhausted and very hungry.
After sitting down again, he didn't put on airs and just started eating heartily.
Ye Lao originally wanted to chat with Ye Qiu, but seeing him eat without any formality, he didn't interrupt and instead showed a more satisfied smile.
If it were another young person, they might try to ingratiate themselves with sweet words at this moment, but not Ye Qiu. His unaffected manner greatly pleased Ye Lao.
At the same time, a decision vaguely formed in Ye Lao's heart, but it still required time and observation of Ye Qiu to determine whether it could be implemented.
Ye Xuan noticed Ye Qiu ignoring Ye Lao and eating by himself, and she slightly furrowed her willow-like eyebrows, wanting to remind Ye Lao that he was still there, but Ye Lao waved her off.
Seeing her usually stern grandfather smiling as he kept looking at Ye Qiu with satisfaction in his expression, Ye Xuan was puzzled.
"What's so great about this Ye Qiu that even Grandpa is so satisfied with him?"
Ye Xuan propped her clean chin on her hand, watching Ye Qiu gobble down his food across from her.
Ye Qiu seemed to sense their gaze, and after swallowing his food, he gave an awkward smile to Ye Lao and Ye Xuan, who were watching him.
Then he scratched his head and said, "Hehe, I was a bit hungry!"
"No problem, keep eating!" Ye Lao said.
Ye Xuan rolled her eyes at Ye Qiu: "Starving ghost."
Ye Qiu chuckled, took a big gulp from the wine glass in front of him, and then asked, seeing Ye Lao and Ye Xuan not eating, "You're not eating?"
The two shook their heads, and Ye Qiu nodded: "Then I'll eat some more, still a bit hungry!"
Saying this, he ignored their gaze and truly continued eating.
Ye Lao gave a helpless smile, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Ye Qiu with even more satisfaction.
At this time, Ye Han, who had not planned well, walked over to Ye Qiu with a smile on his face.
After arriving by Ye Qiu's side, he saluted Ye Lao and said, "Hello, Grandpa."
Then he glanced at Ye Qiu who was devouring food, a look of mockery flashing deep in his eyes as he thought, "This guy really is a reincarnated starving ghost!"
However, he still maintained his smile and was just about to say something when Ye Qiu looked up and said, "Hey little brother, you're hungry, right? Sit down and eat something!"
Ye Han forced a smile and nodded, sat next to Ye Qiu, and was just about to speak when Ye Lao stood up, patted Ye Qiu on the shoulder, and said, "You eat first, then come to the study to find me, let's have a chat."
Ye Qiu nodded and agreed.
After Ye Lao left, Ye Qiu sat down and continued eating.
Once Ye Lao was gone, Ye Han relaxed a bit, but still wearing a smile, he said to Ye Qiu, "I say…"
"Hey, wait…" Ye Qiu suddenly gestured for him to stop.
Ye Han frowned, "What's up?"
Ye Qiu took a sip of red wine, cleared his throat, then smiled at Ye Han and said, "Just had to swallow that, hehe, go ahead!"
Ye Han cursed inwardly and then said, "Um…"
"Wait…"
"What now?" Ye Han asked.
Ye Qiu told the servant behind him, "Could you please bring me a bowl of soup, thank you!"
After that, Ye Qiu gave an apologetic smile to Ye Han, "What were you saying?"
"This kid's doing it on purpose, right!" Ye Han was displeased inside, his face looking a bit unhappy, "I was saying…"
"Uh!"
Just as the words left his mouth, Ye Qiu suddenly burped. Ye Han was about to get angry, but Ye Qiu shrugged helplessly, "It's not my fault, it's just the… uh…"
And continued to burp,
Ye Han was furious, but in the end, he said nothing, just sat down and took a fierce bite of an apple, glaring at Ye Qiu.
After a long time, Ye Qiu calmed down and asked Ye Han, "What do you want with me?"
In fact, he had already overheard Ye Han's conversation with Ouyang Feng earlier, thanks to his system-enhanced body, his hearing was already quite strong.
"Are you okay now?" Ye Han was a bit afraid and asked.
Ye Qiu nodded, "Go on."
Ye Han sorted out his thoughts, glanced at Ouyang Feng, then said, "It's like this, I heard you're also a racer."
Ye Qiu was already prepared, nodded, "Sort of, but my driving skills aren't great."
Ye Qiu intended to keep a low profile.
Ye Han sneered inwardly, "I knew your driving skills were poor."
But he said with a smile, "That's okay! Tomorrow night at Baling Mountain, those foreigners will come to challenge our Huaxia Celestial Dragon Racing Team's drivers."
"Oh, what's it got to do with me? I'm not even a racer for the Celestial Dragon Racing Team, plus my driving skills aren't good…"
Ye Qiu smiled and said.
Ye Han frowned, suddenly enraged, and pointed at Ye Qiu, "Don't you have any sense of national pride? Those foreigners are bullying us, and you're indifferent? Are you even Chinese?"
Ye Qiu gave a faint smile, seeing Ye Han's apparent hatred for those foreigners was understandable.
After all, every Huaxia citizen harbored strong feelings of resentment toward the past invaders.
"What's it got to do with me, does this prove I'm not patriotic?" Ye Qiu said, "Just say what you want me to do."
Seeing that Ye Qiu didn't want to waste words, Ye Han sneered and said, "Alright, I'll just say it outright, tomorrow night, you'll be an assistant for our Huaxia racer!"
A racing assistant is supposed to help the racer observe track conditions, the opponent's car situation, and their own vehicle condition from the co-driver's seat.
An assistant is essential for racers, typically making a team, although for some highly skilled drivers, they are optional.
"Doesn't the Celestial Dragon Racing Team have any assistants? Don't tell me such a big team doesn't have even one assistant?"
Ye Qiu said.
Ye Han frowned, and at this moment, Ouyang Feng spoke, "The Celestial Dragon Racing Team of course has assistants, but there's no one who can be Assistant to Situ Yang!"
"Situ Yang?" Ye Qiu blinked, gave a slight smile, and then asked, "So how do you think I can possibly be his assistant?"
Ouyang Feng frowned, just about to say what he had planned, but Ye Qiu stood up and said, "No need to say, I agree."
"What, you agreed?" Ye Han and Ouyang Feng exchanged a glance, a hint of conspiratorial victory appearing in their eyes.
Ye Qiu seemed not to notice their expressions, said, "Tomorrow night, right?"
Seeing them nod, Ye Qiu smiled slightly, then turned and followed the servant towards Ye Lao's study, wondering what Ye Lao wanted to discuss with him.
As Ye Han and Ouyang Feng watched Ye Qiu's back, they laughed coldly. Ouyang Feng said, "This kid actually agreed, tomorrow night he'll take the blame!"
Ye Han said, "The way he agreed, as if he's so amazing, does he really think just because he's called Ye Qiu, he actually is Ye Qiu? Damn, after tomorrow night he'll take the blame, I'll really ridicule him, make sure he stops showing off in front of me..."
