Tarik's gaze flickered.
It wasn't too late to know, he knew what he had to do.
Uncle Yu said only a few simple words afterward before letting Tarik go back.
He wasn't feeling settled today and wanted to rest alone.
Tarik, with great consideration, chose to leave the Yu family villa, not wanting to disturb them further.
The moment Tarik left, Mrs. Yu asked with a look of bewilderment, "Didn't you say Tarik was staying for dinner? I've already had the snacks prepared."
"Can't I be tired!" Uncle Yu said irritably, "Am I a robot!"
"..." Hearing the anger in her husband's voice, Mrs. Yu glanced at the tablet on the table, still illuminated, and had a slight inkling.
Looking at her husband, who had been competitive his entire life, Mrs. Yu sighed slowly, walked over to him, wrapped her arms around his shoulders, and said softly, "It's been many years since we've returned to visit. How about... you accompany me back for a trip?"
"What's so good about going back." Although he said that, Uncle Yu's furrowed brow had already relaxed slightly. "If you want to go back, ask Susan to book the tickets. Don't book them too soon; I'm very busy lately!"
"Okay." Mrs. Yu's lips curved slightly. After all these years of arguing, bickering, and compromising, she knew how to deal with this stubborn old man.
Mrs. Yu contacted Susan and checked Uncle Yu's schedule. She found that he had an economics forum to attend at the end of the month, so she asked Susan to book the tickets for the following month.
It wasn't until evening that Uncle Yu casually asked, "So, have the tickets been booked?"
"Booked. We're going back next month," Mrs. Yu replied.
"Next month? Why do something that can be done this month and delay it until next month!" Uncle Yu's voice rose a few decibels, and his brow furrowed.
"Didn't you say you were too busy? Extremely busy!" Mrs. Yu felt a bit confused. "I asked Susan to check your schedule, and you have a forum meeting at the end of this month..."
"Can't those dispensable things be pushed back!" Uncle Yu's voice grew louder.
"You!" Hearing this, Mrs. Yu also flared up with a nameless anger. She slammed the table, making the cups and saucers rattle, "Yu! Am I giving you too much leeway!"
"..." Uncle Yu shivered and fell silent.
Seeing that Uncle Yu had quieted down, Mrs. Yu snorted and said, "The third of next month! We'll be gone for two weeks. Before that, settle all your affairs! Do your work properly, no postponing! No being willful! Do you hear me!
And also! No leftover cilantro! Do you know how expensive cilantro is here!"
"I hear you..." Uncle Yu's voice was much quieter. After a while, he clicked his tongue and used his spoon to mash the cilantro leaves on his plate.
His expression was full of grievance.
Meanwhile, Tarik personally contacted Yu Linwan.
Upon receiving the young master's call, Yu Linwan was a bit stunned and very excited.
It must be because of her kindness to Mo Jianing that the young master found out, and her contributions to the entire show were noticed by him!
"Young Master, what are your instructions?" Yu Linwan asked, her expression excited, but she tried her best to keep her tone calm, making her voice sound stable and reliable.
"Your talent show has someone named Yu Yinyin." Tarik said directly, "No matter what method you use, you must ensure she debuts in the center position and becomes the most popular star in country Z within two months!"
"Wh-what!" Yu Linwan was completely dumbfounded this time.
Who? Yu Yinyin? Why Yu Yinyin of all people?!
"Is there a problem?" Tarik, sensing the wrongness in Yu Linwan's tone, immediately asked.
"No, no!" Yu Linwan dared not let Tarik know that she had already driven Yu Yinyin away. She could only bite the bullet and agree, "I will work hard!"
"I don't care how hard you work; I only care about the final result." Tarik hated the word 'effort' the most.
Those who always talk about 'effort' are often the opposite in their actions.
Those who are truly working hard do not boast about how much effort they are putting in.
"Yes..." Yu Linwan's throat tightened. She then corrected herself, "I will definitely achieve it!"
This was the first task the young master had given her, and he had personally given it.
Even Mo Jianing had only sent someone to relay a message asking her to take care.
This Yu Yinyin must mean even more to the young master.
Recalling Bai Yuqi who accompanied Yu Yinyin today, and Yu Yinyin's timid and self-deprecating demeanor, a hint of anger flickered in Yu Linwan's eyes.
Good for you, Yu Yinyin, you sure know how to act.
So, men all like these timid, little white flowers, is that it?
Disgusting!
Although she found Yu Yinyin's actions disgusting, Yu Linwan dared not question anything she said, and the jealousy in her eyes was undeniable.
She couldn't understand, first Mo Jianing, then Yu Yinyin.
What made these two women better than her?
Why wasn't she the one receiving attention?
Yu Linwan felt increasingly unbalanced. Unable to suppress her frustration, she asked, "Young Master, what about Mo Jianing..."
"I don't want to hear any other excuses," Tarik interrupted Yu Linwan with a stern tone. "That's all."
With that, he hung up the phone.
Yu Linwan held her phone, her brows furrowed.
Unwilling.
At this moment, a servant brought dinner, "Madam, it's time to eat."
"Leave it on the table." Yu Linwan glanced at the dishes the servant brought and frowned furiously, "How many times have I told you! I don't eat cilantro! Do you have any brains at all! You can't even do this simple thing!"
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!" The servant lowered her head and apologized immediately, "I'll go change it right away."
"Hurry up and change it!" Yu Linwan glared fiercely at the servant and said coldly, "One more time and you're fired! Get out!"
The servant lowered her head, carrying the dishes, and quickly walked out.
"What a waste," Yu Linwan let out a long sigh and impatiently took out her phone, finding her secretary's number. "Find Yu Yinyin's contact information."
"Ah?" The secretary was also a bit stunned. "Manager Yu, didn't you just tell us today to destroy everything related to Yu Yinyin and that you never wanted to hear anything about Yu Yinyin again..."
"Are you questioning me?" Yu Linwan raised an eyebrow.
"No, no." The secretary braced herself and said, "I, I'll find it as soon as possible. I hope Manager Yu can give me some time."
"If I don't see Yu Yinyin's contact information when I come to work tomorrow morning, you don't need to come either," Yu Linwan said irritably and hung up the phone, her mood becoming even more unpleasant. "They're all useless!"
