Since Zhang Xin’s grandfather was admitted to the hospital, Qu Chaozong has beco the main caretaker for the elderly. Mr. Zhang is busy with work at the mall, and really can’t spare any ti. Before leaving, he unusually thanked Qu Chaozong with a calm tone: "During this ti, I’m entrusting you with taking care of the old man and Da Bao."
Qu Chaozong was montarily flattered, just shy of raising his hand in an oath to complete the task.
Qu Chaozong was busy at the hospital, which ant he couldn’t quite attend to matters at the company. Shi Yang was down a vital arm, overwheld with work and forced to make the decision to assign Xu Hongbin to temporarily take over Qu Chaozong’s position.
Poor Xu Hongbin had no transitional period as an intern and had to shoulder important responsibilities. After a day of hectic work, without Shi Yang needing to add pressure, he voluntarily stayed late every night to work overti, forcing himself to quickly integrate into the work. It wasn’t long before he gradually adapted.
When Zhao Wendada brought over the printed recruitnt copy for the early childhood education class to Shi Yang, he couldn’t help but praise: "Mr. Shi, I found out you’re really precise at judging people. Before, I thought Xiao Xu couldn’t do Chaozi’s work. But unexpectedly, in just a few days, everything’s smoothed out."
Shi Yang took the docunt and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu is like a sponge; his abilities can’t be revealed until sufficiently pressured. However, although he’s quite responsible in his work, he’s a bit too ticulous. Wenda, pay attention and give him so guidance when needed."
Zhao Wendada readily agreed. After Shi Yang finished reviewing the copy, he asked, "Who are you planning to send to headquarters for ordering sumr new products this ti?"
Shi Yang looked up at Zhao Wendada. As soon as their eyes t, he understood; Zhao Wendada obviously intended to volunteer himself.
Shi Yang leaned back in his chair, squinting at Zhao Wendada, "I haven’t thought about it. But if you want to go, I might consider it. There’s just one condition."
Zhao Wendada was startled, "What condition?"
Shi Yang said solemnly, "If you plan to have a flash wedding in the future, don’t schedule it in the sa month as mine, or there’ll be no one left to manage the company."
Zhao Wendada was taken aback by this sentence; it took him two seconds to react. Two red blushes surged on his dark face: "Damn, Mr. Shi, you’re teasing !"
Shi Yang laughed, "Who’s teasing you? I’m serious."
Zhao Wendada laughed along, his smile simple and honest.
Shi Yang handed him the docunt, "Not bad, just photocopy this as is. I’ve already sealed the deal with the West District store. We’ve scheduled to sign the contract tomorrow, so you’ll co with to discuss the specific decoration plan."
Zhao Wendada was surprised, "So soon? Didn’t we say to check it out first?"
Shi Yang replied, "The building looks quite good to ; it’s three stories high and used to be a kindergarten. The classrooms are already partitioned, and much of the decoration inside can be used. We just need to make minor adjustnts. I’ll take you to see it tomorrow, and you’ll understand."
"Okay, I’ll contact the copy center first." Zhao Wendada said, taking the docunt with him.
Shi Yang glanced at the office door Zhao Wendada closed behind him, casually picked up his phone, checked the ti, and sent a ssage to Zhao ii: Big Baby, what are you doing?
During the mid-class discussion ti, Zhao ii was chatting with Peng Hui and Qian Sing, feeling her phone vibrate. She took it out, glanced at it, and couldn’t help but smile as she replied joyfully: Missing you.
Peng Hui saw it and teased her, "Wow, you’ve been an old couple for so long, and still so mushy. Does your brother usually call you Big Baby? So what do you call your brother?"
Zhao ii looked up lightly, "What kind of nonsense is that? Of course, I call him brother."
Peng Hui turned to wink at Qian Sing, "I thought ii might call her brother Big Baby too."
Qian Sing burst into laughter, and Zhao ii laughed as well.
The three of them joked around for a while. Then, another phone rang, this ti it was Peng Hui’s phone. She quickly said to Zhao ii and Qian Sing, "It’s my sister calling; cover for ."
Peng Hui ducked under the table, hand covering the phone: "Hello, sis... Ah, okay, okay, I got it. I’ll buy it after school... Okay, just wait at ho... I’m hanging up."
Peng Hui crawled out from under the table, Zhao ii asked, "What’s up?"
Peng Hui said, "My sister’s been nauseated all day, couldn’t stand it, and asked to buy so dried plums from the grid shop at our school in the evening. Hey, are you guys coming with tonight? Isn’t it a fifty-minus-five deal? Aren’t you buying sothing?"
Zhao ii responded with a question rather than answering, "Is your sister really planning to keep the baby?"
Peng Hui nodded, "It’s been four months already. The doctor said we’d need induced labor, and if we truly go for it, it’ll be quite harmful to the body. Plus, my sister can’t bear to lose the baby."
Qian Sing, more gossip hungry than Zhao ii, asked, "Peng Hui, how did your sister get pregnant anyway?"
Peng Hui didn’t hide it from them, "At that ti, the divorce proceedings hadn’t been fully settled. Sun Yingyu ca looking for my sister, and they argued. Sun Yingyu was slightly drunk."
Zhao ii’s eyes widened, "This, this counts as sothing within marriage, right?"
Peng Hui understood what she ant; her expression didn’t look good: "Otherwise, my parents wouldn’t strictly want my sister to abort the child. On one hand, they think it’ll be difficult to remarry with a child in tow. On the other hand, they believe soone like Sun Yingyu won’t take care of the kid. Honestly, I think my parents have a point, but the problem is, my sister won’t listen; she just can’t stand to lose the baby."
Peng Hui finished speaking, then changed the topic, "Hey, by the way, are you guys coming with to the grid shop tonight?"
Zhao ii nodded, "Sure, I want to buy so beef jerky anyway. What about you, ngng?"
Qian Sing shook her head, "I won’t go. Since Peng Hui won’t return to the dormitory tonight, I’ll head to the canteen for dinner. If I go too late, there’ll be no good dishes."
That night after returning ho, Shi Yang was cooking in the kitchen. Zhao ii was crunching on a leftover piece of carrot that Shi Yang had cut and left out: "Brother, what do you think, is what Sun Yingyu did considered illegal?"
Shi Yang was flipping the dishes in the pan with a spatula, "Probably not illegal, since there was no divorce; they’re still a couple. At most, it’s a matter for moral education."
Zhao ii took a bite of carrot, "Who does the educating?"
Shi Yang answered casually, "Police? Or maybe the won’s federation? Honestly, I’m not really sure... Alright, stop chewing; eating raw carrots isn’t nutritious."
Zhao ii leaned closer and stuffed the remaining carrot piece into Shi Yang’s mouth, "It’s so sweet... Sweet, right?"
Shi Yang chewed a couple of tis, "Yep, sweet."
