Chapter 872: Chapter 913: Having a Child Can Also Lead to a Promotion

However, Song Zhentao soon ceased to be so surprised. Li Yifei, what kind of person was he? He was a Young Master from the Capital City, a distinguished mber of the Su Family. Even if Ye Yunzhu had a solid background, compared to Li Yifei, it was far from enough. The Ye family would probably be more than happy to have Yunzhu get together with Yifei.

Moreover, for him in the political sphere, this had even more significance. The rapid promotion of Yunzhu was, under normal circumstances, beyond what the Ye family’s influence could achieve. Any family in the province might not be able to do the sa; therefore, he had always believed Yunzhu’s promotion was due to connections at a higher level. Now, he finally understood—Yunzhu was Li Yifei’s woman. With the Su Family’s backing, climbing the ranks was naturally much easier.

Before leaving, Song Zhentao smiled at Yunzhu and said, "Little Ye, take good care of yourself and strive to return to work soon. The county’s work can’t do without you."

Yunzhu hurriedly responded, "Thank you, Secretary Song. I think I can go back to work after I finish my postpartum confinent."

Song Zhentao chuckled and said, "Gather so capital in the county early on. Old Wang from the Education Bureau is nearing retirent age."

"Eh, you are..." As Song Zhentao was leaving and everyone naturally wanted to see him out, he had noticed when he ca in that aside from Li Yifei, there were only girls here, and they were all quite pretty. He didn’t allow himself to look too much, but as he was leaving, he saw Ning Xin’er and suddenly felt she looked very familiar, but he couldn’t recall who she was right away.

Ning Xin’er said with ease, "Hello, Secretary Song. I am Ning Xin’er."

"Ning Xin’er... Oh, you really are Ning Xin’er. Haha, I truly didn’t expect you to be here." In Song Zhentao’s position, naturally, he wouldn’t get excited over seeing a star like Xin’er, but he was quite surprised.

Ning Xin’er glanced at Li Yifei and said with a smile, "My man is here, so of course I have to be here too."

Song Zhentao looked at Li Yifei as well, opened his mouth as if to burst out laughing, but imdiately suppressed it. He gave Li Yifei a thumbs-up and said, "Yifei, I am utterly in awe of you."

Li Yifei felt sowhat embarrassed but also smiled and said, "You flatter , Secretary Song."

"And these two..." Song Zhentao then looked at Su Yiyi and Chu Xiaoyao, winking at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei then decisively wrapped his arms around Su Yiyi and Chu Xiaoyao and said, "They are also my won."

Song Zhentao once again gave Li Yifei a thumbs-up and said, "Impressive!"

Song Zhentao’s wife imdiately pinched her husband and chided, "You old rascal, are you also thinking of doing the sa?"

"I wouldn’t dare; Young Li is strong and vigorous, but I’m not up for it."

This joke was sowhat unbecoming of his age, making Ning Xin’er and the others blush, but they also felt sweet inside. Li Yifei rarely acknowledged their relationship so candidly in front of others.

Song Zhentao glanced over the few girls again; he wanted to rember each of them. While he didn’t need to deliberately please Li Yifei, forging a bond with him was clearly beneficial to himself. Therefore, paying attention to the girls around Li Yifei was important, as lending them a helping hand could earn him so favor in the future.

After Song Zhentao left, the girls in the ward were chattering with unabated excitent. Having Li Yifei introduce them in such a way made them truly happy, especially Xiaoyao. Yifei had always treated her like a child, and she was fully aware of that. But now, finally, he saw her as an adult, and she couldn’t be prouder.

But the one most affected was Yunzhu. The hint in Song Zhentao’s words was clear: once Director Wang of the Education Bureau retired, she was very likely to take that position.

Li Yifei looked at Yunzhu, who was deep in thought, and smiled, "It seems my wife is going to be promoted again."

Yunzhu was both delighted and amazed, "He wasn’t just saying that offhand, was he?"

Ning Xin’er laughed and said, "It’s the Municipal Party Secretary; could he be careless with his words? Yunzhu is really impressive, getting a promotion even while at ho having a baby."

Yunzhu glanced at Li Yifei and chided, "You’re not up to your tricks again, are you?"

Li Yifei spread his hands and said, "I didn’t ddle this ti."

Ning Xin’er added, "No need for him to ddle now. With your status and background in Mile City, who can compete? Even Old Master Su has to consider our husband’s opinion. Would getting promoted even be a hassle for you? With Song Zhentao’s convenient gesture of goodwill and his connection to you, it’s a big help for his future. Why wouldn’t he do it?"

Yunzhu smiled and said, "I never expected Xin’er to have such a keen understanding of politics. Why don’t you also enter politics, and let our husband get you a high-ranking position too?"

Ning Xin’er shook her head and said, "I don’t want to take on that kind of burden. Now you have a baby and still need to hold an office, who’s going to take care of the child more than ? It’s better for

to act as an old nanny for you."

Yunzhu looked at her daughter and said, "I wish I could be like you, taking care of my child every day, watching her grow up bit by bit. That would truly be happiness."

Just now, Li Yifei hadn’t had ti to pay attention to Xiaoyao and Yiyi. Seeing Xiaoyao looking a bit downcast and Yiyi still seeming nervous, he knew the recent scuffle had still left the two girls sowhat shaken.

"Xiaoyao, Yiyi, it’s okay now, don’t be afraid, I’m here, who could possibly do anything to you all?" Li Yifei comforted the two.

Chu Xiaoyao pursed her lips, her eyes reddening a bit as she said sowhat sorrowfully, "Uncle, do you think it’s my fault that my parents died?"

Li Yifei ruffled Chu Xiaoyao’s hair and said, "Silly girl, how could it be your fault? Stop overthinking things."

Su Yiyi then also chid in to comfort her, "Xiaoyao, those people are just trying to be nasty on purpose. If you get angry, then you’ll be playing right into their hands."

Chu Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Thank you, Sister Yiyi, for standing up for

just now, ah! I just rembered, Sister Yiyi actually hit soone earlier!" Chu Xiaoyao looked at Su Yiyi with amazent, as if discovering a new world.

anwhile, Ning Xin’er and Ye Yunzhu had not seen what had happened outside and only knew that there had been a commotion. They both had been busy protecting the children, to prevent them from getting frightened. Now, hearing Chu Xiaoyao speak this way, they both looked at Su Yiyi in surprise.

Su Yiyi’s face imdiately flushed red as she stamred, "I... I..."

At this, Li Yifei felt a bit heartbroken for her and wrapped an arm around Su Yiyi’s shoulders, saying, "You did the right thing hitting them. With scum like that, the more passive you are, the more they’ll bully you. So the best approach is to shut their mouths and let them know just how dire the consequences are for provoking us."

Su Yiyi still appeared quite embarrassed and said with a bitter smile, "I don’t even know how I ended up hitting soone just now."

Chu Xiaoyao held onto Su Yiyi’s hand gratefully, saying, "Sister Yiyi, I know you did it to protect . You’ve really been too good to ; you’re just like my real sister."

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Silly girl, Yiyi is indeed your real sister now, so are Xin’er and Yunzhu. What defines a family? This is what a family is: when one person is hurt, the rest co to her aid."

Chu Xiaoyao nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, yes, I understand. I’ll surely do the sa in the future."

After chatting for a bit, Li Yifei stepped out of the ward and took out his phone to make a call. He instructed his n to investigate the matter and find out who exactly was the man trying to take over the ward.

When Li Yifei had returned, he hadn’t understood their conversation at the ti. But after hearing what Chu Xiaoyao had said, he imdiately felt that those people must have known her, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been so aware of the details concerning her parents’ deaths, let alone target and insult Xiaoyao so directly. This wasn’t just about taking over a ward; it was a deliberate attack on Xiaoyao.

Such people posed a danger; although Li Yifei wasn’t about to nip the problem in the bud, he knew to anticipate possible troubles before they arose, rather than waiting to deal with them after they’d happened.

Just after four o’clock, Xu Shanshan brought Little Yifei to the hospital. She had been anxious to co but tangled up with loads of work at the factory since Li Yifei wasn’t there and she simply couldn’t leave, which is why she only managed to co over at this ti.

Little Yifei approached the other children timidly, looking both excited and nervous.

Ye Yunzhu laughed and said, "Yifei, this is your little sister."

"Is she really my little sister?"

"Of course, you are the big sister now, and you have to take good care of your little sister in the future."

"Okay, okay, I will definitely protect my little sister. But... will she steal my toys?"

This question imdiately made everyone burst into laughter.

Accompanying Xu Shanshan were Michelle and He Fangqing. Upon arrival, He Fangqing imdiately went to see the children. Although she had been married, she didn’t have kids of her own, and now, seeing the little ones, she felt an indescribable joy.

Michelle, on the other hand, walked past Li Yifei with her head down, not daring to glance at him. Her unnatural behavior was quickly picked up by Ning Xin’er.

"Hey, what’s going on between you and Michelle?" Ning Xin’er leaned into Li Yifei and nudged him with her shoulder.

Li Yifei gave an awkward smile and said, "Nothing much?"

"What do you an nothing much? Michelle is obviously avoiding you. Did you do sothing beastly to her?"

Li Yifei gave a wry smile and said, "I’m also afraid of seeing her now; I don’t know how to face her."

Ning Xin’er rolled her eyes. It was clear that sothing had happened between Li Yifei and Michelle, but since everyone knew about their feelings for each other, nobody wanted to interfere too much; it was better to let them handle it themselves.

Michelle stayed for a while but then excused herself to leave. He Fangqing, however, wanted to stay a bit longer as she was too fond of the baby and wanted to spend more ti admiring the little one.

Ning Xin’er pushed Li Yifei, saying, "Go and see Michelle off."
