Fang Xiaonuan asked curiously, “Hubby, then why do you want me to make a decision? Don’t you already have your own ideas?”
Ji Lingchen smiled lightly as he stroked his wife’s hair. “I’ll let you decide.”
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned. Her husband was just going to let her decide when the contract was worth more than a billion?
She continued to ask, “What if my decision is the opposite of what you want?”
“I think that the second-in-command of the company schemes too much. He wanted to compete fairly for the position, yet he insisted on using underhanded methods.”
“Furthermore, he even took advantage of my husband and my father. He must have a very bad character!”
“Relatively speaking, I think that Director Tang may not be very capable, but his character is not a problem. Working together would put us at ease…”
“So, husband, let’s continue working with them!”
Ji Lingchen knew that his little wife would definitely not let him down.
Ji Lingchen said, “Alright, I’ll get the lawyer to deliver the contract in a while.” After saying that, he even touched his little wife’s hair. Her hair was thin and soft, like that of a child.
Fang Xiaonuan was wearing the bracelet that her husband had given her. She thought about it and felt that she should express her gratitude. Therefore, before going downstairs, she stood on her tiptoes and quickly kissed her husband on the cheek. Then, she ran downstairs to eat. Ji Lingchen was left in the same spot with a face full of lust.
…
In the classroom.
Fang Xiaonuan was holding a large cup of dark red liquid and drinking it.
Liu Siyu asked, “Xiaonuan, what are you drinking?”
Fang Xiaonuan said proudly, “Brown sugar water. My husband purposely made it for before he left.”
Before going to school in the morning, Ji Lingchen took her cup of water away. Then, he looked at the picture on her cup and said, “The kitten looks a little familiar.”
Ji Wen asked, “Uncle, when did you get a cat?”
Ji Lingchen looked at his wife and said, “It looks like the kitten in my arms.”
Fang Xiaonuan replied shyly, “Ugh, why did you call me a kitten again?” Her tone was full of sweetness. It gave Ji Wen a headache.
Ji Wen thought, ‘Showing off your love so early in the morning, that’s enough!’
After arriving at school, Ji Wen told Liu Siyu many stories about his uncle and Fang Xiaonuan.
“Oh my God, Xiaonuan met her true love after marriage?” Liu Siyu said in surprise.
The two looked at Fang Xiaonuan, who was giggling foolishly, and nodded in unison. “Looks like she really met him.”
Liu Siyu sighed. “You’ve been single for so many years, but then you met your true love after marriage. This must be a gift from the heavens!”
Ji Wen said, “When will the heavens give me a gift? Let my uncle and Fang Xiaonuan go somewhere else. Otherwise, I’ll be too sullen at home.”
Liu Siyu said, “You probably don’t deserve a gift. It’s better for you to rely on yourself.”
During class, whenever Fang Xiaonuan heard boring knowledge, her husband’s face would pop up in her mind, and then she would begin to giggle foolishly.
Liu Siyu and Ji Wen looked at each other, then said helplessly, “Though I’m sitting so far away, I can practically see pink thought bubbles popping up above her head. She is giving off the sweet scent of love!”
…
Ji Corporation, CEO’s office.
Jiang Rui, who had been criticized yesterday, brought a new report to the CEO’s office today. He hurriedly handed the report to Ji Lingchen. When Ji Lingchen looked at the data, his heart seemed to jump out of his throat.
Ji Lingchen looked at it carefully. This time, there was finally no problem with the data, but a single glance from him would cause Jiang Rui to feel a ton of pressure.
Ji Lingchen said, “I know what’s been going on with your family. How are you going to deal with it?”
Jiang Rui suddenly raised his head and looked at Ji Lingchen, his face full of shock. He had never thought that Ji Lingchen would find out about his family matters. However, thinking about it, his scandal would have spread throughout the company. He said in a panic, “CEO Ji, I won’t let my family matters affect my work anymore. Please give me another chance!” There were already enough things to worry about at home. He could not lose his job again, or his family would really have no hope at all.
Ji Lingchen took a deep breath. He began to have self-doubt. How heartless was he in the eyes of the employees? His normal questions of concern actually made his subordinates fear him to such an extent. He quickly said, “I don’t want to fire you.”
“I’m prepared to give you a week’s vacation. Can you handle your family matters in this timeframe?”
“CEO, I. . .” Jiang Rui looked at Ji Lingchen pitifully. Vacation? But why did he feel that he was still fired?
