Chapter 525 Shameless people are invincible in the world
Chi Moqing usually only gave orders without needing to explain them to others. But with his wife, there was never a time when he didn't need to. He held her hand, his eyes full of doting affection, "Because we have to stay at the hospital to protect Grandpa's safety, and secondly, we don't know Madam Chu's true intentions yet, I'm worried about you going. Besides, you're already over six months pregnant, and you might cause trouble if you go, delaying the interview. What do you think, wife?"
Yan Zuozuo thought it was reasonable, but still had a different opinion: "Precisely because we don't know Madam Chu's true intentions, I am even more uneasy about sending someone else."
"Since Lucy came up with the proposal, let Song Yutong and Tong Shili handle it."
Yan Zuozuo was stunned and stared at Chi Moqing with wide eyes. "Why them?" She thought it would be Lucy who went, and Song Yutong and Tong Shili never really got along.
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow and smiled, whispering a few words in her ear. Yan Zuozuo suddenly understood.
Floral design, in the director's office.
"Why me and Director Song? Since Lucy suggested it, wouldn't it be more appropriate for them to go?" Tong Shili was the first to be surprised upon hearing Yan Zuozuo's decision. On the other hand, Song Yutong was also somewhat surprised, but remained calm overall.
"Shili, this task will be assigned to you and Director Song. I originally planned to go with Director Song, but I've been busy lately and can't get away, so I'll have to trouble you to make the trip. Besides, I'm quite pregnant now, and I'm afraid going would only cause trouble." Yan Zuozuo said helplessly, as if she was indispensable.
Tong Shili frowned: "Why not Lucy?" Lucy was the one who proposed the plan.
“Lucy is my assistant, and I have a lot to tell her. The proposal was a joint effort between you two, so I think you should be quite familiar with it.”
Tong Shili strongly disagreed with Yan Zuozuo's statement. However, seeing that she couldn't refute it, she simply remained silent.
Song Yutong raised an eyebrow and said, "I've always been a straightforward person. Deputy Director Song has indeed suffered some grievances while following me."
Tong Shili glared at her and turned her head away.
Yan Zuozuo felt somewhat helpless seeing the situation. They hadn't even set off yet, and the two were already at odds. This collaborative interview was truly worrying.
“So, what Director Song means is…” Yan Zuozuo turned to look at Song Yutong.
"I will certainly obey, but I'm afraid Deputy Director Tong won't be able to bear this humiliation..."
"Just say what you want to say. What's the point of beating around the bush?" Tong Shili said coldly, interrupting Song Yutong. "We can do an interview together, but I have a request. If Director Song can accept it, then everything is negotiable."
Song Yutong shrugged: "It's really difficult for Deputy Director Tong. She actually remembered to make demands of me. Okay, tell me what your demands are, and I will definitely consider them carefully."
Tong Shili smiled coldly: "My requirements are very simple: speak your mind directly, don't beat around the bush, it's too much trouble to listen to."
Upon hearing Tong Shili's words, Song Yutong was clearly displeased. She opened her mouth as if to speak, but ultimately held back, shrugging and saying, "I'll try my best to correct it."
Yan Zuozuo looked at the two of them. Did this mean they had agreed? She breathed a sigh of relief. "In that case, I wish you both the best of luck."
"Wait a minute." Tong Shili spoke again, glancing indifferently at Song Yutong. "Since this proposal was jointly put forward by Director Song and Lucy, I will try my best to follow Director Song's lead. However, disagreements are inevitable, so I ask Director Song to be understanding."
Song Yutong looked at Tong Shili meaningfully, as if she was pondering something, and finally said, "I also need to ask Deputy Director Tong to be understanding. After all, we have different personalities, and we should be tolerant of each other."
Tong Shili looked at Song Yutong thoughtfully, nodded and said, "Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
Yan Zuozuo finally felt relieved; their peaceful resolution saved her a lot of trouble.
"Since you two have agreed, let's go back and pack our things. We'll be leaving the day after tomorrow." Yu Fangfei isn't in S City, so this interview will require us to travel out of town.
Tong Shili and Song Yutong went out, and Yan Zuozuo took out her phone to call Chi Moqing, but the phone rang first. A text message came in, and when she saw the content, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
It was an invitation, sent electronically. She read it over and over again at least three times before finally deciding to call Shang Xiaoguo.
"Guoguo, this is amazing! It's only been a short while since my nephew's 100-day celebration, and you've already had your second child?" Before Shang Xiaoguo could even speak, Yan Zuozuo exclaimed in surprise. Immediately afterwards, the sounds of a baby crying and adults comforting a child could be heard. Without a doubt, the adult in question was Ou Luhan.
"Sister Yan, I'm so sorry. I heard from Third Young Master that you've all been busy lately, so I haven't bothered you. Besides, isn't telling you now a wonderful surprise? Hehe."
What a surprise! What a surprise! This is absolutely a surprise! This is a perfect response to the national two-child policy!
Yan Zuozuo thought about it. Shang Xiaoguo had only given birth to her first child not long ago, and now she was pregnant with her second. Tsk, Young Master Ou is a bit too beastly.
"Congratulations! Has my little nephew been given a name yet?"
"No, we're just waiting for everyone to brainstorm. Sister Yan, you're the smartest, help me think of something." Shang Xiaoguo's voice was a little weak, indicating that she had just given birth.
Yan Zuozuo felt sorry for her suffering again: "Is this a natural birth or a C-section?" She remembered that last time she insisted on a C-section when she was perfectly fine, but the baby was born naturally before she could have the C-section, which made the little girl very happy.
Shang Xiaoguo rolled her eyes: "I said I'd have a C-section, but that bastard Ou Luhan insisted I give birth, it hurt so much..."
Shang Xiaoguo was speaking when her phone was snatched away, followed by Ou Sanshao's voice, "Director Yan, how are you? In this harmonious society, can we talk about something cheerful? Like, the weather is really nice..."
Otherwise, I'll have to sleep on the floor again tonight, which is really painful.
Yan Zuozuo's lips twitched. She glanced out the window, wondering if it wasn't a cloudy day. But considering he had just had another son, she decided to let him off the hook. She asked with a smile, "You'd better take good care of Guoguo. Giving birth is not easy for a woman, so you can't neglect her."
"I told you to talk about something harmonious!" Ou Luhan yelled. Ever since Shang Xiaoguo was discharged from the hospital after giving birth, she couldn't stand staying at the postpartum care center and wanted to move back home. He was very happy, but his happiness didn't last long, because his dear mother-in-law kicked him out to the guest room, saying she was afraid he was worse than an animal.
Good heavens, Young Master Ou is supposed to be a very decent person, is this really good for him?
After listening to his tearful complaint, Yan Zuozuo burst out laughing, "Where is your integrity? If you really had one, the second child wouldn't have come so suddenly, hahaha."
Ou Luhan was speechless for a moment. To avoid further damaging her self-esteem, she quickly said, "Director Yan must be very busy right now, so we won't bother you any longer. Oh, and remember to bring a big red envelope when you come to the full moon celebration, the thick, bulging kind. Bye!"
Before Yan Zuozuo could even speak, Ou Luhan impatiently hung up; she simply had nothing more to say. However, since Shang Xiaoguo had given birth to her second child, she should go and visit her; they hadn't seen each other in a long time.
Just as she was putting on her coat and getting ready to go out, her phone rang. It was Chi Moqing calling. A smile appeared on her lips, and she was in a great mood. "Honey, I really miss you. Why did you call me?"
"We're so in sync! Let me guess, my dear little wife, are you going to the hospital to see Shang Xiaoguo?"
Yan Zuozuo blinked: "No one understands me better than my husband. So, Young Master Ou sent you a wedding invitation too?"
Chi Moqing smiled and said, "Wait for me, let's go together."
……
When Ding Le came out of the charity, she saw Fox coming to pick her up. She was delighted, knowing that Fox still cared about her. As for that wicked woman, Lucy, Fox had no interest in her.
She ran over happily, ready to greet him, but suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Lucy was sitting in his car!
Her heart skipped a beat as she stared at that already beautiful face, now made even more stunning by the light makeup. The fox seemed to be speaking to her, its face showing a rare tenderness.
Passersby couldn't help but stare at them, as if they were a perfect couple, so beautiful that they couldn't help but want to look at them a little longer. Even Ding Le had to admit that the fox and Lucy standing together were a match made in heaven, a perfect couple without any flaws.
She lowered her eyes, a sharp pain shooting through her heart. Such a gentle fox was rarely seen, even when he was with her. He said he'd liked her for many years, and that he only started interacting with others for her sake.
Shit!
In her opinion, he was a complete playboy who couldn't resist beautiful women.
She took a deep breath. Should she be thankful that she hadn't invested too much emotion? But was that really the case? If so, she wouldn't be in so much pain that she could hardly breathe. Thinking this, she sighed softly and turned to leave. She didn't even feel the pain as her long nails dug into her flesh.
Just as she lifted her foot, the fox happened to look in her direction. Their eyes met, and her heart skipped a beat; she quickly looked away.
We can't afford to fall any further; if we do, it will be an abyss of no return!
She quickened her pace, but was stopped after only a few steps. "Ding Le."
"Huh? What a coincidence." She forced a smile, but it looked worse than crying.
"You saw me just now, didn't you? Pretending now is a bit late," the fox said indifferently.
Ding Le paused, then clenched his fist. "So, you came here specifically to see me? What's the matter?"
The fox stared at her intently for a moment before finally speaking, "It wasn't me, it was Lucy who was looking for you."
Hearing the name mentioned by the fox, Ding Le felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart. He bit his lip and asked, "What does she want from me?"
"I didn't ask any more questions, you can go and ask."
"I'm not going, I'm not interested!" she said, continuing to walk forward, but was stopped again by the fox, who looked at her with determined eyes, "Go on!"
That expression, that tone, was so cold it chilled Ding Le to the bone. She stared intently at the fox, as if trying to etch that stubbornness and disgust into her very bones.
After a long silence, she took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll go, but this is the last time!"
After saying that, she shook off the fox's arm and walked straight towards Lucy. Meeting Lucy's smiling face in the car, she pursed her lips and asked, "What is it? Go ahead."
Lucy smiled maliciously: "It seems you really don't like seeing me, but I understand, after all, I really went too far last time."
Chi Guoguo’s provocation!
Lucy's mention of it only fueled Ding Le's anger, "You shameless woman, what exactly are you trying to do!"
