GBP Chapter 254 "Goodnight, Wife"
Chapter 254 "Goodnight, Wife"
You know, he usually doesn't care about or watch videos from parenting bloggers, let alone videos from couples bloggers.
So, for him, the concept of a "dad" is completely irrelevant, like maple leaf footprints or a kitten.
He Xu said that instead of making him complete this task, it would be better to punish him by making him work overtime until midnight every night for five consecutive working days.
He Xu is really in a bind.
But there was nothing I could do; after all, it was a life-saving act and a debt of gratitude for being mentored.
As his special assistant and confidant, he had no choice but to accept the task.
Fortunately, the Huo family is large and powerful, and he gets along well with his colleagues. In the secretariat, which is closest to him, there are indeed parents.
Then, a strange scene unfolded in the office.
Assistant He, who usually never inquired about private matters, came in and said that anyone with children should come with him.
Everyone: ?
What's wrong? Are the company giving out benefits to those with children? Or... are they going to be "laid off"?
But that doesn't make sense. The group has been thriving in recent years, and salaries have increased significantly. How could they possibly lay off employees?
But considering the widespread layoffs reported in the news recently, people are at a loss again.
That's true. Usually, the top leaders find out about things first, and by the time they do, it's too late.
Unfortunately, as a secretary in a large corporation, the background checks clearly reveal the number of people in their family and their circumstances. Even if they don't come forward voluntarily, He Xu can still find out.
So the group went out anyway.
Feeling both apprehensive and expectant, with extremely complex emotions, I heard He Xu ask something, and instantly...
Parents in the secretariat: "..." That's it?
No, please, Assistant He, the way you just spoke was just as terrifying as a doctor sighing at a diagnosis report and then giving you a pitying look!
Some people said they were already thinking about which company to send their resumes to, and whether the company was currently hiring.
……
"So that's how it is."
At night, after dinner and tidying up, Sweetie, who had gone to bed, was in good spirits and started fiddling with her toys.
Jiang Qin and Su Lejia had a video call and talked about what happened at the old house today.
Upon learning that Jiang Qin had given Huo Sili a chance, Su Lejia's tone went from initial shock and disbelief to becoming much calmer after hearing what Jiang Qin had to say.
However, when I think about what that scumbag once said and did to my best friend, I feel a pang of sadness.
Su Lejia was still somewhat annoyed. "Alright, alright, let's not talk about him anymore. Since that's how things are, let's listen to you, baby. Let's see how he performs. If he doesn't perform well, we'll kick him out."
"You can't fall into the same trap twice," Su Lejia frowned, offering a sincere reminder.
Jiang Qin naturally knew that Su Lejia was genuinely good to her, and hearing these words warmed her heart; she didn't think anything of it.
She replied seriously, "Lele, don't worry, I won't be soft-hearted. I still stand by what I said: men are not a necessity for me."
"That's fine then." Su Lejia was someone who had personally witnessed Jiang Qin's changes over the past three years.
Hearing Jiang Qin say this, he naturally understood that Jiang Qin was not exaggerating, but speaking from the heart.
A person's growth often happens in an instant; one can understand many things in a year, let alone the three years that Qinqin spent pregnant and giving birth to become a mother.
Su Lejia felt at ease again.
The conversation started with Jiang Qin and Huo Sili, and then moved on to matters related to her wedding with Zhou Junxuan.
They said the deposit from the previous hotel had been refunded, and then they said...
"The follow-up to that pinhole camera incident has been revealed in the last two days. The person in charge of the hotel has been fired. Former employees have provided evidence proving that he instructed the camera to be used. He has now been arrested."
Jiang Qin was a little sleepy, so she leaned against the headboard, looking somewhat like she was fishing for attention: "Not bad."
Su Lejia was still very energetic and said a lot more, concluding with—
"The new hotel venue is fine, the staff are very responsible, the wedding time remains the same, and there is a 90% chance that it will go smoothly, as long as the weather in Kyoto is good in the future."
Speaking of this, Jiang Qin chimed in, "It will definitely be great, Lele, don't worry. I checked the records from previous years, and the weather was quite stable back then. It was cold, but not too extreme."
Su Lejia brought this up because she was a little worried, especially since there had been a blizzard just yesterday.
But she liked hearing what her best friend said.
He nodded and hummed in agreement, noticing Jiang Qin's sleepiness, and said no more, "Alright, baby, go to sleep, goodnight and sweet dreams."
Jiang Qin was really sleepy. She nodded and said goodnight before turning off her phone.
Just then, my phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, you could guess who it was just by looking at the location of the caller ID.
After hesitating for two seconds between turning off her phone and answering the call, Jiang Qin finally swiped to answer.
"Hey?"
On the other end, Horst's voice was gentle: "Goodnight, baby."
Jiang Qin: "..."
"I told you to call me by my name."
Huo Sili's voice was still gentle: "Goodnight, my wife."
Jiang Qin: "..." Her name is Wife?
Never mind, I'm too sleepy, my eyelids are starting to droop.
"Good night." Jiang Qin replied with a condescending "Good night," and hung up before the other end could react.
"Mommy, is it time to sleep?" Sweetie asked, coming closer while playing with her doll.
She glanced at the phone she had placed on the bedside table and asked, "Was that call from Daddy?"
Jiang Qin remained silent again, but eventually nodded.
She was so tired that she fell asleep as soon as her head hit the bed, turning off the main light and turning on the bedside lamp.
Sweetie was very good. She put her toy aside, lay down, and said, "Mommy, goodnight."
Exhausted, Jiang Qin said, "...Goodnight, baby."
After saying that, he remembered someone from earlier and fell silent again.
Here, a dad blogger is staying up late sharing parenting knowledge with Fox.
No, do these rich people not sleep?
