Contemporary college student Ye Zhao stayed up all night working on a thesis and died of exhaustion, transmigrating into the CEO's fiancée and becoming a calculating supporting role.
Well...
Ye Zhao thought that children's thinking was quick and they would forget about it after a while, but to her surprise, the family had just finished eating and were chatting on the sofa when Yuanbao reached out to her and said, "Mom, I want my phone."
Ye Zhao didn't realize what he was going to do for a moment, and subconsciously handed him the phone.
Little Yuanbao didn't answer, but shook his head and said, "Mom, please call Dad for me."
Ye Zhao was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Do you really want Dad to go with you?"
Yuanbao nodded firmly.
"Okay, don't cry if you get rejected."
"Don't cry."
Ye Zhao curled her lips. Without even thinking about it, Chen Du wouldn't arrive until tomorrow, and it was uncertain when he would come. Even when he did arrive, he would be busy with work, so where would he find the time to take Yuanbao to the amusement park?
Besides, if he knew she was going too, Shen Du would definitely try to avoid suspicion.
Yuanbao saw the call had been dialed, picked up the phone, and ran off on his short legs.
Yan Xu smiled and said, "This little brat has quite a few tricks up his sleeve."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xi replied expressionlessly, "What do you think? You've really put me in a difficult position."
Ye Zhao recalled how Yan Xi had cried her eyes out yesterday, and felt guilty, so she didn't dare to speak.
When Shen Du received Yuan Bao's call, he was drinking with He Jie and a few others. He paused for a moment, then took his phone and went outside.
"Hello?"
"dad!"
Yuanbao's clear and energetic voice came from the other end of the phone. Chen Du was slightly taken aback, then said gently, "Hmm? Have you eaten?"
Yuanbao chirped on the other end of the phone, "I just finished eating! I had braised pork!"
Shen Du slightly curled the corners of his lips, about to speak, when he heard Yuanbao ask in a childish voice, "Daddy, I want to go to the amusement park tomorrow."
Since the father and son recognized each other, Yuanbao had never said such things in front of him, nor had he ever made any demands on him.
At first, he was very hostile to Shen Du, and you could say he disliked him very much. After these few interactions, he became much more familiar with Shen Du, but it was just familiarity, not closeness.
On the contrary, he became much closer to him after yesterday. This may be because Yuanbao was very vulnerable yesterday, and Chendu appeared by his side, giving him a sense of dependence. Of course, it may also be due to the innate closeness based on blood ties.
Chen Du didn't reject this feeling; in fact, he felt a little happy because it made him realize that Yuanbao truly saw him as his father, not just a symbol.
“Okay, tomorrow?” Shen Du agreed almost without hesitation.
This was the first time Yuanbao had made a request to him since the father and son had reunited. Chen Du couldn't refuse, nor did he want to.
Little Yuanbao's soft, sweet voice rang out again: "Mommy wants to come too tomorrow, let's go together!"
Chen Du paused for a moment and asked, "Does Mom want to come too?"
Yuanbao obediently replied, "Yes, is that okay, Dad?"
Chen Du hesitated for a moment before answering, then asked after a few seconds of silence, "Have you asked Mom? Should we go together?"
Yuanbao didn't seem to understand why he asked that, but he nodded and replied in a childish voice, "Mmm, Mommy said I should call Daddy myself..."
Chen Du hesitated and didn't speak, but Yuan Bao's voice came again: "Dad has never taken me to an amusement park..."
Upon hearing this, his attitude softened immediately, and he could no longer refuse, saying gently, "Okay, tomorrow... Dad will pick you up tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuanbao on the other end of the phone exclaimed happily, "Great! Thank you, Dad!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Du smiled gently.
When he returned to the private room, He Jie and the others were quite drunk. When they saw him come in, they picked up their glasses and were about to pour him a drink when Chen Du pushed him away and said, "You guys drink first, I have something to do and I'll be leaving first."
He Jie, who was quite drunk, grabbed him and said, "What's the matter that you have to leave now? We're having a great time drinking."
Chen Du pulled his hand away and said, "It's urgent, I have to go."
After saying that, he picked up his coat from the sofa and left without looking back.
As soon as he stepped out of the private room, he picked up his phone and called Yang Xu.
"I have some urgent business to attend to in City B. Please come tomorrow."
Ye Zhao watched as Yuanbao happily returned with the phone, and suddenly had a bad feeling. But the next second, she heard Yuanbao say, "Mom, Dad agreed!"
"He agreed?" Ye Zhao asked back, but she couldn't help but regret it. She thought she should have known better than to agree to the child's request. Now that she had agreed, it would be better not to go.
Little Yuanbao proudly raised his face: "Dad said he'll pick us up tomorrow!"
Yan Xu looked at Ye Zhao's cracked expression, curled his lips, and waved to Yuan Bao.
Little Yuanbao excitedly rushed towards him, and Yan Xu hugged him and patted his head, saying, "Good boy, you not only mess with your dad but also with your mom!"
Ye Zhao: "..."
Yan Xu seemed not to notice her gaze and said to himself, "Uncle will treat you better from now on. You can't let Mom and Dad down like this, okay?"
Ye Zhao: "..."
Yan Xi glanced at Yan Xu and Yuan Bao expressionlessly and said, "Whether he's good or bad, he'll still swindle you."
Ye Zhao suddenly wanted to laugh, but she forced herself to hold it back under the murderous glares of the brother and sister.
...
The next morning, Ye Zhao was still asleep when Yuanbao shook her awake.
"Mommy, Mommy, we're going to the amusement park today."
Early in the morning, Yuanbao was very excited. Before he had even washed up, he couldn't wait to shake Ye Zhao awake.
Ye Zhao was extremely sleepy, but she was helpless with him, so she struggled to get up and took him to wash up.
It wasn't until she finished washing up that her mind was completely clear.
I was just about to change my clothes when I saw a message from Jiang Che.
"Good morning Zhao Zhao."
A smile unconsciously crept onto Ye Zhao's lips.
"good morning."
"I'm taking Yuanbao to the amusement park today."
A few seconds later, Jiang Che replied to the message.
"Seriously, play with him a lot."
Are just the two of you going?
Upon seeing this sentence, Ye Zhao hesitated for a moment before replying, "There's also the depth."
After sending the message, he vaguely felt something was wrong, so he added, "Yuanbao insisted on having him come along, and I couldn't bear to refuse."
After these two messages were sent, it took quite a while for them to reply.
"Okay, if I were here, I could go with you."
Upon seeing this, Ye Zhao slowly breathed a sigh of relief. For some reason, she was worried that Jiang Che might overthink things.
Ye Zhao: "We can do it together next time. You go ahead and do what you need to do."
Jiang Che: "Okay, then remember to think of me."
Ye Zhao: "Okay, I miss you."
Ye Zhao felt that Jiang Che was sometimes like a child, but at other times he was very reliable, and she felt at ease when he was around.
After chatting for a few minutes, Ye Zhao began to change her and Yuanbao's clothes.
