Chapter 98 Dream Talk "With a man like this, what good is there to do? ...

The next day, Wang Ying took the photos to work. During lunch, she took out the photos and showed them to Xu Lili and others.

"Wow, the photos are ready!" Xu Lili was the most excited of everyone.

Tian Yulan rarely takes photos because of the birthmark on her face. This time, Zhao Yunsheng and Gu Xuan took both solo photos of her and a photo of her and Wang Ying together. They all turned out quite well. Tian Yulan held the photo of herself and Wang Ying in her hands and said, "I'll definitely keep it and frame it when I get home."

"I can do it too! Director, your wife is so professional at taking photos!" Xu Lili flipped through the photos one by one, her black eyes almost sparkling with stars.

Wang Ying smiled and said, "Not all of them were taken by my wife. Gu Xuan also took some. He takes good pictures too."

Xu Lili smiled: "All good, all good."

Zhou Qianjin and Luo Wenshu weren't as excited as the other women, but they were also delighted by the photos. Only Wu Haiyang, who hadn't gone when they'd been asked to, felt a bit upset.

"Director, these photos, films and developing photos are quite expensive. How much do you charge? We will give it to you," Zhou Qianjin said.

Wang Ying smiled and said, "How can that be? We're organizing this trip, so how can we charge you for it? This is just a small benefit from me as the director."

"This isn't good. Film and developing photos are really expensive," Luo Wenshu said. "The director usually teaches us a lot, and now he's taking photos for us for free. How embarrassing."

"Just support my work more in the future, you really don't need to give me anything," said Wang Ying.

After hearing what Wang Ying said, the others stopped insisting. If they continued, they would be disrespecting their leader. Wu Haiyang felt even more upset. This was a benefit for them, while he himself gained nothing...

Just at this moment, Luo Wenshu said, "Wu Haiyang, you didn't make it because of something. What a loss! Haha!"

"There's nothing we can do if something happens at home." That's all Wu Haiyang could say.

Zhou Qianjin glanced at Wu Haiyang. He'd noticed long ago that something was off about him, ever since the rumor-mongering incident. He still remembered how Wu Haiyang's attitude toward Wang Ying had changed significantly back when they first met in the group office. He'd noticed it, and he didn't believe the director hadn't noticed. It had been so long since this happened, and he had no idea what Wu Haiyang was thinking. Director Wang hadn't taken it seriously, so why was he, a grown man, still so awkward after all this time?

After lunch, they returned to the workshop together. Wang Ying and Xu Lili walked side by side. Xu Lili asked casually, "Director, Gu Mei's family background is quite good, right?"

"Well, that's great. People like us can't reach it even if we stand on a ladder, let alone tiptoe," said Wang Ying.

"You can tell at first glance," Xu Lili said, "the brother and sister don't seem like children raised by ordinary families." Xu Lili's voice was dejected, and she even sighed.

Wang Ying looked at Xu Lili, remembering her previous behavior, and suspected that Xu Lili had fallen for Gu Xuan. With the current advocacy of freedom of marriage, Wang Ying didn't think Xu Lili was unworthy of Gu Xuan. The problem was that Gu Xuan was currently on a blind date...

"I don't know what kind of partner they will find in the future," Xu Lili added.

Wang Ying saw that Xu Lili was trying to get information out of her, so she didn't hide it and said, "Who knows? When I went to Gu's house yesterday, except for Gu Mei, everyone else in the Gu family was accompanying Gu Xuan on a blind date. She must be a girl from a good family."

When Xu Lili heard what Wang Ying said, she felt jealous. It turned out that everyone was going on blind dates.

Neither of them spoke again. Wang Ying felt that Xu Lili was about to give up. Wang Ying didn't want to get involved in other people's love affairs, unless she met another scumbag, and she couldn't just stand by and watch him die.

In the afternoon, Wang Ying was looking at a report in the office when someone suddenly came and asked Director Xiang to leave.

Director Xiang was gone for over half an hour before returning with a document in his hand. As soon as he returned to the office, without waiting for Wang Ying to ask him, he threw the document in front of Wang Ying and said, "Here, the trial production permit for the new product has been approved."

"Oh, it passed so quickly." Wang Ying picked up the document with a smile.

"I really regret doing this for you. Now the burden has fallen on me. The factory director has asked me to be in charge of this matter." Xiang Huaimin said angrily.

"Hey, you're the director, this is your job." Wang Ying didn't think Xiang Huaimin was as indifferent as he claimed. He wanted to be involved, but he seemed hesitant. He didn't know what Director Xiang had experienced in the past that had shaped his current temper.

"I don't care. You can make your own arrangements. I'm only responsible for reporting to the leadership." Xiang Huaimin waved his hand. "Old Qian and Old Zheng are really interesting. They know you wrote the plan and that you will definitely be in charge of the follow-up matters, but they didn't mention you at all and let me take charge of this matter."

Wang Ying could tell that Director Xiang was speaking up for him. Look, this was their Director Xiang.

"Oh, my personal honor and loss don't matter. As long as I can get things done, that's enough." Wang Ying said indifferently.

Xiang Huaimin glared at Wang Ying fiercely, his tone very rude: "You are the only one who is amazing! You are the only one who has a high level of awareness!"

Director Xiang was really angry. He ignored Wang Ying until the end of the get off work day. He even did math problems in a sideways posture to prevent Wang Ying from seeing his face.

Wang Ying was not angry, and even thought Director Xiang was really cute.

After obtaining the production license, Wang Ying and his R&D team took over the rest of the process. With the experience gained from previous attempts, this time the challenge should be much lower.

Before leaving get off work, Wang Ying called four people from the R&D team to the office.

Several people saw a small blackboard on Wang Ying's desk. This small blackboard was much darker than the one they were used to. It was obviously new and larger. Next to the small blackboard was a whole box of chalk, instead of the pitiful two they had at the beginning.

Written on the blackboard was the following: Mung Bean Cake and Mint Cake Trial Production Plan. Overall Manager: Xiang Huaimin; Coordinator: Wang Ying.

"Team leader, we are going to develop new products again!" Zhou Qianjin was a little excited.

"That's right," Wang Ying said with a smile. "Summer is coming, and our factory should also produce some refreshing cakes for people to choose from. This time we are trial-producing two products: mung bean cake and mint cake."

"I've never eaten it before." Xu Lili said, "Is it delicious?"

"It must be delicious." Luo Wenshu said beside him, "Team Leader, what should we do? Please assign us tasks."

"The early research and development is definitely the responsibility of the four of you," Wang Ying said. "How about you split into two groups, each responsible for one task?"

"Okay!" Xu Lili agreed, "Then how do we divide them into groups?"

"Let's draw lots." Wang Ying said, taking out the prepared slips of paper. "Let's draw lots. One group is red, and one group is blue."

No one had any objections, and the result of the drawing of lots was that Xu Lili and Luo Wenshu were in one group, and Zhou Qianjin and Wu Haiyang were in another group.

"Each group will be assigned a task by drawing lots," Wang Ying said. "You draw blue mint cakes, red mung bean cakes, etc., until everyone in your group draws the same color."

After a few people were caught, Zhou Qianjin and Wu Haiyang were responsible for the mint cakes, and Xu Lili and Luo Wenshu were responsible for the mung bean cakes.

Wang Ying said at this moment: "There is a ready-made recipe for mung bean cake, but not for mint cake."

"No recipe? Not at all? Then what should we do?" Wu Haiyang immediately became anxious.

"There are other prescriptions for reference, try them," said Wang Ying.

"Okay! We can definitely make it!" Zhou Qianjin was full of fighting spirit. Rather than making the one with a ready-made recipe, he would rather make this one without a recipe. Doesn't this show his personal ability?

Meanwhile, Luo Wenshu and Xu Lili were even happier. Wang Ying gave them the mung bean cake recipe. Zhou Qianjin and his friends received recipes for mung bean cake, osmanthus cake, and cloud cake, along with Wang Ying's description of the mint cake's flavor, shape, and texture.

"Everyone, please submit a plan to me by tomorrow night at the latest," Wang Ying said. "You can go back to your original office to write it. I'll be there tomorrow as well. You also need to make your own arrangements for the workshop here."

"Okay, leader." Several people agreed.

"It depends on you when we can enjoy the new products. That's all. Get ready to go off work." Wang Ying said with a smile.

The four of them agreed and left the office. From beginning to end, Director Xiang didn't say a word, didn't even look at them, and was always busy with the problem.

After several people left the office, Xu Lili whispered, "Why is Director Xiang the one in charge? Director Xiang doesn't care about anything..."

"Don't ask, they are leaders," Zhou Qianjin said. "We don't care how the leaders cooperate with each other. We just need to do our job well."

"I'm just asking..."

Wu Haiyang said, "You guys have a ready-made recipe, but we don't even have one, and we don't know how long we'll have to try it!"

"Then I'll switch with you!" Xu Lili said, "You make the mung bean cake, and I'll make the mint cake."

Luo Wenshu also said, "I can also switch with you."

Wu Haiyang felt embarrassed, as if he was the only one complaining, the worst of all. This made him feel even more uncomfortable. Even if others didn't mean it that way, he felt like he was being targeted.

"I'm just saying it, I don't want to change it." Wu Haiyang said embarrassedly.

"Our team leader has been so dedicated to nurturing us, so we should show her some achievements," Zhou Qianjin said. "Just wait and see. She'll definitely review each of the plans we write tomorrow, revise them, and teach us how to do them. Where else can you find such a good leader who'll personally guide her subordinates? And she knows more than anyone else."

"That's right, that's right!" Xu Lili and Luo Wenshu hurriedly echoed.

Wu Haiyang didn't say anything. He felt that no matter what he said, the team members would have something to contradict him. He didn't say anything bad about Wang Ying, so how did he become the public enemy of the whole team?

When it was time to get off work, Director Xiang, still angry, left without saying goodbye to Wang Ying. Wang Ying was not angry either. She couldn't be angry with Director Xiang.

After get off work, Wang Ying saw Zhao Yunsheng coming to pick her up at the factory gate, and Dongbao was with him.

As soon as Dongbao saw Wang Ying, he shouted, "Aunt!"

Wang Ying greeted her colleagues, walked over, and asked Dongbao, "Dongbao, are you here to pick up your aunt from get off work? When did you get here?"

"Dongbao just arrived to pick up his aunt." Dongbao sat in the small rattan chair on the front bar of the bicycle, swinging his little feet. This was Zhao Yunfei's bicycle.

Wang Ying saw that Zhao Yunsheng looked unhappy and guessed that Zhao Yunfei might have had another conflict with her husband.

"Let's go and talk about it when we get home," said Zhao Yunsheng.

After arriving home, Wang Ying carried Dongbao out of the car and entered the main room, where she heard Zhao Yunfei and her husband arguing in Chen Xiuqin's room. Chen Xiuqin was trying to persuade them, but the three voices mixed together and it was unclear what they were arguing about.

Wang Ying and Zhao Yunsheng exchanged a glance, and Zhao Yunsheng said, "Carry Dongbao upstairs first. Don't let the child see his parents quarreling."

Wang Ying carried Dongbao upstairs. Dongbao asked, "Did Mom and Dad have a fight with Grandma?"

"No, they are discussing something." Wang Ying said, "Let's go to my uncle and aunt's room to play."

Wang Ying held Dongbao in her arms and sat at the desk. She took out paper and pen and started drawing with her.

Ten minutes later, Zhao Yun came up.

"Oh, our Dongbao can draw now. What did you draw? Show it to your uncle." Zhao Yunsheng teased Dongbao.

"My aunt taught me how to draw a rabbit," said Dongbao.

"Dongbao is amazing! Draw another one for uncle to see."

The couple played with Dongbao for a while, and then Zhao Yunfei came upstairs. Her eyes were red and her face looked haggard.

Zhao Yunfei said to Dongbao, "Dongbao, how about we stay at my aunt's house today?"

"Okay!" Dongbao responded happily and showed the paper in his hand to Zhao Yunfei, "Mom, auntie taught me how to draw a bunny."

"What a beautiful painting." Zhao Yunfei looked at her daughter and almost shed tears again.

In front of Dongbao, Wang Ying and the others didn't say anything. When Chen Xiuqin called them downstairs to eat, they found that Zhao Yunfei's husband had already left.

After dinner, Chen Xiuqin took Zhao Yunfei and her daughter to make the bed, while Wang Ying and Zhao Yunsheng cleaned the kitchen.

"What's going on between my elder sister and her husband?" Wang Ying asked.

Zhao Yunsheng said angrily, "My eldest sister's sister-in-law is pregnant."

Wang Ying was stunned: "Brother-in-law's?"

"He doesn't admit it! But my eldest sister saw her sister-in-law asking him what to do if she's pregnant," Zhao Yunsheng said. "Since they asked, who else could it be if not his?"

"This... is indeed not necessarily from my eldest brother-in-law. It could also be from my eldest brother-in-law's brother-in-law, but since she asked this, it must be related to my eldest brother-in-law..." Wang Ying said.

"That's indeed possible. The woman herself doesn't know who it belongs to. I'm so angry that I'm confused." Zhao Yunsheng said angrily.

"What does elder sister mean?" Wang Ying asked.

"My eldest sister wanted a divorce, but Dongbao's father disagreed. She said we didn't need a divorce, but she could ask her sister-in-law to have an abortion," Zhao Yunsheng said. "He said it was her brother and sister-in-law's child, and they had no right to order an abortion. In short, he refused to acknowledge it."

"Most men won't admit to this kind of thing unless they are caught in bed. Even if they are caught, they will have a hundred excuses waiting for them," Wang Ying said with disgust.

Zhao Yunsheng looked at Wang Ying and asked, "Yingzi, do you know a man like this?"

"I don't know him, I just heard about him." Wang Ying thought of Du Jianguo in his previous life and felt sick.

"I told my eldest sister I must get a divorce!" Zhao Yunsheng said, "How can I live with a man like that?"

Wang Ying nodded: "I think so too."

"Let's go and persuade her later," said Zhao Yunsheng.

"good."

Wang Ying and Zhao Yunsheng packed up and went to Zhao Yunfei's room. Director Zhao was sitting in a chair, Chen Xiuqin and Zhao Yunfei were sitting by the bed, and Dongbao was already asleep.

They were silent, and Zhao Yunsheng said, "Sister must get a divorce!"

Zhao Yunfei said: "I want to leave."

"Didn't you say that you wouldn't divorce her even if she had an abortion?" Zhao Yunsheng said.

Zhao Yunfei gritted her teeth, "I lied to him. I can't just divorce him like this. I'm going to coax him into beating the piece of flesh out of that woman's belly! No matter whose it is! Once the flesh is gone, I'm going to make a big deal out of this! Then we can divorce, otherwise it'll be too easy for that pair of bastards!"

"You're just messing around!" Director Zhao said. "They won't be the only ones embarrassed by then."

"I didn't do anything wrong!" Zhao Yunfei said it a little loudly, but then she was worried about waking Dongbao up. She looked back at her daughter and lowered her voice, "What shame am I in!"

Chen Xiuqin also disagreed with her making such a fuss. She just said, "I support your divorce, but I don't support you making such a fuss. I'm afraid that both of you will suffer. After all, he is still Dongbao's father."

"I can't swallow this! Dongbao doesn't need such an unethical father!" Zhao Yunfei became angrier the more she thought about it.

"Look at yourself and your children. Don't worry about them. Just get a clean divorce, no matter how messy their family is," said Chen Xiuqin.

"Yunsheng, Yingzi, what are you looking at?" Zhao Yunfei asked them.

Wang Ying felt that if Zhao Yunfei's approach succeeded, it would be satisfying, but her own interests would definitely be harmed.

Wang Ying said, "I think it depends on the elder sister herself. She thinks it's more important to express her disgust or to pursue long-term interests. There's a saying that goes, 'You live with a breath. If you don't let it out, you might suffer for the rest of your life.'"

"Yingzi is absolutely right. I must vent my anger!" Zhao Yunfei interrupted Wang Ying.

Zhao Yunsheng said at this time: "I think you should tell your brother-in-law about this first. He might even ask her to have an abortion. That way, you don't have to do it yourself!"

"My brother-in-law is bewitched by her. He definitely doesn't believe me. Not only my brother-in-law, but the whole family is bewitched by her." Zhao Yunfei said, "My mother-in-law is deaf and blind. She doesn't care about anything." Zhao Yunfei said angrily.

"Then you can be a little cunning and let him see or hear it himself," Zhao Yunsheng said. "Once a crack appears, the seeds of suspicion will grow bigger and bigger. There's no need to worry about him not discovering the truth."

Director Zhao and Chen Xiuqin looked at Wang Ying and his wife, wanting to say something to them, but in the end they didn't open their mouths.

Zhao Yunfei thought about it and said, "Okay, that's it! After all, a marriage can't be divorced in one day. I must make my brother-in-law expose this matter himself! You two are really smart!"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her daughter, Chen Xiuqin had no choice but to say, "Then be careful. Don't push him too hard. It won't do you any good if you push him to a dead end."

"I understand." Zhao Yunfei said.

Wang Ying and Zhao Yunsheng talked with Zhao Yunfei for a while, and it was almost nine o'clock before the couple went upstairs.

After they washed up and lay down, Zhao Yunsheng held Wang Ying in his arms, sighed and said, "Yingzi, your elder sister may have to live at home in the future."

"Just live here, this is her home." Wang Ying said.

Seeing that Wang Ying didn't care, Zhao Yunsheng didn't say anything more, but just hugged Wang Ying tightly.

Wang Ying was disgusted by what happened to Zhao Yunfei's husband. She even dreamed of Du Jianguo at night and cursed him: "Du Jianguo, do you have any shame?"

Zhao Yunsheng was awakened by Wang Ying's scolding. He sat up, turned on the light, and looked at Wang Ying. She was still asleep, but he could see her eyes moving, suggesting she was dreaming. Zhao Yunsheng was puzzled. Why would Yingzi scold Du Jianguo? She even called him shameless. What had Yingzi dreamed? Or had Du Jianguo really done something to Yingzi?
