Chapter 138 Professional Ethics

"Mommy, Mommy~" As soon as I got upstairs, the two little rascals pounced on me. These two guys are really quite sturdy. Sure enough, the children that grandma raises are all chubby. When the two of them pounced on me, I couldn't keep my balance and stumbled backward, falling right into Chu Zhen's arms.

"I'm still a child myself, how come I have two children?" Chu Zhen hugged me from behind, looked at the two children, and whispered in my ear.

"I'm not young anymore, I'm still a child, I'm almost forty."

"But it seems like it hasn't changed at all, it looks exactly like the college student I bumped into back then."

"That must be because of the skincare products Huang Yanyan has given me over the years. Oh no, I think we're out of them at home. I need to ask Yanyan to send over another set. How did I end up knowing such a wealthy man in City A?" I knew Chu Zhen wanted to take credit and say it must be because of love, but I deliberately didn't let him succeed and brought Huang Yanyan into the conversation.

"Honey, I got up really early this morning, do you want to go back to sleep?"

"Okay, I am feeling a bit sleepy~"

I've known what Chu Zhen wants to do for a long time now. Apart from falling asleep with my head on his arm every night, we haven't taken anything further.

With my permission, Chu Zhen immediately carried the two little ones downstairs, and I heard him say to Professor Huang, "Lin Dang and I need to catch up on our sleep; these two little guys are getting in the way."

Professor Huang surprisingly said, "Okay, then you can sleep until you naturally wake up. We'll save lunch for you."

I'm speechless. Chu Zhen is making this known to everyone!

"Wife, I'm here~" Chu Zhen's appearance is really hard to associate with the cold face that others describe. He's practically a handsome goofball.

I patted the empty seat next to me, and he immediately took off his clothes and crawled into bed.

"Dang'er, are you ready?"

"Mmm~" I took the initiative to kiss Chu Zhen's lips, and the two of us kissed more and more deeply. It seemed that all our recent emotions were poured into this long kiss.

"Waaaaah~" The baby's crying interrupted our kiss. We stopped and noticed there was still noise downstairs.

"Has someone arrived?" I asked Chu Zhen.

"You're in the room, I'll go down and check on you." Chu Zhen quickly got dressed, his previous affectionate and goofy demeanor vanishing completely, replaced by an icy expression.

"Mr. Chu, did Miss Lin really have that kind of thing with President Cao?"

"Mr. Chu, it's said in the industry that Mr. Cao and Ms. Lin actually knew each other long ago. The reason they sued Mr. Cao was because they couldn't agree on the price. Is that true?"

"Mr. Chu, how has this incident affected you and Ms. Lin?"

......

Although I didn't go downstairs, I stood at the corner of the stairs, and I could hear all the gossip reporters' questions clearly.

"I want to ask, is paying those expensive property management fees every year just to let some lowlifes disturb my and my family's lives?" Chu Zhen didn't answer their questions, but instead dialed the property management number. Indeed, as a high-end villa area, it's unacceptable for a group of reporters to just walk in. How can residents feel safe about their personal privacy?

"Mr. Chu, could you please answer our questions first?" a reckless reporter asked.

“I am Huang Yanyan, the president of Huang's Group, and also Lin Dang's best friend. First of all, we will not answer any questions. American law has given the fairest judgment, and we must abide by the law. Secondly, your intrusion today has had a very negative impact on my best friend and her family. Your questions are all hearsay. As journalists, I expect you to have the most basic professional ethics. To all the media present today, I will have my lawyer send you lawyer's letters. If you have any further questions, my lawyer is here and can answer all your questions.” After Huang Yanyan finished speaking, the room fell silent. Just then, the property management staff arrived. The reporters, perhaps shocked by Huang Yanyan's words, dispersed one after another.

"When I saw Fang Jing come over this morning, I had a feeling that nothing good would happen, and sure enough, it did. Luckily, I was prepared in advance. Don't worry, just leave it to the Huang Group's legal team. Where's Lin Dang?"

"I told her to rest in the bedroom and not to come down." Chu Zhen must have sensed something when she heard the noise, which is why she didn't let me come downstairs. I immediately ran to the bedroom, crawled under the covers, and casually scrolled through my phone. Since they didn't want me to know, I'd just pretend I didn't know anything.

"Dang~" Huang Yanyan's domineering female CEO demeanor was completely thrown to the back of the world by this drawn-out "Dang," and she was back to being the rebellious young lady who used to eat barbecue with me.

"You're so lucky to be able to sleep at this hour. Chu Zhen spoils you too much~" Yan Yan sat directly on the edge of my bed. This wasn't the first time she'd been in my bedroom. Once, after arguing with Chen Weiqi, she insisted on coming over and squeezing into my bed, even though there were so many rooms in the house. As a result, I ended up sleeping in the guest room with Chu Zhen for several days afterward.

"Of course you should sleep well during your vacation, otherwise you'll be wasting such a good time~" This is the second time I've seen Yan Yan since I returned to China. The first time she picked me up at the airport, and we were silent the whole way.

"Get up! Let's make dessert today. I recently started learning baking, try my hand at it!"

"Really? Miss Huang, oh no, President Huang actually went to learn baking? Which teacher would dare to teach her? Do they have a death wish?" I joked.

"Get up quickly, you're my first customer."

"Why don't we invite Song Ji-hyo over too? She should learn something to win over Jo Jung-woo's stomach, otherwise the two of them will be bickering every day."

"Great idea, let's call her over to help out!"

I called Song Ji-hyo, and she immediately ran out from work after receiving the call.

Three women make a drama, and it really was true. The three of us took over the kitchen. Professor Huang prepared all the necessary materials for us and then handed the kitchen over to us completely.

"Oh no, we've got too much flour. Lin Dang, can you calculate what the milk ratio should be now?"

"Huang Yanyan, I told you to let me do it, let me do it! Now you've let too many people in, haven't you? You go over there, I'll do it~"

"Just get me the ingredients. With your love-struck mind, you're not cut out for making something as fancy as desserts. Have your Zhao Zhengyu buy them for you."

"Tch, you think you're so capable? Let's see if you can actually make anything today!"

"Just you wait! I told you not to touch it, and you poured too much milk again! Song Ji-hyo, you're such a wrecker! I knew I shouldn't have let you come!"

......

It feels so familiar. The love-hate relationship between Huang Yanyan and Song Ji-hyo makes the whole house feel exceptionally warm because of their bickering.
