Chapter 63 Just Like a Family of Three

I dawdled until noon before getting up, and missed the breakfast that my aunt had prepared, but ended up eating the lunch that she had prepared.

While eating, Xu Qingmin casually said, "Yilin, let's get married."

Song Yilin put down her chopsticks.

"Qingmin, it's not convenient right now. How about we wait until my daughter goes to high school?"

Xu Qingmin knew this was Song Yilin's delaying tactic; she still didn't want to marry him. Helplessly, he nodded and said, "Okay."

"I want to marry you openly and legitimately, not secretly get a marriage certificate. Do you understand what I mean?"

"You didn't have a wedding with Bai Ye?"

"No, we only got the marriage certificate to register the child's household registration. The wedding photos were taken at a photography studio by Bai Ye, who had late-stage stomach cancer."

"I see."

Song Yilin wasn't really looking forward to a wedding; she just didn't want to get married and didn't want to deal with complicated interpersonal relationships.

But since she has decided to stay with Xu Qingmin, she will stay with him for life, and she will postpone marriage as long as possible.

After finishing our meal, we returned to the Jianghai branch.

Although today is not her workday, she still has to do her job.

Upon arrival, Wang Xiasheng went straight to the general manager's office and immediately got up from his seat.

"Mr. Song, you've arrived?"

"Please sit down. Inform all employees to have a meeting in the after-sales workshop."

After saying that, Song Yilin went out.

The Jianghai store has been plagued by Wang Xiasheng lately, and there are hardly any customers at this time.

That's incredibly incompetent.

In less than five minutes, everyone had arrived.

"It's been a while, everyone. Why do you all seem a bit listless? Wang Qianqian, give us a shout-out to cheer us up."

In sales companies, chanting slogans at morning meetings is commonplace, and newcomers to this job are easily overwhelmed.

After Wang Qianqian offered some encouragement, Song Yilin began to speak.

Wang Xiasheng was outside the crowd.

"Mr. Wang, I heard you used to be an excellent technician?"

Wang Xiasheng understood what Song Yilin meant and immediately crossed his legs and sat down on the chair next to her.

"Yes, thank you for remembering, Mr. Song."

"Then Xiao Wang should go back to a technical position and hone his skills gradually."

"I will file for labor arbitration, you just wait."

Go ahead, the fact that they can do that to you means they're not afraid of your arbitration.

"Starting today, Wang Qianqian is officially appointed as the general manager of Jianghai Store. We hope everyone will continue to cooperate with her work as always."

Wang Xiasheng's lackey Zhang Ren and Song Yilin do not intend to handle the matter personally.

Some minor matters were left to Wang Qianqian to handle.

Since you've given her this position, you should also give her the corresponding rights.

The Yishi store directly issued an appointment letter, officially appointing Wang Yide as the general manager of Yishi.

As for Shao Min, she's still heavily pregnant, so her position is being reserved for her. She can come back whenever she wants after giving birth.

After finishing my work at the Jianghai store, I went to have dinner with Wang Qianqian.

Wang Qianqian raised her glass: "Congratulations, President Song, you showed your skills today. I was right about you. Choosing to follow you was the best decision I ever made. But I never expected you to rise to the top so quickly."

"The word 'upper position' is not used very well."

"You could take the position too, why don't you? Are you worried about your daughter?"

"No, it's just that I'm at this age and don't want to get married. It's hard for me to convince myself to get married. The Xu family is also complicated, and I don't want to deal with those complicated interpersonal relationships. I don't want to involve my daughter in those things either. But I won't leave Xu Qingmin. My daughter will get married after she graduates from junior high school, but not now."

"Then Mr. Xu is pitiful. You can't have children anymore. Judging from Mr. Xu's appearance, he doesn't seem to want any other women. He's destined to never have children. The key is that you don't want to marry him."

Song Yilin fell into deep thought after hearing Wang Qianqian's words.

She can have children; she can have them after the IUD is removed.

Now that I'm no longer under Boss Zhou's command, whether or not I have children is no longer important.

However, whether or not to have the child depends on whether Xu Qingmin wants it or not.

"I am not infertile."

Wang Qianqian looked at Song Yilin in surprise: "Didn't you get sterilized?"

"I just got an IUD inserted to fool that slut Zhou Jian and that bastard Wang Xiasheng."

Wang Qianqian gave Song Yilin a thumbs up: "You're amazing, I couldn't have come up with that."

She just happened to have a good doctor.

She was aiming for sterilization; she already had leukemia and never thought about getting married and having children again.

After having dinner with Wang Qianqian, I went straight home.

It's a good opportunity to send my daughter to the film set together.

The daughter character is the female lead's younger self. The female lead is played by Cheng Xiao, a top-tier actress. She is a kind person who happily takes photos with a little girl who looks like her and posts them on Weibo.

After sending the message, she said to Gu Sibei, "Director Gu, where did you find an actress who looks so much like me? You're amazing."

"What do you mean, 'look for her somewhere'? She's my wife's younger brother's daughter."

"Mr. Xu has such a grown daughter. You really can't judge a book by its cover. I'm so glad I didn't pursue him back then."

Unlike female celebrities in the 1990s who would date wealthy men, today's female celebrities earn a lot on their own and only get together with someone they like.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the opening ceremony began. Bai Guanqun didn't have to come today, but he wanted to broaden his horizons, so he brought her along.

She planned to share a room with Bai Guanqun, but the girl didn't want Song Yilin to sleep in the same room, so she had to book another room.

During a break, Song Yilin sent a message to Xu Qingmin to share some of her schedule for the day.

She promised Xu Qingmin that they would get along well, that there would be no secrets between them, and that they would share each other's schedules anytime, anywhere.

That evening, Xu Qingmin, knowing she was staying in the same room, came over directly.

It seems like Xu Qingmin seizes every opportunity to stick close to her.

When Xu Qingmin arrived, they had dinner together. The hotel was almost entirely occupied by Director Gu's film crew.

Xu Qingmin also intended to cultivate a relationship with Bai Guanqun, so Song Yilin specially brought Bai Guanqun to dinner.

But Bai Guanqun saw that Xu Qingmin's eyes were not eyes, and his nose was not a nose.

Xu Qingmin, knowing Bai Guanqun's awkwardness, specifically reminded her: "Guanqun, you're not a child anymore. You should know my status. If we have a meal here, no one in this crew will bully you."

Knowing the gravity of the situation, Bai Guanqun didn't show any displeasure and began to treat Xu Qingmin with a friendly demeanor.

His approachable manner didn't seem like an act at all.

Seeing her daughter's series of reactions, Song Yilin felt that her daughter might be a natural-born actress. Her attitude towards Xu Qingmin was different depending on who was present.

With Xu Qingmin already reprimanding Bai Guanqun, Song Yilin didn't say anything more.

"Qingmin, did you invest in this production?"

“My brother-in-law asks me to invest in every single one of his movies.”

No wonder he can come and go freely on this film set.

After the meal, the three of them took a walk together on the hotel's walking path.

Looking at the reflection, it really looks like a family of three.

Bai Guanqun played around on the side, while she and Xu Qingmin walked quietly.

Even when Bai Guanqun is having a blast, she'll sometimes look back at her mother and the men she doesn't like.
