Hearing the knock, Ding Huaixiao looked up and replied, "Come in."

The next moment, the office door was pushed open, and Lu Wanling peeked in from outside.

When Ding Huaixiao saw that it was Lu Wanling, he smiled and said, "Little Lu is back? Come in and talk."

Lu Wanling quickly went into Ding Huaixiao's office.

Ding Huaixiao looked Lu Wanling up and down and said, "You seem to have gained quite a bit of weight. Haidong must have been giving you plenty of nutrition, right?"

Lu Wanling felt a little embarrassed after being told that.

"Uncle Ding, Haidong is indeed quite nervous, after all, I'm already so old."

Ding Huaixiao smiled and asked with some curiosity, "Where did you give birth to your child later?"

Lu Wanling did not hide anything from Ding Huaixiao: "It was in the provincial capital."

Ding Huaixiao was somewhat surprised: "It's actually in the provincial capital? It seems that the rumors about Feng Haidong making a lot of money are probably true."

Lu Wanling quickly said, "Uncle Ding is not like that. Hai Dong has three cousins ​​in the provincial capital. Hai Dong's three cousins ​​work at the provincial hospital, so they have helped us a lot."

Ding Huaixiao suddenly realized: "Oh, I see. I was wondering why you were going to come back to your in-laws' town and ask your aunt for help. It would be safer to go to the hospital."

Lu Wanling said earnestly, "Uncle Ding, thank you so much, Auntie."

Ding Huaixiao said, "You're welcome. During the time you were away, Haidong also helped us with many projects for the liquor market, and even helped us bring in several wineries."

Lu Wanling quickly said, "That's what he should do; after all, he can't let his work unit lose its mission because of me."

Ding Huaixiao said, "That's right, Haidong not only completed the task, but also exceeded it."

Then, Ding Huaixiao paused for a moment, then said with a serious expression, "Wanling, based on the business that Haidong helped you complete, you would definitely be promoted and take over the position of head of the finance department after you come back. However, there may be some problems now, and it may not be possible for you to take over the position of head of the finance department."

Lu Wanling was well aware that Ding Huaixiao said this because he was worried that if people talked about her having a daughter soon after she became the head of the finance department, Lu Wanling might be punished.

Understanding this, Lu Wanling said earnestly, "Uncle Ding, thank you for keeping the position of finance director, but I really can't take over as finance director right now. I recommend Mei Yaqin to take over as finance director."

Ding Huaixiao smiled and said, "I knew you would say that."

After a brief silence, Ding Huaixiao continued, "Do you know what Mei Yaqin says about you behind your back?"

Lu Wanling was a little surprised: "What did Sister Mei say about me?"

Ding Huaixiao nodded and said, "I didn't mean to stir up trouble between you and Mei Yaqin behind your back, but I heard from others that Mei Yaqin has always regarded you as her rival."

Lu Wanling paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's okay. I didn't intend to compete with her for anything. This experience made me realize that family is more important to me. I no longer want the position of finance director because I'm too busy and don't have time to take care of my family."

Ding Huaixiao stared at Lu Wanling for a while and then agreed: "Alright, since you're giving up, then let Mei Yaqin take over as the head of the finance department."

Lu Wanling said, "Okay, I'll stay in my original position."

Ding Huaixiao said, "Yes, you'll still be in the same position, but you still need to be careful. Once the child's situation is made public, people might still use it as a topic of discussion."

Lu Wanling nodded earnestly and agreed: "I understand, I will pay attention."

Ding Huaixiao continued, "Then you go first, get back to work, and ask Mei Yaqin."

As Lu Wanling was about to leave, Ding Huaixiao reminded her, "Be careful of Mei Yaqin; she's not as trustworthy as she seems."

Lu Wanling responded, "Uncle Ding, don't worry, I will be careful."

After leaving Ding Huaixiao's office, Lu Wanling returned to her own office with Mei Yaqin.

There are now two more people in this office.

They must have all come to take over the accounts that Lu Wanling was originally in charge of during the six months that Lu Wanling was away.

Upon seeing Lu Wanling enter, Mei Yaqin immediately greeted her with a chorus of voices.

"Wanling, you're finally back at work! You have no idea how old I've felt sitting here in this office without you around. I don't even have anything to talk about with those two young girls." Zhang

Two young female colleagues in the office also greeted Lu Wanling.

Lu Wanling greeted Mei Yaqin and her two new colleagues with a smile, as if she were no different from before.

After exchanging greetings, Lu Wanling quietly said to Mei Yaqin, "I just heard from General Manager Ding that you're taking over as the head of the finance department."

Upon hearing this, Mei Yaqin's face instantly lit up with joy.

But she suppressed her joy and asked in a low, serious voice, "Really? Wanling, don't joke like this with your older sister as soon as you get back."

Lu Wanling said, "It should be true. After the old section chief retires, the only one qualified to succeed him is Sister Mei."

Mei Yaqin tried her best to hide it, but the smile on her lips began to falter.

Lu Wanling continued, "Sister Mei, you must take good care of us from now on."

Mei Yaqin said, "Oh dear, there hasn't been any official notification yet. Wanling, don't talk nonsense. Maybe you'll have a chance after you come back."

Lu Wanling said, "I'm too busy. Hai Dong has to travel between the provincial capital and home, and my son needs to be picked up and dropped off at school. If I become the head of the finance department, what will happen to my children?"

This time, Lu Wanling didn't deliberately lower her voice, so the two young accountants in the office heard her.

Mei Yaqin said with some helplessness, "It's true. Your husband Haidong is now traveling between the provincial capital and home, so he really doesn't have much time to take care of the family. The burden of taking care of the family can only fall on your shoulders."

Lu Wanling said, "So, I'll give up the position of finance director and obediently follow Sister Mei."

Mei Yaqin said, "Oh dear, how could my sister and I have any superiors or subordinates?"

Lu Wanling smiled and said, "That won't do. At work, we still need to respect you, our senior sister, as the head of the finance department."

When Mei Yaqin heard Lu Wanling address her as "Head of Finance", she finally couldn't help but smile.

Meanwhile, two young women in the office congratulated Mei Yaqin.

Mei Yaqin quickly said, "No, don't rush to congratulate us. There hasn't been an official announcement yet. Let's wait for the official announcement, and then we can all go and celebrate together."

The two young girls readily agreed.

Mei Yaqin looked at Lu Wanling and said, "Wanling, let's go to your family's restaurant in Haidong."

Lu Wanling agreed, saying, "No problem, I'll have Haidong make the arrangements for Sister Mei."

As a result, the atmosphere at Lu Wanling's workplace remained very harmonious.
