He knew how much hard work and sweat Ayao had put in to be a good class monitor. He couldn't bear to persuade her to stop working.

But to his surprise, his lover was even more carefree than he had imagined.

Yu Yao smiled and said, "Are you stupid? I do love my job, but I cherish my health even more. Since I can only choose between work and health, of course I'll choose health."

As she said this, she touched her belly and smiled gently, "Besides, I'm not alone anymore. I have another family member now, and I need to take good care of myself for her sake."

"Are you willing to part with it? Don't you think it's a pity?"

"It's definitely a bit of a pity, but it's not unacceptable. Besides, I've achieved all the goals I had in finding this job. Now that the new workshop is on track and Aunt Liu and Xueying are capable of handling things on their own, I can resign with peace of mind."

Having worked for so long, she has learned almost all the theory about building a team, managing subordinates, and operating and selling products; what she lacks is practical experience.

There's not much you can learn if you stay in the factory. Once you're self-employed in a few years, you can start learning.

As for taking leave, Yu Yao didn't consider it.

She can't just occupy a position without doing her job. The position of foreman is of paramount importance to the new workshop. If she goes to recuperate, who knows how much time it will take up? It's better to give up.

Yu Yao cupped his face and smoothed his furrowed brows. "My Commander Lu, aren't you worried now? Your face is all scrunched up like a bitter gourd. Wrinkles make you look old. You're already older than me, what will you do in the future?"

Lu Ze: "??"

Is he really that much older?
