The happiest person about Chang Xingwang's return to normal work hours was Zhou Hongyu, who had lived like a widow for twenty years and was now finally able to completely let go of her responsibilities.
After work, if there's nothing to do at the store, Zhou Hongyu will invite her colleagues out to play, and they must eat out until very late before going home.
Chang Xingwang and his child were left at home staring at each other blankly.
After this happened several times, Chang Meiying complained, "It's not fair! Mom gets to eat delicious food outside all by herself!"
Chang Meiying, who was spoiled and pampered, had had enough of eating in the cafeteria every day!
She's also reached the age where she enjoys home-cooked meals.
Chang Shuying nodded in agreement. She preferred being with her gentle mother to being with her father, who didn't like to talk.
Chang Xingwang paused, then remained silent for a moment before saying, "Why don't you bring us all with you?"
you?
Who brings their family along when they go out with friends?!
Zhou Hongyu shook her head decisively and scolded sternly: "You all better behave yourselves! I had no choice but to take care of you before, but now that your father has time, it's his turn to share the responsibility!"
The instigator is Chang Mei-ying.
"I'd almost forgotten about you if you hadn't caused all this trouble. I was even planning to send you to a boarding school to toughen you up..."
"No, no! I'm not going!" Chang Meiying threw a tantrum when she saw that things were not going well.
Chang Shuying looked down at her fingernails, while Chang Xingwang turned to look out the window.
It's none of our business. If you want to beat someone up, go ahead and beat her up.
Zhou Hongyu's eyes sharpened slightly, and the unruly child immediately became obedient.
Chang Meiying sat up straight, raised her hand obediently and sensibly, and said, "Mom, I'm a good child!"
...
Sometimes silence speaks volumes.
Zhou Hongyu glanced at the other two quiet people and chuckled softly, "I hope you can both listen to me!"
If you're going to play, then play properly. Don't even think about following her around like a burden!
Chang Shuying and Chang Xingwang nodded obediently; they were very well-behaved!
Chang Meiying rolled her eyes at them, thinking, "No loyalty!"

Gao Feng pretended to be stupid and, having been given the hot potato by Old Fu, simply followed orders and severely criticized the gossipy woman.
The assistant reports that Chang Xingwang has gone on strike again!
After his assistant left, he angrily swept the documents aside and sneered, "He's pulled this trick again. It seems Chang Xingwang doesn't know anything else!"
Fortunately, he was prepared.
Chang Xingwang left work just moments before Gao Feng rushed to the lab to keep the rest of the team company while they worked overtime.
Unlike the aloof and arrogant Chu Qi, who was of mediocre talent, Gao Feng was able to take things in stride. Although his abilities could never match Chang Xingwang's, he knew to keep a low profile from the start and adopt a friendly attitude, which immediately won everyone's favor.
Within a few days, his actions were praised by senior leaders such as Professor Fu, as well as researchers in the institute.
Gao Feng's popularity has soared, and it seems like his becoming the next director of the research institute is a foregone conclusion.
Seeing that Chang Xingwang had been quiet these past few days, coming home from get off work on time every day to take care of the child, Gao Feng couldn't help but feel that he had won. He ran up to Song Qingyun to ask for credit.
"Brother, I've taken care of your troubles. As long as I'm here, your nemesis will never be able to turn things around. The day I become the director of the research institute, he'll definitely have to say goodbye to his future!"
Gao Feng patted his chest and declared confidently that he didn't think Chang Xingwang was a threat at all.
Based on his observations over this period, he concluded that Chang Xingwang was a rigid and inflexible scholar who possessed extraordinary abilities but could not utilize them to their fullest potential; he was simply a fool!
