Chapter 861 Did Qin Ce Agree?
Before she met Qin Ce, all she wanted was her own house, a car, and a stable job.
If you have the means, save some more money. As long as your family members are healthy and free from illness or disaster, that will be enough.
Even after getting to know Qin Ce, Qiao Xing still thought the same way.
She also knew that Qin Ce would make her live this kind of life.
But reality was never as wonderful as she imagined.
Qin Ce's identity meant that they would never be like ordinary people who only needed to take care of their daily meals.
Qiao Xing didn't want his child to go to school and, when people asked what his parents did, only say, "My dad is a CEO and my mom is a CEO's wife who only spends my dad's money."
Qiao Xing said, "I'm telling you all this because I really don't want to give up this career. But don't worry, I won't be like before, only thinking about my own ideas. If you really think I'm not suitable to go to the company right now, then I'll listen to you and go after a while."
Qin Ce kissed her forehead and patted her back. "No one is forcing you to give up your career. You can do whatever you want."
Qiao Xing always felt exceptionally safe in Qin Ce's arms and would fall asleep in no time.
She didn't see that after she fell asleep, Qin Ce smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth.
He hadn't expected Qiao Xing to interpret his words this way.
Even if Qiao Xing hadn't brought that meal, Qin Ce never intended to keep her locked up at home forever.
Although he was angry that she didn't take her health seriously, he knew he couldn't control Qiao Xing.
He didn't want to control her all the time, as women are very likely to experience depression or anxiety after becoming pregnant.
Although Qiao Xing doesn't have to face any problems like her husband cheating or relationship conflicts.
But emotional issues are always the most sensitive, and Qin Ce didn't want her to let herself get mentally drained over such a trivial matter.
He didn't want her to lose her freedom to be herself while becoming a mother.
Therefore, Qin Ce would not keep Qiao Xing at home for too long, thinking that he would agree to let her go in two more days.
But Qiao Xing was anxious, and Qin Ce knew that she wanted to soften his heart. So Qin Ce thought of teasing her on purpose. If he wanted her to compromise, just bringing her food wouldn't be enough. Besides, her purpose was too obvious. Their relationship wasn't a transaction. She didn't need to give anything in order to get anything in return from him.
A little coaxing or a kiss, and Qin Ce would be completely willing to compromise.
However, Qiao Xing didn't get Qin Ce's point at all; instead, his thoughts veered off to places Qin Ce hadn't even considered.
Why.
They say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years, and it's absolutely true.
The next day, when Qiao Xing woke up, Qin Ce had already gone to the company.
After talking to Qin Ce yesterday, Qiao Xing was no longer in a hurry to go to the company.
She knew Qin Ce wouldn't keep her locked up at home forever. It had only been two days since that incident, and she was already insisting on going to the company. Qin Ce definitely wouldn't agree.
So Qiao Xing had already thought it through. She was going to the hospital for a check-up in a few days, and she would talk to Qin Ce about it after the check-up.
It's not that she absolutely has to go to the company, it's just that this project really can't do without her right now.
In a few days, the official dubbing will begin again, and she is in charge of the script, so she has to be there all the time and make timely corrections when problems arise.
After finishing all that, it will be almost time for the closed beta test. Once the closed beta test is passed, she can stay home and focus on her pregnancy.
By then, even if Qin Ce wanted her to go to the company, Qiao Xing probably wouldn't want to.
Qiao Xing had planned everything in her mind and was prepared not to go to the company.
Who knew that Xing Jiu would arrive so soon after?
"Madam, I've come to pick you up for work."
Qiao Xing was stunned. The news came too suddenly, and she was a little caught off guard.
After a few seconds, Qiao Xing asked with some delight, "Qin Ce agreed?"
Xing Jiu nodded, "Yes."
But he quickly added, "But President Qin said he would give you a maximum of one month. Regardless of whether the project ends or not, you must stay home and rest during your pregnancy. Moreover, President Qin also said that I must pick you up before six o'clock every day."
Sure enough, even if Qin Ce agreed, he wouldn't just let her go to the company so easily.
Not only were her working hours shortened, but she was also given a deadline.
However, for Qiao Xing, a month was more than enough time.
The work she has on hand will take at most half a month. As long as there are no problems with the subsequent dubbing, the internal testing period will be shortened. Once the internal testing is successful, she can confidently hand over all other work to Shen Boyan and Tao Yang.
Although Qin Ce maintained a firm stance throughout, he eventually agreed.
This was an unexpected surprise for Qiao Xing.
Before going to the company, Qiao Xing took out her phone and sent Qin Ce a lively, bouncy emoji on WeChat.
And it was followed by a sentence:
"Thank you, honey!"
Qin Ce was sitting in his office reading documents when his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Qiao Xing.
When Qin Ce saw that meme, he could already imagine how happy she would be.
Qin Ce smiled helplessly to himself.
She clearly couldn't let go of that job, but in order to consider his feelings, she had to pretend to be indifferent.
Qin Ce knew that if he let Qiao Xing stay at home today, she would definitely feel disappointed, but she wouldn't show it.
Women are indeed good at saying one thing and meaning another.
Han Yan happened to be in Qin Ce's office as well. When he saw Qin Ce holding his phone with a barely perceptible smile on his lips, he knew that Qin Ce must be chatting with Qiao Xing.
Han Yan asked curiously, "Did you agree to let your wife go to the company?"
Qin Ce glanced at him. "What's the problem?"
"Oh my, why are you suddenly being so generous? Aren't you worried that guy surnamed Chen is after your wife anymore?" Han Yan asked with an incredulous expression.
Qin Ce glanced at him speechlessly and said calmly, "I'm not that petty."
Han Yan scoffed, "You're not petty? If you count all the people in the capital and Chongqing, you won't find anyone more petty than you when it comes to relationships. You're just afraid that people will find out you're married and still jealous of your wife because of another man. You'll lose face if word gets out. What are you pretending for!"
Han Yan's mouth, whenever it comes to Qin Ce's marriage, is full of nothing but insults.
Qin Ce let out a soft breath, pretending not to hear Han Yan's words, and continued to flip through the documents on the table, too lazy to pay any attention to him.
There's not much to say to someone who's single and unmarried.
Qiao Xing's sudden return to the company startled everyone.
Tao Yang joked, "I thought you weren't coming, and I was planning to split your shares with Miao Miao!"
Sun Miao patted Tao Yang on the shoulder, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not as bad as you!"
After she finished speaking, she gave Qiao Xing a big hug, "I missed you so much!"
