Liao Nanxing returned to the school, parked his car, and walked towards the main conference room.
On the way, I overheard students nearby discussing, "My God! It's so shameless to knowingly cheat on someone and then pretend to be cheating!"
"Exactly, she always acts all high and mighty, looking down on everyone, but she's actually such a shameless woman. Disgusting."
"However, I really admire the original wife in the video. Instead of confronting the mistress, she dealt with the scumbag first. That's really powerful."
"It's a pity I don't know who it is. If I did, I would definitely be a fan of hers."
"If we knew who she was, that auntie would definitely go viral online with that video of her beating up that scumbag! But I'm really curious, who is that scumbag? Doesn't his voice sound familiar? Could he be from our school?"
Liao Nanxing lowered his head even further and walked even faster.
When I arrived at the conference room, the meeting had already begun.
Gu Yaogang finished reading his self-criticism.
Liao Nanxing had just tiptoed to his seat when he was called upon to stand up.
When the principal asked him if he knew about Su Mu's lifestyle issues, he didn't dare to answer and could only say that he rarely interacted with Su Mu outside of work.
The principal then stopped asking him anything else.
Afterwards, the school issued its decision on the matter.
Su Mu was dismissed due to serious issues with his lifestyle, and he also received a demerit.
On the contrary, Gu Yao, the instigator, only wrote a self-criticism, and the matter was over.
Liao Nanxing was seething with hatred, but he couldn't lash out. After all, if he pursued this matter any further, he might expose himself.
After the meeting, just as Liao Nanxing was thinking about arranging a new job for Su Mu, Xu Xiuzhen called.
He quickly found a secluded spot and pressed the answer button.
"Nanxing, has Su Mu's work been affected by this?"
Liao Nanxing didn't hide anything and directly told Su Mu about being expelled.
"That's perfect, then we won't let Mumu go out to work. The baby is due soon, so it'll be good for her to stay home and take care of the baby. A home needs someone to manage it carefully." The old lady's voice was a little excited.
"But she's not the kind of person who can stay at home quietly."
He knew Su Mu too well. Don't let her young age fool you; she's got a lot on her mind and ideas.
It's practically impossible to get her to give up her career and become a housewife like Zhou Chunhua.
He thought that if all else failed, he could find another place and get a quiet job. A nine-to-five job would allow him time to spend with his child and keep her from being too fussy.
Just as I was about to tell the old lady my thoughts, I heard her give a cold laugh.
"Why is she restless? It's because she has a job and a salary, and she doesn't rely on others for food! Once she loses her job and income, and has to ask you for money to make a living, how can she be restless?"
Listen to your mother. Anyway, losing her job has nothing to do with you, so she can't blame you. If all else fails, comfort her and tell her you'll find her another job.
Anyway, she's almost due, so just say you'll arrange something for her after she's finished breastfeeding. Just keep putting it off. This woman develops an emotional attachment to her child, and naturally, she won't be able to work anymore.
Liao Nanxing remained silent.
On the other end of the phone, the old lady repeatedly urged, "You must listen to your mother on this matter. I won't harm you!"
Okay. I understand.
After saying that, Liao Nanxing hung up the phone.
As for Su Mu's job, the old lady was right about one thing: she was about to give birth, so it was indeed difficult to arrange work for her.
If she still wants to work after the baby is born, we can use our connections to arrange a less demanding job for her.
...
Over here, Xu Xiuzhen, who had just hung up the phone, happily hummed a little tune.
"The old lady is such a model mother-in-law. It's rare to see someone who dotes on her daughter-in-law so much," Aunt Liu, who was cutting fruit nearby, said curiously.
Xu Xiuzhen picked up a piece of cantaloupe, put it in her mouth, and chewed it with relish.
When I'm in a good mood, the fruit tastes much sweeter than usual.
"Feel sorry for her? I'm not that kind. The only person I'll ever truly care about in this life is my son!"
Aunt Liu looked completely bewildered. Wasn't it said that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law shouldn't fight?
how……
Sigh! If any family has a little old lady like that, they'll never have a moment's peace.
Miss Su is quite pitiful; how did she end up with such a troublesome mother-in-law like that old lady?
Zhou Chunhua stared in disbelief at the announcement issued by the school.
Su Mu's proud job... is gone just like that!
Are you happy?
Gu Yao's voice suddenly rang out.
Coming to her senses, Zhou Chunhua asked in confusion, "Why didn't Liao Nanxing help her?"
"Liao Nanxing? He always puts himself first. If he dares to speak up for Su Mu in this matter, the pressure from public opinion might fall on him. He would never allow anything to have even the slightest negative impact on him."
Zhou Chunhua nodded awkwardly.
It took me over twenty years to see clearly the person others could see in a few glances.
"You still haven't said whether you're happy or not?" Gu Yao asked.
Zhou Chunhua smiled and said, "I'm happy. But I feel really guilty about making you write a self-criticism."
"Right! That makes things easy. When are you going to make up for the dinner you owe me?"
Zhou Chunhua then remembered that she still owed Gu Yao two meals.
"When are you free?" she asked.
Gu Yao, who was standing in front of the bookshelf, turned around and said, "Let's do it today! We can make it at home."
Zhou Chunhua said gratefully, "Okay."
When it was time to leave work, she packed her things and was about to leave when Gu Yao suddenly put a stack of books in front of her.
