Chapter 176 Contacting Xiaoling



But after a series of calls without any news, she couldn't wait any longer. She called Aunt Wu to look for them in the neighborhood, and just as the two were about to go out, they received a call from Ye Lichuan.

"Has it been found?"

"Found it." Ye Lichuan stated the exact location and Gu Xiaotian's attitude.

Gu Anran finally felt relieved, and Aunt Wu next to her also breathed a sigh of relief. She helped Gu Anran sit on the sofa, and only then did Gu Anran realize that her back was soaked with sweat.

Because of her earlier tension, she forgot about the pain. Now that she relaxed, the pain became more pronounced, and she couldn't bear it any longer. She called a doctor she knew before asking Aunt Wu to buy her some medicine.

Aunt Wu brought her the porridge she had cooked. After taking her medicine, drinking the porridge, and resting for a while, she felt better.

Time flies, and two hours have passed since Xiaotian rushed out of the house. She called Ye Lichuan to find out what was going on and became anxious after learning that Xiaotian hadn't said a word for two hours.

It's all her fault. If she had explained things properly to Ye Lichuan, they wouldn't have argued. And Xiao Tian saw it too. What am I going to do now?

"Does Xiaotian have any friends? We could ask them to help persuade him."

Gu Anran thought Aunt Wu's method was good, but since coming to Australia, she had only been doing experiments and going to the library, and hadn't made any friends. She lowered her head and pondered, and suddenly Xiao Mu and Xiao Ling flashed through her mind.

Xiao Mu is still young, so it seems we can only look for Xiao Ling. Although she is a few months younger than Xiao Tian, ​​she is still the same age.

She immediately contacted Xiaoling, who was at work at the time. When she saw that it was her calling, her eyes crinkled into crescent moons with joy.

"Hello, Auntie."

"Xiaoling, I need your help with something." She explained what had happened in one breath and then asked for a solution.

"Auntie, Xiaotian's bad mood is only temporary. Just go along with him and let him get through this period."

Gu Anran was worried that Gu Xiaotian would get stuck on things like she did, but Xiaoling still thought this method was the best.

Considering that the two children spent some time alone together, Xiaoling should understand her son well. Furthermore, since they are about the same age, their thoughts must be similar.

Having figured things out, Gu Anran felt relieved and asked her about her recent life. Because she had taken on several design projects, she had been so busy that she hadn't had time to call her secretary.

How is your maternal grandmother's health lately?

Xiaoling felt a little sad when she mentioned her grandmother. Her grandmother was getting old, and it was normal for her to have difficulty walking and her eyesight to be failing. Her grandmother was getting older every day, and she had not yet been able to take care of her.

"Tell me anytime if you have any problems at home."

Xiao Ling agreed, but in her heart she didn't want to trouble her anymore.

After confirming that Xiaoling was doing well and had learned something, she changed the subject to Xiaotian. She could clearly feel Xiaoling's joy when Xiaotian was mentioned.

"Xiao Tian is currently deciding whether to stay in Australia to study, and he spends most of his time in the library and in the lab."

She carefully recalled what Xiaotian did every day and how he was doing, and then told Xiaoling.

Xiaoling was disappointed to hear that Xiaotian might be studying abroad, but she cheered herself up and told herself that as long as she worked hard, she would also be able to study in Australia.

After chatting with Xiaoling about Xiaotian for a long time, she hung up the phone. Then she sent a message to Ye Lichuan, telling him to go along with Xiaotian and just make sure he was alright.

Ye Lichuan replied to the message as soon as it was sent, along with a photo. Looking at her son, who was studying diligently with his head down, she felt that not disturbing him in his pursuit of knowledge was the right choice.

"If you have something to do at the company, you can leave now."

"It's alright, I specifically asked for the day off for you."

Gu Anran looked at her phone and found it somewhat amusing. The two of them had argued fiercely when they met, but they became calm and peaceful when they were separated by a screen.

The two discussed the issue of their child's education. Xiaotian is a very easy child to care for, but he doesn't easily reveal his inner thoughts. Sometimes, when they are both busy, there is a lack of communication.

Ultimately, both of them felt that children's thoughts were unpredictable, so they decided to let them grow up freely and just let them know that no matter what happened, their parents would always be there for them.

Ye Lichuan turned off his phone, got up, and walked out of the reading room. Gu Xiaotian paused in his page-turning, thinking he was leaving. Feeling frustrated, he was about to leave when he saw Ye Lichuan walk in with several economics books in his hand, sit down next to him, and start reading.

After looking at it for a while, he decided to remain silent, so the two of them spent the afternoon reading books in silence in the library.

Back in China, Xiaoling looked at the call log on her phone, switched to the recording function, opened the recording of the conversation about Gu Xiaotian, and listened to it again. A joyful smile appeared on her face.

She hadn't been in touch with Xiaotian for a long time, so it was wonderful to know how he was doing!

She put away her phone and walked out of the lounge. After this period of learning and accumulation, she could complete her work well without the help of a secretary. Now she was planning to take it a step further and develop in the field of design.

"You like design? Go through these magazines and watch all the fashion shows and runway shows from major brands in recent years. First, establish a basic understanding of fashion." The secretary was also very happy to hear that she liked design.

YR's main focus is design, so it would be great if they could train a designer. "This is today's task. Take a look at it when you have some free time after you finish it." Xiaoling took the task, glanced at it, and then got to work.

After finishing her work, she spent some more time on the computer. When a colleague suggested getting milk tea, she immediately stepped forward and took on the task.

From never having touched a computer before to now being able to use it to solve work problems, from making mistakes on basic tasks to now being flawless, all of this is inseparable from the help of her colleagues. Now it's only right that she treats everyone to milk tea.

After the milk tea was bought, everyone tacitly transferred money to her. In their eyes, Xiaoling was the younger sister, and how could the older brothers and sisters let their younger sister pay for it?

"If Xiaoling invited you this time, you'll have to find someone else next time."

"Okay, next week's routine weekly meeting, whoever gets scolded has to pay the price."

Qian Xiaoling was deeply moved when she saw the picture on her phone. After finishing her milk tea, she started flipping through magazines and taking notes on related information in her notebook. She didn't get home until she finished get off work in the evening.

Before going to bed, she reviewed what she had learned that day to consolidate her knowledge. Throughout the day, in addition to completing her regular work, she had been constantly studying and her schedule was packed.

The father and son, who had spent the afternoon reading at the library, dared to go home before dark. On the way, Xiao Tian touched his stomach. He had angrily left the house without eating lunch and was now starving.

"Gurgle." His stomach growled uncontrollably, and he awkwardly turned his head away, avoiding his father's gaze.
