Grandma Fu frowned and thought: "Adopted?"
Fu Tingchen nodded, "Yes, adopted."
Grandma Fu's eyes flashed, and she thought of other possibilities, but in the end she said nothing.
Grandpa Fu on the side sighed slightly and said, "Well, let him think as he pleases. They are old now and probably won't be able to see the distant future."
…
Now that Chen Yao has recovered, she has started to focus on her career.
Usually, it is the system and robot nanny who help her take care of the children, so she can stay in the study and draw continuously, and work more efficiently.
Within a few days, she drew a comic about a trip to K City and sent it to Xu Lan to test the waters.
After reading it, Xu Lan gave her some suggestions for revisions. After that, it was almost time to go through the final review and signing process.
While waiting for the final review results, she was not idle. Whenever she finished drawing a short story, she would send it to Xu Lan.
After the final review, Xu Lan showed her the signed contract and asked her:
[Yaoyao, if this is your first official contract, you'll need to come to the company offline with your ID card. Is that convenient for you?]
【You only need to come here for the first signing. You don’t need to come here for subsequent signings. 】
[This rule was just changed this year. In previous years, the signing process was only done online.]
Offline signing?
Chen Yao narrowed her eyes, thought for a moment and then replied:
[Okay, sure.]
A week later, Chen Yao set out from City S and arrived in City A.
As soon as she left the airport, she took a taxi directly to Xu Lan's company, which was the comics company affiliated with the Fu Group.
This time, she can be said to have returned to her hometown.
Familiar memories began to flood back into her mind. Chen Yao couldn't help but think of Fu Tingchen. They had been separated for over a year now, so he must have forgotten...
Forget it, forget it, don’t think about it.
…
More than half an hour later, Chen Yao arrived at her destination. After getting off the car, she first sent a WeChat message to Xu Lan, and then waited for her downstairs.
Because of the bonus of the [Hidden Card], she didn't need to disguise herself, nor did she have to worry about the awkward situation that would arise if she accidentally met Fu Tingchen.
Besides, it can't be such a coincidence that we meet here, right?
Chen Yao thought the possibility was very low, so she stopped thinking about it and sat quietly on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor waiting for Xu Lan.
However--
One minute later.
She heard the system suddenly say, "Oh my god, host, I think I heard Fu Tingchen's footsteps."
Chen Yao: ...
System: "It's really him, and he's about to come in!"
System: "Wow, he's coming! Look at the door!"
Hearing the voice, Chen Yao clenched her hands and looked towards the door. The man's tall and straight body and exquisite face instantly came into her sight.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Fu Tingchen looked even more robust than a year ago, and his complexion and condition seemed to be even better?
Tsk, I don’t know what delicious food he secretly ate, he looks even younger and healthier.
What Chen Yao didn't know was that Fu Tingchen was afraid that he would age too quickly and be disliked by Chen Yao if they met in the future, so he started to actively work out, build muscle, and maintain his health...
Fu Tingchen felt Chen Yao's scrutiny and glanced at her indifferently before quickly looking away without any change in his expression. It seemed that he did not recognize her.
Chen Yao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this [Hidden Card] was indeed worthy of its reputation. Now, even if Fu Tingchen met her in person, he would not recognize her.
…
Not long after Fu Tingchen went upstairs, Xu Lan arrived and swiped her card to bring Chen Yao upstairs.
Xu Lan looked at Chen Yao, who still had an incredibly graceful figure after giving birth to three babies, and couldn't help but envy her: "Yaoyao, you gave birth to three babies, and your figure has recovered so quickly and so well, right? It's amazing, this little waist is so thin, it's exactly the same as before giving birth."
Chen Yao joked, "That's because I'm tired and thin from taking care of three babies."
Lost weight due to fatigue? Xu Lan couldn't help but take another look. It turned out that people who lost weight due to fatigue only lost weight in the right places, such as waist and legs. Those places that should be plump were not reduced at all. In fact, they were even fuller and more charming than before, making them look very pretty.
Xu Lan thought to herself: I don't know what Chen Yao's previous boyfriend was thinking, how could he be willing to let go of such a beautiful woman? Oh, no, it must have been Chen Yao who kicked him.
Xu Lan thought for a moment and then asked, "By the way, Yaoyao, does the father of your child know that you gave birth to a child?"
Chen Yao: "He doesn't know. I didn't tell him. We're separated, and there's no need to tell him. All three children are mine."
Xu Lan thought about it and changed the subject: "Isn't it troublesome for you to come here? The three babies are still very young, will they make a fuss?"
Chen Yao: "It's okay, I'll be back tomorrow morning. It'll be quick, we'll only be apart for one day. I have my aunt at home to help look after me, so I should be able to handle it."
Xu Lan: "That's good, otherwise I would really feel bad."
Chen Yao: "It's okay, we will follow the regulations and procedures. After all, this is the company's requirement and we can't change it. Fortunately, we only need to come here once."
…
In the general manager's office, Fu Tingchen flipped through the drawings of the missing person in his hand and asked the person opposite him in a calm tone: "Have you signed many new artists recently?"
The general manager replied, "There aren't many new artists lately, only a few this week."
Fu Tingchen nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
The general manager was a little confused. Mr. Fu seemed to be paying a lot of attention to them recently?
…
After Chen Yao and Xu Lan completed the signing process, they received a lot of newcomer gift packs, and then listened to the rules and regulations for about ten minutes before it finally ended.
After finishing, Xu Lan sent her downstairs, made an appointment with her to have dinner together in the evening, and then went back to work.
Chen Yao was waiting downstairs alone for a taxi to arrive. The distance was 2.3 kilometers and it would take about ten minutes to wait.
While waiting, Fu Tingchen cleverly passed by her again.
Chen Yao glanced at his back, and somehow, she suddenly thought of Hanhan and Linlin's chubby backs, and suddenly smiled.
