Chapter 47 The Female Supporting Character's Mother—The Disoriented President Wen
For half a month, Yao Yao chatted with Wen Minzhao on WeChat every day. Even if he didn't reply sometimes, Yao Yao was not discouraged and continued to start conversations in the same tone. There was plenty of time, and she wasn't in a hurry.
Wen Minzhao seemed to have gotten used to Shu Yao's messages, perhaps without even realizing it himself, he was checking his phone much more frequently.
He used to rarely pay attention to his phone, only checking it when he heard a call or message notification. Now, however, he checks it even when there's no activity, to see if he's missed any messages.
The Qi family cousins were witnesses to this girl pursuing the boy. Qi Yueyue would ask Yaoyao about her progress every day and relentlessly share various techniques for pursuing someone with her.
Qi Haotian is even more impressive now. No matter how busy he is with work, he never forgets to get updates from his cousin about the big boss being pursued. After all, he's practically a matchmaker, and it's related to his salary! It's extremely important.
The funniest thing is that now when he sees President Wen at the company, he's no longer intimidated. He just stares longingly at President Wen's back, as if he's about to receive a huge bonus.
On Sunday, Qi Yueyue finally got away from working overtime, and the first thing she did was to have dinner with her best friend Yaoyao to reward herself for her hard work over the past few days!
It was Qi Yueyue's favorite hot pot dinner. At first, Qi Yueyue didn't care about gossip anymore and just wanted to eat!
After satisfying her hunger, Qi Yueyue finally let out a long sigh and exclaimed, "This lousy job is too torturous! I'm going to kick it away sooner or later!"
Yao Yao sipped her favorite corn soup and said with a smile, "Just bear with it a little longer. Wait until your goddaughter grows up and can support you before you kick her."
Qi Yueyue got into the act, rolled her eyes, spread her hands, and wailed softly, "Yao! You're too cruel! My goddaughter is still in your belly!"
Yao Yao laughed out loud: "Alright, alright, don't be discouraged. Otherwise, you can just go home and live off your parents like me. Your aunt and uncle's business is so good."
Qi Yueyue's parents own a restaurant with a great reputation. During the peak tourist season in Jiangcheng, their restaurant is always packed with customers.
"No, no, no, if I rely on my parents, I'll be pressured to get married. I'd rather just accept the torment of work!" Qi Yueyue shook her head repeatedly, her attitude very firm.
Qi Yueyue was probably spurred on by going back to live off her parents; she suddenly perked up, and her gossip-loving nature was reignited: "By the way, how are things going between you and President Wen?"
Yao Yao: "As usual, I flirt with him on WeChat every day, but he basically doesn't respond to the flirting and only answers some serious questions."
Qi Yueyue joked, "Now that President Wen is so hard to win over, once you get him, Yaoyao, you absolutely have to make him kneel on a washboard!"
Yao Yao teased, "You really dare to think that way!"
Qi Yueyue raised her small face and said arrogantly, "Of course I dare to think about it, but I don't dare to show it in front of the person in question, hahaha..."
She remained silent.
Qi Yueyue offered another suggestion: "You two can't just keep chatting online. I think it'll be more effective if you meet in person and flirt face-to-face!"
Yao Yao nodded: "I think so too, so I plan to have Wen Minzhao accompany me to my prenatal checkup tomorrow."
Qi Yueyue: "...Um, President Wen agreed?"
Yao Yao calmly shook her head: "No, I haven't told him yet."
Qi Yueyue: "Then how can you be so sure that President Wen will go with you tomorrow?"
Yao Yao: "Tomorrow is Monday, and my parents don't have time. To put their minds at ease, I told them that you're going with me. If Wen Minzhao can't go because of something, I'll go by myself. Anyway, I can walk around very easily now."
Qi Yueyue nodded in agreement. Saying it might not guarantee success, but not saying it would definitely mean no chance. She hadn't expected her sister to be so aggressive in pursuing him.
"I shouldn't have given the car to that scumbag Zhao Kang in the first place, otherwise you could have driven to pick up President Wen, hahaha, that scene would have been hilarious!" Qi Yueyue was getting more and more excited as she talked, her mind filled with all sorts of imagining things.
When Yaoyao heard this, she was also a little annoyed. There is some truth to the saying that pregnancy makes you stupid for three years. When she was writing the divorce agreement, she only thought about the house and the company and completely forgot about the car. Otherwise, she would definitely have gotten the car back!
"Yeah, how could we have forgotten about the car back then!"
Qi Yueyue comforted her, "Actually, it's fine. The car is probably all dirty. That woman must have ridden in it many times. It would be disgusting to keep it."
Yao Yao expressed her agreement, and estimated that she would choose to sell it after she got it.
Qi Yueyue: "By the way, has the house been sold? It seems that housing prices in Jiangcheng have gone up again recently."
Yao Yao: "It should be soon. The location there is good. Recently, the agent brought several groups of people to see it. Now it should be in the negotiation stage. In the end, it should be a deal with whoever offers the right price."
Qi Yueyue counted on her fingers, muttered a few words to herself, and looked at Yaoyao with sparkling eyes, saying, "This is a new house for you. Based on the current house prices, after deducting the mortgage and down payment, you can still make a profit."
Yao Yao: "Yes, we can still make a little money."
The two chatted and laughed for a long time. After dinner, the two sisters went shopping together, and Yaoyao picked out a lot of beautiful maternity clothes for herself.
Yao Yao knew she was carrying a girl, so she told Qi Yueyue that she had dreamt of a baby girl, and Qi Yueyue believed her without question. The two then went to a baby store and bought a lot of toys suitable for girls.
When Yaoyao got home, it was already five o'clock, and Shu Jianghai and Wang Zhi had not yet returned.
Although she couldn't cook, she could still make simple porridge. Yao Yao first went to the bathroom to wash her hands and face, and only after she was all ready did she go to the kitchen to rinse the rice and cook the porridge.
Yao Yao's pregnancy symptoms were not severe this time. She only reacted more strongly when she smelled unpleasant odors. Otherwise, she could eat and drink normally.
Yao Yao didn't text Wen Minzhao all day. Firstly, she wanted to take a break. Secondly, she was having a great time chatting with her girlfriends and didn't want to deal with this cold man for the time being.
Wen Minzhao, on the other hand, was somewhat anxious, and his phone was unusually quiet.
During the meeting in the conference room in the morning, because all the phones were on silent, Wen Minzhao, who was sitting in the main seat, would frequently check his phone, making the employees who were giving their reports nervous and wondering countless times if they were talking too much and making the big boss keep an eye on the time on his phone.
In the afternoon, Wen Minzhao sat in his office and couldn't calm down. He kept glancing at his phone, which was already on, with his brows furrowed and his mood looking unpleasant.
After a long while, he finally managed to control his inner turmoil and began to focus on his work.
When you're fully immersed in your work, time seems to fly by. Suddenly, a WeChat notification sounded. Wen Minzhao abruptly turned his head, his gaze fixed intently on the phone on the table, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips. He reached out, grabbed the phone, opened WeChat, and saw the latest message on the screen:
First-grade teacher Ms. Liu: [Wenye's father, it's been twenty minutes since school ended, and no one has come to pick up Wenye yet. Who is supposed to pick up Wenye today?]
