Chapter 534 Debt
Obviously, when people are busy, their minds tend to get confused. At this moment, the boss really believed his sister's nonsense. "Sister, you must get along well with Mr. Ye. You can't let such a profitable business be handed over to someone else. I will definitely give you a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year."
The editor's sister didn't believe it. "Just frame me, and you can even give me a big red envelope without my sister-in-law's knowledge. It's good enough that you didn't deduct money. If I weren't your sister, I wouldn't stay here. Hurry up and print more, and stop talking nonsense here."
The editor didn't believe what his brother said, so he turned around and left the office.
The publishing house sent several copies of the first edition of the book to Ye Qian's office. Ye Qian also ordered dozens of books for herself, keeping a few for her own collection and signing the rest to give away. The first person she gave it to was Lawyer Quan. The two have known each other for so many years, and Lawyer Quan is her loyal fan. No matter whether it is a movie or a book, she asked for her signature on all of them and kept them all. So when the new book came out, she naturally would not forget Lawyer Quan's copy.
Other than that, there’s nothing special.
Speaking of loyal fans besides Lawyer Quan, there is another person, that is Fu Shan. Unfortunately, she is no longer with us. There are some things that I cannot think about, because once I think about them, my emotions become difficult to control.
Ye Qian quickly regained her composure and returned to work. After quickly completing the work at hand, she hurried home.
Ranran has been in school for a month and has long since adapted to school life. For someone who has never left home since childhood, the result of finally being able to leave home is that he has not returned home once in a month. This is a bit too much. Ye Qian couldn't help but have some thoughts. Are all men like this? They want to be a bird without feet, flying as far as the sky allows, flying infinitely far and never returning home.
She just wanted to go back early and wait at home to see if Ranran was planning to go home this week.
But she had no intention of going to school to look for him. After all, the child was already so old, and it would be embarrassing to go to school to look for him. In comparison, other students only went home once a semester, and their home was close! It was only an hour's bus ride away, so why didn't he come back? The key point was that he called during the first week, but who knew that there would be no calls later.
Ye Qian finished her work, tidied up her desk, and drove home. She just wanted to see if Ranran would come back this week.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the door, she heard Ranran's voice, laughing so happily that she felt a little uncomfortable. For a moment, she began to reflect. The child has grown up, and she can no longer control him in everything like before. He needs his own space.
But then I think it's a little off. Space is space, but there should still be accountability. It's a matter of responsibility, and it's different from not giving children space. It's like parents controlling their children in their twenties and thirties, not letting them do anything, and then fostering sneaky behavior without even explaining what they're doing. It's different from asking children to say, "I'm leaving," before leaving, or simply saying, "I'm going out to play, I'll be back later."
Just like Gu Jinyan, when the two of them are together, he won't say what he is going to do, but before going out or after returning home, he will say, "I'm back." If he can't come back, he will call his family within that time to let them know so that they don't worry. This is a sense of responsibility.
Ye Qian never asked about the specific details of Gu Jinyan's time outside, because Gu Jinyan gave her enough sense of security and responsibility, so she was not worried at all. So at this time, as far as she was concerned, Ranran's behavior of not going home without giving instructions was incorrect. Their family has always had this way of getting along, so should Ranran change it? Ye Qian was in a dilemma, and ended up running into Gu Jinyan who had returned.
Gu Jinyan looked at Ye Qian at the door, then at Ranran inside, and immediately understood the problem. After all, Ye Qian had nagged about this matter more than once, and Ranran came back and didn't admit his mistake and was smiling so happily. He seemed to need a lesson.
"Come in, I'll take care of him." Ye Qian glanced at Gu Jinyan, then laughed out loud when she heard his words.
"Well, it's time to educate them."
Obviously, Ranran didn't realize at this moment that he was in danger, and was still happily chatting and laughing with Ningning and Xixi.
"Ranran is back. Tell mom what you want to eat and I'll make it for you." Ye Qian said in a sarcastic tone.
When Ranran heard Ye Qian's voice, her whole body shuddered, and her mind raced. What had he done? Had he offended his mother recently? No, he hadn't even gone home, so how could he have offended his mother?
Ranran looked at Ye Qian guiltily, but Ye Qian did have a smile on her face at this moment, and the smile was not creepy. He was a little confused for a moment.
What exactly went wrong? He had just had the illusion that Ye Qian was going to punish him.
Ye Qian went straight to the kitchen without waiting for Ranran to answer. She just asked, these people will eat whatever she cooks, and those who don’t cook have no right to choose or be picky, otherwise they should cook it themselves.
It was rare for Ranran to come back, and since he was her biological son, Ye Qian would not treat him badly. She prepared several meat dishes and a soup for him.
Life has gotten better now, but there are still many people who cannot afford to eat meat, and she doesn't agree with the school meals. How delicious can the big pot meals be in this era? It's okay to give it to Ranran to supplement her food.
While busy in the kitchen, Ye Qian saw Gu Jinyan pull Ranran aside and teach her a lesson. After seeing this, Ye Qian expressed her satisfaction and became extra serious in cooking.
She didn't know what Gu Jinyan said to Ranran. She only knew that when the meal started, Ranran was still listless and lacked energy, but once she started eating, she became as good as when she just came back. Ye Qian couldn't help but admire her mentality. It was really good.
Ranran ate with great enthusiasm, chopstick after chopstick. If it weren't for his laughter when he came back, I would have thought he had gone to escape. Ye Qian said with disgust: "Don't you have any food in school? You eat in such an ugly way."
Ranran swallowed the meat in her mouth and said, "Yes, but it's not delicious. It's far inferior to the ones at home. Even the cabbage tastes much better at home."
Of course, how could the food in the space be bad? After being used to eating good food, it would be hard to swallow it at first when the food suddenly turned bad. But even so, this guy still didn't go home for a month. Ye Qian teased: "The food outside is so bad, you still forgot to go home after eating it for a month."
Ranran immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, Dad has already taught me a lesson. I promise I won't do it again next time. Even if I don't come back, I will definitely call and tell you. I won't do it silently. Please let me go."
"Hmph, let's keep this debt for now and settle it later."
