Chapter 99 Her ex-husband begged and pleaded to see her one last time.
Xiang Jingheng prepared the materials needed for Xiang Chu's transfer to the school.
He was waiting for Yu Yan to come to him and ask for these things, so that he could take the opportunity to have a good "talk" with her about the issue of picking up and dropping off Xiao Chu at school.
The child was born to both of them. Although he was awarded custody during the divorce, she, as the mother, also has the responsibility to raise the child. How could she just push the child onto him alone?
Besides, she has time to help Shao Muyan take care of his nephew, but not time to take care of her own child?
absurd!
Even if she wants to marry into the Shao family, she can't lower herself like this; even her ex-husband can't stand it!
Xiang Jingheng sat in the boss's chair with his arms crossed and took a deep breath.
I secretly warned myself that I couldn't do that.
He still needs to calmly talk to Yu Yan. He loses his temper every time he gets emotional, which is not good for him to rebuild his family. He can't just hand Yu Yan over to that bastard Shao Muyan!
Jin Fan knocked on the door. "President Xiang."
"Enter."
Xiang Jingheng put on airs, looking at the documents without even looking up, and said, "Is Yu Yan here? Tell her to wait for me in the conference room for a moment."
"It is indeed Miss Yu. However, she did not come in person."
Jin Fan said, "It's Miss Yu's assistant, here to pick up the documents needed for the school transfer."
Xiang Jingheng looked up immediately upon hearing this, "Assistant?"
"yes."
Xiang Jingheng frowned and slammed the document shut in his hand.
Now that he's a professor, he's become arrogant and has an assistant, so he doesn't even come anymore.
Is it really that hard for him to see her?
You have to beg and plead with everyone.
"She only sent an assistant to pick up such important documents for her child's school transfer?"
Xiang Jingheng's temper flared up quickly. He tapped the folder heavily with his finger and said, "There's a household registration book in here. What if it gets lost? Go tell her assistant to have Yu Yan come and pick it up in person."
Jin Fan: "..."
Is Mr. Xiang still half asleep, or did he take the wrong medicine?
Seeing Jin Fan standing there in a daze, he called out to Jing Heng, "Go!"
Jin Fan silently chanted "For work, for work," and steeled himself to meet Yu Yan's assistant, subtly relaying his boss's words.
The assistant raised an eyebrow, giving him a look that said, "Does your boss have some serious illness?"
Jin Fan chuckled dryly and wiped his sweat.
"It's not easy for anyone... Why don't you ask Miss Yu for her permission?"
The assistant then called Yu Yan.
When Yu Yan received the call, she was having a heated discussion with Shao Muyan about a professional issue, and her train of thought was completely disconnected.
After a moment of hesitation, I finally understood what my assistant was saying.
"You mean, Xiang Jingheng refuses to give it to me?"
Assistant: "Yes. They said you need to come and collect it in person."
"..."
Yu Yan was speechless for a moment. Who was asking whom for a favor?
Shao Muyan raised an eyebrow, immediately knowing what Xiang Jingheng was planning. He said to his assistant, "It's alright, you can come back now. Tell President Xiang we're not in a hurry. He'll send someone to deliver it when he has time, and if he doesn't, that's fine."
"Okay, Professor Shao."
Xiang Jingheng, who was standing at the door, heard the assistant's reply.
When Yu Yan's assistant relayed Shao Muyan's words to Xiang Jingheng verbatim, Xiang Jingheng coldly said, "Has Professor Yu's brain been overtaken by love after falling in love?"
"She listens to everything Shao Muyan says?"
"She just listens to that man like that? What am I then? If she had acted like this before, would we have gotten a divorce?"
The file folder was slapped into Jin Fan's hands with a "thud".
The moment the door slammed shut, accompanied by Xiang Jingheng's barely suppressed roar: "Give it to her!"
"..."
The entire CEO office was completely silent.
Mei Nan witnessed the whole thing, stood up from her workstation, walked over, and smiled as she comforted Yu Yan's assistant, "I'm sorry, our CEO Xiang isn't feeling well today and isn't in a good mood. The documents are all here, please take care of them, Ms. Yu."
He then said to Jin Fan, "You see the young lady off. I'm going in to check on President Xiang."
Jin Fan clasped his hands together, his face full of gratitude.
—
The assistant delivered the documents to Yu Yan and complained about Xiang Jingheng for a long time.
Shao Muyan handed her a glass of warm water, "Take a break, your mouth is dry from talking."
The assistant thanked her, tilted her head back and drank the water in one gulp. Then, belatedly realizing that she might have gone too far, she stood up and looked at Yu Yan with trepidation.
"I'm sorry, Professor Yu, I shouldn't have said that about you... my ex-husband."
Yu Yan checked that the documents were complete, closed the file bag, and said, "No, you're absolutely right, these are my true feelings. I feel bad that you got injured at work, I'll send you a red envelope later."
Having such an ex-husband is practically a criminal record for Yu Yan.
It's too embarrassing to show off.
As soon as her assistant left, Yu Yan sighed at Shao Muyan with a look of utter despair.
Shao Muyan came over and ruffled her hair. "Don't be angry. It was the right thing you didn't go, otherwise you would have been even angrier. Give me the documents, I'll have someone take care of it this afternoon. I know the process well."
"Okay." Yu Yan nodded. With Uncle Yan around, things were so much easier for her.
Shao Muyan was reliable and quickly completed the procedures for transferring to Chu School, and was assigned to the same class as Shao Yun.
Unbeknownst to Xiang Chu, she not only saw Shao Yun in her new class, but was also inexplicably assigned by the teacher to sit next to him.
I was completely dazed and confused all morning.
As soon as the bell rang for the end of the last class, the children went wild. Some were taken away by their parents, while others were taken to the cafeteria by their teachers.
"Let's go eat."
Shao Yun pulled Xiang Chu up from her seat.
Xiang Chu was still confused. She was led to the cafeteria by Shao Yun, and only after getting her food did she remember, "...the nanny prepared a lunchbox for me."
Shao Yun looked at him and said, "Then why don't you tell me?"
"..."
He spoke with a blank expression, sounding somewhat fierce, which immediately made Xiang Chu feel wronged. "You didn't even ask me."
Shao Yun frowned when she saw him lower his head, looking like he was about to cry.
"Are you going to cry?"
Xiang Chu looked up abruptly, pouting, "I won't cry, I'm a man!"
Shao Yun smiled to himself, thinking to himself, "It's not like I haven't seen you cry before."
He smiled, and Xiang Chu became embarrassed, blushing.
"Let's go, let's eat first."
Shao Yun's tone softened a bit. He led Xiang Chu to a seat, fetched chopsticks and a spoon, and handed them to him, acting very much like an older brother.
"It's hot, and food doesn't keep well. You don't need to bring a lunchbox anymore; I'll bring you lunch."
Xiang Chu opened her mouth, looking at Shao Yun as if she wanted to say something, but then looked down at the food on her plate and shut her mouth.
Shao Yun disliked his habit of hesitating to speak, "Just say what you have to say, don't beat around the bush."
...She's getting fierce again.
Xiang Chu pouted, "I'm picky; there are many things I can't eat."
He was prepared for Shao Yun to say he was being delicate, but to his surprise, Shao Yun remained calm and said indifferently, "I know you are allergic to many foods and need to be careful about what you eat. My aunt told me that."
Xiang Chu looked up blankly, "She told you?"
Shao Yun frowned, and Xiang Chu suddenly remembered something, reflexively adding, "My mother."
Once he became obedient, Shao Yun's expression returned to normal, and he lowered his head and slowly took a sip of soup.
"Yes, I remember everything."
Shao Yun slightly raised his chin. "Is there anything on your plate that you can't finish?"
Xiang Chu looked down again and found that there was indeed nothing there.
And they were all his favorite foods.
"From now on, you'll be working for me."
Shao Yun told him to eat obediently, and then made a final decision: "I told you to call me 'brother' for a reason."
Xiang Chu: "...Oh."
Oh well.
