Chapter 116: Nameless Sacrifice
"I believe that with your intelligence, you should have no problem dealing with your parents. It just depends on whether you want to."
After saying that, without giving her a chance to return the money, Shen Shian strode into the yard of his apartment. Xu Ziyue didn't want to bother him again for 500 yuan, so she accepted it and planned to use the money to buy something delicious for Asi.
Genting Highlands
When Yan Nuo walked past him for the twelfth time, Fu Shangbei put down the "Handbook for Caring for Pregnant Women" and reached out to pull her onto his lap, holding her chin with his fingertips. "Why aren't you reading with me tonight and are you walking around? What do you want to do?"
"I'm thinking about my best friend!" Yan Nuo leaned on the man's chest. "She resigned from the Fuhuang Group. If she wants to work there again in the future, will she be discriminated against?"
"The Fuhuang Group has a rule that if you resign voluntarily, your resume will not be accepted again within three years. The Fuhuang Group has a mature resume screening process. If someone resigns, they will not be accepted as an applicant again within three years. This is a global resume screening process."
"Ah? Three years is such a long time!" Yan Nuo frowned.
"Why did your best friend resign? Was someone bullying her?" It didn't make sense. If Miss Xu was bullied, Yan Nuo would have complained to him and asked him to seek justice for Miss Xu. Now it seemed that Miss Xu resigned on her own initiative.
"She resigned for love." Yan Nuo could only tell him this much. After all, this was Yueyue's privacy.
Fu Shangbei said "Oh" indifferently, picked up the book and continued reading.
Yan Nuo looked at him: "That's it?"
"Yeah." Fu Shangbei's eyes were focused on the contents of the book.
Yan Nuo leaned against him, looking at the gorgeous crystal chandelier and murmured, "I still want to discuss something with you."
"Discuss how to get your bestie to break up with her boyfriend?"
President Fu's sudden move shocked Yan Nuo, who said in surprise, "Of course not. Why do you think so? I'm just worried about Yueyue's future."
"Isn't it worth breaking up with a man who needs to sacrifice a woman's future?"
"ah?"
"Didn't your bestie quit her job because of her boyfriend?"
"Yeah, but it's not really a sacrifice. Her boyfriend started a company and wanted her to help out."
"Humph, what company has a bright future compared to the Fuhuang Group? Anyone who reaches the director level at the headquarters can be sent out to the branches and subsidiaries as a senior executive, becoming the president or vice president of a subsidiary. If your best friend goes to her boyfriend's place, she'll never become the president. Isn't that a sacrifice?"
Yan Nuo opened his mouth in astonishment.
Fu Shangbei reached out and closed her mouth, saying, "Keep your bestie awake and don't let her boyfriend drain her of her value."
"You haven't even met her boyfriend, and you don't know who he is. Why are you so pessimistic about them?"
"I just don't like this kind of nameless sacrifice." Fu Shangbei said mercilessly, raising his hand to gently pinch his wife's delicate nose. "She's just going to work in his company as his girlfriend. If she can't get married in the future, she can't return to Fuhuang Group for at least three years. After three years, there will be a lot of rising stars. How can she compete with others? The development department only recruits fresh interns every year. For someone like her who has worked outside, the competition for positions is quite fierce. She even resigned from the headquarters and went to a backward compatible company. This is a black spot on her resume, and it will directly reduce points with the human resources department."
"You make my heart go cold." Yan Nuo covered his chest with his hands, his face full of worry. "If that's the case, I can only open a company and let Yueyue be the president. Otherwise, she will be devastated and hurt."
Fu Shangbei: "...Is there anything else you want to discuss with me?"
"No!" You, a big CEO, actually have a rule that you can't return to the company within three years. That's why I don't want to talk to you anymore. Yan Nuo got up and prepared to go upstairs to sleep.
The next second, the man's arm was across her waist, and with his other hand he held up a book. His voice was low and sexy: "Since you don't have it, study with me."
Yan Nuo closed his eyes: "I fell asleep."
The man hooked his lips, lowered his head and sucked her pink lips. The strong masculine scent forced Yan Nuo to want to escape. She opened her eyes and begged for mercy: "I will read with you, read with you."
"That's good." Fu Shangbei stopped teasing her and held her in his arms. He looked at the contents of the book and took oral notes for her: "If you want to prevent stretch marks, you should apply safe skin care products in advance to replenish your skin with good moisture. It seems that it is better to take care of your whole body. You can't do this by yourself, so I can help you."
"Yeah! Please help me apply the paint on my back."
"I'll apply it all over your body." Fu Shangbei stared at her face: "You usually don't even apply skincare products on your neck properly."
"No, it's spread evenly. What do you, a man, know?"
Hearing this, Fu Shangbei lowered his head and sniffed her neck, then poked the area behind her ear with his fingertips in a serious tone, "I didn't apply it here."
"Nonsense, how do you know I didn't apply it?" When she got up, he had already gone to work!
The man raised an eyebrow. "When I smell it, the smell of skincare products behind my ears isn't that strong, which means you didn't apply it there."
"...Pervert." It was perverted enough that Jiang's mother knew exactly how many vegetables she ate, but she didn't expect this guy to be even more perverted.
"You smell so good that I can smell it." After saying that, he buried his head in Yan Nuo's neck and sniffed and kissed it, making it so itchy that Yan Nuo held the man's face with her hands and begged for mercy: "No, husband, please let me go!"
Fu Shangbei really enjoyed being called "husband". He curled up the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, raised his head and let the little girl go for the time being. It was still early and Jiang's mother was still busy. Usually Yan Nuo was very reserved at this time.
Yan Nuo looked at the man's handsome face like an iceberg and said in surprise: "Husband, it seems like you haven't been sick for a long time. Are you okay?"
After she said that, Fu Shangbei finally realized that it had been some time since he last went to the hospital. His physical condition was very stable, which had never happened before.
Looking up, his gaze fell quietly on the door of the secret room. Fu Shangbei's heart was beating violently. Maybe... he was really healed. And all of this was brought about by his wife Yan Nuo.
"Now that you're better, can you stop living here?" Yan Nuo dug out the little plan that was buried in her heart, and looked at the man with bright eyes full of expectation.
Fu Shangbei didn't want to disappoint her, but he still had some concerns. He said in a deep voice, "Stay here until you give birth to the baby. If I don't get sick again by then, we'll move to the mansion. If it's still the same, you and the child can move there."
"If you don't go, I won't move for the time being. The child can't live without a father." Yan Nuo hugged the man's neck with a firm tone.
Fu Shangbei's eyes were slightly moist: "Silly girl, you have already given birth to a child for me, there is no need to wrong yourself like this. Alas, if I hadn't fulfilled my responsibilities as a husband and a father, I wouldn't leave you here..."
"What are you talking about? This isn't a prison. Look at what you're saying. Fu Shangbei, husband and wife aren't just words. You think marriage means no divorce, but I also think that husband and wife should be together and can't be separated, just like my parents. No matter where my dad goes, he always takes my mom with him."
Hearing Yan Nuo use the word "parents" to describe their current relationship, Fu Shangbei was deeply moved. He held Yan Nuo's small hand and placed it on his lips. His eyes were deep and his voice was soft: "Wife, you and the child will be my motivation for everything."
"Dad also said the same thing to Mom. I didn't expect that one day someone would say the same thing to me." Yan Nuo chuckled, her cheeks flushed, and she pulled her hand back from the man.
