Su Nianxue said calmly, "Oh, that girl's name is Tang Yu, and she's from the same hometown as us!"
"She's also from Qingshui Town?"
"That was true before. Her father is older than Yanbai and the others, and they have some connection. I heard he even helped them before."
Later, her father passed away, and her mother remarried and moved to another place with her.
I don't know how, but they ended up in the provincial capital. We met them on the street a couple of years ago.
Yanbai saw that the mother and daughter were having a hard time, so he helped them.
A few days ago, they came to our door and asked Yanbai to help the girl find a job.
He saw that the girl was clever, and considering his friendship with her father, he arranged for her to stay by his side, intending to mentor her.
Su Nianxue had also met the girl, and she was indeed as Gu Yanbai had said—a clever one.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Yang Hongxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she had been worrying for nothing.
She's not one to keep secrets; heaven knows, she's been holding it in for days.
She had been thinking about how to find an opportunity to tell Su Nianxue about this.
She didn't want her friend to suffer a loss; after all, you can't judge a book by its cover...
People, especially women, can benefit from being a little more shrewd!
"What else? What do you think is going on?" Su Nianxue teased her.
Yang Hongxing waved her hands repeatedly, "No, I didn't think of anything! I just said it offhand."
If she had known this was how it was, she wouldn't have said a word.
Isn't this just stirring up trouble between a married couple?
"Alright, we've been together for so many years. Do you think I don't know what kind of person you are?"
"I know you're doing this for my own good, thanks!" Seeing the slight embarrassment on her face, Su Nianxue smiled and patted her hand.
"Nianxue, it's good that you know. Otherwise, I..." Yang Hongxing was a little embarrassed.
"Alright, stop thinking about it. Didn't we say we wanted to go to the mall? Let's go."
The two arrived at the mall together.
As soon as I entered, I saw Zhou Mingjie chatting and laughing with two girls in a corner!
"Mingjie, can you tell us about what happened between you two again?"
"Yes, tell us more, you're so funny, we love listening to your stories."
Zhou Mingjie leaned back lazily in his chair. "Sister, even the donkeys in the production team need to rest."
You guys need to give people a break, you know. I've been talking for so long, my mouth is all dry..."
"We'll go get you some water!"
"Alright, I'll accept it!"
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, a familiar figure burst in.
The man crossed his arms, looked at him with disdain, and his eyes flashed with coldness.
Zhou Mingjie was shocked and jumped up from his chair, looking flustered and embarrassed. "You, what are you doing here?"
"What, can't I come?" Yang Hongxing glanced at the two girls surrounding him, her eyes holding a half-smile.
Zhou Mingjie quickly waved to the two girls, "Go on with your work!"
The two girls hurriedly left.
"Zhou Mingjie, you're living a pretty comfortable life."
No wonder he's been going to the mall all the time these days; apparently, he has some little girl here to keep him company and amuse him. Yang Hongxing's tone was somewhat sarcastic.
"Keep your voice down. This is a shopping mall, with people coming and going. It'll sound awful if word gets out." Zhou Mingjie glanced at Su Nianxue, his face flushed with embarrassment.
"You know it sounds bad, huh? Then why don't you do it!" Yang Hongxing gave him a disdainful look.
What did I do?
It's just that you talked to someone a few more times, why are you so petty?
Besides, I'm here to work, not to look at any young girls.
"How old are you? Still arguing with a young girl. Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you if word gets out?" Zhou Mingjie said somewhat awkwardly.
"Oh, so you think I'm too old and not as youthful as a young girl, is that it?" Yang Hongxing was reluctant to forgive him easily.
But considering that he was in charge, I lowered my voice and gave him some face.
"How could that be! I just got carried away with my words and ended up here."
"We're an old married couple, why are you saying these things?" Some people in the mall were already looking this way.
Zhou Mingjie hurried over and tried to put his arm around her shoulder.
But when he looked at Su Nianxue, he lowered his raised arm.
Su Nianxue kept her eyes down, pretending not to see his little actions.
"You guys chat, I'll go upstairs and check on Yanbai."
She left those words behind and hurriedly ran upstairs.
After seeing her leave, Zhou Mingjie quickly pulled Yang Hongxing to his lounge.
They were busy saying nice things and smiling obsequiously.
Finally, Yang Hongxing's anger subsided slightly. "Zhou Mingjie, if you're tired of this kind of life now..."
Just tell me directly. Don't worry, I don't think I'll bother you.
"If you had just asked, I would have immediately taken my son and moved far away to make room for you."
"How could that be? Didn't I already say so?"
"I was just tired from work, and I was joking around with that young girl. Look at you, why are you so angry?" Zhou Mingjie wanted to slap himself.
That's really unlucky of her, how did she have to run into this right away!
Upstairs in the office.
Seeing the woman push open the door and enter, a hint of a smile flickered in Gu Yanbai's eyes. "What brings you here?"
"What's wrong? I came at the wrong time." She raised an eyebrow and teased him.
"Also? You came with Yang Hongxing?" Gu Yanbai thought for a moment and understood what she meant.
“Yes, someone’s being disciplined right now!” She sat down casually.
