For the next period of time, everyone took a short break from their busy schedules.
Having been under constant pressure at work, Chi Rang finally arrived in the seaside city. He, Yan Miao, and Chi Yinyin explored all the famous attractions in the city!
They even dragged me around to check out street food stalls.
Although he felt a little resistant, he also enjoyed the feeling of walking on the street, relaxed and comfortable.
Yan Miao and Chi Yinyin went absolutely crazy, wanting to buy everything they saw, and thinking about going out to play as soon as they opened their eyes every morning!
Grandpa Chi bought the courtyard next to Tang Xue's, renovated it, and planned to settle down there.
He goes next door to curry favor with them every day!
Although Tang Xue often locked him out, he still persisted in cooking his signature dishes and stewing nourishing soups for her every day, trying to win her favor.
He cherished Tang Shu even more!
After making Tang Xue's portion every day, he would also make another portion separately according to Tang Shu's taste, and personally deliver it to her company at noon.
This kid is working way too hard and doesn't take care of his health!
Grandpa Chi felt heartbroken looking at Tang Shu's thin figure.
At their first meeting, Tang Shu didn't feel much about this father who had suddenly appeared, but over time, she could still sense his love for her.
...........
"Team Leader Tang was promoted to chairman so quickly, is she really the eldest daughter of the Chi family?"
"Nonsense, who would willingly hand over their assets if they weren't a member of the Chi family? Isn't this just asking for nothing?"
"But if she really is a rich girl, why would she have the surname Tang? And she's been unknown all these years, at most a mid-level manager in the company. Could she be an illegitimate child?"
"That makes sense. Giving her an illegitimate child is already giving her too much credit; maybe it's 2+1..."
"Wang Dali! Is this how you manage your subordinates? Fire these gossipy people right now!"
As soon as Mr. Chi arrived at the company entrance, he heard the receptionist muttering to herself.
They actually dared to say that Tang Shu was an illegitimate child!
She is the apple of my eye!
Hearing the furious voice on the other end of the line, Wang Dali nodded repeatedly, "Chairman, please calm down! I didn't know they were spreading these rumors! It's all my fault for not disciplining them properly. Don't worry, I'll fire them right away!"
The two receptionists were caught red-handed and were too scared to say a word.
It’s over!
To speak ill of someone and have that person's own father overhear it—what kind of bad luck is that!
Old Master Chi snorted coldly and strode towards the elevator.
The manager who arrived glared at the two receptionists. "The company pays you to work, not for you to gossip about the boss. And you even said she's an illegitimate daughter? 2+1?"
"The chairman personally delivered food to his beloved daughter, and you've all spread this rumor!"
"Your precious Tang Shu is treated like royalty, and you dare to make up such nonsense? Sign the contract now, take your wages and get out!"
The two receptionists turned pale with fright.
I'm innocent!
They were just muttering a few words, and they ended up losing their jobs!
The moment Old Master Chi stepped into the office, Tang Shu noticed him. She shook her head helplessly, "Why are you here again?"
He's been bringing himself lunch for a week straight!
To Tang Shu's surprise, he actually knew what dishes she liked to eat and would stew a nourishing soup for her every day.
"You're getting on in years, and you were just discharged from the hospital recently. You should rest at home."
She still couldn't bring herself to call out "Dad".
I'm not young anymore, I'm in my forties, and it's only been a week since I reunited with my biological father.
Suddenly asking her to call him "Dad" just feels so awkward!
“I don’t need to worry about things at home. Those kids are having too much fun. I’ll just focus on making some nice food for you and your mom every day.”
"Try it quickly. Those shrimp were made by your mom, and this stir-fried beef with yellow peppers is what I made. It's a specialty from my hometown, I'm sure you'll like it."
Grandpa Chi knew she was busy, having just taken over the company and with a lot of things to deal with. After delivering the meal, he didn't bother her any longer and quietly turned and left.
When Yin Zhengqing arrived at the company gate, he could only see the rear of his car.
"Dad just came by again!"
"You can say it quite smoothly."
Tang Shu glanced at him and called him over to eat.
Yin Zhengqing ran over with a grin, "No matter what, he is your biological father, and he genuinely wants to make it up to you. Since you can't bring yourself to call him that, I'll do it for my wife."
“I know you don’t dislike him, and I should thank him too.”
"What do you mean? Are you thanking him for letting you get free meals every day?"
"No, things have taken a turn for the better at the company. I initially thought it was Mayor Zou's help. But after investigating further, I discovered that Dad had already intervened before Mayor Zou!"
"He truly loves you, and I love him because of you."
"You mean, he was the one who resolved the company's issues?"
"That's right. If it weren't for Dad's help, the company would have been bankrupt by the time Mayor Zou remembered it!"
"He not only helped the company attract a lot of investment, but he also took action against the second son's in-laws!"
Upon hearing his words, Tang Shu looked at the delicious food in front of her and fell into deep thought.
Yin Zhengqing put a few pieces of beef into her bowl. "Eat up. There will be plenty of opportunities to get to know each other in the future. You have to accept him gradually."
...
The Yin family.
Mr. Yin stared at Yin Zhengxi, whose face was bruised and swollen, and sat on the stool, sulking.
Yin's mother was terrified and hugged him, crying bitterly, "Damn it, who did this?!"
"How dare you beat me up like this? It's just that something happened at the company. Every business has its problems, how dare you resort to violence!"
"Son, tell Mom who did it, and I'll call the police right now and have them arrested!"
Yin Zhengxi's face darkened. Thinking that he would soon have nothing left, he irritably pushed her away.
"You bastard! What are you doing? Your mother was just trying to comfort you, and you dare to hit her!"
Yin's father slapped him hard, followed by a kick that knocked him to the ground.
Yin Zhengxi gritted his teeth, ready to retaliate, but the two Li brothers suddenly appeared in the living room. "You really were here!"
The nanny recognized them and knew they were from Yin Zhengxi's father-in-law's family, so she let them in without asking any questions.
But she never imagined that it was these two brothers-in-law who beat Yin Zhengxi up like that!
Because of him, the Li family went bankrupt completely, became heavily indebted overnight, and was kicked out of the villa!
Damn it, who knows what kind of people this kid messed with outside, that he actually dragged his whole family down with him, and now he dares to hide!
