"Mom, we're going to perform tomorrow. Are you going with Grandpa and Grandma?" As soon as Xiao Nian Gao came back, she looked at her mother expectantly, hoping for her answer.
Yun Jin smiled and nodded: "Go ahead, how could I miss my precious daughter's performance?"
"Yay!" Little Rice Cake happily hugged her and said sweetly, "Mommy, I love you!"
Yun Jin smiled and kissed her daughter's forehead: "Mommy loves you too. Go wash your hands and call Grandpa back for dinner."
Little Rice Cake asked, "Where did Grandpa go?"
Yun Jin couldn't help but laugh: "Going off to show off your movie."
Now, all Mr. He likes to talk about is how great his granddaughter is, how good the movies are, and how filial she is. He has become the most disliked old man in the compound.
Little Rice Cake is truly outstanding; their granddaughter simply can't compare, and can only listen to Father He boast.
Even if they brag about how great their grandson is, Mr. He will say that sons and daughters are the same. Even if I don't have a grandson, my granddaughter is much better than your grandsons.
Others: "......."
You're shameless, you call the shots.
Xiao Niangao and his friends' performance was wonderful. Yun Jin did their makeup, prepared flowers and gifts. The group of children liked Yun Jin the most and also enjoyed playing with Xiao Niangao.
Yun Jin was very generous, treating them to fried chicken, fries, and hamburgers. It would be difficult for them not to like it.
After the performance, Yun Jin presented flowers.
He Zizhen took photos of them and also had a group photo taken.
Yun Jin asked Xiao Niangao, "You behaved well today, what would you like to eat? Mom will treat you."
"Mom, didn't you say I'd treat you last time? Shall we go eat roast duck?" Little Niangao asked expectantly, "And invite Aunt Li Cai and the others too."
“Okay!” Yun Jin asked He Zizhen to drive and pick up Li Cai and the others. When she mentioned Li Cai, Yun Jin thought of Director Liu, whom she had met in Hong Kong last time. He had told her something.
Last time they were filming in the desert, their family stayed in Li Cai's village. On the day they left, many houses in the village were burned down. They thought Yun Jin and the others were there too, so they went to ask.
I was relieved to find out they had left early.
Director Liu also asked, "I heard that a mentally challenged man and his wife were kidnapped by you guys?"
After Yun Jin told Director Liu about Li Cai's situation, Director Liu finally understood what had happened.
"Take them with you. If you leave them there, you'll never escape." Director Liu remarked, "I never expected you'd run into someone you knew. This is fate."
Yun Jin nodded in agreement.
Thinking of Li Cai's singed hair that day, Yun Jin guessed that Li Cai was probably the one who set those fires.
She harbored resentment towards that village and was about to leave, so she set it on fire as revenge.
Regardless of whether it was Li Cai or not, Yun Jin pretended not to know.
Li Cai and Gou Bao have adapted to life in Beijing. They are doing well at the hotel, receiving their monthly salaries on time. They eat and live at the hotel and have saved some money. They are especially grateful to Yun Jin.
Goubao's face lit up with joy when he saw Xiaoniangao. He adorably wanted to sit next to Xiaoniangao and wolfed down his food, even chewing up the roast duck bones and swallowing them whole.
Having endured hunger and cold in the past, I now cherish food all the more.
Yun Jin and the others were used to it and knew that Gou Bao was like this, so they wouldn't dislike him.
As Li Cai ate the roast duck, she felt that this was the kind of life a human being should have.
After eating and drinking their fill, Li Cai said, "We should head back now. There are quite a few guests at the hotel today, and the others might not be able to handle everything. If we go back early, we can help out."
Yun Jin didn't stop them, and asked the waiter to pack up the leftovers: "Take them back and add some more dishes."
"Okay!" Li Cai accepted it with a smile, without any hesitation. After saying goodbye to He's parents, she took Goubao and left by bus.
There are buses downstairs that go directly to the hotel. When Li Cai has free time, she takes Gou Bao on the bus to tour Beijing. Now Gou Bao can take the bus by himself skillfully and won't get lost in Beijing.
If Goubao were alone, he would definitely get lost.
Yun Jin's business was booming, which made many people envious. Some people tried to trip her up, which resulted in Yun Jin being summoned for questioning.
Upon hearing the news, Yun Jin greeted He's mother and went to the company. Facing the impartial inspectors, Yun Jin remained composed and dignified. When questioned, she presented evidence: "If you are not at ease, you can check the accounts. I would never do anything to evade taxes."
"Someone reported that you are employing mentally challenged people, which poses a safety hazard."
Yun Jin: "......"
"Don't worry, if he hurts anyone, I will take full responsibility for the consequences and will also restrain him from contacting the guests." Yun Jin said, "After all, there is no law that says a mentally challenged person can't work in a hotel."
They choked for a moment, realizing that Yun Jin was right.
Unable to find any trouble with Yun Jin, they exchanged a glance, knowing that there was no point in staying any longer, and could only leave dejectedly.
After seeing the people off, Yun Jin continued to assign tasks, telling them to be careful so as not to attract attention or cause trouble for the company.
The employees were reminded and nodded.
The company offers good benefits, and none of them want to lose their jobs.
So when a junior employee approached Yun Jin and said that someone had bribed him to put some things in the warehouse, he thought about it and decided to tell the boss's wife to avoid being tricked.
Yun Jin: "???"
Who is it?
The junior employee said, "It was a woman, probably in her fifties."
Yun Jin narrowed her eyes: "Next time I come to see you, you should hold the person back and secretly tell me. I want to see who's causing me trouble."
The junior employee nodded.
After Yun Jin got off work, she picked up Xiao Niangao on her way home. Xiao Niangao noticed that she looked preoccupied and asked, "Mom, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"It's nothing." Yun Jin didn't want her daughter to worry; it was just a small matter, and she could handle it.
Yun Jin perked up and asked Xiao Niangao about school. Xiao Niangao chattered on and on, recounting the day's events, and then asked, "Mommy, will Daddy come back to celebrate the New Year with us this year?"
“If Dad doesn’t have time, we can spend the New Year at the military base,” Yun Jin confirmed.
Little Rice Cake had no objection; "Great! I haven't spent the New Year at the garrison for a long time."
When she got home, He's mother asked, "Has the matter at the company been resolved?"
Yun Jin nodded.
Mrs. He was relieved and told him to wash his hands before eating.
Yun Jin didn't expect that the person who bribed the junior employee would show up so quickly.
Seeing that her previous report had left her unscathed, she decided to continue her antics after her first attempt failed.
Yun Jin was looking at documents in her office when her assistant came to her: "Sister Yun, Xiao Liu from the warehouse wants you to go over there. He says a big fish has arrived."
Yun Jin's eyes lit up. She immediately put down her work and strode towards the back door of the warehouse. In the alley, she saw the young employee named Xiao Liu holding onto someone tightly: "Don't go! I still have something to ask you!"
"Let go! Let go now! If you don't let go, I'm going to sue you for indecent assault!" Realizing something was wrong, the "big fish" struggled desperately, knowing he had been exposed.
Yun Jin narrowed her eyes, not expecting that she had guessed correctly.
It was indeed her, the middle-aged woman who was secretly plotting against us.
