"Xiao Xi, can you take me to see your mother?" Han Yuxue pleaded as he looked at Ye Xi.
Ye Xi's forehead slightly wrinkled, "I still have to work in the afternoon, I'm afraid not."
"Silly child, of course I know you have to work in the afternoon. I mean after you get off work." Seemingly knowing that Ye Xi was Xu Qiu's daughter, Han Yuxue became even more passionate towards him.
"?" Ye Xi squinted his eyes, muttering to himself for a moment, then looked at Han Yuxue, "Ok."
After returning to the company, Ye Xi stood at the window of his office and called Xu Qiu.
"Mom, where are you now?"
"I'm at the hotel, what's the matter, baby?"
Ye Xi pursed his lips, turned around and leaned against the window. He tilted his head and looked down from the window, "I just missed you."
"If you miss your mother, then go home. Mom will cook good food for you." Xu Qiu's tone was gentle and her smile was shallow. Hearing that Ye Xi missed her, she was in a good mood.
"Yeah, I'll be home from work." Ye Xi blinked his eyes, and turned to look at his feet.
"Alright, mom will go home early today and prepare some good things for you." Xu Qiu's voice was even faster and joyful.
Ye Xi could not help but smile slightly.
"Xiao Xi, how do you feel about going to work recently?" Adapt? Huo's is the largest listed company in B City. I presume that the requirements for every single employee is very high. Moreover, the workload is definitely not light. Xu Qiu asked nervously.
Ye Xi raised his head to look at the table. Other than the few documents on the table, there was nothing else.
Since she had been transferred to the administrative office, her job had not increased, and the word "leisure" could not be more appropriate to describe her current working condition.
Ye Xi pouted and said, "Mom, I don't think there's any job easier than mine in the entire B City."
"?" Xu Qiu was silent for a few seconds, then laughed: "It's not good to be relaxed, is it?"
"It's good, it's just that I'm too free. I can't even find anything to do." Ye Xi laughed bitterly.
"Xiao Xi, girl, you don't have to work too hard. It's better to relax." Xu Qiu said tenderly.
"Yes." Ye Xi nodded and suddenly changed the topic."Mom, are you still in the hotel at home?"
Xu Qiu laughed, "What if I don't? "For mom, the hotel and home are home, hur hur?"
"You're still so young. When the hotel is free, you can take a walk, meet your friends for coffee, hang out, etc. You might even have a second spring!" After saying that, Ye Xi's eyes became straight as he giggled.
"Pfft, damn girl. You really have too much free time at work. You're all looking for me?" Xu Qiu snorted.
Ye Xi narrowed his eyes and turned around, supporting himself with one hand, he stared at the ground floor of the building, "Mom, you are only in your thirties, and are still so young. Don't go through such a stiff life, it's better to just go out for a walk and meet more friends."
"Mom, where are our friends?" With that, Xu Qiu suddenly took a deep breath, "Xiao Xi, why did you suddenly tell Mom this? You didn't care about that before."
Ye Xi's heart was stung, yes, she cared too little for her!
Closing his eyes, Ye Xi pressed his face against the glass."Mom, I just think you can start a new life."
"..." Mother was very satisfied with her life now, so she didn't need to start a new one. As long as you are well, and you and Yaoting are well, mother will be satisfied."
Ye Xi's eyes grew unsightly, he stretched out his finger and pressed it against the corner of his eyes, "Mother, so many years have passed, are you lonely?"
As someone who knew about her father's betrayal, how had she endured all these years?
No relatives, no friends to accompany her, only to guard her alone, she was not lonely, did not feel sad?
"?" Xu Qiu's silence for a long time made Ye Xi's tears fall, "Mother?"
"Xiao Xi, Mommy isn't lonely, because Mommy has always had you, and my darling. Mommy feels that Mommy is the happiest woman in the world!" Xu Qiu's gentle voice trembled slightly.
Ye Xi's tears fell down uncontrollably as she bit her thumb tightly. Ye Xi was afraid that she would hear anything strange and kept the phone.
The door to the tightly shut Canadian Pear Tree was pushed open by a powerful force. The man walked in through the door with a gloomy look on his face.
The sound of the stiletto heels hitting the ground followed suit.
The tall and slim owner's breathing quickened, and he said in a strained and respectful voice, "CEO, the one in charge of overseeing the renovation of the land purchased in the south of the city has always been the President Huo's manager. Right now, because the manager of the President Huo and the young miss of the Gu family were informed about the news two days ago that they had no time to worry about the supervisors of the southern region of the city, the people who were causing trouble probably saw this and took advantage of the situation to cause a ruckus, in order to attract the attention of the media and obtain greater compensation and benefits from the Huo's."
"Compensation and benefits?" Hearing that, the man coldly turned his head to look at the woman, "Secretary Liu, will you use your own life to demand compensation and benefits?"
Liu Ni felt a chill down her spine from his stare, and she bit her lips in shame.
Today at noon, he suddenly received a report that the previous residents of the southern part of the city had caused a huge ruckus, which had seriously affected the progress of the reconstruction of the southern part of the city, and had even attracted a lot of attention from the media and police.
With such a huge commotion, the manager of the President Huo was recently 'invited' back to his old house by the Huo Family. Naturally, she did not expect him to deal with it.
The CEO never liked to show her face, so she just sat in the car and let her figure out what was going on.
She was surprised by what she found out.
It turned out that the buying process of the land at the south side of the city was not as smooth and open as they had imagined, and the job of purchasing the land was also under the responsibility of the President Huo manager.
Several residents who were originally living in the southern part of the city all expressed that they had been threatened, even threatened with violence. They forced them to sign the purchase book.
The reason why they had joined hands to cause such a ruckus was because two of them, who were the heads of household who had been subjected to violent beatings, had died recently due to their injuries being treated ineffectively.
Many of the other residents who were treated the same way were still in the hospital with serious injuries. Their lives were in danger!
Thinking about that, Liu Ni closed his eyes: I'm sorry, CEO.
"You don't have to tell me you're sorry." Huo Yaoting took off his suit jacket, threw it on the sofa, then walked over to his desk and sat down.
Narrowing his eyes, Huo Yaoting leaned against the chair of the class, his gaze was deep as he stared at the screen, it was a girl obediently sitting in front of a desk, seriously opening a document, she still looked a little childish.
Liu Ni bit her lips, helpless and ashamed, her eyebrows knitted tightly, "CEO, I..."
"Get out!"
