When midnight struck, Su Ruowan was suffering from excruciating pain before she gave birth smoothly.
The doctor walked out of the delivery room with the baby in his arms. âCongratulations, Mrs. Jing. Itâs a baby boy. He was born at eleven fifty-nine, just one minute before midnight. And he weighs 3.75 kg.â
The charming woman took the baby from him and hurriedly left.
As soon as the womanâs figure disappeared from the doctorâs sight, he immediately went back to the delivery room.
âHelian, thank you,â Su Ruowan thanked him with a weak smile. She lay on the delivery bed with a beautiful baby girl beside her.
Helian Chen was the most popular obstetrician in D City. Aside from being handsome and rich, he was the brother of Helian Xun, Su Ruowanâs ex-boyfriend.
Thanks to his help, she was able to keep one of her children. Butâ¦
âBaby, Iâm so sorry. Itâs all my fault.â Thinking of the baby boy who was taken away as soon as he was born, she felt guilty in her heart. .
In the CEOâs office of the Jing Yang Group.
âBoss.â Lawyer He reported, âMiss Su sold the house early this morning and flew back to G City.â
A slender forefinger unconsciously tapped on the brown table. The owner of the hand was the new CEO of Jing Yang Group, Jing Muchen. He had healthy wheat-colored skin and perfect facial features that could make women instantly fall. Under his thick and delicate eyebrows were deep-set black eyes. His thin lips were slightly pressed, showing that he was a little unapproachable.
âBook a flight for me. I will fly to Italy tomorrow.â He paused for a while then continued in a low voice, âI have recommended you to Yan Nansheng. You can report to him starting tomorrow.â
Cold sweat streamed down Lawyer Heâs forehead. He bowed and said, âThank you, boss. You can rest assured that my lips are sealed. I will always keep this a secret.â
The next day, a piece of explosive news hit the headlines of all the major newspapers in D City. It said, âJing Muchen, who had just inherited Jing Yang Group, resigned this morning and flew to Italy. The specific reason remained unknown!â.
Four and a half years had already passed. In Yi Yuan Community in D City.
âLet bygones be bygones. Itâs too late. I will love you again. The white clouds twined around the blue skyâ¦â
A fair and slender hand took the phone from the bedside table. âLili⦠What? You want me to pinch-hit for you again? But Iâm going to accompany Jiu Jiu to a parent-child class today. Well⦠All right.â
âMommyâ¦â A childâs sweet voice sounded with protest and dissatisfaction.
After hanging up the phone, Su Ruowan bent over and kissed her daughterâs soft face. âBaby, sorry for waking you up. Go back to sleep now.â
Jiu Jiuâs two delicate little eyebrows immediately relaxed. She turned over like a lazy cat and fell asleep again. .
An hour later. âRise and shine!â Su Ruowan walked to the bedside and said softly.
Jiu Jiu sat up from the bed and rubbed her eyes. Her long black hair was in disarray, drooping from her shoulders. And her pretty little face still looked sleepy.
Su Ruowan quickly changed her clothes and said, âBaby, Mommy has something to tell you. You remember Aunt Wu, right?
Aunt Wu is taking her boyfriend home today, so Mommy has to take her place at work. I canât go to the parent-child class with you. But, to make it up to you, weâll have deep-fried shrimps for dinner tonight. Will that be okay?â
âOkay,â Jiu Jiu replied with a nod. She then raised her white and delicate hand, gave Su Ruowan a thumbs up, and said, âFor the sake of the shrimps, I forgive you.â
Su Ruowan smiled and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead. âYouâre such a good girl!â
Jiu Jiu then got down from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth.
Watching her beautiful and obedient daughter, a sense of happiness filled Su Ruowanâs heart. .
After eating breakfast together, Su Ruowan sent Jiu Jiu to the kindergarten and talked to the teacher. She bowed to the teacher again and again while apologizing.
She was always absent in every parent-child activity because of work. She knew she was an irresponsible mother.
Before she could feel guilty, she looked at the time on her watch. Seeing that it was almost nine oâclock, she rushed to the company.
She arrived late, and everyone had already changed their clothes.
âSorry, Iâm late. Give me five minutes. Iâll get changed right away.â Su Ruowan apologized to her coworkers repeatedly. Although she would only work on behalf of Wu Lili today, she still felt it was inappropriate to be late.
The moment Wang Zijian saw Su Ruowan, his eyes lit up at once. He really never hid his affection for her. âItâs okay, Ruowan. Everyone knows that you are a substitute today. Hereâs your uniform. Take your time. Weâll wait for you.â
âWell, Mr. Wang, thatâs actually not what you said just now. Youâve just yelled at us like a devil, havenât you?â Wu Yaxin, who was wearing a low-cut sleeveless dress, said sourly. She rolled her eyes and fanned herself with her hand.
Su Ruowan took the uniform from Wang Zijian and went to the dressing room to change. Wang Zijian was her senior in college, and he was the one who introduced her to this company. She knew that he had feelings for her, but she always pretended not to know.
âWhat? Canât I blame you? Donât you know that you are so slow? Whoâs the leader here, you or me? And look at what youâre wearing! Hurry up and change that! You are working as an etiquette girl, not a call girl!â With his hands on his waist, Wang Zijian scolded Wu Yaxin. He showed no respect for her at all.
âYou⦠Humph!â Wu Yaxin was so angry that her eyebrows raised. But Wang Zijian was the deputy manager, so she could only stamp her feet, turn around, and go to the dressing room.
Soon enough, Su Ruowan and Wu Yaxin walked out of the dressing room together after changing their clothes.
Actually, their uniform was just a simple, short red cheongsam. But when Su Ruowan wore it, it looked so beautiful and attractive. Her shoulders, waist, breasts, and buttocks were all perfectly curved, giving her an hourglass figure. Added with her beautiful and angelic face, she could pull off any outfit better than most women.
âRuowanâ¦â Wang Zijianâs eyes were full of admiration. âWell, look at you. You are really more suitable to be an etiquette girl than Wu Lili.â
Su Ruowan pulled the hem of her dress down and said anxiously, âMr. Wang, this dress⦠Isnât it a bit too short?â
âThis is actually the latest and improved model. The previous one didnât stand out in the industry at all,â Wang Zijian replied proudly. âThis new dress makes you look young and beautiful. Donât you think so? By the way, because of your commendable performance last time, even the dignified Dacheng Company has hired us.â
Su Ruowan was rendered speechless. . .
She kept on pulling the hem of her dress down, feeling uncomfortable. Fortunately, she thought of wearing her leggings today. Otherwise, she would look indecent if she wasnât careful enough.
âHumph! Donât pretend to look pure. Donât act like you havenât worn this kind of dress before.â
