"Aunt Xia, if you go to work, will you have time to accompany Xiao Bao?" Gu MingRui sat next to Xia YuQing, two dark eyebrows frowning together to make a look of sorrow.
Xia YuQing was looking at the job offers sent by various companies on her computer, and when she turned her face, she saw Xiao Baozi's expression that she couldn't bear to look straight, and almost got her laughing.
"You go to school and Auntie goes to work. When you are over from school, Auntie can continue to accompany you when Auntie is off work." Xia YuQing patiently indulged Gu MingRui.
With all kinds of job offers on the computer, Xia YuQing frowned and rubbed her temples, mostly for her own fame. However, the actual situation of the company may not be able to meet her requirements. She is no longer the Xia YuQing who knew nothing like before and will never be bullied or deceived casually.
Xia YuQing unconsciously squeezed the mouse tightly with her fingers, and her mind was suddenly mixed with many memories from the past. The dazzling lights in the five-star hotel, the ambiguous entangled voice, the two naked figures, the feeling of the heart being tightly clenched, all rushed towards Xia YuQing.
Her breathing swiftly rose, and a slight sweat leaked from her forehead. Xia YuQing closed her eyes and bit her lip firmly, not to let herself fall into the memory of the past.
"Auntie, what's the matter with you?" Gu MingRui immediately stood up nervously. Although he was young, he knew that Xia YuQing is hurting, and because of fear and concern, crystal tears filled his eyes.
When Xia YuQing turned her head and saw Gu MingRui's tears, she regained her senses. Her unconscious behavior did not expect to cause Xiao Baozi's reaction. She immediately stood up, took a tissue from her hand and pressed it on Gu MingRui's eyes: "What's the matter? Why are you crying?"
"Waaa..." The little bun suddenly cried, choking intermittently: "Just... Auntie... scared me."
"It's okay, it's okay." Xia YuQing felt uncomfortable watching him cry, and immediately explained: "Auntie just remembered some bad things."
"Oh." Gu MingYu choked and stopped crying, but his eyes were red, as if he had been abused.
Xia YuQing kissed him affectionately on his forehead, who knew that Xiao Baozi's face turned red when he got up, like a tomato. Xia YuQing couldn't help but remember the fact that Xiao Baozi did not have a mother, but it just made her cherished Xiao Baozi more in her heart. After coaxing Xiao Baozi to sleep, Xia YuQing continued to look at the computer.
Although with Gu YeTing’s acceptance, there is no need to worry about the rent for the time being but sending someone under the fence is not a long-term solution. What is more, there are more important things waiting for her to do.
Xia YuQing was not too distracted by the olive branches thrown by other companies [1] in City A. She only targeted the Qin family.
Or... Gu family?
Xia YuQing looked at the information about the Qin family and Gu family on the computer, holding her glass. Unsure of the idea for a while and Mo TianQing's call popped in.
"Dear." The warm tone as always.
"En..." Xia YuQing looked at the job offers on the computer, but there was no Gu and Qin, so she inevitably replied a little unwillingly.
"What's the matter?" Mo TianQing laughed and teased her: "You're so tired after the fact that you've had a new love just after you've returned home?"
"Can you be purer!" Xia YuQing smiled helplessly, Mo TianQing’s mind was still the same.
Mo TianQing on the other side of the phone smiled more: "Anyway, have you settled in China? Why don't you call me?"
"Huh..." Xia YuQing hesitated for a while: "Well..."
"That's it?" Mo TianQing asked suspiciously: "No explanations?"
The explanations is certainly not there, Xia YuQing smiled helplessly, but if she told her that she was now living in Gu YeTing’s house, that girl would definitely scold her for daydreaming.
"It's still a matter of work. There are too few design companies in China that can compare to Qin's. Gu's is a good choice, but I don't have enough confidence to be recruited by Gu's."
"Well, that's what I'm calling about." Mo TianQing smiles over the phone, and her tone is rather smug.
"What's the matter?" Xia YuQing became curious.
After smiling enough, Mo TianQing said, "When you went to China, I forgot to tell you. Gu family made their fortune by design at the very beginning. After so many years, they still have not abandoned what they are best at."
"So what?" Xia YuQing was still weak: "I did not receive Gu's offer letter here."
"So, this is what I want to tell you," Mo TianQing seemed to change her posture: "I heard from a friend who works at Gu said that Gu is now hiring designers. Although your reputation abroad is great, Gu has always focused only on ability."
"If the mountain does not come, I will be the mountain.[2]” Xia YuQing’s eyes lit up suddenly.
Xia YuQing didn't worry anymore, and after talking on the phone with Mo TianQing, she directly sent her resume to the Gu’s company.
At night, the first person to come back was Young Master Gu ChenChuan, with an enchanting woman next to him, who was the type that Gu ChenChuan had always liked.
"This is?" The woman looked at Xia YuQing with a hostile look, as if Xia YuQing would snatch Gu ChenChuan away in the next second.
Xia YuQing felt somewhat troublesome, so she didn't answer, and she turned her attention back to her computer. Gu ChenChuan’s arms around the woman's waist suddenly tightened, and he whispered something that Xia YuQing hadn't heard clearly. Then the woman laughed, and the two of them went upstairs.
Xia YuQing immediately knew what the two people were doing when they went upstairs. Gu YeTing was the last one to come back. When he came back, Xia YuQing was reading in the living room, and she was preparing to take some domestic exams. Although her abilities abroad have been recognized, domestic designers still need some domestic certificates.
When Gu YeTing first entered the living room, he was in a grumpy mood. After he saw her, he asked: "Gu ChenChuan is here again?"
What does he mean again?
"Is there any problem?" Xia Yuqin looked up from the book. Could it be that Gu ChenChuan and Gu YeTing were at odds? Why would Gu YeTing react like this when Gu ChenChuan came back?
Gu YeTing pulled his tie and said impatiently: "Next time you see him, just throw him out."
"Ah!" Xia Yuqin was even more surprised. Even if Gu ChenChuan has his own house, it shouldn't be a big deal to live here once in a while.
Gu YeTing seemed to see Xia YuQing’s thoughts and sneered, "He took his female companion?"
"En." Xia YuQing nodded blankly but didn't know how Gu YeTing knew.
"That's why he is not allowed to come in." Gu YeTing emphasized.
