Yan Hua dares not to say anything, fearing that Lang Cha finds out the thing between her and Lang Ruoxian. Lang Ruoxian brings Gungun over and puts him on the ground, "Gungun, be a good boy and go to tell the house maid that I haven"t eaten supper yet."
"Is Uncle hungry?"
Gungun looks up to ask.
Lang Ruoxian laughs, "Yeah, I am hungry."
"I am going!" Saying that, Gungun leaves.
Lang Cha stands up, "Follow me to the study first."
"Okay, Grandpa." Lang Ruoxian supports him.
Yan Hua seizes the opportunity to take Gungun back to the room. To be honest, she is afraid to face Lang Ruoxian. If she feels nothing about him, it is surely okay. Yet, she can"t deceive herself. She likes the man indeed.
Maybe she doesn"t like him deeply enough, but she knows this man is special to her.
"Mommy?" Gungun sees her not talking, so he carries a toy car to Yan Hua"s arms.
Yan Hua rubs her son"s round head, "Let"s go! Let me give you a shower!"
It"s more than ten o "clock. Lang Ruoxian sends her a message.
"Open the door."
Seeing the three rude words, Yan Hua wants to roll her eyes but she gets off the bed without hesitation, putting on shoes to open the door.
Seeing that the man is standing at the door while twitching his lips, she feels a bit angry about herself.
Lang Ruoxian walks in. Yan Hua looks at him helplessly, "Can"t you be careful?"
"Be careful about what?" The man comes near her.
Yan Hua takes a step back, "Be careful about the consequence."
"I am very careful now." Lang Ruoxian hugs her in light of his long arms.
Before Yan Hua resists, he releases her and takes out the key ring from his pocket, "Is this yours?"
"No." Yan Hua looks at it, "I don"t use key rings."
Lang Ruoxian puts it back. Yan Hua asks, "Where did you find it?"
"It was not me who found it but a friend of Huang Rong. She is called Xue…"
"Xue Juan." Yan Hua knows who she is, "I happened to run into her. She may think it is mine."
Lang Ruoxian touches her face. Yan Hua turns her head to the other side, "Keep your hands to yourself."
"I touch you with only one hand." The man smiles and then suddenly approaches her to give a kiss.
Yan Hua is about to hit him when Lang Ruoxian retreats to the door and opens it, "Good night, my… baby."
"You rogue!" Yan Hua closes the door.
The word baby makes her so excited and nervous.
"Don"t ever feel that there"s anything wrong with yourself." Fei Ying"s words are lingering around her ears.
"For a man like Lang Ruoxian, as long as he is willing to show love for a woman, there won"t be any woman who can say no to him. Hence… Girl! Fall for him!"
Yan Hua covers her face and buries her head into the pillow.
March 3 is Gungun"s birthday. On the early morning of the day, Lang Cha asks everyone to come back.
"What"s wrong with you?" Seeing that Lang Li keeps rubbing his forehead, Lang Cha feels that he doesn"t look well.
Lang Li shakes his head, "Maybe I have been not resting well. It"s okay."
Deng Jingjing lowers her head to take a mouthful of bird"s nest, raising her head with a smile, "You have been back home quite late at night recently and I don"t see you in the daytime. What are you doing?"
"Didn"t I tell you about it? Playing cards with a few friends." Lang Li looks at her and feels surprised.
He hasn"t watched his wife carefully for long. It seems that she becomes much more beautiful. Even her skin becomes fairer.
"Be careful. You are not young anymore. Don"t get ill for being too tired." Deng Jingjing gets up to pour him a bowl of porridge.
Lang Li finds that even his wife"s hands become more beautiful so he can"t help asking, "Have you been doing some skincare treatment?"
"Heh! I have been doing that all the time." Deng Jingjing covers her mouth, "You used to say that I might as well live in the beauty salon."
Lang Cha looks at them and shakes his head, "Remember to come back early tonight to celebrate for Gungun"s birthday."
Yan Hua also finds that Deng Jingjing has been changed. She is a woman. Unlike Lang Li, she doesn"t feel she becomes beautiful only. In her eyes, Deng Jingjing looks so smitten, as if…
As if she is in love?
Upon thinking of that, Yan Hua is startled.
A bowl of bird"s nest is slightly pushed to her. Lang Ruoxian looks at her.
"Don"t mind others. Have the bird"s nest." The man says in a low voice.
Yan Hua looks at him with a weird face and drinks the bird"s nest with her mind full of stuff. The next noon, she goes to a club with Fei Ying and Chen Hong to celebrate Gungun"s birthday with the three kids.
"Gungun, what present did you receive yesterday?" Fei Ying asks Gungun teasingly, "Did you get a lot of red packets?"
Gungun blinks his eyes and then watches Yan Hua.
"What else can it be?" Yan Hua shrugs her shoulders, "They all gave him money."
"So did Lang Ruoxian?" Fei Ying doesn"t believe it.
Yan Hua rolls her eyes, "Only he didn"t."
"The red packet that he will give must be a big one." Fei Ying says, "By no means can he miss such a good opportunity."
Seriously, if he wins the kid"s heart, he can surely win the heart of the kid"s mother…
"Gungun, happy birthday!" Mingxi carries a big box and puts it in front of Gungun.
Chen Hong says confidently, "It"s selected by Mingxi. Although it is no match for a red packet, it is absolutely suitable for Gungun to play!"
"I can play with Gungun, using our hands and brains." Mingxi says with a shy face. After being raised for a few months, he finally looks like a normal six-year-old kid.
He has a red face and even becomes taller. Wearing the haute couture clothes bought by Chen Hong, he looks like a kid from a rich family now.
"Gungun, this is a present from me!" Xiaojiu kisses Gungun and then puts on a bracelet on his wrist.
"My daughter made it herself." Fei Ying says smilingly, "Gungun"s zodiac sign is Dragon, so we chose two gold dragon beads, which are padauk beads blessed by monks in Giant Buddhist Temple.
Yan Hua smiles at them, "Thank you. I"ll not pay much attention to courtesy. Your kindness has been well received."
"That"s right. We are close friends." Chen Hong sees three kids playing aside, starting to sigh, "Speaking of thanking, I must thank you both. If it were not that you asked me to join the foundation, I wouldn"t have a son now."
She stares at Mingxi, "The kid is really nice! My parents were worried that we couldn"t raise him well, but now I think that"s not a problem at all."
As a saying goes, a child is father to the man. Although one"s character is greatly affected by the growing environment, some things are inherent and unable to change.
"Oh right!" Something occurs to Fei Ying, "I got a case for help. Do you want to have a look?"
"A workplace hara.s.sment?" Yan Hua takes over the doc.u.ment.
Fei Ying nods her head, "Keep reading. It"s worse than that."
"The girl entered a company for internship after graduation and got hara.s.sed by her supervisor, and yet dared not to say anything. Her supervisor thought she was timid so he directly intoxicated her and slept with her."
Chen Hong says, "Pah. Sc.u.m bag!"
Yan Hua is surprised at the remark on the back, "Lang Consortium?"
"Exactly!" Fei Ying tilts her head to look at her, "It"s your family"s company. This manager has been demoted recently and transferred to a subsidiary company. I don"t know whether he has made any mistake."
"That girl is pregnant now. She is from other places and dares not to tell her family, so she turned to the manager. However, he didn"t admit but scolded her." Chen Hong sneers, "Now she has no other choices but to seek help from us."
Yan Hua is a bit speechless after reading the doc.u.ment, "So she only wants us to help her give birth to the baby and find a job?"
"Isn"t it ridiculous?" Chen Hong is angry with her cowardice, "Shouldn"t the sc.u.mbag be responsible for her? And she should make a big fuss about that."
Fei Ying sighs, "If she were capable of that, she wouldn"t need to stand hara.s.sment for that long and get raped in the end."
"Shall we take the case?"
"You call!" Chen Hong says, "After all, it"s your family"s company. Should this thing become serious, it may affect the company."
Fei Ying nods her head, "Do you need to ask Lang Ruoxian first?"
"No need." Yan Hua signs on the doc.u.ment, "We"ll help her."
However, she still needs to tell Lang Ruoxian about it, but Lang Ruoxian won"t come back tonight. Yan Hua decides to go to the company and asks him face to face about the solution on this.
"Miss, who are you looking for?" Upon entering the lobby, Yan Hua is stopped by the receptionists.
When seeing clearly her face, the two receptionists are surprised and then say excitedly, "Mrs. Lang! Are you coming here to find Mr. Lang? Please take the lift over there and you will directly get to the floor where Mr. Lang is."
"Thank you." Yan Hua twitches her mouth.
When she turns around to leave, she can hear two people talking.
"Oh my G.o.d! I see her in person now…"
"She looks much more beautiful than her photos. I bet that she doesn"t have any plastic surgery."
Yan Hua doesn"t know that by the time she walks out of the lift, all the employees know the Second Young Mistress of the Lang Family who becomes rich for her child comes to the company…
"Yan Hua!" At the door of the lift, Xue Juan shouts at her with a smile.
"Are you here to receive me?" Yan Hua looks around.
Xue Juan hastens to shake her head, "No, I am not qualified to do that. I just come by to say hi after hearing you are coming here."
"Oh…" Yan Hua feels her words quite strange, but she doesn"t think much, "You heard me coming? Who said that?"
"Heh! All the employees in the company know that." The moment that Xue Juan said that, Lang Ruoxian trots to them.
She hastens to stand aside. Lang Ruoxian walks to Yan Hua"s front and looks her up and down, "Why didn"t you pick up my call?"
"I have time anyway, so I come here." Yan Hua asks, "Does it bother you?"
"Of course not. Let"s go to my office." He looked Yan Hua up and down to see whether anything wrong happened to her; Otherwise, she wouldn"t come to the company so suddenly.
He finds that everything is okay with her so he is finally rest a.s.sured. They walk by Xue Juan together. Xue Juan clenches her fists and then doesn"t leave until she sees them enter the office.
"Xue Juan!" The colleague in the office winks at her, "I hear that you know the Young Mistress of the Lang Family?"
"Yeah, I met her while I was traveling abroad."
Her colleague comes near her, "Is it easy to get along with her?"
"She is quite nice." Xue Juan looks at her, "Why do you care so much about her?"
"I am doing for your own good." Her colleague lowers her voice, "Isn"t Mr. Lang courting you?"
Xue Juan stares at her, "What are you talking about?"
With her face turning red, she says embarra.s.sedly, "Why would Mr. Lang court me?"
"Why is it impossible? Did he just give you a present?" The colleague makes a gesture, "Many people saw that. An expensive key ring."
