All of a sudden, I want to know more about him.
Ji Xiaohan"s work suddenly became busier than before. Previously, he always tried to reduce his daily work until he was done during the day, when he would be free to accompany his children and Tang Youyou.
He gave Tang Youyou a feeling that he wasn"t as busy as the rumors said, but what Tang Youyou didn"t know was that in order to be able to eat with her and the kids as soon as possible, Ji Xiaohan even spent his lunch break on work. Before, he had an hour of rest, but now, he only sat on the sofa in his office and slept for ten minutes before getting up to work.
However, he didn"t say a word to Tang Youyou about what he was doing behind her back. He didn"t want her to worry about him, and he didn"t want to lose every moment he spent with his children.
He had missed their loveliest childhood, so he wanted to spare more time to mend the children, to make them feel more fatherly.
However, there was no time to delay what happened at the company this time. Ji Xiaohan had to spend all his time to deal with it, so this was the first time he called Tang Youyou and told her to come home a little later and not to wait for him to eat.
When Tang Youyou received his call, she was slightly surprised. His work had suddenly become busy, so she really wasn"t used to it.
Perhaps Tang Youyou was used to him coming home at night and having meals with him, then spending the warm time with her children before going to bed. Tang Youyou thought that such days would continue, but she didn"t expect his work to suddenly become so busy.
She took care of him on the phone and hung up.
When she went downstairs and saw the two elders and the children sitting on the sofa, she softly said, "He said that he would work overtime tonight. He might not return to eat. Let"s eat first!"
The old lady frowned. "Did he tell you something happened at the company? Didn"t he work at night before?"
Old Master Ji who wore reading gla.s.ses looked up at Tang Youyou, seemingly waiting for her to speak.
Tang Youyou whispered, "I asked him, but he didn"t tell me in detail. He just said that the company has urgent matters to deal with."
The old lady turned around and looked at the old man: "Call Xiaohan tomorrow and chat with him. If it"s work matters, you have a lot of experience, give him some advice so he won"t have to take a detour."
The old man nodded, "Alright, I"ll call him tomorrow and ask. Actually, he"s already learnt all that I need to teach him. I don"t have anything to teach him."
Hearing that, the old lady immediately smiled proudly, "Of course, we, Xiaohan, have been smart since we were young, and have an amazing memory. His management skills have long surpa.s.sed yours, you can"t refuse it even if you want to."
When the old tutor heard this, he couldn"t help but laugh, "Yes, I know that in your eyes, no one can compare to your grandson."
Tang Youyou heard the two elders" acknowledgment of Ji Xiaohan"s abilities, and a small sense of satisfaction rose in her heart. She thought that if she were to marry such an outstanding man, it would be something enviable for her.
Actually, when Tang Youyou was at the company, she heard many people praising Ji Xiaohan"s management ability. He was young, experienced in handling affairs, and had strong means. He was truly a rare business genius.
Furthermore, he was a dark horse in the business war, and his future was immeasurable.
Tang Youyou suddenly felt that her understanding of Ji Xiaohan was too superficial. All she knew was that he was handsome, that he was good to his children, that he was a good and qualified father, and that he was filial to his children, setting them a good example. Other than that, Tang Youyou found that she didn"t know anything else about him.
She didn"t even try to understand how he worked at the company all day. She only knew the tip of the iceberg about what kind of environment he was facing and everything about his company. Other than the Wishful Thinking Design Company that she worked for, she had only heard of one other subsidiary company.
Tang Youyou was extremely ashamed. She was not a qualified girlfriend at all. All she knew was to busy herself with her work, but she knew too little about her husband.
Hearing that Ji Xiaohan wasn"t coming back, the two kids beside him also showed a disappointed expression.
When they returned from school, they were looking forward to the evening when they would be able to sit at the table and eat di
er.
At this moment, inside the Ji"s Group"s headquarters, in the CEO"s office, Ji Xiaohan was lifting a cup of coffee to refresh his spirit.
He turned the big black chair to the gla.s.s and looked out through the bright gla.s.s into the distance.
Around his building, all the buildings were very low as if he was stepping on them. The feeling of standing on top of a mountain made Ji Xiaohan"s thinking even sharper and wiser.
The lights in the distance flickered. At this moment, it was already past nine o"clock.
At this hour, the two children should take a shower and get ready for bed. They had cla.s.s tomorrow.
Tang Youyou would be sitting gently on their little bed, holding a storybook and telling them fairy tales. Or, she would be softly singing a sleeping song to coax them to sleep.
Ever since Tang Youyou"s ident.i.ty had been exposed to the light, the two kids seemed to have grown up and become more sensible.
Tang Xiaonai used to like sleeping with Tang Youyou, so she had to reach out to hug her before she could fall asleep. She didn"t feel safe at all.
But now, the two little fellows each had their own cute little bed and had gotten used to falling asleep by themselves. This was probably one of the steps for children to grow up.
However, every time Ji Xiaohan opened the door of the children"s room, he would feel heartache every time he saw his daughter"s tiny body curled up on the bed.
Parents are most afraid that their children will not be independent, but most afraid to let go and let them learn to be independent.
Ji Xiaohan half a year ago, he never thought that Ye Mo would have a child so early. He didn"t even think about marrying to find a woman, so he focused almost all of his energy on managing the company.
But now, Ji Xiaohan was completely worried about his father. Everything he did and thought about, he couldn"t leave these two children, for the children"s future, he treated his work more strictly, and he was also more ruthless towards himself. He wanted to help his children to lead a carefree life, and if anyone blocked his path, he would definitely not be polite.
Ji Xiaohan took a sip of his coffee. Somehow, he felt a deep longing.
Although he hadn"t seen her for only a day, why did he have the urge to go back home and hug that woman to sleep?
