Chapter 604: Gift Flowers? (1)

In the dark, Xiaye widened her eyes at his handsome face. She could not believe that he was saying these things!

“What do you think your child is? You make him or her sound like a burden. Father and Mother didn’t turn their backs on you. Instead, it’s you turning back on them. Besides, how are you sure that I’m bearing a daughter? What if it’s a son? Do you plan on not loving him?”

She got up at once and propped herself up to look at him.

“That’s not what I meant. I was just concerned that you’d be burdened with worry in the future. Sons are closer to their mothers… Your job won’t be easy in the future. If you don’t teach your son well, they could cause grand disasters. At least, we can pass our daughter to her future husband to watch over, just like you and me now.”

Master Mu was filled with all sorts of anxiety right now. Back then, before she was pregnant, he was looking forward to her being pregnant, but now that she was, he was hoping that…

Without a doubt, Master Mu was ridden with father-to-be mania.

“You really think so far ahead! Your son’s the one who’ll cause grand disasters! My son will definitely be an excellent man in the future. I want to send him for training in the army. It’d be best if he can serve for life and fulfill my unachieved dreams. If it’s a daughter, I won’t let her suffer all of that.”

“Wouldn’t your son be my son? Fine. Consider it a slip of the tongue. Anyway, the sun’s about to come up. Sleep a little more.”

…

When Xi Xiaye woke up once again, the sun was already up and bright. The man beside her was already gone and the pillow was cold too, but there were still remnants of his scent in the air.

When she tidied up and went downstairs, she realized he left very early in the morning. It was almost 11 a.m. right now, so the plan probably took off a long while ago.

Xi Xiaye was quite relaxed in the next few days. She would either go back to the Mu residence or the Shen residence while Ji Zitong remained closely by her side.

That evening, Xi Xiaye returned to Maple Residence earlier since she had work the next day and had to spend some time arranging the information. The meeting in the next morning would be to conclude the season’s report. Obviously, she had to be more well-planned.

When Ji Zitong sent her through the Maple Residence gates, Xi Xiaye suddenly said, “Zitong, you can go back earlier. Just wait for me at the office tomorrow.”

Ji Zitong would come over early in the morning every day. In fact, Xi Xiaye also understood that she stayed quite far away from Maple Residence. Since Glory World was in the middle of them both, there was no need for her to be exhausted rushing from end to end.

“Don’t worry, Director Xi. Manager Ah Mo has arranged a place for me to stay at the Grand Waves Apartment area. It’ll take less than 10 minutes to get here. I was just going to pack my things and move over tonight. That way, it’d be more convenient.”

Ji Zitong got to know Xi Xiaye much more and found that she was not as cold as before. In fact, she was rather friendly.

“Mmm, go back earlier then. I’ll tell Ah Mo to get someone to help you move your things.”

“Thank you, Director Xi. I only have one box, so I’ll do it myself. There’s no need to trouble them. I’ll leave now.”

Xi Xiaye nodded gently before Ji Zitong took a bow and slowly turned around.

Argh, she still had to send things over to that annoying man!

When she thought about this, Ji Zitong felt disgruntled. She opened the car door and turned to look at the paper bag on the front passenger seat for a long while before she sighed and started the car.

The car whizzed past like a hurricane and drove away from Maple Residence.

The night gradually fell and the entire City Z was lit up with streetlights. The whole city was engulfed in dazzling lights.

Inside the Deputy Chief’s office in the North Traffic Control Bureau of the city.

Su Chen sat in his work chai, while a hand leisurely clipped the freshly lit cigarette and the other held a pen. He was scrawling on the document before him at a tremendous speed. From time to time, he would take a drag with the heavy police coat simply draped over his shoulders. The weather at night was turning colder with each day.

He was very focused. Even Mu Yuchen admired this aspect of him, saying that Su Chen was truly the kind of person that made the distinction between personal and professional. When he worked, he would ignore everyone. If anyone disturbed him when he was concentrating on work, he would be very unhappy, but after work, he was up for fun.

As his secretary, Assistant He understood this habit very well, so whenever he knocked, he would be very careful and not dare be too loud in fear of disturbing the Deputy Chief who busy working at full focus inside.

A long pause after the knock, Su Chen calmly answered, “Come in!”

“Chief Su, there’s a lady named Ji Zitong asking for you outside!” Assistant He spoke very respectfully.

“Let her wait!” Su Chen said, and without even looking up, he flipped another page of the document and began to seriously browse and review it again.

“Okay, Chief Su! Right, Chief Su, with regards to the Bureau Chief’s son speeding and hitting someone, the Chief called again. He wants you to…” softly reminded Assistant He while carefully watching Su Chen’s expression.

“I can’t do anything about it. If anything happens and I’m targeted by the disciplinary board, will he take responsibility? Tell him to watch his spoiled child instead. The last time we got the other party to agree to resolve it privately after many negotiations, not only did he not learn from his lesson, but he did even worse this time. I would’ve punished him if someone like him were in my troop!” Su Chen did not wait for Assistant He to finish before he put on a stern face and spoke coldly. His handsome, steadfast face seemed a little sunken, terrifying Assistant He.

“But, Chief Su, the Bureau Chief said…”

“Tell him to go talk to our Bureau Chief himself!”

Master Su had some angry youth [1] blood in him. He had so many things to deal with on the daily. The fact that they kept looking for him annoyed him to no end. He really did not understand these people. How could they reason after hitting someone?

“The Bureau Chief is abroad for work and will only return next month, Chief Su. The Bureau Chief especially asked for you to handle this well. Well, Bureau Chief Yu and the Bureau Chief’s friendship goes a long way, so…”

“If that’s so, let the fellow be locked up for a few more days first.” Su Chen swiftly signed his name, and then closed the document. “Send me the files for drunk driving in the first half the year tomorrow. Our colleagues in the Publicity Department want us to help them out with a campaign. Pick a few important case studies and edit out some representative videos for a Powerpoint. Send it to me the day after tomorrow,” he instructed as he got up to tidy the table.

Assistant He nodded. “Okay, got it, Chief Su.”

“Okay, go home earlier.”

“Yes, Sir!” Assistant He responded and then slowly retreated.

Su Chen swiftly tidied his things to put into his black briefcase and then walked out of the office in huge strides.

He had just marched out of the office when he saw Ji Zitong sitting on the sofa waiting for him from a distance.

The sound of his leather shoes clacked against the shiny floor and immediately alerted Ji Zitong who was browsing through the Road Safety Manual.
