Translator: 549690339

When he went to the company the next day, he happened to meet Chen Cheng, who had just gotten off the bus and was rushing over.

Chen Cheng’s chest heaved up and down violently from the intense running just now. When she saw an ran, she called out breathlessly, ” “Sister, Sister Gu.”

Anran nodded and asked lightly, ” is your home far from the company? ”

It wasn’t easy for her to catch her breath. Chen Cheng nodded and said, “It’s a little far.” In this era where housing prices were sky-high, she was a foreign worker. Not to mention buying a house, she would have to rent a house in the suburbs a few rings away, and her company happened to be located in the city center. As a result, she had to be greedy every day and go back in the dark after work.

Anran didn’t ask any more questions. She looked at the time and only said, ” “Go up. If you don’t go up now, you’ll have wasted your time.” With that, she took the lead and walked towards the elevator.

The two of them had just arrived at the entrance of the company when the girl at the front desk saw Anran smile at her and call her sister Gu. Then, when she saw Chen Cheng walking over from behind Anran, she looked at her with a little sympathy.

This change was naturally noticed by Anran and Chen Cheng. The two of them exchanged a look, and Anran turned to the front desk girl and asked, ” “What’s wrong? What happened?”

The front desk girl smiled awkwardly and only said, ” “You’ll know when you enter.”

Anran glanced at her and didn’t ask any more questions. She went straight to the office lobby.

Only then did the two of them go in. Ling Lin’s sharp eyes spotted them and she quickly stood up. With a smile on her face, she walked over to Anran and Chen Cheng with a hint of provocation and disdain. She glanced at Anran, who was standing in front of her, and looked past her to look directly at Chen Cheng, who was standing behind Anran.”I think you’ve wasted your time coming here today.” Looking at the information and documents in her hands, he sneered and said, ” You weren’t here yesterday afternoon, but the director had already announced that she was in a hurry. &Quot; he deliberately paused, looked at her, and said, ” “You’re fired!”

Hearing this, Chen Cheng glared at her hatefully. Her hand that was holding the documents subconsciously clenched tightly. Her tightly pursed lips trembled slightly because of anger.

Just as Ling Lin was feeling a little arrogant and proud, Anran, who was standing behind her, directly asked her colleagues who were standing to the side and watching, ” “Is the director here yet?”

“He’s already here.” Someone replied.

......

Anran nodded and turned to look at Ling Lin. &Quot; &Quot; I said I wouldn’t let you drive her away. Also, I said I would hold you responsible for smashing the model in the sample room yesterday. &Quot;

Ling Lin was disdainful. She laughed contemptuously, not taking her words seriously at all.”Do you think the director will listen to you? don’t forget who my father is. The director gives su Yicheng face, but will he ignore my father’s face? What a joke!”

Anran ignored her. She turned to look at Chen Cheng and said, ” “Wait for me at your seat.” Then, he walked directly to Huang Dexing’s office.

Knock, knock, knock. &Quot; An ran knocked on Huang Dexing’s door.

Soon, Huang Dexing’s voice could be heard from inside. &Quot; come in. &Quot;

When he opened the door and went in, he saw Huang Dexing wearing glasses and looking at something on his computer.

Anran didn’t even have time to put down her briefcase. She directly walked to Huang Dexing’s desk and stood there. &Quot; director. &Quot;

Only then did Huang Dexing raise his head. Seeing Anran standing in front of him, he smiled and said, ” Anran, is there something you need me for? ”

“Did the director fire Chen Cheng?” Without beating around the bush, an ran asked directly.

“Um.” Huang Dexing was stunned for a moment, then laughed. He took off the glasses on his nose and continued, ” “You know Ling Lin’s identity. Even if I don’t give face to the monk, I have to give face to the Buddha. After all, Ling Lin is Mayor Ling’s daughter, and I have to take into account Mayor Ling’s face. “As for Chen Cheng, I know she’s a very good employee. With her, our ‘sincerity’ will definitely be able to reach higher heights. I also feel sorry for firing her, but for the sake of the company, we have to consider the big picture. Ling Lin is the mayor’s daughter after all. If we offend her, it’ll undoubtedly be disrespecting the mayor. So, Anran, for everyone’s benefit, I can only fire Chen Cheng. I hope you can understand this.”

Anran looked at him without blinking. Her face was expressionless, and she didn’t say a word.

Seeing her like this, Huang Dexing added, ” I will write a recommendation letter for Chen Cheng to another company. With Chen Cheng’s ability and talent in design, no matter where she is, I believe she is gold and will shine. &Quot; With that, Huang Dexing walked out from behind the desk and walked to Anran. He said, ” &Quot; let’s just leave it at that. Don’t take it to heart. I’ll hire another assistant for you. &Quot;

“If the director insists on driving Chen Cheng, then fire me as well.” Anran looked at him and said indifferently, ”

&Quot; you ... &Quot; Huang Dexing looked at her and was a little stunned. It took him a while to react, and he looked at Anran and said, ” “Anran, you ... You’re making things difficult for me.”

&Quot; I didn’t. I just hope that the company can treat every employee fairly, not because of someone’s powerful background. We’re all employees of the company, and we all want to be treated fairly. If a company can’t treat every employee fairly, then there’s nothing to miss about such a company. &Quot; Anran looked at him and said with a serious expression.

An ran, you, you’re forcing me? ” Huang Dexing looked at her with a troubled expression. He couldn’t offend Ling Lin, but he couldn’t offend Anran either. The technology City project was about to begin, and according to reliable sources, su Yicheng was the main person in charge of this project, and Anran was su Yicheng’s wife. If he offended her, he would undoubtedly offend su Yicheng. Even if he were to ” sincerely ” cooperate with ” Xudong ” and Tong Wenhai in the future, it wouldn’t be of any use. If su Yicheng didn’t agree, then all his efforts would have been in vain.

&Quot; director, you’re being too serious. I just want the company to treat Chen Cheng reasonably. She didn’t do anything wrong. It’s too unfair for her to think that someone else said something and then fire her for no reason. &Quot; Anran said, ” besides, what happened yesterday wasn’t Chen Cheng’s fault at all. It was Linglin who wanted to destroy the model first and was caught red-handed by Chen Cheng in public. If it was wrong to protect the company’s property like this, then who would stand up for him in the future? If the director insists on firing Chen Cheng, then the company’s actions are too disappointing.”

Huang Dexing was silent and didn’t speak for a long time.

Huang Dexing’s office was big enough with a large floor-to-ceiling window. The office was located on the 20th floor in the city center. From here, one could see the prosperity of Jiang city.

After standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a while, Huang Dexing turned his head to look at Anran and said, ” “I promise you, I won’t fire Chen Cheng.”

Anran smiled faintly. &Quot; director, then what about Linglin trying to destroy the model? should you give me and Chen Cheng an explanation for this? ”

Hearing this, Huang Dexing frowned unhappily. He looked at Anran and said, ” &Quot; Anran, I’ve already taken a step back. You have to put yourself in my shoes and think for me. After all, Ling Lin’s identity is special, and I can’t completely ignore Mayor Ling’s face. So, I won’t pursue this matter. As for the template, I guarantee that it won’t be damaged at all.”

An ran was silent. She understood what Huang Dexing meant and understood his difficulties. After a long while, he opened his mouth and said, ” &Quot; I understand. Thank you, director. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first. &Quot;

Huang Dexing nodded. &Quot; you may leave. &Quot;

When she went out again, Ling Lin had already called security, who was now staring at Chen Cheng as she tidied up her things.

Anran stepped forward, glanced at Ling Lin, and asked the security guard to go back. She said, ” “Chen Cheng doesn’t need to leave because the director has already promised not to fire her.”

“How could it be!” Ling Lin looked at her in disbelief.

Anran didn’t say much to her. She just glanced at her indifferently, then turned to Chen Cheng and said, ” &Quot; come to my office later. We still need to discuss the changes we discussed in the template room yesterday. &Quot;

Chen Cheng was stunned. After a while, she nodded. &Quot; okay. &Quot;

“Hmph,” he snorted. Ling Lin couldn’t take it anymore and walked away with a cold snort.

Since there was no show to watch, the onlookers naturally dispersed.

Chen Cheng looked at Anran and thanked her in a low voice. &Quot; thank you. &Quot;

Anran glanced at her and didn’t say anything. She only nodded and turned to enter the office.

When she got off work, Anran was discussing the flaws and shortcomings of the design plan with Chen Cheng in the office. As time passed, she didn’t know that time had quietly slipped away. At this time, su Yicheng’s phone call came in, asking if she had finished work. He was on his way now and would be at the entrance of her company in a moment.

It was only then that Anran remembered that she had an appointment with her parents at youran cuisine. She looked at the time. Their appointment was at seven O ‘clock in the evening. There really wasn’t much time left for her to go from the company to youran cuisine.

&Quot; alright, ” he said to Chen Cheng, ” let’s call it a day. We’ll continue tomorrow if we can’t figure it out. &Quot; As he spoke, he packed up the things on the table and prepared to leave.

“Uh, something urgent tonight?” Seeing her anxious look, Chen Cheng asked curiously.

“Yes, I’m meeting my parents for dinner.” An ran gave a simple explanation and put the things into her briefcase as she spoke.

Chen Cheng nodded and didn’t say anything more. She packed her things and left the office.

When Anran left with her briefcase, she saw that Chen Cheng was still thinking about something in the office lobby. Almost everyone in the office had left, leaving Chen Cheng alone. She looked a little lonely, so she said, ” “Chen Cheng, you should go back early too.”

Chen Cheng nodded at her. &Quot; I understand. &Quot;

Since they didn’t have much time, Anran didn’t say anything more to her and went downstairs with her briefcase. When she walked out of the company building with her bag, she saw su Yicheng’s car parked on the side of the road in front of the building. When he saw her coming out, he opened the door and got out of the car. He took the briefcase from her hand with a faint smile and put it in the back seat of the car. Then, he opened the door of the front passenger seat for Anran to get in. After that, he walked around the front of the car and got in. Without staying any longer, he started the car and drove away.

By the time they arrived at youran cuisine, it was almost 7:10 a. M. Anran called her parents, but they didn’t answer.

Fortunately, this was yijiao’s shop, so they didn’t have to worry about not having enough seats. As soon as they entered the main door, manager Zhang, who was standing in the lobby, recognized them and greeted them with a smile, ” “Assistant su, Mrs. Su.”

Anran smiled at him. &Quot; manager Zhang. &Quot;

Without waiting for Anran and su Yicheng to ask, manager Zhang spoke first, ” &Quot; President su has already told the kitchen that the private room for tonight will be at the floral lingo Pavilion. Old master su, Mr. Gu, and Mrs. Gu have already arrived. President su is greeting them inside. He asked me to inform you to go there directly. She has already made arrangements for the rest. &Quot;

Su Yicheng nodded. &Quot; Okay, thank you. &Quot;

He took Anran directly to the floral lingo Pavilion. Before they even entered, they could hear laughter coming from inside. The atmosphere was obviously quite good, and it wasn’t as awkward or nervous as they had imagined.

The two of them looked at each other with a faint smile on their lips and nodded. Su Yicheng knocked on the door, then pushed the door open and said with a smile, ” “I’m sorry, we’re late.”

In the room, Grandpa su sat at the head of the table, and on both sides sat father su and mother su, as well as father Gu and mother Gu. Su yijiao sat next to mother su. All of them had smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

“Brother, sister-in-law.” Yijiao stood up and held an ran’s hand enthusiastically.

Anran smiled faintly at her, then turned around and said with a little apology, ” “Dad, mom, Grandpa, I’m so sorry. I worked overtime tonight and forgot the time.”

“It’s okay, work is more important.” Qin Yun smiled and said, ” quickly sit down, quickly sit down. &Quot;

Anran nodded and sat down with su Yicheng.

“Alright, everyone’s here. Yijiao, arrange for the kitchen to serve the dishes.” Su Wen said to su yijiao with a light smile.

“Alright,” he said. Su Yicheng smiled coquettishly as he got up to open the door and said directly to the waiter waiting at the door, ” “Serve the dishes,”

The waiter received the order and quickly ordered the kitchen to serve the dishes from this side.

After taking a sip of tea, su Wenqing said in a slightly embarrassed tone, ” “I’ve been busy with the military exercise recently, so I haven’t been able to sit down and have a good chat with everyone. The truth is, I’m ashamed.”

&Quot; you’re too kind, in-law. You’re cultivating talents for the country. It’s a really big deal, so of course you have to put it first. &Quot; Gu Hengwen said.

&Quot; you’re too kind. We’re more like in-laws. Nurturing knowledgeable talents for the country is something that society needs urgently. &Quot; Su Wenqing said courteously.

&Quot; hey, in-law Yingluo. &Quot; Gu Hengwen still wanted to say something, but he was interrupted.

Qin Yun, who was standing at the side, felt a headache from their polite words. She had always liked to be direct, so she interrupted them, ” “Isn’t it annoying that you’re all being so polite? both of you are amazing. One of you is nurturing intellectual talents for the country, while the other is nurturing talents who can go to the battlefield and protect the country. Both of you are amazing, so don’t be so humble. Today, we’re here to talk about ah Zhen and an ran’s meeting, not to hear your modesty and politeness.” As she spoke, she turned to Lin xiaofen, who was sitting opposite her, and said, ” “Don’t you agree, in-law?”

Lin xiaofen chuckled, nodded, and said, ” “Yes, yes, yes. In-law, you’re right.” As he spoke, he turned to look at Gu Hengwen with a smile on his face.

The dishes were served very quickly, and each dish was especially exquisite and delicious. The two families chatted and laughed without any awkwardness. Qin Yun pulled Lin xiaofen to talk about beauty and clothes. On the other side, Gu Hengwen and su Wenqing seemed to regret not meeting each other earlier. The two of them discussed their common interest in calligraphy and agreed on the spot that if they had time at the beginning of next month, they would go and explore the concept of the law together.

On the other hand, yijiao was around Anran’s age, so su yijiao had a particularly good impression of Anran. Anran was soft and weak, and she was especially able to remember other people’s desire to protect her.

Su Yicheng put food in Anran’s bowl and whispered in her ear to remind her to eat something first.

Although everyone was chatting, they all saw su Yicheng’s thoughtfulness. Lin xiaofen turned her head to look at her husband, and her eyes seemed to say that he was right. Anran was just as lucky as she was to have found a person who truly treated them well.

Qin Yun looked at this scene and smiled faintly.

Then, as they chatted, they somehow talked about the key issue of pregnancy and childbirth. Qin Yun even looked at an ran’s stomach in a very ambiguous manner.

“An ran is pregnant?” Lin xiaofen asked, a little confused. Then, she turned her head and stared at Anran, asking, ” &Quot; Anran, are you really pregnant? ”

Anran still had a mouthful of food in her mouth, so when she heard her question, she choked and couldn’t help but cough. &Quot; cough, cough ... Cough, cough ... &Quot; her entire face was red from the coughing.

Su Yicheng quickly patted her back to help her calm her breathing. On the other side, su yijiao poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her.

After Anran finally stopped coughing and drank some tea to calm her breathing, she raised her head and saw both parents staring at her as if they were waiting for an answer.

Anran blushed and shook her head. &Quot; “No, no, I’m not pregnant ...” She said.

Hearing that, Qin Yun laughed, ” that’s right, how could it be so fast? they haven’t been married for long, how could they have a child so soon? ”

Qin Yun’s words seemed to be true. They had only been married for less than two months. Even if they had a child, they would only notice it two months later.

“Yes, yes, how can we have a child so quickly?” Lin xiaofen also chimed in. However, when it came to children, she also wanted to have a grandson. She said bluntly, ” “But you two must remember not to use contraception. If you’re pregnant, you must give birth to it for me. Don’t always think about work. The two of you are not young anymore. It’s not early to have a child now.”

She was a little embarrassed and protested, ” mom ... &Quot;

Lin xiaofen furrowed her brows in displeasure and said, ” “An ran, don’t tell me you still don’t want to give birth!” That would not do. She was going to be 30 soon, and it was already considered late marriage and late childbirth. If she had another child in a few years, she would really become an elderly woman, and the risk was too high.

Upon hearing this, several pairs of eyes on the table all looked in her direction, as if waiting for her answer.

“Pfft.” Su yijiao couldn’t help but laugh. She leaned over to Anran’s ear and whispered, ” “Sister-in-law, you must be under a lot of pressure.” The elders of the two families and the five elders were all waiting to report their grandsons and carry their great-grandsons.

Anran blushed with shame. The pressure was indeed huge. Besides, she didn’t say that she didn’t want to have children, but it wasn’t up to her to decide whether she would get pregnant or not. She turned to su Yicheng for help, only to see him still looking at her with a faint smile, with no intention of helping at all.

At this moment, Anran felt so helpless that she wanted to cry but had no tears. Today, the parents of the two families were clearly meeting for a meal. How did it become a discussion about whether she wanted to have children or not?

Anran laughed dryly. Even she felt that the smile on her face at that moment was a little fake. &Quot; I, I didn’t say that I don’t want to have children. We, we will continue to work hard. &Quot;

“Hahaha!” Su yijiao couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst out laughing. Looking at Anran’s embarrassed face, which was as red as fire, she asked, ” “Sister-in-law, how are you guys going to work hard?”

Anran’s face turned even redder, and she was really so embarrassed that she was about to cry. If there was a hole in the ground right now, she would immediately jump in and never come back up again.

Su Yicheng then reached out to hold her hand and pulled her into his arms. He glanced at yijiao and scolded her with a smile, ” “You’re so rude.”

Yi Jiao playfully stuck out her tongue at him with an unconcealable smile on her face.

Qin Yun and the others finally came back to their senses. After hearing Anran’s answer, the worries in their hearts disappeared. However, when they saw their daughter-in-law’s extremely shy face, they looked at yijiao and said, ” “That’s right, yijiao, you can’t be so rude. Since everyone is here today, you should talk about your personal problems. You’re not young anymore, how long do you want to stay in this business?”

At this point, su yijiao couldn’t help but have a headache, and she protested, ” “Mom, we’re here today to talk about my brother and sister-in-law. Why are you talking about me? don’t get your priorities wrong!”

Without waiting for Qin Yun to speak, su Yicheng, who was standing beside her, said with a faint smile, ” &Quot; it’s okay. Your sister-in-law and I are more concerned about this issue. Just tell us. You’re welcome. &Quot;

Su yijiao turned her head and glared at him. How could she have forgotten such an important thing? he was a Smiling Tiger!

All in all, apart from the fact that Anran was a little depressed about the topic of childbirth, the two families had a relatively Happy Meal tonight.

Because they had to drive back later, everyone only drank beverages and didn’t touch alcohol during the meal. After the meal was over, Anran and su Yicheng sent Lin xiaofen and Gu Hengwen back, while father su and the others had staff waiting outside, so they didn’t have to worry.

After sending the Gu family’s parents back to the apartment, Lin xiaofen took su Yicheng’s hand and said seriously, ” &Quot; ah Luo, I’ll leave Anran in your hands from now on. You don’t need to be rich or powerful, but you must make her happy and happy. &Quot; This was the simplest and best wish a mother could give to her daughter.

Su Yicheng understood the hope in her words, and he reached out to hold her hand tightly. He glanced at Anran, nodded, and said with certainty, ” “Mom, don’t worry. I will!”
