Su Xiaong ignored Eric’s question, closed her phone, and placed it on the bedside table.
She didn’t know when Yin Shixiu contacted Eric. Was it after his shower? Or while he was in the study?
Or perhaps when he went alone to the children’s room?
It’s difficult to imagine his state of mind, being angry with her but still calling Eric to wrap this matter up well.
He knows her too well, what she’s thinking or would do, he’s already seen through everything.
Is Shen Dawei important?
Not at all, but today’s incident, she experienced it firsthand, so she would not remain uninvolved.
If Shen Dawei were to be neglected by the school, this boy’s life might be ruined.
And she won’t feel good about it.
Su Xiaong took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to slip into the children’s room to be next to her husband, away from the sibling duo.
Prince Huang was holding her tightly, the dinosaur hat rubbing against her chin, feeling very soft.
Let’s talk about it tomorrow.
Tomorrow... Apologize properly, explain well, patiently, earnestly.
She wasn’t trying to be a hero, nor would she ever be one. No matter the circumstances, she would always put him and the children first.
This family is what she cares about most, cherishes the most, a blessing she earned in her past life and spends her luck on in this life to guard.
————
What made Xiao ng feel helpless was that she fell asleep with deep regret towards her husband, only to oversleep with the sibling duo the next morning.
By the ti she woke up, it was past eight.
Lily told her that Yin Shixiu had left for work at around seven.
Xiao ng sighed heavily.
She took a day off and didn’t go to the school either.
She hesitated at ho for quite a while before finally calling Yin Shixiu...
The phone rang several tis before it was answered,
"What is it."
Oh dear... His tone is so cold!
Su Xiaong cried in her heart, licked her lips, and said softly,
"I, I... Did you sleep well last night?"
As soon as she asked, Xiao ng regretted it! Such a long body, curled up on the children’s bed, how could he sleep well?!
"No, I was just asking casually. I’m worried about your back pain or sothing from sleeping..."
"..."
Yin Shixiu was in a remote eting at the mont, gently tapping the table with his index finger, listening to Su Xiaong’s hesitant mumbling.
"Uh... Did you have breakfast? Lily said you didn’t eat at ho..."
As Yin Shixiu listened, he didn’t hear anything important, and couldn’t help but say,
"I’m busy now."
"Oh! Then, then you’re busy, call later when you’re free."
"I might be busy all day today and might not be able to co back tonight either."
"..."
Xiao ng’s heart skipped a beat, crying even harder!
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now."
"Oh, then, let’s just leave it at that."
The call was already ended, Xiao ng blinked, stared at her phone for a while before exhaling heavily.
Busy...
It’s never been the reason for him to hang up on her, at least it has never been like this.
Last night, Xiao ng was adamantly saying she wasn’t wrong.
But today...
She couldn’t say it.
Yin Shixiu, such a husband, doesn’t exist a second in the world.
Being this angry, truly cares too much.
Xiao ng knew this well in her heart, that’s why she put all her thoughts into figuring out how to make her husband calm down, and she was confident that Yin Shixiu’s "busy" was just an excuse.
But the truth?
Yin Shixiu was indeed busy, very busy!
The governnt project in Beijing was in bidding these two days, and Yin Shixiu had been leading the team to prepare for more than two months.
All along, they had first-hand information, so they were very confident when bidding.
Yesterday, upon returning from Elder Zeng, getting his assurance made work matters more convenient.
Then, at around six in the morning, Elder Zeng called him.
The information Yin Family had wasn’t the latest.
Because of this change, the entire bidding plan had to be modified.
Early in the morning, Yin Shixiu went to the company, gathered the team, and held a remote eting.
There were less than forty-eight hours left before the official bid opened, and the team mbers looked at a thick stack of bid docunts, feeling hopeless.
The biggest competitor was the Rong Group, the company Yin Shixiu was most familiar with and always knew was the most troubleso.
And Yin Shiqing had a say in this governnt bidding project.
In other people’s eyes, it seed that Yin Family was certain to win the bid.
Only Yin Shixiu knew in his heart if Yin Family doesn’t present an impeccable bid, the project being handed to Rong Family was the obvious result.
"Otherwise... just give it up?"
Mary, seeing Yin Shixiu’s furrowed brow, thought he was troubled by the bid docunt andnt, and said softly.
The entire team’s nerves were tense at this mont; it’s a battle that had been waged months ago.
They had fought until now, no one wanted to give up voluntarily!
But...
The team’s leader was Yin Shixiu.
If the president said to give up, they could only sigh.
Yin Shixiu rubbed his brow and said to Mary, "It has nothing to do with the bid docunt, continue the eting."
With that, the computer screen in front of him lit up again.
Mary was suspicious, wondering if the president’s expression had anything to do with the little madam at ho?
Though, it was just a fleeting thought, quickly returning to the eting.
————
Su Xiaong decided!
It’s absolutely unacceptable to make Yin Shixiu angry to the point of staying overnight outside!
That would be an indelible stain on her life as a wife!
"Lily, teach , I want to prepare a loving dinner for my husband!"
Lily saw Madam so spirited, not at all discouraged by the marital discord, and couldn’t help but feel invigorated.
"Okay, Madam!"
"But we don’t have enough ingredients at ho, I’ll go to the supermarket to buy so more!"
Lily said, while Xiao ng quickly replied,
"I’ll go, I know what to buy, you stay here and keep an eye on Shuangshuang and Huanghuang."
Lily looked at the very enthusiastic Madam, smiled, and thought, it won’t be long before this ho returns to its usual warmth and harmony.
Xiao ng put on a heavy coat, carried a bag, and headed out the door!
Unexpectedly, she ran into Cherry who was just also pulling out of the neighborhood in her car.
"Where are you going?"
Cherry stopped her car by the side and asked.
Xiao ng was surprised, "Eh? Cherry... You didn’t go to school today either?"
Cherry nodded.
"I’m going to the supermarket to buy so stuff."
"It’s on the way, I’ll give you a lift."
Su Xiaong was even happier, didn’t think much, got into the car, and sat in the passenger seat, not noticing that Cherry wasn’t in good spirits.
"Where are you going?"
"eting so friends."
"Oh! So you’re going out to play!"
Xiao ng laughed.
Cherry didn’t respond, just ntioned yesterday’s incident,
"Has Shen Dawei contacted you afterward?"
"No, why would he contact ? To find trouble?"
Xiao ng laughed, blaming Shen Dawei for her fight with her husband!
Cherry only smiled.
Next to Cherry, Su Xiaong pouted, inevitably talking more, and sighed softly...
"I had a fight with my husband..."
Cherry’s brows beneath her sunglasses slightly tensed,
"What happened?"
As Cherry asked, Xiao ng imdiately began to talk at length, like pouring out her grievances.
Unaware, Cherry’s heart ached with every word.
Arthur, do you love her to this extent?
She wanted to ask him.
Yet she also wanted to ask herself,
How about you, acting like a fool... why?
