"Yuanyuan, are you finishing the interview now?" It's already very late now.
"Yes." Jiang Yuan replied: "I asked a lot of questions, so it took a long time."
"How is the situation?" Yan Qing asked.
"I've been accepted, and the salary has been negotiated. I'm very happy. I've signed the contract, and I've made an appointment for a full-body checkup tomorrow. I can join the job as soon as there are no problems."
"Very good." Yan Qing nodded, truly happy for Jiang Yuan: "Baby is great!"
Jiang Yuan was not particularly happy over there, but was worried about Yan Qing.
"Qingqing...I have to tell you something."
"What's wrong?"
"You should have seen the message I sent you before turning off the phone. The interviewer in charge of the interview today is Henry. He was very angry when he learned that you broke the appointment."
"..."
"I was going to explain it to you, but I was stopped. The other person in charge told me that when Henry is angry, he doesn't listen to anyone. If he continues to explain forcefully when he is the most angry, it will only make him resentful. That person's impression was even worse, so I didn't dare to say anything more for fear of causing trouble to you..."
Yan Qing was startled. She had already thought that this would be the case, but she still comforted Jiang Yuan: "It's okay. I'll look at other companies, but I can't work with you anymore."
"Henry is a well-known designer in the industry. His reputation has always been very good. Many companies respect him. I'm afraid that because of this incident, other companies will also..."
Jiang Yuan was really worried about Yan Qing.
"Qingqing, if it weren't for what happened today, you are so much better than me, you would definitely be able to..."
"Don't say that." Yan Qing interrupted, narrowing his eyes and staring at the busy traffic outside the window.
"Today's broken appointment was not due to any low-level reasons on my part, so I have nothing to regret."
After a pause, she continued: "You can't just watch the child being taken away."
She lived up to her conscience about what happened today, and was even a little lucky.
The middle-aged woman acted so realistically that she blurted out everything, making it impossible to tell the truth from lies. Fortunately, some of her knowledge allowed her to immediately tell that the woman was not the child's biological grandmother. Fortunately, she stood up, otherwise Geng Geng will definitely be taken away by her blatantly.
Knowing that Jiang Yuan was worried about her situation, Yan Qing comforted her: "It's okay. Let me take a look at it again. I will try my best to save it."
After saying that, she easily changed the subject and said, "Are you home now?"
"No, I'm still on the way..."
"Have you eaten yet? Let me order you some takeout. You can get it when you get home."
"No need." Jiang Yuan said over there: "I was very hungry after the interview just now, but the company prepared a midnight snack, including staple food, snacks, fruits, and milk. I didn't leave until I finished eating."
"Okay." Yan Qing nodded: "It's been a tiring day today. Let's go to bed early when we get home."
"Well, honey, you should go to bed early, good night."
"OK, good night."
I hung up the phone and thought about it.
She and Jiang Yuan were going to one of the top companies in the industry. For this interview, they had spent a long time preparing for this interview. Now that they had missed it, it was impossible not to be disappointed.
I sighed helplessly and took it one step at a time.
She turned around holding the phone and saw the man standing in the living room staring at her.
Yan Qing was immediately shocked.
"When did you come out... you scared me." She patted her chest, not recovering from the shock.
I was used to living alone, so when I turned around unintentionally and suddenly saw a man, it was very scary.
Huo Maocheng stood there, the light in the living room fell on him, making him appear tall and tall, and the custom-made high-end suit fully displayed his perfect figure. His eyes as black as obsidian were staring at her at the moment, and the light fell on his chiseled face. His nose was high and straight, and his thin lips were slightly pursed, quiet and elegant.
He didn't know how long he had been standing there.
"In trouble?" he asked.
"It's nothing serious." Yan Qing, "I missed an interview today."
"Need help?" Huo Maocheng.
"No need." Yan Qing refused and subconsciously replied: "You don't owe me any favors."
Huo Maocheng stared at her and didn't answer immediately, but walked over.
Seeing the man getting closer and closer to her, Yan Qing's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate again.
"you……"
Just when she was about to ask Huo Maocheng what he wanted to do, the man had already walked beside her and stopped.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, he turned his head, looked at her, and replied, "Who said I don't owe you?"
"..."
"Without you, that kid would have been put into a van and gone to be someone else's cheap grandson."
"Pfft——" Yan Qing couldn't help but laugh out loud. After thinking about this sentence, the more he wanted to laugh, the happier he became.
Seeing her smiling face, Huo Changcheng looked confused and frowned: "What? Did I say something wrong?"
"No..." Yan Qing was still laughing: "I just didn't expect you to say such arrogant words."
And with simple revenge.
Obviously he could just call him a cheap son, but he had to say he was a cheap grandson.
In her fixed perception, a rich, handsome and stalwart boss like Huo Maocheng should be a noble and cold domineering president.
"..." Staring at the bright smile on Yan Qing's face, he paused and the corners of his lips curved slightly.
The two stood side by side, looking at the busy traffic and lights outside the window.
Because of the conversation just now, the distance between the two people suddenly became much closer. Without Geng Geng as a mediator, their relationship would no longer be awkward.
"The way you and Geng Geng get along is quite special." Yan Qing stared at the night scene outside. "They don't look like father and son, but more like enemies."
Huo Maocheng raised his brows but did not deny it: "He unilaterally dislikes me and didn't find out?"
After discovering it, he was not only disgusted, but simply disgusted to death.
"Is it because Geng Geng spends more time with his mother?" Yan Qing has read two novels about Mr. Ba and knows that Mr. Ba's life is busy every day and he is not at home. It is normal for his children not to be close to him.
"..." Huo Maocheng didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at her silently, staring silently.
Yan Qing felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, "...What's wrong?"
Did she say something wrong? Why are you looking at her like that?
"..." Huo Maocheng remained silent and just looked at her for a few more seconds, "It's nothing."
Then he withdrew his gaze and turned to stare at the night scene outside: "He has no mother."
Hearing the man's first sentence, Yan Qing was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but when he heard the next sentence, he was half relieved and choked with half a breath.
Did she...did she hear wrongly?
Geng Geng... such a cute child.
No mother?
