In the brightly lit conference room, Ou Yingxin turned her swivel chair and looked at the paparazzi. It only took half an hour for Lin Cijiu’s scandal to disappear from the Internet.
She narrowed her beautiful fox eyes and looked at the paparazzi. She now had another matter to deal with.
“It’s your turn now. Tell me, who took the photo?”
The reporters all secretly looked away from others to indicate that it was not them.
A familiar paparazzi spoke first: “Boss Ou, it really wasn’t me. I’ve been taking pictures with you guys for a long time. You know, we only post pictures of you two together on our account. We’ve never done anything else.”
Another paparazzi also said, “Boss Ou, we are with your Fire boy band. I wouldn’t dare to secretly take photos of your family even if I had the guts.”
Other paparazzi also took the opportunity to say, “Boss Ou, even if we take secret photos, we know the rules. How could we possibly slander your wife? It won’t do any good to us, right?”
Seeing that no one admitted it, Ou Yingxin sneered and said, “It’s hard to say. Didn’t they just say that someone took the money?”
“We wouldn’t dare to do that even if you pay us. We also abide by the rules and won’t disturb your family.” The reporters looked very righteous.
Ou Yingxin looked at these people and realized that it might take some effort to find the person who took the photos secretly.
Oh, I thought I could go see my wife.
Lin Cijiu was also in a dilemma. She looked at her wife’s bear and then at her niece.
Su Xiaoxuan grew up in Lin Cijiu’s home. She has always been sensible and learned not to fight or compete since she was very young.
Lin Cijiu remembered one time, she opened a box of chocolates and was about to eat them when she saw a chubby-faced child next to her looking at her with his cute big eyes.
She handed the chocolate over, but the child turned his head and ran away in fright.
Now Lin Cijiu looked at her and hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.
“Is it really given to me?” Su Xiaoxuan jumped for joy like a child.
The little bear was sitting in the passenger seat, still wearing his seat belt.
Su Xiaoxuan happily unbuckled her seat belt and hugged the bear in her arms.
Lin Cijiu took a look and already knew that his wife would not let her go.
Su Xiaoxuan was a child after all. She was finally reunited with her family in broad daylight and was so happy that she couldn’t sit still while holding the bear.
“Aunt, I thought you were going to be angry and ignore me.”
“why.”
“I’m a poor student! I’m embarrassed for you.” Su Xiaoxuan said in a muffled voice and lowered her head embarrassedly. Her mother and aunt were both top students, but she was a poor student.
“Why are you angry? Your boss is also a poor student.” Lin Cijiu thought of the years when his wife was studying with difficulty.
Even though Ou Yingxin looks like an elite now, when she was in school, she was often punished by standing at the door with her test papers because of her poor grades.
Su Xiaoxuan didn’t expect that her powerful boss had such a dark history. While happily eating melons, she didn’t forget to remind her aunt, “If you say that about your wife, be careful to get beaten. My sister is very powerful, okay.”
Su Xiaoxuan also likes her aunt very much. It was because she knew that Ou Yingxin was her aunt’s wife that she dared to sign a contract with her.
Lin Cijiu thought about his wife’s dark history and said casually, “Yeah, she’s just like you, she likes children’s things.”
Su Xiaoxuan listened and thought of something. She looked down at the bear in her arms and thought about it carefully. Then she understood something.
She asked carefully, “Aunt, is this bear for my sister?”
Lin Cijiu was avoiding an oncoming car and didn’t have time to reply.
Su Xiaoxuan had already put the bear safely in the back seat.
“Aunt, you should give me another gift. My sister will be angry if I take this.” She said obediently, but still couldn’t help but glance at the bear in the back seat.
It feels good to touch and is comfortable to hug, but she is very sensible and doesn’t want to snatch other people’s gifts.
“…” Lin Cijiu was not very good at coaxing people, and when he was thinking about what to say, he didn’t think of anything for a moment.
“Don’t be embarrassed. Aunt, I know it’s not easy for you. Your wife is so beautiful, and many people are pursuing her. The people around her try to coax her into doing something cute every day. Aunt, you have to work harder since you are not good at talking. You can’t be outdone.” Su Xiaoxuan said earnestly, looking like a little adult, and she was just about to teach her aunt how to pursue his wife.
“Su Xiaoxuan.” Lin Cijiu warned coldly, “You are so sensible, why don’t you continue working.”
“No, no, no, don’t take revenge like this.” Su Xiaoxuan tightly grasped the seat belt, “I just want to remind you that your wife really has a lot of suitors.”
“A lot?” Lin Cijiu was a little uneasy.
“Well, last time there was a country bumpkin who just sent a check without specifying the amount.”
“It’s so troublesome to cash checks these days.”
“That’s right, my sister was so domineering at that time.” Su Xiaoxuan recalled the scene at that time and said proudly, “She directly showed a black card and taught that country bumpkin that in the future, when pursuing a woman, don’t give her a check. Learn from my wife and give her a black card directly. It’s convenient and easy to use.”
Although he was rich, Lin Cijiu couldn’t help but interrupt, “I don’t have a black card.”
“Well, that’s my sister’s, right?” Su Xiaoxuan didn’t dare to say anything, wondering if her aunt was cheated on.
“Yeah.” Lin Cijiu thought that it might be a gift from Qiao’s father. They had an agreement back then that if they had to get married, they would never spend a penny from the family.
When Mr. Qiao made the bet with the two of them, he thought that these two children who had not been beaten by society would come back to beg him sooner or later.
But many years passed and it was Mr. Qiao who became anxious.
Once, Lin Cijiu heard the father and daughter talking on the phone, “Yes, yes, Dad is good for nothing except money. Why don’t you bring your son-in-law back for the New Year? Dad was wrong.”
“Aunt, your wife is rich and beautiful, you must cherish her. A teddy bear is too shabby a gift. Aunt, how about a car? Or you should move to a new house. I have saved a lot of money, why don’t we buy a villa for your sister?” The little niece began to speak earnestly again. She was worried about her aunt’s marriage at such a young age.
A while ago, when I heard that they were getting divorced, she was anxious every day.
Later, she saw that the two of them were doing better and just when she felt relieved, she saw a rumor online that her aunt was having an affair.
So, she couldn’t sit still anymore and came to help her aunt chase her wife.
“You worry a lot.”
“Of course, I only have my aunt.”
“Let’s go see your mother together when we have time.” Lin Cijiu thought of her sister. She had been recuperating due to poor health. Sister Lin was even less talkative than her, but the two sisters had a close relationship after all.
“She passed away three years ago.” Su Xiaoxuan’s expression darkened. Although she had no impression of her mother since she was a child, she still couldn’t help feeling sad.
“What?” Lin Cijiu slammed on the brakes and stopped the car.
Her family didn’t even tell her about such a big thing. No wonder when she called the nursing home in recent years, the nurses always said that her sister needed to rest and didn’t want to see her.
When Su Xiaoxuan saw her aunt’s expression, she knew she had done something wrong.
While her aunt was parking the car, she quickly called Mother Lin and said, “Grandma, I think I did something wrong.”
Mother Lin quickly comforted her grandson, then turned around and called Ou Yingxin, “Baby, do me a favor. Lin Cijiu might lose her temper. Please help take care of her…”
Ou Yingxin looked at the group of slick paparazzi in the conference room and immediately lost interest. Forget it, since she couldn’t catch the guy taking the photos this time, she could only wait until next time.
After all, my wife is more important.
“I’m sorry to bother you all today. I’ve come here specially. Let’s put it this way. I’ll cover all your expenses for the next three days. Let’s be friends. If you want to hear any news, you can tell me in private.” Ou Yingxin is well-known in the circle for his means and he is really rich.
The consumption in this scenic spot is shockingly high. The cost of three days is enough for them to work for two or three months.
Several paparazzi looked at each other and had some thoughts of informing on their opponents.
Ou Yingxin asked Assistant Xiaotian to send them out. She made a phone call and asked cautiously, “Mu Tou, where are you?”
Su Xiaoxuan had indeed not slept for three days and felt sleepy while sitting in the car. Lin Cijiu took her back to the hotel room. The child was also well-behaved and ran to the small bed outside the suite to sleep.
Before going to bed, he looked at his aunt with his eyes wide open, a little uneasily.
Lin Cijiu didn’t know how to coax the child, so he thought the child missed her mother. After thinking for a while, he stuffed the bear into her quilt.
“Go to sleep, I’ll take you out to play when you wake up.”
“But.” Su Xiaoxuan hesitated and looked at the bear in her arms. It was very comfortable to hold it, but as a well-behaved and caring child, she dared not be so ignorant.
“She is also your aunt. Don’t worry, she won’t be so stingy. Go to sleep.” Lin Cijiu touched her head. Seeing that she was still unwilling to sleep, she asked expressionlessly, “Do you want me to sleep with you?”
“No need!” Su Xiaoxuan quickly hugged the bear and shrank into the quilt. She didn’t dare to do that because she knew that her aunt must be a jealous person.
Lin Cijiu saw that she fell asleep, then he calmed down and recalled things about his sister.
Lin Cijiu is just an ordinary academic master, but her sister is a real genius. She has been cultivated by her family since childhood and can be said to be the pride of the entire family.
Perhaps it is because her sister is too outstanding that she looks so ordinary and is not taken seriously.
But she was not told about such things, so she must have been picked up.
Or maybe, everyone treated her like a child, and taught her since childhood to study hard and not to care about anything else.
Even her little niece was sensible enough to care about her private life. How incompetent was she? She wanted people around her to take care of her so carefully.
Just as she was looking out the car window and sighing, Ou Yingxin called.
“Wood, where are you?”
“In the car.”
“Where are you going?” Ou Yingxin suddenly became nervous. What was she doing in the car? Was she going to quarrel with Lin’s mother?
Lin Cijiu glanced at the fuel gauge and said, “Fuel up.”
“Huh?” Ou Yingxin didn’t quite understand. Come on, what kind of oil?
“The car is out of gas, wife, do you have anything to say to me?” Lin Cijiu sensitively noticed something.
“No, no, I’ll go with you.” She quickly asked Sister Qiao’s assistant to take her there.
“No, the gas station is a bit far.” Lin Cijiu didn’t want to think too much about it, but when she saw Ou Yingxin coming over specially, she felt something was wrong.
Ou Yingxin got in the car and secretly watched her expression.
Lin Cijiu is usually not angry. She keeps it to herself most of the time. Mother Lin is always afraid that she will be like her sister and develop a mental illness, so she is very nervous.
Ou Yingxin was also nervous, although Lin Cijiu was rarely angry with her, and was very easy to coax even when he was angry.
However, this was a big deal and she was a little unsure.
“Wife.” Lin Cijiu suddenly called her.
“Yeah.” Ou Yingxin suddenly became nervous.
“Sit still.” Lin Cijiu reminded her.
“Oh.” Ou Yingxin looked down following her gaze and nervously fastened her seat belt in a hurry.
Lin Cijiu turned aside helplessly and helped her tie it up.
“Wife.”
“Ok?”
“Have you forgotten something?” Lin Cijiu looked up at her, his eyes showing helplessness that saw through everything.
So, what did you forget?
