“Support how?” Huo Mian smiled .
“Do you think you and Brother-in-Law can create an opportunity for me and Bella to go on a business trip, just the two of us? If you can, that’d be perfect,” Zhixin said with a bright smile on his face .
“Why don’t you go to hell? Just the two of you? Wouldn’t it be easier for your Brother-in-Law to just make her marry you?” Huo Mian glared .
“If Brother-in-Law can do it, I’d obviously prefer that instead . ”
“Don’t be so shameless and just go to bed . ” Huo Mian smiled and lightly pinched Zhixin’s nose .
Then she put on her slippers and went upstairs…
Before Huo Mian went back to her own room, she went to the twins’ room to check on them .
The twins loved to play building blocks and dolls on the floor . Her mother was sitting in a corner and knitting a sweater .
Huo Mian looked at the three cute children and asked, “Tiantian, are you tired? If you’re tired, you should go to bed now . ”
Huo Mian was very gentle to her friend, Huo Yanyan’s, daughter .
“Auntie, I’m not tired yet . I want to play a bit more…” Tiantian said in a soft voice .
“Okay, but don’t stay up too late . You can go with them to their dance class tomorrow . I got you a pretty dress too . ”
“Thank you, Auntie . ” Tiantian was very polite .
“Mommy, don’t be so fussy . You’re still in your late 20s but you’re giving me the illusion that you’re having your menopause now…”
Huo Mian: “…”
“Mommy, goodnight . Bye bye . Sleep tight… If you sleep too late, you will get wrinkles and turn ugly . Daddy won’t love you when you turn ugly and you won’t be able to give us a little brother…” Little Bean’s words were a lot more brutal than Pudding’s .
Huo Mian’s face flushed when she heard the twins’ words . She really didn’t know what to do with them .
“You two can’t talk to adults like this . Little Bean, especially you! If I hear you say anything dirty again, you’ll hear from me…”
“Fine, fine… I was just joking with you . Can you not be so serious?” Little Bean immediately said something to pacify the situation .
– In the study room –
Qin Ning and Qin Chu were in their workaholic mode .
First, they had a web conference with Qin Ning’s father, who was at the American headquarters and made a few big decisions for the company .
Then, Qin Chu got out the newest company strategy plan out to discuss with Qin Ning so they could make final edits together .
When they finished, it was already past eleven .
“It’s late . We should continue tomorrow . Let’s get some rest,” Qin Chu looked at his little cousin and said .
“Bro, you’re really a workaholic . I came here to spend time with my nieces but you dragged me right into work mode… You’re usurping my private time, man… *sigh*… I sure have a rough life . ”
“You think I don’t know? You’re a workaholic yourself . You enjoy work . I’m just giving you a chance to appeal to yourself . You should thank me…” Qin Chu joked .
“Wow Bro . You are actually humorous now . Looks like my sis-in-law has her ways to tame you…”
“Nonsense . I’m the one taming your sis-in-law, not the other way around…” Qin Chu smirked .
Right then, something came up on Qin Ning’s mind so she asked, “Chu, are you familiar with Su Yu?”
“Why bring him up all of a sudden?” Qin Chu never was able to articulate how he thought of Su Yu . He couldn’t tell if Su Yu was his friend or enemy or something else…
“Of course it’s because of your beloved daughters . They’ve been whispering ‘Su Yu this, Su Yu that’ in my ear… I’m curious what Su Yu is like?”
“He’s probably not a good match for you,” Qin Chu slowly said, after thinking for a while .
For some uncertain reason, Qin Ning was rather disappointed when Qin Chu said that .
She wasn’t quite satisfied with the answer so she asked, “Why do you say that? Why do you think we’re not a good match?”
