Chapter 29 Dink, Get Your Wish
Mrs. Song said: "As long as you are happy, nothing else matters. So you don't have to be burdened with this matter."
Su Nian was a little surprised and a little embarrassed. Mrs. Song's words were so sincere. She really considered Huo Jinyan and respected his thoughts.
This was originally something Su Nian was extremely worried about, but Mrs. Song dispelled her concerns with a few words.
Mrs. Song looked at her carefully: "I feel you have a kind face, and the more I look at you, the more familiar you become. Grandma believes that you and Jin Yan can live happily in the future."
Su Nian knew that this was the old man's expectation and smiled at her.
The Song family got on the bus, came happily and returned satisfied.
Xie Yuanlan said: "Mom, when I look at the child Su Nian's face, I feel like I have seen him before somewhere. It can be seen that this child must be from our family."
Mrs. Song laughed: "I like this kid too."
The whole family couldn't wait to raise their hands to vote in favor.
Mrs. Song and Xie Yuanlan looked at each other, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law felt in a tacit understanding that Huo Jinyan's words about only talking about responsibilities and not about feelings were probably not going to slap him in the face in the future.
After Su Nian saw off the Song family, he went to see off Shu Ran and the others.
There were a lot more semi-finished vegetables bought at home today. Su Nian picked up two big bags, one for Shu Ran and one for grandma.
Grandma told her: "Just take care of yourself and Xiaoyan. I have a pension, which is enough. Don't bring anything to me."
She was afraid of affecting their family relationship.
"Grandma, it's just a little food. We are all busy and don't often eat at home, so it's easy to put it away." Su Nian said, "Besides, Jin Yan also said before that these things are just for food, no one eats them."
Where to eat?”
Shu Ran looked at the two big pockets and said, "I'll give Zhihui a call. It's almost time to finish overtime at this point. If he comes to pick us up, we can go home together."
She made a phone call.
Meng Zhihui was chatting and laughing with a pretty girl in his company, and what he said made her giggle.
"Mr. Meng, what's your phone number?" Zhang Xiaoxiao pointed to his mobile phone.
Meng Zhihui glanced at the call from Shu Ran and knew that she would definitely talk about today's events again. He was a little impatient and clicked the button directly.
"Mr. Meng, won't you answer?"
"Harassing phone calls." Meng Zhihui muted his phone, turned it up and put it aside.
He was really annoyed with Shu Ran. Regardless of whether she wanted her to have a second child or not, she would always push back.
But she has a very lenient control over things outside that have nothing to do with her, and she spends money and puts in effort. Where are the outsiders who can help others?
Zhang Xiaoxiao is his colleague, two levels below him. She only came to the company last year. She is young and beautiful. Meng Zhihui takes her under his wing and gives her guidance on her work. As time goes by, the relationship between the two grows day by day and they work together tacitly.
The two got along extremely well before, working together, having work meals together, and making appointments to work overtime together.
Together with the young, beautiful and sensible Zhang Xiaoxiao, Meng Zhihui feels that he is several years younger.
Zhang Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "It's almost time to get off work. Mr. Meng, you should go home too, right?"
"There is no need to go back so early today." Meng Zhihui said, "How about I treat you to dinner?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao did not refuse: "I should treat Mr. Meng to dinner, just because I am afraid of delaying Mr. Meng's time. If Mr. Meng is willing, I will treat Mr. Meng tonight."
"Okay, you invite me tonight and I'll treat you tomorrow night." Meng Zhihui pulled Zhang Xiaoxiao's hand as if unintentionally. She didn't refuse, so he boldly held it.
Zhang Xiaoxiao twitched for a while but couldn't pull it out, so she stopped twitching and let out a giggle.
Shu Ran made several calls, but Meng Zhihui didn't answer the phone.
"Forget it, he must still be busy." Shu Ran said, "Let's take a taxi back."
Su Nian used a taxi app to call a taxi for them, watched them get on the bus, waved and said, "Let me know when you get there, and pay attention to safety on the road."
When she got home, Su Nian looked through her bag and found eight red envelopes.
"Why so many?" She remembered that she only received red envelopes from Mrs. Song.
It seemed that they put it in her bag while she was not paying attention. Song Lianyi was still a cousin, so she even gave her a red envelope.
She quickly turned it over and saw that each red envelope was worth two thousand yuan.
She took the red envelope to Huo Jinyan: "Mr. Huo, these red envelopes total sixteen thousand, I will give them to you directly."
"Grandpa and grandma gave it to you, what did you do for me?"
"There's no reason for me to accept so many red envelopes from them. Didn't you also confiscate the ones my grandma gave me?"
"Your grandma told me when she gave it to me that she wanted me to buy the wedding ring for you. My grandma also told me when they gave it to me that it was given to you directly," Huo Jinyan said.
Su Nian received the salary for nothing, so he felt quite uneasy with this red envelope.
Huo Jinyan thought of the gifts prepared by the Song family on the bus. Fortunately, he stopped them in advance, otherwise Su Nian would have been even more uneasy.
Su Nian couldn't refuse, so she simply saved all the red envelopes and took them out when needed later.
"Mr. Huo, when did you start planning to become a DINK?" Su Nian has always been curious about this question.
"When I was very young."
"Do you simply not like children or is there something else?"
After Su Nian asked, he saw Huo Jinyan purse his lips slightly, obviously not liking to mention this topic.
Eventually, she heard him say, "I just don't like it and don't want to take on the responsibility of having children."
Su Nian didn't ask any more questions, remembering that everyone hugged Tiantian today, talked to her, and played with her, except Huo Jinyan.
Some people just don't like children naturally, and that's normal.
Su Nian thought, if someone who doesn't like children becomes a DINK, he has gotten his wish.
…
After Shu Ran returned home, she gave Tiantian a bath and looked at her phone for a while.
Meng Zhihui hasn't come back yet, and he hasn't responded to messages he sent to him.
She was drowsily asleep before she felt that her husband was back. He was lying beside him, his phone was still flashing, and he was chatting with someone on WeChat.
Shu Ran was too sleepy and had to go to work tomorrow, so she closed her eyes and continued to fall asleep.
…
The next day, Su Nian went to the office.
Editor-in-chief Tang Ye gave her a job: "Su Nian, I have to leave this job to you. It was previously arranged for Tian Linna, but she suddenly asked for sick leave, and I have to go on a business trip for a few days. I won't do this interview.
If our department's KPI assessment cannot be completed this month, everyone's bonuses will be wasted."
"Interviewing Mr. Ye from the financial world?" Su Nian asked, a little uneasy, "I have never conducted such a big interview."
"I know, so I wrote a proposal for you. You take a look first. I don't trust anyone else except you." Tang Ye said, "That Mr. Ye is going to attend a Huo Group dinner tonight. You
Let’s go take a look first.”
