Chapter 143: Suddenly Transferred

“Television, huh? Don’t they often have news of this type on TV? The divorced woman covets a young hunk only to end up robbed of wealth and looks.” “You’re forbidden from watching television from now on!” Before he could protest, Chi Enen took a deep breath and continued, “The man who took me home last night is a friend of a friend. Our relationship isn’t what you think. I don’t even know him; how could I possibly be with him?”
The person who had brought her home last night was Uncle Huang’s ‘driver friend’; she hadn’t even gotten a clear look at the man’s face, so how could they possibly be together?
Moreover…
“Baby, listen to me carefully. Mommy is telling you, I have no plans to find you a father, not now, nor in the future. Even though I can’t give you a father, I will give you all the love I can. You will forever be my most beloved little baby, so don’t do things like you did today anymore, okay? It makes Mommy very embarrassed, and I wouldn’t even know how to face Uncle Han anymore.”
“So you’re never getting married?”
“Right, I’m not getting married.” Does her secret marriage to her gay husband count? After all, they’d part ways after their mutual needs were met.
Chi Jingchen took a deep breath, his little face turning stern, and after a long pause, he spoke word byword, “Woman, rest assured. I will grow up quickly, earn money quickly. In the future, I’ll treat you to the best delicacies!”
“Pfft—” Chi Enen was amused by him, pinched his cheek, blinked her eyes, and put on a serious face just like him, “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Having solved the biggest issue on her mind, she stood up in a good mood, took her Baby Chi’s hand again, and said, “Let’s go, we’re having barbecue tonight.”
She had only taken a step when she was pulled back. Baby Chi rolled his little eyes with an air of finality and said, “Go home!”
Chi Enen was confused, “Home? Why? Don’t you love barbecue the most? You were even fussing to go eat the day before yesterday.”
“That was the day before yesterday.” Chi Jingchen inserted a hand in his pocket, looking cool to the extreme, much like a certain person, his phoenix eyes glaring as he said, “The day before yesterday, I thought you might snag a wealthy husband, but now that’s not happening, so of course we’re not going.”
“…” Chi Enen was speechless and undeterred, “It’s just one meal of barbecue, Mommy can still afford it.”
“But you don’t have a man to support you, and before I grow up, you won’t have a man to support you. So until I grow up, we have to save!”
Chi Jingchen waved his small hand with a finality, settling the matter.
“Go home!”

Monday.
As soon as Chi Enen arrived at the company, before she could even set down her bag, Qin Nan hit her with a bombshell, “Enen, we’ve been moved to the evening time slot.”
Chi Enen frowned, hastily putting down her bag, “Whose idea was this? Fatty Fish? Is it because I offended President Wang?”
“I don’t know.” Whether it was the evening or afternoon shift made no difference to her, but she knew that for Enen, who had a child at home, the afternoon shift certainly was more convenient. She furrowed her brows, pondering, “1 don’t think it was Fatty Fish’s doing. You know his temper. If he knew you pushed that old lecher into the toilet bowl, he’d definitely hack us to death with a kitchen knife. It’s probably from the higher-ups.”
“…The higher-ups?”
“The New CEO.” Qin Nan leaned in conspiratorially to gossip, “Sandy said the New CEO arrived at eight this morning. Wei Ting was on the morning shift and even bumped into the New CEO. According to Wei Ting, our new boss is super handsome, with long legs and good looks…”
