If An Yufei had not pulled her into the room just in time, An Qi would have gone ballistic on the spot. Fortunately, An Shijie had kept her room locked, only granting access to servants for regular cleaning. Thus, Zeng Xuerou had no chance to get her hands on anything inside.
The room still looked familiar, which gave An Qi a sense of security. After looking around a bit, An Yufei also let down her guard.
The next morning, An Qi opened her eyes and saw the familiar decorations and wallpaper. For a moment, she thought that she was still dreaming.
It was not until little An Yufei, who was beside her, popped her little head out of her bed that she realized that this was all real.
An Qi subconsciously patted her own head and murmured, "Why can't this be a dream?"
As An Yufei saw An Qi's mixed feelings, she put her chin on An Qi's stomach, pouted, then said, "Mom, you always talked about being homesick before, but now that you are back, you just wished that it was just a dream. What do you really want? You are so hard to please."
An Qi put a cushion behind her head as she looked at An Yufei. She could see An Yufei had rolling her eyes.
So... I am despised by my own child!
Thinking of this, An Qi wore a bitter smile. Little Yufei ignored An Qi's embarrassment. She knew that only a strong sense of humiliation could inspire An Qi at this time.
Therefore, An Yufei did not hide the rolling of her eyes. Also, she was hoping that her attitude would somehow inspire An Qi to freshen herself up and not lie around in bed with a dejected look.
An Qi stretched out her arms under An Yufei's armpits, then held her up to face her. She then said, "An Yufei, you may not understand this, but I don't think that we can stay here in this house. Would you like to go back to Aunt Manman with me? Then, we can find some way to rent our own house and move out later?"
An Qi thought that little Yufei would understand her good intentions, so she was surprised at her reaction.
"No!" An Yufei yelled as she jumped out of bed and opened the window.
As it was the middle of the day, An Yufei pointed to the busy figures outside the window and asked, "Mom, shouldn't you be at work today? It would be better for you to pack up and go now versus staying here and thinking so much!"
An Qi touched An Yufei's forehead, but she did not have a fever. So, she started to wonder... What's wrong with this child this morning? She doesn't have a fever. Why is she always opposing me?
And... When did she hear about the acception by the Leng Group? Did I talk in my dreams last night and reveal that?
As An Qi glanced at her daughter, she could see that An Yufei was frowning. The little girl then pointed to Gu Xiaonan, who had just flashed past the window. "Mom, look... It's Aunt Xiaonan!"
Hearing her daughter's words, An Qi rushed to the window and saw a well-dressed Gu Xiaonan stepping into a car. After so many years, her figure was still as good as ever. She still had big breasts, an hourglass waist, and slim legs.
In fact, An Qi could learn a thing or two about self-discipline from Gu Xiaonan. In the winter, while everyone was else was still in bed, Gu Xiaonan would get up and swim.
While everyone was staying up late, Gu Xiaonan was the one who would bring them a late night snack. Naturally, that resulted in the whole class becoming obese, except for An Qi.
In high school, Gu Xiaonan was always the girl with hidden intentions, and thinking about her now, An Qi suddenly felt an urge to vomit. She then felt a very strong conviction in her heart...
I must keep an eye on her!
She would naturally want to look out for her family on behalf of her father. At this moment, An Qi instantly broke out of her previous depression and was filled with a fighting spirit. She took out a suit from her cabinet, which was from her high school days, and wore it.
An Yufei was amazed as she looked upon her mom's new attire. It seemed that her mother still has some charm!
Hmm, I hope she keeps this up! Charge, Pikachu!
On the balcony of the Leng Group's building…
Leng Yuchen held a portfolio full of An Qi's interview data. One could see from the portfolio that An Qi was very careful in preparing her resume.
What was even more obvious was the fact that the HR personnel who interviewed her were very distracted. In order to ensure that they did not overlook any talent, the Leng Group's interview process was rigorous.
As such, everyone who went to the Leng Group for an interview must go through at least three rounds of interviews with different personnel. However, for An Qi, only a single lowly-ranked staff member had recorded the first meeting, ignoring the subsequent rounds of meetings.
The irony was that, even with such a messy interview process, the final result had ended up actually being positive for her!
Ah, who is this woman who made the Leng Group break its rules of admission? Sheng Jie wondered as he secretly looked at Leng Yuchen.
At that moment, Leng Yuchen turned around and pointed to the last line in the lower right corner of the document, while explaining to Sheng Jie, "Go and check who made this decision."
Sheng Jie ignored this request, and seeing that Leng Yuchen was in a good mood, he quickly changed the subject and asked him in a hurry, "Mr. Leng, I heard that the first young master asked the secretary of the board of directors to transfer the share ratios. Should we also take some action?"
Leng Yuchen raised his eyebrows and aske, "Since when did I need you to tell me what to do?"
Sheng Jie was immediately silenced by his icy words. Fortunately, Leng Yuchen's mood did seem to be really good, so he did not torture Sheng Jie any further.
Instead, he just gave him a sidelong glance as he said, "Remember… No matter what happens, don't come and disturb me unless it is something that regards that woman."
