Chapter 551 - 542: The Landlady’s Invitation
"Wow~~ Auntie is... just too beautiful, isn’t she? Ask her if she wants another daughter, I want to be your sister!"
The next day at noon, at the company, Sun Mumu was looking at Su He’s short video on her phone, genuinely praising it.
For young people, especially seeing such a young and beautiful mom who can shoot videos with her daughter, they feel quite envious, even forgetting about the takeout in front of them.
Lin Miaomiao nodded in agreement.
Upon hearing this, Su Qing couldn’t help but roll her eyes: "Go, my mom doesn’t need sons or daughters now, she’s more interested in grandsons and granddaughters, so unless..."
Before he could finish, Sun Mumu leaned back tactically, her face full of caution as she said, "What? You don’t mean to make me have one for you, do you? I’m going for sterilization tomorrow."
Su Qing: "No way, I want you to call me dad just for fun! You? I’m not underestimating you, but whether you can have one is uncertain. If you truly want the sterilization, I’ll ask my mom and find out where Da Huang got it done, then introduce you!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Mumu exploded: "You can’t have one, my body is strong, and you still want me to call you dad? You’re a pervert, eww~~~"
Su Qing: ...
It must be said that nowadays, the proportion of experienced women and men is almost the same. What men know, women also know, if not more.
Seeing Sun Mumu’s expression, he knew what this girl was thinking, after all, Shen Yi liked this kind of tone.
"Yeah, pervert, too perverted!" Lin Miaomiao said dumbly, with a silly cute vibe, her hair swaying foolishly.
People might think she was underage, even though she’s older than him, her eyes still carried a pure innocence, just like a university student.
When he thought about Wang Xing, such a burly man ending up with this legal loli, he found the world really fascinating.
Is this the so-called body type complementarity?
Why is it said the beauty standard differences between humans are bigger compared to pigs? Anyway, he couldn’t understand why Lin Miaomiao fell in love with Wang Xing at first sight, was it a hero saving a damsel in distress?
But before that, Lin Miaomiao seemed to have feelings for Wang Xing. Though he was the narrator, he didn’t understand everything. Anyway, he wouldn’t be able to figure it out even if he spent a hundred bucks at a supermarket entrance.
"Hey, aren’t you both leisurely these days? Isn’t it almost the end of the year, aren’t we supposed to be busy? Why do you look so happy?" Su Qing decided to change the topic.
Upon hearing this, Sun Mumu stretched lazily and replied at ease: "Busy at the end of the year is for other departments, like the sales and finance departments. It doesn’t concern us in planning. Besides, didn’t you know? Our department is already split into two, planning and internal affairs. Simply put, we’re just ordinary clerks with light work, organizing and summarizing. If there was too much work and the pay were normal, I’d have quit already."
"Uh... alright, but haven’t you thought about making more money?" Su Qing asked.
In response, Sun Mumu was open-minded: "Why? To trick me into working hard? Look at Wang Xing, he does earn a lot, but didn’t he have to go out to run business at noon? Unless you tell President Shen to give me your secretary position, I’d be interested."
Upon hearing this, Su Qing rolled her eyes at her, as if wanting to usurp, dreaming on. Besides, his secretary job didn’t come with a salary, could an ordinary person handle that?
Of course, Sun Mumu and others didn’t know he didn’t get a salary, or they’d have blown up.
Were it not for Da Huang still having a salary, he would’ve truly turned into someone who loses money.
But since Wang Xing was mentioned, Su Qing became interested and asked Lin Miaomiao: "By the way, Miaomiao, recently Wang Xing bought a car. When you both commute to work, have there been any developments?"
He still remembered Wang Xing saying there would be an explanation before the New Year. He hadn’t paid much attention these days. It’s about to be New Year, yet nothing happened. Was this guy backing out again?
Upon hearing this, Lin Miaomiao’s pretty face blushed instantly. She waved her hand hurriedly and said softly: "No... not yet!"
"Damn, still nothing? What does this Wang guy want? Enjoying Miaomiao’s food, relishing her goodness, and yet intends to play the game of not initiating, not rejecting, and not being responsible? What a freeloader!" Sun Mumu blurted out indignantly. If Wang Xing were there, she would’ve settled accounts with him already.
After all, Lin Miaomiao was gradually falling under her watch.
"No, Mumu, we haven’t progressed that far yet. No rush, Wang Xing isn’t that kind of person," Miaomiao hurried to explain.
Which annoyed Sun Mumu even more.
But Su Qing felt numb hearing this. He’d heard it before; Wang Xing had explained Jiang Mengting like that. Was the simping trait not gone and just transferred from Wang Xing to Miaomiao?
"Don’t worry, there’s no rush with this. I think he should make a move in a few days, take it easy!" Su Qing reassured, though in his heart, he’d cursed Wang Xing thoroughly.
"You’re a grown man, why so indecisive? It’s not like you don’t know if she likes you, it’s like lice on a bald man’s head—obvious enough, quit hesitating! "
"Hopefully, but I’m not too optimistic," Sun Mumu sighed helplessly.
As for Lin Miaomiao, she seemed not to mind, rather enjoying the current state of things between them, feeling happy simply being around someone she liked every day. As for anything else, she wouldn’t force it, letting nature take its course.
At this moment, outside dealing with work, Wang Xing suddenly sneezed, feeling a chill down his spine as a sense of foreboding engulfed him.
In the afternoon, Su Qing went to Lao Wang’s publicity department since Shen Yi wasn’t around. He roamed freely like Dr. Mundo, going wherever he pleased.
If Da Huang weren’t working, he’d wouldn’t have come, assured that Deng Jie could manage everything smoothly within the company.
"Lao Wang, how come you’re so idle? Doesn’t such a big department have work?"
Seeing Lao Wang enjoying tea leisurely in the office, Su Qing couldn’t help but ask.
"Eh, I have people under me now, no need to handle everything personally. I can’t enjoy myself a bit yet?" Lao Wang sipped tea leisurely, continued, "Besides, after working overtime for a while, tasks are almost done. I haven’t taken any new ones, just finishing what I have on hand will do.
Today is Da Huang’s last day; after today, there should be no more work before New Year. Once done, I can also rest!"
Hearing this, Su Qing chuckled: "Such good news, great, then I won’t come tomorrow!"
"Up to you, the company’s yours, no need to ask for leave, right? Oh, I’ve prepared a video for you. You haven’t updated for nearly a month; maybe restart before New Year. Dragging on won’t help, without updates for long, your account will just go to waste."
Agreeing, Su Qing nodded, finding it reasonable, considering his dwindling popularity, so he agreed directly.
"Sure, just send the video to me then!"
"No problem!"
Lao Wang was easygoing now, especially after his relationship with Shen Yi was discovered by Feng Yan. Everything fell into place; he could enjoy a bit of the perks as a family member of leadership, no need to edit his videos himself.
At 4 PM, Da Huang was brought back by Zhao Lei. With Da Huang, he officially ended his work for the year.
But as soon as he got home, moments later the landlady knocked at his door.
"Sister Wen? What brings you here, come on in!" Su Qing was somewhat surprised since the house was now his. The landlady visiting while Shen Yi wasn’t around surprised him.
"Why, can’t I come see you?"
"No... not at all, Sister Wen, come anytime you want!"
"That’s more like it!" Wen Nanqing rolled her eyes teasingly.
Both sat on the sofa, having a casual chat, the landlady occasionally taking pictures of him with her phone, leaving him puzzled.
After a while, the landlady finally brought up the main topic.
"Xiao Su, if you’re free recently, how about visiting back home with me once?"
Surprised by this, Su Qing thought, Damn, meeting parents for the New Year? He hasn’t even visited Shen Yi’s side yet?
Seeing his expression, Wen Nanqing smiled and explained, "Don’t worry, it’s almost New Year. My brother’s project has reached a phase, inviting you for a meal at home. Besides, my parents have been mentioning you lately."
With Wen Nanqing’s explanation, the tension eased, he was startled, thinking something major might happen like those typical high school dramas.
"Alright, no problem, it has been a while since I saw Uncle Wen and Auntie. By the way, is the date set?" Su Qing inquired with a smile.
"Tomorrow, coincidentally my brother’s returning home!"
"Alright, tomorrow it is!"
Nowadays, maintaining good ties with the Wen family seemed fitting, and visiting was due. Had Wen Nanqing not reminded him, he might’ve nearly forgotten.
"Great, then it’s settled. Tomorrow we’ll head home together. Don’t need to drive Xiao Yi’s car, take mine, it’s free now!"
Su Qing: ...
