TGLC Chapter 41.5

Xie Qingyu said sarcastically, “Then you really are a responsible man.”

Zhuzhu ignored her mother’s strange tone and echoed her father’s words.

“Yes, yes, a good boss is one who is responsible for his employees.”

Zhuzhu asked her father curiously, “Dad, are there as many people in your place as there are in Mom’s shop?”

Duan Zihui replied rather subtly: “A little more.”

Xie Qingyu rolled her eyes.

Duan Zihui’s company has significantly more people than her shop.

But Zhuzhu insisted on getting to the bottom of it: “How much more?”

“Can Mom’s shop have this many people in the future?” Zhuzhu asked with a hint of anticipation.

Xie Qingyu: “…”

You’re dreaming.

Duan Zihui’s head office and branches combined have thousands, even tens of thousands of employees. Even if she worked for ten lifetimes, she couldn’t catch up to his pace.

And yet, Duan Zihui was still grinning mischievously and painting a rosy picture for her.

“Then you should ask your mother to work harder.”

Little Zhuzhu suddenly seemed to have a direction: “Okay, I’ll ask Mom to work hard so that she can be as rich as Dad in the future.”

Duan Zihui smiled: “Okay.”

Xie Qingyu glared at him fiercely, her meaning quite clear.

Are you out of your mind?

Duan Zihui’s smile became even brighter.

That evening, Little Zhuzhu called Chongchong to ask when they would be free.

Xu Yi had returned and hadn’t gone over these past two days, busy at the winery.

Yan Zhen was quite free.

After asking her mother, Chongchong turned back and said, “I’m free these few days.”

Zhuzhu was delighted: “Then whenever is fine?”

Chongchong: “Yes.”

Zhuzhu said, “My dad said he needs time to arrange his work, so tomorrow isn’t possible. How about the day after tomorrow?”

Little Zhuzhu made the decision very happily.

After making the decision, her father came over that evening, and Zhuzhu told him about it right away.

Xie Qingyu, who was supposed to make the decision, was completely dumbfounded when she heard about it.

Shouldn’t she be the one deciding which day to go?

How come she’s the last one to know?

Is there no justice in this world?

But this decision was made anyway.

Over the next two days, they started buying their favorite swimsuits and other swimming gear.

Because Duan Zihui also went with them that day, when Zhuzhu was getting her things, she thought about her father and asked her mother for her opinion: “Mom, should we buy clothes for Dad, too? Otherwise, when we go, we’ll have clothes, but Dad won’t have any.”

Buy Duan Zihui a swimsuit?

Dream on!

Xie Qingyu said to her daughter seriously, “If you’re worried that your dad won’t have any, you can call him to remind him. Besides, swimming pools usually have them, so you don’t need to worry at all.”

Although her mother’s words seemed reasonable, Zhuzhu was still worried that her father didn’t know.

So Little Zhuzhu made a phone call to her father.

It was already past ten o’clock when Zhuzhu called.

He had just finished work and got home. Seeing it was so late, he didn’t want to disturb their rest, but he hadn’t expected the little girl to still be awake so late.

She even called to remind him to buy a swimsuit.

She said, “I wanted to ask Mom to buy it for you, but she wouldn’t.”

Xie Qingyu was applying a face mask in the living room when she heard Zhuzhu’s words and almost wanted to jump up and cover her mouth to shut her up.

But she held back.

She stared speechlessly at the ceiling.

Duan Zihui, on the other end of the line, agreed.

However, he still couldn’t help but think of how Xie Qingyu had received so many things from him the year they got married, but she had never bought him a single piece of clothing.

Duan Zihui felt a little annoyed.
