Chapter 586: She Is Not My Girlfriend

When Xia Ning went downstairs, Gao Wanhua was reading newspapers at the table and Enoch was doing a jigsaw puzzle on the carpet.

Seeing Xia Ning come downstairs, Gao Wanhua put down the newspapers and smiled at her, “Are you hungry? The breakfast is in the kitchen. I'll have someone fetch it for you.”

Xia Ning looked at Gao Wanhua in slight embarra.s.sment. Living in others' houses, she unexpectedly got up so late. Lawfully, she was still not her daughter-in-law.

“Thank you, Auntie!”

Gao Wanhua smiled at Xia Ning, “There is no need to be too polite. We are family.”

“Mummy is a small lazy pig that did not get up until now!” Enoch looked at Xia Ning and smiled. Perhaps because Xia Ning had always been with him these days, he was already not that eager to hug her the moment he saw her like before.

Within his subconscious, he had already gotten used to Xia Ning's company.

On hearing her son's words, Xia Ning felt even more embarra.s.sed.

Gao Wanhua looked at Enoch and smiled, “Then what about you who does not get up until 12 o'clock every day?”

Looking at Gao Wanhua with his black, watery eyes, Enoch thought of something and suddenly shouted out, “I know!”

“What do you know?” Gao Wanhua looked at her grandson with kindness.

“Mummy gave birth to me. As Mummy is a small lazy pig, I'm a mini lazy pig.” Enoch looked at Xia Ning and Gao Wanhua with a deadpan expression, “Then Daddy is a big lazy pig.”

Xia Ning: “…”

Gao Wanhua: “…”

The two looked at each other and both saw a smile. Did they become a family of lazy pigs?!

On the 28th floor in Shengs.h.i.+ Group, Qiao Yu went out of the elevator and walked straight towards the office.

Chen Lin stood up at once and said respectfully, “Boss, good morning!”

The other two a.s.sistants immediately got up, “Boss, good morning!”

“Good morning!” Qiao Yu nodded at the three.

Chen Lin looked at Qiao Yu's back, frowning slightly.

Another a.s.sistant behind her said, “Did you see? The boss seemed to be in a good mood today. He seemed to be smiling at us just now.”

“It seems true, though not obvious. But he looked bossy!”

Chen Lin gazed at the tightly closed door of the office in a daze. She had followed Qiao Yu for years and naturally knew that her boss was very happy today. Was it because of his secret wife?

Thinking of the arrangements today, Chen Lin directly entered the chairman's office to say to Qiao Yu, who had just sat down, “Boss, I have already made an 11 o'clock appointment this morning with Jingling for a conference call between you and Mr. Liang.”

“Ok.” Qiao Yu nodded as he picked up the files on the desk and started to read.

“In addition, there will be a fourth-quarter summary report at three o'clock this afternoon. At eight o'clock in the evening, there will be a high-level get-together in the company and they have invited you to attend.”

“I have no time in the evening.”

Chen Lin's eyelids s.h.i.+vered. Although her boss did not like get-togethers very much, he usually does show up at this kind of get-togethers.

“Boss, are you accompanying your girlfriend in the evening? You can bring her here.”

Qiao Yu stopped signing while a flash of tenderness crossed his eyes. He shook his head, “It's too chilly in the evening. Put it off until some time later.”

Chen Lin looked at Qiao Yu in surprise. This was the first time she saw such tenderness in her boss's eyes. Was this really the ruthless, go-getting Mr. Qiao of Shengs.h.i.+? Would he also care for someone?

Chen Lin expressed her disbelief. She had followed him for so many years and never saw him treat any woman like this. But what Qiao Yu said next surprised her more.

“There is one thing wrong in your words just now.”

Chen Lin asked instinctively, “What is it?”

“She is not my girlfriend, but my wife.”
