Wrapping his arms around his wife, Li Mu said emotionally, “You are right. That is the starting point of my career. I have devoted countless time and effort to this company. Therefore, I was really hesitant to leave.”Lin Wan said with a smile, “I have an idea. How about putting your resignation issue aside first? Didn’t she put you on leave? You can use this time to think about it carefully so that you won’t regret your decision. In the end, no matter what decision you make, don’t let yourself regret it!”He agreed with his wife. Since it was difficult to make a decision, he might as well put things aside first and use this time to think about everything carefully. He didn’t want to regret it later because of a hasty decision he made.“Okay, I won’t think about it for the time being. Let’s take a self-drive trip to the Grand Valley to relax!”Lin Wan gladly agreed. The couple didn’t need to go to work now. Therefore, it was easy f

Without any intention of teasing He Xiaoyu, Li Mu spoke sincerely and heart-warmingly. Speechless, He Xiaoyu took a bite of her apple. Who knew if she would take his advice seriously?“Alright, if I listen to you, will you come back to work?”“I will if you listen to me, but ...”“No buts. It’s a deal!” He Xiaoyu reached out her pinky finger. “Pinky swears. Whoever breaks the promise is a brat!”Li Mu hesitated for a while, but eventually, he smiled and promised her.“Although I made a promise to you, you’ll have to give me some time. My wife already knows about my resignation. I will have to get her permission before I go back to work.”“No excuse. What else do you want to do if you’re not going to work? Lying around and doing nothing? She can’t even afford to pay her car loans with that pitiful salary of hers!” He Xiaoyu said disdainfully.“She already resigned too,” Li Mu replied.

Mr. Gou had returned to his villa. Upon seeing him, the young man who was sitting in the living room immediately stood up and greeted him. After helping Mr. Gou to sit down, he then smiled and said, “About Nan, I’m sorry to bother you.”“If you all don’t want to bother me, then stop making any troubles. If you all are sensible, I don’t have to take care of your mess at all.”“Mr. Gou, you are right. Nan is indeed outrageous this time. With his wealth and status, he still used these kinds of dirty tricks to take down a woman. He deserved to be punished.”Mr. Gou squinted his eyes and didn't respond to his words. Instead, he asked, “I believe you have something to say to me. Quit beating around the bush, and say what on your mind is!”“I can’t hide anything from you. Then I’ll get straight to the point!”Mr. Gou gave a hum and said nothing. “Mr. Gou, Nan has indeed done something wrong this time, and he has

Lin Wan opened the cake box, and Li Mu helped her put on the candles, “Honey, make a wish!”“It’s not even my birthday today. Why do I have to make a wish?” Lin Wan blushed. Although she said that, she still looked very happy.Li Mu lit up the lighter.“Why can’t you make a wish today? All of our friends are gathered here today. It’s such a good day. I’m sure your wish will come true!”The Fang couple, who were standing aside, chimed in. They kept egging her to make a wish.“Alright then,” Lin Wan closed her eyes, put her hands together, and made a wish.After blowing out the candles, Lin Wan said happily, “Thank you, honey. Let’s have some cake.”“Let me cut the cake. The first piece is for Lin Wan. Thank you for always caring for Li Mu.” Fang Qiang cut a piece of cake and placed it onto Lin Wan’s plate.“The second piece goes to my wife. Please have mercy on me ton

The phone kept ringing. Lin Wan hesitated, but she picked up the call anyway.“Hello?”“Hi! Am I speaking to Ms. Lin?” A man’s voice came from the other side of the phone. He had a charming voice, and it was pleasant to the ears.“Yes, I am. Who is this?”“Oh, I’m the new vice-principal. I’m Wang Shen. Ms. Lin, can you come to the school now? There’s something I would like to talk to you about.”The new vice-principal? Lin Wan was taken aback. That was too soon. It wasn’t that long after Wu Heping passed away, and there was already a replacement.Besides, she barely knew this person and the reason he wanted to meet.“Hi, Mr. Wang. If it’s okay for you, I prefer to talk over the phone.”“Ms. Lin, please forgive me for being so sudden. I still hope you could come to the school. We should talk about this in person. Don’t worry. It won’t take up much of your time.”
