The Goddess Brings The Baby To The House, Awakening The Daddy System!
#69 - Chapter 69 Xu Mengyao owed a debt!
After ending the video call, Xu Mengyao sent a message: "Mom, I'm taking a shower and it's not convenient to answer video calls. Is there anything important?"
Yang Qingyue was puzzled on the other end of the phone.
Not convenient to answer video calls while taking a shower?
Xu Mengyao used to video call her while showering. The camera doesn't need to be pointed at the body, just the head is enough.
"Mengyao is probably at Lin Chen's place again."
Yang Qingyue thought to herself.
They used to be nervous about this, but now they welcome it. If Xu Mengyao and Lin Chen are really together, it means that Xu Mengyao has completely come out of the shadows.
Yang Qingyue: "Your Aunt Liang will be fifty years old soon, and you have to go. Have you prepared her birthday gift yet?"
"Not yet."
Yang Qingyue: "Then you need to hurry up and prepare. You know her family's situation, the gift can't be bad, but it can't be too expensive either. Think about whether Lin Chen should go or not."
"He even participated in your company's basketball game. It doesn't seem right if he doesn't go to something like this."
Xu Mengyao had a bit of a headache.
Her Aunt Liang's husband is an official with a high rank. It's always a headache to give gifts. It was fine before, for ordinary birthdays, but this time it's her Aunt Liang's fiftieth birthday.
"Mom, I'll prepare it."
"I'll discuss whether Lin Chen will go with him tomorrow."
Yang Qingyue: "Need to wait until tomorrow? You should be able to discuss it with him now by going to the room next door, right?"
Xu Mengyao: "..."
In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning. Xu Mengyao got up, washed up, and went outside. Lin Chen was preparing breakfast.
"Lin Chen, won't it be hard for you to prepare three meals a day like this? It's okay if you slack off occasionally."
Xu Mengyao said at the kitchen door.
Lin Chen looked at Xu Mengyao and smiled: "People who find this hard will have difficulty reaching a high level of culinary skill. Is that little lazy worm, Xiao Qian, still not awake yet?"
Xu Mengyao nodded.
"Not yet."
"I want to discuss something with you. Next week is my Aunt Liang's fiftieth birthday, Qianqian will definitely have to go, you should go too."
Lin Chen asked: "Is Aunt Liang a relative of yours?"
Xu Mengyao shook her head: "Not a relative. Her husband used to be my grandfather's subordinate. My grandfather took good care of him, and our two families used to have a very good relationship."
"After my grandfather passed away, the relationship became a little weaker, but we still have to visit each other during festivals and birthdays."
Lin Chen: "Is her husband in a high position?"
"The district head here in Shanghai."
Lin Chen was a little surprised. The district head of Shanghai is quite a high rank. In smaller cities, such a rank would probably be one of the top two leaders.
"When is it, and is it appropriate for me to go?"
Lin Chen asked.
Xu Mengyao: "Next Wednesday. You publicly participated in the company's basketball game. Given the relationship between our two families, you probably have to go to Aunt Liang's fiftieth birthday, which is a big birthday."
Lin Chen nodded slightly.
"I have no problem. I'm good at freeloading."
In China, if you want to grow a business, he knows that you definitely need connections in the officialdom. The adult world isn't a fairy tale, and relationships that need to be maintained definitely have to be maintained.
"Lin Chen, there's one more thing—"
Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen hesitantly.
"What's the matter?"
Xu Mengyao: "Can you paint a picture for me? I've been thinking about it and I don't know what kind of gift is appropriate."
"If I give you a painting I painted, even if it's exposed in the future, no one can criticize it."
Lin Chen chuckled: "That's right, giving a painting painted by your own husband definitely can't be classified as bribery."
"I can paint it for you, but I won't take money. You have to think about how you'll thank me then. Will you kiss me, hug me, or what?"
Xu Mengyao: "..."
"Isn't it better to give you a million?"
Lin Chen shook his head: "No, it smells like money."
"Then I'll have my daughter kiss you."
Lin Chen looked at Xu Mengyao: "Don't even mention kissing, you can't even let your daughter sleep with me. It's no use playing tricks."
Xu Mengyao: "I'll cook you a meal."
Lin Chen said unhappily: "Last time you cooked, I had to process it before I could finish it. You can't do this as a big CEO. It's okay if I eat something bad, but don't harm Xiao Qian."
"Was it that bad?"
Xu Mengyao thought to herself.
"Then I owe you a hug, and I'll pay you back within three years."
Lin Chen said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile: "Mengyao, it seems you're confident that you'll be with me within three years. But three years is too long, three months is more like it."
"Three months is too short."
"One year."
Lin Chen shook his head: "The payment period is too long, I can't accept it."
"Half a year... half a year at the shortest."
Xu Mengyao stared at Lin Chen with her beautiful eyes.
Lin Chen chuckled: "Half a year it is then. I'll take a loss in this aspect, but you have to make it up to me in other ways. The duration of the hug can't be less than a minute."
Xu Mengyao's face turned slightly red.
There's quite a big difference between a quick hug and hugging for more than a minute.
But their relationship should have made considerable progress in half a year. It should be acceptable to hug at that time, right?
It's better than hugging within three months.
"Okay... okay then."
"I'm going to wake Qianqian up."
Xu Mengyao quickly slipped away with a flushed face.
Lin Chen smiled slightly. It was quite interesting to tease Xu Mengyao. Xu Mengyao looked very tempting when she blushed.
"It seems Mengyao's affection for me has increased quite a bit. Otherwise, she wouldn't have agreed to hug me in half a year."
Lin Chen thought to himself.
Xu Mengyao's agreement to this shows that she has good expectations for their relationship.
If it weren't for Xu Mengyao's illness, they might be together soon. Xu Mengyao has a psychological illness, a mental problem, and she can't control it herself.
Lin Chen knows medicine, and he's very clear that psychological illnesses are difficult to treat.
He can only slowly make her psychological shadows disappear.
"You bad guy, making me owe such a debt."
"It's okay if one million isn't enough, I can give you five million."
Xu Mengyao covered her face, she felt her face was a little hot.
"Qianqian, wake up."
"We're going to the amusement park today."
After calming down for a while, Xu Mengyao woke up Lin Xiaoqian.
After eating breakfast, Lin Chen and the others set off quickly.
"Let's go to the amusement park!"
Lin Xiaoqian shouted excitedly, "Daddy, I want to go to a big amusement park, I want to ride a horse."
Xu Mengyao asked in confusion: "Are there horses in the amusement park?"
Lin Chen smiled: "Xiaoqian is talking about the carousel."
Twenty minutes passed.
"Beep beep!"
Lin Chen's phone rang, it was a video call from his mother.
"Lin Chen, your mother is calling."
Xu Mengyao said, looking at Lin Chen's phone.
She was a little nervous.
Lin Chen's parents had been to Shanghai and met Lin Xiaoqian, but they hadn't met her, not even during video calls.
Lin Xiaoqian: "Mommy, Daddy is driving. Answer the video call, I want to talk to Grandma, I miss Grandma."
"You answer it and give it to Xiaoqian."
Lin Chen said.
Xu Mengyao glanced at Lin Xiaoqian. Her little cotton-padded jacket sometimes lets the wind through. But Lin Chen has already been to the United States to meet her parents, so she can't not answer the video call.
Picking up the phone, Xu Mengyao answered the video call.
But she didn't give the phone to Lin Xiaoqian right away.
"Auntie, hello."
"Lin Chen is driving, we're taking Qianqian to the amusement park."
Xu Mengyao greeted the camera.
