Chapter 1

When midnight struck, Su Ruowan was suffering from excruciating pain before she gave birth smoothly.

The doctor walked out of the delivery room with the baby in his arms. “Congratulations, Mrs. Jing. It's a baby boy. He was born at eleven fifty-nine, just one minute before midnight. And he weighs 3.75 kg.”

The charming woman took the baby from him and hurriedly left.

As soon as the woman's figure disappeared from the doctor's sight, he immediately went back to the delivery room.

“Helian, thank you,”Su Ruowan thanked him with a weak smile. She lay on the delivery bed with a beautiful baby girl beside her.

Helian Chen was the most popular obstetrician in D City. Aside from being handsome and rich, he was the brother of Helian Xun, Su Ruowan's ex-boyfriend.

Thanks to his help, she was able to keep one of her children. But…

'Baby, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault.' Thinking of the baby boy who was taken away as soon as he was born, she felt guilty in her heart. .

In the CEO's office of the Jing Yang Group.

“Boss.” Lawyer He reported, “Miss Su sold the house early this morning and flew back to G City.”

A slender forefinger unconsciously tapped on the brown table. The owner of the hand was the new CEO of Jing Yang Group, Jing Muchen. He had healthy wheat-colored skin and perfect facial features that could make women instantly fall. Under his thick and delicate eyebrows were deep-set black eyes. His thin lips were slightly pressed, showing that he was a little unapproachable.

“Book a flight for me. I will fly to Italy tomorrow.” He paused for a while then continued in a low voice, “I have recommended you to Yan Nansheng. You can report to him starting tomorrow.”

Cold sweat streamed down Lawyer He's forehead. He bowed and said, “Thank you, boss. You can rest assured that my lips are sealed. I will always keep this a secret.”

The next day, a piece of explosive news hit the headlines of all the major newspapers in D City. It said, “Jing Muchen, who had just inherited Jing Yang Group, resigned this morning and flew to Italy. The specific reason remained unknown!”.

Four and a half years had already passed. In Yi Yuan Community in D City.

“Let bygones be bygones. It's too late. I will love you again. The white clouds twined around the blue sky…”

A fair and slender hand took the phone from the bedside table. “Lili… What? You want me to pinch-hit for you again? But I'm going to accompany Jiu Jiu to a parent-child class today. Well… All right.”

“Mommy…” A child's sweet voice sounded with protest and dissatisfaction.

After hanging up the phone, Su Ruowan bent over and kissed her daughter's soft face. “Baby, sorry for waking you up. Go back to sleep now.”

Jiu Jiu's two delicate little eyebrows immediately relaxed. She turned over like a lazy cat and fell asleep again. .

An hour later. “Rise and shine!” Su Ruowan walked to the bedside and said softly.

Jiu Jiu sat up from the bed and rubbed her eyes. Her long black hair was in disarray, drooping from her shoulders. And her pretty little face still looked sleepy.

Su Ruowan quickly changed her clothes and said, “Baby, Mommy has something to tell you. You remember Aunt Wu, right?

Aunt Wu is taking her boyfriend home today, so Mommy has to take her place at work. I can't go to the parent-child class with you. But, to make it up to you, we'll have deep-fried shrimps for dinner tonight. Will that be okay?”

“Okay,”Jiu Jiu replied with a nod. She then raised her white and delicate hand, gave Su Ruowan a thumbs up, and said, “For the sake of the shrimps, I forgive you.”

Su Ruowan smiled and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead. “You're such a good girl!”

Jiu Jiu then got down from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth.

Watching her beautiful and obedient daughter, a sense of happiness filled Su Ruowan's heart. .

After eating breakfast together, Su Ruowan sent Jiu Jiu to the kindergarten and talked to the teacher. She bowed to the teacher again and again while apologizing.

She was always absent in every parent-child activity because of work. She knew she was an irresponsible mother.

Before she could feel guilty, she looked at the time on her watch. Seeing that it was almost nine o'clock, she rushed to the company.

She arrived late, and everyone had already changed their clothes.

“Sorry, I'm late. Give me five minutes. I'll get changed right away.” Su Ruowan apologized to her coworkers repeatedly. Although she would only work on behalf of Wu Lili today, she still felt it was inappropriate to be late.

The moment Wang Zijian saw Su Ruowan, his eyes lit up at once. He really never hid his affection for her. “It's okay, Ruowan. Everyone knows that you are a substitute today. Here's your uniform. Take your time. We'll wait for you.”

“Well, Mr. Wang, that's actually not what you said just now. You've just yelled at us like a devil, haven't you?” Wu Yaxin, who was wearing a low-cut sleeveless dress, said sourly. She rolled her eyes and fanned herself with her hand.

Su Ruowan took the uniform from Wang Zijian and went to the dressing room to change. Wang Zijian was her senior in college, and he was the one who introduced her to this company. She knew that he had feelings for her, but she always pretended not to know.

“What? Can't I blame you? Don't you know that you are so slow? Who's the leader here, you or me? And look at what you're wearing! Hurry up and change that! You are working as an etiquette girl, not a call girl!” With his hands on his waist, Wang Zijian scolded Wu Yaxin. He showed no respect for her at all.

“You… Humph!” Wu Yaxin was so angry that her eyebrows raised. But Wang Zijian was the deputy manager, so she could only stamp her feet, turn around, and go to the dressing room.

Soon enough, Su Ruowan and Wu Yaxin walked out of the dressing room together after changing their clothes.

Actually, their uniform was just a simple, short red cheongsam. But when Su Ruowan wore it, it looked so beautiful and attractive. Her shoulders, waist, breasts, and buttocks were all perfectly curved, giving her an hourglass figure. Added with her beautiful and angelic face, she could pull off any outfit better than most women.

“Ruowan…” Wang Zijian's eyes were full of admiration. “Well, look at you. You are really more suitable to be an etiquette girl than Wu Lili.”

Su Ruowan pulled the hem of her dress down and said anxiously, “Mr. Wang, this dress… Isn't it a bit too short?”

“This is actually the latest and improved model. The previous one didn't stand out in the industry at all,”Wang Zijian replied proudly. “This new dress makes you look young and beautiful. Don't you think so? By the way, because of your commendable performance last time, even the dignified Dacheng Company has hired us.”

Su Ruowan was rendered speechless. . .

She kept on pulling the hem of her dress down, feeling uncomfortable. Fortunately, she thought of wearing her leggings today. Otherwise, she would look indecent if she wasn't careful enough.

“Humph! Don't pretend to look pure. Don't act like you haven't worn this kind of dress before.”
