In the living room on the first floor, two figures, one large and one small, were lying on the floor, meditating hard on the chess game in front of them. Xia Guaiguai held a large inflatable mallet in his hand and laughed wildly from time to time.
"Hahaha...Grandpa, you lost again! I'll punish you!" Then a mallet hit Qin Hansheng's head.
Qin Hansheng was unusually lifeless, and in the end the two of them started laughing again.
On the way home, Xia Tong asked Guaiguai in confusion: "Before dinner, didn't you say that grandpa was serious and unlovable? Why did you get along so well with him later?"
Xia looked at her obediently and said righteously: "Mommy, don't you know that pleasing your father-in-law is what every daughter-in-law should do?"
"……." Xia Tong: = =!!
Little Guaiguai didn't notice the frozen expression on Xia Tong's face, and continued: "I seriously considered it later. Since Grandpa Serious is the father of Handsome Brother, and I want to marry Handsome Brother, so I just want to please Grandpa Serious."
[Xia Tong: The call is imminent, okay = =!]! For the sake of my handsome brother, I also want Grandpa Serenity to like me, so that when I marry my handsome brother in the future, Grandpa Serenity won’t
Prevent."
Qin Mujie, who was driving the car, laughed out loud. Xia Tong touched her daughter's head and said with a smile: "Hehehe... My dear, why are you so smart? You are smarter than your mother."
There are so many things you can do..."
***** *****
Xia Tong and Qin Mushie prepared for another two weeks, finalizing the location, method, and activities of the day one by one. This morning, Xia Tong took the wedding invitation and planned to go back to NES to give a few gifts.
Give a copy to a colleague you’ve been friends with in the past.
In the employee leisure cafe, Mina took the wedding invitation and said: "It was clearly promised that I would get married first, but you got there before me."
Xia Tong stroked his lower abdomen: "There's nothing I can do, my belly won't wait for you."
Mina's hand holding the coffee cup shook, and she asked with interest: "What? There's it again?" Seeing Xia Tong nod, she couldn't help but sigh: "Qin Mujue is really fast, accurate, and ruthless in doing things, and he gets it right in one step!"
"Ahem..." Xia Tong almost choked on a mouthful of milk: "You should be almost done, right?"
"Almost, I still have a month or two left."
"When can we meet and have dinner together? I haven't talked to Xiang Yuan in many years."
Mina nodded: "Okay, Xiang Yuan has always wanted to see you. But I guess it won't be possible during this period. My resignation this time is actually a breach of contract and I am entangled by the company. When I clear up the contract, we will
Let’s have a meal together.”
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Xia Tong paused and said, "An artist's breach of contract should be serious, right?"
Mina nodded and rubbed her temples nervously: "I didn't expect it to be so serious in advance. If I had known, I shouldn't have signed the contract for five years. If there is a breach of contract, liquidated damages plus attorney fees, etc., I'm afraid
Without tens of millions, the company will not let it go easily."
"So serious?" Xia Tong clicked his tongue: "Maybe you can go to Gu Haoran to beg for mercy. I think he is a very reasonable boss, and maybe he will let you go."
Mina looked at her and smiled with ulterior motives: "Do you really think that Gu Haoran is a big philanthropist who keeps tens of millions of dollars? Don't forget, he is a businessman, and businessmen are only interested in profit. No matter how reasonable and gentle he is,
Kiss, all under the premise of profit. Now I'm leaving. If he doesn't use this to blackmail me, it's considered a good thing, so how can he let go so easily?" She paused: "Besides, take 10,000 steps back.
He said that he really wanted to let me go and let me easily terminate the contract without paying any price. This just set a precedent. In the future, wouldn't it be easy for other NES artists to terminate their contracts and find new jobs?"
Xia Tong was slightly startled: "I considered the problem too simply."
"But this time he didn't make it too difficult for me." Mina said, "I think part of the reason is because of you."
"Me?" Xia Tong held the spoon and said nothing.
"Are you really not going to tell him about the marriage?"
Xia Tong: "I don't know what to say..."
"It's okay if you don't say it... There is indeed something wrong with him during this period..." Mina paused, looking a little hesitant, but finally couldn't say anything. She stood up and stretched out her hand towards her: "Happy wedding."
***** *****
After sending out all the invitations, Xia Tong took the elevator downstairs and was about to leave. When he reached the door, a very familiar silver-gray Lamborghini stopped at the door.
The driver's door opened and Gu Haoran walked out. At the same time, another sexy and voluptuous woman also walked out of the passenger seat, stuck to his side, hugged one of his arms, and smiled softly and lingeringly.
This scene was so embarrassing that Xia Tong lowered her head and wanted to slip away. When she passed by, he stopped her and called her: "Xia Tong..."
Xia Tong paused, turned his head, and smiled: "Gu Haoran, long time no see."
He let go of the beauty's hand and walked up to her, his eyes bright and clear: "Why are you here today?"
Uh... Xia Tong suddenly realized that there were still a few unfinished invitations in his hand, and hurriedly put his hands away: "Nothing, I just came to chat with an old friend..."
This action was so obvious that Gu Haoran could see through her little movements at a glance. He leaned over and asked, "What are you holding in your hand?"
"Nothing..." Xia Tong retreated in panic, but accidentally bumped into someone, and the invitations in his hand were scattered on the floor.
"I'm sorry..." Xia Tong quickly apologized to the person who was hit behind him, then bent down to pick up the invitations, but a pair of long arms suddenly stretched out and picked up one of them.
"No!" Xia Tong wanted to stop him, but it was too late...
Gu Haoran opened it, his expression remained unchanged, but the temperature in his eyes was quietly freezing. Xia Tong stood in front of him, feeling like a primary school student who had done something wrong, embarrassed and at a loss.
"Are you getting married?" After a while, he closed the invitation and asked calmly.
Xia Tong nodded.
"Congratulations." He handed the invitation to her.
Xia Tong took back the invitation, but couldn't say the word 'thank you' anymore.
The beauty who had been neglected for a long time came up to her, looked at Xia Tong in front of her with a bit of hostility, and asked: "Hao Ran, who is this?"
"An employee, a former designer." He explained calmly.
"Oh..." the beauty drawled, and the hostility in her eyes immediately turned into disdain.
The two people in front of her made her feel a little embarrassed. Xia Tong said, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
"Yes." He responded without saying anything else, holding the beauty's hand and walking towards the building.
