“Okay, so?”
“I told everyone but no one paid attention to me,” Huo Mian said with difficulty.
“They must all have thought that you were joking. After all, you are the deputy director of the hospital, how could you be unemployed?” Qin Chu put his hand on Huo Mian’s shoulder.
“But I did get fired. Do you think they’ll even pay me for this month?”
Qin Chu was speechless.
“Honey, you’re the biggest owner of GK, a business behemoth in Asia. Don’t be so helpless, okay?”
“So what if I’m the biggest owner? Even as the biggest owner, I can’t print money. The money didn’t appear from nowhere.”
“Then you can rest assured. If the hospital doesn’t give you this month’s salary, I will go ask for you.”
“Good.” Huo Mian nodded hard.
“Did you not have dinner yet?”
“I’ve been waiting for you,” Huo Mian continued to act demurely.
What the kids said wasn’t wrong at all. Mommy just wanted to be the baby tonight for no reason.
“Then go eat dinner. Otherwise it’ll get cold.”
“Honey, let’s go eat at Ah-Xin’s Ramen, shall we?”
Huo Mian suddenly came up with that idea.
“Now?” Qin Chu was making sure he heard correctly.
“Yes.” She nodded.
“Sure, let’s go. Since the car hasn’t parked in the garage yet.”
Qin Chu was really spoiling his wife to the extreme, and agreed to everything Huo Mian said.
Watching Qin Chu touching Huo Mian on the shoulder while walking out together, Little Bean pouted, “Who knows where Mommy is bringing Daddy out to. Is she trying to get money from Daddy?”
“Not necessary. I think it is because Mommy is going to give birth to our little brother soon so she’s feeling more insecure. Maybe she just wants to look for some purpose in life,” said Pudding.
After Qin Chu and Huo Mian drove out in their car, the bodyguards’ car automatically followed them out.
Qin Chu didn’t mention anything about the hospital and neither did Huo Mian.
She knew that her husband was getting more nervous now and wouldn’t talk about secrets anywhere outside of the house.
– At Ah-Xin’s Ramen –
Maybe due to the fact that it was Friday night, it was still super busy.
Even in this cold weather, people were lining up in front of the shop.
“You two are here.” The owner was really excited when he saw Qin Chu and Huo Mian.
“Yes.”
“Please wait a little, the table over there is almost done.”
“Don’t worry. We’ll wait. No rush.”
Huo Mian wasn’t frustrated from being fired, but felt rather relaxed.
“Are you cold? Let’s wait in the car.”
Qin Chu was worried that Huo Mian was cold, and didn’t want her to stand by the door. After all, the wind was pretty strong here.
Huo Mian shook her head and extended her hands to cover Qin Chu’s ears with a smile.
“Honey, see isn’t my temperature pretty high? Isn’t it warm?”
“Yes.”
Mr. Qin was still speaking as if each word costs money.
At this time, there was a young couple walking out after finishing their ramen. They were still wearing school uniforms so obviously they were students at the 2nd High School.
When they walked by Huo Mian, the girl wearing glasses suddenly screamed, which startled Huo Mian a little.
“Wow, are you… our alumni Huo Mian?”
“Eh, yes I am.” Huo Mian nodded.
“I’ve heard that both you and your husband love eating ramen. I was even thinking why I’ve never run into you before. Now I know it’s true!” The girl was really excited.
“I do enjoy eating ramen.” Huo Mian lovingly looked at her alumni who looked like she was only sixteen to seventeen.
Afterward, the girl immediately took out a pen and a diary from her backpack.
“You want an autograph right?”
As Huo Mian was reaching out to the pen, something awkward happened.
“Huo Mian, could you please let your husband give me his autograph? Qin Chu, he… he is so… so handsome.” The little girl was feeling starstruck.
Both Huo Mian and Qin Chu were speechless.
“So awkward…” Huo Mian looked down and murmured.
“No way will I give you an autograph.” Qin Chu directly refused her without hesitation.
“Why…” The little girl felt sad.
“Because you just made my wife feel awkward,” said Mr. Qin confidently.
It was alright if he didn’t say so, but after this Huo Mian felt even more awkward.
