CH 8
Father Bai’s surgery went smoothly. According to Doctor Zhang’s instructions, he could be discharged after two more days of observation. After a month, he had to come back for chemotherapy and Chinese medicine treatment.
Bai Zhen Zhen was exhilarated, but Father Bai forehead was constantly knitted, feeling like he was a burden who was spending too much of his family’s money.
Bai Zhen Zhen sat by the bedside gently encouraging her father: “Dad, I’ve told you before. I’ve already prepared the money so you can relax and focus on getting better. Once you’re cured completely, we will also save money compared to repeatedly spending to treat your symptoms, right?”
“That makes sense, but I have never been able to afford anything good for you since young. Now that you’ve painstakingly earned some money, you still have to support me…”
Father Bai’s words revolved around these few lines, such that even Yang Su Ping got tired of hearing it, spitting out: “Then don’t stop your daughter from becoming someone else’s secretary! A hundred thousand dollars a month, it’s enough to pay for your surgery.”
Huo Xiang was also shocked when he heard her words: “A hundred thousand dollars a month?! What kind of company secretary is that, to serve men?!”
“How could it be just a secretary position!” Father Bai continued where Huo Xiang had left off, his mouth twisted in scorn, “A hundred thousand just to serve water and tea? He is definitely forcing my daughter into doing unspeakable things! We can’t fall for it!”
Bai Zhen Zhen held back a laugh: “Dad, secretaries these days don’t just serve water and tea…”
“No matter what, I disapprove! It’ll be over my dead body before I let you suffer!” Father Bai put his foot down.
Bai Zhen Zhen was moved in her heart. She smiled, taking the initiative for the first time to hold her father’s hands, saying: “Rest assured, dad. I’ve already found a good job.”
Father Bai asked: “Right, what do you do at your job? The boss is really willing to give you an advance of half a year’s worth of salary?”
Bai Zhen Zhen nodded her head heavily.
Taking this opportunity, she quickly nipped the problem in the bud.
“Dad, I signed a contract with the company for them to give me an advance in salary to prepare the money for your treatment. However, the contract stipulates that I will have to travel from the next month onwards, and it could be up to a year and a half before I can come back.”
“So long?! Where will you be going?!” Father Bai anxiously gripped onto Bai Zhen Zhen’s hand.
“The destination hasn’t been confirmed yet, but it should be in the northern areas.” Bai Zhen Zhen casually added on, “After all, our company is thinking of expanding into that area…”
Yang Su Ping eyed her suspiciously: “Saying so much, you still haven’t told us which company it is! You can’t be thinking of abandoning your father and I, right?!”
“Su Ping, what are you saying! You should know better what kind of person Zhen Zhen is!” Father Bai was slightly angered.
Bai Zhen Zhen guiltily swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
—— System: “What a simple-minded trusting father! Host, doesn’t your conscience hurt?”
—— Bai Zhen Zhen: “Do you have any recommendations for a more cost-effective holiday experience?”
—— System: “Sorry, I’ll see myself out.”
Talking about Bai Zhen Zhen’s company and work, the sensitive Huo Xiang took the opportunity to start his performance at the right time.
“Uncle Bai, Aunty Yang, when I went out when Zhen Zhen to buy things yesterday, she told me about her company. It was a big company! The kind with an English name! My colleague and I wanted to get in, but couldn’t!” Huo Xiang lied without batting an eyelid.
Yang Su Ping laughed derisively: “With her qualifications? A high school graduate? She could still make it into an English company?”
“What English company, it’s called an MNC!” Father Bai seriously corrected, before looking at Bai Zhen Zhen again, “Zhen Zhen, no wonder you won’t mention the company name to us. Even if you did, we wouldn’t understand…”
He laughed foolishly.
Huo Xiang opened his mouth again: “Uncle Bai, relax! Zhen Zhen is currently working at an upright company. They felt that she had plenty of experience in society, and thus trusts her greatly.”
Hearing Huo Xiang say it with such confidence, Father Bai finally let down his guard.
Bai Zhen Zhen thought she had just gotten over the issue, and was about to celebrate.
Before she could be happy, an even more troubling matter was brought up.
“Zhen Zhen, you’re all grown up and mature already. We don’t need to worry about your work matters anymore either… Now, the most important thing is to find a boyfriend, quickly get married and have a family together. That way, your mom and I can finally let go of our worries…”
Father Bai’s words was completely in form with what Yang Su Ping wanted.
She always had the belief that it was better to marry well than to work well.
Her ex-husband had very good qualifications, and they passed their days in comfort. Unfortunately, she gave birth to a daughter, and her husband’s side of the family began to look down on her. Once her ex-husband passed away, the family assets were snatched away by her mother-in-law, leaving nothing behind for her and her daughter.
If it wasn’t because she was a widow, she wouldn’t have gotten together with Bai Zhen Zhen’s father to suffer together.
“That’s right, Zhen Zhen. I’ve told you many times to find a man to marry when you’re young. It’s more worth it than going out to work on your own! It’s best to find a rich family to marry into. It doesn’t matter if they’ve married before, what’s important is that they can support the family and take care of your father!” Yang Su Ping continued from Father Bai’s words.
Father Bai’s forehead wrinkled up again: “Su Ping, what you said is wrong. Marriage is a decision of a lifetime, how could you just look at wealth?”
He turned back to Bai Zhen Zhen: “Zhen Zhen, your mom just wants you to live a better life. But family condition is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he truly treats you well. Only then can I marry you out without worries.”
Bai Zhen Zhen massaged her forehead.
In the real world, she was chased by her parents on the topic of a boyfriend. Why couldn’t she escape this curse in this experience world either?!
“Dad, I have plans. You don’t have to worry about this.”
Yang Su Ping suddenly recalled the boss from the office yesterday, asking: “Ah, Zhen Zhen, that big boss that invited you to be his secretary, is he interested in you?”
Huo Xiang was balancing a plate on his legs in the bed next door. Turning his head to look curiously at Yang Su Ping, he bit into a watermelon slice: “Oh, what big boss?”
“Don’t speak without thinking. The other party is a CEO, how could he be interested in me!” Bai Zhen Zhen gave Yang Su Ping a sharp look.
At this point, Yang Su Ping’s big mouth sounded like an old hag in brothels selling the girls.
“You’re right. No matter looks, temperament or even qualifications, your younger sister excels over you. How could that big boss like you!” Yang Su Ping laughed lightly, suddenly brainlessly exclaiming: “Ah, could it be that the big boss likes Meng Ru, but is too embarrassed to confess, so he purposely approached her family?!”
Bai Zhen Zhen responded seriously: “Then he should invite you to be his secretary, after all you are Meng Ru’s closest family.”
“You’re right…” Yang Su Ping listlessly muttered, “Did he find the wrong person? Or maybe he doesn’t know that you and Meng Ru are not blood related sisters…”
Bai Zhen Zhen: “…”
Father Bai gave Yang Su Ping a look, and pressed his lips into a line, unhappily saying: “Don’t talk about that big boss any more. I don’t think he’s any good, unlike Lil’ Huo!”
Huo Xiang, who was eating melon by the side, was suddenly dragged in. He immediately lifted his head.
The words “I don’t dare” were written all over his face, but deep in his heart he couldn’t be more proud.
“Uncle Bai, you’re joking. How could I compare to a CEO…”
“How can you not? I feel that you look better than him, and your personality is also good. I prefer you!” Father Bai righteously proclaimed. He squinted slightly at Huo Xiang, sizing him up, “That… Lil’ Huo, do you have a girlfriend?”
Bai Zhen Zhen: ???
