Chapter 237: Girl, This Is Exciting!

Originally, Lin Yiqian was thinking about whether she should tell Fang Heyang about why he got laid off.

However, sensing that Fang Heyang did not seem to really care, she decided not to bring it up.

It was normal for a person like him to not be affected. With his family background, working was merely one of the optional experiences in life.

“Why haven’t you been to the flagship store?” Fang Heyang asked, suddenly.

“How do you know that?” Lin Yiqian asked, confused.

“I’ve been working at the flagship store as a salesperson for quite a few days now,” Fang Heyang replied.

As he spoke, he leaned proudly against the wall behind him.

‘Huh?’ Lin Yiqian frowned in disbelief.

“Have you really become a salesperson at our flagship store?”

Why was she not informed about it?

However, the recruiters would not have needed to inform her about who they hired. The store manager could have made the decision with her consent.

How bored was he?

“Have you noticed that the sales of your flagship store have increased significantly?” Fang Heyang asked proudly as he brushed his hair with one finger.

This explained why the sales over the past two days had increased by four to five times.

Lin Yiqian thought it was because of their successful endorsement campaign.

Unsure of whether to laugh or cry, she tilted her head. “You have such a bright future. Why are you selling cosmetic products?”

“What do you mean? My parents earn so little. They can’t even support me financially.” Fang Heyang complained.

“Girl, don’t listen to him. His grandmother had left him with two bungalows. They are worth billions now. Rent alone would have earned him hundreds of thousands each month.” A familiar old man’s voice could be heard to their left.

Lin Yiqian turned her head in the direction of the voice subconsciously.

Was this not the barber she had met before?

Lin Yiqian looked curiously at the old man who was leaning against the door while he smiled at her.

When he noticed that Lin Yiqian was staring at him, his smile widened. “Girl, this is exciting!”

Lin Yiqian rolled her eyes.

‘Old man, you’re too open-minded!’ She thought to herself.

By now, Lin Yiqian already figured out that this old man must have been Fang Heyang’s grandfather.

“Weren’t you watching some videos?” Fang Heyang glared at the old man.

“All of the videos you have downloaded for me are of old women dancing. What’s the point in watching that? I want those with young girls.”

Lin Yiqian felt speechless as she observed the interaction between the pair of grandfather and grandson.

“Mommy,” Lin Xiaoyu suddenly called out fearfully from inside the room.

Panicked, Lin Yiqian immediately charged into the room without saying a word to Fang Heyang.

Lin Xiaoyu was already sitting up in the bed. Lin Yiqian could see some blood flowing into the tube connected to his hand.

‘Darn it!’ Lin Yiqian cursed at herself. She lifted Xiaoyu’s wrist to make sure that the drip was still working before placing his hand down gently.

“Chief Lin, this child…” Fang Heyang’s voice came from behind her all of a sudden.

Surprised, Lin Yiqian turned her head around to find him standing by the door. He was staring at Xiaoyu with a look of surprise on his face.

Recalling that he had met Xiaoyu at the airport before, he must have recognized who the child was.

Whilst Lin Yiqian thought about how she should reply to him, Lin Xiaoyu suddenly spoke. “Mommy, who is this big brother?”

Surprised by how Xiaoyu addressed Lin Yiqian as his mother, Fang Heyang remained silent for a moment. “Chief Lin, have you accepted the child this soon?”

Lin Yiqian was quiet.

Was there a misunderstanding?

Chapter 238: I Met Your Mother Too Late

When Fang Heyang last bumped into Gu Nianshen with Xiaoyu, he had assumed that Xiaoyu was a child Gu Nianshen had with another woman.

Since Lin Yiqian did not know how to explain herself, she decided to carry on with the misunderstanding.

Naturally, Fang Heyang now believed that Lin Yiqian was Xiaoyu’s stepmother.

Lin Yiqian sighed as she tucked Xiaoyu under the covers. “Why don’t you hurry up and help your grandfather out with downloading the videos?”

“I’m extremely bored.” Fang Heyang replied before walking casually to the couch and sitting down while his legs rested on the coffee table.

Fang Heyang then raised his hands lazily before placing them behind his head in a classic bossy manner.

There was a saying that time will reveal a person’s true colors. Certainly, Lin Yiqian’s first impression of Fang Heyang had changed.

If Fang Heyang were to become an actor, he would definitely win over the hearts of many.

“Big Brother, do you like my Mommy?” Lin Xiaoyu asked curiously. There was a defensive quality to his tone.

Xiaoyu wondered if this man was here to take his Mommy away from his Daddy.

Lin Yiqian felt speechless.

This little fellow seemed to be much more experienced despite having only been away for a few days.

In America, Lin Yiqian was always surrounded by men. Some neighbors would even introduce themselves enthusiastically. Each time, Lin Yiqian would simply bring Xiaoyu to meet them.

Those who could not accept becoming a stepfather would choose to back away immediately. However, there were some men who did not mind and would still pursue her.

Although Xiaoyu did not like any of them, he did not know how to express his feelings. Under such circumstances, Xiaoyu would directly hug Lin Yiqian’s leg and pout at the men. In fact, he would even challenge them to compete in urinating and only allowed them to date his mother if they won.

To Xiaoyu, his deceased father was the greatest hero. Therefore, he was adamant about it.

However, apart from Gu Nianshen, there was no other man who existed in the world who would compete with a kid at such a childish game.

Meanwhile, Lin Yiqian would never stop them from competing as she intentionally wanted those men to back off on their own.

Therefore, Gu Nianshen had become the only man whom Xiaoyu could accept as the perfect candidate to replace his father.

It must have had something to do with their blood ties.

While Lin Yiqian remained lost in her thoughts, Fang Heyang began to chat with Xiaoyu. “I feel that I have met your mother too late,” Fang Heyang replied after much thought.

Lin Yiqian glared at Fang Heyang in a threatening way.

She wanted to end the conversation for fear that he might have a negative influence on Xiaoyu.

“What do you mean?” Lin Xiaoyu asked with a serious look on his face.

“It means that when I have become acquainted with your mother, she has already married your father. We knew each other far too late,” Fang Heyang explained in simpler terms.

“Oh.” Xiaoyu nodded despite not fully understanding what Fang Heyang had meant.

This was such a strange uncle. Xiaoyu could not understand a word he had said.

***

Gu Nianshen stared at the phone in front of him on the desk. Meanwhile, there was an ashtray with several snuffed out cigarettes that were only smoked halfway through.

As he thought of how Lin Yiqian had gone to meet another man in the middle of the night, Gu Nianshen felt a need to vent.

Finally, the screen of his phone lit up. As soon as he saw who the call was from, he quickly picked it up.
