1399 Extreme Arrogance Will Cause One’s SufferingThe seniors in the department were almost driven mad by the new recruit, Deng Wenchang. “Minister, it’s a good thing that the youngsters have their own thinking, but Deng Wenchang is not just arrogant. He is rebellious! If we let him stay in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I am worried that something will happen sooner or later. Someone like him will affect our team spirit adversely.”He Yi was not angry and could still smile. “There is no hurry in this matter. Besides being a little hot-tempered, he didn’t make any major mistakes. We can wait a while more for some matters. Given Deng Wenchang’s temperament, I don’t think we will need to wait too long.”

He Yi was quite subtle with his words, but anyone who brought their brains to work understood him.

Deng Wenchang had two huge backers behind him: the Deng family and the Peng family. If they were to kick him out with the excuse that he could not get along with his colleagues and would affect the team unity, someone would harp on this issue and make a mountain out of a molehill of it. It would smear the ministry’s reputation too.

If the situation were to turn severe and other departments intervened in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it would be considered a real crisis to the seniors of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs then.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was such a united and friendly department. How could there possibly be a situation of ostracizing their colleague? Despite Deng Wenchang’s bad temper and poor relationship with everyone, as elders and seniors, they also had to adopt a forgiving attitude and guide Deng Wenchang more.

If they could not teach Deng Wenchang in the end and it was not suitable for Deng Wenchang to remain in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, at the very least, they had ‘worked hard’ before and had done their utmost to help him. Was that not a better outcome?

He Yi was a sly old fox who had been working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for so many years. If he did not have any capability, he would have been ousted long ago.

No matter how old and muddleheaded He Yi was, this veteran would not lose his footing just because of a newbie like Deng Wenchang.

Even if they had to make Deng Wenchang leave, the problem would not be with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs but with Deng Wenchang himself. Regardless of whoever wished to make use of Deng Wenchang to plot against the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it still depended on whether He Yi was willing to give the other party a chance to do so.

“Haha, that’s true.” Everyone had been colleagues for so many years. More or less, they understood what He Yi meant. When they heard He Yi’s words, everyone understood in their hearts that Deng Wenchang would run into bad luck sooner or later.

He was just a newbie and yet he treated the seniors with such arrogance. He would eventually suffer. In addition, he even dared to show his displeasure in front of their top superior. Deng Wenchang did not wish to continue staying in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs anymore. If not, what other reasons could it be?

It was true that a youngster knows no fear. He stretched out his neck and collided onto the blade of the knife on his own accord.

He Yi did not elaborate further. He told Qiao Nan briefly. “Qiao Nan, this is a good chance. You have to work hard. It is okay for that set of information to be taken away. I have one here too. After you bring it home, you have to find ways to understand it more.”

Qiao Nan nodded hard. “Minister He, rest assured. I will definitely do so.” She had the means to find out some information. Most importantly, Qiao Nan knew that she actually did not need to work so hard this time. She did not need to utilize any means at all.

However, Qiao Nan could not explain to He Yi too much at this moment. Obviously, if she were to tell He Yi that she personally knew the ambassador whom they were receiving this time, He Yi would not believe her.

Looking at the information that He Yi gave her, Qiao Nan returned home happily.

As soon as Qiao Nan arrived home, she threw the information on the table and was not bothered over it. After all, this set of information had the same content as the earlier one. Deng Wenchang had taken away the previous one, but Qiao Nan had read almost all of it and had memorized them.

In the absence of new information, there was no need for Qiao Nan to make things difficult for herself by memorizing the same things again.

“Mom, not working?” I a sweet voice, San Bao curiously asked her mother, who was keeping her company. She leaned her chubby body over to Qiao Nan. Of course, it was best that her mother could have more time to play with her.

However, the triplets were already used to the fact that their mother would not always be able to stay by their side and play with them all the time even if she was home. Mom was very, very, busy and had to write many, many, words.

In front of Qiao Nan, the triplets’ temper was still considered good. As long as they could see their mother when they lifted their heads, they would not kick up a fuss or insist that their mother stay by their side. Of course, it would be best if they could get a pleasant surprise like today.

“That’s right. Mom finished work early today. I can thus play with the three of you. Have you thought about the story that you want Mom to read to you tonight?” How could bedtime stories be missing in the children’s childhood?

As such, Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng’s bookshelves were filled with many useful books that the three children loved to read. It was uncertain whether the triplets had inherited Qiao Nan’s high intelligence. They were just three years old and could already recognize some simple words such as heaven, earth, and human.

They could also count numbers such as one, two, three, and four consecutively all the way until twenty or thirty.

“Really!” Before San Bao could speak, the eyes of cheeky Er Bao shone brightly, looking as good as stars. He walked over Qiao Nan. “Tell story. Three. Okay? Da Bao, me, San Bao. Each chooses one.” Er Bao stretched out his three stubby little fingers and counted at the same time.

Qiao Nan grabbed Er Bao’s hands and kissed the back of it. “Okay, three stories. Each of you picks one. However, if all of you fall asleep before Mom finishes the story, you can’t blame Mom, and you can’t say that I owe you the stories.”

The triplet’s IQ was not low. Even their EQ was so high that Qiao Nan could not take it.

The three children seldom watched television. Hence, she was not sure where the three of them heard from, but the little ones would say that one had to pay back what they owed.

Once, the smart and cheeky Er Bao used this method to lead Qiao Nan around the nose and almost made Qiao Nan owe the triplets two bedtime stories a day. Er Bao said that interests had to be paid. One story would become two, and two become three. Each additional day of owing would increase the number of stories by one.

This was the first time that Qiao Nan subdued the three ‘rebelling’ children using her status as a mother. Since that time, Qiao Nan had been more ‘careful’ when she was with them, deeply fearful that they would lead her by the nose again. If someone were to know this, Qiao Nan would feel so embarrassed.

Could it be that the baby brain effect was true? That one pregnancy could result in cognitive impairment for three years? Now, she could not even beat her own three-year-old kids?

When he heard his mother said that, Er Bao pouted unhappily. “Mom is too naughty. We are still young. Y-you have to give in to us.” Since that time, his mother had been extremely careful and did not give him any chance.
