In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 185: Return to the Company
Chapter 185: Chapter 185: Return to the Company
Liang Shiyu didn’t know what had happened in a moment, and although her expression was not pleasant, she didn’t talk back at all.
Perhaps it was out of fear that Xie Linchuan or Old Master Xie would become angry that she swallowed her pride and held her tongue.
Just as He Shuying couldn’t help but almost speak up to stop her sister-in-law with the sadly lacking brain, Aunt He began asking Xu Jinzhi.
Xu Jinzhi, however, had no intention of answering, and simply watched Aunt He with a cold gaze, which intimidated Aunt He into halting her words.
He Shuying couldn’t help but roll her eyes—what strange people were these?
This unpleasant episode quickly passed, and the New Year went by day by day.
On the sixth day, Xu Zhen came back, and Xu Jinzhi along with Xie Yanchuan took Tuantuan back to the Xu Family.
Xu Zhen had brought back gifts for Tuantuan on this trip, but he brought back the most gifts for Xu Jinzhi, who said with a smile, "I knew you cared about me the most."
Xu Zhen just snorted coldly, obviously feeling that Xu Jinzhi was just buttering him up.
But to Xu Zhen, he indeed cared more about Xu Jinzhi, and his liking for Tuantuan was because Tuantuan was Xu Jinzhi’s child—this was why he was fond of him.
In the end, Xu Jinzhi was his child.
There was nothing wrong with him loving Xu Jinzhi most.

By the eighth day, Xu Jinzhi got up early, made sure Tuantuan was well fed and hydrated, and then Xie Yanchuan held Tuantuan while Xu Jinzhi went to wash and put on makeup.
After getting ready simply, Xu Jinzhi went downstairs for breakfast, and Tuantuan was still in Xie Yanchuan’s arms, not even set down for breakfast.
"Today is the first day of work after the New Year, and it might be quite busy, I’ll try to come back for lunch as soon as possible," Xu Jinzhi said while having breakfast.
Because Xu Jinzhi had to work, she had previously stored some breast milk in the freezer, even though Xie Yanchuan said that as long as the storage method was correct, the frozen breast milk would still be nutritious.
But Xu Jinzhi didn’t understand all of that, and considering Tuantuan was a preemie, even though he was now growing up well, she still felt it was best if Tuantuan could eat fresh milk.
"Don’t worry, Tuantuan will be fine with me, and he also has his own provisions at home, he won’t go hungry," Xie Yanchuan said soothingly.
He always supported Xu Jinzhi’s decisions and didn’t think there was anything wrong with her going back to work now.
Thus, Xu Jinzhi appeared at the company early in the morning, during the peak hour of work when many colleagues were around, and many people saw Xu Jinzhi.
"Morning, Mr. Xu."
"Happy New Year, Mr. Xu."
It was almost a chorus of these two greetings, and Xu Jinzhi nodded slightly, "Happy New Year."
Seeing the crowd, Xu Jinzhi didn’t join them in the elevator but headed to a private elevator on the side.
She swiped her card to enter the elevator, her action fluent as if she had completely forgotten the previous accident that occurred inside an elevator. freewebnoveℓ.com
Xu Jinzhi reached her own office floor, where her direct subordinates all knew that she would return to work after the New Year, so they were not at all surprised to see her.
"Mr. Xu, you’re back," her colleagues said joyfully upon seeing Xu Jinzhi.
Xu Jinzhi nodded and greeted them back as she made her way to her office.
Her office had been empty for a while, and it felt somewhat stuffy upon entering, so Xu Jinzhi quickly opened the windows to air it out.
Even though it was cold, Xu Jinzhi endured it, knowing that such a strong breeze would surely refresh the office air in no time.
Xu Jinzhi sat at her own desk with a feeling of long absence.
Before long, Assistant Chen arrived in the office to give a simple report of the day’s schedule, then left the office.
Xu Jinzhi didn’t stay in the office for long before she went to the meeting room for a meeting, just like in previous years, the first thing on the first day back at work was the board meeting.
The meeting started with a round of pleasantries, and only after a considerable time did they proceed to the main topic.
When the meeting ended, it was already late, and Xu Jinzhi returned to her office to start her work.
Even though she had been absent from the company for a while, Xu Jinzhi was not unfamiliar with her work.
After busying herself for a while and seeing it was lunch break, Xu Jinzhi hurriedly left—Tuantuan was still at home waiting for her.
However, Xu Jizhi had over worried; upon returning home, Xie Yanchuan was seriously telling a story to Tuantuan.
And Tuantuan, despite not understanding a word, lay quietly in the crib without any sign of wanting to cry.
Nevertheless, Xu Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that there were no tears.
Xu Jinzhi first took care of Tuantuan’s meal and played with him for a while, and when he was about to fall asleep, she handed him over to the nanny.
Xu Jinzhi had her meal, but almost as soon as she finished, it was time for her to go back to the company.
Xie Yanchuan watched Xu Jinzhi’s busy schedule with a reluctant heart but said nothing more.
Although it hadn’t snowed in the past few days, the temperature was very low. Xu Jinzhi was worried Tuantuan might get cold going outside, so she decided to let the nanny bring Tuantuan to the company to see her after a while.
This would save her some time.
As the days passed, Xie Yanchuan returned to school, and everything was progressing smoothly.
Once Xu Jinzhi’s work was back on track, she also had spare time to take care of Zhao Qinghe.
Zhao Qinghe had spent the entire New Year period in the hospital. As for the Zhao family, although someone came to visit, it was unclear what was discussed, and they left without staying long.
It wasn’t until after the New Year that Zhao Qinghe returned to his job.
"Assistant Chen, help me arrange a meeting with someone from the Zhao family." They were planning to expand their business to city A, and given her initiative, they couldn’t ignore her.
"Okay." Assistant Chen didn’t ask any questions and left the office at once.
The next day, Assistant Chen informed Xu Jinzhi that the Zhao family had agreed to meet her.
Some things are most deadly when they strike at the heart.
The more Zhao Qinghe cared about something, the more Xu Jinzhi wanted to destroy it.
While dealing with Zhao Qinghe’s issues, Xu Jinzhi didn’t forget about Tuantuan’s hundred-day celebration.
Tuantuan was growing well and didn’t look like a premature baby at all.
As it was still somewhat cold in city A, Tuantuan was dressed warmly. When he smiled, he looked just like a little lucky doll.
For Tuantuan’s hundred-day celebration, the Xie family did things properly, but Xu Zhen quite generously gave Tuantuan ten percent of the Xu Group shares.
Everyone was initially a bit surprised, but soon they felt it was nothing unusual; after all, Xu Jinzhi was the Xu family’s only daughter.
Giving to the child was no different from giving to Xu Jinzhi.
Xu Jinzhi, holding Tuantuan, said in a soft voice, "Our Tuantuan must grow up healthy and happy."
