Play coquettish with Joe

Chapter 9001 He doesn’t like to meddle in other people’s business (7)

Grandma Qing explained again and again.

Xiao Xi didn't seem to say much. One thousand yuan was still within her affordability.

"I'll call you tomorrow, don't treat Zheng Bao badly."

"Of course, of course, you see, Zheng Bao is fat and healthy. Don't tell me, mother-in-law, I have been a nanny for many years when I was young, so I have a lot of experience in raising babies!"

Xiao Sisi was also interested in this at first. She knew that Granny Qing was good at taking care of children.

So far, Zhengbao is doing well.

The only thing she was dissatisfied with was Grandma Qing's son. Although Alu didn't come home very often, when he did go back occasionally, he didn't care about the children at all.

A Lu often smokes and drinks in front of Zheng Bao.

With his sharp ears, Zheng Bao heard a similar voice.

"Auntie, auntie." Zhengbao thought that Xiao Xiang was here, dropped the comic, stood up and wanted to run out, "Where is auntie?"

Granny Qing grabbed him and showed him the video.

Zheng Bao pressed his phone against his phone and saw the portrait in the video.

Xiao seemed to have seen him too.

Zheng Bao's soft little face was pressed against the screen, and he smiled at Xiao, showing his pearly white teeth and two clearly visible dimples.

"Auntie." Zhengbao waved his little hand, "Zhengbao wants to care about you."

"Auntie misses you too."

"Auntie, I'm going to see the baby later."

"How about a few days? After a few days, my aunt will go see the baby. The baby is so cute. I really want to see it every day."

"Zundu is fake."

"Zundu."

"Hehe." Zheng Bao tilted his head, his big eyes like purple grapes, blinking.

Xiao Sisi and Zheng Bao had been chatting on video for a long time. When WeChat rang, she waved to Zheng Bao and was about to hang up the video.

She clicked on the WeChat message, and Mr. Xiao sent her some report modification details.

Xiao Mingzhang: Change it tomorrow.

Xiao SiSi: Mr. Xiao, the problem is not big, I can change it now.

Xiao Mingzhang: I don’t have the habit of squeezing my subordinates, and I don’t need to work during my breaks.

Xiao SiSi: Isn’t Mr. Xiao still working at this late hour?

Before Xiao Sisi had time to hang up the video, she accidentally touched the screenshot button and took a screenshot.

In the screenshot, Zheng Bao is covering his face and playing hide and seek with Xiao Xi.

In panic, Xiao Sisi immediately withdrew the screenshot.

She said a brief goodbye to Zheng Bao and hung up the video.

Xiao Mingzhang had sharp eyes. Although Xiao seemed to retreat instantly, he still saw the screenshot.

You just came back from the hospital not long ago, do you still have the energy to play video?

Xiao Mingzhang saw that there seemed to be a baby in the screenshot. He remembered that he had called Xiao Sisi earlier and there was a child's voice on the other end.

Where did the child come from? Her relative?

This answer does not exist. She grew up in an orphanage and has no relatives.

Xiao Sisi apologized quickly: I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I sent the wrong message.

Xiao Sisi: My health is okay now. I will revise the report and hand it over to Mr. Xiao tomorrow.

Xiao Mingzhang did not respond.

Xiao Si seemed to know that he was always aloof, and would often reply with a sentence or two and stop talking.

She was indeed in good spirits at the moment. All she could think about was Zheng Bao's cute little face. Talking to Zheng Bao made her feel much happier.

I don't know if it was because of alcohol or drugs, but Xiao Xi didn't seem to be very sleepy all night.

By early morning, she not only revised the report, but also completed all the remaining topics.

After correcting the report, she sent it to Xiao Mingzhang.

Still not feeling sleepy, Xiao seemed to stand up and open the apartment window.

The floor she lives on is not high, but she can see the rolling mountains not far away. The mountains are like huge trapped beasts, dormant on the edge of Xuanzhou City, surrounding the entire city.

The night sky is dim and the stars are brilliant.

Xiao Sisi poured a glass of hot water, hugged the water glass, and quietly looked at the city under the moonlight.

The undulating mountains not only surrounded Xuanzhou City, but also trapped her within it.

Can't get out, can't move. His pupils are filled with stars.

At this time, the mobile phone rang.

Um? Who sent her a message at this time?

Xiao Sisi walked to the living room holding the water glass.

It was Mr. Xiao.

He accepted her papers.

Xiao Sisi glanced at the time, it was almost one o'clock in the morning.

He is a patient and he is still not sleeping at this hour?

Xiao Sisi sent a few words: Mr. Xiao, are you still not asleep?

The person on the other end obviously didn't expect that she wasn't asleep either, so he replied with two words: No.

Xiao SiSi: Mr. Xiao, go to bed early, the work is never finished.

Xiao Mingzhang: Yeah.

After a long time, Xiao Sisi typed a few more words: Mr. Xiao, do you want to listen to the truth?

Xiao Mingzhang: Say.

Xiao Sisi: Xiao has no advantages in the Ηβ project.

There was no reply to her for a long time.

Xiao Sisi's heart quickened, wondering if he had offended Xiao Mingzhang.

But truth be told, that's it.

Xiao was facing an extremely excellent team from Professor Krutch from abroad. This gap could not be bridged by Xiao Mingzhang alone.

It's not worth the gain to drag down your body for a project with a low chance of winning.

Xiao is not worth it.

Xiao Sisi was sitting on the sofa, holding a hot water cup.

It was so peaceful late at night that she could even hear her own heartbeat.

Suddenly, the phone rang and Xiao Mingzhang called her.

Xiao Sisi calmed down for a few seconds. She knew that with Xiao Mingzhang's gentlemanly demeanor, he would not get angry with her.

She picked up.

The slightly hoarse voice with a deep tone said slowly: "Why do you think so? Huh?"

"Mr. Xiao, I have been following the project for a long time. Although I am only working on one of its branches, I feel that Xiao has no advantage. For a project without advantages, I think... Mr. Xiao should do more to take good care of it. Own."

"Work is everything to me. If I can't give my best to a project, then my life will lose its meaning."

A trace of surprise flashed in Xiao Silike's eyes.

"But...Mr. Xiao...you should take care of your health, work is not everything."

"Are you lecturing me?"

"No."

“Do your job well.”

"I will." Xiao seems to be very calm, "Mr. Xiao, you are still in the hospital, go to bed early. If you feel that you are not sleeping well, I can give you some prescriptions to help you sleep next time. It's my dad. The recipe left behind.”

She just mentioned it casually, but Xiao Mingzhang responded lightly, as if he acquiesced.

Then he hung up the phone.

Xiao Sisi didn't bother him again.

She closed her eyes slightly, thinking of Xiao Mingzhang's lonely and lonely back on Liangshan Mountain.

His back and pupils often showed desolation, that desolation, like a lone wolf lost in the desert, walking alone and unable to find its way back.

He said work is everything to him.

No, how can work be everything to a person?

Xiao Sisi stood up again.

She opened the locked drawer. Inside the drawer were some folk remedies handwritten by her father.

These folk remedies were all unique and unique after spending many years by her father. She would often study these things left by her father.
