Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

“Your dad went to the office and the two babies went to school. Your brother …” Yami Hu bristled unhappily, got up, and looked at Zoey before saying, “Went to the hospital to see Nabi Yan. Come, come and eat breakfast. I’ve asked Chen’s mother to heat it all up in the kitchen.”
“Oh.” Zoey followed Yami Hu into the kitchen.
Knowing that she still had a lump in her heart about Nabi Yan, she said, “Mom, don’t have any preconceived notions about your sister-in-law either …”
“Eh, don’t shout nonsense! What sister-in-law now?”
Zoey laughed, “Why are you still acting like a child?”
“Just you and your brother two stupid! That kind of scandal, and still can not take it seriously. Look at your brother, now and then still go to see her, outsiders know, still think that our Baker family how precious this unknowing daughter-in-law. I don’t know, what’s so beautiful about it, looking at it, her leg is still the same, isn’t it?”
“Mom …” Zoey looked at her so helplessly.
“Don’t say that, Nabi’s leg is broken, no one is comfortable. It’s very sad for a nice girl to walk with crutches and a wheelchair in the future.”
Hearing her daughter say that, Yami Hu’s expression also eased a little. She brought out the porridge for her daughter and sat down with her at the table before saying, “I don’t know if that girl has a good or bad life, but this time it’s a blessing in disguise.”
“Hmm? What makes you say that?” Zoey slurped her porridge and swallowed.
“I heard your brother say that since he returned to China, every time he went back to the hospital, Jerry was there to take care of her. The two of them seem to be getting married in the future. This woman na, this life can find no matter what happens to their own man, really not easy.”
Yami Hu rambled on, not noticing that Zoey was frozen in place.
The spoon in his hand rests on the rim of the bowl, trembling gently, hesitating to drop the next bite.
“Eh, why aren’t you eating? Is it because you have a bad appetite?” Only then did Yami Hu notice the difference in her daughter.
“No, no …” fearing that she would see something, Zoey quickly lowered her head and hastily scooped a mouthful into her mouth. It was so hot that tears almost seeped out of her eyes, but she didn’t stop, she just kept drinking.
“Zoey , are you okay?” Yami Hu looked at her trembling hands with worry.
“Well, it’s okay.” She slurred her response as she held her porridge. Lifting her head, she smiles at Yami Hu.
“Silly daughter.” Seeing her smile, Yami Hu was then relieved, smiled a little and patted her shoulder. “You eat by yourself first, mom will go outside to water the flowers, come over later after eating and walk with mom. It’s a good thing you’re not working anymore, so you have someone to talk to at home.”
With that, Yami Hu turned to the garden at the back.
In the whole restaurant, Zoey was left sitting alone for a while.
Put down the spoon, a bitter tear, dropped in the hot porridge …
So, they, are they getting married?
Early in the morning, I was awakened by a crisp doorbell.
Jerry Xiao lifted the quilt and sat up from the bed, taking the pajamas by hand and casually draping them over his shoulders, very unhappy. This early in the morning, who came to find himself?
In recent times, it is always difficult to sleep at night. Lying in bed tossing and turning, the location of the chest is always a vague tingling pain, a kind of indescribable uncomfortable. Such emotions, intruding on him, make him manic all day long.
“Who is it, early in the morning!” Side annoyed ruffled hair, while pulling open the door, did not ask good-naturedly.
Outside the door, no one was in sight. A prank? Boring! He frowned, thinking he should call the authorities later to complain.
“Uncle!” A watery voice suddenly sounded at his feet. A small hand pushed against the door he was about to close.
A bent head. Only to see the little one carrying a large schoolbag propped up against the door panel, as if afraid that he had him, no, shut them out.
Because, he also led a little sister in his hand. Naturally he had seen this little one like a princess.
A tightly furrowed brow, all of a sudden to relax.
“Uncle, good morning oh.” The little girl greeted sweetly and greasily, without a bit of fear of life. Big eyes curved, smile like two beautiful little crescent.
Inexplicably, the heart of those manic, faded a lot, Jerry Xiao bent down to carry the little girl into his arms, one hand patted the back of KK’s head, “first door, how early in the morning to come here?”
“Brother took me along to skip school to see Uncle.” Nini’s little arm immediately wrapped around his neck. From such a close distance, Uncle seems to look even more handsome than last time, yeah! Especially the high bridge of the nose, and KK some similar.
“Uncle has born a lot of beard.” The little girl curiously reached out to touch, touched a little, seems to be stung, wrinkled up a small frown and retracted, a face aggrieved look at him, pathetically murmured: “pain …”
As if the beard had bullied her.
Jerry Xiao couldn’t help but lose his smile at that cute look.
“Have you guys eaten breakfast yet?” Putting the two little ones’ school bags on the couch before asking.
KK nodded her head. “Hmm. Ate a lot of good food oh! Next time bring Uncle to eat with you.” .
“Then why did you skip class? Didn’t the teacher teach you that skipping class is wrong?” Jerry Xiao slammed his face slightly, wanting to do his adult duty and ‘educate’ ‘educate’ the pair of kids properly.
The two little ones’ mouths flattened, and they both hung their heads in sullen silence. jerry Xiao suddenly had the feeling that he had done something wrong, and wondered if he had just spoken too harshly, hurting the two children.
Oh my God! Don’t you hate little kids? How come now they look like they’ve met their nemesis?
After a dry cough, his face eased up a bit before he continued, “Does mommy know you guys are skipping school? In case I don’t see you guys at school again, I’ll be worried.”
Jerry Xiao remembered the last time KK was kidnapped, the family probably still has palpitations. If they don’t see their children again this time, I don’t know how anxious they will be.
Nini beamed, so aggrieved, “Uncle, it’s not that we don’t want to go to class, it’s the classmates who are so annoying!”
“What’s wrong?”
Nini glanced at KK, who thumped twice around him and hugged his sturdy arms, “Uncle, you send us to school, okay?”
“Did some of your classmates bully you?”
“Big Fat is always saying we’re wild and that KK and I are unwanted by our daddy! We are not unwanted! We have a mommy, an uncle, and grandparents!” Nini stubbornly held her chin up, but her pretty eyes were obviously a little hurt and inferior.
KK also did not say anything, only wrinkled his fine brows and sat on the sofa, sullenly hugging his school bag. Obviously, this topic he also disliked, and, moreover, stung his young heart.
Jerry Xiao inexplicably felt a stifling pain in his heart, especially intolerant. He opened his lips, wanting to comfort the two lack of fatherly love children, but, at this moment, more words, it seems to become pale.
Children chasing after their father’s love and wanting it is an instinct.
Just like yourself, even now that you have grown up, will not still feel lonely because of the absence of family members? Wouldn’t you still envy someone else’s beautiful family? Or even, envy others who have a favorite person by their side?
Final …
Any words of comfort were not said. He only patted the back of the two children’s heads. “Be good and wait here for Uncle, I’ll go upstairs and change my clothes and send you to school.” .
“OH! Uncle is so handsome!”
“Long live Uncle!”
The two little ones turned from gloomy to sunny inside and shouted with leaps and bounds.
Jerry Xiao walked soberly upstairs. Downstairs, the children’s voices echoed throughout the house, and the heart, inexplicably, became less empty.
It’s as good as that to be loud and noisy …
Jerry Xiao went upstairs to change his clothes, KK sat downstairs, his eyes rolled, turned his face to ask Nini seriously, “Nini, Uncle give us as a daddy, OK?”
“Of course it’s good!”
“Zoey resigned. And uncle before seems to be very wrong oh!”
“There must have been a fight!” Nini thought about it and concluded, “After coming back from Japan, Zoey got a new uncle.”
“So which uncle do you like as a daddy?” KK asked.
Nini tilted her little head in a tangle, frowned and thought for a long time before digging her little mouth and saying, “People like both, what should we do?”
“Little nymphomaniac.” KK nuzzled her little mouth. I should have known it was a waste to ask.
“Uncle is very handsome, but Uncle Lian is also good!” Nini still had a hard time deciding.
“Whatever, let’s take care of Uncle first!” KK then decided on Jerry Xiao, spoke to Nini, and ran upstairs with a few thumps.
“Uncle!”
“Yeah?” Jerry Xiao took off the pullover he was wearing, picked out a shirt and put it on, and swept back the small head peeking in through the door.
Looking at that lean and shapely body, KK almost didn’t salivate.
Uncle is so strong!
Such a strong uncle will be able to protect Zoey from being bullied by the bad guys for the rest of her life. Of course, the premise has to be, the uncle is not the bad guy.
“Didn’t that aunt come to Uncle’s last time?” The little one asked tentatively.
When he heard the child ask this question, Jerry Xiao’s buttoning action paused for a moment. She looked at him with her head hanging, “Why do you suddenly ask this?”
“I miss her.” KK blinked her big eyes and added, “Did Uncle and her have a fight?”
Quarrel? Why would they fight? It’s not like they’re lovers! What’s there to quarrel about?
Jerry Xiao bristled, “You don’t understand what adults do.”
KK bare little feet, sitting on the bed with legs crossed. Seriously ‘educate’ him, “Uncle is a man, can not quarrel with a woman oh. Uncle said, and women quarrel can not reason, all women right.”
Jerry Xiao’s lips twitched. Who taught this logic …
“Got it, kid.”
Zoey was shocked when she got the call from the school.
Without thinking about anything else, he hurriedly changed his clothes and took a taxi from home in a hurry.
When I arrived at the office, I anxiously approached the teacher.
“Teacher Yang, have they arrived yet?” As soon as he heard that the two children had not arrived at school, Zoey subconsciously thought of ‘kidnapping’.
Ms. Yang came out of the office, “False alarm. The two children have been sent to school by their father.”
“Dad?” Zoey was quite surprised. These two kids, where did a dad come from?
“Yes. Your husband is still in front of the classroom.”
Zoey’s mind subconsciously jumped to a certain figure. So she said goodbye to Mr. Yang, “Then I’ll go check it out.”
“Okay.”
“The child will trouble you.”
Zoey hurried towards the classroom, crossed the long corridor and saw the familiar figure standing in front of the classroom, carrying a child in one hand on his shoulder.
Two children were happy and joyful. There was another child standing there, looking up at them with his little head.
What is this for? It’s not like the two little ones are being bullied and looking for him to bully them back, right?
“Big fatty, watch this! Who says KK and I don’t have a daddy to have anymore? Hmph! My daddy is a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times more handsome than your daddy!!!” Nini sat on her shoulder and grunted divinely at the little kid.
