Chapter 182: You and Uncle Fu Are Together
Lu Xiwán almost lost her balance, and stared at Tang Yi in surprise.
"What are you thinking?"
Tang Yi said confidently, "You two talk as if they're children's names; by that logic, did you have two children before?"
Lu Xiwán steadied her mind.
She almost let Tang Yi guess it.
But the matters between her and Fu Sijue are far beyond what these two sentences can explain.
"Yao Yao is my patient; the little girl should channel her imagination into work instead."
Lu Xiwán helplessly led her back to the office.
It was clear that Fu Sijue had already greeted Sang Hongfang, who waited outside with a smiling face.
"Among so many proposals, you chose the one that best fits President Fu's wishes; that finally untied a knot in my mind."
This project had troubled them for a long time, and now finally someone can solve it.
Lu Xiwán dared not claim all the credit for herself, and added a few polite remarks.
"President Sang, schedule a project for Tang Yi soon, let her hone her skills; given time, Tang Yi will surely become a top software engineer in the country."
Tang Yi's greatest advantage is her youth; youth can make up for many shortcomings that others cannot fill in a lifetime.
That's a huge benefit for a software engineer.
Sang Hongfang also nodded, "Little Tang is good at everything except being too impatient; these days she should follow you and learn, and when she has corrected these flaws, she'll truly be ready for heavy responsibilities."
He kept talking more and eventually even touched on the company's management.
Sang Hongfang earnestly patted Lu Xiwán, "Are you interested in staying at our company? I can give you shares, and salary won't be an issue."
The terms he offered were tempting enough, yet Lu Xiwán showed no intention of considering them.
She still didn't know Sang Hongfang well enough, and hadn't reached the point of abandoning her freedom for this benefit.
Lu Xiwán glanced at her watch, gave Sang Hongfang an apologetic smile, "Sorry, President Sang, it's quitting time; I still have to have dinner with my child."
After saying that she hurried away, not giving Sang Hongfang a chance to speak.
Lu Xiwán had just gone downstairs when she saw Fu Sijue's car parked outside, and she walked over with a frown.
"Didn't I say I'd drive myself?"
As she opened the car door, Lu Xiwán was hugged tightly by Xi Xi, "surprise!"
Yao Yao also happily embraced Lu Xiwán, the two children snuggling affectionately against her.
"I really miss Mommy!" Yao Yao exclaimed, holding on excitedly for half a day without letting go.
Seeing Lu Xiwán's gaze, Xi Xi quickly raised her hand, "Mommy said we shouldn't go out with strangers, but today Uncle Fu came to pick us up."
Fu Sijue shook his head helplessly at Lu Xiwán, "I said you would drive yourself, but the kids must let me come pick you up."
Lu Xiwán got into the car, and Fu Sijue took her directly to the prearranged restaurant.
It was a Cantonese restaurant Lu Xiwán had liked before; a strong aroma wafted from outside the door.
"The dishes have already been ordered."
Fu Sijue, very gentlemanly, prepared the tableware for Lu Xiwán; Yao Yao mimicked him, helping Xi Xi set the utensils.
Lu Xiwán felt very happy.
"Yao Yao, do you listen to dad at home?"
Yao Yao nodded heavily, and pulled a handful of milk candies from his pocket, "The teacher gave them to me, saying they're a reward for obedient children."
In order to surprise Lu Xiwán, Yao Yao had been trying hard these past few days, just to see her sooner.
"I knew our Yao Yao is the best-behaved child in the world." Lu Xiwán nodded satisfied, peeled open a milk candy and tossed it into her mouth.
The strong milky taste made Lu Xiwán very uncomfortable, but she endured it.
This was Yao Yao's token of affection.
