ALL NOVEL
Chapter 25
"Hello, may I ask where Assistant Liu just went with the baby?" Shen Yin asked very politely.
Sitting closest, Xiao Lier said, "Assistant Liu just took the baby downstairs for a walk."
"Okay, thank you!" Shen Yin said, then turned to head towards the elevator.
Xiao Lier was flattered. The other assistants saw Shen Yin off.
After Shen Yin entered the elevator hall, things were no longer calm in the lobby.
"Wow, she's so gentle and polite!"
"To be honest, even if she was the third, I would still support her. I can't help it, I'm a sucker for beauty."
"Yes, yes, yes, her genes are too strong. I've never seen such a cute baby."
"I also like women like her. If I were the president, I would definitely choose her!" said a young man sitting in the corner.
"Wake up, Yihai, stop dreaming," everyone else laughed.
Shen Yin went downstairs but didn't find them, so she asked some other employees. Their reactions were all the same as those upstairs. The small group chat was flooded with so many new messages that she couldn't keep up.
As Shen Yin went down floor by floor, this was getting her nowhere, so she called Xu Xiuhe, "Hello, can you ask Liu Bo where Yunzheng is now? I can't find him."
After hanging up, Xu Xiuhe called Liu Bo.
Liu Bo was holding Yunzheng, circling every floor, and now they were on the 30th floor. After receiving Xu Xiuhe's call, he stopped on the 30th floor and didn't go down any further.
In the office area, the employees were gossiping.
"Isn't this the president's son?"
"Look who's talking rubbish. How could it be Assistant Liu's? He's a bachelor."
Liu Bo happened to overhear this. Unable to get angry while holding Yunzheng, he put Yunzheng down and held his hand, feeling aggrieved inside.
Is being single a crime? Everything he did was for work, because Xu Xiuhe was a workaholic, forcing him to work overtime too. His salary was high, sure, but his personal time was minimal. There were plenty of young girls at the company, but they all shipped him with Xu Xiuhe. He should be grateful they didn't make him pay for it, yet here they were looking down on him for being single.
Unable to fully articulate his grievances, Liu Bo led Yunzheng over to the employees and said, "Yunzheng, they are all aunties and uncles who like you. Say hi to the aunties."
Believing Liu Bo, Yunzheng greeted them in his soft voice, "Hello, aunties," even waving his little hand.
This was the scene Shen Yin came upon, smiling as she said, "Chatting with the sisters?"
Everything was fine when Yunzheng didn't see Shen Yin, but once he did, he became clingy, toddling towards her on his little legs.
"Mommy!"
Hearing this, everyone was certain this young-looking woman was the president's son's mother.
"Madam, you've come down. The president told me to take you and Yunzheng home later," Liu Bo deliberately clarified Shen Yin's identity.
Sure enough, calling her "Madam" explained everything. "Home?" The employees immediately understood.
"Madam looks so young, like 20 years old."
"So beautiful. The baby is cute too."
The compliments came one after another. Shen Yin knew she was good-looking and beautiful, but the praise from so many people still made her a little embarrassed. After thanking them, she picked up Yunzheng. "Yunzheng, time to go. What should you say to the sisters?"
Yunzheng waved his little hand again. "Bye bye, sisters!"
The female employees couldn't hold back their auntie smiles, some even wanting to steal the cute toddler away.
"Madam, please head upstairs first," Liu Bo suggested.
After the three left, the office area erupted into lamentations again. Messages poured into the group chat.
[Everyone, Assistant Liu called that woman Madam and is going to take them home.]
[Madam? Could it be the president's wife?]
[She's so gentle and beautiful, so the rumors about the third must be false. Don't spread rumors.]
[Her temperament is amazing. As a woman, even I like her. The key is she got the baby to call us sisters.]
[Sister, me too. She's very polite. I love her!]
[The president must have done good deeds in several lifetimes!!!!]
[I wave the banner for the president's wife. Let's see who dares oppose her!]
Upstairs, Liu Bo saw these messages and was very satisfied to have proven Shen Yin's identity. His goal was achieved, so it was time to report his merit to the president.
Thinking this wasn't enough, he quickly typed a message on his alt account and sent it out.
[Everyone, I'm on the top floor. The missus brought the president a meal, and although I didn't see the food, I'm crying from hunger just thinking about it.]
Someone immediately replied:
[A woman so beautiful can even cook? Heavens be damned!]
[To win a man's heart, first capture his stomach, sisters! Keep working on your cooking skills to become a wealthy madame someday!]
In his office, Xu Xiuhe had already cleaned up his lunchbox and put it in his bag. He had to say this was the most satisfactory meal he'd had in days.
When Shen Yin and Yunzheng came in, Xu Xiuhe was looking over documents.
Hearing them, he looked up and said, "You're back. Do you want to play here for a bit or head home now?"
Shen Yin didn't see much to entertain them here and had to go to the herbal medicine shop that afternoon, so she said, "No need, I have some things to do this afternoon. I'll take Yunzheng home first."
Xu Xiuhe: "Okay, I'll arrange a driver for you. Just tell the driver wherever you need to go. Be safe, and let me know if anything comes up."
Shen Yin left with Yunzheng, unaware that her visit had quashed some rumors, earned her a group of fans, and even banner-wavers.
On the ride home, Yunzheng fell asleep. Shen Yin held him in one hand and used the other to search on her phone for "where to buy Chinese medicine."
"Driver, please go to Renhe Chinese Medicine Pharmacy."
Hearing this, driver Old Wang turned around and changed route.
Soon, Old Wang said, "Madam, we've arrived."
Shen Yin wanted to buy herbs to treat Shu Yi's dysmenorrhea, but Yunzheng was still sleeping. It would be inconvenient to take him in, but unsafe to leave him in the car.
After thinking it over, she told Old Wang the herbs she needed and asked him to help buy them.
