half thorns, half joy

Although there was a little episode when playing mahjong earlier, it didn't have a big impact. Xiao Zihan seemed to have returned to normal, and Cai Jinyu also changed his joke and didn't talk about the topic just now.

Zhao Suizhi knew that his appearance would make the juniors feel restrained, so he asked the nanny to bring the dinner upstairs as before, and ate dinner with Xiao Yuebai.

Seeing her like this, Cai Jinyu joked with a smile, saying that for Zhao Suizhi now, Xiao Yuebai and the little baby are much more important than Xiao Zihan.

Xiao Zihan nodded in agreement: "I have already recognized this point."

Cai Lin stuffed the red meat into her mouth, and said seriously: "People say they are relatives in the next generation. It's normal for Aunt Zhao to like the two babies more than Brother Zihan."

As for Tang Xuan, she didn't interrupt. She lowered her head and ate seriously, thinking about the problem that Xiao Zihan just said to solve.

solve what?
She thought about it, but still couldn't figure it out.

After dinner, Cai Lin said that she had eaten too much, and proposed to go out for a walk, and take a walk on the road. Except for Cai Jinyu, the rest are people who like a quiet atmosphere. Cai Jinyu has no objection, and the others are naturally No comments.

The four of them went out and walked slowly along the road.

Xiao Zihan's villa was built in the suburbs some distance from the city center. During the day, there were few people. At night, there was no one on the road.

The lit street lamp stretched out the shadows of the four of them, and Cai Lin put her hands behind her back, jumping around and stepping on the shadows.

Cai Jinyu didn't say much, put his hands in his pockets, and walked behind Cai Lin unhurriedly, with his head down, wondering what he was thinking.

Xiao Zihan and Tang Xuan, as usual, held hands and walked slowly at the end. Because the atmosphere was so good, they didn't open their mouths to break the comfortable atmosphere, and walked quietly.

It is extremely rare for them to get along so quietly, without disputes, without messy people and things.

After walking for several hundred meters, they came to a crossroad with a red light, and several people turned back and walked back.

Xiao Zihan, who never offered any suggestions, suddenly said, "After a while, let's go on a trip together."

"Huh? Where are you going?" Cai Lin immediately jumped in front of Xiao Zihan.

Xiao Zihan shook his head: "I haven't decided where to go yet, what about you, where do you want to go?" He asked Tang Xuan.

Tang Xuan naturally shook her head, "I haven't traveled much, and I really don't know how to answer you when you ask me this question."

"It's okay, there will be more opportunities in the future." As a young master who has traveled all over the world since he was a child, Xiao Zihan comforted Tang Xuan: "Now we have more time, and the things we need to solve have been resolved. We have more time to travel."

"Isn't the company busy?"

Xiao Zihan smiled, "I'm not that busy, I still have time to go out and have fun, and it's perfectly fine to have a computer to work remotely. Think about it, is there any place you want to go in particular?"

Fearing that Tang Xuan would not know where to think of it, he reminded him: "Where do you want to go? The city you want to go to? The sea, the desert, where do you want to go?"

To be honest, Tang Xuan really didn't think about this.

But when Xiao Zihan reminded her at this moment, she looked at Cai Jinyu who seemed to be preoccupied, and really thought of a place to go.

"I used to watch movies and it seemed that France was not bad."

Xiao Zihan squeezed Tang Xuan's hand tightly: "Then go to France, and after you take care of your health, we'll see whether to go before or after the Chinese New Year."

Tang Xuan hummed, and said, "Don't worry, the baby is still breastfeeding. It will be inconvenient for us to take him with us, and we won't be able to leave without it. Let's wait a while."

"Row."

Seeing that Cai Jinyu was still silent, Tang Xuan took the initiative to ask Cai Jinyu, "Jinyu, when we go on a trip, you should go too. There will be more people and it will be more lively."

Cai Jinyu was thinking about her own thoughts, but she didn't listen to Tang Xuan very much. When Tang Xuan called him, she agreed casually, "Oh, okay, you can just call me when the time comes."

Tang Xuan and Xiao Zihan looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

It seems that no matter how lively and noisy people are, there are times when they are sad and sad.

After walking back, they chatted for a while, Cai Jinyu drove away with Cai Lin. Before leaving, Cai Lin made an appointment with Tang Xuan to come for afternoon tea the next day.

Tang Xuan didn't feel sleepy at all because she slept in during the day. She took out the computer that had been left for a long time, and planned to clear her mind and see how to negotiate with the editor.

If the other party's attitude is really tough, she will ask to terminate the contract, if not, she will use the law as her weapon.

Although she doesn't intend to use the identity of Xiao's proprietress, it doesn't mean that she will be bullied obediently and silently.

Seeing Tang Xuan busy with his own affairs, Xiao Zihan didn't say anything, and didn't even give Tang Xuan any advice, but got up and went to the study.

Tang Xuan thought that he might have something to do, so she sent a message to the editor without asking any further questions.

It's already this time, and generally speaking, editors are off work, so after Tang Xuan sent the message, she still didn't receive a reply after waiting for ten minutes.

If it had been like this in the past, Tang Xuan would not be in a hurry and would wait until the next day for the editor to reply.

But Tang Xuan's editor changed her signature after Tang Xuan sent the message, and replied to other authors' messages. Obviously she was online, but she just didn't reply to Tang Xuan's message.

This made Tang Xuan a little uncomfortable.

She sat alone for a while, took out the contract from the cabinet, found the editor's phone number written on it, and called.

The editor's mobile phone should be in his hand. Tang Xuan just called and picked up the phone.

"Hey?"

"Hello editor, I'm your author, Tang Xiao, I was too busy to contact you, and now I want to talk to you about my manuscript."

The editor didn't seem to expect to receive a call from Tang Xuan, and was stunned for a while before she stammered the reply.

"Ah...it's you...I remember you..."

Tang Xuan had run out of patience with this editor who beat around the bush and had a bad attitude after using her. She used the last remaining politeness to say to the editor:

"I just sent you a message, but you didn't reply, so I thought of calling you to save you a few minutes. You told me before that because of too much controversy, my column stopped for a while. Now this paragraph Is the time over? Also, the payment for my last manuscript has not been called to me until now, what's going on?"

Although Tang Xuan's tone was gentle, her attitude was serious. After she finished speaking, she waited for the editor to reply.

This is the difference between phone calls and text messages. People who send messages can pretend not to see them if they don’t want to reply, but if you make a call, I’ll ask you. Unless you hang up, you have to tell me something.

On the other end of the phone, the editor gasped and finished.

Seeing that Tang Xuan had been in touch for so long, she thought that Tang Xuan, the author, would just let it go and the matter had already been turned over.

Unexpectedly, they actually came to the door again.

And all the sentences are reasonable, the questions are all related to other people's rights, she really can't be fooled and perfunctory.

The editor is also paid for his work, and the replies to Tang Xuan were also instructed by the leader. She really didn't know how to reply Tang Xuan, so she could only resort to delaying the attack.

"Well, Tang Xiao, it's time for bed now. I have to get up at six o'clock tomorrow morning. I will answer your two questions tomorrow, okay?"

Everyone said so, and Tang Xuan couldn't say no, so she could only agree, "Okay, then remember to reply to me tomorrow. If I need to negotiate with your company, I will call my lawyer. Good luck Dream, good night."

The last word "lawyer" is actually a bit intimidating.

But it's not a big talk, Tang Xuan has already figured it out, if the company still bullies her and refuses to give her an answer, then she will find a lawyer.

The editor is also a small editor. Hearing Tang Xuan mention a lawyer, he was too scared to say anything.

Tang Xuan didn't want to say anything else, so she hung up the phone.

She had just hung up the phone, and before she had time to recall the embarrassing negotiation just now, Xiao Zihan walked into the bedroom with a stack of documents.

Xiao Zihan shook the document in his hand and smiled triumphantly: "Come on, wife, let's talk about parting ways."
