Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

Peng Li called Zhou Xinyao, but no one answered, which made Peng Li very anxious.

At that moment, Zhou Xinyao was preoccupied with company matters and didn't notice the incoming call on her phone.

Back at the old house, Peng Li couldn't get through on the phone. Her usual arrogant demeanor vanished, and she instantly became dejected.

Zhou Xinyao's refusal to answer the phone meant that no one in the family would stand by Peng Li's side.

"Mr. Bai, please believe me and give me another chance."

Peng Li's repeated pleas went unanswered; the only sound in the entire hall of the old house was Peng Li's voice.

Now that Bai Yunchuan has made his decision, he will no longer leave Peng Li in the old house to continue taking care of Bai Yuechen's personal life.

"I'm leaving the old housekeeper to you now. I'm going back to my room."

Leaving behind a single sentence, Bai Yunchuan turned and left without hesitation, departing from this place of trouble.

Peng Li's dismissal is a foregone conclusion.

The old housekeeper waved to Wang Ma and Xiao Song, and said with a serious expression.

"There's nothing for you to do here. You should go back to your rooms."

After the old housekeeper spoke, Wang Ma and Xiao Song exchanged a glance, then turned and left the hall.

Peng Li, knowing she had been fired, slumped to the ground in despair, staring blankly into space.

Peng Li felt she was being wronged. He hadn't done anything, so why were there those strange sleeping pills in his bag?

There is currently nothing to prove that the sleeping pills were not Peng Li's. Even if Peng Li had seven or eight mouths, she would still be unable to defend herself.

Xiao Song and Wang Ma did not return to their own room, but instead found a secluded corner to stand in.

"Wang Ma, you're amazing! How did you know Peng Li had sleeping pills in her bag? You're incredible!"

Xiao Song kept praising Wang Ma, and his constant flattery pleased Wang Ma.

Even at this moment, Wang Ma had no idea that she had been used as a pawn by Xiao Song.

After a brief conversation, Xiao Song escorted Wang Ma to the nanny's room.

"Wang Ma, you should rest now. I'm going upstairs to see Mr. Bai about something."

After saying goodbye to Wang Ma, Xiao Song hurried to the door of Bai Yunchuan's bedroom.

Ding ding ding.

There was a knock on the bedroom door, and Bai Yunchuan, who was inside, spoke in a deep voice.

"Who is it? Please come in."

Bai Yunchuan subconsciously assumed that the person knocking on the door was the old housekeeper, who was likely there to report on the handling of Peng Li's case, and invited him in.

The door was open, and Xiao Song appeared in the doorway.

Upon seeing that the visitor was Xiao Song, Bai Yunchuan felt somewhat disappointed and remained silent.

Undeterred, Xiao Song took a step forward and gradually approached Bai Yunchuan, standing still a meter away from him.

"Mr. Bai, there's something I'd like to say..."

Xiao Song came here specifically to recommend himself.

Peng Li has now been dismissed, which means that no one is taking care of Bai Yuechen's life now.

An infant must be cared for by someone at all times.

"explain."

Bai Yunchuan spoke indifferently, seemingly unwilling to have any interaction with Xiao Song.

“Mr. Bai, Peng Li, the nanny, has been fired. There is no one to take care of the young master. I have taken care of many children before. Could you let me take care of the young master?”

"You can rest assured, I will not ask for a raise. I really like the young master, which is why I made this request."

Xiao Song was afraid that Bai Yunchuan would misunderstand, so he quickly spoke up to explain.

Bai Yunchuan looked at Xiao Song coldly, pondered for a moment, and then gave his reply.

"That's fine. You can take care of the young master for the next couple of days. If the old housekeeper finds a suitable postpartum nanny, you can hand the young master over to her then."

Bai Yunchuan had his own considerations.

Without Zhou Xinyao, Bai Yuechen's biological mother, by his side in the old house to take care of him, and with the top-notch postpartum nanny Peng Li being fired, even if a new nanny is found temporarily, she won't come immediately.

Bai Yunchuan is busy with work every day and rarely has time to communicate with Bai Yuechen. Moreover, Wang Ma has never had children and is probably not very good at taking care of children.

The only current option is Xiao Song...

Upon hearing Bai Yunchuan's words, Xiao Song's eyes lit up instantly, staring intently at Bai Yunchuan's face.

Does this mean that Bai Yunchuan is willingly handing Bai Yuechen over to him? Xiao Song was extremely excited, thinking that Bai Yunchuan really thought highly of him.

Xiao Song didn't hear a word of the second half of what Bai Yunchuan said, as he only listened to the first half of what he said.

Having Xiao Song take care of Bai Yuechen is only temporary. Once the old housekeeper finds a new nanny, Xiao Song will no longer be allowed to continue.

"Thank you, Mr. Bai, for giving me this opportunity. I will definitely take good care of the young master."

Overjoyed, Xiao Song expressed his gratitude to Bai Yunchuan.

Bai Yunchuan's face remained expressionless. Seeing that Xiao Song had no intention of continuing, he sent Xiao Song away from his room.

"If there's nothing else, go to the old butler and tell him about it."

"By the way, Bai Yuechen might be awake by now. You should go and check on the young master first."

With a smile on her face, Xiao Song turned and left like a young girl in love.

When Xiao Song arrived at the nursery, Bai Yuechen was still fast asleep. Xiao Song then went out to report to the old housekeeper that Bai Yunchuan had allowed her to take care of Bai Yuechen.

After finishing her report, Xiao Song hurried back to the nursery, where Peng Li was wiping away tears as she packed her belongings.

“Aunt Peng, don’t be sad. You’ve been fired by Mr. Bai. You should hurry up and find another employer to work for.”

Xiao Song pretended to be kind and wanted to offer some advice to Peng Li.

But Peng Li, who was only thinking about being fired, couldn't possibly listen to anything. She glanced at Xiao Song and then ignored him.

Xiao Song didn't care how Peng Li treated her; all she wanted to do now was use Bai Yuechen to curry favor with Bai Yunchuan and improve their relationship.

Just then, Bai Yuechen, who was fast asleep, suddenly woke up and started crying incessantly.

Xiao Song quickly stepped forward, hugged Bai Yuechen tightly, and gently rocked her.

"Auntie's here, young master, don't cry..."

Despite Xiao Song's gentle words, Bai Yuechen showed no mercy and continued to wail.

Peng Li, who was packing her luggage nearby, couldn't stand it and spoke up to remind her.

"A baby usually cries for only two reasons: either he/she needs to pee or he/she is hungry. You can check for that yourself."

Although Peng Li was dismissed on trumped-up charges, Bai Yuechen had been taken care of by Peng Li for a long time, so Peng Li still had some feelings for Bai Yuechen.

Xiao Song suddenly realized what was going on and gradually became proficient under Peng Li's guidance.

"Aunt Peng, you can leave with peace of mind. I'll take care of the young master, so you can rest assured!"

Because everyone suspected that Aunt Peng had given Bai Yuechen sleeping pills, the old housekeeper stopped trying to keep Peng Li and ordered her to leave the old house immediately.

As Xiao Song watched Peng Li leave the nursery, a smug smile crept onto his face and a hint of triumph flashed in his eyes.
