Daily life of working as a substitute bride for a wealthy family

Xia Yun asked her, "Huh? How did you know the deer's name was Anjia? Did you raise it before?"

Xiang Ran: “No…”

Seeing her heartbroken expression, Xia Yun quickly comforted her, "Hey, sister, I think you should stop regretting and blaming yourself all day long! Such a handsome man... with the twin weapons of 'wealth' and 'power' at his disposal, any woman would want to have a child with him. How could this be your fault? You're not at fault at all!"

Xiang Ran burst into laughter and said, "If it were you... would you think so too?"

"I thought about it, but gave up after a while! First, I'm not a girl who just graduated, sister, I will be 28 years old after the Chinese New Year! Second, I know at a glance that this kind of man is not easy to conquer, and it is a waste of time to spend time on such a man. Sheng Yang is the kind of person..." Xia Yun thought about it, and seemed to be struggling to organize her words.

"What kind of thing——" Xiang Ran asked.

"He's the kind of handsome man who stands on an iceberg, the kind women admire. Silly women can't help but hold their warm hearts to warm him. But there's no doubt about it—those women who approach him can only return disappointed.

Such men will only make them feel cold."

Xia Yun pinched Xiang Ran's cheek. "And you—you're just lucky. You don't have to endure his coldness and alienation. He walked down the sacred mountain on his own and opened his heart."

She added, "But don't worry, we're not on the same page. Although I admit I was struck by your CEO Sheng's beauty. But I feel he's the kind of man who demands high loyalty from himself and others, so I can only admire him from afar and not touch him."

To take action against a man like this, haha ​​- the cost is too high and the success rate is extremely low.

What's more...men are not for me to admire, but to play with."

Accustomed to Xia Yun's usual "bold" remarks, Xiang Ran was no longer surprised.

She got straight to the point and asked, "By the way, have you seen my son today?"

"No, I was so focused on your ex-husband that I didn't pay attention to the child." Xia Yun said with a smile.

“No way…”

Xia Yun: "I'm kidding. I was standing on tiptoe and craning my neck to see, but your baby was in a very high stroller with a canopy covering it, so I couldn't see his face."

Xiang Ran couldn't hide her disappointment when she heard this.

But she still smiled and said, "Oh, at least it's good to know that the baby is okay."

"Hey!" Xia Yun patted her shoulder and said, "I've thought of a great job!"

"What??"

"Well, since you miss your son so much, why don't you apply for the position of child development mentor at the Xu family? Otherwise, your son will be raised in a wealthy family by Sheng Yang, so how will you ever get to see him? Anyway, you plan to study abroad in September next year."

Xiang Ran asked: "What is a child development mentor?"

"Well, it's actually a new term that's been around for a few years now. It's about accompanying children, picking them up from school, attending tutoring classes, and helping them with their homework."

"That won't work. The Xu family's requirements should be very high. What if they want to check my teaching certificate and diploma?" Xiang Ran frowned. "Sheng Yang's cousin doesn't look like someone who can be fooled."

Xia Yun poked her cheek with her finger: "Haha, are you pretending in front of me again? Well - let alone cousin Sheng Yang, you even dared to fool Sheng Yang himself. You cheated on Mr. Sheng's body and his heart."

Xiang Ran was so embarrassed by her poking: "Don't talk nonsense, it's my first time too."

"Oh, you're blushing. I was just joking." Xia Yun shook her head, full of confidence. "Although what you said makes sense, we still have a card in our hand, hehe."

As soon as Xia Yun said "Hehe", Xiang Ran knew that something was wrong.

"What card?" Xiang Ran asked.

"Looking for 'Doctor Wen' - have you forgotten how I got this side job in the first place? Hehe! Because of 'Doctor Wen's' recommendation. Didn't you replace me and go to the Xu family when I was on vacation last year? Did they check your teaching certificate? No!" Xia Yun smiled slyly.

"Are you talking about Mo Shaohua?"

"Yeah, that's right! Anyway, Mo Shaohua is a human resources agent. I guess the Xu family still went through him to find a family companion." Xia Yun said with a smile, "You know, in ancient Chinese novels, an agency like Mo Shaohua is called a 'ren ya zi'."

"No, I've already troubled Manager Mo with too many things." Xiang Ran said.

"Silly, the debt is already owed. We can repay it together when we have the chance in the future." Xia Yun counseled Ran, "Besides, it's not like you're not working just because you're working for the Xu family. Look at you—now you have your IELTS scores and work experience in an international school. What can't you show for it?"

"I'll think about it, think about it—" Xiang Ran said.

"What are you still thinking about? By the time the Xu family has hired someone, it will be too late for you to regret. And then it will be difficult for you to see your child again before he goes abroad to study."

Xiang Ran had a conflicted expression.

"Well, even if I stay at the Xu family for a few months, I may not necessarily see your son and Sheng Yang. However, I can at least find out some information, such as what happened to the Sheng family after you left..."

"Then should I go to Manager Mo and recommend myself?" Xiang Ran asked.

"I occasionally chat with Mo Shaohua on WeChat at night. So, I'll prepare you for this tonight... Tomorrow, you can go to his company to see him."

"Tomorrow is Sunday. I'll go to his company and see him the day after tomorrow." Xiang Ran patted his head. "By the way, I have to see you tomorrow. I've already made an appointment at the 'Famous Doctor Clinic' at Kanghui Pharmacy in the neighboring city."

"Why don't you go to a big hospital and see a director? Is Chinese medicine reliable?" Xia Yun couldn't help but ask.

"I've seen Western doctors in other provinces, but they didn't work, so I turned to traditional Chinese medicine." Xiang Ran explained to her her experience of frequent hospital visits in the past few months, "Actually, don't underestimate the experts hired by these pharmacies and clinics. They often have some real skills. Because these traditional Chinese medicine experts will occasionally go to major pharmacies to earn some extra money.

I couldn’t get Professor Zhao’s number, and I didn’t dare to, so I just got one from one of his apprentices.

Also, this pharmacy is not in this city, but in a neighboring city, so it shouldn't be easy to find."

"You, ah..." Xia Yun said half of the sentence and couldn't continue.

Xiang Ran pulled her hand: "Oh, don't make that expression, if you do this - my lower abdomen seems to be hurting again."
