Chapter 40: Don't Have a Second Child?
The people outside had already left sometime earlier.
Tang Xia wiped away her tears, composed herself, and walked out.
No one and nothing can easily defeat her.
After a quick trip on the gas pedal and delivering the milk, Tang Xia hurriedly returned to her workstation.
Song Zhiruo immediately noticed that something was wrong with her and slid over in her chair: "Sister, are you alright? You look like you've been crying."
Tang Xia shook her head, not revealing what had just happened in the restroom.
She smiled at the other person: "It's nothing, just an eyelash fell into my eye. It took me a long time to get it out. It's almost time to leave work. Are you done? Do you need my help?"
"That's great, there's a spot that I just can't figure out no matter what I do."
Liang Jingfang assigned a considerable amount of tasks, and apart from Tang Xia who was able to finish ahead of schedule, everyone else was extremely busy.
Judging from the looks of it, I'll most likely be kept on to work overtime.
Song Zhiruo sighed deeply, then replied to her girlfriends, saying that she would most likely be canceling tonight.
"Sister, you go back first. I can handle the rest myself."
Tang Xia nodded and began packing her things.
Chen Min looked at her messy drawings, slammed the mouse down, and cursed, "Some people really have the nerve to leave. They have to go home to breastfeed their babies at noon after work. If it weren't for her holding us back, would we need to work overtime?"
"Heh, you really have the nerve to say that."
Song Zhiruo originally thought that since she was new here and it was her first day of work, she should keep a low profile and be steady, but the person in front of her was just too annoying.
Ignoring Tang Xia's attempts to stop her, she walked straight up to Chen Min, pointed at her computer screen, and said, "Our tasks are supposed to be independent. You do yours, she does hers. Your keyboard is making a racket like firecrackers. I bet you've disturbed everyone in the office. With that kind of time, why don't you draw more diagrams? Now it's time to leave work, and you can't finish, so you're starting to blame others, huh?"
At that moment, the door to the office behind Tang Xia opened.
"What are you yelling about? Is this a company or a vegetable market? Song Zhiruo, if you're going to be this loud, you might as well quit and go do livestreaming."
"……puff."
This somewhat abrupt laugh did not come from anyone else, but from Tang Xia.
Song Zhiruo's cheeks flushed slightly. "Sister, why are you still laughing?"
"I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it."
Tang Xia also realized that this seemingly spoiled young lady and Liang Jingfang probably knew each other before, and that Song Zhiruo might even have a crush on him.
Liang Jingfang tapped the table again, his face stern, and said, "Aren't you going to continue working? I think you really don't want to leave work today, do you?"
He glanced at Tang Xia again, but this time, he didn't say anything unpleasant and turned back to his office.
Tang Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
As she packed her things, she whispered to Song Zhiruo, "Don't worry about them. Finish your drawing and go home quickly. You have a lot of projects and tasks lately, so don't let these things distract you."
"Okay, sis, you should go back now."
Although Song Zhiruo has a fiery temper, she is an extremely well-behaved little girl in front of Tang Xia.
When Tang Xia got home, it was almost dark.
To her surprise, hot food was already laid out on the table.
"Sister-in-law, you're back! I timed it perfectly."
Upon hearing this voice, Tang Xia raised an eyebrow.
Lin Yiyue, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen carrying soup and greeted Tang Xia with a smile, urging her to wash her hands and eat.
Anyone who didn't know better would think Tang Xia had gone to the wrong place; this was her home.
She didn't know what Lin Yiyue was up to this time, so she decided to wait and see.
She first went back to her room to check on Niannian.
The little girl was sleeping soundly, and I don't know if she was dreaming about something, but she kept pursing her lips, which was extremely cute.
Aunt Ruan was knitting a sweater nearby, and she raised her chin towards the door: "That little vixen came this afternoon, busy cleaning and cooking. I don't know what she's up to."
Tang Xia paused, then said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about her. As long as she doesn't hurt Niannian, I don't care even if she tries to destroy this house."
These days, Aunt Ruan has also realized that her marriage with Qiao Zhiyu is already dead in name only. If it weren't for the fact that her child is still young, she probably would have just taken the child and left.
Sigh, such a good girl, how come she can't meet someone who truly cares for her?
Lin Yiyue's cooking skills are average.
Although there are many different styles, none of them really suit Chinese tastes; they must be habits brought back from abroad.
In the past, Qiao's mother would find it novel and praise it highly, but today she was uncharacteristically critical: "This is deep-fried and grilled, and all the nutrients in the meat have been destroyed."
Lin Yiyue's smile froze: "Auntie, didn't you and Uncle love eating this the most?"
"That was before, but our family's situation is very different now," Mrs. Qiao said, her words carrying a hidden meaning.
Lin Yiyue pressed on, "Did something happen at home?"
"That's good news." Mrs. Qiao glanced in the direction of the bedroom and said with a smile, "Tang Xia has finally agreed to have a second child. I'm thinking I need to improve her health first so she can give me a healthy and chubby grandson."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yiyue felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
How can this be?
Tang Xia actually agreed?
If she really gives birth to a son for the Qiao family, then all my efforts will have been in vain!
Lin Yiyue ate the entire meal absentmindedly.
Qiao's mother called her several times, but she didn't hear her.
"Xiaoyue!" Qiao's mother couldn't help but raise her voice.
"Oh? What's wrong, Auntie?"
"I was just about to say something to you, what's wrong with you today? Are you sick?"
"No, no," Lin Yiyue quickly waved her hands.
Just then, she saw Tang Xia serving rice alone in the kitchen, so she said to the elderly couple, "I'll go get a soup spoon."
She even closed the door when she got to the kitchen.
Tang Xia glanced at her: "Miss Lin, do you have something to say to me?"
Lin Yiyue chuckled and said, "I heard from your aunt that you're planning to have a second child?"
Tang Xia raised an eyebrow.
It turned out to be because of this.
She nodded in agreement: "Yes, since the old couple wants a grandson so much, how can I, as their daughter-in-law, not grant their wish?"
"Do you know how harmful it is to your body to get pregnant with a second child right after giving birth?" Lin Yiyue seemed to have suddenly become a different person, actually showing concern for Tang Xia. "Besides, what era are we living in? We can't promote the idea of favoring sons over daughters. You are a graduate of a prestigious university, you should be more open-minded. How can you... how can you just listen to what they say?"
After Lin Yiyue finished speaking these righteous and stern words, Tang Xia did not respond with a single word.
She looked up and saw Tang Xia's smile gradually widen, and a chill suddenly ran down her spine!
Lin Yiyue suddenly turned around!
Sure enough, there was a person standing outside the door, staring at her with a sinister look on his face!
