NOVEL NEXT Chapter 43: Hu Qiang's Jealousy
[POV Hu Qiang]
She looks like an adorable angel when she is asleep. Yesterday night, she fell into a deep sleep, she felt safe I guess. She must have loved this place.
She slept in my arms for the whole night. Though my arms are numb now, but looking at her deeply satisfied and relaxed sleeping face. I am more than happy. I am simply overjoyed.
"Did you have enough of my face yet?" Bai Chang spoke up sleepily as her eyelids fluttered.
"Not enough," I replied shamelessly.
There is a hint of a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth.
"Let's get up; we didn't meet Xiao Wei yesterday after we came home. That child would be restless if we do not meet him today." She said as she kissed me at the corner of my jaws and glided away to her villa.
Seeing her so cheerful, I at once decide to bring her to this place every week to help her unwind.
It will be a big help to maintain her quality of sleep.
I rushed to my room and freshened up.
I am already late for the office. Today the fashion house would be on break.
As I rushed down I see Bai Chang waiting for me. Looking up from the newspaper she flashes me a smile and said, "Let's go we are late for office."
"You are coming too!"
"Why so surprised, I will join you today, as I have a few things to sort through. If delayed, we will miss some good opportunity."
"Okay, come along."
We were just about to leave when Xiao Wei entered the hall.
"Mamma … Are you going to the office? I will join you today, is it alright?"
"What would you do there my dear little Munchkin?" Bai Chang asked him.
"I have to use a device there for my new design."
"Are you in a rush, Munchkin?"
"Mamma, we finished a successful runway yesterday. Though I couldn't witness it personally, we have to prepare for the next season's runway. I have to make prepare your congratulatory gift too and ..."
"Congratulatory gift," I intervened.
"I knew it, I can't trust you to give Mamma anything appropriate, I have to do it all by myself," he mumbled.
I am stunned.
After which, I feel helpless against my own son.
'What kind of loser does he make me in his head?'
"Fine, just tag along."
So instead of me going to the office, it just turned into my whole family going to the office.
'I guess today is the day where you bring your kid to the office.'
Together we all left for office.

As we reached the office, I see Ming Li waiting for me outside the office.
Something major must-have cropped up.
I got down the car and moved to the passenger seat side to open the door while I left Xiao Wei to his means.
'That ungrateful son can open the door by himself.'
Ming Li was rushing towards me but stopped after seeing Bai Chang and Xiao Wei.
"What happened, Ming Li? Anything that you are unable to handle?" Bai Chang asked.
"No madam … Actually Mr Shen is waiting for you at the conference room along with Mr Lu of Lu Conglomerate and Mr Wang from Wang apparel enterprise. They want to discuss with us, our market and distribution of our latest fashion line."
"Then let them wait for some more time." Bai Chang replied while winking at Ming Li.
I tasted something sour at the back of my tongue.
"Come let us enter and see for our self what it is all about?" I rushed her through the door towards the VIP elevator.
As we reached the elevator door, "Ming Li, accompany Xiao Wei to the Fashion housing floor then report to me in the office."
"Yes, boss."
I didn't care to wait around as I rushed with Bai Chang to my office.
(I'm in no rush to meet those snobs. Nah … I just wanted to have more me time with my wife before my son snatches her from me.
I'm not ashamed to admit, that I am a very jealous man. I am jealous that she winked at Ming Li, I will work him to his near-death this week and I am jealous of my son. Sadly I can't be rough handed with him otherwise My Queen will oust me from our home... Sigh … How troublesome is my life?)
