The second marriage of the prosperous age, the mysterious wife of the president

405: Extra Story: Four years later, four years later.

In Liangcheng, a well-known fashion magazine.

"Editor Xia," an employee knocked on the door and called out very cautiously, "Excuse me, are you there?"

"Come in."

The editor-in-chief Xia that the secretary was talking about was wearing a stylish and professional suit and a well-regulated white shirt, but she wore a different taste.

The eyeliner at the end of the eye is slightly raised, which has a special style.The makeup is very delicate, and the color of the lipstick is also very suitable for her, matching it just right.

The combination of exquisite facial features is very beautiful and has its own characteristics.

Editor-in-chief Xia's beauty is recognized by everyone in the fashion circle.

"Editor Xia." The secretary said politely, "The responsible editors just had a meeting and finalized the interviewees for the business column in the next issue of our magazine."

"Business column?" Xia Siwan sat on the chair, turned around slightly, the chair also turned according to her movements, and raised her head, "Who is finalized?"

"There are two candidates. One is the president of Liangcheng Xi's Group, and the other is the president of Nancheng Ji's Group."

"Xi?"

In Xia Siwan's eyes, there was a little bit of surprise, but it quickly disappeared, with a hint of calmness.

"Yes." The secretary replied, "The responsible editors have their own opinions on these two candidates, and the number of votes is similar. In the end, it is up to you to decide."

Xia Siwan's eyes rolled slightly, and her fingers with bright red nails tapped lightly on the table: "Let's go to Xi Shi."

The secretary asked: "Editor Xia, your reason is..."

"Xi's is in Liangcheng, and it's just across the street from the office building where our magazine is located." Xia Siwan said, "Why didn't you choose Xi's?"

"But we all know that Mr. Xi of the Xi's Group rarely comes out to be interviewed by the media, let alone our magazine..."

"Oh, I think Mr. Ji of Nancheng Ji's Group will negotiate better, don't you?"

"Yes, Editor-in-Chief Xia."

Xia Siwan smiled: "How can you say you can't do something you haven't done before? Go try it, maybe we can win Xi's interview."

The secretary nodded: "OK."

"I don't have time today, let's do it tomorrow." Xia Siwan said, "I... will go in person."

The secretary was a little surprised: "Editor Xia, are you going?"

"Yes, this is the only way to show that our magazine attaches great importance to this interview. Alright, I will fight for this interview opportunity tomorrow. Then I will go directly to Xi's Group, and will not come to the magazine first."

"Okay, Editor-in-Chief Xia." The secretary responded, "Then Mr. Ji's interview filing..."

"No need." Xia Siwan said confidently. "Just prepare for the interview on Xi's side, and that's it."

Although the relationship between her Xia family and the Xi family cannot be said to be very good, it can be regarded as friendship.

Xia Siwan was still sure.

"Yes, Editor-in-Chief Xia, then I'll go to work first."

"Ah."

The secretary went out and closed the door gently.

Xia Siwan leaned back on the chair, looked at her bright nail color, and smiled slightly.

Xi's Group...

It seems that I have to go to the nail shop this afternoon to change the nail color.

It's so bright, it's a little too ostentatious.

People in the business world are not like those in the fashion industry, who only look at personality like this.

It's better to be low-key.

Just thinking about it, the phone rang suddenly, and Xia Siwan picked it up: "Hello, sister."

"Xiao Wan, are you free this afternoon? Go shopping?"

"no problem."

After get off work, shopping, shopping, and returning to Xia's house, Xia Siwan went back to her room, put her things away, but couldn't wait to turn on the computer and searched for information about Xi's Group.

Logically speaking, the person she is going to interview tomorrow is Xi Jinnan, the president of Xi's Group.

But the character information displayed on her computer page is...

Qiao Muchen, the vice president of Xi's Group.

Xia Siwan put her hand on the mouse and looked at various photos of him. Without exception, they were all in suits and leather shoes, and she was in a good state of mind.

It was him, the one she saw at the prosperous wedding of Mr. Xi and Mrs. Xi.

It was him she met by chance on the side of the road.

Qiao Muchen, Qiao, Mu, Chen...

Xia Siwan held her face in her hands, looking at every photo of him almost infatuatedly.

In the past four years, she has been paying attention to his movements every day, but she dare not approach him.

Xia Siwan turned off the computer, looking forward to tomorrow even more.

Tomorrow, she is going to the Xi's Group, will she... meet him?

Xia Siwan was already looking forward to tomorrow.

Moreover, in the past four years, she has not only paid attention to him, she... is still doing a very important thing.

Being able to go to Qiao Muchen's side, something that attracted his attention.

Xia Siwan walked into the bathroom, looked at her face in the mirror, and smiled slightly.

the next day.

Xia Siwan looked anxiously at the motionless traffic ahead on the elevated road.

While flipping through the interview materials, she dialed the phone.

Not long after, someone answered the phone: "Hi, I'm Zhao Xu."

"Hello, Special Assistant Zhao." Xia Siwan said quickly, "I'm Xia Siwan from Xinying Magazine."

This special assistant Zhao is the chief assistant next to Mr. Xi, and he is very considerate in his dealings with others.

Sure enough, Zhao Xu paused for two seconds, and quickly said, "Editor Xia, hello."

"Zhao Tezhu, it's like this. As you know, I am the editor-in-chief of Xinying Magazine. In the next issue of the magazine, there will be an interview for a business column. Our magazine feels that Xi is always the best candidate for this interview."

"Interview?" Zhao Xu's tone was slightly solemn, "This..."

"Zhao Tezhu, I won't delay you for a long time. Mr. Xi is undoubtedly the most successful person in Liangcheng now, with a successful career and family. He is really suitable for this interview."

"That's it, Editor-in-Chief Xia, I'll go talk to Mr. Xi. See if he's willing. If Mr. Xi is not willing..."

"Okay, okay," Xia Siwan nodded quickly, "Then I'll come over right now."

Xia Siwan took off the bluetooth headset, held the hand on the steering wheel, and clenched it slightly, she looked a little excited.

Zhao Xu knocked on the door of the president's office, and after hearing the reply from inside, he opened the door and went in.

Mr. Xi was sitting on the sofa, and Mr. Qiao was sitting opposite him.

"Mr. Xi, Mr. Qiao," Zhao Xu said.

Qiao Muchen nodded slightly, but did not speak.

"What's the matter?" Xi Jinnan looked at him.

"Mr. Xi, that's it. Editor-in-Chief Xia of Xinying Magazine wants you to accept an interview..."

Before Zhao Xu finished speaking, Xi Jinnan frowned: "Interview? Pushed."

"President Xi..."

"When did you become so incapable of doing things?" Xi Jinnan looked at him, "I never accept interviews."

"Mr. Xi, this editor-in-chief Xia is the youngest daughter of the Xia family. If you don't care about this magazine's face, you have to take care of it..."

"I said push."

Zhao Xu had no choice but to nod: "Yes, I will reject Editor-in-Chief Xia now."

Qiao Muchen, who had been sitting on the side, suddenly smiled: "Who is this editor-in-chief Xia? It seems that he has a background?"

Zhao Xu said, "It's Miss Xia's family, the youngest one."

"Xia family? Which Xia family?"

Zhao Xu didn't know how to explain it for a while.

Xi Jinnan glanced at Qiao Muchen: "Are you stupid at work?"

"I really haven't heard of it."

Zhao Xu watched the two presidents chatting as if no one was around, and was about to leave quietly.

Who knew but heard Qiao Muchen say: "If someone wants an interview, you can give it to him. If you talk about the Xia family, then give the Xia family a face."

"No." Xi Jinnan refused firmly.

Qiao Muchen shrugged, and looked back at Zhao Xu at the door: "Hey, look, I tried my best to help you, and I also helped that editor-in-chief Xia, but Mr. Xi didn't want to."

Zhao Xu nodded and smiled, "Then thank you, Mr. Qiao."

"You're welcome."

But Xi Jinnan said: "You want to help others so much, you go for an interview, I think it's fine."

"I'm not going." Qiao Muchen said, "I've always kept a low profile."

After finishing speaking, he stood up: "It's time for me to go back to the office, Xi Jinnan, the coffee is good. Let your secretary bring me a cup every day from now on. I'm busy with work, so I don't have the leisure to grind coffee."

"You mean, I'm free?"

Qiao Muchen hurriedly said: "I didn't say that."

At the same time, Xia Siwan had already driven to the gate of Xi's Group.

She was about to get out of the car when the phone rang again.

Xia Siwan took her bag and interview materials, and put on her earphones again: "Hi, hello, Special Assistant Zhao."

"Sorry, Editor-in-Chief Xia, Mr. Xi...doesn't have time to be interviewed for this column."

"Really..." Xia Siwan said, "I won't need much time, just 10 minutes. Mr. Xi can simply answer a few questions."

"Sorry, Editor-in-Chief Xia, I also fought for you."

Xia Siwan walked up the steps in a hurry, entered the Xi's Group, and said, "Zhao Tezhu, I have already arrived at the lobby of the Xi's Group. How about this, I want to meet Mr. Xi, just two minutes."

"Editor Xia..."

"That `s a deal."

Xia Siwan hung up the phone and immediately ran towards the elevator.

It was working time at this time, and the elevator was idle. Xia Siwan didn't have to wait long before the elevator door opened.

She went in.

At the same time, the elevator door next to her opened slowly.

Qiao Muchen came out from inside, followed by the secretary in a suit and leather shoes, walking out at a very leisurely pace.

He has always been so lazy, his laziness reveals his shrewdness.

Xia Siwan looked down at the documents in her hand, but she didn't look up, let alone notice the person passing by outside the elevator door.

She silently observed for four years, waiting for that person.

Xia Siwan hurried to the top floor, just in front of the CEO's office, and saw Zhao Xu.

"Zhao Special Assistant." Xia Siwan said, "I'm here, is Mr. Xi in there?"

"Sorry, Editor-in-Chief Xia, Mr. Xi refuses to meet you, nor will he accept your interview."

Due to Xia Siwan's identity and her profession, Zhao Xu was also very polite to her.

People on the media side must not offend, Zhao Xu knew this very well.

"Zhao Tezhu, I also understand that Mr. Xi has not accepted any interviews for so many years. But I think it is also very good to make a breakthrough."

"I think so too, but Mr. Xi..."

"The sales volume of our Xinying magazine is also ranked in the top five in Liangcheng. This pair of Mr. Xi's personal image will expand his popularity..."

Zhao Xu smiled: "Editor Xia, our President Xi, even if we don't do any packaging, we are already very famous."

Xia Siwan also smiled: "The icing on the cake, isn't it better?"

Just as he was talking, Xi Jinnan suddenly came out from the inside. The sharp-eyed Xia Siwan immediately left Zhao Xu behind and went up to him: "Mr. Xi!"

Xi Jinnan looked at the person in front of him, frowned slightly, and did not speak.

Xia Siwan introduced herself: "Mr. Xi, hello, I am the editor-in-chief of Xinying Magazine, Xia Siwan, I..."

"I don't accept interviews, thank you."

After Xi Jinnan finished speaking succinctly, he looked up at Zhao Xu: "The meeting in 10 minutes will be held as usual. Give me the information. I'll go to the meeting room now."

"Okay, Mr. Xi."

Xia Siwan was completely pushed aside.

But she didn't give up, and turned her eyes: "Mr. Xi, otherwise, since you don't have time, as far as I know, there is another person in the Xi's Group who also meets our interview requirements...

When Xia Siwan said these words, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

She was waiting for this moment.

When the secretary told her that the interviewees were the two presidents of Xi's Group and Ji's Group, the first thing that flashed in her mind was the appearance of Qiao Muchen.

He is well-known in Xi's Group.

Xia Siwan also understands this President Xi's temper. I heard that except for his wife who is tender and tender, he is cold to everyone else.

So this interview is enough.

But... Her goal is not President Xi at all, but President Qiao, Qiao Muchen!

I don't know where Xia Siwan's words touched Xi Jinnan, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at her again: "Interviewing Qiao Muchen? Editor Xia, you are quite good at choosing the next best thing."

"You can't leave empty-handed, Mr. Xi, don't you think so?"

"I have no objection to interviewing Qiao Muchen, as long as he agrees." Xi Jinnan said, "However, I don't think he will agree."

But what Xia Siwan was waiting for was Xi Jinnan's words!

As long as he asks her to interview Qiao Muchen, from then on, she will have a legitimate opportunity to come to Xi's Group every day to meet Qiao Muchen!

"Okay, Mr. Xi." Xia Siwan suppressed the excitement in her heart, "Then I will come to your company to disturb you more, please don't mind."

"I don't mind," Xi Jinnan said, then paused, "If you can handle him, you're considered capable."

After speaking, Xi Jinnan turned around and left.

After all, he had just heard Qiao Muchen with his own ears, and he refused the interview just like him.

Zhao Xu smiled at her, turned around and went about his own business.

Xia Siwan immediately took out her mobile phone, and immediately found Qiao Muchen's phone number, staring at it while walking, but didn't dare to call it.

she is afraid...

So nervous, so nervous, for the past four years, she didn't dare to get close to him, she has been growing up silently, to the point where, when standing in front of him, she amazed him.

It took her four years to prepare, and it's already...almost.

She knew all of Qiao Muchen's hobbies and collected all the information about him. She dared to say that she knew him better than Qiao Muchen herself!

Xia Siwan walked to the end of the corridor, by the window on the floor, took several deep breaths, and then carefully pressed the dial button.

She even took her breath lightly, waiting for the call.

Now she... should be able to appear in front of him.

Every second was a torment for Xia Siwan.

This long wait for the ringtone is really too difficult.

Finally, a deep "Hello" sounded on the other end of the phone, and Xia Siwan felt that she was about to be unable to breathe.

"You... hello." Xia Siwan's voice was a little trembling, and she felt her tongue was tied up, "I, I, I..."

"Speak directly if you have anything to say." Qiao Muchen seemed a little impatient on the other end of the phone, "I'm very busy now."

Because in Qiao Muchen's view, this is an unfamiliar number, he has never seen it before.

But the person who can have his private number is not a random little person.

And he heard the voice, or a girl.

"Mr. Qiao, are you in the office now?"

"No, I just came out."

"Mr. Qiao, it's...it's like this, I, I...is Xia from Xinying Magazine..."

Before Xia Siwan even finished saying her name, Qiao Muchen had already interrupted her: "Xin Ying Magazine? What's the matter?"

"That's right, we... want to make an interview with you..."

"Sorry, not interested."

"But……"

Before Xia Siwan could finish speaking, the phone had already been hung up.

Qiao Muchen didn't have time to talk to people from some magazines. When he was in Xi Jinnan's office just now, he heard some kind of interview. He probably found Xi Jinnan but found him instead.

Qiao Muchen didn't want to get involved in this, so he simply hung up the phone, saving trouble, and didn't bother to explain.

But what he didn't know was how much courage it took Xia Siwan to call him.

She looked at this phone number every night, but dared not dial it.

When she meets him occasionally, or sees him at some event, she also watches from a distance, not daring to approach him.

She knew everything about him, yes everything.

Including the woman in his heart - Yu Wan'an.

Xia Siwan returned to the magazine with her head downcast. Seeing her expression, the secretary knew that she hadn't succeeded: "Editor Xia, it's okay, we can still..."

"Let the responsible editor handle it." Xia Siwan said, "These important people don't want to show their faces. I tried my best, but there is no way."

"It's... Editor-in-Chief Xia."

Xia Siwan waved her hand, the secretary walked out and closed the office door.

She kept thinking, where did Qiao Muchen go?

Xia Siwan suddenly opened the drawer, and found a photo from the bottom.

The person in the photo is not Qiao Muchen, but a woman.

It is so beautiful that people dare not look directly at it, with exquisite facial features, it is the focus of attention wherever it goes.

Xia Siwan glanced at the photo, unconsciously raised her hand slowly, and touched her face.

Compared with the woman in the photo, she like this is far worse. Without this woman, she is one ten-thousandth more beautiful.

Xia Siwan clenched her hands tightly.

Then one day, Xia Siwan accidentally learned that Qiao Muchen was not at the company that morning, but went to Yu's house. I heard that... that day was this woman's birthday.

No wonder, his tone was a little impatient, he didn't want anyone to disturb him at that time, right?

——————————————————————————————————

Five months later, Melbourne.

Spring is blooming, and all things are revived.

Melbourne is finally not so cold, and the pace of spring is slowly approaching.

Yu Wan'an washed the thick winter clothes, down jackets and overcoats, put them in the closet, and hung them up one by one.

After finishing all this, she looked at the neat clothes in the closet and clapped her hands in satisfaction.

"Okay, it's done."

Yu Wan'an turned around and patted the head of the little boy beside her.

"Mommy, I want to eat noodles for lunch today."

"Yu Ting, do you want ordinary noodles or pasta?"

"It's just ordinary noodles." Yu Ting said, "Mom, my sister also wants to eat noodles."

"Really?" Yu Wan'an raised her eyebrows, "You told my sister secretly to let her speak with you, right?"

"Mommy, what is a unified caliber?"

Yu Wan'an burst out laughing: "It means you colluded."

"I didn't collude with my sister," Yu Ting said solemnly, "My sister is so fat, if she still eats hamburgers, she will get even fatter."

"Don't say my sister is fat!" Yu Wan'an warned very seriously, "My sister is of normal weight. If you say such things about her every day, it will easily hurt her self-esteem."

"Okay, okay, mom, I want to eat noodles, you go to cook."

"Where's your sister?"

"My sister is in the living room."

Yu Wan'an took Yu Ting's hand and walked out. Yu Youran was standing in the living room, holding the doll in one hand, and playing with the building blocks at his feet.

Seeing this scene, Yu Ting immediately said aggrievedly: "Mom, the building blocks I just piled up were pushed down by my sister..."

"Then you and your younger sister will start to pile up again, Yu Ting, be obedient and treat your younger sister well."

"Okay, Mommy."

Yu Wan'an patted Yu Ting's head again, smiled, and instructed: "You and your sister are playing here, and mom will feed you."

"Okay, Mommy."

As soon as Yu Ting heard it, he immediately jumped up and down, Yu Wan'an smiled helplessly.

This Yu Ting...why does he like noodles so much?

As a "native-born" foreigner, he doesn't like to eat pasta, but loves Chinese noodles very much.

Yu Wan'an sometimes thinks, this is... the power of genes?

She smiled, looked at the back of the two children playing together, turned and walked into the kitchen.

Looking at the scattered building blocks, Yu Ting said very sensiblely: "Sister, let's pile up the building blocks again, shall we?"

"Yeah!" Yu Youran nodded, and said happily, "Okay, okay, I like stacking blocks with my brother the most."

When Yu Wan'an was boiling water in the kitchen, she was still worried. She poked her head out of the kitchen and found that the two little guys were having a good time.

These two little guys...

Yu Wan'an cooked noodles, fried a poached egg for the two of them, and took them out: "Yu Ting, Youran, let's eat noodles together!"

"Okay!" Yu Ting hurriedly ran away, "Mommy, I'm so hungry."

Yu Youran said from behind: "Brother, brother, you didn't wash your hands! You can't eat yet."

"Look, Yu Ting, my sister is much more sensible than you." Yu Wan'an said, "Go wash your hands first, and then come to the dining table."

When eating noodles, Yu Youran didn't know how to use chopsticks yet, and Yu Wan'an was feeding him while Yu Ting was clumsily holding the chopsticks.

Both of them are four years old, Yu Youran is a girl, Yu Wan'an usually suffers from more pain, and often educates Yu Ting to be like a brother, and boys must learn to be independent.

Yu Youran looks pretty, and at such a young age, she can be seen as a beauty.

While eating noodles, Yu Ting glanced at his sister, and said proudly, "I eat faster than my sister."

Yu Youran said unconvinced: "You are a brother and a boy, of course you can eat faster than me! And I can't eat noodles by myself, I can't pick them up with chopsticks, so I have to feed my mother to eat..."

"Chinese children can use chopsticks, why can't you?"

Yu Wan'an paused slightly while feeding the noodles.

Yu Ting said again: "Mommy, when are we going back to China? My classmates say I'm Chinese, so why don't I go back to my own country?"

Before Yu Wan'an said anything, Yu Youran also said, "Yes, Mommy, when can we go back to China?"

"You two... really want to go back?"

"Yes!" The two said in unison.

Yu Wanan asked; "Why?"

Yu Ting took the lead in answering: "I want to go back to China, because Melbourne is not our home. Besides, I also want to visit my grandparents, grandparents, and my grandparents. When I grow up, I only have Mommy."

Yu Youran immediately said: "I will go wherever my brother goes, and I want to go back to my country too!"

Yu Wan'an looked at the two little ghosts, and suddenly asked: "Only Mommy, isn't it... not good?"

Yu Ting glanced at her, a little cautiously.

Seeing him like this, Yu Wan'an smiled, reached out and patted his head: "It's okay, tell me, mom won't mind."

Yu Ting then said with confidence: "Actually... Mommy is very good, but, but I also want a father."

"Don't you have a father?" Yu Wan'an said, "Who said you don't have a father?"

Yu Ting quickly said: "That's just a godfather, not a real father. I want my real father."

"If Uncle Shen hears what you say, he will be very sad."

"No, Father Shen told me quietly that he also wants to know who my father is."

Yu Wan'an's smile froze for a moment, and soon returned to normal: "Yu Ting, you have a lot of tricks, and Shen's father is very good, so that's good, godfather is also a father."

"That's different. That's not related."

"You kid..."

"Mommy," Yu Youran said suddenly, "Actually, brother is right. Why didn't daddy come to see us? It's always been Shen's daddy, or, mom, you should marry Shen's daddy!"

"What are you talking about..."

Yu Wan'an felt a headache, these two brats are weird.
