Suffering from morning sickness after divorce, CEO’s ex-husband chases her crazy

Chapter 117: Don’t give up the contract worth hundreds of millions, pick up your wife

Xu Zhiyang took the cucumbers, tomatoes and some rapeseed picked from the yard to the kitchen, and went back to the house to pack his suitcase. He kept thinking in his mind, is it really so troublesome to leave a job?

She packed her things and went to find her grandfather to say goodbye.

I went downstairs and found someone talking to my grandfather in the living room. He was thin and his voice was gentle and elegant. Who could he be if he wasn't my uncle?

"Uncle, are you here?"

Xu Zhiyang greeted politely and got to the point,

"Grandpa, I have to go back to the capital. I won't be able to stay with you for a while. I will come back after I finish my work."

Mr. Huo narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, that bastard had listened to what he said, so there was still room for discipline, and his efforts were not in vain.

"You are busy with your business. I have Lao Zhong with me and I don't need you. Young people should live a young life. Why are you guarding me, an old man?"

"Hey, grandpa, are you annoyed with me?"

The old man wiped his forehead and thought to himself, why do women of all ages like to ask such a question? His wife has been saying this all his life. He has not heard anyone ask him this question for a long time.

"I don't mind you. Go back quickly, pack your things and let the driver take them to you. Try to bring a small one for me next time."

Xu Zhiyang blushed at the joke.

Huo Zijin listened silently for a long time. He raised his arm and looked at his watch.

"It's almost time to eat. Why don't we leave after lunch? No matter how fast we drive on the expressway, it will take nearly four hours to get back to Beijing. If we leave without eating, I'm afraid I'll be hungry on the way."

When the old man heard that he was going to be hungry, he immediately changed his mind and said, "Yes, we will leave after eating. There is no rush now."

How can we let our grandson's daughter-in-law go hungry? This girl is already thin. If she doesn't take good care of her little body, how can she give birth to a great-grandson?

Huo Zijin covered his mouth and nose and coughed.

"I just happen to be leaving in the afternoon with you."

The matter was settled like this, and Xu Zhiyang followed suit.

Grandpa went back to the house to rest, leaving Xu Zhiyang and Huo Zijin in the living room.

After being embarrassed for a few seconds, Xu Zhiyang felt that he should say something to lighten the atmosphere.

"Uncle, why did you come here suddenly?"

"The old man came here with a large group of people from his family. The old house suddenly became a lot emptier. I was a little uncomfortable with it, so I just came over to see how you guys are getting used to it and if there is anything you need to buy."

"Grandpa has slept well in the past two days. He slept for nine hours the day before yesterday. It was breakfast time in the morning and Uncle Zhong woke him up."

The old man has a problem with insomnia, and the whole family knows it.For this reason, I have consulted many well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctors, but none of them have much effect. Being able to sleep for nine hours straight, for Mr. Huo, it is really a good sleep.

The corners of Huo Zijin's lips raised, his eyes fell on Xu Zhiyang's waist and abdomen for a few seconds and then quickly moved away.

"It seems that this place is suitable for the elderly and children. Why don't we buy a larger villa in Qin City in the future and decorate it properly. I think the repairs on this set are a bit perfunctory. I will have to find a decoration team in Beijing City next time."

Xu Zhiyang was surprised. The villa they lived in now was the largest villa in the nearby wealthy area along the coast. The decoration was certainly not as good as that of the old house, but it could be seen that a lot of money had been spent.

"Brother-in-law, you don't have to spend so much money. You don't live in the house here all the time. Even if you come here for a vacation in the summer, you can live there for less than three months out of the year."

Huo Zijin adjusted his glasses.

"If you like, you can stay here forever and never go back."

Xu Zhiyang vaguely felt that the content of the chat was a bit awkward, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Uncle, if Huo needs to submit a resignation report and hand over the work for one month before he can leave?"

"The company has such a rule. This rule is generally aimed at employees who are involved in important projects at their posts, such as department managers, vice presidents, etc. Ordinary employees do not need to be handed over for such a long time. If there are no tasks in hand, they can resign. You can leave on the same day, and the handover will take about a week at most.”

Xu Zhiyang chuckled inwardly and asked again,

"The resignation report must be approved by the Human Resources Department. Approvals by other leaders do not count?"

"No. The resignation report can be issued by any leader higher than the personnel manager."

"Can Huo tingshen handle the resignation of employees?"

Huo Zijin's eyes curled up.

"The HR manager's decision to go or stay is up to him. Do you think he has the authority to sign a resignation report for an ordinary employee?"

The fire in Xu Zhiyang's heart was burning. That bitch dared to believe that it was the personnel manager of the United Company who was trying to trick her into going back.

He won't let him get his wish.

In a blink of an eye, the kitchen aunt prepared a table of dishes.

Huo Zijin came today, and Auntie specially ordered some seafood.

At the dinner table, the old man did not forget to give instructions to the kitchen while eating.

"Bring them the snacks I made yesterday. If they get hungry on the way, fill them up. Fill up the hot water bottle and wash some more of the fruit."

Xu Zhiyang swallowed the food in his mouth and spoke with a guilty conscience.

"Grandpa, I don't plan to go back."

Grandpa’s movements of picking up vegetables paused.

"Why don't you go back?"

"Grandpa, I don't seem to have anything to do when I go back. I still want to stay here with you and enjoy the sea breeze."

The old man didn't say anything, but his heart was pounding. How could this young couple live in different places every day?Are you still planning to have a baby?The meal that Lao Zhong delivers to the two children at noon every day is in vain.

Aunt Li, who was cooking in the kitchen, came over and asked,

"Old man, do you still need to prepare food?"

Mr. Huo looked at Huo Zijin who was engrossed in eating beside him.

"Get ready, there's another person who needs to take the car."

Huo Zijin put down his chopsticks and said,

"Dad, I won't leave in the afternoon. I'll leave the company's affairs to my subordinates. I'll stay with you for a few days."

Now that neither of them is leaving, what else is left to deal with?Mrs. Li returned to the kitchen and continued scrubbing and cleaning. The driver who was getting ready to drive also relaxed and could take a nap after eating.

Only the old man didn't show anything on the surface, but he was vaguely unhappy in his heart. He wanted to send his granddaughter-in-law back as soon as possible.

After dinner, when he returned to the study, the old man told Uncle Zhong to call the kid and ask him to put down everything he was doing and come over to pick up his wife.

Uncle Zhong immediately dialed the number and pressed the speakerphone. After a few beeps, the call was connected.

"Mr. Huo, the old man asked you to come over immediately to pick up the young lady."

Huo Ting was silent for a few seconds.

"She hasn't left yet?"

"The young lady originally planned to leave with your brother-in-law after lunch, but during the meal they changed their minds for some reason."

When Huo Ting heard that Huo Zijin had gone there, he felt unhappy. In the past, this filial son was recuperating outside and could not come back twice a year. Now he suddenly has to fulfill his filial piety?

He ran over to guard his father after not seeing him for three days. Why was he so unbelieving?

Huo Tingshen immediately called Jiang Zheng.

"Cancel the dinner with Mr. He in the evening, move the important meeting to the afternoon, and don't arrange anything after seven o'clock in the evening."

Although Jiang Zheng didn't know the reason, he blindly guessed that it was related to his wife.

The dinner with Mr. He in the evening was scheduled a week ago. Huo has been purchasing raw materials for jewelry from overseas, which are expensive.

Mr. He from Jingyao specializes in gem purchasing business. He takes over it directly from the mine, eliminating a few middlemen. The price is half cheaper than what Huo's bought. If this cooperation is reached, Huo's annual cost will be at least Save hundreds of millions.

Is there anything else that would make him push back a contract worth several hundred million?

"Mr. Huo, it's hard to make an appointment with Mr. He. If you push me this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make an appointment again."

"If we can't make an appointment, we won't make an appointment. The Huo family's business can't be done?"

Jiang Zheng was choked and hurriedly made arrangements.
