She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

When the moon hung on the branches, I returned to my childhood courtyard.

Looking around, the entire courtyard has traces of time. On the mottled courtyard walls, you can still see withered ivy, and under the corners, there are several pots of dead branches and leaves that have been tossed by the winter.

Everything seems to be the same as before, but something is different.

When I was lost in thought, a milky sound interrupted my thoughts: "Xu Xu, it's Xu Xu."

I looked for my voice and saw my little girl with two cute pigtails running towards me quickly. Suddenly, the little guy hugged my leg and wouldn't let go.

The aunt who heard the commotion staggered out. When their eyes met, she smiled softly and said, "What are you doing standing there stupidly? The meal is just right. Let's start the meal."

Nannan responded, holding my index finger tightly with one small hand: "Let's go, Xu Xu eats."

In the main room, the ancient wooden tables are filled with tables of all sizes, all of which are my favorite dishes.

Looking at my aunt's left foot, which was shaking wildly, my nose was sore and I almost shed tears.

My aunt is a poor girl, so she has to prepare these dishes and take care of her daughter, so she has been busy for a long time.

She placed the bowls and her daughter put the chopsticks. The old and the young cooperated tacitly, and the daughter arranged them in a decent manner. It was obvious that she was very well-educated by her aunt.

Looking at the empty bowls placed on the main seat, Nannan explained to me: "This is for my great-grandmother."

My aunt smiled warmly: "Nanny, you're welcome. She's smart. Her language has improved rapidly recently. After learning three hundred Tang poems for a month, she can basically recite a lot. She's a good candidate for reading."

Nannan grinned and said: "Lao Jiao said that as long as I know how to do everything, he will take me to the most beautiful kindergarten."

While she was talking, her beautiful eyes were staring at me, as if waiting for my answer.

I nodded: "After my daughter finishes her examination, we will go choose a school, okay?"

Nannan blinked and said cautiously: "Then will I be able to see Lao Jiao and Xu Xu more often in the future?"

"I'm busy with work," I declined, avoiding her gaze, "but Lao Jiao will always be with you."

Nannan responded softly: "That's not bad either."

This meal made me feel very uncomfortable.

After dinner, my aunt coaxed my daughter to sleep. The little guy lay on the bed obediently and fell asleep soon.

My aunt came out of the bedroom and went to the next door to make my bed. While making it, she said, "Nanny is such a good child. She actually misses you a lot, but she didn't show it."

I thought about the look in the little guy's eyes when he secretly handed me over just now, and I had mixed feelings for a moment.

But the aunt changed the subject and said, "I heard from your uncle that you still have some business dealings with the Zhou family?"

I walked over, took my aunt's hand, and comforted her: "Doing business in Beijing and Hong Kong is no different from other places. You always need to have some connections, but don't worry, we are just making money together."

The aunt nodded gently and said, "That's good. I don't have any other wishes now. As long as you are well and my daughter is well, I will be satisfied."

"Don't worry, the surgeon in charge is very experienced."

"No matter how experienced I am, my daughter is still a child," my aunt's eyes suddenly turned red, "and she is still in Beijing and Hong Kong, Xu Xu, I always feel a little uneasy in my heart."

"Don't worry," I squeezed my aunt's hand, "I've made all the arrangements."

My aunt wiped her tears and asked, "By the way, did you find out any news about your father during your trip to Beijing and Hong Kong?"

I shook my head: "Not yet."

"Forget it, he's gotten used to being crazy outside for so many years," my aunt waved her hand, "It doesn't matter whether he comes back or not."

Of course I knew that this was not what she really meant, so I comforted her: "It's been too long, so we can't rush."

My aunt looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. You should go to bed early. You have to drive tomorrow morning."

I lay on the bed obediently, but I tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep.

At this time, the phone rang, and it was Wu Ling's call.

"Xuxu, I have good news for you. As of ten minutes ago, the number of wishlists for "Story" has exceeded 100,000. This is a good sign."

This data is within my expectations. After all, with the topic of Xiaoyaoke's painting style, the number of discussions on Weibo Tap Water has exceeded 10,000, not to mention the recommendations of several high-quality players, so the data is not bad.

"By the way, I have made an appointment with the editor-in-chief of "Start" magazine to meet tomorrow morning. This magazine still has a very high status in the domestic gaming circle. As long as we can negotiate a cooperation, half of the publicity and distribution work will be completed." Wu Ling fighting spirit Gao Yang, "You know how many users we will have by then..."

"Okay, I'll go back tomorrow morning and report back to the company at noon at the latest."

"Don't be in a hurry," Wu Ling comforted me, ""Hero" is also progressing in an orderly manner. You should arrange your family affairs first."

My heart felt warm and tears almost came out of my eyes.

At dawn, I drove an old man and a young child from Bengcheng. After a three-hour journey, we arrived at the Provincial Children's Hospital on time.

My uncle was already waiting. After seeing my daughter, he ran over quickly and held the little one in his arms.

"Do you want to... miss Lao Jiao?"

Nannan smacked her uncle on the face and said sweetly: "I miss Lao Jiao the most."

The two of them were happy and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

The next time is to arrange hospitalization and basic examination. It is already two hours after the whole process is completed.

Director Hao knew about our situation and said, "Nanny's situation is special. She will be hospitalized for observation first. It will take about a week after all the items have been checked. Then we will discuss the time of surgery."

I know this is the best outcome.

Before returning to the ward, my aunt glanced at me and asked, "Why don't you go in and tell me?"

"As long as you're here, there's no need," I looked away and said, "Call me if you need anything."

It was an hour after I returned to the company. When I entered the door, I happened to meet Feng Wenting coming out of the tea room. She looked me up and down and said, "Is Manager Meng in good health?"

Her voice was not loud, but her questioning words still attracted the attention of other colleagues.

Xiaoya was even more confused and asked curiously: "Sister Nanxu, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

I glanced at Feng Wenting and replied, "I'm fine. I'm in good health."

"Oh, really?" Feng Wenting answered immediately and said in a puzzled tone: "My friend saw you near the provincial hospital this morning. I thought you were feeling unwell and went for a check-up."

To the right of the Provincial Hospital is the Provincial Children's Hospital, but both hospitals are divided into new areas and old areas. In order not to attract other people's attention, I deliberately chose the new area with fewer people. I never thought that Feng Wenting's friends would notice it.

I thought about Hengmei Plastic Surgery, which is close to two hospitals, and said calmly: "I just went to Hengmei, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

"Hengmei, isn't it a plastic surgery hospital?" Lin Xixi's soft tone came from behind, and she said in a nonchalant tone: "Sister Nan Xu has such a good appearance, does she still need plastic surgery?"

I turned around, looked into Lin Xixi's inquiring eyes, and said, "Yes, I'm here to consult on other projects."

"Oh, what project?" Lin Xixi broke the casserole and asked, but there was a trace of provocation hidden in her eyes.

I smiled lightly, walked up to her in two steps, and whispered, "Tattoo removal."
