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

My question seemed to be asked very suddenly, and I clearly felt Mrs. Zhang Si's body stiffen for a moment.

But she soon smiled again: "We are old, unlike you young people who still care about love and romance."

I never asked her whether she loved Master Zhang.

What I asked was whether she was happy with Master Zhang Si.

But when she answered this way, the answer was very obvious: she was not that happy with Master Zhang.

That's right. Not to mention that Mr. Zhang has a strange personality and seems difficult to get along with, he has married four women in total. The complex relationships in such a large family are difficult for most people to adapt to and handle. Mrs. Zhang not only has to handle the relationships in this large family, but also has to coax Mr. Zhang. She must be unhappy.

But these things are all out in the open. She is so smart, she should have known these difficulties before marrying Master Zhang, but why did she still choose to marry Master Zhang? It is obvious that with her conditions, she could marry a better person even if she remarried.

Why did you choose Master Zhang?

At this moment, Mrs. Zhang Si smiled and added, as if unintentionally: "What we care about is a stable and peaceful life. As long as we feel at ease, that's enough."

After saying that, she lowered her head and touched the scar on her wrist, smiling lightly but with a hint of hidden hurt.

I immediately understood what she meant. She wanted to say that although she did not marry Mr. Zhang for love and was not that happy with him, she was a stable and down-to-earth person.

Maybe what she needed most at that time was not love or happiness, but stability and assurance.

But I am still thinking about the hidden wound in her eyes. She must have been in great pain and hardship during that period, otherwise she would not have given up asking for love and happiness, but only for stability and peace of mind.

For no reason, my mind suddenly popped up to the man I met at the Zhang family's old house yesterday. That man mistook me for Mrs. Zhang Si and said that Mrs. Zhang Si didn't want to see him. That man even peeked at me from a distance.

Is that person related to Madam Zhang Si? What happened between them? Could it be related to the scar on Madam Zhang Si’s wrist?

But I couldn't ask any more questions, for I was afraid that my questions would bring up Mrs. Zhang Si's painful memories and hurt her old wounds.

So I changed the subject: "I also like stability. I feel at ease and secure when I am with my godmother."

"Little girl, you are so sweet, and you can tell at first glance that you are good at coaxing people." Mrs. Zhang Si smiled, and her beautiful phoenix eyes formed a crescent shape. "But godmother loves you to coax me, and you are so sweet to godmother's heart."

"I'm not saying this to please my godmother. I really feel this way. My godmother's place is like my safe haven." I hugged her and looked up at her and smiled.

It's definitely not to make her happy, I really think so. People say that staying with your mother for half an hour is more effective than seeing a psychologist, and that's how I feel at the moment.

In the evening, Mrs. Zhang Si said that Mr. Zhang had gone on a business trip and she would not go home tonight. Zhang Tingyuan and Xiao Ye also came over, and the happy time for two people turned into that for four people. Mrs. Zhang Si, who cares about her skin and values ​​rest time, actually played with us until the early morning.

In the end, I fell asleep next to Madam Zhang Si. When I woke up the next day, Madam Zhang Si had personally prepared breakfast for me.

Looking back, this half day of warmth and happiness should be the most relaxing, solid and stable days for me in a long time to come.

After half a day's rest, I feel much better, I am full of energy and have regained my strength and confidence.

After breakfast, Yuan Tianye and I went to the company together. Zhang Tingyuan was going to the gym and happened to be on our way to the company, so he also wanted to take a ride.

Yuan Tianye was very impatient: "Hey, you have your own car, why do you have to force your way in? My sister's car is small to begin with, and if you are so big you just get in it, it will be overloaded. What if you puncture the tires? You should get out and drive your own car!"

As he spoke, he really wanted to kick Zhang Tingyuan out of the car.

Zhang Tingyuan did not fight back, nor did he fight back. He just held the back of my seat tightly with both hands, and said pitifully: "Sister, Xiaoye attacked me."

So, sometimes people compete not with brute strength but with skills. Xiaoyuan is very good at acting like a spoiled child.

He just looked at me pitifully, silently enduring Yuan Tianye's physical attack. I couldn't bear to watch him: "Xiao Ye, stop making trouble. Although my car is small, it can still accommodate the two of you. Fasten your seat belts, I'm leaving."

"You little bastard, you are the only one who knows how to fool people!" Although Yuan Tianye was very angry, he had no way to deal with Zhang Tingyuan and could only curse him inwardly.

I saw Zhang Tingyuan’s smug smile in the rearview mirror.

No wonder Madam Zhang Si said that the two of them were a pair of naughty boys. Normally, when they encountered any problems, they were united and invincible. However, once there were no external enemies, the two of them would fight among themselves, competing with each other and making small moves all the time.

But in my opinion, these two are not only naughty boys, but also funny ones. Every time I see them like this, I can't help but laugh.

Yuan Tianye sat in the passenger seat, his beautiful peach blossom eyes fixed on my face, smiling: "It seems that Aunt Zhang's beauty care really has a secret, sister is more beautiful today."

"That's right, godmother is my energy supply station." I said with a smile, "When I see her, all my worries disappear."

"What about me? What am I to my sister?" He immediately pointed at his nose with his eyes full of expectation.

Zhang Tingyuan in the back seat immediately poked his head out to answer: "You are an idiot."

"Hey, Xiaoyuan, you really deserve a beating!" Yuan Tianye was immediately irritated and turned around to start quarreling with Zhang Tingyuan.

It was early morning, and the orange sunlight shone in from the car window, reflecting on my face and on them. I felt that the whole world was warm and full of brilliant colors.

I was in a particularly good mood, so I was extremely motivated throughout the day and didn't feel tired at all.

Until that afternoon, when I was busy discussing the level content with Xi Ying, the mobile phone placed on the corner of the desk suddenly vibrated.

My discussion was interrupted and my brows were slightly frowned, but when I saw that it was my aunt calling, I immediately grabbed the phone and paused the discussion with Xi Ying.

Xi Ying saw that I was not in a convenient position, so she immediately picked up her computer and said that she would go to Ma Ning to discuss it first, and then left my office.

I then answered my aunt's phone and asked softly, "Aunt, what's wrong?"

On the other end of the phone, my aunt's voice trembled: "Xu Xu, your uncle, your uncle is in trouble."
