Chapter 608
Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space
After Li Dabao dropped them off at Xiao Qiâs place, he helped load their luggage into Xiao Qiâs car.
âBoss, sister-in-law, are these my two nephews?â Xiao Qi asked, looking at Chu Molin and Qin Xue.
âStupid question.â Chu Molin wanted nothing to do with this blockhead.
âBoss, I just asked a question, whatâs with the disdain?â Xiao Qi helplessly looked at Chu Molinâs contemptuous expression and asked in silence.
âYou had to ask.â Chu Molin kicked him, Xiao Qi dodged quickly.
Heâd be shedding tears if he got kicked by his boss, the guyâs kicks could kill.
âLetâs get in the car. Weâve been waiting for you for quite some time. Speaking of which, boss, what were you doing? Why are you so late?â Xiao Qi knew his boss was usually punctual. This kind of mistake should not happen.
Qin Xue was dumbfounded. Fang Hong had asked her this earlier, and now Xiao Qi asked the same. It seems like today they couldnât escape this question.
âJust drive, stop the chit chat,â Chu Molin glared at him, couldnât he see that his wife was already quite embarrassed?
âBoss, not cool. Youâre late, but weâre not allowed to ask?â Xiao Qi voiced his dissatisfaction.
âWell, sorry. I overslept and held things up,â Qin Xue spoke up shyly.
âAh, haha, hehe, we canât blame our sister-in-law. Itâs normal for a woman to sleep in,â Xiao Qi didnât expect the delay was because of Qin Xue. He felt so awkward that he didnât know how to react.
Chu Molin gave Xiao Qi a look as if he were an idiot.
Xiao Qi felt truly wronged. How was he to know the delay was due to this reason? But his boss was really too indulgent of his sister-in-law. He broke his usual punctuality just so she could have a good sleep.
If Xiao Qi knew why Chu Molin broke this principle, he would surely disdain him.
âBoss, sister-in-law, youâre all seated now,â Xiao Qi reminded them, and then began driving.
In a place they canât see, pairs of resentful eyes stared at their departing car, âYou wait and see. If I canât have it, neither can you.â
During the journey, Xiao Qi and Chu Molin took turns driving.
âXueâer, if youâre tired, lean on me and take a nap, Iâll hold Da Ha,â Chu Molin said softly to his yawning wife.
âNo need. You should rest for a while. Youâll have to drive later. We canât risk driving while tired. Our safety depends on the driver,â Qin Xue was thinking about how many people died from fatigued driving in the modern world. They couldnât make that mistake.
âOkay,â Chu Molin didnât say what he originally intended to, and only replied with an âokay,â then closed his eyes to rest.
Xiao Qi looked at them from the rearview mirror, wondering where that carless woman was and what she was doing.
The woman Xiao Qi was thinking of was currently straightening out affairs within her family.
âMiss, these are the documents showing the secondary elderâs family embezzled public funds from the group,â Feng handed a stack of documents to Chu Beiying, or as she now should be called: Nangong Beiying.
âMiss, these are the files of descendants from various noble families and their ladies,â Yun also gave Nangong Beiying a stack of documents.
âMiss, these are the medicinal herbs you wanted,â Lei put a bag of herbs in front of Nangong Beiying.
âMiss, thereâs still no news about the eldest young master,â Rain spoke with some dejection. She was best at locating people, but why couldnât she find a single clue?
Their young master seemed to have completely vanished from the mortal world, without leaving a trace.
