Su Ruowan didnât get that ten thousand dollars. It would be a lie to say that she didnât feel sad. She was browsing the recruitment advertisements with a frown on her face when her mobile phone rang again.
âRuowan,â Wu Lili greeted on the other end of the line. âI have good news for you! I found a good job. Do you want to take it?â
âA good job?â Su Ruowan got curious. âDid you find me another job like being a model or something? Lili, Iâm not suitable for that kind of jobââ
âNonono!â Wu Lili interrupted impatiently. âItâs not that kind of job this time. A friend of mine found something that will be suitable for you. Will you do it or not?â
âWhat is it?â asked Su Ruowan in confusion.
Later, in the Li familyâs villa.
âJust call me Aunt Yang. Come on, let me tell you about your dutiesâ¦â As soon as Su Ruowan arrived at the Li familyâs villa, Aunt Yang kindly showed her around the house.
After explaining the allocation of the maids and the things that Su Ruowan needed to pay attention to, she finally added, âMr. Li is a workaholic. He leaves the house early and comes back late every day. You probably wonât cross paths with him. But you will definitely run into Young Master. Heâs very cute, but he is a little naughty and likes to play pranks on everyone. Otherwise, the turnover in the servants working here wouldnât be so high⦠But donât worry, he is in kindergarten now. Heâll only be at home during the weekends.â
Su Ruowan nodded as she listened.
Once she was sent to officially start working, she cleaned every room of the two-story villa and washed every sheet and quilt with great enthusiasm.
Although manual labor was simple and tedious, it gave her a sense of accomplishment. Even when she felt exhausted, she motivated herself by thinking, âCome on, just keep working! I have to work hard to raise Jiu Jiu!â
She even changed her display name on her Weibo account to âWork Hard For Cute Babyâ!
Although she deliberately ignored the messages that were pouring in from strangers, she still felt a little startled and helpless seeing a steep increase of more than 10, 000 in the number of followers she had⦠She couldnât understand how people could be idle enough to spend so much time gossiping on the internet every day. In fact, it was all Jing Muchenâs fault. As soon as he returned from abroad, he had created a Weibo account. Although he hadnât posted anything yet, he had already amassed nearly ten million followers, consisting mostly of desperate fangirls. He was really a playboy!
After completing all her tasks, Su Ruowan found that it was still early, so she stayed and chatted with Aunt Yang for a while.
She told her that she had a four-year-old daughter who was studying in Jin Daishu Kindergarten. Unexpectedly, Aunt Yang patted her thigh and smiled. âWhat a coincidence! Young Master was recently transferred to Jin Daishu Kindergarten, too. Thatâs really good. Lao Zhou will go there to pick him up, so he can give you a ride as well.â
Although Su Ruowan felt a little embarrassed, she had no choice but to agree.
When she walked out of the gate, she found a black car waiting there. Lao Zhou, the driver, was an honest man in his 40s. Once Su Ruowan climbed into the car, he drove to Jin Daishu Kindergarten with a simple smile on his face.
It was Friday, so the students were let off a little early. By the time the black car arrived at the gate of the kindergarten, most of the children had already been picked up by their parents.
From afar, through the car window, Su Ruowan saw a female teacher in a light blue dress standing at the school gate, holding hands with Jiu Jiu and Yan Yan.
When the car stopped, Su Ruowan said to Lao Zhou, âI saw my daughter. Thank you, Mr. Zhou.â
Lao Zhou nodded with a polite smile.
After getting out of the car, Su Ruowan waved cheerfully to Jiu Jiu. When Jiu Jiu saw her mother stepping out of the car, her eyes widened with curiosity. âMommy!â
Su Ruowan bent down and picked her up before glancing at Yan Yan. âHello there.â
Yan Yanâs eyes lit up. With a bright smile, he greeted, âBeautiful sister, we meet again!â
With her hands around Su Ruowanâs neck, Jiu Jiu asked softly, âMommy, why did you come here with Yan Yanâs father today?â
Father? Su Ruowan was still reeling from surprise when she heard Lao Zhouâs voice from behind. âMiss Su, is this your daughter? She is so cute!â
Turning around, Su Ruowan saw Lao Zhou walking over with a kidsâ water bottle. Standing beside her, Yan Yan said with dissatisfaction, âLao Zhou, you are late again!â
Lao Zhou just smiled and handed the bottle to Jing Yanxi. âYoung Master, letâs get in the car.â
Yan Yan lifted the lid of the bottle and took a sip of water. Then, he raised his left eyebrow and said, âDonât you see that my friend is here? Why should I get in the car?â
Su Ruowan was taken aback to see the young boy act in such a gentlemanly way.
Yan Yan walked up to her and held her hand. He grinned and said, âBeautiful sister, did Lao Zhou drive you here to pick up Jiu Jiu? Let him drive you home, okay?â
Yan Yanâs little hand was so warm and soft that Su Ruowan couldnât help but squeeze it. For some inexplicable reason, she was very fond of this child. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that he resembled Jing Muchen⦠But how could it be possible? Yan Yanâs family name should be Li.
With a smile on her face, Su Ruowan gently declined his offer. âNo, thanks. Weâre not heading the same way.â
Yan Yan immediately pouted. He glanced at Lao Zhou and said, âWe can go home after we send you home.â
Seeing Su Ruowan hesitating, Lao Zhou chimed in, âMiss Su, please get in the car. It seems that Young Master likes you very much.â
Eventually, the four of them got in the car together.
Sitting with the two children in the back seat, Su Ruowan told Lao Zhou the address of her house, and the black car started slowly.
