Reborn: Instead of Chasing the School Beauty, I Chased Her Mother

"That car is really awesome, especially the convertible. If I had a convertible like that..."

"I'd definitely look super cool, all the girls would give me an extra glance."

Zhang Zhiyuan already began daydreaming.

"Don't worry, I'll put in some hard work during the winter break and see if I can get one."

Ziang Zexi said very seriously.

"Watch your kidneys..."

The group chatted away, and their conversation became increasingly uncontrollable. After all, they were all young people, so the pace of their talk was very fast.

...

At Wu Qingxian's company.

At that moment, Wu Qingxian was somewhat distracted in her work; her mind was full of Li Zhiyan.

The way she felt that night she celebrated her birthday, how she was in despair but then pulled out of it by him, was something she could never forget.

She watched him grow up bit by bit, and being so good to him was truly not in vain.

The kindness she showed to him, he remembered it all perfectly, clearly, and was very filial to her.

It's just that this kid always wanted to argue and not listen to her, which was a bit of a headache.

As Wu Qingxian was lost in her thoughts,

Bao Xunwen walked over. After being promoted to team leader, even the way Bao Xunwen walked was somewhat different.

He looked at his usual colleagues, now without the usual warmth in his eyes.

Instead, there was an air of superiority.

"Xiao Wang, be more serious about your work."

After casually criticizing a colleague,

Bao Xunwen announced that there would be overtime work that evening.

"There's some work in the team tonight."

"We need one person to stay and work overtime."

"There's overtime pay, who's willing to stay and work overtime?"

Everyone was used to overtime, but it was truly unusual for one person to work alone.

A few female colleagues felt it was a bit inappropriate.

After a middle-aged man volunteered to work overtime,

he was rejected by Bao Xunwen.

"Bro, you just celebrated your grandson's birth, you should spend more time with him at home."

"We can talk about overtime later."

Then, he turned his gaze toward Wu Qingxian, who was wearing an old-fashioned cheongsam.

"Xiao Wu." Stay updated via empire

"You stay and work overtime."

If it were a normal day with the chance to earn overtime pay, Wu Qingxian would be very willing, as she would have the company of other colleagues.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

But if she was to work overtime alone, that was definitely not okay, because Bao Xunwen would surely be there.

Each department's office is separate.

If she were to stay and work overtime,

it would mean being alone in a room with Bao Xunwen.

Under no circumstances could Wu Qingxian agree to such a thing, especially knowing Bao Xunwen's ill intentions toward her.

Moreover, Li Zhiyan had also warned her, and she could feel the boy's possessiveness toward her.

"No, Team Leader Bao, I have other things to deal with."

"Xiao Wu, you just joined us not long ago."

"If you don't work overtime, I don't think you're passionate about your job. Employees who are not passionate about their work, I'll consider submitting your name in the next round of layoffs."

While speaking, Bao Xunwen's voice was quite excited; was this the thrill that power brought?

Even as just a team leader in the company, he could easily manipulate his female subordinate.

If she didn't comply, he would let her lose her job.

"Alright then..."

Wu Qingxian reluctantly agreed and felt much more at ease after checking the fruit knife and anti-wolf spray in her bag.

If Bao Xunwen really had any indecent thoughts toward her,

then she would rather die than let him succeed.

Wu Qingxian's heart was firm.

...

After school in the afternoon, Li Zhiyan called Liu Meizhen.

After they met near Bao Xunwen's company,

Liu Meizhen affectionately grabbed Li Zhiyan's hand.

"Xiao Yan, I haven't seen you for so long, Auntie has missed you."

Although her time with Li Zhiyan had been brief,

Li Zhiyan's assistance on the bus had immediately endeared him to Liu Meizhen.

"Aunt Liu, you get off work so early at the hospital."

Noting Liu Meizhen's pink nurse uniform, Li Zhiyan knew she must have come straight from the hospital.

"Not really, Auntie usually gets off work at night, but since I am the head nurse, it's easier for me to ask for time off."

As the head nurse of the hospital,

Liu Meizhen was seriously dedicated to her job and didn't usually take time off, but today was an exception.

Li Zhiyan had discovered Bao Xunwen's secret, so she had to find out what was going on.

It was better to err on the side of caution.

"Aunt Liu, let's go. They've just finished work, and Uncle Bao should be going to eat now. It's a good opportunity to sneak into the department."

"Okay."

As soon as they finished speaking,

they saw Bao Xunwen leave the company building and head to Sha District Snacks.

Wu Auntie also came out shortly after because she had to work overtime that evening, which meant Wu Qingxian didn't have time to go home for dinner either.

"Great opportunity, Aunt Liu, let's go!"

After taking Liu Meizhen's hand, Li Zhiyan led her into the company's department.

"Aunt Liu, let's hide in this little corner."

After scoping out the area, Li Zhiyan chose a corner by the windows, where one had to walk over to see everything inside the corner.

Moreover, there were curtains for cover.

"Okay, Auntie will listen to you," she agreed.

They hid together in the corner.

After about ten minutes, Wu Qingxian returned first. The moment she did, Liu Meizhen was mostly convinced.

Li Zhiyan was such a good child; he certainly wouldn't lie to her.

Bao Xunwen, having become a team leader, really wanted to take advantage of his female subordinates.

And his intentions toward Wu Qingxian were clearly inappropriate; otherwise, he wouldn't have called her name when he was drunk last time.

Fearing discovery, Liu Meizhen and Li Zhiyan stayed very close together.

Li Zhiyan only had to look down to see an unfathomable ravine.

Furthermore, because Liu Meizhen was nursing, the scent was particularly rich and natural, filling the small space.

It made Li Zhiyan feel like he was back in his mother's arms.

The sensation of nursing was truly miraculous.

At that moment, Bao Xunwen walked in from outside.

Bao Xunwen was feeling triumphant at this moment.

In his mind, Wu Qingxian was already like meat on a chopping board, easily conquered by him.

Since she had agreed to work overtime, she must be afraid of losing her job.

For a woman from a poor family like her, he thought he could manipulate her with ease.

Faintly, he thought he smelled a scent of milk.

Could it be that this woman could give off such a scent without being pregnant? That would be even more top-notch!
