Yan Xia had just recovered from the news, but before she could think about it, her phone rang.

It was Mother Jiang, Liang Lan.

“Xia Xia, what did the doctor say? Are you pregnant?”

“The doctor said it’s just a stomachache,” Yan Xia replied. “Don’t worry, Mother. I…”

Yan Xia paused for a moment. After some thought, she decided not to tell Liang Lan that she could no longer get pregnant.

Although this mother-in-law, Liang Lan, was a little harsh with her words and cared about the Jiang family’s heir far more than she did about Yan Xia, she was still good to her on the whole.

After being married to the Jiang family for so many years, if it wasn’t for this mother-in-law who mediated between them, perhaps she and Jiang Huai would have fallen out even more.

Liang Lan nagged for a few more minutes. It was nothing more than the usual cliché topics like ‘you must take supplements’ and ‘you must do examinations’.

“Xia Xia, you’ve been working hard at the company. Why don’t you talk to Jiang Huai about it so that you can stay at home and prepare for your pregnancy? Just find him a new secretary.”

Yan Xia had always valued her work. She wanted to be financially independent and support herself, so she always avoided this topic and just dealt with it.

“Mother, Jiang Huai is already very considerate of me. He rarely makes me work overtime. It’s not hard at all. Mother, don’t worry.”

“You young people just don’t listen to advice. Forget it. Remember to call Jiang Huai back for dinner tonight.”

Go home for dinner?

Yan Xia sighed. She was most afraid of going home and facing the two elders of the Jiang family.

Putting down her phone, Yan Xia gathered herself and got ready to get out of bed.

She didn’t know why, but she felt a little suffocated, so she skipped through the row of cool-colored clothes in the dressing room and chose a suit she rarely wore.

She was wearing a short white dress that was not too tight and could also show her figure. She put on apurple lavender suit jacket that was slightly tight around her waist. She had the aura of a capable woman.

Her outfit attracted a lot of attention as she entered the company.

Secretary Liu Yu jogged to her side and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Sister Yan, you should wear more of these bright-colored clothes in the future. It’s too eye-catching! You’ve been wearing black, white, and grey suits all the time, and I’ve almost forgotten about your beauty.”

Yan Xia was pleased, but she pretended to be serious. “Stop being so talkative. How’s the preparation for the handover going? I have to complete the handover today, so I’m moving my things and leaving~”

Liu Yu pouted. “They say that a woman’s heart is like a pin at the bottom of the ocean. I feel that our president is the one whose heart is at the bottom of the ocean. He inexplicably sent his wife to suffer in a newly established subsidiary company. Who doesn’t know that a newly established company has a lot of things to do!”

As they spoke, Yan Xia had already reached the office. She subconsciously looked up at Jiang Huai’s office and saw that it was empty.

Jiang Huai was an extremely self-disciplined person. He was never late for work, but today was an exception.

Yan Xia started to pack up, not forgetting to give Liu Yu some details.

“Remember that President Jiang doesn’t see any guests for the two hours at noon. Don’t make any mistakes when making arrangements and be more careful. I’ve summarized President Jiang’s personal habits. I’ll send it to you on WeChat later.”

Liu Yu looked at the white chat box that filled her WeChat and complained, “President Jiang is really hard to please, he actually has so many habits! Now, I can’t be confident that I won’t make any mistakes.”

Liu Yu put away her phone and helped Yan Xia put her things back into the box. “Sister Yan, I’ve asked around. The new company is full of new employees. You’re the only one who was transferred there. You should remember to let them know that you’re Madam Jiang and suppress them with your status first!”

“You’re so talkative. I’ve always relied on my abilities to manage people,” Yan Xia said.

Liu Yu pouted and did not comment.

Yan Xia couldn’t help but think, ‘They’re all newbies. Jiang Huai doesn’t want people to know that I’m his wife?’

If it wasn’t for Liang Lan’s insistence on announcing the news and making it a hot topic on Weibo during the wedding, not many people in the company would have known that she was the president’s wife.

To Jiang Huai, marrying her was probably an embarrassing matter.
