Chapter 17

Yan Xia did not want to see Wu Chen because she did not want to think about what happened in the past.

At that time, the child was already in its first trimester. All the tests said that the child was very healthy, and her body was completely fine. She could provide the baby with sufficient nutrition.

However, it was ruined by a glass of wine that night.

She still didn’t know what was wrong with the glass of wine. With her alcohol tolerance, she couldn’t have collapsed after one glass.

When she woke up again, the house was a mess, and Wu Chen, who was also in a drunken stupor, lay beside her.

Due to Jiang Huai’s anger and the dispute between them, the child was lost without warning.

That kind of pain that felt like it was going to empty her whole body, the unbearable nature of loss continued to grieve her until now.

Every time she dreamed about it at night, it was as if she had fallen into an endless abyss. She struggled bitterly, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t grab onto the trees on the cliff and would never sink to the bottom.

Yan Xia forced herself to calm down and stopped a taxi to go home.

It had been three days since Jiang Huai left the country. They didn’t have a single phone call in the past three days, and the two of them had completely lost contact.

Yan Xia returned home from work, day after day, leading a boring life.

She didn’t search for any piano concerts, nor did she ask Liu Yu about Jiang Huai’s schedule.

She was competing with herself. As long as she didn’t pay attention to him, she wouldn’t be sad. Her feelings for Jiang Huai would also be hidden bit by bit. This was her usual trick.

After knowing that her feelings for Jiang Huai would never be reciprocated, she decided to keep it a secret forever. She didn’t want anyone to know that she liked Jiang Huai to protect her last bit of dignity. She didn’t want Jiang Huai to hurt her further with this incident.

This was the only way she could turn around when she left.

Yan Xia was lying on the massage chair when her phone rang.

It was Jiang Huai.

Jiang Huai had never taken the initiative to call her before. If there was anything, he would send her a WeChat message. This was the first time he had ever called her.

“How’s Sunny doing recently?” He spoke in a business-like tone.

Yan Xia stood up and picked up the week’s work report. She reported everything to him in detail, just like when she was the president’s secretary.

Jiang Huai listened attentively. He paused when he felt that something was wrong and gave his opinion. Yan Xia used her pen to draw circles on every point that he raised. Half an hour passed without her realizing it.

After he was done with the company’s procedures, he began to talk about some details.

“Have you found Zhang Ying’s manager?”

Yan Xia flipped through the documents. “There’s a suitable manager in the company. She’s the most experienced and has the most resources. She’ll have no problem managing Zhang Ying.”

“Is it Chen Yi?”

“Yes.” For a moment, Yan Xia forgot she was on the phone and thought that she was reporting to him face-to-face. She nodded subconsciously.

“She can’t. I remember that she only had one artiste under her when she came to the company. Including the company’s allocation, she now has at least three people under her. Give Zhang Ying a manager who can focus on her.”

Yan Xia was speechless. The company had just been established and there were already very few managers. It was a bit difficult to ask for a manager with qualifications and resources who could take care of one person wholeheartedly.

“But we don’t have enough people right now. Other than Chen Yi, there’s no other suitable candidate.”

“Then you do it.”

What?

Yan Xia could not help but roll her eyes. What was wrong with her boss? Did he not think that it would be awkward for them to let his wife be his white moonlight’s manager?

Seeing that Yan Xia wasn’t replying, Jiang Huai’s tone turned cold. “Is there a problem?”

It turned out that he had already decided to let her be the manager and called to inform her.

Yan Xia had thought that she was transferred to his agency because he did not want his first love to be jealous of her. In the end, he didn’t expect this person to do the exact opposite and arrange for the two of them to be together.

Yan Xia repeated the second rule three times in her heart: Never anger your boss.

“No problem,” she answered.
