Chu Molin was not just unreliable; he was extremely unreliable.
Because, deep down, he didn’t want Xiao Qi to come over at all. What if he started coming over often to freeload? Chu Molin only had one day off every Saturday. If Xiao Qi, the “human light bulb”, wanted to join in, how would Chu Molin get any alone time with his wife?
Qin Xue would definitely laugh at his face if she knew what he was thinking, and she would be eager to invite more people over.
“Chu Molin, if you don’t invite him, I’ll go myself,” Qin Xue thought. This was a housewarming party after all. They had to invite some outsiders, or else what would they celebrate with just the two of them?
“I’ll go; you watch the child,” Chu Molin reluctantly agreed, knowing that it would not look good to have his wife, a woman, inviting other men over. It was better for him to do it himself.
Qin Xue just placed the dishes on the table and hadn’t served the rice yet. They were probably going to drink, so they could serve the rice after finishing the drinks.
“Xue Ling, this is for you,” Qin Xue brought a plate of braised pork into the space for Xue Ling.
“Wow, thank you, Master! You’re the best,” Xue Ling was drooling; although the pork outside wasn’t as delicious and full of spiritual energy as the pork in the space, it was still meat.
That’s why Xue Ling felt very lucky.
“You’re welcome. Enjoy your meal,” Qin Xue patted her head. Xue Ling’s white hair was so soft and smooth. It had an incredible texture.
“Mm-hmm,” Xue Ling quickly continued eating without paying much attention to Qin Xue.
Qin Xue didn’t mind being ignored, and she left the space to check on the baby and feed her. She then waited for the two men to come back for dinner.
“Hey, boss, what brings you here?” Xiao Qi had just returned and hadn’t had time to change his clothes when Chu Molin arrived.
“Xue’er cooked dinner and wants to have a housewarming party. She invited you,” Chu Molin glanced at him indifferently.
“That’s great! Can we bring two more people, though?” Xiao Qi asked as he planned to change his clothes and go out for dinner.
“Who?” Chu Molin guessed who it would be, but he wanted confirmation.
“Zhaozi and An’an. Who else could it be?” Xiao Qi casually answered as he took off his suit.
“It’s fine. They can come too,” Chu Molin thought that since they already had Xiao Qi, the “human light bulb”, it wouldn’t make much of a difference to have two more people.
“They’ll be here soon,” Xiao Qi checked the time and said.
“Mm.” Chu Molin sat down on a chair nearby.
“How’s your preparation going?” Chu Molin asked.
“Just a little bit more, and we’ll be ready. However, since we just started working here, it might take some time to transition,” Xiao Qi took off his tie, glanced at Chu Molin, and said
“Take your time,” Xiao Qi wasn’t worried, and he had confidence in doing it well.
“As long as you know what you’re doing, that’s fine. You know I can’t be involved in this,” Chu Molin was completely hands-off, only taking dividends and not interfering in anything else.
This was actually a great outcome for managers since there would be no conflicts in opinions, and any decision could be made swiftly without dragging on.
“When do you plan to let them know you’ve come to the Imperial Capital?” Xiao Qi poured a glass of water for Chu Molin.
“They might already know by now. Do you think their intelligence is so outdated?” Chu Molin scoffed, thinking that Xiao Qi was too naive. For people like them, they would know about any movements in the Imperial Capital as soon as they occurred. Would they still be in the dark up until now?
“You’re right; I was overthinking it,” Xiao Qi rubbed his nose, admitting that Chu Molin was right. Those women at home might come to catch him in a few days.
