My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 1053

Chapter 1053 This Is His Strong Suit

Lu Yunbing was rather mature and held a skeptical attitude toward Nan Xing's various acts of courtesy. “What on earth is going on? Why did you suddenly decide to take us out for fun?”

Nan Xing was also deeply troubled. He took a bite of dessert and said, “Do you know this tastes bitter to me right now?”

Lu Yunxue was rather puzzled. “How could this be? It's clearly very sweet!”

“You don't understand, when an adult is in pain, even the sweetest food tastes bitter!” said Nan Xing.

“Why are you feeling distressed?” Lu Yunxue asked, “Is it because you're sick?”

“It's not that. It's just that I can't bear the thought of you all leaving.”

Nan Xing had initially planned to put on a show of distress in front of the child, but to his surprise, he genuinely felt a pang in his heart, his eyes welling up with tears.

Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunbing were both a bit frightened, staring blankly at Nan Xing.

“Don't be scared. I'm okay. But it's true that your mom is going to take you away. I can't bear to part with you. That's a fact.”

The two children looked at each other in surprise. They hadn't heard about this. How could we just leave all of a sudden?

But judging by Nan Xing's demeanor, he didn't seem like he was lying. How could he possibly be lying when he's so upset?

“What on earth is going on?” Lu Yunbing asked.

Next, Nan Xing proceeded to give a rough explanation of the ins and outs of the matter.

The two children didn't quite understand everything, but they grasped the main point. Mommy is going to take us back to the capital.

Regardless of whether it was Lu Yunxue or Lu Yunbing, neither of them was particularly pleased with this decision.

From Flower City to the capital, and then from the capital to the Flower City again.

They were always moving and always changing places.

After much effort in getting to know a few friends, they had to leave just as they were starting to get along well.

Adults enjoyed the feeling of being on the road, but children generally did not.

Compared to adults, children clearly needed a greater sense of security.

Lu Yunbing and Lu Yunxue both fell silent, feeling a deep sadness in their hearts.

“Do you guys want to go back?” Nan Xing asked.

Lu Yunbing didn't express her opinion, but Lu Yunxue shook her head without hesitation. She really didn't want to. How wonderful Flower City is, with so many people who care about them, we have Dabao and Erbao here.

Once they returned to the capital city, they had to re-enter school and get to know other children.

Besides, in the capital, they would be under stricter control, which was no fun at all.

“Should we persuade your mommy not to return to the capital?” Nan Xing said.

“All right,” Lu Yunxue responded immediately.

But Lu Yunbing wore a face of doubt. “You must have tried persuading her already, but you couldn't convince Mommy.”

Nan Xing was rendered speechless. All right. You got me. You saw right through me again.

“I couldn't persuade her, but you guys might be able to.”

“No. If Mommy says we need to go back, she must have her reasons. Wherever Mommy is, I'll be there too!” said Lu Yunbing.

Nan Xing had a headache. This child is so naive it's frustrating, but when they're too sensible, it's equally overwhelming.

“The reason your mommy had to return to the capital was due to a misunderstanding. Right now, I'm trying to clear up this misunderstanding with her, but I need time. I'm not asking you to go against your mommy. I just need your help to buy some time. Could you at least not leave so soon, please?” Nan Xing asked.

The two children glanced at each other. “What do you want us to do?”

“Don't go home for now,” Nan Xing stated succinctly.

“That won't do. Where will we go if we don't go home?” Lu Yunbing asked.

“Go play with Dabao and Erbao. I'll let your mommy know that you're playing with them, so she won't worry,” Nan Xing said.

“Wouldn't Mommy want us home?”

“Just tell her that Erbao can't bear to see you leave and wants to spend a good day with you. Your mommy will agree.”

Upon hearing that, the two girls thought it was feasible.

In fact, they were also reluctant to part with Dabao and Erbao. They really wanted to spend some quality time with them.

It was hard enough for them to get used to that, and now they had to leave. They couldn't help but feel reluctant in their hearts.

After arranging things for the children, Nan Xing returned to the company and went straight to find Jiang Zhe.

The moment Jiang Zhe laid eyes on Nan Xing, he knew trouble had arrived.

“Jiang Zhe, you're quite the authority, daring to lay a hand on my people! Despite the Nan family being the largest shareholder of the Nanshi Corporation, you dare to grind my face into the ground?” Nan Xing said coldly.

Jiang Zhe looked terrified. “Please, Mr. Xing. Don't say that. If you say that, I feel like banging my head against the wall!”

“Well, go ahead, then!”

“But I have work tomorrow. If I get injured, I won't be able to prepare the documents for Mr. Chen's meeting,” Jiang Zhe said.

“Are you using Chen to pressure me?”

“That's not what I meant. I am truly sorry for what happened to Ms. Lu, but you should have already figured out what caused that incident. I'm just a small fry. There are things I can't decide on my own. I can only follow orders!” Jiang Zhe said with a pained expression.

“With just a word from you, the human resources department springs into action. You've truly become the most influential figure in Nanshi Corporation! This time around, you've fired Lu Jingyuan. Will I be the next one? Assistant Jiang, you and Lu Jingyuan are on the same level. On what grounds can you dismiss her? If you don't provide an explanation for this matter, I will bring it up at the board of directors! I want to know if the people in the company are still required to adhere to the company's regulations.” Nan Xing uttered coldly.

Jiang Zhe became even more terrified. This matter is too big for me to handle!

“Mr. Xing, you know very well that I had no control over the situation. Besides, that notice has been withdrawn. Ms. Lu can return to work now!” said Jiang Zhe. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“So, if you tell someone to leave, they must leave, and if you tell them to stay, they must obediently stay? Who do you think you are? Are you allowed to arbitrarily decide someone's comings and goings?” Nan Xing roared.

Jiang Zhe was truly distressed. Wasn't this Old Madam Feng's intention? You know the situation well. Why are you making things difficult for me? Could I possibly refuse when Old Madam Feng asked me to do something? Besides, all I did was make a phone call to the human resources department director. I didn't do anything else!

“I'm sorry, Mr. Xing. I'm willing to accept any punishment!” Jiang Zhe said, his head bowed low.

“Is that it? If I were to throw you off this building, would an apology suffice?” Nan Xing asked coldly.

“What do you want me to do? If you're suggesting I throw myself off a building, I won't do it. My worthless life isn't worth tarnishing the city's image,” said Jiang Zhe with a pained expression.

“I don't care how you do it. You have to keep Ms. Lu here. If she doesn't stay, none of you, including those in the human resources department, should even consider staying! How dare you lay a hand on my people as if I don't exist? Let's just wait and see!” Nan Xing said coldly and left.

Jiang Zhe hurriedly chased after him. “So what exactly should we do to make Ms. Lu stay?”

“How on earth am I supposed to know?”

Jiang Zhe was speechless.

“Mr. Xing, could you please guide us on what we should do next?” Jiang Zhe continued to seek advice.

“Beg her. What else can you do? Just tell her that if she resigns, dozens of you will have to resign as well. Ask her to forgive you all.”

Jiang Zhe didn't mind begging people because that was his strong suit.

As long as he could get things done, he was willing to humble himself to the dust.

However, Lu Jingyuan had always been aloof, so it was hard to say whether she would buy into that or not.
