After coming out of the office building, Wen Shan decided to head home for lunch. She was reluctant to have her meal in a restaurant.
Due to Xiao Yaojing’s pregnancy, she had been promoted to the highest status in the family. Her mother was very generous in purchasing food ingredients and every meal was of a higher standard these days.
When Wen Shan arrived home and opened the door, Xiao Yaojing was sitting on the sofa watching TV. She turned around when she heard the door open. “Why are you back?”
“Lunch. Didn’t my brother forbid you from watching TV?” Wen Shan put the keys in her bag and entered the house.
“Your brother is crazy. Do you expect me to be as crazy as he is?” Xiao Yaojing sneered. Wen Tao had gone haywire ever since they had found out about her pregnancy.
“Don’t touch this!”
“Don’t do that!”
“Don’t use this!”
“Don’t take that!”
Xiao Yaojing was very appreciative and grateful when Gu Juexi asked Wen Tao to stay back for overtime. She had learned her lesson.
Wen Shan laughed out loud and jumped onto the sofa. “He’s a first-time dad, of course he will be a little antsy and nervous about it.”
“He is overreacting and overdoing it. He even confiscated my phone because he was afraid that I was going to use it. Why doesn’t he get rid of the TV too? By the way, how stupid can he be? Who owns only one phone nowadays?” Xiao Yaojing snarled while glancing at the other phone she was charging.
“Hahaha! My brother’s IQ is certainly questionable.” Wen Shan laughed so hard she was doubled over, clutching her stomach. “Where are Mom and Dad?”
“Mom went downstairs to buy black chicken and our dads are playing chess,” Xiao Yaojing said. She turned to Wen Shan and asked, “By the way, any updates on your graduate teaching assistant job?”
“The deal is sealed. Anyway, I have even more exciting news to share! Guess what it is? Although I doubt you will know.”
“How should I know what’s got you so excited? Unless you’re telling me that Leonardo DiCaprio is coming to China, then I’ll be more excited than you.” Xiao Yaojing looked askance at Wen Shan.
Wen Shan rolled her eyes briefly then grinned in delight. “If! Do you know If? He is my idol!”
“Isn’t Nalan Chunbo your idol?” Xiao Yaojing asked instinctively but instantly realized her mistake and smiled at Wen Shan. “I’m sorry, it’s over. I know it’s over.”
Wen Shan’s expression changed for a second.
“But, isn’t If a mathematician? And an economist on top of that. What does he have to do with your physics department? He should be joining the mathematics department, right?”
“Of course not! My supervisor told me that he is going to join our department because we are focusing on the development of mathematical physics,” Wen Shan uttered as she removed her shoes. She grabbed Xiao Yaojing’s snacks and said while munching on them, “I don’t think my supervisor will lie to me.”
“Young and naive ladies like you are so gullible. Why would he go to your college and take a job when he has an annual salary of hundreds of thousands?” Xiao Yaojing scoffed, laughing teasingly. “I heard that this If is a nominal director in several large companies around the world, and his monthly salary is much higher than a dean’s several annual salaries combined.”
Wen Shan kept munching on the snacks. She pondered before saying, “Maybe it’s because our college has charmed him. For example, having a gorgeous future employee like me.”
“Hey, young lady, can you look up ‘shame’ in the dictionary please?” Xiao Yaojing snatched the bag of snacks from Wen Shan, glancing at the shameless girl in amusement.
“Anyway, I’ll believe whatever my lecturer told me.” Wen Shan opened another packet of snacks and started eating them.
“I heard from Yezi that Nalan Chunbo is going back to Country X,” Xiao Yaojing uttered while inching closer to Wen Shan. She caught the minor change of her expression.
“Okay, well, he is originally from Country X so it’s normal for him to want to go back there.”
