C12 A Dull Life for a Family of Three

She was stunned. Looking at his daughter's inquiring gaze, she actually tacitly agreed.

When she had nowhere to go, he was her most reliable safe haven.

His daughter quickly accepted her presence, because her arrival made the family more like a family, and her father did not make her part of the family. More importantly, she had lost her mother long ago, her father had never married, and this woman, known as Aunt Mei, had given birth to her father's child. There was a woman and a girl, and the age difference was ten years. Although there was a difference in seniority, they were more like a pair of close friends. Tian Tian had always been rather casual with this Aunt Mei.

When this child who was not even a year old said "Daddy" first, both he and she were shocked on the spot.

When Tong Zimei first heard "father", her heart felt as if it had been cut open by a sharp blade. It hurt so much that she almost dropped the knife she used to cut vegetables.

She pretended not to hear.

But as time went on, her son fell in love with this "father." Every day when he went to work at the company, he would come home and tease the child, and when he heard the child call him "father," he would smile very gently. He was already near his prime, but he only looked to be in his early thirties at the most. Standing together with her, he was still a good match.

Over time, she also agreed with the child that this was his "father."

However, the good news didn't last long. When Tong Zimei thought her days would continue peacefully like this, the man she called "Big Brother" never returned from a foreign business trip.

She and his daughter were devastated by the unexpected news. She was twenty-five, Tian Tian was fifteen, and her son Jane was five.

Fortunately, the company paid a large amount of pension.

When she took Tian and Jane to his company, they thought he had three children.

When they heard that she was his wife, the company members were even more shocked. However, this does not affect the rate at which they pay their pensions. But she and he were only husband and wife in name, and there was no marriage contract, and the beneficiaries of the pension were his two children, Tian Tin and Jane, and she was the custodian of the pension.

Well, she thought, she had known her home and fallen in love with everyone here. He loved her, she thought. Otherwise, he wouldn't have borne the burden of that child, who had no blood relation to him, just so that she could live in this house in the future. He had been waiting, waiting for the day she would agree, but he didn't.

In that instant, tears fell like rain from her eyes as she looked at his image.

As she thought of the past, something seemed to be stuck in her throat. She grabbed the food that was about to turn cold with her plate and got up to leave the table.

Jane is a stubborn child and destined to be a poor one. She hardened her heart and allowed him to calm down.

When Tian Tian came back, it was already close to midnight. The hall was still lit up and Aunt Mei was dozing on the sofa.

She stuck out her tongue and went over to gently shake Tong Zi Mei awake. "Aunt Mei, I'm back."

"Oh." Tong Zimei rubbed her sleepy eyes. "Have you eaten?" I'll warm you up again. "

"No need. The entire company has worked overtime today to welcome the CEO who will be coming over tomorrow." Tian Tian curled his lips, "Our beautiful manager Tian left early in the morning, leaving so much work for us to work overtime — I'm guessing she must have gone to get her hair done."

"Oh, why?" Tong Zi Mei didn't urge Tian Tian to eat anymore, and asked while she cleaned up the dishes on the table.

"Don't you know? Tomorrow, the CEO of the headquarter will come to inspect the work — our CEO is the legendary suave and handsome son-in-law. Every year, who knows how many women will be forced to kneel under his trousers. " Tian Tian said looking forward to it.

"Hur hur." Tong Zimei felt like laughing as she saw Tian Tian's expression, "Alright, with such a person, it's the common folk's turn to imagine that. Rest for now."

Tian Tian straightened his neck, "That may not be so. Rumor has it that the CEO of the company has a fiancee, but he hasn't gotten married yet." What does that mean? "

"This means that no one else has a chance." Tong Zi Mei said as she cleaned up the dishes on the table and walked towards the kitchen.

"Wrong. On the contrary, as long as you're not married, everyone has a chance." Tian Tian's bold statement came from behind him.

Just as she put down the bowl, Tian Tian rushed into the kitchen, "Aunt Mei, how are you feeling at work today? How much work? Are you tired? "

"I'm not tired, everyone's fine …" "Go wash up and sleep."

By the time Tong Zi Mei had set up the kitchen utensils, Tian Tian had already come out from upstairs with Jane's room, frowning, "Aunt Mei, why does Jane seem so unhappy? Did the teacher criticize him again? "He's even convulsing in his sleep …"

Tong Zi Mei knew that Tian Tian was really good to Jane, so she did not hide it, "He misses father."

Tian Tian was startled, her expression turning gloomy. When she came back to her senses, she opened her mouth but did not say anything. Actually, what she wanted to say was, "I miss father too."

Both of them had their own thoughts as they went upstairs one after the other.

Deep into the night, Tong Zimei was sitting in front of Jane's bed. She didn't fall asleep until 4 in the morning, when she leaned against his bed and fell asleep.

Tian Tian slept very soundly, getting up very early in the morning. When he opened the door, he saw that Aunt Mei was already awake, busily preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Seeing that young figure bustling about in the kitchen, Tian Tian could not help but feel his nose turn sour. Although Aunt Mei was young and had the love of her father, she had never been pampered. She was always the first to get up and prepare breakfast for her family, even when she was sick.

For the past few years, he had been eating breakfast that she had prepared meticulously, and it had changed from the shape of a bean sprout to the appearance of a young girl.

It was just that his father didn't have the fortune to leave early. Otherwise, how blissful would the family be right now be?

She sniffed, trying to sound normal. "Morning, Aunt Mei."

After greeting her, she went into Jane's room and called her over.

After the family washed up and had breakfast, they sent Jane to school and took a taxi to the company.

Tong Zimei walked into the office with the clock on her head and was greeted by the smiling faces of all her male colleagues in the office.

Because the things she was responsible for were rather trifling and were mostly arranged by Liao Shawen, the other colleagues did not have the opportunity to get close to her.

The HR Department's efficiency was still very high. In the afternoon, Tian Tian called to inform Tong Zimei that they had hired two employees to replace the colleagues who had previously taken a long leave to return home. They wanted her to arrange for the distribution of office supplies for the two of them.

This was not a difficult task. Tong Zi Mei quickly arranged the seats for the two and put all the office supplies on everyone's table. The seats for the two newbies were arranged neatly.

Seeing Tong Zimei nimbly doing all of this, the administrative department's former colleague couldn't help but be a bit dumbfounded. This wasn't welcoming his new colleague, this was welcoming his family. When Tong Zimei left her prepared seat, she placed a delicate card on each table, "Welcome, the Administration Department is looking forward to your participation. Do your best!" In addition, there was a big smile on the back of the painting. Let alone the newbies, even the old people were extremely emotional after catching a glimpse of it. This was why they felt as if they were returning home.
