Marrying the Divorced Female Protagonist O After Transmigrating into a Book - Chapter 35
Walking into the study, Zhao Xinyu smiled at him and sat down in the chair. “Grandpa Sun, I’m not sure what the condition Sister mentioned is. But I guess it’s related to Auntie. Marrying into the Lin family again might not necessarily get you the benefits you want, you know~”
“Xinyu knows quite a lot?” It seems I underestimated this little girl.
“Sigh, well, I like Sister! So I did a little research. Grandpa Sun, if you agree to Sister’s condition, I will also speed up my pursuit of Sister and marry her. I think a marriage between the Sun family and the Zhao family will be much more profitable! And you won’t have to,” Zhao Xinyu smiled softly and continued, “and you won’t have to worry about the Lin family trying to take down my family. Honestly, the Sun family plus the Lin family together can’t topple mine.”
I heard Xinyu is a high-ranking Alpha, and she likes Qianyi. As for being able to topple the Zhao family, that’s absolutely true! Confronting the Zhao family is the Lin family’s idea. Our Sun family has never thought that way. “Xinyu has grown up. How can I believe what you say?”
“Well, how about I go outside and kiss Sister for you to see?”
“…”
“Hahaha, I’m just joking, Grandpa Sun. I’ve already taken Sister back to my house to live. I take her to and from work every day, under the guise of dance practice. Grandpa Sun, you can check this to confirm.”
He gave a slight “humph” and said, “I will check.”
“Okay, Grandpa Sun, three days! Grandpa Sun, please give Sister a reply in three days!”
“…Mhm.”
“Oh my~ I’ve already told you the secret, so I’ll be leaving now. Goodbye, Grandpa Sun.”
“…” She’s truly Zhao Haizhou’s daughter. Xinyu’s words cannot be entirely dismissed, but the Lin family’s words cannot be fully trusted either. I need to confirm this first, and then we’ll see.
Walking out of the study, she said to Qianyi in a calm tone, “Sister, let’s go.”
It seems Little Xin didn’t manage to convince Grandpa. “Okay.”
Holding Sun Qianyi’s hand, they left the Sun house and drove home. On the way, Sun Qianyi fell asleep. Zhao Xinyu slowly adjusted the car seat and table, letting her rest well.
As they were about to arrive home, she woke up dazed, and her lazy voice asked, “Are we there yet?”
“Almost.”
“Good~”
When they arrived home, Zhao Xuan was sitting in the living room, chatting with Zhao Haizhou and Ming Wenxin. Seeing the situation, Zhao Xinyu asked, and they had already eaten. She held Sun Qianyi’s hand and went to eat dinner.
She would go to Zhao Xuan’s room later to ask about Zhao Yanran.
Shoveling rice into her mouth, she picked up a shrimp for Sun Qianyi: “Eat more.”
“Mhm, Little Xin, you too.”
After eating, Zhao Xinyu and Sun Qianyi sat in the living room for a while, chatting with Ming Wenxin, Zhao Haizhou, and Zhao Xuan. Sun Qianyi must have been very tired after the long day. She whispered in Zhao Xinyu’s ear, “I’ll go back to the room to rest first.” The warm breath, fragrant, filled her ear. She nodded in agreement.
Standing up, Zhao Xinyu held her hand and led her back to the room. She seemed listless and lacked energy; she couldn’t even walk up the stairs properly. She put her arm around Sun Qianyi’s waist, guiding her up to the second floor. “The dance performance is this Friday. Don’t push yourself too hard.”
“Mhm, I know my body.”
Zhao Xinyu didn’t say anything else, leading Sun Qianyi into the bedroom. Closing the door, she said, “You were asleep on the way back. Grandpa Sun will give you an answer within three days.”
Sun Qianyi hadn’t expected Little Xin to be able to persuade her grandfather to give her a reply within three days. She turned and said, “Okay, thank you, Little Xin.”
“You don’t need to thank me. I’m your wife. You can’t keep treating me like a sister.”
“Okay, I know.”
“Mhm. You go take a shower first. I’ll work for a bit.”
“I showered at the studio.”
“Okay, then just rest.”
“Little Xin~”
“Mhm?” Something else? Zhao Xinyu looked at her, confused.
Mmm~
…A few minutes later~ Sun Qianyi’s back felt like something was hurting it.
“Little Xin~ My back hurts.”
Seeing her leaning on the doorknob, Zhao Xinyu quickly pulled her into her arms and apologized: “I didn’t notice. I’m sorry.”
Sun Qianyi stroked her flushed cheek and said gently, “It’s alright.”
Zhao Xinyu carried her to the chair and sat her down, stroking her soft hair, leaning closer, and kissing her lips.
Seeing the person in her arms looking tired, she let her rest against her. Opening her laptop, Zhao Xinyu began researching futures trading. She stared at the computer screen, twirling a pen in her hand.
About half an hour later, a certain product suddenly hit an ultra-low point. Zhao Xinyu didn’t hesitate and immediately bought a million dollars worth. Barring any accidents, she should quadruple or quintuple her investment when she sells it tomorrow.
Putting down the pen, looking at the person already asleep in her arms, Zhao Xinyu smiled silently, carefully placing Sun Qianyi on the bed to rest well.
Tearing off her barrier patch, Zhao Xinyu released some pheromones, left the room, and went to find Zhao Xuan.
Knocking twice, the door opened from the inside. Zhao Xuan looked at her and said, “Come in.”
Zhao Xinyu walked in, found a chair, and sat down. “Brother, tell me about Auntie’s situation.”
He is a few years younger than their aunt. Knowing about their aunt is not a coincidence. Before Little Xin asked, he had already asked his aunt what to do if Little Xin asked, and she said to tell her directly. “Auntie is seeing a doctor in City S. The last time Auntie got drunk, she was probably visiting her grave and feeling quite melancholic.”
“What kind of illness does Auntie have?”
“Psychological. She’s much better now. Her condition has relapsed repeatedly over the years, only slowly improving in the last two years. I’m still trying to find out what caused her improvement, but I haven’t found anything yet. I think Auntie doesn’t want me to know.”
“Mhm. So Auntie has been seeing a doctor all this time. Since it’s likely Auntie doesn’t want us to know, let’s stop investigating.” I suspect it might be related to the girl Zhao Yanran went to the movies with. However, I can’t be certain that it’s that girl.
“Mhm, mhm. I haven’t checked for about a year. I called Auntie, and she said this is the last treatment. But I’m worried that she won’t be able to hold on for long and will need to see a doctor again.” She’s heard “last treatment” at least three times over the years.
“We have to have faith in Auntie. She can definitely do it. This time, I’m also here to support her.”
“Mhm, mhm. Auntie loves you the most. Maybe Auntie will pull through this time.”
“Yes!”
“Auntie will be back the day after tomorrow. She didn’t specify the time. Auntie will be going to see Qianyi’s performance on Friday.”
“Mhm, I know that. Auntie told me.”
…
After chatting with Zhao Xuan for a while, she returned to the room. Sun Qianyi was sleeping soundly. She found clothes and went to the bathroom to wash up and shower. She lay down on the bed, embracing Sun Qianyi to rest.
A pure night, tsk.
The next morning, Sun Qianyi blocked her in the bathroom, and after a long time, the two finally emerged…
“Wife~ Do you want to have a baby?”
“Ah, um, I haven’t thought about it yet.”
“…”
“Little Xin, mmm~ I will, ah, think about it seriously.” She hadn’t thought about having a baby yet. Her intimacy with Little Xin must have made Little Xin think about having a baby. The artists at the studio haven’t grown enough yet. She can’t rest now. She’ll consider the baby later.
“Okay~”
…
After dropping Sun Qianyi off at the studio, she went to the company. Just as she was speaking to Zhang Yue, she saw Lin Fanchen walk out of Zhao Xuan’s office with a pale face, hurrying away.
Tsk, what’s going on? Have the good brothers of many years finally broken up?
She put down Zhang Yue’s pen, walked to Zhao Xuan’s office door, and knocked. She heard Zhao Xuan’s stern voice: “Who is it! Come in!”
She tutted softly and walked in with a smile, asking, “What’s wrong, Brother? What happened?”
“Nothing. The office floor is almost ready. We can let the editors and secretaries move over first.”
“Okay, Brother. Are you really alright?”
“I’m fine.”
“Alright then. I’ll go get busy.”
“Go ahead.”
Zhao Xinyu didn’t linger. She left Zhao Xuan’s office to join Zhang Yue and Qin Langning to work on her own matters. The editors had already started editing. The trailer should be ready in a few days.
The office was ready. Zhao Xinyu went to the office to work first. On her phone, she kept watching the trading market. The move to the 9th floor was coordinated by Qin Langning and Zhang Yue. Seeing that the product was ready to be sold, she quickly opened the office computer, logged into her account and password. After checking the product, she clicked Sell All.
As Zhao Xinyu predicted, the product more than quadrupled in value. Deducting the fees, she made a net profit of over 3 million dollars. The funds needed processing in the backend and would be in her account tomorrow.
[Investment requires caution. Do not blindly purchase based on this text!]
Many more people came to work today. She instructed Qin Langning to create a work group chat for everyone.
Seeing Qin Langning add her to the group, she posted a message: I’m treating everyone to dinner at Guanglin tonight.
Time seemed to stand still for one second, two seconds, three seconds. The group chat instantly exploded!
“Thank you, Ms. Zhao! Dinner is sorted tonight!”
“Oh wow~ First day of work, and you’re treating us, Ms. Zhao! Ms. Zhao is the GOAT!”
“Ms. Zhao is brilliant!”
“Ms. Zhao is powerful!”
…
Tsk, it looks like everyone loves a free meal! I should find a project to properly challenge them.
Closer to noon, Zhao Xinyu asked Qin Langning to come to her office.
After about three or four minutes, Qin Langning arrived at the office. Zhao Xinyu looked at her and asked, “Has everyone been settled?”
“Yes, Ms. Zhao.”
“Good. This afternoon after work, call a taxi to take everyone to Guanglin. The manager there will be waiting outside for you. Um, how much money will you need for the taxis?”
“Ms. Zhao, maybe I should just submit the expense report to you later!”
“That works too. Don’t drink too much tonight. You live far away, and it’s not safe to go home too late.”
Qin Langning was stunned and replied, “Okay. Thank you, Ms. Zhao.”
“Mhm, go back to work.”
“Yes, Ms. Zhao.”
Watching Qin Langning leave, Zhao Xinyu called Zhao Xuan.
“Brother.”
“…What is it?”
“Remember to give Secretary Zhang a bonus this month. If you don’t, I’ll give her one separately.”
“I know. You could have just come upstairs to tell me. You’re too lazy.”
“Hehe, calling is so convenient. I don’t have to run over.”
“Fine, I know. Is there anything else you need help with?”
“Oh, right. Give the HR department a bonus too. That’s all.”
“Okay.”
At noon, Zhao Xinyu had Qin Langning bring her a meal from the cafeteria. In the afternoon, she took Qin Langning to interview agents. Not many people came to interview for the agent position today, only five or six. After some questioning, Zhao Xinyu didn’t feel any of them were suitable and told them to wait for notification.
It looks like I need to continue the interviews tomorrow to see if there’s anyone suitable. She cannot be careless with agent recruitment. This will affect the quality and work ability of the artists recruited in the future.
She had nothing else to do in the afternoon. Zhao Xinyu left the company early to pick up Sun Qianyi at the studio.
She needed to ask Cai Luo about Sun Qianyi’s performance costume.
