Chapter 147: Shameless

"I hope that when she grows up, she will be like a swan: noble and elegant."

When she heard that, she smiled slightly.

"Don't compare her to the heavens. I hope that she will be grounded and down-to-earth, and not ascend to the heavens all at once!"

Ouyang Que followed up with a smile, "The little princess will be heavenly. In the future, not only will she be graceful, but she will also become the most beautiful girl in the world."

Su Mianmian smiled weakly.

She called for Madam Wu and asked her to carry Yimo over.

Madam Wu looked at Ouyang Que and smiled as she went to carry Yimo over.

"Who is this servant?"

"She's from Lu Xiangdong's villa, not Lu Wenzhong's."

He told her to be careful. After all, she was a servant and could be easily bribed.

She didn't think that Madam Wu would go that far.

"Young Madam, I've brought her here for you. She just woke up." Madam Wu smiled as she handed the child to her. She looked at her daughter's sleepy red face.

Ouyang Que leaned over and extended his hand to her. "I want to hug my princess."

Su Mianmian let him hug her. He picked up the necklace in the box and waved it in front of Lu Yimo's eyes. "Yimo, look what I brought for you."

Su Mianmian lay on her side and watched the interaction between him and her daughter with a gentle gaze.

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, it turned from late autumn to winter. Su Mianmian stayed in the hospital for nearly two months before she was discharged.

The day she was discharged, Ouyang Que drove over to pick her and her daughter up.

In the last two months, her daughter had grown a lot. Her hair was longer now.

Ouyang Que joked that when Yimo was two years old, he would give her a hairpin and dress her up like a princess.

Su Mianmian was not sure how to reply to him. She just felt happy that there was someone else to help take care of Yimo.

However, happy times always passed so quickly. A few days after Su Mianmian was discharged from the hospital, Lu Wenzhong suddenly had a heart attack and was sent to the emergency room.

Su Mianmian wrapped a scarf around her daughter as she walked out of the villa.

She did not want her daughter's face to go red from the cold.

Lu Wenzhong's subordinates had been waiting for her at the hospital entrance. When they saw her get out of the car, they took the initiative to help her carry Yimo, but she refused. She was worried about Lu Wenzhong's condition.

"How's the chairman?"

"He had a heart attack and is in some danger."

"You knew that he was susceptible to heart attacks, you should have taken better care of him!" Su Mianmian could not help but scold.

The subordinate quickly lowered his head. "You're right, but the chairman is also worried about Lu Xiangdong."

Su Mianmian suddenly stopped and asked, "Is there any news about your young master?''

He shook his head. "No."

Su Mianmian lowered her eyes and said to him, "Let's go and see your chairman."

When she was about to reach the ward, she handed her daughter over. Then, she pushed open the door of the ward and walked in.

Lu Wenzhong had dodged the jaws of death. He was lucky to be alive. He looked at Su Mianmian and stubbed out the cigarette in his hand.

Su Mianmian looked at him and said, "Chairman, you should smoke less. It's better for your health."

"How is Yimo recently? Why isn't she here?" He did not look at her.

She sighed helplessly. "Your subordinate is watching her. It's better not to bring her in."

"Okay, you can go. I'm fine. Come to the villa for a meal when you have time in the future. I've been thinking about the princess of the Lu family a lot."

Su Mianmian curled her lips and thought to herself, 'He only cared about Yimo when he was about to die?'

She smiled and said, "Chairman, you should rest. When you've recovered, you can see Yimo anytime you want."

"Okay, you can go now." Lu Wenzhong nodded.

Su Mianmian had only come to check on him and now that she knew he was fine, there was no need for her to stay in the hospital. After all, there were countless people taking care of him. She was not needed here.

She closed the door of the ward and turned around. She saw her subordinate carrying her daughter. She walked over, carried Yimo back, and thanked him.

After leaving the hospital, Su Mianmian put her daughter back in the car. She then turned on the heater in the car, took off her scarf, and wrapped it around her daughter.

Her phone suddenly rang, and she looked to see that an unfamiliar number was calling. She wondered if the call was about the resume she had submitted earlier in the day, so she picked it up.

"Is this Miss Su Mianmian?" The voice sounded very polite.

Su Mianmian quickly replied, "Yes, that's me."

"Hello, I'm in charge of the Etel News Agency. I just saw your resume and wanted to invite you to the company for an interview tomorrow. Would that work for you?"

"Yes! What time?"

"Before 12 am."

"Okay." Su Mianmian smiled and hung up the phone.

She did not expect that someone would invite her for an interview so soon after sending out her resume. This was her first step to success.

She did not want to return to work at the NEPC International Airlines because she wanted to have more time to take care of her daughter. If she chose to keep flying, she would have to leave early and return late.

After putting on some light makeup, she asked if Madam Wu could take care of Yimo while she was away. She guessed she would probably be back in an hour or two.

Madam Wu agreed to help take care of Yimo.

When Su Mianmian got out of the car, she bumped into a few colleagues from the NEPC International Airlines. They had just gotten off a plane, and when they saw her in formal attire, they could not help but look at her in awe.

"Stewardess Su, it's really you! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me!" A stewardess dragged her bag towards her. Su Mianmian did not want to interact with the stewardesses, but she did not want to provoke them, either.

Su Mianmian did not want to deal with these people at all.

"Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. It's really me. Are you guys going back to the company to report?"

"That's right. I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you went home to give birth. Is that true?" The woman leaned towards her with a gossipy face.

Su Mianmian avoided her and sneered, "Besides giving birth, what else do you need to take a few months off?"

She did not deny that she had resigned because of her new baby. After all, she would no longer work for the NEPC International Airlines, so why would she be afraid of gossipy women like them?

The few women showed a look of surprise on their faces. "You were taken care of?"

Her expression changed. What did she mean by that?

"Who said that I was taken care of? Did you see that I was taken care of?" She glared at the group of women with a fierce look in her eyes.

...

They had never heard that flight attendant Su was married. Had her child been conceived after marriage?

The faces of the women were unshakeable.

Su Mianmian wanted to laugh. Why should she care about these people? She could live her own life and let others talk about it.

She walked past the group of women and walked forward. Behind her, the voices of a few women could be heard.

"I told you! How could Captain Lu like such a woman?"

"Yeah! I guess she felt that there wasn't much hope between her and Captain Lu, so she went to look for a rich man. Who knew that she would accidentally get pregnant with a child? How shameless!"

"He's really dirty. No wonder he quit his job. If it were me, I wouldn't have the face to stay in the company."

Su Mianmian's hands shook slightly. She raised her head and refused to listen to their filthy gossip. What they said wasn't true. They should follow their own path and ignore other people's business.

When the women saw that she had entered a newspaper company, they started to discuss whether she had relied on her connections to get a job there.

Su Mianmian couldn't help but admire their imagination.

After coming out of the elevator, she tidied up her clothes and walked towards the personnel department office.

She knocked twice before she heard someone from inside. "Come in."

She opened the door and walked inside.

"Su Mianmian, right? Please take a seat." The man shook his suit, stood up, and walked over to shake her hand.

He was a middle-aged man and not bad looking. He behaved in a gentlemanly manner.

"How should I address you?" Su Mianmian asked with a smile.

"You can call me manager Liu. I've read your resume and see that you used to work as an air stewardess. Although it has nothing to do with our industry, I'm interested by the fact that we graduated from the same school. You're my junior sister, so I have selfish motives. I want to give you a chance to work in Etel. What do you think?" The man looked at her with clear eyes. He clasped his hands on his knees, and smiled gently.

Su Mianmian was very grateful for his selfishness. Did this count as going out to meet an important person?

"Manager Liu, I cannot refuse your offer! I'm very grateful that you have given me such an important position. I will work hard and not let you down." She stood up and extended her hand towards him. Was this meaning obvious enough?

Liu Qi grabbed her hand and nodded. "You start tomorrow. No problem?"

"No problem." Su Mianmian smiled.

Etel was a successful business. Many big stars in the entertainment industry looked for this newspaper to publish their magazines.
