Chapter 42: Intentionally Suppressing Lin Miao
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gong Xin turned around to look at Gu Zi, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curl up.
Gong Xin really did not expect that Gu Zi would be willing to give up her job to her.
This was a joyous occasion.
Gong Xin’s perception of her dear friend and benefactor changed instantly. She said with warmth, “Gu Zi, let’s head home and retrieve your household register.
I’ll be able to give you the money then.”
Gu Zi subconsciously nodded. Then, as if she had thought of something, she said with a troubled expression, “I just remembered that my household register is still with the Gu family. My former parents gave this job to Lin Miao. What if they…”
She hesitated, wanting to express her concern but stopping herself.
Gong Xin’s face darkened when she heard that.
She Imew just how much the Gu family now favored Lin Miao, and she understood the extent of their adoration.
Gu Zi had worked hard to secure this job, yet the Gu family had handed it over to Lin Miao without a word to her.
Gong Xin despised individuals who exploited connections, especially those who were audacious about it.
Quickly, Gong Xin reassured her, “Don’t be sad. You earned this job through your dedication and effort. The Gu family’s decision has no bearing on that.”
Growing up together, Gong Xin knew that Gu Zi wouldn’t dare to defy the Gu couple. “Don’t worry. I’ll go with you this time. If Lin Miao tries to snatch my job, I won’t let her get away with it!”
Gu Zi looked at Gong Xin and simply said, “Thank you.”
Gong Xin was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Gu Zi to express gratitude. Momentarily flustered, she awkwardly pushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear. “I’m not doing this for you; I just don’t want my job stolen.”
A smile crossed Gu Zi’s lips. “I know.”
Gong Xin blushed as they left together.
Although Lele was still quite young, it was tiring for Gu Zi to carry her all the time.
Gong Xin, considerate as ever, flagged down a taxi.
This child seemed older, so why did she only say “Yiya Yiya”?
Gu Zi confirmed, “She hasn’t learned to speak yet, but I’ll teach her. She’ll be talking in no time.”
Gong Xin was left in awe. She admired Gu Zi’s determination. If she were in that situation, she might have run away long ago.
In less than ten minutes, the two arrived at the Gu family courtyard.
Gu Zi looked at the familiar entrance, aware that she wouldn’t be able to enter alone. However, with Gong Xin at her side, access was guaranteed.
They were here to retrieve Gu Zits household register.
As they approached the entrance, faint sounds of Lin Miao’s cries reached their ears. The Gu couple seemed to be consoling her with gentle words.
As soon as Lin Miao arrived home, she had evidently informed her family about Gu Zi stealing her job.
Gu Shan, looking at his biological daughter in tears, couldn’t hide his displeasure. “I didn’t expect her to be so ruthless.”
Zhang Mei nodded, agreeing, “We’ve always treated her well. She’s targeting Lin Miao now simply because she’s unhappy with us..”
