Chapter 537: But Brother Gave Me Way Too Much
"Boss, here’s the duty schedule you asked for."
"Hmm, okay, thanks."
Taking the freshly printed schedule, still exuding the smell of ink and warmth, Mo Jingchun smiled and nodded.
He glanced at the duty schedule; every day during the National Day holiday, there are three executives on duty.
Mo Jingchun wasn’t surprised by this at all.
Although Candy Technology is still a very young high-tech company, apart from the Spring Festival, having three executives on duty every day during holidays is an old tradition.
Don’t start with the ’no one wants to do it’ excuse.
If no one wants to do it, there’s only one possibility, which is that the money isn’t sufficient.
As long as the money is sufficient, all problems will cease to be problems.
"Hmm? Is Su Wenyan not going back for the National Day?"
"Well, this guy, apart from the New Year and business trips, just stays at the company and goes nowhere."
Seeing Su Wenyan’s name on the duty list every day during the National Day holiday, Mo Jingchun simply set the schedule aside.
With Su Wenyan there, there’s nothing to worry about.
If there’s anything, just find Su Wenyan.
After a busy month, with rare leisure, Mo Jingchun told Zero not to call him unless necessary during his midday nap.
This time, Mo Jingchun ended up sleeping until clock-out time.
Candy, who received the teacher’s response in the morning, eagerly rode her bike home right after school.
Unfortunately...
When she rushed home to tell her brother the good news, she couldn’t find him.
After asking Zero, she found out her brother was actually napping in the bedroom!
How could he nap?
And in bed?
Hmph~ Guoguo didn’t nap.
Dropping her backpack, Candy stomped angrily into the bedroom.
As she pushed the door open, she saw her brother crawling out of the covers.
Rubbing his drowsy eyes, Mo Jingchun lazily said:
"You’re back."
"Hmph, exactly, without even checking the time."
"Brother, you’re making Guoguo very worried."
"Next year, when Guoguo starts elementary school and needs to be picked up after school, won’t you be late all the time?"
Flicking off an unidentified object, Mo Jingchun casually sent it flying somewhere.
Glancing at his fuming little sister, wasn’t she just jealous that he could sleep in.
"What are you worried about? The elementary school isn’t that far."
"It’s just about a kilometer away; it won’t take long to ride a bike."
Not saying anything was fine, but as Mo Jingchun spoke, Candy got even angrier.
Her puffed-up cheeks were like balloons, seemingly ready to burst at any moment.
"Alright, alright, I’m just joking."
"As long as I have time, I’ll pick you up. If I don’t, I’ll send your sister."
Reaching out and pinching her puffed-up cheeks, the little one quickly deflated.
"Hmph~ that’s more like it."
"Help your brother grab the jacket from the chair."
The little one glanced at her brother.
"Just wait."
She turned and left the bedroom, bringing back the jacket from the office chair.
"Guoguo is awesome!"
The little one lifted her chin, clearly not convinced by praise at such a time.
She’s not a three-year-old to be easily tricked.
Seeing this, Mo Jingchun smiled slightly, unhurriedly taking a coin from the nightstand.
"Here, this is for you."
The little one glanced at it; her eyes lit up — it’s money.
But she held back.
Hmm?
Not swayed?
Hehe~ Do I have to use the big guns?
Mo Jingchun fumbled in the nightstand again, then another coin appeared.
With a big smile, Mo Jingchun handed the two coins to Candy, who accepted them with glee.
With this, she could ride the rocking car twice.
Carefully putting the coins in her pocket, Candy patted her little chest proudly and said with a smile:
"Brother, next time there’s an easy task, remember to call Guoguo, don’t hesitate!"
No choice, Candy wanted to refuse.
But her brother gave so much.
With work like this, Candy thought she could earn a hundred a day!
No! Double it! Two hundred!
With the money already in her pocket, she thought about getting her brother to take off his jacket whenever possible.
That way, her pocket would have a chance to be full.
Watching his handsome reflection in the mirror, Mo Jingchun smiled with satisfaction.
"Guoguo, call your sister; we’re going home."
Outside the bathroom, worried about dropping her windfall, Candy would frequently check her pocket.
Hearing her brother’s question, Candy rolled her eyes at him and said somewhat helplessly:
"Brother, it’s so late; I’ve already left school and come home."
"Sister was already here waiting before I came back."
"Now she’s drinking the tea from your shelf."
"What? I only have half a catty of that tea!"
Mo Jingchun cursed as he hurried out of the bathroom.
He knew he shouldn’t have left the tea Qin Yuzhu gifted him there.
Letting Zhou Yaling have a go at such good tea.
Striding out, Mo Jingchun heartbrokenly put the tea away.
Drinking tea, Zhou Yaling grinned, "Brother, your tea doesn’t even taste good, it’s so bitter."
Mo Jingchun glared at Zhou Yaling, feeling a pang for his tea.
When Qin Yuzhu handed him the tea that day, she said it was a special tribute tea.
It came from above, just like the special tribute cigarettes, with limited production.
"What do you know? If it’s bitter, it means you don’t know how to brew tea."
Not far away, Xia Xiaomin glanced over, meeting the guilty look of her boss.
Feigning ignorance, Xia Xiaomin turned away, a slight smile on her lips.
It’s hilarious; the boss can’t brew tea either.
In the morning, he was complaining about the tea being bitter while brewing it himself.
Still, despite this, the boss drank all the tea he brewed.
Under Zhou Yaling’s disdainful gaze, Mo Jingchun locked the tea in his desk drawer.
"Let’s go, time to head home."
As he left, Mo Jingchun reminded Xu Pengfei to set off with him tomorrow morning.
Unlike Mo Jingchun, Xu Pengfei, although with three slots, said he’d only bring his wife.
Understanding Xu Pengfei’s considerations might involve both sides’ parents, Mo Jingchun could only guess.
Mo Jingchun thought they could take both fathers or mothers.
In such a splendid event, with a chance like this, how could one not see it?
However, this was personal business, and Mo Jingchun never got involved.
No one knew if Xu Pengfei had other reasons.
Just like him, he originally wanted to take his grandpa to Jing City for the military parade.
But reality just doesn’t allow it.
At night, knowing they’d have a long car ride tomorrow, both Zhou Yaling and Candy went upstairs earlier than him, surprising Mo Jingchun.
In the deep night, in a hangar at a military airport outside Jing City.
A large group of researchers in white coats surrounded a unique aircraft.
The elegant curves of the aircraft were captivating at first sight.
PS: My cousin is having a parent-teacher meeting today, so I was called last minute to babysit.
