Chapter 439: Chapter 439

"What if someone else..."

Tang Xiaowan yelled without looking back, "Feel free to answer the phone, read any message."

"Feel free to answer?"

What a little rascal, passing the buck!

Li Zishen’s sly thoughts were seen through by Tang Xiaowan. Since I have no way of dealing with you, let’s have the husband take care of it then.

It was only when Leng Lingxiao came back to his senses and looked down at his phone that he realized the call had been disconnected, and it wasn’t necessary to answer anymore.

"Hmph, Li Zishen, you know your place."

But as soon as his words fell, the phone screen suddenly flashed, and the name Chen Ran appeared on it.

The phone rang repeatedly...

He was indeed guessed right by his little wife!

Leng Lingxiao hooked his lips slightly and answered the call.

"Boss, we’ve already received five wheelchair reservations, two from orthopedics, and three from rehabilitation centers."

Chen Ran immediately sensed something was off, and respectfully replied, "Hello, Chairman, this is Chen Ran, Hai Sheng Marketing Department Manager."

"Hmm, I know, anything else?"

"No, sorry to bother you."

"That’s it then, goodbye."

Considering he was a manager appointed by his little wife, Leng Lingxiao’s tone was quite gentle, without speaking harshly from beginning to end.

Then, just as he was quickly walking down the stone steps, the message notification suddenly rang.

The phone was beeping incessantly.

Instinct told Leng Lingxiao it must be from Li Zishen, so he frowned and opened it.

[Be careful of Wang Junchen, he is in Gold City.]

"So that was what you wanted to say."

"Too bad, this Chairman had already known since morning, otherwise why would I bring Tangtang to Mei Garden?"

The reason for choosing this place was partly because Qingcheng was close to Gold City, so if any emergency happened at the exchange meeting, the helicopter could reach quickly; also, Tang Xiaowan indeed wanted to stay in Mei Garden for a couple of days; and most importantly, Leng Lingxiao didn’t want Tang Xiaowan involved in Wang Junchen’s abyss of vengeance.

[With Huahua by my side, I’m not scared of him at all, you should take care of yourself first.]

Leng Lingxiao replied to Li Zishen’s message in Tang Xiaowan’s tone, his mood greatly lifted, and he proceeded straight towards the direction of the vegetable garden.

A few minutes later, Mei Garden chicken coop.

At this moment, Tang Xiaowan was squatting next to the chicken coop with a small basket in hand, mischievously watching the hens feed. She chuckled deviously and moved in quietly, gingerly searching.

"Oh? Here’s one, haha, so lucky." she murmured softly.

Tang Xiaowan excitedly retrieved a warm egg from the hay and placed it in the basket. Fluttering her big eyes, she continued searching, chuckling proudly with each find.

While she was joyfully hunting for eggs, a deep voice suddenly asked, "Tangtang, what are you doing?"

Tang Xiaowan jumped with fright and quickly turned around.

She was stunned, finding Leng Lingxiao standing not far away, watching her every move.

"How did it go, how many did you steal?"

"Oh my gosh, you scared me to death! Why didn’t you say something when you came over, so annoying!" Tang Xiaowan glared at him and continued feeling for eggs.

Leng Lingxiao approached a few steps closer, his eyebrows and eyes smiling.

"These few will be enough."

"Not enough, I need a lot."

Leng Lingxiao sighed softly, his eyes filled with indulgence and sympathy. "Poor child, can’t six eggs make two fried eggs?"

Tang Xiaowan suddenly felt embarrassed and lowered her head, her face as red as an apple. "Hard to say."

No sooner had she spoken did she suddenly feel something was amiss.

"Huahua, what... what do you mean by ’six can’t make two fried eggs’?"

Leng Lingxiao smiled and tenderly tousled her hair. "Silly girl, it’s okay to eat the ones that don’t look good as well."

"Mmm, I’ve known for a long time. Those misshapen poached eggs, you always hid in the kitchen... sneaking them to eat. It’s okay, as long as you make them, you silly thing!"

"Oh, alright then, just these ones."

Tang Xiaowan nodded, carrying a small basket with a naive smile, and took Leng Lingxiao’s hand as they left the chicken coop together.

On the way, they talked about Chen Ran and also about the phone call and message from Li Zishen.

"He still thinks I’m in Gold City?"

"Mmm, seems like it."

"What is Wang Junchen doing in Gold City?"

"Not sure, who cares." Leng Lingxiao pinched Tang Xiaowan’s nose and answered with a laugh.

Meanwhile, on the other side, in the Western Suburb of Gold City.

In the orphanage, Wang Junchen and Ye Wanhua were distributing gifts to the children with the director.

"Aunt Ye, Aunt Ye!" A six or seven-year-old girl ran over excitedly, holding Ye Wanhua’s hand tight.

"Good girl, you’ve grown taller." Ye Wanhua gently stroked the little girl’s hair and smiled tenderly.

"Look at this child, she has such a good memory!"

The director smiled and continued, then gestured for the other children to line up to receive their gifts.

The children excitedly opened the boxes, which contained a variety of gifts, from toys to stationery, as well as some candies and small accessories.

"Look at mine, this is my big train!"

"Wow, this is the best gift I’ve ever received!" A little girl hugged her teddy bear excitedly, tears of happiness twinkling in her eyes.

"I have a gift too, look how beautiful her eyes are, and her hair, and her small skirt."

After the distribution, Wang Junchen accompanied Ye Wanhua to the disabled children, inquiring about their lives and preferences with concern.

Soon enough, the know-it-all Wang Junchen was surrounded by a group of little boys who bombarded him with all sorts of curious questions, their eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge.

Ye Wanhua looked at the beaming smiles on the children’s faces and felt an immense sense of contentment.

Who says I’m childless?

These are all, all my children.

"Ah Hua, how many days will you stay this time?" The silver-haired director took two steps closer to Ye Wanhua and asked gently, his eyes filled with loving-kindness.

"I’m currently in Huang City, not going back for now."

With that, Ye Wanhua went to fetch a contract from the car and handed it to the director with a smile.

Seeing the contract, the director’s eyes moistened.

"Did those people... agree?"

"Mmm, Ah Jun said, in a few days they can start the construction, by around next September, the children should be able to move in and start learning, all the related facilities and teachers have already been contacted."

"In Gold City, where every inch of land is like gold, you must have put in a lot of effort and spent a lot of money; I thank you on behalf of the children."

"Director, you’re too kind, it was merely a lift of my hand, no trouble at all."

"The children are indebted to you and Mr. Wang over these years."

"Just keep the contract safe, Ah Jun said that it was a trivial matter, so there’s no need to make a fuss."

"Alright, then later..."

As the director was about to say more, suddenly a young woman came running over, her face unable to hide her excitement.

She was a rehabilitation teacher who had joined last year.

"Why are you running? What’s the matter?" The director furrowed his brows in surprise at the young woman.

"Director, Madam Lai is here!"

"Madam Lai?" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveIꜰire.net

"Yes, she’s here to make a donation."

Previously, Madam Lai had only d living supplies once a year; she’s changed her pattern this year!

The director gave a thoughtful nod with a faint smile, then looked at Ye Wanhua: "Ah Hua, I’ll go check out front, you and Mr. Wang take your time."

"Sure, you go ahead, we’ll be leaving soon." Ye Wanhua answered with a smile.
