Chapter 299 The Chosen Father
Chapter 299 The Chosen Father
After drinking a cup of coffee, Wang Manning said goodbye to Lin Cheng and walked back to the campus.
She paced slowly, her hands in her windbreaker pockets, gently touching a business card inside.
Chengzhen Advertising Consulting Company.
She had heard that a rising star in Beijing in recent years was headed by a returnee who had worked at McKinsey Consulting in the United States.
I didn’t expect to see the real person today.
We can really consider cooperation later, and make the entrepreneurial base bigger and stronger after it is built.
......
The lights are just coming on and the campus is brightly lit; it is a busy time.
Wang Manning got to the door and was about to reach out to open it when she was startled by a figure rushing towards her.
"Principal Wang, Brother Lin Cheng is Xiaona's favorite uncle. He is the father Xiaona chose herself. Please keep a distance from him in the future."
Wang Manning turned around and looked at the butterfly in front of her with amusement.
"Mother Yang Xiaona, you worry too much. Mr. Lin and I are just doing business. Your business has nothing to do with me. Don't say such things in front of me in the future. It's very rude."
After saying that, he opened the door and walked in, locking the butterfly outside.
Then he pushed open the empty classroom next to him and called the number that he had just added to his address book.
"Hello, Principal Wang, what can I do for you?" Lin Cheng's cheerful voice came from the microphone.
"Boss Lin, I just met Yang Xiaona's mother again. She said that you are the father Yang Xiaona chose herself, and asked me to keep a distance from you."
"I still have to trouble you to deal with this person. This kind of harassment is too much. Or, can you consider changing her to another studio? There are still many good studios. I can recommend them to you."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and Lin Cheng's voice sounded a little gritted.
"This Li Yunfang is really sick. She is hallucinating. Principal Wang, I'm sorry. I will definitely handle it. I will find time to apologize to you."
Wang Manning rolled her eyes to the sky: "Come on, this is the second time you've asked for apology today. There's no better apology than this."
Whether it's a student's parent or a business upstart, she speaks her mind.
For such people, being overly cautious and cautious will not solve the problem.
On the busy road, Lin Cheng put down his phone with a stern expression.
He found a roadside parking spot, thought for a while with a frown, took out his cell phone and made a call.
"Hey, Lao Chen, I'm hosting you this weekend. Let's get Li Yunfang and Xiaona together. I've run into this problem. Can you and sister-in-law give me some advice..."
......
On Saturday afternoon, Li Yunfang brought Yang Xiaona to Youzhi Art Studio for class.
Li Yunfang changed her appearance and completely changed her dressing style.
She wore an intellectual khaki trench coat, her hair was curled into big waves, and her original high heels were replaced with elegant small high heels.
Director Liu quietly complained to Principal Kang:
"Yang Xiaona's mother has changed a lot. Does this outfit look familiar to you? I almost mistook her for Principal Wang from behind just now."
Principal Kang looked at it twice more in confusion.
"Yes, it's true. It seems that even the windbreakers are the same style."
Li Yunfang sent Yang Xiaona to the classroom door and tidied her hair.
The twelve-year-old girl was already taller than her shoulders.
"Nana, draw well and show your work to Father Lin. He will definitely like it."
Yang Xiaona raised her eyes doubtfully, but with hope: "Mom, is it really possible? Can Father Lin really be my father?"
"As long as you behave well, you can do it."
Yang Xiaona pursed her lips and walked into the classroom.
After leaving the school, Li Yunfang found a public telephone booth and made a call.
"Hey, Brother Lin Cheng, Xiaona's class is over at 4:30, can you come pick us up? Let's go to the restaurant together, it's quite a long way."
Lin Cheng's voice on the other end of the phone was very cold: "Sister-in-law, you guys can go by car. I'm busy. I'm hanging up."
Listening to the beeping sound on the phone, Li Yunfang bit her lip and hung up.
She looked up at the figure reflected in the window, touched her long hair, turned around and left with high morale.
Whether there is a result or not, just give it a try. You won’t lose anything anyway.
My cousin is right. Old Yang and his classmates are all elites in society. If you can catch one of them, you will have a life of luxury.
Compared with these people, those introduced by others are simply not worth looking at.
......
In the private room of the restaurant, Lao Chen's wife and Lao Miao's wife were chatting and eating ice cream with their six or seven-year-old son and Yang Xiaona.
When Lao Yang just graduated, he was married to Li Yunfang, a young clerk in the unit, and they got married with a child. He has the eldest child among their group.
Old Chen's wife caught Old Chen's eye, got up and took the children out to order drinks.
The room quickly became quiet, and Lin Cheng looked at Li Yunfang and spoke in a cold voice.
"Sister-in-law, I must make it clear to you today. Don't talk nonsense in Xiaona's name outside in the future."
"Principal Wang and I are business partners. What you said on Thursday will ruin a very important business for me."
Lao Miao's wife asked knowingly: "Lin Cheng, why are you so serious? What did your sister-in-law say?"
Lin Cheng glanced at Li Yunfang, frowning: "She said I was the father Xiaona chose herself."
The old Miao wife screamed:
"Oh sister-in-law, you can't make such a joke. Lin Cheng hasn't gotten married yet. If Lin Cheng's girlfriend finds out about this kind of joke, how will you get along with each other in the future?"
Li Yunfang blushed and stammered.
"I...I just accidentally said a joke Xiaona made. I will be more careful next time."
The door of the room opened and three children came in with drinks.
Old Chen's wife glanced around and fixed her eyes on Lin Cheng.
"Lin Cheng, have you found a girlfriend yet? You are the only bachelor among us. You have delayed the children's life."
Lin Cheng sighed: "I'm chasing you now. When I catch up with you, I'll treat you to a celebratory drink."
"Why are you still sighing? Our President Lin, is it hard for him to pursue someone? This girl must have very good conditions." Old Chen joked.
"Ah, her conditions are indeed very good. Education, career, family, looks, everything is good. Do you think it's hard for me to pursue her?"
Lao Miao made a sound of clicking his tongue:
"Oh my, I finally heard Lin Cheng admit defeat. But only a girl with this condition can be appreciated by Lin Cheng. You, boy, would rather be alone than be with someone who doesn't meet the right person."
Everyone was talking and making jokes about Lin Cheng, and Old Chen's wife's eyes swept across the faces of Li Yunfang and Yang Xiaona.
Li Yunfang silently lowered her head and drank her tea, hiding the embarrassment on her face well enough.
Yang Xiaona was a child after all, her face turned purple and blue, and she was about to cry.
This year, my mother has been saying that Uncle Lin will become my father, and she has changed his name to Dad Lin at home.
It is said that Dad Lin is just doing his job as a father by enrolling her in tutoring classes with such care.
But what's going on now? Why would Dad Lin pursue someone else?
In fact, two years ago, her mother asked her to call them Dad Chen and Dad Miao, but she was seriously corrected by her uncle and aunt.
Now, Father Lin is also in trouble.
"Hey, Xiaona, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy? Have you encountered any difficulties?"
Yang Xiaona looked up at Li Yunfang, and was frightened by the fierceness in Li Yunfang's eyes, so that her tears were swallowed back. She quickly shook her head.
"Auntie, I'm fine. I just thought of my dad when I saw the uncles."
