Mr. Shen, your love-struck wife doesn't want you anymore!

Jiang Yu only stayed at the villa for one night, and returned to the apartment complex she rented the next day.

Perhaps because she felt guilty towards Shen Mo, Jiang Yu would ask Wei Zongming for permission to leave work early to pick up Shen Mo from school when she had free time.

Fortunately, Wei Zongming didn't mind her leaving early.

Jiang Yu was actually considering resigning.

After her trip to the capital and her close encounter with those shameless members of the Song family, she no longer wanted to do this job.

Because as long as you work for Wei Zongming, you will inevitably have some interaction with Deng Wen's company.

She always thought that as long as she didn't provoke those people, she could do her job peacefully.

But as it turns out, this is impossible; the only way to stay away from those people is to keep your distance from them.

She hadn't figured out how to tell Wei Zongming about resigning, but she'd been leaving early every day for the past few days, so he should be able to guess what was going on.

Jiang Yu sent a message to the nanny, saying that she was going to pick up Shen Mo and that the nanny didn't need to go to school.

Today, Jiang Yu rode an electric scooter. As soon as she appeared, the other parents all turned to look at her.

Jiang Yu sat on the electric scooter, playing on her phone while waiting for Shen Mo to come out.

He even casually snapped a picture of the electric scooter handlebars and sent it to Shen Chengyan: "Did I embarrass you by coming to pick up your son on an electric scooter?"

Shen Chengyan: "?"

Jiang Yu: "All the other parents drive luxury cars, and the nannies who connect with the children also drive luxury cars, but I only drive an electric scooter."

Shen Chengyan: "I'll go to the 4S store to order a car tomorrow."

Jiang Yu: "...I was just venting casually, it's not like I want to buy a car. Besides, it's not like I don't have a car. Driving here is too troublesome, the traffic is terrible. Riding an electric bike is super fast. I'll use the electric bike to pick him up from school in the future, it will save a lot of time."

Shen Chengyan sent a thumbs-up emoji.

Jiang Yu replied, "I'm not going to say anything more, your son is out."

She put away her phone and honked the horn twice.

Shen Mo ran over with wide eyes: "What is this?"

"This is for you." Jiang Yu gestured with her chin. "Get in the car."

Shen Mo circled the electric scooter curiously, asking, "Can people sit on this?"

He's truly an ethereal young master, untouched by worldly concerns.

Jiang Yu said, "Of course you can, give it a try."

Shen Mo carefully sat down.

Jiang Yu twisted the handlebars, and the car shot forward. Shen Mo cried out and grabbed her waist.

Jiang Yu revealed a triumphant smile.

Shen Mo paused for two seconds, then burst into laughter: "That was fun, let's do it again."

Jiang Yu: "Hold on tight, don't blame me if you fall."

"Hold me tight, hold me tight."

We played like this several times until we reached the next traffic light.

Shen Mo sat in the back, looking around curiously, finding everything new and interesting.

The road is poorly planned; there's no designated route for electric bikes, and they're taking up the right-turn lane. And yet, she's at the very back of the line.

The car coming from behind was probably trying to turn right, but after realizing the lane was blocked, it started honking its horn like crazy.

Jiang Yu held back.

Shen Mo couldn't take it anymore. He turned around, pointed at the car honking, and arrogantly cursed, "Try honking at my mom again? Believe me or not, I can sit on you and kill you."

Jiang Yu heard everything clearly from the front and burst out laughing.

Even after the red light changed, Shen Mo didn't lower his chubby little hand, which was pointing at the car behind him.

He kept staring intently at the driver until the driver turned right and drove away, then he let out a snort.

Jiang Yu used to give this chubby boy a cold shoulder because Shen Mo disliked her.

After spending these days alone together, Shen Mo's attitude towards her changed drastically.

I used to be awkward around her, and I didn't even like to call her "Mom".

After eating and sleeping together for two weeks, Shen Mo started calling "Mommy, Mommy" non-stop every day. Even at night, he went from not wanting to be next to her at first, to now insisting on burying his bottom in her arms before he would fall asleep.

Jiang Yu recalled the first time she went to the square with him, when he was bullied by other children and ran around in fear.

And now, he's not afraid to argue with an adult; he'll stand up for her and defend her without hesitation.

Jiang Yu suddenly felt a burning sensation in her eyes.

It's probably because the wind was too strong when riding an electric bike.

**

The next day, when Jiang Yu left early again to pick up Shen Mo, Wei Zongming stopped her.

So Jiang Yu sent a message to the nanny: "I'm not free to pick up the child today, can you and the driver pick him up instead?"

Wei Zongming didn't go straight to the point, but tentatively asked, "Has your nanny taken leave recently?"

Jiang Yu sat opposite him and said directly, "President Wei, I want to resign next month."

"May I ask why?"

"It's not that your place isn't good enough, it's that I don't want to have any more contact with Deng Wen."

Even if Jiang Yu didn't explicitly say what happened at the last banquet in the capital, Wei Zongming could roughly guess some of the things that occurred.

Jiang Yu didn't want any contact with the Song family, which he understood: "How about you only handle the business in Jiangcheng from now on, and I'll handle all the business trips to Beijing by myself?"

Jiang Yu laughed: "President Wei, my resignation might be beneficial to you. I'm afraid the Song family might become desperate and target you as well."

Wei Zongming said, "I've been around for so many years, I'm not someone who would be bullied. You don't need to worry about me."

No matter how Wei Zongming tried to persuade her to stay, Jiang Yu was determined to leave.

He could only say regretfully, "Okay, if you want to come back to work in the future, just give me a call."

Jiang Yu nodded and agreed.

Since she didn't need to pick up Shen Mo today, she decided to go back to work; there were still some documents on her computer that she hadn't finished organizing.

While Jiang Yu was processing the call, her phone rang. It was the nanny calling.

Jiang Yu thought Shen Mo was throwing a tantrum because she hadn't picked him up. When she answered the phone, the nanny's panicked voice came through: "Something terrible has happened, Shen Mo is missing."

Jiang Yu paused for a second before uttering, "What?"

The nanny repeated, "On the way, Momo said he needed to use the restroom and couldn't hold it in any longer. The driver and I drove him to a nearby shopping mall. The driver went in with him, but after he turned around and washed his hands, he disappeared."

Jiang Yu suddenly stood up, and because he got up so quickly, he felt dizzy.

She steadied herself on the desk and asked, "Did you call the police?"

The nanny slapped her forehead: "I was too anxious. I didn't call the police yet. I was thinking of notifying you as soon as possible."

Jiang Yu steadied herself and walked outside: "Hang up the phone right now, send me the location after you hang up, then call the police and contact the mall staff for help. I'll be there right away."

"well."

After the nanny hung up the phone, Jiang Yu dialed Shen Chengyan's cell phone.

As soon as the call connected, Jiang Yu said, "The nanny called to say that Shen Mo is missing."

Jiang Yu heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, followed by the sound of someone striding out.

Jiang Yu seemed to be comforting him, and also comforting herself: "It's okay, we'll definitely find him. He probably just ran off somewhere to play."

Shen Chengyan's voice was even calmer and more decisive than hers: "I know, don't worry. I've already taken the elevator to the underground parking lot. Did the nanny send you the address? If she did, forward the address to me and I'll be there right now."

Jiang Yu was in a state of confusion: "I've sent you the address, I'll give it to you now."

Shen Chengyan suddenly laughed and said in a deliberately relaxed tone, "Wife, don't worry, just wait for my news. Don't drive over by yourself. I'm really afraid you'll panic and do something wrong with your driving skills."
