Chapter 281 I'm Going to Quit My Job

ious company. With your intelligence, Xiao Zhu, any company would want you. In the end, you still rely on men. You're lucky to have met him.”Zhu Xiaowei blushed, biting back her tears before saying, "...Achoo——

Qiao Bao'er didn't fall asleep until midnight last night, and her phone was buzzing with messages from the &am; staff before the sun had even risen. They reminded her to arrive at the airport on time today because she and three other models were going to Hong Kong for a shoot.

Qiao Bao'er froze, clutching her phone. She had truly put the matter out of her mind.

"Oh."

Her late-rising, dull attributes were on display as she simply hummed in response and went about brushing her teeth and washing up.

"Joe, are you feeling sick"

It's good of her, before she left, she remembered to call Zhu Xiaowei. Probably because her nose was a little congested, it ended up being Xiao Zhu who was concerned about her.

"I'm taking a car to the airport now, it seems like I'll be staying in Hong Kong for three days."

Qiao Bao'er sat in the taxi, complaining on the phone, "Lu Qinan that guy is afraid I'll get fired, so he even sent someone to wake me up before dawn."

Now she was still a little dazed, but thinking about it, the &am; staff didn't seem to belong to Lu Qinan's management, did &am; have a call bell service

She sneezed again, clutching a tissue to her nose. She decided not to bother about the room service anymore.

"Dead man Jo Ba'er, you said we would eat and drink to our hearts' content, did you know that Junzhi Mu didn't attend the banquet so you ran away too You heartless…" Zhu Xiaowei on the other end of the phone was full of resentment.

Did Junzhi Mu also not go to the banquet

She didn't like the sound of that name.

"Hey, what bad things did you do last night that you caught a cold Will it affect your shoot" Zhu Xiaowei was soft-hearted and worried about her.

"Last night, I sat on the balcony blowing in the cold wind all night…" Qiao Bao'er recalled her foolish actions last night, her voice getting lower, "I suspect that person upstairs who lives in unit 502 is someone I know."

"What 502"

"It's nothing," Qiao Baoer said, her expression complex. She didn't want to talk about it.

"By the way, Tang Yu told me that you were with Pei Haoran last night. Did he send you home"

Now it was Zhu Xiaowei's turn who didn't want to talk, her tone a little stiff. "Yes, we went back early."

Both women had their own thoughts. Qiao Bao'er said she was about to reach the airport, and Xiao Zhu, acting as a housekeeper, reminded her to be careful outside before hanging up.

Normally, Zhu Xiaowei arrives at the Pei family's house promptly at 6 am. She then acts as a laborer, making breakfast for the two Pei men and waking them up. After sending the younger one to school, she rushes back to supervise the older one taking his medicine after meals, wiping the floor, washing dishes, and preparing dinner for them. Life is like this, ordinary and simple.

But when Zhu Xiaowei arrived at Pei's house in her little Chery today, she discovered a red Lamborghini women's sports car parked at the gate. Parking these two cars together really showed there was no comparison to be made.

Zhu Xiaowei got out of the car and glanced at the new sports car beside her, feeling very envious.

She was thinking to herself, who would drive a car like this

Before even stepping into the hall, she noticed that Pei Haoran and his son had actually gotten up today without her having to yell at them, a miracle.

"Did anyone come to visit today" She stepped into the Pei residence with an air of familiarity.

"Who is the guest!"

A figure walked out from behind the sofa, Guan Lei looked at the doorway with displeasure.

Zhu Xiaowei stood by the door frame, her expression stunned.

"Master Guan, Miss Guan," she called out after a long pause.

Guan Lei was clearly unhappy with this address. Her jaw lifted slightly, a hint of arrogance in her expression, as she sat down on the central sofa in the living room, radiating the air of a mistress of the house.

Since she's the housekeeper, why are you just standing there Hurry up and make breakfast!

Guan Lei spoke in a very assertive manner, Zhu Xiaowei didn't dare to argue with her and also felt she had no right to dispute with her. She simply nodded at Guan Lei and went into the kitchen.

Pei Haoran and Pei Yi were both in the living room, they both watched, without making a sound.

Zhu Xiaowei didn't have any expression on her face. She was still as skilled and calm as usual, cooking white porridge and stir-frying vegetables. Suddenly, she broke a plate with a loud crash. The sound seemed very out of place in the eerie atmosphere of the house. She panicked and immediately crouched down to pick up the shards, but accidentally cut her finger with a piece of broken pottery.

"How could you hire someone like this to be a nanny"

There was a sound coming from the living room, Zhu Xiaowei heard it and felt a little embarrassed. She became flustered and hurried up to finish packing.

It felt awful, like she had done something wrong, like she was in the wrong place and embarrassed to be there.

Having breakfast at the Pei family today was really agonizing. "I had some before I came, you guys enjoy," she made a feeble excuse for herself because she truly didn't want to share a meal with the three of them.

Pei Haoran didn't speak, just waved her away to do something else.

"You usually eat with us."

Pei Yi was still a child, eating his green beans with a small spoon. He looked up at her with big, questioning eyes.

In the beginning, they weren't eating at the same table. It was Pei Haoran who said he was worried that what she cooked might give him and his son diarrhea, so he asked her to "test the poison" first. Later, for some reason, her relationship with the father and son became closer and more natural.

Guan Lei gave Pei Yi a piece of advice, her tone was still gentle, while Zhu Xiaowei's smile froze on her face, she couldn't pretend anymore.

Guan Lei is right, generally nannies won't eat at the same table as their employers. She seems to have overstepped her boundaries.

Zhu Xiaowei found that even though Guan Lei was as domineering and powerful as ever, Pei Yi, the little guy, still liked Guan Lei very much. Especially when Guan Lei took the initiative to mention sending him to school today, his handsome face flushed red.

After all, she is the biological mother, and this blood relationship cannot be changed by anyone.

Guan Lei suddenly said today that she wanted to come and see Pei Yi.

When only Zhu Xiaowei and Pei Haoran were left in the house, Pei Haoran put down the newspaper and suddenly said to her.

Zhu Xiaowei didn't react at first, then nodded and hummed in response.

Actually, she didn't know how to respond. Guan Lei was Pei Yi's biological mother, and even though they were divorced, she still had visitation rights.

Zhu Xiaowei went back to the kitchen to tidy up, then went to the storeroom and took out a bucket, mop, and other cleaning supplies. When Pei Haoran came out of the study again, he saw her wearing gloves, a scarf, and even a work hat on her head, as if she were going to finish all the work that had piled up over the past six months.

"Here's your breakfast," he said, handing her a box of cookies.

Zhu Xiao Wei stared blankly without responding.

Pei Haoran chuckled, "Eat quickly, you need your strength to work for me." He then shoved the cookies directly into her hand.

She just held it without moving.

Pei Haoran turned his head slightly, a little awkwardly adding, "It hasn't expired."

Zhu Xiaowei looked at him for a moment, puffed up her cheeks, and mumbled, "I know." Then she didn't bother to look at him, took off her gloves, and went to nibble on something by the tea table.

She already knew these cookies weren't expired. This person was just deliberately trying to annoy her, making her uneasy about even eating them before.

"Don't treat me so well…" she mumbled under her breath, chewing quietly.

Pei Haoran had something to do outside today as well. He seemed to have gotten used to taking medicine after breakfast. After tidying up his files, he glanced at Zhu Xiaowei who was busy cleaning the house, his gaze lingering for a second on her fingers as she wrote.

He said flatly, "I'm leaving."

Then walk slowly and be careful on your way.

Pei Haoran glanced at her one more time, then hummed and drove away.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Qiao Baier called her again. She was probably reporting that her work wasn't going well today, and that the harsh director scolded her for a long time about getting sick.

"I just don't get it, what does my cold have to do with him It's like if I get sick he gets docked pay." Qiao Baoer was very down in the dumps.

On her phone, Zhu Xiaowei seemed distracted. Qiao Baoruo noticed that she didn't seem to have much energy today and asked with concern, "What's wrong"ard this, wanted to speak, but a sharp pain came from his heart. He covered his left chest with his right hand and gasped for breath urgently.Qiao Baoer saw that something was wrong with him and subco...
