War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon，Please Surrender!-Chapter 427: The Assistant Is Like Grass

Gu Xiaonian tilted her head slightly, "Daddy, you agreed, but what about Mommy?"

"Of course, with your Mommy. Daddy will tell Mommy. From now on, our family will try to have dinner at home together every day. Daddy and Mommy will cook together."

"Great!"

The two children were, of course, very happy and willing.

Children’s happiness is always quite simple: parents by their side, no sickness, toys, food...

"By the way, Daddy, I really like the room you prepared. I love it so much!"

Gu Xiaobao also nodded vigorously to show he really liked it too.

Hearing their approval, Tang Yuxiu felt a sense of accomplishment, "As long as you like it."

At first, when he learned there would be two little ones in his life, he went home and saw the decorations of these two rooms. He was worried they wouldn’t like it, but now seeing their attitude, he was completely relieved.

"If there’s anything you want or like, just tell Daddy, and Daddy will figure out a way to satisfy you."

"We don’t want much, just wish Daddy and Mommy could spend more time with us."

Tang Yuxiu’s heart trembled slightly. Indeed, he missed out on five years with them. He should properly accompany them now to make up for those five missed years.

"Daddy promises you, if it’s not something important that requires my presence, I will make time to be with you."

"Daddy, you said it, you can’t go back on your word."

"Definitely won’t go back on my word," Tang Yuxiu assured.

"That’s great. Daddy, do you have any urgent work today?"

At this, Tang Yuxiu slightly frowned, "There are still some things from yesterday that aren’t dealt with. I don’t have time today, but I have already thought it over. Today, Aunt Xiang Lan will take you out for fun, okay?"

"Okay, of course. Daddy, you go ahead and be busy. Look at Mommy, she went to work without even a goodbye, Daddy, you’re much more considerate than Mommy."

Tang Yuxiu slightly curved his lips. Thinking of Gu Yan, he couldn’t wait to see her.

But the company’s matters couldn’t be delayed. He thought, since she’s back home, there’s plenty of time in the future. He’s hardly worried she’d run away.

Yanyan, this day, I’ve been waiting so patiently...

Tang Yuxiu’s eyes showed a profound meaning, not sure what he was thinking.

In the office, Gu Yan suddenly sneezed. She rubbed her nose, feeling nothing unusual, and continued to work.

Tang Yuxiu waited for Xue Xianglan to come over and take the two children before heading to work.

Before leaving, he specifically reminded them, "Xiang Lan, Gu Xiaobao and Gu Xiaonian will stay at your place tonight. I’ll pick them up tomorrow."

"Eh, why stay at Aunt Xiang Lan’s house for a night?"

"We just got back, Daddy, and you want us to stay elsewhere."

The two children pouted, looking unhappy.

Tang Yuxiu patted their heads to comfort them, "Be good, today Daddy wants to have a little time alone with Mommy. Children shouldn’t be lightbulbs, okay?"

Upon hearing this, the two children’s eyes lit up, "Daddy, are you going to roll in the bed with Mommy again?"

Uh? Cough cough...

Xue Xianglan nearly choked on her own saliva.

Such words coming out of children’s mouths, how shocking isn’t it.

Xue Xianglan looked at Tang Yuxiu oddly, "Is this how you teach your kids?"

Tang Yuxiu was also awkward for a change, "They learned it themselves, not sure where they heard such nonsense."

"Well, they are smart enough then..." Xue Xianglan was speechless.

These two kids are really too formidable in self-learned stuff.

"Daddy, good luck." The two kids meaningfully gave him a thumbs-up, encouragement gesture, and Tang Yuxiu twitched his lips.

...

Tang Yuxiu dealt with matters swiftly upon arriving at the company and planned to leave by noon without having lunch.

You Shuyang, noticing his demeanor, knew he was about to ditch work again.

"President, why are you always absent without leave?"

"It’s my company. I come and go as I please. How’s that absence without leave?"

You Shuyang, "..." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Big President, you never used to speak like this. You’ve changed, you’ve really changed.

"By the way, from now on, I will prepare for retirement, devote myself to accompanying the kids and my wife. I will gradually transfer company matters to you and hire someone to manage it."

What?

Assistant You seemed to have heard something unbelievable.

"Young Master, aren’t you having a fever? You’re still so young, retiring this early? Are you kidding me?"

"How many times do I have to reiterate for you to understand? Am I the kind to joke around?"

You Shuyang fell silent again. Of course, you never joke, but he wished what you said weren’t true.

Over the years, apart from the one month of marriage honeymoon vacation when he first got married, Tang Yugui had never granted him another holiday, nor his wife.

This high-intensity work would wear him down.

He always fantasized that one day the big President would be kind-hearted again and give them a long vacation, to go out, have fun, and enhance the relationship with his wife. Now, what the big President said was like a bolt from the blue.

"President, I have something serious and earnest to say."

"What’s that?"

"I want to resign," You Shuyang spoke word by word, expressionless.

Tang Yuxiu paused, glanced over him, making You Shuyang almost want to lose his composure.

After a while, he mildly asked back, "Are you sure?"

You Shuyang silently cheered himself on, nodded firmly, "President, I’ve been working under you and after that month-long marriage vacation, I’ve not really taken a proper break. I’m not made out of iron, moreover, it’s not only you who has a wife, I have one too, yet no kids. I’m even more pathetic. Now that you want to throw everything on me for your wife and kids, I can’t bear it. After all, I also want some time each day with my wife."

You Shuyang had this thought countless times, speaking it out now made him a little panic-stricken, especially with Tang Yuxiu looking at him with eyes of unclear intent. He felt even more nervous.

To be honest, places paying this well aren’t easy to come by these days, not to mention the boss is an acquaintance, so much less constraint, and the work is relatively easy-going.

If it wasn’t for the immense pressure, for his wife, actually, it wouldn’t matter to him.

Tang Yuxiu looked at him for quite a while, almost breaking down Shuyang’s psychological defense. Just when Shuyang thought of conceding, Tang Yuxiu spoke.

"I know your work intensity is high, but I hadn’t realized the pressure was this great. Over these years, it’s my negligence."

Shuyang silently added: He wouldn’t care, anyway, besides Gu Yan, he hasn’t ever cared about anything else, he understands that.

An assistant is just like grass, huh.
