I’m Pregnant with the Villain’s Child
chapter-127

Chapter 127 – I’ll explain it to you tonight when we get home (3)

“That’s good. Pregnancy is the most grueling experience. Back when I was pregnant with Wanwan, I was worn down to nothing by the end. I was throwing up in my first month…” As she said this, Shen Jing placed her hand over her daughter’s. Smiling, she segued, “This is my daughter, Wanwan. The two of you probably haven’t seen each other in a while.” Shen Jing secretly pinched the back of daughter’s hand.

Cheng Wan felt ashamed with how her mother was blatantly fawning her cousin. Her cheeks were flushed, and she kept her gaze lowered. She quietly greeted, “Hi Ye Zhen, Hi Ye Qing.”

Ye Qing glanced at her and lighted nodded. She wasn’t interested in talking to her.

In Cheng Wan’s memory, Ye Zhen had always been a reticent girl and wasn’t good at interacting with others. During past Lunar New Years, everyone would overlook her at family gatherings. Compared to Ye Qing, who was self-confident and relaxed in front of her relatives, Ye Zhen had been cautious. Her presence at family gatherings had been nonexistent.

Ye Zhen glanced at the thin-skinned girl and praised, “Wanwan is getting prettier and prettier. Has she graduated yet?”

“She’s a senior in college and doing her internship right now. She’ll be graduating next year and getting her diploma then.” After getting to this topic, Shen Jing sighed. “I’m so worried for her. She’s applied to so many jobs, but she didn’t get a response to any of them. Right now, she’s making do by being an intern at your dad’s company, but you know how your dad’s company hasn’t been doing well lately. There’s been constant talks of layoffs. Under the circumstances, I would feel embarrassed if your dad gave Wanwan a job offer after her graduation…”

As Shen Jing was saying this, she kept looking at Ye Zhen. Ye Zhen wasn’t an obtuse person, she naturally knew what her mom’s cousin wanted.

She wanted her to find a backdoor for her daughter.

Hearing these words, Cheng Wan felt too humiliated.

“Mom! I can find my own job!”

Shen Jing glared at her. “Can you get a good job with the diploma that you’re going to get? And you still have the nerve to be pig-headed? If you were even half as outstanding as your cousin Ye Zhen, I wouldn’t have to worry about you.”

“I still don’t want a handout!” Cheng Wan looked at Ye Zhen. “Ye Zhen, don’t listen to my mom. I can find a job for myself!”

“You infuriating child!” Shen Jing was furious. She was always thinking of how to help her daughter, but her daughter didn’t even appreciate it!

Ye Zhen smiled. “Little Aunt, don’t be like that. Wanwan seems quite outstanding too. She’ll definitely be able to find a good job by herself. You don’t need to worry.”

“How can I not worry? Everyone says that working at a state-owned enterprise will guarantee stability and public companies offer good salaries and benefits. But, how could a state-owned enterprise want Wanwan? It’s even less likely that a public company will want her. Wanwan has submitted so many resumes, but she hasn’t gotten any office interviews or even a phone call. I feel so worried that she hasn’t even been given a chance.”

Shen Jing continued to say, “Zhenzhen ah, don’t think poorly of Wanwan because of her college. Wanwan is very capable. She won so many awards during college that there’s not enough space in her room to display them all. She’s wonderful!”

Ye Zhen nodded, but she didn’t say anything. She looked at Cheng Wan, who was sitting there with flushed cheeks and dying of embarrassment.

“Zhenzhen ah, can you talk to your husband about my daughter… The Lu Corporation is the biggest company in this coastal city. If my daughter can enter that company, I won’t have to worry about her for the rest of my life!”

Cheng Wan mumbled, “I don’t even need you to worry about me right now.”
