The first day of the nursery ended with Shen Yichong late for work and Nuannuan missing the first lesson.
According to Chen Lin’s report from the scene, Shen Yichong finally decided to be ruthless. After walking around for 16 laps with Little Sweetheart, he realized that his daughter was indeed spoiled by him. She had begun to be afraid of what ordinary children could accept – new things, including friends and teachers, unfamiliar environments.
For the sake of his daughter’s future, Shen Yichong held back the heartache he felt and sent the tearful Little Sweetheart to the nursery and handed her over to the teacher. He personally asked all the teachers in charge of the class for their contact number and WeChat, including the director of the nursery.
After that, he finally went to work in peace. After all these, it was almost half past ten when he arrived at the company, although he went out at seven o’clock. He could be this laidback just because he was a boss!
“Lady boss, the boss asked me to draw up a new personnel plan today.”Chen Lin did not forget to report the key points. After working as a personal assistant for so long, he had clearly seen Yu Yaoyao’s power: to make Mr. Shen happy, you must first make her happy. Since the last equity transfer, Yu Yaoyao was now also the company’s largest shareholder. Therefore, he notified her of the insider information in advance.
“Huh? What’s the situation?” Yaoyao replied. She was still participating in the parent-child game at Shen Rui’s school. They just won the championship in the game. “What did he do to make everyone complain?”
Shen Yichong was an unselfish boss in the company, and many people were afraid of him.
“No, no. It’s a good thing,” Chen Lin said. “The boss just announced that as long as employees have children, they can enjoy the flexible working system for 15 days a month from today.”
“Flexible?”
“Yes, so that everyone can pick up and drop off the children at school. Even if their children take their time in the morning, the employees will not be considered late for work. The time would be flexible, but as long as they work for 8 hours a day.”
After Chen Lin finished speaking, Yu Yaoyao’s mouth opened wide. She didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. It seemed like Shen Yichong experienced the difficulties of ordinary parents in just one day. He didn’t realize it before, but Little Sweetheart cried and refused to go to the nursery, which made him reach work late… It directly stimulated him, so he gave all parents working in Guangxin the convenience and flexibility.“It’s not bad. There are only fifteen chances to be late in a month, so he may stop spoiling Little Nuan,” Yu Yaoyao nodded.
And in the afternoon, she received a call from Shen Yichong inviting her to pick up Little Sweetheart right after she finished a set of yoga. Yu Yaoyao looked at the clock on the wall and wiped her sweat.
She thought: it was only three o’clock, do nursery schools close so early?
Of course, she was also anxious about her own daughter. After all, it was the first day Little Sweetheart would mingle in a group. She heard that the kids in the nursery had to take a nap, and she didn’t know if Little Nuan was used to sleeping with her new quilt.
Yu Yaoyao agreed, and simply told Shen Yichong not to go home too. She suggested that they meet directly at the nursery to pick up Little Sweetheart. Then, they would pick up Little Bun after that. The boss on a flexible work schedule agreed immediately. But when Yu Yaoyao asked the driver to take her to the nursery, she only saw the door was closed when she arrived. There was not even a parent waiting outside.
“Huh? I’m early? School isn’t over yet!” she exclaimed.
Yaoyao came to a conclusion at once. She was now familiar with these children’s affairs. When she went to pick up Little Bun, the cars of the parents were parked on both sides of the road in front of the school. At the school gate, there would even be a bunch of grandparents, parents, and even nannies looking at their watches, waiting eagerly for the bell to ring. Now, there was no one yet at the scene. This meant that she came too early.
“Sorry, there are a lot of red lights on the road, it’s a little jam. I’m late.”
Shen Yichong’s calm voice rang behind Yu Yaoyao while she was scrutinizing the school timetable posted outside the gate.
“Wait a minute, darling,” she said, looking at him suspiciously, “we seem to have gotten the time wrong. The school is dismissed at half past four. It’s just half past three now.”
“It’s not wrong,” Shen Yichong replied, with his usual stoic expression, “we came early so Little Nuan can see us as soon as possible.”
“…”
Yu Yaoyao was speechless.
“Are your legs sore? Go sit in the car, I’ll call you when the gate opens,” he said. Shen Yichong was quite considerate. He did not forget the needs of his wife.
Yu Yaoyao: “…”
She shook her head, fearing that her husband was going crazy day by day. After glancing at her phone, she actually walked back to the car. When she chatted with Chen Lin, she realized that the boss was not in the mood for work and had to come out.
“After the boss had a meeting in the morning, he ate alone at noon while watching Little Nuan’s video,” Chen Lin gossiped. “In the afternoon, he was also a little absent-minded. When we got into the elevator, he was still in a trance. He seemed very worried and he kept asking me if young boys like to bully beautiful girls… He also asked me to check the common age range where children have their first puppy love…”
Yu Yaoyao almost fainted when she heard it. Was he doing this because he was afraid that his daughter would be bullied, and that she was too cute to be pursued? Shen Yichong was worrying so much! Yu Yaoyao thought hard about it and couldn’t find a solution at all.
Soon, the school was dismissed, and parents arrived one after another. Shen Yichong was standing first at the door. He even grabbed a good spot. He made up his mind to make his Little Sweetheart to be the first happy child to be picked up.
