Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhang Kun had been resting at home for the past few days. Even Ji Zi’ang felt that something was wrong.

When he returned home that day, he looked at Zhang Kun, who was cooking in the kitchen, with tears in his eyes.

Li Xu came out from the kitchen with the dishes in her hands. She immediately saw his bitter expression.

“What’s wrong? Who bullied you?” Li Xu asked in surprise.

Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be. With Ji Zi’ang’s personality, how could he let others bully him?

Sure enough, Ji Zi’ang shook his head and choked. “No one bullied me!”

“If no one bullied you, why are you crying?” Li Xu quickly placed the dishes on the table and went forward to wipe Ji Zi’ang’s tears.

Ji Zi’ang looked at Zhang Kun and sniffed. “Is Dad sick?”

Zhang Kun came out of the kitchen and heard Ji Zi’ang’s words. He asked in surprise, “What’s wrong? Am 1 not fine?”

Ji Zi’ang broke free from Li Xu, he went forward and hugged Zhang Kun’s thigh. “If you weren’t sick, why did you stay at home for so long? Liu Peng said that adults wouldn’t stay at home for such a long time for no reason. You must be sick, and it’s a terminal illness!”

The more Ji Zi’ang spoke, the sadder he became. In the end, he burst into tears, “Dad, 1 don’t want you to die. Please don’t die!”

Zhang Kun and Li Xu looked at each other. They felt both amused and touched.

“Liu Peng is talking nonsense. Your Dad is perfectly fine. He’s alive and kicking,” Li Xu quickly explained.

Ji Zi’ang was still in disbelief, “Liu Peng also said that adults wouldn’t tell the truth in order not to worry the child, so they would find an excuse. Dad, if you die, 1 won’t live anymore.”

He hugged Zhang Kun’s leg and cried out loud.

Ji Zixuan listened to Ji Zixuan’s words. At first, his expression was a little surprised, but soon after, his eyes turned red.

Ji Yuanyuan stood at the side, feeling a little awkward for a moment.

Although she knew that his father’s health was definitely fine, after all, if something really happened, her mother wouldn’t be so relaxed. However, both of her brothers were so sincere. If she didn’t put on an act, wouldn’t she appear too heartless?

Just as Ji Yuanyuan’s thoughts were running wild, Zhang Kun said, “Dad’s health is very good. The reason why I’m resting at home is because 1 had something to do. When you are not at home, I am always outside.”

Seeing this, Zhang Kun simply picked Ji Zi’ang up and wanted to use his hand to wipe away his tears.

Ever since Zhang Kun moved in, Ji Zi’ang’s appetite had skyrocketed. Recently, he had grown a lot taller and put on a lot of weight.

Zhang Kun actually found it somewhat strenuous to carry him.

Therefore, when he raised his hand, he staggered and almost couldn’t hold him.

Ji Zi’ang was stunned for a moment and had an ‘as expected’ expression on his face.

Liu Peng had also said that generally, people who were sick would have some abnormal areas, such as their bodies would suddenly become weak.

In the past, his father carried him easily.

But now…

He actually couldn’t carry him anymore!

“Zi’ang, you’ve gained weight!”

Ji Zi’ang was still brewing tears, but Zhang Kun’s words made him stop in his tracks.

“Your mother and I plan to open another shop. We’ve been looking for a suitable shop recently!” Zhang Kun gave Li Xu a look.

Li Xu quickly reacted, “Yes, your Dad goes out for a stroll every day. His legs are almost broken from running.”

Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang looked at Zhang Kun with doubt, “Really?”

Zhang Kun nodded vigorously, “Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to you?”

Ji Zi’ang blinked and became happy again, “You’re really not sick?”

Zhang Kun answered seriously, “Of course. My body is fine. I’m not sick.”

Ji Zi’ang broke into a smile and wiped his tears, “I’ll tell Liu Peng tomorrow that my Dad is not sick!”

Li Xu shook her head and went to the kitchen, “Your deskmate, Liu Peng, has quite an imagination.”

He had only rested at home for a few days, but in his eyes, he was already a terminal patient.

Zhang Kun patted his head. “Put down your bag. We can eat in a while.”

He bent down and put Ji Zi’ang down.

Ji Zi’ang lifted his sleeves, wiped his face, and ran back to the bedroom happily.

Zhang Kun and Li Xu returned to the kitchen.

This matter quickly passed with Ji Zi’ang, but Zhang Kun was tempted.

In the evening, he discussed it with Li Xu, “How about I ride my bike and look around tomorrow? If there’s a suitable store, we can rent it. There are seven acres of greenhouses at home now, and your store can’t sell them all.”

Li Xu was a little hesitant, “If we open a branch shop, we’ll definitely need to recruit people. I don’t know if it’ll be easy to recruit people at this time of year.”

She paused for a moment, she said in a low voice, “We have to trust them. I originally wanted to recruit someone to work in this shop for a period of time. I want to see how their character is. Otherwise, when the new shop opens, there won’t be anyone to look after it. Then…”

If they had a bad character and all the customers ran away in anger, wouldn’t the new shop be ruined?

Thinking of this question, Zhang Kun did not speak for a long time.

Just as Li Xu was about to change the topic, Zhang Kun suddenly said, “I have an idea. Why don’t you hear if it’s suitable?”

Li Xu raised her head, “Tell me!”

“There is one person in my mind that we can trust. I just don’t know if she is willing,” Zhang Kun said mysteriously.

Hearing Zhang Kun’s words, Li Xu hammered him in dissatisfaction, “If you have something to say, just say it. What do you mean by saying it half hanging?”

Zhang Kun smiled and reached out to hug her tightly before saying, “Hu Chunli!”

Hearing this name, Li Xu was stunned for a moment before saying, “Chunli is a university graduate, will she be willing?”

“That’s where you’re wrong.” Zhang Kun shook his head. “I think this opportunity is just right for Hu Chunli.”

Seeing that Li Xu’s expression was still doubtful, Zhang Kun said, “Didn’t you say that Hu Chunli has already decided to divorce Yang Junying?”

Li Xu had not met Hu Chunli recently, so she did not know whether the couple had divorced or not.

However, judging from Hu Chunli’s expression at that time, she had already made up her mind to divorce Yang Junying.

“Yes.” Li Xu nodded.

“If they really divorced, what would happen to Hu Chunli if she lost her source of income? The bigger the child, the more money she would have to spend. She has to find a job and save some money,” Zhang Kun analyzed carefully for Li Xu, “If it’s a normal job, will she be able to cook for Jingyi in the afternoon and evening? Will she be able to pick up and send the child?”

Li Xu listened and felt that Zhang Kun’s words were quite reasonable.

If Jingyi was an ordinary child, then she would just make do with it.

She would find a day shift for lunch and go home by herself in the evening.

However, Jingyi was not an ordinary child. Hu Chunli would never be willing to let her child be raised so freely.

Under such circumstances, it was difficult to balance work and family.

“But if you hire her, it won’t be a rush hour at noon, and it won’t be a problem to close the shop. Her time will be very flexible. She can even bring her child to work on weekends..”
