Chapter 910: Chapter 910: Chaotic Year

"Me?" He Zhilan shook her head, "Sister Lin, you know what I’m like. If it weren’t for your indulgence, which boss would want an employee like me who only works part-time? The new employees have been here for a while. Whichever one you think fits can take over the management. I’ll just assist from the sidelines. That way, I can slack off openly and legitimately!"

Sister Lin raised her hand and tapped He Zhilan’s forehead. "Ambition! You clearly have the ability, but you insist on staying cooped up in your little home playing the good wife, spinning around your hubby He Mutou all day!"

"I can! In my whole life, my biggest ambition isn’t to be a powerful woman. I just want to support my husband and teach my children. I’m even thinking of having kids soon!" He Zhilan stuck out her tongue at Sister Lin, making a mischievously naughty face. "You understand, Sister Lin..."

"I understand! I understand! How could I not? You must be desperate to be a mom. But looking at He Mutou’s age, it’s indeed time to have children. If you wait any longer, he’ll be nearing forty."

Sister Lin really understood He Zhilan’s feelings; after all, her husband He Teng was much older than He Zhilan. So, He Zhilan’s desire to have children was mostly for He Teng’s sake.

Sister Lin was always quick to act. Once a decision was made, she arranged everything and quickly shifted the focus of the translation agency to the capital. However, as she said, the translation agency in the city didn’t close down. It still kept some staff to carry on with the work as usual.

A week before the New Year, He Zhilan also made a special trip to the capital. As the boss of Lanteng Company, she needed to organize all employees for an end-of-year celebration, get together for a meal, and give out New Year bonuses in advance.

Lanteng Company was busy with work for two days straight before finally giving everyone a holiday, ending a hard year. After finishing the tasks at Fang Therapy Pavilion, He Zhilan specially found time to visit the Lin Family, bringing early New Year’s gifts. After all, she would definitely stay with He Teng at the military base during the New Year, so she wouldn’t have time to go to the capital during those days.

When He Zhilan arrived at the Lin family home, Lin’s father and mother were extremely delighted, gladly accepting the carefully chosen New Year’s gifts from He Zhilan. The two elders were full of praises, saying He Zhilan was more filial and considerate than Lin Chan.

"Dad, Mom, are you saying you really wish you’d had me as a daughter back then?" Lin Chan was clearly a bit sour, "What’s so good about having a daughter? Look at Miss Zhilan. Since she got married, she’s glued to He Teng every day. You even have to queue to get a glance of her! A son is better! In the future, I’ll bring you a daughter-in-law, and you can dote on her like a daughter!"

"Mom’s been waiting who knows how many years, still a daughter-in-law? Haven’t even caught a glimpse of her hair, I’ve long stopped counting on you!" Lin’s mother, feeling a bit younger, teased Lin Chan and then asked He Zhilan and Lin Chan to wait in the living room, as she went to the kitchen to help the nanny with the cooking.

Lin Chan gave He Zhilan a look to follow her to her room. Once the door was closed, Lin Chan laughed slyly and asked, "Has He Dongxue come to you complaining about me or talking behind my back?"

He Zhilan was startled and shook her head, "I’ve been busy in the capital these last two days and haven’t had the chance to see Dongxue yet. What’s up? Have you provoked her? Bullied her?"

Lin Chan’s expression changed immediately, her hand waving dismissively with an awkward laugh, "Never~" Obviously, her denial seemed somewhat guilty, so Lin Chan quickly changed the subject, "By the way, did you know that Elder Gu has been hospitalized again?"

"Again?" He Zhilan only noticed this particular word.
