Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 594

Chapter 594: Chapter 594: Official Appointment

"Has it been naughty today?"

Seeing Lin Chuxia’s small hand resting on her swollen belly, Qin Yang’s big hand also covered it.

As soon as he touched the woman’s hand, he felt the belly bulge; even with a hand in between, it was obvious.

"Is the little one kicking you again?"

From initially being curious and expectant about the baby’s movements to now, Qin Yang watched as the little one practiced tai chi in his wife’s belly at any given moment, and he began to feel sorry for her.

Sometimes, seeing her belly get deformed from the kicks, he worried that it might hurt her.

Even though Lin Chuxia repeatedly assured him that it didn’t feel too intense, he was still unsettled.

Lin Chuxia smiled slightly, "The little one is very good; he just knows dad is home and is welcoming you."

Qin Yang lowered his head and kissed her cheek, "Always trying to sweet-talk me," he said, holding her again and then glancing at her notebook, "Why are you working on these things again? Didn’t we agree you wouldn’t be working recently?"

"It’s a rare opportunity. I initially thought of letting Su Wensong and Ms. Zhuang have some contact, but after thinking about it, it seemed inappropriate. If we can get this done, not only will our food factory business grow, but my business empire can add another division."

"My dear wife, while thinking about expanding your business empire, can you remember you have a husband who is supposed to be handling these tasks?"

It didn’t make sense for his wife to charge forward into battles while he enjoyed a comfortable life behind the scenes.

Lin Chuxia disagreed, "There’s nothing about who should do what. You and I, as a couple, are a whole unit. Whatever we do, it’s for this family," and for their child in the future, "Besides, you have your duties, and I have my pursuits. I’ve told you I enjoy this kind of work."

Lin Chuxia indeed had said that before, and Qin Yang immediately found himself at a loss.

"Then promise me you’ll take care of yourself."

"Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself."

Qin Yang didn’t delay any longer, knowing Lin Chuxia might get hungry easily, and quickly headed to the kitchen to prepare a meal.

During their meal, Qin Yang unexpectedly brought up something about work.

"I probably won’t be home for lunch tomorrow. Vice Minister Liu’s transfer order has come down; we’ve been doing handovers these past few days, and tomorrow he’s officially leaving the department. A few of us from the unit are planning a get-together."

Lin Chuxia nodded, "Okay, I can handle lunch myself, don’t worry about me."

"And... if there are any rumors around the family compound lately, don’t let them get to you. Let them say whatever they want; you don’t need to pay them any mind. Others may make things sound complicated, but do you trust me?"

Lin Chuxia looked up to see Qin Yang appearing rather earnest for once and suddenly laughed, "If I don’t trust you, then who? Silly."

Qin Yang laughed along, "Is everyone outside saying that after Vice Minister Liu leaves, Feng Dajun will take his place?"

Lin Chuxia nodded without denying and added, "I also know that most of these rumors probably came directly from Sister-in-law Feng herself."

Qin Yang snickered, "Feng Dajun indeed has the capability, and he has the ambition too. Li Wei once told me that as soon as he learned Vice Minister Liu was leaving earlier this year, he started preparing for it."

Lin Chuxia added a piece of food to Qin Yang’s plate.

Clearly, hearing such news from someone inside was quite interesting.

Feng Dajun had the ability and ambition, and he’d been making efforts in this direction since before the New Year.

Yet now, hearing Qin Yang talk about it meant that the hard work some people had put in might be for naught?

Whether Feng Dajun becomes vice minister or not, she wasn’t interested, but imagining Sister-in-law Feng boasting in the compound and then seeing her pride dashed if Feng Dajun didn’t get the position was quite amusing.

One wonders if Feng Dajun is aware of Sister-in-law Feng’s revelations.

After all, it had been known for a while that Vice Minister Liu was leaving, so it seemed justifiable if someone had been pre-selected. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
