Chapter 32: Why Do You Have So Many Ugly and Tattered Clothes?

Ming Yue held the black card and thought that from now on, she would use this card to pay for the child’s expenses.

Eat more nutritious food. If you want to buy clothes, buy good quality ones from big brands. Don’t be stingy with money. Don’t let my Liu family’s child suffer.”

Ming Yue was inexplicably unhappy when she heard his words. The child in her stomach was also her baby. “I’m his mother. Of course I won’t treat him badly.”

The light turned red and he stepped on the brakes. Liu Jingxing’s slender and fair hand knocked on the steering wheel. He said casually, “What I mean is that you should buy a new set of pajamas. Your pajamas are already pilling. If Grandma sees it during the video call, she might think that I’m abusing you.”

Ming Yue was stunned for a moment. She felt a little embarrassed, but then she felt that there was nothing to be embarrassed about. “It’s not like I can’t wear it anymore if it’s pilling. Anyway, I’m already used to wearing it.”

“Up to you,” Liu Jingxing said coldly. After a while, as if he couldn’t take it anymore, he took a deep breath and said in an unfriendly tone, “Is it just pilling? Miss Ming? Can’t you see that the threads are already loose? That night when I video-called Grandma, it was just for a while but the threads on it were already stuck to my clothes. Do you know how embarrassed I was when I took them down one by one?”

“Ah, this… I really didn’t notice that.” Ming Yue instantly looked embarrassed.

Liu Jingxing had obviously tolerated her for a long time. He said angrily, “I’m really curious where you found these ugly and tattered clothes. I’ve never had the experience of pulling threads. You’re really capable, Miss Ming!” He emphasized the last few words and gritted his teeth.

Ming Yue knew that she was in the wrong. She bit her lip and kept quiet. She really didn’t mean to wear clothes of poor quality to affect him. When she bought it, she spent a total of 150 yuan. Who would have thought that it would be of this quality? She smiled awkwardly and said, “Erm, don’t be angry. I’ll buy a new set.”

“You should do that as soon as possible.” Liu Jingxing started the car and subconsciously said, “Fortunately, you weren’t wearing that pilling pajamas that night…” Before he could finish, he froze. The car fell into an awkward silence. Neither of them spoke again. It was so quiet in the car that only the other party’s breathing could be heard.

However, even the sound of normal breathing sounded slightly ambiguous at this moment.

When they arrived at Fairview East, Liu Jingxing parked the car outside the neighborhood and the two of them got out of the car together. It was only ten o’clock. Liu Jingxing wanted to change his car and drive to the company. He spent so much time in the hospital today and most likely had to work overtime again. Who said that it was easy to be a boss? At the very least, employees had weekends and holidays to rest. Damn it, the boss had 365 days a year without rest. He couldn’t catch up to the donkeys in the production team.

Ming Yue obediently walked in front. Liu Jingxing followed behind her with a resentful expression. When he entered the neighborhood, he accidentally glanced at the security guard in the security booth and felt that he looked a little familiar. He took a closer look. He was too familiar with this face. “What’s wrong with you? Are you in trouble at home? You’re quite impressive to work two jobs.”

Sun Yu had a bitter look on his face. With tears in his eyes, he explained, “No, this is the only source of income I have now.”

Liu Jingxing frowned at him. “What do you mean? I’ve only been out for less than three hours, and you’ve already jumped ship?” Then he glanced at the uniform he was wearing. “They’re offering you a better remuneration?”

“I didn’t. Didn’t you fire me, Young Master?”

“Why didn’t I know about this?”

“Huh? You didn’t?” Sun Yu was dumbfounded.

Liu Jingxing walked forward and patted the other party’s shoulder. “You’re quite capable. You found a new job for yourself so quickly. Alright, since you like the job, you should work hard. There are 360 professions, and every profession produces a top worker.” He turned to leave, thinking that he had to hurry up and get Secretary Tang to find another driver with good skills who drove steadily.

The next second, he felt someone hugging him from behind. “Young master, I don’t want to be a security guard. They don’t pay me as much as you do. Boohoo.”

Liu Jingxing was amused by him. He pushed the other party’s hand away. “Alright, I’ll give you another chance. Work hard.”

Hence, Sun Yu apologized and thanked the security guard before quickly taking off his security uniform.

He obediently sat in his (office) car and looked at the entrance. As soon as the young madam went out, he would start working. In the security booth on the other side, the security guard shook his head helplessly. “None of the young people nowadays can withstand this loneliness. We still have to hire an older person.”

However, on second thought, this thinking was incorrect. If they recruited an older person, when the criminals broke into the neighborhood, they would not be able to stop them. As the first line of defense for the lives of the owners, the security guards had to recruit a young and strong person.
