Chapter 78 A Family Should Be All Together
"Okay."
Zhou Yujie reached out, took the keys, and got into the driver's seat.
"Is this uncle's car?"
Seeing Wu Wei's Panamera, astonishment filled Xuanxuan's big eyes.
"Yeah."
Wu Wei said as he opened the rear door and put her in before he too got in.
"Uncle's car is so pretty!"
Xuanxuan excitedly looked around the inside of the car, "It's just like the ones mom sells."
Wu Wei laughed and said, "Haha, this car is the one your mom sold to me."
However, upon hearing this, Xuanxuan suddenly pursed her lips and looked at Wu Wei with a frown.
Wu Wei was baffled by her reaction, "What's the matter?"
Xuanxuan tugged at Wu Wei's sleeve with a pitiful look and said, "Uncle, could you not let mommy sleep with you?"
Caught off guard by her words, Wu Wei was stunned.
Zhou Yujie, who was driving, was even more startled by the remark and immediately hit the brakes, bringing the car that had just started to a halt.
She quickly turned around to look at Xuanxuan, her face extremely troubled as she asked in a cold voice, "Xuanxuan, where did you hear what you just said?"
Seeing Zhou Yujie's expression, Xuanxuan felt as if she had done something wrong, and with a nervous face, she said, "Liu Haoyu and the others said it..."
Seeing Xuanxuan's somewhat scared look, Zhou Yujie realized she had overreacted, and quickly adjusted her expression and tone, "Xuanxuan, mommy isn't blaming you. Can you tell mommy exactly what they said, okay?"
After a moment of thought, Xuanxuan clearly recounted, "They said that after mom sells a car, she has to sleep with the person who bought the car, and that you didn't come to pick up Xuanxuan from school because you went to sleep with them."
Hearing this, disbelief spread across Zhou Yujie's face.
She could never have imagined that her job would be seen in such a light by those children.
It even affected Xuanxuan, causing her to have misunderstandings about her.
Xuanxuan is still young now and doesn't know what 'sleeping' means, but what if she were a bit older?
At this thought, Zhou Yujie's heart suddenly felt unbearable distress.
Wu Wei watched Zhou Yujie's expression and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He patted Xuanxuan's head and said softly, "Xuanxuan, don't listen to your classmates' nonsense. Your mommy didn't come to pick you up because she got off work late, not because she went to sleep with someone else, understand?"
"Oh, got it," Xuanxuan nodded her head, still somewhat confused.
Wu Wei didn't need to think to know what was going on.
What could children know?
Such talk, for sure, came from adults.
Yujie, being a stunningly beautiful woman with fair skin and long legs, was definitely the center of attention among the kindergarten parents, especially the fathers.
Unable to attain her and knowing that she worked at Porsche, wearing suits and black stockings everyday, all sorts of crude jokes and colored stories were surely abundant.
He could imagine them gathering in small groups, chatting eagerly and animatedly while waiting to pick up their kids.
The children overheard by chance, and then picked it up themselves.
Wu Wei leaned forward to look at Zhou Yujie in the front, and spoke to comfort her, "Senior sister, don't worry about what they say. Those people have dirty minds; whatever they think is filthy, especially when they see a beautiful woman, they like to make crude remarks and fabricate stories."
"I know, I don't care what they say."
Zhou Yujie shook her head, started the car again, and said, "Before I joined Porsche, I had heard about what people say about Porsche sales. I was prepared to be talked about. What I didn't expect was, Xuanxuan now..."
Wu Wei was very aware of Zhou Yujie's feelings. She didn't want Xuanxuan to misunderstand her job, nor did she want Xuanxuan to be ridiculed by her classmates because of her job.
"Senior sister, stop working at Porsche,"
Wu Wei seized the moment to say, "You don't earn much, and you can't take care of Xuanxuan. I'll find you a job that's definitely better than this one."
"You'll find me a job?"
Zhou Yujie, intrigued, responded, "But with my second-tier university degree, and not having learned much at school, can I really?"
Zhou Yujie thought that Wu Wei wanted to arrange a position for her at his friend's company, and she couldn't help feeling a little anxious, afraid that she might not be up to the task.
"Don't worry, you will definitely be able to!"
Wu Wei said with great certainty.
"What kind of job is it?"
Zhou Yujie still lacked confidence, "Tell me about it, and I'll see if I can handle it."
"You don't need to worry about that."
Wu Wei said directly, "Just go resign tomorrow, and then spend some quality time with Xuanxuan for a few days; leave the rest to me."
In his original plan, there had always been a job element; now he was simply giving her a heads-up about it.
"Okay, I trust you."
Zhou Yujie felt that since Wu Wei had said so, it was certainly not going to be worse than being a Porsche salesperson, so she agreed happily.
Thinking about resigning tomorrow, no longer having to work, Zhou Yujie suddenly felt a sense of relief wash over her body, and her mood also became refreshing.
It felt as if her body had become lighter.
And the face that had hardened because of Xuanxuan's words gradually broke into a smile.
Seeing her mother smiling again, Xuanxuan's spirits lifted once more.
The atmosphere in the car slowly returned to its previous joy.
The three of them arrived at Rongchuang Mall in high spirits.
After entering, Wu Wei carried Xuanxuan to the DQ store and said, "Xuanxuan, choose whatever you want."
"Wow, there are so many pretty ice creams here, I'm drooling!"
Looking at the store's array of uniquely shaped and tempting ice creams, Xuanxuan was like a kid discovering a new world, her big eyes shining with excitement, swallowing her saliva incessantly.
"These ice creams are way too expensive!"
Zhou Yujie was startled by the prices in the store, "Just buy her a cone from Mixue Bingcheng."
"Try something different for a change."
Wu Wei smiled and said, "Come on, each of us choose one."
"I'd rather not eat."
Zhou Yujie felt a bit embarrassed.
"Then you better not crave it when Xuanxuan and I are eating!"
Wu Wei teased, "Choose one, as a family we should all enjoy together!"
A family?
Zhou Yujie gave Wu Wei a strange look when she heard that.
But seeing that Wu Wei seemed to have said it casually, and considering that siblings are indeed family, she went back to normal.
"Alright, I'll choose one too, it's been so long since I've had ice cream!"
Zhou Yujie's appetite was whetted by the dazzling array of ice creams in the display window.
A moment later, Zhou Yujie and Wu Wei had made their selections.
However, Xuanxuan was still indecisive.
The ice creams were different from any she had tasted before, and she wanted to try them all!
But she could only eat one, so which one should she choose?
Wu Wei couldn't help but smile, "Xuanxuan, choose the one you want to eat the most right now, and I'll bring you back to try the others another time."
Upon hearing this, Xuanxuan's hesitation vanished, and she immediately pointed to one, "Uncle, I want this ice cream."
Wu Wei saw that it was a double-headed monster cone.
Xuanxuan's thoughts were simple; by choosing this cone, she could eat two kinds of ice cream at once.
Wu Wei promptly ordered and paid.
Just then, a system notification suddenly popped up.
