Reunion in Xiao She De

Chapter 42: Family Reunion in Xiao She De

Early the next morning, Wang Yue set off to see President Xiang. He was greeted by President Xiang's assistant, a tall, beautiful woman named He Yingying, as she introduced herself.

If it were in the past, the idle Wang Yue would have at least tried to get her contact information, perhaps to flirt with her later, maybe even solve his single status.

But today's Wang Yue put on a cool, professional demeanor, handling matters strictly business. Assistant He, who had prepared herself for potential harassment, found her mental preparation to be in vain.

In reality, Assistant He was overthinking. Wang Yue was still thinking about his Guan Guan and had no intention of provoking anyone else.

Assistant He merely gave him a surprised glance, assuming he was deliberately trying to get her attention. She then proceeded to lead Wang Yue directly to the equipment without even offering him a cup of coffee.

Wang Yue didn't mind. He carefully inspected the wiring and assembly of the equipment. Finding no issues, he began to calibrate it until it was functioning normally, all without exchanging a single word with the beautiful assistant.

Once the equipment was running properly, he called Assistant He over again. Assistant He thought, Just as I expected, he was pretending to be aloof. I knew he'd try something. Just as she was about to adopt an attitude to reject Wang Yue's advances, Wang Yue instructed her to call their technicians. He then proceeded to teach them step-by-step how to operate the equipment, ignoring her once more.

After more than a week of hard work, Wang Yue finally started his journey back, only after their technicians could operate the equipment normally and produce qualified products. Assistant He was left behind, muttering to herself, Serves you right for being single.

On his way back, he saw a notification on his company WeChat: Wang Yue of the design department was appointed as the company's Assistant General Manager, responsible for assisting Vice President Li with daily affairs. President Li's actions were swift! As expected of the cunning old fox.

Upon seeing this news, Wang Yue, who was physically and mentally exhausted, felt instantly relieved. A promotion and a raise felt great; all that was missing was a beautiful, rich girlfriend.

Sigh, in So Young, after being able to eat well, he stopped caring about money, knowing he could never spend it all. This job, having just reached a small step up, made Wang Yue incredibly happy.

How embarrassing, he had met important people before!

When Wang Yue returned to the company, he said goodbye to Xu Jing and Brother Yan and moved to the assistant office area.

With his new position, Wang Yue's daily work changed, but it remained constantly busy. However, to Wang Yue's disappointment, he kept watching So Young, but he still couldn't transmigrate.

One day, Wang Yue finished work around nine o'clock. On the bus back to his rented room, Wang Yue saw two stylish young women leaning their heads together, looking at a phone screen and chatting, "What kind of classes did you enroll your child in?"

"What else? Basketball! I heard the gymnasium opened a new sports class specifically for improving athletic scores. Did you enroll your child?"

"Yes, I did. What else can I do? I can guide them with their academic subjects if they're not doing well, but if their sports scores aren't up, there's nothing I can do! They say they want educational fairness, so they canceled classes for core subjects, but these sports classes are just as exhausting. Besides, 'poor people study, rich people do martial arts' – this leaves no way out for poor people."

"But the child likes sports a lot more; they just love to move."

Listening to them discuss their children, Wang Yue subconsciously thought of his Yuan Yuan and Tuan Tuan. When he came back, Yuan Yuan was only in fourth grade.

Sigh, maybe if he watched So Young again, he could transmigrate this time?

Seeing that his bus stop was approaching, Wang Yue stood up to get off. He happened to glance at the phone screen of the young woman in front of him.

"Beep, detected host is watching the TV drama Xiao She De, system loading..."

"Beep, loading successful, transmigration function activating..."

Does this system really only transmigrate once a month? Or does it have a month-long cooldown, and then it transmigrates whenever he watches TV? But he had been watching So Young all along and couldn't transmigrate. He needed to figure this out. Stupid system, are you going to crash if you tell me?

"Are you getting off or not?" the bus driver urged impatiently.

"Yes, getting off, getting off right away. Sorry," Wang Yue said as he got off the bus, excitedly rushing towards Fengfan Middle School.

As for why Wang Yue was so excited? It was because this time he was transmigrating with his family. His wife was Ruan Wan, exactly the same as the Ruan Wan from the previous world, and Yuan Yuan and Tuan Tuan were also the same.

Even though their memories were different, it was good enough to see them again. What more could he ask for?

The happy Wang Yue was about to enter Fengfan Middle School when he met his colleague Xia Junshan at the school gate.

"Wang Yue, why did I see you get off the bus? Where's your car?" Xia Junshan asked in surprise.

"Ah, I got stuck in the design institute and couldn't get out," Wang Yue said, frustrated. In his memory, the design institute was usually busy. Today, his arrival time at the company was unfortunate, and there were no convenient parking spots. He just parked wherever he could find a space. When he checked after work, he saw that the director's car was blocking his!

"No, couldn't you just ask someone to move it?" Xia Junshan was even more confused.

"That's the director's car. In his eyes, I'm not a good subordinate for not working overtime at the company. Ask him to move my car? Forget it!" Wang Yue felt powerless to complain about the director at the design institute. He was an adult but acted like a primary school student, always checking attendance.

If Wang Yue's designs weren't always appreciated by the dean, the director would have found a way to discipline him. Xia Junshan wasn't much better off, but he was the former dean's son-in-law, so the director couldn't do much to him.

"The director's car? You're really unlucky. You didn't even ask me to give you a ride, you're too polite!" Xia Junshan said with a hint of schadenfreude.

"I was just five minutes late coming downstairs, and you were gone!" Wang Yue rolled his eyes and walked inside.

"Do you want to take my car and pick up Tuan Tuan first?" Xia Junshan asked awkwardly, trying to help.

"No need, my wife picked her up today!" Wang Yue waved his hand without looking back, his back as handsome as ever.

"That's really convenient for you!" Xia Junshan was still waiting outside for school to end, while Wang Yue had already gone inside.

He walked to the office area and found Yuan Yuan and Tuan Tuan hunched over a small table, one doing homework and the other looking at a picture book. The children were still so well-behaved.

He motioned for Yuan Yuan to watch her younger brother. Little Yuan Yuan rolled her eyes at Wang Yue, saying, "I've been watching him for a while, why do you need to tell me?"

Wang Yue gave her a thumbs-up and then walked towards his Guan Guan, feeling a sense of nervousness akin to returning home after a long absence.

Ruan Wan seemed to sense his presence. Seeing it was Wang Yue, she smiled and said, "Honey, sit there and rest for a bit. I'll be done soon!"

Everything was just like in So Young. Every time he came home, he would tell Wang Yue to rest, accompanied by this sentence.

"You're busy, don't mind me!" Wang Yue pulled up a chair and sat not far away, watching Ruan Wan, unable to get enough of her.

Ruan Wan, while grading homework, noticed that Wang Yue seemed unusually clingy today and couldn't help but speed up her grading.

The family of four returned to their small home, a cozy two-bedroom apartment. Upon arriving home, Ruan Wan went to the kitchen to get busy. Wang Yue, instead of watching the children like before, leaned against the kitchen doorframe and simply watched Ruan Wan work, marveling at how good life was with her.

That night, life was exceptionally harmonious. Anyway, Wang Yue had work the next day and was still lamenting that although the body was his own, the difference between different age groups was too great. He should exercise more.
