Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 1001: Are You Resentful Toward Me?

After sending Lan Shan back to her room to rest, Mrs. Zhang took out the items from the car trunk and started preparing food once she entered the house.

At noon, Mrs. Zhang prepared a large table of food, and Lan Jue also postponed his company matters to come back for lunch.

The family gathered around the table. Feeling cheerful, Lan Jue took out a bottle of wine and poured a glass for himself and Gong Shaoyu.

"You two finally decided to come back and visit. Your mom has been wondering aloud why you haven’t returned yet. I’ve been hearing it so much that my ears have calluses," Lan Jue said with a smile.

Shen Xiaya gave him a sideways glance, "What do you mean by I nag all day? Who is the one wandering late at night into Shanshan’s old room, dazing there for hours?"

"I was a bit busy recently, but I intend to stay here for a while and spend some quality time with you," Lan Shan said.

"And how about Shaoyu?"

Gong Shaoyu lowered his gaze, "Qiao Rui went to the UK for a business trip, and it’s hard to find someone to take over company matters temporarily."

Shen Xiaya and Lan Jue exchanged a glance.

"No worries, if work is busy, you can go back to handle it. Shanshan can stay here without concern, I’ll take care of her."

Lan Jue: "Exactly, her mom will be here, plus Xinluo is home too, Shanshan will definitely spend time with Xinluo. You don’t need to worry here. If there’s nobody to help you with work and you’re overwhelmed, just let me know. We’re family, it’s only right to lend a hand."

"Dad, how could I ever mind?"

...

After lunch, Lan Jue returned to the company, and Gong Shaoyu also spent the afternoon engaged in video meetings with a laptop.

Placing the milk on the table, she sat beside him, "Being this tired every day is not the solution. How about assigning someone else to the UK to let Qiao Rui come back to help you?"

Gong Group dealt with some troublesome elements a few months ago, and the situation is a bit unstable now, especially with Qiao Rui absent. Others are usually busy with their own tasks, bustling every day.

Gong Shaoyu wanted to stay home with her, but he truly couldn’t get away.

"Suddenly, I feel so envious of Xinluo, her husband is home every day, while I’m almost dying of boredom alone at home."

Gong Shaoyu furrowed his brow, "Are you blaming me?"

"No, I’m just wondering why you didn’t have more right-hand men back then, like Mo Han and Xu Kun. Now the company has no one, you used to shoulder everything yourself, and now there’s no time to rest."

He rubbed her head and laughed, "Do you think Xu Kun and Mo Han have it easy? The Beichen Family’s industry is no smaller than the Gong Family’s, they are also very tired. I’ve heard they often work late into the night. Considering how busy they are, you can imagine the extent of the Beichen Family’s operations in Hua Country. I’d love extra help too, but your husband lacks the connections, so no one wants to assist!"

"Shanshan, I’m sorry. Even though you’re pregnant, I can’t be there beside you."

Lan Shan shook her head, "It’s alright, I’m not that petty, I won’t mind."

Moreover, even though Gong Shaoyu is busy with work, he always personally accompanies her for her prenatal check-ups; no matter how busy those days are, he always sets aside his work.

Of course, the trade-off is staying busy until late.

The next day, Ye Xinluo had just woken up and hadn’t washed her face or brushed her teeth when she received Lan Shan’s call.

She rushed into the bathroom, quickly washed up, changed her clothes, and headed downstairs.
