Chapter 5 — Just got through the book and has a husband and children

Updated 10/08/2026 7 min read

I was exhausted, when I got home I didn't even have the strength to hug my baby. Uncle Kham finished cleaning up the assembled toys that the baby had thrown everywhere, stepped closer, bowed his head and gently kissed my hair. “Wife, what's going on?” Except for occasionally having to wear formal clothes to go out, most of the time he stays at home to take care of his children. Once a cold university male idol, now he exudes the gentle maturity of a "stay-at-home dad". Previously, he offered to help me arrange an internship, but I eloquently refused: I wanted to rely on my strength! But real life is... too harsh! "It's OK." I lay limp on the bed like a salty fish. Uncle Kham squeezed my shoulders for me, and the little girl also seriously clenched her fists and swung her legs for her mother. I raised my head, blinked, and glanced at his toned abs under his loose T-shirt - deadly sexy. I couldn't help but reach out and touch it. Really hands on. The mood immediately changed from gloomy to... bright sunshine. The next day, the company seemed to fall into a "red alert" state. The seniors who usually dress carelessly today are all wearing neat suits. I didn't understand what was going on, so I stopped by and asked my colleague in the business support department: "Sister, is there a special day today?" "The group's president is coming to inspect, this happens once in a hundred years. Several leaders have been present since early morning to wait." While speaking, a group of people dressed as elites entered the company. In the middle is a curly-haired woman, surrounded by everyone like bright stars in the sky, neatly dressed, with a sharp demeanor. “That, it's the president.” — the colleague lowered her voice and pointed. Several senior leaders in the company obsequiously followed behind, reporting as they walked. Not knowing what to talk about, the president's face immediately darkened, and the sound of high heels "clacking" echoed throughout the hallway. “Maybe someone flattered her and mentioned her son.” The colleague said with a gloating look. “What about her son?” — I'm genuinely curious. "Well..." She whispered mysteriously: "It's rumored that her son is gay. And the president has a bit old-fashioned thinking and can't accept that. So anyone who mentions her son is immediately hated." “Oh my god, it turns out there is such a thing…” I listened and watched the drama with extreme interest. Unexpectedly, the next person to be scolded... was me. During the meeting, manager Lam pointed at the plan, stared at the date on it and then mocked me in front of everyone: "Are you stupid? The stamp was already closed and then discovered that the date was written incorrectly. Do you know how much damage this causes to the company!?" Lately I've been handling a lot of plans, and I can't remember clearly whether I actually filled them in incorrectly or not. Reflexively, I bowed my head and apologized: "Sorry, I'll pay more attention next time." The Chairman was sitting in the center, his face stern, his eyes looking at me also showing dissatisfaction. Manager Lam pointed straight at my nose and scolded: "You're both negligent and incompetent, you can go see the human resources department tomorrow!" 15 I sighed and walked out of the meeting room. My colleague from the support department came to me: "Have you offended Mr. Lam lately?" I was stunned: "No?" "So why does he keep targeting me? Today when he threatened to fire me, I saw a gloating look on his face." I was startled exclaimed: "So... I was bullied at work!?" But what have I done to offend him? My mind was full of question marks, so I went to find him and ask him why. Lam Chi waved his hand impatiently: "It's your personal matter, don't come ask me." Before I could refute, I suddenly saw a familiar figure at the door. Lam Niem wore a pure white dress, walked lightly, carrying a lunch box straight to Lam Chi's desk. She even winked at me and smiled harmlessly: "Sister, are you happy these days? Working under me must not be pleasant, right?" All the colleagues around had the mentality of "watching the drama is the main thing", everyone understood what was going on, didn't say a word, just quietly watched. Feeling like I was isolated by the whole office, I left the company depressed after work. Uncle Kham was already waiting for me at the gate, a tall figure, holding his daughter in his arms, standing in the wind and smiling at me. He bowed his head and said to his daughter: "Mom, it's been hard today." The baby also followed suit and said seriously: "Mom, it's so hard!" My heart suddenly surged with a warm current, I rushed to hug father and son: "Hu hu hu..." Coming home with a husband, children, a warm bed - that damn job, I don't regret quitting! 16 On weekends, the human resources department does not work. I started looking into a new company to change jobs. Hearing the door open, I thought it was Uncle Kham coming home, so I didn't bother turning around and said: "Husband, go into the room to see if I'm awake." But my response was the sound of high heels clicking. I saw something was wrong, turned around and immediately faced the stunned eyes of the group's Chairman. “You… why are you at my son's house!?” It was as if I had been hit in the head with a stick: "Could it be that... you are...?" The bedroom door opened slightly, revealing a tiny head. “Mom, I think I hear grandma's voice.” “Grandma… grandma!?” The Chairman was even more shocked, hastily walked up to the child, looking at him with both joy and surprise: "Oh my god! This small nose, this small forehead - exactly like Uncle Kham when he was a child! The blue sky has eyes, it turns out... my son is not gay!!!" 17 On Monday, I still go to work as usual. Manager Lam knocked on my desk with a sarcastic tone: "Tieu Ha, why haven't you filed for resignation yet?" I couldn't take my eyes off the computer screen, curled my lips coldly: "Manager Lam, I won't take the initiative to quit my job, or should you kick me out?" "Kids these days are all about fixing the workplace and playing tricks to get compensation, right? I'm telling you, you're still on probation, the company fires you, so there's no need for compensation." “So tell me, I don't meet any of the company's standards?” He looked at me with eyes like a fool, as if the person who was scolded last week was not me. At that moment, a colleague from the support department walked in: "Everyone, please stop working for a moment ~ Today the president invited the whole company to afternoon tea!" Right after that, the president walked in, smiled and nodded to everyone. She has always been famous for being strict, and rarely has this kind of gentle attitude. Lam Chi immediately threw me aside and ran over to flatter me: "Is there anything fun happening to the Chairman recently?" The chairman glanced at him meaningfully: “There is indeed one thing.” “Ha ha, what good thing is that? Tell me Let us listen, so everyone can have fun." I stood up and saw the president walking straight towards me. Lam Chi pointed at me, frowned and said loudly: "Ah yes, Mr. Chairman, this intern is not reasonable and deliberately stays in the company..." Immediately after that - the Chairman patted my shoulder, smiled and introduced to the whole office: "My family has just welcomed a new member, please respectfully introduce to everyone - this is my future daughter-in-law, Chi Song. In the future, I hope everyone will pay attention and help.” “…Mom?!” I don't know who muttered a word first, then a round of applause rang out everywhere.

“Oh my god, congratulations! I have long seen that Ms. Chi Song is not an ordinary person! “That's right, that's right, looking at your appearance you know you're full of blessings. No wonder it's the president's family!” I turned my head to look - Manager Lam stood there petrified, his face drained of blood. “Lam Chi, what happened last week has been clearly investigated. Tieu Song basically never came into contact with that contract. Come here and explain to me.” His face was as red as a ripe gac, and in the end he could only whisper one word: "Yes..."

Before leaving, the president - who is also Uncle Kham's mother - Mrs. Nham also leaned into my ear and asked in a low voice: "Can I come visit you tonight?" That rotten boy, he hides love like a cat hides shit, opening his mouth is a complete shock!”
