Chapter 220
Meng Chuan stared at the figures in the distance, his heart filled with regret.
Wouldn’t it have been better to just stay a humble little secretary?
Why did I have to put myself through this?
He struggled to move, but his legs were still weak. Even sitting up proved difficult.
The thought that he might have to remain at the Big Boss’s side as his secretary for who knew how many years sent a chill from the depths of his heart through his entire body.
He gazed helplessly up at the sky.
Is it too late to quit now?
More than ten minutes later, Meng Chuan dragged his feeble legs toward the exit of the Amusement Park, one shaky step at a time.
If I don’t run now, when will I?
Meng Chuan decided that until he finished everything currently on his plate, he absolutely would not see the boss, not even once!
Other capitalists only squeezed labor out of their employees.
His boss squeezed away what little remained of his lifespan!
Sitting in a chair, Zhang Bei watched the staggering figure at the entrance of the Amusement Park and nearly burst out laughing.
His secretary really was too innocent. Zhang Bei was already devising a plan to torment him regularly.
“Boss Zhang, I need your help again!”
The voice beside him made Zhang Bei turn his head. Chi Fu stood there with a little girl, looking embarrassed.
What else could he do? He was desperate too!
He was an older bachelor with two little porcelain dolls to care for.
On top of that, he had to leave on missions from time to time.
“You need me to watch the kid?”
Chi Fu nodded. “This time, it might take three days.”
Zhang Bei lowered his head and glanced at the child. “What about the other one?”
“She’s at school. This one isn’t old enough to start school yet.”
“I’ll have my employees look after her for a few days. It won’t be a problem.”
“Thank you, Boss Zhang!”
The two of them had known each other for quite a while, and Chi Fu was a frequent visitor to the Amusement Park.
Besides, the two old professors at the Amusement Park dreamed of having a granddaughter.
Zhang Bei wouldn’t need to worry about a thing.
However, his attention was clearly focused on something else. “What kind of mission will take that long?”
Chi Fu gave a bitter smile. “Criminal investigators rescued a group of female college students who’d been trafficked to Northern Myanmar. Their psychological issues are too severe.”
“If nothing else works, bring them here. Fight poison with poison.”
Chi Fu promptly changed the subject. “I’ll be going, then. You get back to work, Boss!”
This place worked wonders for people under immense pressure, but these female college students were different.
Their current condition was complicated. Chi Fu was going to meet with a group of psychological experts to work out a treatment plan.
Chi Fu hurried out of the Amusement Park, and Zhang Bei turned his attention to the little one.
What was her name again?
Zhang Bei thought carefully. It seemed to have the character for “moon” in it.
Forget it. Judging by her little braids, he would call her Xiao Cuihua!
Zhang ‘Naming Genius’ Bei reached out and picked Xiao Cuihua up.
“Let’s go find some big sisters for you to play with!”
“Thank you, Uncle!”
Her soft, sweet voice rang in his ear, and Zhang Bei’s expression turned solemn.
“Call me Big Brother!”
“You’re Uncle!”
“Why?”
“Uncle Chi told me to call you that!”
Zhang Bei narrowed his eyes and added another entry to the ledger of grudges in his heart.
He made a round of the attractions, but all the employees were busy. After all, having only two people operate each attraction was already the bare minimum.
After giving it some thought, Zhang Bei simply carried Xiao Cuihua into the Ski Resort.
The porcelain-doll-like little girl immediately attracted countless gazes.
Stars practically appeared in You Bai’s eyes. “The evil boss has finally set his sights on a little girl!”
Zhang Bei: “???”
“The evil boss has already torn two sisters apart!”
“The evil boss has finally revealed his true colors! Let the beautiful-girl squad rescue Xiaoyue!”
Zhang Bei’s expression stiffened. “If there’s something wrong with you, go get treated!”
Xiao Cuihua tilted her head and studied the group of big sisters in front of her.
“You’re not pretty girls at all!”
You Bai smiled brightly. “Why aren’t we pretty girls?”
Xiao Cuihua blinked her large eyes. “They’re all big sisters. You’re an auntie!”
A breeze brushed past, carrying away a single tear.
You Bai gritted her teeth as she stared at Xiao Cuihua.
“Why are they big sisters while I’m an auntie?”
Xiao Cuihua nibbled on her finger. “Anyone with boobs is an auntie. Anyone without them is a big sister!”
The moment she finished speaking, the air fell silent.
Holding Xiao Cuihua, Zhang Bei quietly backed away two steps.
Hah. Women!
Hah. A whole group of women!
Zhang Bei glanced at the visitors in the amusement park. There were plenty of them, so asking You Bai to babysit right now wasn’t realistic.
If the Coaching Team was down even one person, they would be swamped.
“Get back to work. This kid will be staying here for a few days!”
“Yes, sir!”
Leaving the suddenly fired-up employees behind, Zhang Bei carried Xiao Cuihua toward the water park.
With so many employees at the amusement park, there had to be at least one young woman who could watch a child!
Unfortunately, Zhang Bei’s hopes were quickly dashed.
These days, the Amusement Park’s fame was no longer limited to the surrounding provinces. It was gaining nationwide recognition.
Visitors from every corner of the country poured in without end. Yet despite the sheer size of the Amusement Park, there wasn’t a single employee free to babysit.
When Zhang Bei saw Professor Wei hurrying past with a cart, he finally let out a long sigh. “Is there anything you want to do?”
“Uncle, can you teach me how to swim?”
“Sure!”
With a smile, Zhang Bei carried Xiao Cuihua all the way into the Swimming Pool.
“Boss!”
A startled voice rang out beside him.
Shi Ang stared wide-eyed at Xiao Cuihua. “You even have a kid now?”
“She’s not mine.”
“I knew it. There’s no way someone this adorable could’ve come from you.”
Some people’s mouths simply ran faster than their brains.
The instant those words left his mouth, Shi Ang went deathly pale.
“No, Boss, wait! Let me come up with an excuse!”
Zhang Bei’s murderous gaze pierced straight into Shi Ang’s soul.
The death stare!
“I’ll give you ten seconds. Either go to Passage 0 yourself, or I’ll send you there.”
Shi Ang made his decision in record time and sprinted toward Passage 0.
At least if he went in himself, he could prepare first. If he moved fast enough, the things in the water wouldn’t be able to catch him.
But if the boss threw him in, there was no telling what might happen.
Cong Hongdou was standing nearby as well, her eyes never leaving Xiao Cuihua.
She was too adorable!
Cong Hongdou wanted to scoop her up and take her home!
Her maiden heart could barely take it!
“Find her a swimsuit that fits and teach her how to swim.”
“Of course, Boss!”
“Thank you, big sister!”
Cong Hongdou eagerly took Xiao Cuihua from him, her eyes curving into delighted crescents at the girl’s soft, sweet voice.
Zhang Bei watched the woman and child walk away, then fell into thought.
Should he tell Cong Hongdou how this little girl distinguished big sisters from aunties?
After considering it, Zhang Bei decided to keep the secret to himself.
What if Cong Hongdou got upset and refused to watch the kid? Wouldn’t the job fall right back on him?
As a qualified capitalist, Zhang Bei would never allow that to happen.
Now that someone else was watching the child, Zhang Bei brought over his own setup.
A lounge chair, a folding table, a teapot, and a teacup.
Perfect. He was all set!
