I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

The colleague gave Xiao Li a call, wanting to inquire about her situation.
The call connected but no one answered.

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but feel some hesitation in their hearts.
“Who is she staying with?”

“I heard that she stays in a rental flat alone, so we can’t contact her family either…”

“In that case, should we go and visit her?”

“Forget it, I feel that this is making a mountain out of a molehill…But it is true that she felt a little cold and uncomfortable yesterday.
She might be down with a cold.
After all, now that the weather is changing, it is common for many people to catch the flu.”

The woman who was seated beside Xiao Li in her workstation had a pale expression.
“Could it be that…”

“Don’t speak blindly.” Someone interrupted her.
“If the transmissible virus is true, why didn’t the doctors manage to discover anything when we went for a check-up? Captain Cui is from the capital.
We best just make peace with this matter.”

“Alright, let’s disperse.
Liu Dandan, if you are still worried, you can check on Xiao Li after work today.”

Liu Dandan was none other than the colleague that shared the same workstation as Xiao Li.

She nodded after hearing these and turned her attention back to the computer.

It was unknown why, but she suddenly felt that her throat was a little itchy.

It must be a psychological effect.

It couldn’t possibly be that transmissible disease.

(…I’ll visit Xiao Li after work!)

–

At this moment, Shen Ruojing just finished breakfast.

As for Chu Tianye and Chu Yu, they carried their school bags and went to school.

Chu Xiaomeng then looked at Shen Ruojing and Matriarch Chu…

Ever since the fall of the company stock price yesterday, Chu Cichen had been staying in the Chu Corporation to take the helm there.
He didn’t return last night.
Meanwhile, although Matriarch Chu was good at suppressing her emotions, all the servants at home knew that something had happened.
Hence, the current atmosphere in the Chu Family was very heavy.

Chu Xiaomeng could sense it.
Although she wanted to remind Shen Ruojing about her promise to bring her back to her maternal grandparents’ house, after some pondering, the sensible little fellow didn’t bring up this request.
She then silently went upstairs to read.

Shen Ruojing had indeed forgotten about this matter.

Right now, the most important thing was to rush the manufacturing process.
As long as the pill could be mass-produced, everyone could have a way of preventing and stopping the spread of the virus.

Hence, she decided to head to the pharmaceutical department of the Chu Corporation.

She then made a call to Chu Cichen.

The other party soon picked up and Chu Cichen’s hoarse voice rang out.
“What’s the matter?”

She could vaguely hear the sound of a dispute from the other end.
A shareholder was questioning Chu Cichen.
“CEO Chu, we are all filled with worries now, but you actually still have the mood to pick up a personal call! Did you hear what we were saying? Stop your plan immediately and don’t lie to the public by saying that there is a transmissible disease!”

For a time, Shen Ruojing didn’t say anything.

Chu Cichen also felt that things were a little noisy, so he only said two more words, “Wait a moment.”

After that, she heard the other party shouting.
“If you keep being so stubborn and refuse to change your decision, the Chu Corporation will be finished in your hand sooner or later! It is already such a huge joke now, yet you still don’t know when to stop! Our company’s net worth is no longer the first in Sea City!”

The voice grew softer and softer and lastly, a ‘bang’ could be heard.
The person who was shouting was probably chased away by Chu Cichen’s guards.

Only then did Chu Cichen continue.
“Okay, speak.”

“…” Shen Ruojing fell silent for a moment before speaking.
“Yesterday was the best time for prevention.
Sadly, the public didn’t believe us and didn’t manage to grasp the timing.
So, I guess that we have to continue to mass produce the heat dispersal pills.”

Chu Cichen trembled.
“H…heat dispersal pills?*”

“Hmm, dispersal, the same character as the ‘Ci’ in your name.
However, it doesn’t mean what you are thinking.” Shen Ruojing’s lips curled.

“…How many more?”

“At least 300,000.” Shen Ruojing sighed.
“The population in Sea City is too large.
If we fail to grasp the correct timing, I’m afraid we might have to manufacture even more in the future.”

“We will add 300,000 pills then,” Chu Cichen decisively said.

Shen Ruojing contemplated.
“Can I visit the pharmaceutical factory?”

“Naturally.
I’ll get Lu Cheng to bring you there.”

After hanging up, Chu Cichen directly allocated another 200 million to the pharmaceutical factory to get them to produce 300,000 pills.
Hearing about this, the shareholders who were concerned about the company’s remaining funds instantly exploded in anger once more.

#ChuCorporationWillSoonBeFacingBankruptcy# and other similar taglines went on trending again.

Shen Ruojing only knew about this because her mother Shen Qianhui called to tell her about it.

The [Masked Singers] had ended long ago.
Also, Bai Shanshan didn’t participate in the latter episodes due to Yan Zihao’s death.

After the program, her father Jing Zhen accepted the invitation to act in many dramas and went overseas.

Shen Qianhui also went with him.

At this moment, Shen Qianhui anxiously asked, “Jingjing, your father’s role this time is the #5 supporting character and the incentive isn’t bad.
Do you guys need money? Will the Chu Corporation really go bankrupt? Do you need me to transfer money over?”

“No need.”

Shen Ruojing calmly replied.

From the other end, Jing Zhen’s imposing and unhurried voice rang out.
“Didn’t I say that she wouldn’t want it?”

After hearing his tone, Shen Ruojing’s lips curled.
“Father, I heard that you are acting as an emperor this time around.
Would you have trouble falling out of character again?”

Jing Zhen.
“Impudent! This majesty wouldn’t have any trouble!”

“…”

After hanging up, Shen Ruojing discovered a group of people texting her on WeChat.

Some people like Shen Ruotong mocked her.
She was her cousin from the Shen Family.

Shen Ruotong texted.
“Heh, I heard that the Chu Family is going to be bankrupt soon.
After that, all of your movements will be restricted.
So what if our Shen Family’s inheritance was returned to your mother? At the very least, we won’t be restricted if we wish to fly first class.]

Shen Ruojing.
“?”

Why did she still have someone like Shen Ruotong in her contacts?

Hence, she replied.
[Do you have the money to fly first class?]

After sending the message, she directly blocked the other party.

On the other hand, some people were really worried about her.

Lu Hui.
[Boss, I heard that the Chu Corporation is about to be bankrupt.
What’s going on? You don’t have to be afraid.
Even if the Chu Corporation goes bankrupt, you can simply support him financially.
In any case, you still have the Z Corporation!]

Shen Ruojing did a quick read-through before heading onto WeiBo’s trending page again.
When she saw the reporters calculating the Chu Corporation’s assets, her gaze turned heavy.

Even if the heat dispersal pills couldn’t be sold, they still had to produce them.
If not, a few days later when the outbreak of the virus happened, the pills they had now would definitely not be enough.

Luckily, Chu Cichen trusted her and didn’t mind increasing the funds to continue with the production even in such a situation.

A surge of warmth surfaced from the depths of her heart.

–

In the afternoon, Liu Dandan had a half-an-hour break.

She somehow felt a little dizzy and a little cold.

Liu Dandan thought of Xiao Li for some reason and then called her.
However, no one picked up.

She felt a little guilty in her heart.

Hence, when everyone was having lunch, she decided to head to Xiao Li’s house.

For the sake of convenience, Xiao Li’s place was very near the company, so Liu Dandan soon arrived and knocked on the door.

But no one answered even after she had knocked for a long time.

Liu Dandan felt even more flustered now.
She began increasing the frequency of her knocks.
In the end, she simply found a locksmith to open the door.
After the door was opened, she rushed in immediately and saw Xiao Li lying on the floor…

[1] one of the raw characters of the heat dispersal pill contains a character of Chu Cichen’s name.
