We Are Meant To Be novel Chapter 209

“Alright, I got it,” Christy Zhong answered immediately. She had to remember this on her head firmly for later.

It was about time to get off work, and Justin’s teacher didn’t call her again. Perhaps the situation was not that bad, was it? Still, Christy was worried. So when she was cleaning James Feng’s desk, she quietly called his teachers and asked about it again. They assured her that he only had a fever, and there was nothing serious.

It was common for children to have a fever, but she was worried if his teachers there would not take good care of Justin. Besides, Justin was too small. If they could not treat him in time, and his fever turned out to be the symptom of other diseases, it would be more troublesome.

“Don’t worry, Ma’am. We will follow up about Justin with you. The teachers on the night shift will also take care of him,” they tried to comfort Christy.

However, as a mom, Christy could not stay still even after they consoled her. She replied to them sincerely: “Thank you, Miss. I’ll tell his other mom to go and look after him. And if there is any emergency, please call me as soon as possible.”

Also, how could Christy not respect Justin’s teachers? She would treat them with good manners because if the teachers were annoyed by her, Justin could get into trouble.

“It’s alright, just keep your phone standby,” but it seemed like they were so friendly to her.

Christy could hardly find a teacher with excellent etiquette, especially to teach a child like Justin. They adored him so much and felt that Justin would be successful in the future. Usually, teachers would naturally pay more attention to such students.

“Certainly. Thank you, and goodbye.” Christy hung up the call. Afterward, she called Wen once more. “Wen, please help me to look after Justin. And let me know if something happens.”

“Alright, now you are rest assured to do your work,” answered Wen generously to her.

James glared at Christy, and he was annoyed. She was slacking off too much. He wondered, when would Christy finish answering calls on her phone? She could not handle her life problems, yet refused Junyan Zhang’s help. What a weird person Christy was. Also, did she love that kid that much?

James also wondered, what would it be if he let Christy know that the twins of a boy and a girl were their children at times like this? No way, it was not the best time to do so anyway. Christy should not find out about it now, especially Anran could wake up anytime!

James did this so that when Anran got back, they could consider her status in his family. He did not care about other people’s feelings, but he would have some illusion whenever he faced Christy.

“Okay, then, I’ll hang up,” Christy was not feeling awkward with Wen. Wen knew her the best, and whatever she did, Wen could always understand her.

Shortly after she hung up, Christy glanced at James and became anxious. She quaked: “Mr. Feng, I’m sorry, I was asking my friend for a moment…” she suddenly paused and could not finish her words. How should Christy explain it to him? Perhaps, the more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make.

His brow knitted as he asked her: “What did you call me?”

James wondered how this woman could forget things easily? Wasn’t it just fine before? And what was going on? He was annoyed since Christy didn’t learn.

For him, a pretty girl could easily attract men, but it was only their appearance that was beautiful, no matter what. And they needed to get along with each other for a while before he could size her heart up.

Christy immediately realized that she did something wrong again and apologized right away, “I’m sorry, Brother James.”

They were the only ones left in the office, so the honorifics shouldn’t matter at this time! The nickname ‘Brother James’ was somewhat awkward for him, but if Christy called him ‘President Feng’ when they were alone, he felt they were not acquaintances.

James stood up and walked out as he spoke: “You should not deal with your personal affairs in front of me, and don’t screw up my work and life, understood?”

Christy felt James was a bit too much for stating that she ‘screwed him up’. Besides, why would her personal affairs screw him up? It should have nothing to do with him, shouldn’t it? But she could only speak in her head.

And she had no choice but to respond to him: “Alright, I’ll remember it.” Maybe, Christy was fated to do this for a long time, or her life.

As Christy followed James into his car and headed to Jing Lu’s villa, he reminded her once again: “Remember the main principles. Speak less, listen more, smile more, and have patience.”

Hey, wasn’t Christy always treating any of his family members with good manners? And she had no choice after all. That was how she should act.

“Okay, got it,” Christy responded to him thoughtfully.

Christy had wholly adapted to such things, and she would silently tolerate their attitudes to her no matter what! Life is all kinds of balance. If here, you can always find something on the other side.

Shortly after, they had arrived at Jing Lu’s villa. The children were playing in the garden outside, and as they saw James’s car from far away, they ran towards him excitedly.

Then, James carried them in his hands without any problem, but joked to them: “Papa’s children are getting so heavy that Papa can’t carry you two at once.”

They were very healthy, so it was natural for them not to be too skinny.

However, his little girl was obsessed with beauty ever since she was little. Hence, she protested: “Papa is wrong. I’m a girl, so I’m not fat!”

Nowadays, the beauty standard ‘slim equals beauty’ was rooted among people deeply! Even a kid like her felt she would look prettier if she were thinner.

Hearing this, James couldn’t help but laughed heartily, “my little Yue Er is not chubby. Even if she is, she is still lovely. Got it?”

Christy smiled a little after she heard James’s laughter. His laugh sure was contagious, and she could feel the happiness that radiated from the bottom of his heart.

She couldn’t help but daydream about him. How could his voice and laughter be so attractive?

“Oh, I see!” Weiyue Feng cutely replied to him.

And Juezun Feng complained to her, “you girls are really troublesome. What’s the matter with being fat or slim? It’s best to be healthy.”

Even at such a young age, they were very talkative!

As soon as the kids realized that Christy was around, they politely greeted her: “Hello, Auntie!”
