    Chapter 20: Mr. Gong's Home Visit

    "Hmm, you're quite good at math," Gong Xin Yi said with a slight curve on his lips.

    Leng Xueyue narrowed her eyes. Was this a compliment? It felt more like an insult. Such basic arithmetic, even the four-year-olds in her family knew.

    "Thanks for the compliment. My hands hurt, I'm taking a day off tomorrow!" Leng Xueyue said indignantly.

    "Granted!" Gong Xin Yi's reply was crisp.

    He intentionally made Leng Xueyue massage his feet a few extra times, hoping she would hurt her hands and ask for a day off.

    Once Leng Xueyue took a day off, he would use the opportunity to visit her home.

    He was determined to see who the other six freeloaders in Leng Xueyue's family really were.

    Leng Xueyue didn't expect Gong Xin Yi to agree so readily to her leave request, feeling somewhat uneasy.

    It's not wise to stay here any longer!

    "So...can I go home now?" Leng Xueyue extended her swollen hands. "Look, my hands are already injured. I can't mop the floor or massage feet..."

    "You may leave," Gong Xin Yi said, gesturing towards his assistant Chen Yu, "Take her home!"

    "Take me? No, no, no, I can go by myself."

    Saying this, she grabbed her bag and made a quick exit.

    Joking? Having Gong Xin Yi's assistant send her off would be like revealing her base of operations.

    "Wait, your clothes..." Wang Li hurried to fetch the clothes Gong Xin Yi had bought for Leng Xueyue, but by the time she returned, Leng Xueyue was already gone.

    Even though Leng Xueyue had said she would accept the clothes, without Gong Xin Yi's permission, how could she dare to keep them?

    "Deliver them to her home tomorrow!" Gong Xin Yi instructed, pointing at the clothes.

    "Oh!" Wang Li felt a bit disappointed.

    "We'll go together at 8 a.m. tomorrow," Gong Xin Yi added.

    "Really?" Wang Li could hardly believe her ears. "You mean, you and I will visit Leng Xueyue's home together?"

    Gong Xin Yi nodded. "She's injured, and as her employer, it's our duty to care for our employees."

    "Mr. Gong, you're so kind." Wang Li's voice trembled with excitement.

    She was already planning what to wear and how to do her makeup tomorrow to catch Gong Xin Yi's attention.

    At the hostel.

    Jin Yu was watching TV at the bar when she saw Leng Xueyue return in her cleaning uniform, surprised she remarked, "You're back? Is this your work uniform? It's so ugly! And it doesn't fit at all, look how baggy it is, you could fit two of you in there..."

    "Large size is breezy, keeps you cool!" Leng Xueyue retorted, lying back on the sofa, repeating what Gong Xin Yi had said.

    Jin Yu, noticing Leng Xueyue's poor mood, asked with concern, "Why are you back so early? You didn't quit, did you?"

    "No, I finished the work, and the boss let me leave early. Jin Sister, are the kids asleep?"

    "They just went to bed, be quiet so you don't wake them up."

    "Thanks, you've worked hard!" Leng Xueyue said, sitting up wearily.

    At that moment, she received a call from Wang Li.

    "Xueyue, I have something to tell you. Gong Xin Yi is planning a home visit to your place at 8 a.m. tomorrow. I'll be going with him, so you need to prepare."

    "What?!"

    Leng Xueyue was completely flustered, bouncing up nervously.

    Gong Xin Yi is coming to her house!

    Would this expose the fact that she secretly had Gong Xin Yi's child?

    No, she absolutely cannot let Gong Xin Yi come here.

    "Sister Wang, please tell him my home is not convenient for visitors, ask him not to come..."

    "Leng Xueyue, are you joking? He's our boss, the head of Gong's Corporation. Who dares to disobey his decision?"

    "Then... then tell him I'll be returning to my hometown tomorrow, it's not convenient for a home visit."

    "Sorry, I can't do that!" Wang Li hung up the phone directly.

    "Damn that child's father, why does he keep lingering? What's the point of a home visit now? Could he suspect she secretly had a child by the Gong family?"

    Leng Xiyue was driven to the brink of madness. What should she do?
