Chapter 184- Legendary rule

-Visiting Zhi Hei's workplace with the kids-

Wei Wei and Na Na recently turned 6 years old. It was a school holiday and the kids stayed home. Originally, Zhi Hei planned to go outside with Shi Xue and their kids for a picnic or somewhere fun, but he had an urgent meeting to attend so the plan was cancelled. While he was stuck in a 5 hour meeting with other shareholders, Shi Xue was trying to comfort their children's disappointment. As much as Zhi Hei wished to be out with his family in such great weather, he is unfortunately stuck here listening to stock reports and dealing with ignorant clients. He massaged the area between his furrowed brows to diminish traces of annoyance from his expression. Every time a vibration sound buzzed from Shen Qi's pocket, he knew it was either a missed call or message from his wife or kids. Finally, after 3 hours of listening to the employees presentation, the shareholders decided to go on a break.

As soon as he and Shen Qi left the room, he checked the missed calls and messages in his phone. When he turned on the screen, he saw 60 unread messages and 2 missed calls. He sighed and quickly skimmed through the messages before making a call to Shi Xue.

Some of the messages were as follows:

"Daddy! Na na is a good girl today. I drank a cup of warm milk that mommy gave me. I didn't like the taste of it, but daddy said if I'm a good girl, then we will go play today! Daddy said so!"

"Daddy! Wei Wei too! I also drank the milk and ate all the carrots from lunch! You said you'll teach me how to play tennis today!"

"Daddy! Mommy just told me that you two once fought over the amount of work you bring home so she said 'Between work and me. Which do you choose?' and daddy answered, 'you.' so so.. between work and Na Na. Who do you choose? If you text back, then it will be work. If not, it will be Na Na. You have 5 seconds to answer. No answer, then it is Na Na. That means daddy will come play today!"

"Daddy! You told me that men should keep their promises. If you can't keep your promise, then how could we do that?"

"Darling, I've got the kids under control don't worry and work. They'll be fine later! Good luck on your meeting!"

"Daddy! It's Na Na. Mommy says that you are working to earn money to support the family. But Na Na wants daddy more than money. I don't need money, I only need daddy to spend time with Na Na."

There were too many messages so only the sweet and caring messages caught Zhi Hei's eyes. When he read the text of Na Na choosing him over money, he smiled and dialed Shi Xue's number.

"Hello? Darling? Are you done with the meeting?"

"No. We are having a break. Uh, I left in a hurry this morning. I forgot to bring a very important document that you must bring to me in the next hour. You can bring the kids with you too."

"huh? You sure you want me to bring them?"

"Yep. I promised to spend time with them today. Bring them with you."

"Alright. Which document is it?"

"Uhhh.. its in a yellow envelope on top of my study desk."

"Okay~ We will see you soon."

Shi Xue went to the study room to get the document he needed. When she entered, she saw the yellow envelope that he described on his desk.

"Found it!" she smiled as she held the document in her hands.

'Hmm? This stain...'

She remembered that a day ago, their kids painted a family portrait and gave it to them as a present. When she put the paintings away in a yellow envelope, her fingers had a bit of paint from touching We Wei and Na Na's hands so the envelope had her fingerprint on it.

'This envelope....hmm..' she curiously opened the envelope.

"Hahahaha hubby you would've never guessed that my fingerprint would expose you. You actually didn't need any documents. Only wanted family time hmm?" she smiled and slipped the paintings back into the envelope.

"Wei Wei~ Na Na~ Did the two of you get dressed yet? Daddy is waiting for us!"

Soon, hurried footsteps could be heard throughout the hallway. The two of them ran excitedly to her and hugged her legs.

"Mommy ! Mommy! Let's go~~ we're ready!!" both of them breathed deeply.

She bent down and patted their chest, "Calm down a bit. Wait until you two could breathe properly first before we head out okay? Daddy won't run away."

After they settled their breaths, the trio went to Huang corps to see Zhi Hei. It was an unplanned trip so nobody in the company was informed about their arrival. When they entered the company, a newly hired worker didn't know that Shi Xue was Zhi Hei's wife so she spoke in an unfriendly manner.

"Excuse me Ma'am, this is not a hotel where you can just enter with your kids however you wish. You need to check in with the counter and after we allow you in, that's when you can go. Without our permission, you can't!"

"Oh? Is there such a rule? I never knew that."

Staff: "Hah, of course an outsider like you wouldn't know that. Who did you come to visit today? I don't think you're here to look for a job."

Shi Xue tilted her eyebrows with great interest, "Huang Zhi Hei."

Staff: "Hah, many people come in saying they wish to see our president. What makes you think based on your looks and the two kids you have with you would make our president see you? I've seen plentiful women like you before. Our president does not have the time to see walk in's. Please schedule an appointment first. The next appointment is in 3 years. You can wait till then. Bye."

She smirked, "Do you know who I am?"

Staff: "Who cares who you are? This is my job. And women like you are like jinxes after our president."

Na Na and Wei Wei were angry with the words they were hearing.

Na Na pulled Shi Xue's hands, "Mommy, who is this old lady? She dared to call mommy bad words. Is she stupid?"

Shi Xue bent down, "Na Na, even though people are rude to us, this doesn't mean we should act rude. Your daddy will handle her later. No need for us to do anything."

Wei Wei smiled, "Mommy, this lady applied for the wrong job. She shouldn't be greeting customers at all. Bad service."

Staff: "You two rascals dared be so rude to me. Hah, like children like parents. Being raised like wild animals, your parents mustn't be better off than you two. Leave! Leave immediately before I call for security."

Shi Xue narrowed her eyes and stared coldly at the staff sending shivers down her spine, "You think you can say whatever you want just because you claim it is your 'job'? You may be rude and I may look like I am taking your rudeness. I didn't want to make it hard for someone like you who is new to your post, but you dared call my children 'rascals' and compare them to wild animals? You must be tired of your job."

Staff: "Hah? Are you going to report me to the manager? Pffft, you think just from you and your children's words, I'll get fired? At most, I'll receive a verbal warning."

Shi Xue said in a warning tone, "We'll see about that. You have one last chance. Apologize."

The staff looked away and refused to say a word. Zhi Hei was waiting in his room for Shi Xue and their kids arrival. After half an hour and not receiving even a message from her, he decided to call and find out what's taking them so long. Shi Xue smiled when she saw the caller ID on her phone. She rubbed Na Na and Wei Wei's head before answering.

"Hello?"

"Where are you right now? Almost here?"

"we're at the lobby."

"ohh, then you'll be up soon. I'll have my assistant prepare juice and tea."

"Before that, are you busy right now?"

"No, why? We are on our lunch break."

"Good. Come downstairs."

"Huh?"

"Just do it. Before, I thought you were busy so I didn't want to interrupt you over a small matter like this, but it seems like this worker here is running some rotten bad luck."

"I'll be right down."

3 minutes later, Zhi Hei arrived at the lobby. When the elevator door opened, Wei Wei and Na Na ran to his embrace.

"mmmmm, my Wei Wei and Na Na, did you miss daddy? Daddy missed you so much!"

Both of them nodded their head and buried their faces in his chest.

"so? Apology." Shi Xue's strict tone echoed in the lobby.

"What's wrong?" Zhi Hei held their children's hands as he walked to his wife.

"P..president Huang!"

Zhi Hei bent down and smiled after he felt his daughter pulling his hand, "what's wrong?"

"Daddy, daddy. That old lady over there was being mean to mommy and us earlier. Mommy got mad from something this mean lady said."

"Oh? don't worry, daddy will see who dares to be mean to any of you."

Wei Wei added, "She called us rascals and said that we had bad manners. She also said we were being raised like wild animals and that you and mommy aren't better off."

Zhi Hei frowned and rubbed their heads before standing up and facing the staff. "Apologize to my children and wife right now."

Staff: "I..I was only doing my job. They just went to the elevator and ignored the front desk. I didn't mean to say what I said. If I knew that she was your wife then I wouldn't have done all that. Please give me another chance. I'm very sorry."

Shi Xue smirked, "So you mean if I wasn't his wife, then it would've been alright with you and your rude attitude? That will only cause ruckus between clients and our company. Tell me, which part of your service is even considered passable for customer service hmm?"

Staff: "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!"

Zhi Hei: "You're fired."

After that, he took Shi Xue and his two buns to his room. On their way to his office, many employees were shocked to see the president holding two kids with his wife by his side. He never smiled or showed much expressions whenever he was at his office. Some females bit their lips as they witnessed the mighty CEO smiling happily and talking to his children. Before Zhi Hei entered his office, he turned around and got everyone's attention.

"Everyone! This is my wife Shi Xue, and my two children. From now on, anyone who sees them will have to greet them and treat them with respect. If anyone dares to be rude or is ill mannered to any of them, you will be immediately fired no matter what position you are at in this company. Understand? I will have my secretary type up a memo and it will be distributed everywhere to everyone. "

"Yes!" everyone nodded and chanted.

Ever since that day, even when Zhi Hei is present, people must greet his wife, and their kids first before him. This is the legendary survival rule in the company.
