Knowing Fu Lingyue would arrive, Wan Yue sat opposite Sean and her parents.Jiang Shengting fastened a bib on Tang Xinbao, who whined,
“Eat eat!Baby hungry!”
Jiang Shengting glanced at Damon.“Professor Fu hasn’t arrived…”
“Waaah!” Tang Xinbao pretended to cry.
Van Yue took a deep breath; her mother’s behavior was infuriating.
A waiter approached.“Mr. Fu called; he’s delayed and asked you to begin without him.”
Damon told the waiter, “Serve the food.”
Zhou Zhou noticed Timmy had a small bowl, but she didn’t.Tang Xinbao had one too. Her bowl had been taken again.She sighed; small bowls weren’t filling.
The food arrived.Timmy and Zhou Zhou were served chicken and salmon. Sean cut Timmy’s chicken into bite–sized pieces.Tang Xinbao wanted hers cut too.
“I can’t refuse you anything!” Jiang Shengting cut her chicken.
Timmy exclaimed, “Sean, you’re so good to me! No one ever cuts my chicken like this,”
Zhou Zhou corrected him,“Timmy, you’ve forgotten? Mommy cuts our chicken too.” Timmy insisted, “Sean cuts it best!!”
Sean raised her juice.“Let’s congratulate Wan Yue on winning the ALI competition! You’re famous now!”
Jiang Shengting scolded Wan Yue, “You won, appeared on CCTV, but didn’t thank your parents.”
Wan Yue smiled.“Are you suggesting I thank you for kicking me and Zhou Zhou out?”
Jiang Shengting was startled, glancing at Damon.Damon frowned; was she asking for help?She’d softened since agreeing to dinner.Her pride prevented a direct plea, so she was subtly seeking his intervention.
Jiang Shengting quickly said, “You left on your own accord! We didn’t kick you out!”
Tang Xinbao added, “Sister, you left with Zhou Zhou. Waaah! Baby missed you!Baby called you so. many times!”
Jiang Shengting lamented, “Wan Yue, you only rejoined us at eighteen and weren’t close. We called you so much, but you blocked us.”
Wan Yue produced her phone.“Let me read your messages; I haven’t deleted any.”
Jiang Shengting realized his messages were filled with insults.“Okay, okay! Let’s eat. Family shouldn’t fight! You’re our daughter; Dad’s not good with words, but I always care for you!”
Wan Yue put down her phone. “I’ll read them after dinner.”
Jiang Shengting changed the subject.“Damon, you’re attending the Innovation Technology Summit, right?”
Damon grunted.
Jiang Shengting said smoothly, “Can I
go
with you?”

Damon replied indifferently, “I’m taking Wan Yue: 1is gaze fell on Wan Yuch worker- approached with a gift box.Damon said, without looking up,‘See if you like
Wan Yue opened the box to find a dress and a document.
“Next week, you’re accompanying me to the summit This is a custom dress, and this is Pu Corporation’s offer, along with the summit invitation,”
Wan Yue was surprised. “We were married for seven years, and you never took me to any events. What size is this dress?”
Damon frowned; he’d asked his assistant to order it based on Wan Yue’s measurements. He
dn’t specified which measurements,
Wan Yue had been like a decorative object, occupying the position of his wife. They hadn’t been intimate in a long time.He didn’t care if she’d gained or lost weight.
“The dress can be altered.”
He thought he’d been generous,
Wan Yue picked up the document.
“Fu Corporation wants me in the tech department?”
Damon said, “I want you as my personal secretary.”
She laughed.“Seven years as your unpaid housekeeper, and now you’ll pay me to continue?
His brow
furrowed.“You’ll be the most expensive housekeeper in Beijing!*
She smiled.“I have two words for you.”
He asked, “Accept? Or more money?”
“Idiot!”
Damon froze.His calm demeanor was shattered.
Jiang Wan Yue, you only have a bachelor’s degree,” he said coldly.“Winning a competition isn’t the same as leading a team.”
The shareholders wanted her as CTO.He knew her capabilities well.How could a housewife be Fu Corporation’s CTO?
Sean defended Damon, “Wan Yue, don’t insult him!”
Wan Yue smiled. “I’m stating facts!“She threw the box at Damon.“Keep it. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
. Tang Xinbao grabbed the dress.“Shengting, do I look better in this than Wan Yue?”
Jiang Shengting, focused on Damon, mumbled, “Yes, yes!”
Damon glared at Wan Yue.“You rejected Fu Corporation’s offer.Do you think you can find a better job?”

Wan Yue calmly sipped her soup.“I never

He pointed to the summit invitation.“Do you know how many businessmen want this invitation?” Jiang Shengting stared, realizing Damon intended to take Wan Yue to the summit.
He anged, “Wan Yue, accept! Don’t be ungrea Wan Yue calmly ate, ignoring them
Damon said, “Ten seconds”
She ignored him. He silently counted down,
“Jiang Wan Yue!! Jiang Shengring, slammed the table
“7,8…” Damon’s voice was icy,
Wan Yue, what are you doing? Are you being defiant Bang Shengring’s spinle flew This mashed potato is delicious,” Wan Yue shared her mashed potatoes with Zhou Zhou ignoring them both.
“()་”
Damon’s gaze fixed on Wan Yue. She was too proud, oblivious to what she was losing “Damon! Wan Yue will go to the summit with you!” Jiang Shengring accepted for her. Just apologize, and Dad will buy you ten dresses!”
“10!”
Wan Yue finally looked at him.
“I won’t be your accessory, nor will I be subservient to you!” she declared Damon, I’m not here for dinner.”
