I'm Secretly Married to a Big Shot Chapter 3016 - Mianmian Is Giving Birth?!
Previously on I'm Secretly Married to a Big Shot...
Mo Yesi doubted it deeply. “Does it truly not hurt to give birth after getting painkillers?”
Lu Rao replied, “Absolutely. If not, why would they call it painless childbirth? Naturally, some people aren't responsive to anesthesia and still feel pain even after the shot. Okay, stop fretting. If you're still anxious, why not head inside and check?”
“No thanks. Mianmian doesn't want me watching.” Mo Yesi looked toward the closed delivery room door before taking a seat. “I'll just wait here for her.”
“I'll keep you company.” Lu Rao settled down next to him.
Mo Yesi managed to relax somewhat. Realizing he hadn't notified the family yet, he pulled out his phone and dialed Madam Bai. Upon answering, Madam Bai's excitement made her voice tremble. “Mianmian is in labor?! I'll inform Old Madam right away—we're coming over at once!”
During Qiao Mianmian's pregnancy, Madam Bai had been staying at the Mo Residence.
Once he finished the call with her, Mo Yesi texted Qiao Chen: [Your sister is giving birth.]
Just seconds later, Qiao Chen's call came through.
Mo Yesi answered it.
“Brother-in-law, is my sister giving birth?” Qiao Chen had been conducting a meeting with the company's executives when Mo Yesi's WeChat arrived. He halted the session immediately and dialed back while heading to the elevator.
Qiao Chen stepped into the opening elevator doors. “Yeah, I'll head over now.”
After ending the call, the elevator doors nearly shut, but they were forced open once more. The company's special assistant appeared outside, clutching a pile of files, breathless. “Vice President, the meeting's still ongoing. How can you just leave?
“This session is crucial, you…”
Before he finished, a heavy, intimidating stare fixed on him.
Inside the elevator, all traces of youthful naivety had vanished. His aura now radiated steady sharpness. The striking man regarded him with commanding eyes and stated icily, “Tell the team to shift the meeting to tomorrow.”
“But…” The Special Assistant started to protest but caught the man's icy look and held his tongue.
“Understood, Vice President.” The Special Assistant remained outside as the doors slid shut. He lingered a moment longer before heading back to the conference room.
As the Special Assistant shared the rescheduling news, discontent rippled through the group.
“What's happening? It's a key meeting—how can he postpone it so casually?”
“The Vice President acts more and more laid-back. Doesn't the Chairman mind?”
The assistant exited the conference room without a flicker of emotion.
Eventually, the Chairman would pass the company to the Vice President. His current role was mere preparation. Within a year or two, he'd fully assume control. Though young, the Vice President proved highly competent, sealing major deals himself over the last couple of months. The Chairman felt immense pride in him, eager to commend rather than reproach.
This Vice President truly stood out.
Starting from scratch upon joining—knowing nothing and learning bit by bit—he'd made remarkable strides in under two years. His skills silenced the company's directors.
Those elders had opposed him at first, yet now, profiting handsomely from his efforts, none dared complain anymore.
