"Ah? Are you talking about that lecherous woman?" Kim Kai was not happy. "Why should I go? It's obvious that she has bad intentions towards me!"
"That's why I let you go." Kim Teri said calmly.
"..." Kim Kai looked at her in disbelief, "Are you going to sacrifice even your brother's looks for the sake of business?"
Kim Teri said: "You should be thankful that you still have your looks to sacrifice, otherwise what value would you have?"
Kim Kai: "..."
He really couldn't believe that humanity had been destroyed to this extent.
He looked at Mingyu who was sitting quietly beside him and said, "Cousin, is Tian Xia Restaurant still hiring?"
Mingyu thought for a moment and said, "We are hiring waiters, but we have very high requirements, and we only want women."
"...Are there no other positions?"
"Cleaner?"
Kim Kai: "..."
With his status, he should have been at least a lobby manager in the past!
"Okay, I understand. There is no brotherly love in today's society." He pretended to be sad, and then said to Mingyu, "I heard that you told grandpa that you would go back to City A after staying for a month?"
"Yeah." Mingyu didn't know where he heard it from, but he didn't want to hide it. Kim Kai looked at him and blinked "Why? I'm waiting for you to kill Kim Bum and Kim Teri like a dark horse."
"Although Tian xia Restaurant is not as big as the Kim family's company, there are still a lot of things to do every day. I can't leave for too long."
Kim Ksi said: "I don't think you can leave your girlfriend for too long."
Mingyu: "..."
So why did he insist that he had a girlfriend?
Although this is true.
"I don't want to stay here anymore, how about I go back with you..."
Kim Kai was interrupted by Kim Teri before he finished speaking: "Go back and try. Do you believe that Dad will freeze all your assets?"
Kim Kai: "..."
"Sorry I'm late." Kim Bum walked in quickly from outside the conference room, followed by several managers and his assistants. Kim Kai leaned close to Kim Teri's ear and whispered, "My eldest cousin is more stylish."
Kim Teri stared at him without saying anything. Kim Bum put down the laptop in his hand and sat down on the chair: "Then let's get started."
After a full day of work, Kim Bum, Kim Teri and others had to continue to work on other things, and only Kim returned to the hotel. He changed out of his suit and called Kim Manman: "Manman, have you had dinner?"
Kim Manman said in a baby voice: "Not yet, Manman is waiting for uncle to come back."
Mingyu smiled and said, "Then Manman, come to your uncle's room now. Your uncle is going to cook dinner." The suites they lived in all had kitchens. Although no one else used them much, they were very convenient for Mingyu.
"Wow, then Manman, come over now."
The nanny who was taking care of kim Manman sent her to Mingyu's room and then left. Kim Manman curiously lay at the kitchen door and looked at Mingyu: "Uncle, what are you doing?"
"Uncle is making Manman's favorite steamed egg."
"Wow, great!"
Mingyu smiled. Lisa also particularly liked the steamed eggs he made, almost more than the egg fried rice. "If Manman is hungry, have some cake first. I bought it when my uncle came back."
"No, Manman wants to save her stomach for the food made by little uncle."
Mingyu turned around and smiled at her: "Then Manman, go to the living room and play first. It will be done soon."
"Okay." Kim Manman lay at the door and looked at him for a while, then asked him, "Why is Dad not back when Uncle is back?"
Mingyu paused while beating the eggs and said to her, "Because Dad is busy, little uncle is lazy."
Kim Manman frowned and said, "Can't Dad be lazy too?"
Mingyu put down the bowl, squatted beside Kim Manman and rubbed her hair: "It's wrong to be lazy. Dad works hard to buy more things for Manman."
"Manman doesn't want daddy to buy me things. Manman wants daddy to take me out to play." Kim Manman's eyes were almost red as she spoke. "All the children in kindergarten have parents, but Manman doesn't."
Mingyu pursed his lips slightly, not knowing how to comfort her. In the end, he could only hug her and said, "Manman, be good, when dad comes back, uncle will help you educate him, okay?"
"Okay." Jiang Manman said with sobs.
Mingyu wiped her tears and said, "Manman, don't cry. You will be able to eat delicious food soon."
"Yeah!" Kim Manman responded, and went to the living room to wait for food. Mingyu looked at her from behind and thought she looked a lot like Sunshine and Tangerine
I wonder if Lisa has eaten now?
With this question in mind, Mingyu sent a video invitation to Lisa after he finished cooking. The innocent Lisa accepted it without any preparation "Mr. Kim, what's the matter? Do you miss me?"
Mingyu turned the camera around to focus on the freshly cooked food and said to Lisa, "I just cooked. I don't know if you've had dinner yet, so I'm sending this to you."
Lisa: "..."
Damn it, break up with me, you scumbag!
"My niece also really likes this steamed egg. Your tastes are quite similar."
Lisa: "..."
"Are you trying to piss me off to death and inherit my manicure, Koko?" Lisa felt that she was really kind for not breaking up with him immediately. "I've decided to ignore you for 72 hours. Bye!"
Just as she was about to turn off the video, she heard a cute little girl's voice: "Uncle, is the meal ready?"
Mingyu turned around and the camera also captured the tiny Kim Manman. Kim Manman saw the phone he was holding and came over curiously "Uncle, who are you video chatting with?"
"Ahhh, is this your little niece? She's so cute!" Lisa excitedly shouted on the other side of the screen, "Oh my god, what a cute little loli."
Kim Manman blinked at her, then looked up at Mingyu: "Uncle, is this sister your girlfriend?"
Mingyu saw that he was caught by Kim Manman, so he didn't hide it from her: "Well, do you want to say hello to your sister?"
Kim Manman waved at the camera: "Hello, sister."
Lisa suddenly felt healed. This morning, there was a girl older than Kim Manman on the subway who called her auntie! She was only eighteen years old, but she actually called her auntie! How abominable!
"Hello, Manman." She looked at Kim Manman lovingly.
Kim Manman giggled "My uncle's girlfriend is very beautiful, as beautiful as my mother."
Lisa now really wants a daughter like Kim Manman, she is so healing!
"Manman is cute too!" Lisa praised her back without reservation, "We girls are just so cute!"
Mingyu: "..."
He suppressed the twitching of his mouth and said to Kim Manman, "Manman, go to the living room and wait for me."
"good."
Kim Manman left obediently. Mingyu turned the camera back to himself and looked at Lisa with a half-smile: "How dare you say that? You are two rounds bigger than Manman."
Lisa: "..."
"Do you really think Manman is cute?" Mingyu asked.
"Yeah." Lisa replied in a cold tone.
Mingyu smiled and said, "I think she's cute too. It would be great if we could have a daughter as cute as her."
Upon hearing Mingyu's words, Lisa's face flushed. "Isn't it kind of you to say that right after I said I'll be ignoring you for 72 hours?"
Mingyu: "..."
"Well then, goodbye." Lisa resolutely closed the video call and exhaled.
She felt rather warm.
"Woof woof!" Sunshine pranced in circles around her, while Tangerine meowed loudly.
Lisa: "..."
There were already two sons in the family! As for daughters... we'll discuss them later.
While having dinner with Kim Man Man, Mingyu sent a few videos to Lisa, trying to figure out if the other side really was going to ignore him.
The other side really did ignore him.
Mingyu: "..."
That evening, Kim Man Man stayed with Mingyu, playing until she passed out. Kim Mingyu picked her up gently and took her back to Kim Bum's room.
Just about the time he was looking for his cousin, Kim Bum returned to the hotel. Mingyu walked over with Kim Man Man and told him: "Man Man stayed with me tonight, and is asleep now."
Mingyu nodded and took Kim Man Man into his arms. "Thank you for taking care of her."
Mingyu said: "I know that you're very busy at work and that I'm butting in here, but Man Man is your daughter. You should spend more time with her."
It wasn't the first time Kim Bumhad heard this. He did want to spend more time with Man Man, but he merely replied helplessly, "You know how the current situation of the Kim family is. I'm also hoping to give Man Man better living conditions. "
"She's already living better than many of her peers, but she still isn't as happy as they are. Are you sure you really know what she needs?"
Kim Bum frowned, but didn't say anything. He knew that Man Man wanted him to spend more time with her, but if he didn't fight for his ambitions, he would become the stepping stone for another. And when that happened, he would no longer have a place in the Kim family.
"Today, Man Man told me that all the other kids in kindergarten had moms and dads, except herself."
Kim Bum felt an ache in his heart. No one loved his own daughter more than he. She had once had a mother to accompany her, but now...
"I've bothered you today." Holding his daughter, Kim Bum entered his own room and closed the door.
A few days later, Kim Man Man rushed to find Mingyu, her entire face lit up. "Uncle, Uncle, Daddy said that he would take me to the amusement park tomorrow!"
Mingyu was quite surprised. How did his eldest cousin suddenly get his priorities straight?
Kim Man Man was tugging onto his hand. "Having Uncle educate Daddy really worked!"
Mingyu couldn't help but laugh. He scratched Kim Man Man's hair and asked, "Daddy is going out to play with Man Man. Is Man Man happy?"
"Man Man told Daddy that she would ask uncle to come play together!"
"Do I need to go too?"
"Mm!"
As the two were chatting, Kim Bum walked over. He nodded to Mingyu and said, "You should come along. Thank you for having looked after Man Man this whole time."
"Uncle, please come~"
Mingyu smiled and pinched her face. "Alright, uncle and daddy will both go with you."
That Saturday was probably Kim Man Man's happiest day since she arrived at S City. Kim Bum bought a new dress for her and helped her put it on. Kim Man Man took a photo of it in front of the mirror: "The dress Daddy chose is so pretty! Man Man wants to show it to Mummy."
Kim Bum picked her up, smiling, and said, "Don't boast. Uncle is waiting for us."
"Then let's go!"
By the time Kim Bum left the hotel with Kim Man Man in his arms, Mingyu had already been waiting in the car for a while. When he saw them coming out, he said to Lisa, "Man Man and my cousin are here. I'll talk to you tonight."
"Alright, say hello to Man Man for me~"
As soon as he hung up, the door was opened by Kim Man Man: "Uncle, uncle, does my new dress look nice?"
Mingyu said: "Very nice! Did your Daddy buy it?"
"Yeah." Kim Man Man sat next to him with a happy smile and asked, "Is uncle talking to his girlfriend again?"
Mingyu had a girlfriend? Kim Bum side-eyed him silently, but said nothing. Mingyu kept quiet, but Kim Man Man told her father brightly, "Daddy, Man Man has seen uncle's girlfriend! She's as pretty as Mummy."
Mingyu: "..."
Already gossiping at such an early age, Man Man? Fortunately, Kim Bum was an adult. Instead of prying further, he patted his daughter on her little head, "Alright, sit down quickly. Don't you still want to go to the amusement park?"
"Yes!" Kim Man Man was successfully distracted and quickly settled in.
Kim Man Man was ecstatic all the way to the amusement park. When they arrived, she clamoured to take a photo with her father. Mingyu worked hard as their photographer, feeling like perhaps this amusement park invitation was merely to have someone to hold the camera.
There were so many people in the amusement park that Saturday that they had to queue up for every ride, but Kim Man Man was in high spirits the whole time. While lining up for the merry-go-round, Kim Bum couldn't help but sigh: "I haven't ridden this since I was a kid. I didn't expect to have to ride it even as an old man."
"..." Mingyu felt the exact same way.
Even on the merry-go-round, Mingyu was still responsible for taking photos. Lisa had previously soundly criticized his photography, so he had no idea where Man Man's unfounded confidence in his camera technique came from.
When he later told Lisa about this, she replied, "Maybe her father's even worse."
Mingyu: "..."
While Man Man's nanny took her to the bathroom, Mingyu and Kim Bum found a bench outside to sit on. Mingyu took a drink of water and heard Kim Bum asking, "Are you ready to return to A City soon?"
"Yeah." To himself, Mingyu thought - it's impossible to keep a secret in this family.
Kim Bum said: "When you return, can you bring Man Man back with you?"
Mingyu was quite stunned. "Are you sending Man Man back?"
"It'll only get busier over here. I just don't have the time to spend with her, and once you're gone, there'll be no one at all who will play with her."
Thinking about it, Mingyu asked, "Is that why you brought her here to the amusement park today?"
"It is."
Mingyu's lips thinned as he pressed them together. He could already imagine Man Man's devastation upon hearing this news. "Since you're so busy, why not send her to her mother?"
Kim Bum said: "Her mother now lives abroad and is newly remarried. Man Man would definitely be unhappy there as well."
Mingyu wanted to say that she was already unhappy here, but changed his words. "What about you? Don't you plan on getting married again?"
"Not for the foreseeable future."
Mingyu said nothing. Kim Man Man quickly finished her trip to the bathroom, and called to them for the next ride.
They played in the amusement park until it got dark. Kim Bum's assistant had driven another car over to pick him up, and was already waiting outside.
"Man Man, you and uncle will be going back to the hotel first. Dad still has things to do." Kim Bum bent over his daughter. Kim Man Man pouted, but Daddy had already spent all day with her and she was quite a sensible child. "Daddy, come back early."
"Yeah." Kim Bum kissed her tender, pink face, then stepped into his assistant's car.
"Manager Kim , Kim Kai and Kim Teri went to see the senior manager today," his assistant reported as the car started.
Kim Bum snorted coldly before replying, "I've already anticipated that happening. I had you invite Wang Dong to dinner earlier. Has he arrived yet?"
"Our people have already left to pick him up."
"Good."
The assistant hesitated before asking: "Manager Kim, will we be able to pull Kim Mingyu to our side?"
Kim Bum said, "It would be great if we could, but he doesn't seem to intend to."
The assistant glanced at him, but didn't say anything.
At the gate to the amusement park, Kim Man Man was still staring in the direction of the car driving away. Mingyu picked her up and said, "Man Man, let's go back to the hotel."
"Okay......"
Although they had already had dinner in the amusement park, Mingyu could sense that his niece was feeling a little down, and made some treats to coax her out of her dispirited mood. Kim Man Man did indeed cheer up when she saw the food. Since Mingyu was going through the photos taken that day, Lisa volunteered to send a video request.
"How are you still eating?" Lisa felt rather depressed. Why are you rubbing it in my face like this?
Mingyu said: "For Man Man."
When Kim Man Man heard her name, she finally looked up from her bowl and called sweetly to Lisa on the screen, "Auntie!"
Lisa: "........."
Wasn't I still an older sister a few days ago? How did I become an auntie today?! After she finished roaring inside, she realized that there was a deeper meaning to the word than she had thought.
"Mingyu, what kinds of things have you been teaching Man Man?!"
Kim Man Man said "My kindergarten teacher taught me that. The teacher said that my uncle's wife should be called my aunt."
Lisa: "..."
Mingyu coughed and said: ""So I am cleared, right?"
"It's inexcusable! Who told Manman that I'm your wife?"
Kim Man Man giggled: "Man Man figured it out herself."
Lisa: "..."
Mingyu: "..."
Man Man really was very gossipy.
"Woof!" Sunshine found Lisa currently making a video call to Mingyu, and stuck his face in front of the camera.
"Wow, a dog!" Kim Man Man looked at Sunshine curiously, and Lisa held up Tangerine for her to see as well. Like a child, Kim Man Man was completely fascinated by the two animals, and interacted with them excitedly across the screen.
Mingyu watched them all fondly for a little while. Then, looking up at Lisa, he said, "I'll be back soon."
