My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 280: Keep Saturday Free



Unbeknownst to Rong Yan, a silent undercurrent churned quietly.

Following the broadcast of her show on the AQ platform, she stood out among the forty-some trainees, her popularity soaring. Whether there were more haters or fans, at least her visibility had increased, and Rong Yan had truly started to gain some fame.

Interviews and various programs began to increase as well.

Her schedule started to become busier. Even though she had told Estelle in advance to keep her evenings free, she still ended up busy as a top, often finishing work at nine or ten o’clock at night.

As she became busier, the time she spent with Little Baby also decreased.

Even if Little Baby didn’t say anything, Rong Yan could feel his mood hadn’t been high lately. Every night when she returned, Little Baby would be holed up in his room, busy with who knows what.

After being busy for half a month straight, Rong Yan finally managed to complete most of the work Estelle had committed her to, and before Estelle could schedule her for new tasks, Rong Yan interrupted her, “Estelle, I want to keep Saturday free. Can you not arrange any schedule for me that day?”

“Hmm? You have something on?” It was the perfect time to strike while the iron was hot. Others wished they could split a day in two to gain more popularity, and yet she was thinking of taking a day off?

Rong Yan felt awkward for a moment, “It’s not that I have something to do…”

She took a deep breath and confessed honestly, “I want to take a day off to spend some time with my family. I’ve been too busy recently and haven’t had the time to accompany them properly.”

Estelle immediately understood, putting down her notebook, her sharp and efficient eyes resting on her as she said calmly, “Normally at this time, we wouldn’t allow for leave unless it’s for something very special…”

“Estelle, I…”

She really wanted a day off! She had already planned to take Little Baby to the amusement park for a full day. Although she hadn’t mentioned this to Little Baby yet, she had been working overtime these past few days precisely to finish her work early and keep the next day free.

Estelle gave her a look that was both teasing and reproachful, “I hadn’t even finished speaking, what’s the rush? Do I really look like Zhou Bapi who wields a little whip to bully the laborers?”

Hearing Estelle’s response, Rong Yan knew she had succeeded. She immediately flashed a big smile and flattered, “No, not at all. Where else could you find such an attractive Zhou Bapi?”

“You,” Estelle said, amused into a smile, and resignedly added, “Is one day enough?”

“It’s enough,” Rong Yan replied. She just wanted to take Little Baby to the amusement park; one day was plenty.

Estelle said, “Alright. I’ll keep your schedule open for tomorrow! But make sure your phone is on at all times, just in case I need to contact you for anything.”

Rong Yan promptly agreed, “I know, guaranteed 24-hour accessibility!”

“Okay, then I’ll reschedule your upcoming work for the day after tomorrow,” Estelle said teasingly. “Since you’ve finished work for today, do you want to go have dinner with us, or head back home first?”

In the past half a month, Rong Yan’s popularity had skyrocketed, and the company had started assembling a professional team for her; she now had four people working for her.

Rong Yan, embarrassed by the teasing, said, “I might have to head back first. Estelle, where are you guys eating tonight? Have you booked a place? I know a Western restaurant that’s quite good—if you like, I can book a table, and it’ll be my treat tonight!”

“That’s fine,” Estelle replied, accepting the offer without any hesitation, in a buoyant spirit, “Then I’ll thank the BOSS on behalf of my assistants.”

“Pfft,” Rong Yan was taken aback by her sudden promotion to BOSS, and after a few more witty exchanges, she glanced at the time, waved goodbye to Estelle, “Estelle, I’m off then. See you the day after tomorrow.”

“Go ahead.”
