Chapter 389 - 389 389 Justifying the Name and the Reason
?Chapter 389: Chapter 389: Justifying the Name and the Reason Chapter 389: Chapter 389: Justifying the Name and the Reason Several junior waiters immediately surrounded Wang Yan and asked, “Boss! What’s the happy occasion? Tell us so we can be happy too!” Their hearts itched with curiosity not knowing the reason.
Wang Yan laughed heartily, but he really wasn’t going to tell them.
“Get back to work, everyone. The reason I’m happy is because my wife is beautiful and that makes me happy. Isn’t that obvious?” he bluffed.
Bai Yue glared at him; this guy was getting slicker by the day.
But Wang Yan was genuinely good to her, and she believed that.
“Sheesh! Boss, you’ve got some thick skin!”
Laughed at, weren’t you?
Wang Yan wasn’t upset; being happy wasn’t a crime, and he simply chose not to share.
He knew he couldn’t let the village family planning officials find out about this, or else they’d come after them.
He wouldn’t trouble himself with discomfort.
He secretly watched Bai Yue with joy.
During the afternoon break, Wang Yan hurried out to make a phone call at the post office.
Liu Baoguo was at the village committee when he received the call, surprised. Why would Wang Yan call him all of a sudden?
“Shitou, what’s up?”
Liu Baoguo was worried. Could something have happened to his daughter, Liu Hong?
“Nothing, nothing!” Wang Yan laughed, his teeth barely visible.
“What are you giggling about? Speak up; phone calls are expensive,” Liu Baoguo said, half-amused.
So you’re just calling for fun, huh?
“Is something wrong with my daughter, Liu Hong? If something’s happened, you can’t keep it from me,” Liu Baoguo still felt uneasy. Although his daughter occasionally sent letters claiming she was doing well and had even become a boss, he just couldn’t be at ease.
Being a boss isn’t easy for a young girl like her.
He feared she might only share the good news while suffering in silence.
“Uncle Baoguo, there’s really nothing wrong with Liu Hong; she’s doing great! I actually needed to ask you something!” Wang Yan decided to cut to the chase before he gave Liu Baoguo a real scare.
“You have something to ask? What is it? Tell me!” Liu Baoguo finally felt somewhat relieved.
As long as his daughter wasn’t in any trouble, that was fine.
“Uncle, Yue and I are having a baby.”
Liu Baoguo was overjoyed, “You rascal, well done! Not even a year and you’ve got a kid on the way, that’s great news. You’re almost 40, and you’re finally going to be a father. It’s definitely good news. Let me tell you, it’s hard on a woman to be pregnant. You must take good care of Bai Yue. Otherwise, you’d be doing a disservice to your wife,” he advised Wang Yan, speaking from experience.
“Uncle, I’ll definitely treat Bai Yue well. It’s just that we’ve both been worried about this family planning issue,” Wang Yan confessed.
“Oh, that matter? Don’t you worry. Although the national policy advocates for one child per couple, there are exceptions, like Bai Yue being in her second marriage so she can have another child with you. That’s allowed by national regulations, so go ahead and have the baby without worry. Besides, I’ll arrange a birth permit for you in the village. With that permit, you’ll be able to have the child there,” Liu Baoguo quickly offered a solution, suggesting that even if they weren’t allowed to, they should still have the child; at worst, it would just be a matter of registering the birth.
This was Wang Yan’s first child after all.
“Uncle, really? If that’s true, Bai Yue and I will be relieved. We’ve been scared, planning to hide at home once her belly grows bigger so she wouldn’t have to go out. If it’s as you say, we can be boldly confident. Uncle, I’m leaving the worrying bits to you then, please help us get that birth permit,” Wang Yan finally felt completely at ease.
His child was finally legitimate.
