Chapter 1005: Did She Not Want to Spend New Year’s Eve With Him That Much?
Chi Xia came back from the weighing machine and asked Su Chen, “”What else do you want to eat?”
Su Chen glanced at Chi Xia and pointed at the potatoes beside him. Chi Xia then lowered her head and picked up two potatoes.
Su Chen asked, ” Why did you only buy two? ”
“It’s almost the New Year. You have to go home. It’ll be a waste if you can’t finish all the food you bought.” Chi Xia said casually.
“How did you know I was going home for the New Year?”
Su Chen’s words stunned Chi Xia. She looked up at him. ” Are you going to spend the New Year here? Aren’t you going home to celebrate the new year with your family?”
Then, Chi Xia remembered that Su Chen and his mother were not on good terms.
But even if they weren’t, they couldn’t not be together during the New Year.
Chi Xia could already guess the result when she saw Su Chen’s pale face.
He didn’t even spend the holidays with his family, so he must be alone during the New Year.
Sometimes, she felt that this man was only glamorous on the surface and did not even have the most basic kinship.
Chi Xia was looking down at the dishes when she heard the man beside her say, “”When are you coming home?”
Chi Xia had wanted to tell Su Chen about this, but since he had mentioned it, she said directly, “”Young Master Su, the school is on holiday. When will you give me a holiday?” My mom keeps calling me to rush me back to buy New Year’s goods with her. ”
Hearing this, Su Chen’s eyes darkened and he said coldly, “”You can go back now.”
Such a straightforward answer stunned Chi Xia. A hint of joy flashed across her eyes. Before she could savor it, she heard the man’s voice again, “” Five thousand a day. You can take a few days off and deduct a few days ‘worth of money. ”
Chi Xia was speechless.
5,000 a day! How could he be such a scammer!
One week of leave was equivalent to a month’s salary?
Chi Xia frowned. ” Young Master Su, do you mean that you won’t give me a break for the New Year? You want me to spend the new year with you?”
“If you want, I don’t mind.” Su Chen said.
“Of course not!” Chi Xia replied subconsciously. After that, she noticed that Su Chen’s expression had changed. It was obvious that he was annoyed by her direct rejection.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes. Did this woman really not want to be with him?
She couldn’t wait to leave him as soon as possible!
Su Chen pursed his lips and remained silent. Chi Xia smiled and said, “” Young Master Su, you have to spend the New Year with your family. If I don’t go home, my parents will break my legs. ” Actually, there was no need to explain to him at all. However, it was already very pitiful that he did not have any relatives to accompany him during the new year. If he was despised by her again, his self-esteem would be severely damaged. It was better to give him some face.
Chi Xia’s words eased Su Chen’s expression. He said calmly, “”Your school has two months of annual leave. You’ve taken a year’s salary from me, and you want me to give you leave according to your school’s holiday? You’re working for me as a nanny, so you have to rest according to your normal working days. So, from the 30th of December to the 7th of the first month, I’ll give you a week off.”
Su Chen’s words made Chi Xia’s mood plummet.
Was there a mistake? She was still a student. She didn’t want to go home during the holidays and had to wait until the 30th of December?
As expected, this man’s money was really not that easy to earn!
Chi Xia’s little face was wrinkled as she said in a gentle tone, “”Young Master Su, you really don’t have much leave this time. Can you give me a few more days? I really have to go back early for the new year. Why don’t I go back early and come back a few days earlier after the new year?”
She could only use this kind of delaying tactic. After she got home, she would not care if his words were useful or not.
