Ye Tianxin could not help but smile when she saw the comments.

Summer’sEnd was a godsend. She had helped them at the right time without even realizing it.

Su Shopping Mall’s profits plummeted when the video about Su Dahai’s comment was leaked.

“Tianxin, do you want to rest for a while?”

Fang Nan noticed that Ye Tianxin had not rested since afternoon. She looked exhausted.

Ye Tianxin gave a dismissive wave with her hand. “I’m fine, I can still continue with my work.”

Although she felt a little tired, she knew she could not rest just because she was tired.

Since she was pregnant now, it made sense for her to rest while she was in the office. Still, she did not want the others to say that she was not hired based on her merits. It did not seem appropriate for her to rest while the rest of her colleagues were hard at work. She would be inviting gossip by doing that.

Moreover, Ye Tianxin was also aware that society was generally harsher on women. Most men preferred their women to stay at home. To them, a woman’s primary duty was to be a good wife and mother. They had to wash and cook for the family. They expected women to take care of all the chores at home so their men did not have to worry about anything at home. Women were expected to give birth to children, bring up children, and take care of their parents all by themselves.

These men also wanted women in the workforce to work as hard as men. These men seemed to have forgotten that women were also human.

As times changed, however, these men began to think differently. Still, this change in thought was very slow. Most people still held on to the traditional belief that a woman should be at home.

A man would be paid more than a woman for the same work. Women encountered more obstacles when looking for a job. Most people were unwilling to hire pregnant women or new mothers.

All the above reasons gave Ye Tianxin a mission. As a woman herself, these reasons motivated Ye Tianxin to strive to raise the social status of women. She had to lead by example.

If she was given special treatment because she was a pregnant woman and was allowed to rest while her colleagues were working, many people would be displeased. They would talk behind her back and agree that Ye Tianxin had special privileges.

“All right then. Let me know if you need anything.”

Ye Tianxin flipped through her notes, reading the multitude of information. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was always busy, which meant they’d be even busier in times like these.

There were many divisions within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so the departments had to work with each other.

Ye Tianxin was busy, but it was a good thing for her. Work made her more confident and satisfied.

At 6 p.m., Fang Nan and another colleague went to the canteen and pack some dinner for the colleagues.

“Tianxin, you’re now pregnant. You should eat more.”

“Thank you.”

Ye Tianxin thanked Fang Nan gratefully. Her lunch box was different from the others.

The employees at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had a good practice of bringing their own lunch boxes to work. They would not need to use disposable containers or plastic bags if they brought their own lunch boxes from home. This would reduce the amount of waste they produced since they could recycle their lunch boxes.

“I’ll bring my own lunch box tomorrow.”

Fang Nan opened his own stainless steel lunchbox and said earnestly, “Director Chen was the one who started this.”

“It’s a very good habit.”

Ye Tianxin did not eat too much during lunch, so she made up for it by eating more for dinner at night.

After dinner, she continued to study her notes.

Fang Nan washed some fruits for Ye Tianxin and placed them on her table.

“Tianxin, how do you think this matter will be resolved in the end?”

Of course, Fang Nan did not know the matter would be handled eventually. Deep down, she was wishing for karma to occur.
