Oath of Love - Chapter 50

Chapter 50: I like Good Girls (2)

She wasn’t good at lying to people, nor did she know whether Gao Enying could notice it after she told her about the move.

The day just went by. At sunset, everyone walked back home in a hurry and Gao Enying should be back anytime. An Ran walked to the kitchen and put on an apron to cook dinner, and her phone rang.

It was Gao Enying.

“Mom.” An Ran answered the phone.

“Ranran, where are you?” She sounded delightful and not wanting to criticize her for not coming back last night.

An Ran was a little relieved. “I’m at home…I overworked last night and came back to sleep this morning.”

“Are you rested?”

“Yes. I’m in good spirits.” An Ran smiled. “I’m preparing dinner. When would you be back, Mom?”

“We’ll eat outside.” Gao Enying chuckled in the call. She seemed very happy.

An Ran noticed it and asked, “Did you get promoted, Mom? You sound happy.”

“You’ve got it right. You are my girl.” Gao Enying laughed.

“Seriously, mom, did you get promoted to departmental manager?” An Ran felt happy for her.

“Well, yes. They will announce it tonight…After all those years, your mom has become a woman who is paid a salary!”

Finally there was something good in life! An Ran felt happy for a second and sad and twitched her nose at the thought of all the troubles that Gao Enying had gone through while raising them.

“Ranran, are you crying? Silly girl. This is a happy thing. Don’t cry for it.”

“I know, mom, you’ve sacrificed a lot.”

“I didn’t. Now that you and your brother have grown up, I’m waiting for you to take care of me instead. I can’t count on Ah-ze but my daughter is truly sweet.

That’s why I don’t want to call him but to only bring you to the evening party tonight.”

“Me? May I come?” An Ran was surprised.

“Our boss is very reasonable. She allowed us to bring families. Hehe.” Gao Enying laughed and said, “Ranran, dress yourself up quickly. Let them all see my girl is prettier than stars.”

An Ran chuckled. “Alright. I’ll dress up quickly. Couldn’t dare to disgrace you, Mom.”

“Then you take a taxi to Sirloin Restaurant.”

“Wow, your boss is so generous. She invites you dinner at Sirloin. Mom you’ve been truly valued.”

The steak in Sirloin is the most expensive one in A City. It belonged to the second richest family, Family Gu, and was known for high price and delicacy of western food. Allegedly, it used only a small spot of beef to make steak and dispose of all the rest, which was why it cost so much.

“Not just your mom, but every employee in the company.”

An Ran was stoned and finally said, “Really rich.”

“It’s her boyfriend’s money. He was said to show up tonight. Alright, no more gossip. Take a taxi here quickly.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

An Ran hung up and rushed to dress herself up. She was no longer upset. She did a soft look, almost like a nude. But she did look more attractive.

Sirloin was decorated in European style. Lots of fancy cars parked in its square.

An Ran got down the taxi and tidied her dress, then she walked to the restaurant. It’s her first time in such a fancy place, so she couldn’t help feeling a little nervous.
