Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 422

Christina worked in an advertising company.

It was not a giant one.

Besides planning advertisements for new products, its main business was to train Internet celebrities for live streaming.

Its workers were divided into two groups.

About 30 workers did normal nine to five jobs in the office, and hundreds of broadcasters focused on live streaming.

"Do you mean online games commentators that children are addicted to now?"

She finally got a real job with her perseverance.

All the members of the Hopkins family felt relieved.

She had been busy with job interviews for seven days.

Every day she came home, she was on the verge of breaking out.

They were worried about her.

Fortunately, she found a job.

However, Senior Mr.Hopkins was not satisfied with her new job, "It's not a proper job"

He thought that online games were harmful.

"Grandpa, the online game streamer is not as bad as you think.As long as I'm not addicted to them, it doesn’t matter.It's for entertainment.Being good at playing games can also make money.Moreover, E-sports has been incorporated in the Asian games."

Christina got up early to have breakfast with Senior Mr.Hopkins.

She told him more details about the new type of sport.

"Online game streamers are not included in the advertising company.It seems to focus on advertising products"

Christina didn't know much about it either.

"Most streamers go to the original place of the products, such as fruit forests in the mountains and wineries of special foreign wine.It is called live commerce.There are eating broadcasts, in which broadcasts jockeys eat in front of the cameras."

Senior Mr.Hopkins frowned, "Do you mean the audience watches them when the live streamers are eating?"

"It's boring! Who will watch other people eat? How disgraceful it is to play on the phone while eating!"

He couldn't understand the hobbies of modern young people.He thought that they kept monkeying around all day.

"Grandpa, it's a hobby too.” Christina thought for a moment, "Yesterday, a Japanese girl finished a large bucket of braised meat.It was very greasy! I didn't know how she did it."

She admired the girl from the bottom of her heart.

Many live streamers tried every means to gain more views.

But Senior Mr.Hopkins ignored her words and shouted, "It's a waste of time!"

The Hopkins family didn't allow such behavior.

He turned around and taught her a lesson, "No one is allowed to skip dinner and have midnight snacks in the kitchen.

Please behave yourselves well in the Hopkins family"

Christina wanted to explain that it was his grandson who liked to eat midnight snacks.

She was not the one to blame.

Although Senior Mr.Hopkins was rigid, he was just a paper tiger.

"Junior Mrs.Hopkins, Senior Mr.Hopkins has asked us to prepare some longevity noodles for you."

Nanny Fang brought a large bowl of longevity noodles to the table, smiling.

She quickly handed her chopsticks and a spoon.

"It's your first day of work.The noodles mean good luck.There is an egg in it too."

It wasn't her birthday.

Christina didn't know why he prepared longevity noodles and eggs for her.

Senior Mr.Hopkins made a cough and gave her a red envelope.

He said in a deep voice, "Don't bring the Hopkins family into disrepute."

There were no other auspicious words.

She didn't expect to receive the red envelope after finding a job.

Feeling that they were doting on her, Christina cracked a smile, "Thank you, grandpa"

Senior Mr.Hopkins answered with a snort.

He picked up his spoon and returned to his porridge.

Before Christina finished the longevity noodles, Patrick had just finished his exercises and returned from the indoor swimming pool in the West Garden.

He walked into the room, tall and straight.

She felt that no matter how tired Patrick was yesterday, he could always be energetic and graceful.

It should have something to do with the living habits of the Hopkins family.

Patrick would do morning exercises every day.

Senior Mr.Hopkins got up early.

He liked taking a walk in the Hopkins Villa or going to the small golf course in Western Garden.

Under the nurture of them, Christina gradually adapted to the self- disciplined lifestyle.

She was energetic every day.

Compared to those young people who stayed up playing on their phones, she preferred the healthy lifestyle of the Hopkins family.

Thinking of this, she decided not to compete with Senior Mr.Hopkins for the chance to take care of her children.

After all, he had made Patrick an outstanding man.

"Grandpa, please have more vegetables and milk in the morning."

She tried to please him, pushing the salad and milk to his side, "Grandpa, I wish you a long life.The future of your great-grandsons depends on you"

She believed that Senior Mr.Hopkins would make her children outstanding too.

He glared at her, "What do you mean? You want to play games and flinch from the responsibility of taking care of them, right?"

"Grandpa, it's not what I mean.I want to earn money for the family."

She talked back.

Patrick sat next to her and gave her a meaningful look, "Go home if you don't like it"

He reminded her gently.

She knew that Patrick would fire her boss if he made trouble for her.

She looked at him with a wry smile.Senior Mr.Hopkins raised his eyebrows and snorted, "Look at your working attitude.I think you are not serious at all."

Chandler felt the same way.

The economic market had been depressed recently, it was hard to find a good job.

It also meant that newcomers were likely to be bullied by old birds.

The Hopkins family wouldn't allow any family members to be bullied.

Chandler wouldn't allow his wife to be bullied, either.

He thought once she was tired a few months later, she would come back herself.

Patrick also thought the same way.

After receiving the news that Christina found a job, he immediately sent someone to investigate the background of the company.

He had thought that it must be a new one.

He didn't expect that her boss was his acquaintance.

"The legal person of that company is Charles's eldest brother.”

After dinner, Patrick told her something about the company.

His words surprised her.

Suddenly, she thought of something and became a little angry, "What are you doing? Do you think that Crystal and I are so bad? You have promised not to make use of your connections."

She didn't expect that it was the company owned by Shepherd's brother.

They walked towards the garage side by side.

At the sight of her angry face, Patrick tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ears and broke the silence, "It's a coincidence"

The Hopkins family didn't interfere, and the employment was just a coincidence.

"Really?" Christina asked suspiciously.

Although the Hopkins family had many investment companies, they wouldn't be concerned about all the new companies in A City.

He didn't expect to bump into an old acquaintance this time.

Patrick joked, "Charles was sad yesterday.He asked why Mrs.Hopkins chose his company?"

Last night, they went to the bar together.

The moment Charles knew that Christina had passed the interview of his brother's company, he went nearly mad with grief and drank deeply.

When Patrick and Christina arrived at the garage, the male servant respectfully opened the door of a Rolls-Royce.

Patrick got in and looked at her, saying, "Don't stand there.Come in."

"I'm going to a company in the Industrial Park in the western city.IP&G is in the east.They are the opposite.I want to drive there myself"

"I have time."

In IP&G, Patrick Hopkins could arrive whenever he wanted.

He was a little dissatisfied with the location of the company when he knew it.

They were the opposite.

Christina ignored his words.

She looked at a dozen famous cars in the garage and sighed, "Patrick, can you buy me an ordinary car?"

Although she had little work experience, she also knew that it was luxurious to drive them to work.She wanted to keep a low profile in her workplace.

After negotiating for a while, they decide to take a middle course.

Patrick would drive her to work, but he had to drop her off a hundred meters away from her company.

She stepped into the new company excitedly.

It only occupied one floor of the office building, which was very good for a new company.

The company didn’t have many employees.

There were more than 30 people in the office, most of whom were women.

They were very young, and the oldest one was less than 35 years old.

Crystal arrived right after Christina.

They looked at each other and smiled, full of joy.

The old employees were friendly.

After leading the two girls in, they briefly introduced the company's personnel and the recent major changes.

"During the first three days, you don't have to do anything in the office.After the new boss takes office, there will be some arrangements"

"Has the boss changed?" Christina asked the old employee.

"We don't know much.I heard that he was a friend of the former owner.Because of the company's restructuring, some of the old employees were dismissed.That's why we can recruit new ones"

The old employee frowned and sized up Christina.

It seemed that she was afraid of being dismissed by the new boss.

He immediately stopped and returned to his work.

"The legal person of the company is Charles's eldest brother"

Crystal got the news from Chandler.

Christina looked thoughtful.

Crystal guessed, "Could it be Patrick intervened in the operation of the company?"

"It's not Patrick"

Although feeling that it was typical of him, she knew that he would tell her if he had done something.

It seemed that Charles didn't know about the change of the legal person.

It was a good thing.

If it wasn't for the change, the company wouldn't have recruited new workers.

There was limited space, so everyone worked on the same floor.

On the first day, they didn't have much work.

During the lunch break, Christina walked around curiously.

She visited the Tea Room and fiddled with the coffee machine, murmuring, "I don't expect that there is such an expensive coffee machine in the small company"

Moreover, there were some ceramic cups, which cost about one thousand and five hundred dollars.

Christina guessed that gold was cheap for the new boss.

There was an office at the end of the right side.

Christina guessed it was the office of the boss because it was the biggest one.

The door stood ajar, so she saw two men chatting inside.

She immediately turned around and was about to leave.

"Why do you hire her? The big trouble."

Another man chuckled and said in a deep voice, "No, she is a lucky cat."
