Another bodyguard pinched him hard, which made the man who was so proud of himself come back to his senses. Cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. He lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look at Ning Chuchu’s expression.
Ning Chuchu was slightly startled. A hint of confusion appeared in her eyes, and then she shook her head helplessly and smiled.
She should have thought of it earlier. Since the hacker brother was introduced to her by Xie Jinqiu, these two well-trained and loyal bodyguards were naturally related to Xie Jinqiu.
Moreover, the attitude of these two bodyguards toward her could be described as extremely cautious and respectful. It would be impossible for them to be so considerate and attentive without someone’s instructions.
Ning Chuchu closed her eyes tiredly and thought with a bitter smile.
She had obviously been deliberately drawing a line between herself and Xie Jinqiu recently, and she wanted to return any benefit she got from him double, for fear that she would owe him too many favors, which would hinder her from making certain decisions in the future.
But why were she and Xie Jinqiu getting more and more involved?
Ning Chuchu sighed quietly.
Xie Jinqiu had indeed helped her a lot this time. She couldn’t just think that he was meddling in her affairs without conscience, so…
Ning Chuchu hesitated for a moment and then decisively said to the two bodyguards, “Lead the way. Let’s go eat first.”
The bodyguards were nervous and followed Ning Chuchu without saying a word, silently calculating in their hearts: How much salary would they be deducted if they accidentally gave Mr. Xie away?
On the way to the restaurant, Ning Chuchu took the time to call Xie Jinqiu.
Xie Jinqiu probably intended to help her silently behind the scenes and had no intention of ‘taking credit’ in front of her, but since Ning Chuchu already knew about it, she couldn’t just pretend to be stupid.
Xie Jinqiu answered the phone very quickly. It was so fast that Ning Chuchu heard his cold and magnetic voice in the blink of an eye.
“Hello?”
“Mr. Xie.”
Ning Chuchu calmed down and said politely and gently, “Thank you for your bodyguard. Sorry to trouble you.”
Xie Jinqiu was silent for a moment and asked, “Did you know?”
“Yeah.”
Ning Chuchu glanced at the two bodyguards’ tense backs and couldn’t help shaking her head with amusement.
She said softly, “They are very tight-lipped. I guessed it myself.”
In order to enhance the credibility of her words, she also made a joke, “After all, I didn’t give the hacker brother extra money. Why should he help me contact such professional bodyguards? It looks like it will cost a lot of money.”
As soon as Ning Chuchu finished speaking, the two bodyguards looked at each other excitedly, with unconcealable joy and touching on their faces.
With Miss Ning speaking for them, even if Mr. Xie could guess that they had let the cat out of the bag, he would not blame them anymore. After all, Miss Ning had spoken in person, so how could Mr. Xie not give her this face?
Sure enough, Xie Jinqiu’s cold voice carried a barely perceptible smile, “Well, I’ll give them a raise when they come back.”
Listening to Xie Jinqiu’s gentle voice, Ning Chuchu felt a little complicated for a while.
She had never thought before that she could joke with this cold and arrogant fiancé like a friend.
The Truth System has indeed brought great changes to her.
But now, Ning Chuchu would rather Xie Jinqiu didn’t see her at all like before, so she wouldn’t have to be so entangled…
Ning Chuchu’s upturned mouth corners slowly fell back, and after a moment, she whispered again, “Thank you.”
Xie Jinqiu was silent for a long time, “Don’t be polite to me.”
Hearing this, Ning Chuchu’s eyebrows twitched violently.
The deep meaning in Xie Jinqiu’s words, Ning Chuchu didn’t dare to think too deeply about it.
She quickly changed the subject, “I still have to thank you.”
Reminder~~~
TVCEO is still on promotion period. You can read it thru link below.
Synopsis:
It is said that you should not pick up men on the street, and this is absolutely true.
This was the only time in her life that Lin Qiao had a good conscience and did a good deed. She picked up an unconscious man on the roadside. As a result, she was thrown into the hospital by the man, who lost his balance, and lay in the hospital for three days and three nights.
After waking up, a CEO suddenly appeared in her head out of nowhere and taught her how to conquer himself in real life every day.
***
Su Zhengxing is a paranoid villain in a cliche story about a domineering boss. He killed himself in order to compete with the domineering male lead for the female lead. Before he died, he went back to three years ago.
The good news is that he has not met the female lead at this time; the bad news is that only his consciousness has come through.
In order to escape the ending of becoming a clown in the love game between the male and female leads, Su Zhengxing must get married as soon as possible and stay away from the plot!
***
Su Zhengxing: I am 187 cm tall, graduated from a prestigious school, and have both good character and appearance.
Lin Qiao: Not interested.
Su Zhengxing: I have no father, no mother, and no family conflicts. I have a house, a car, and a career.
Lin Qiao: Not interested.
Su Zhengxing: It will be for one year. I will give you 100 million after the task is completed.
Lin Qiao: Marry! Marry right now! Not to mention marriage, I can even have a ghost marriage with you, otherwise, I won’t feel at ease taking this money!
***
In order to get the 100 million and reach the pinnacle of life, Lin Qiao conscientiously learned how to conquer (twist) (grind) him in reality under the guidance of the CEO himself.
When the female lead arrived, Su Zhengxing taught her to ruin their first encounter.
Lin Qiao immediately took a cup of coffee and walked toward the scene.
Lin Qiao: Do you think I can ruin your meeting by pouring this cup of coffee on your heads?
Su Zhengxing: …
The female lead was injured and called for help. Su Zhengxing taught her that she must stop them because true friendship is revealed in times of trouble.
Lin Qiao: Got it! I’ve thrown your phone and clothes into the washing machine, and then called 120 for the female lead!
Su Zhengxing: …
The male lead and female lead broke up, and the female lead went thousands of miles away in grief. Su Zhengxing taught her not to let him chase her.
Lin Qiao shook the mineral water bottle in her hand.
Lin Qiao: Don’t worry! I just put laxatives in your water. You will definitely not be able to leave the toilet today!
Su Zhengxing: …Thank you.
***
According to the setting of the novel, Su Zhengxing is cold-blooded, ruthless, and inhuman before his awakening. He is the executioner feared by everyone in the Baitian Group. He is also a well-known psychopath in the industry.
He climbed step by step from the mud to the clouds. He drank ice for many years and had long been accustomed to hiding his heart under a thick wrap. He never thought that dripping water could penetrate the stone*, and someone actually broke into his heart.
Lin Qiao loves him, understands him, and knows all his emotions. She is the only one who will always move forward toward him no matter how many steps he takes back.
Su Zhengxing never believed in fate, but after meeting her, he was grateful for the arrangement of fate. He thought that all his luck in this life was probably used to meet her.
But it is impossible for someone in this world to be perfectly compatible with you. If there is, then she must be lying to you.
Su Zhengxing knew that Lin Qiao probably stayed with him for other purposes, but he didn’t care.
Since you want to lie, just lie for the rest of your life.
*滴水穿石, dīshuǐchuānshí: ripping water penetrates the stone (idiom); constant perseverance yields success / You can achieve your aim if you try hard without giving up. / Persistent effort overcomes any difficulty.
