Chen Rou grabbed the globe and placed it on the bedside table: "That's too dangerous, you can't."
The modern military landscape is extremely complex, and the staff teams of military-industrial complexes are composed of top talents from around the world. The collapse of the Soviet Union and the fact that aircraft carriers, even those that have to stay at the dock for twenty years before China can acquire them, are being closely watched. In the future, China will have to overcome numerous difficulties to obtain them in the South China Sea.
If Nie Zhao is not careful, he could be targeted and cause trouble in international trade. After all, he is just a businessman, and even if the Nie family does not collapse, those people can still put him in jail.
Although Chen Rou also coveted an aircraft carrier, she naturally valued Boss Nie's safety more.
She must protect him until the day he returns.
To be honest, his pride was incredibly strong. Chen Rou was almost asleep when he suddenly said, "It really can be three times."
He added, "Let me rest for a few days. I've been really tired these past few days."
...
The next evening, Chen Rou had to attend a cocktail party; she was quite busy during the day as well.
First, Li Xia passed the English test, and Nie Zhao helped her get an admission to the business school through a sponsorship. She can come to study soon. Chen Rou needs to go to Central to personally check out the house for her mother.
To be honest, she was quite unaccustomed to it, and even quite surprised.
Although she also lives in Hong Kong, her house is very large, with a front yard and back garden. Although she has visited many homes, she has never specifically visited a rental apartment in Central.
This is Han Yuzhu's house. She owns two floors, but she has turned them all into small cubicles, which she then handed over to the apartment management company for rent and revenue.
Chen Rou was worried that if the house was too big, Li Xia would feel burdened and wouldn't dare to live there, so she chose a 60-square-foot apartment. As soon as she entered, she saw the kitchen in the hallway and paused for a moment. Then, turning a corner, she saw a sofa and a TV facing her and paused again. The property manager smiled and said, "This is the living room. It's quite spacious and comfortable, isn't it?"
Then, opening another door, she said, "Isn't the super amazing master bedroom with its unbeatable ocean view incredible?"
There's a bedroom with only a place to take off your shoes when you enter. The other side of the bed is a glass window. The bed is quite big, 1.8 meters long, but won't Li Xia be scared if she lies on it and looks down?
The property manager then turned around and pushed open another door: "There's also a study here, which can be lived in as well. Isn't that amazing?"
There was indeed a desk in this room, but above the desk was a raised bed, and its width was at most three square meters. Chen Rou was amazed that a study and a bedroom could be used in a space of three square meters. The property manager opened the bathroom: "The bathroom also has a wet and dry separation."
It was only about 20 square meters of space, but it was cleverly designed to be a two-bedroom apartment. This was the first time Chen Rou had ever experienced subdivided flats and coffin-like rooms in Hong Kong.
She felt the house was a bit too small, but then she thought about how anxious Li Xia would be if she found out the rent. So she decided to let her and Xiao Jianmei, oh no, Juanzi, live here from now on.
Chen Juan, that was originally the name of the original owner's mother, who was also an outstanding and strong woman who broke out of the original owner's family.
Nie Zhao gave that name to Jianmei because he hoped she could break free from her original family and become a better version of herself. He also hoped that she could follow Li Xia and study hard in Hong Kong to make up for all the studies she had missed.
The dress was delivered to her door in the afternoon. Because of Chen Rou's recent preparations, the dress company sent two girls to serve her. As the saying goes, women understand women better, so the dress was taken care of in no time.
After all, she was making a public appearance, which meant she would be photographed by reporters, appear on television and in newspapers, and then she would have to get her makeup and hair done.
Nie Han also joined her, because the little girl is now the No.1 heir of the Nie family, and she will be standing between Chen Rou and Boss Nie during the photo session.
The little girl's dress didn't go as smoothly as Chen Rou's. Because she had been under a lot of stress lately, she had been eating a lot and had gained weight. The dress she chose was made of silk, which made her belly particularly noticeable. It was only thanks to a stylist's suggestion that she was given a mink shawl to cover her belly that the problem was concealed.
But when it came time to apply makeup, the makeup artist noticed that her skin was breaking out in pimples and peeling badly. There was a solution, though: first apply ice, then lotion, and wait until her skin was in slightly better condition before applying makeup.
Nie Han, who rarely attends big events, was a little exasperated: "I must have been angered by those two."
She added, "I don't know why Jiajun won't leave. He always stays at home and annoys me."
The stylist certainly wouldn't dare to scold the young master of the Nie family, so he could only laugh it off. Although Chen Rou was a little biased towards Nie Han, she had to tell the truth on this matter. She said, "It has nothing to do with the two of them. Your only problem is that you don't exercise."
Nie Han is rather lazy and has never liked exercising. She only relies on dieting to lose weight, so of course the results are not good.
The stylist was amazed by Chen Rou's skin. Although it wasn't very fair or thin, it was honey-colored, oily, and had extremely fine pores and was very elastic.
They would praise this to the skies even if it were an ordinary person, let alone the wife of the richest man. Nie Han thought about it and agreed: "I will start exercising tomorrow and go hiking and running with Jia Yu and Jia Jun."
Chen Rou quickly said, "No."
He further explained, "They are boys, so they are not afraid of the sun, but you are a girl, so sun protection is very important."
Don't be fooled by Chen Rou's continued fitness routine; she's not the same person she was in her past life. She can now venture into the desert and the sea without self-defense gear, and she often goes on training exercises dozens of kilometers at a time. Sunlight is a woman's biggest enemy, and although her skin was decent in her past life, it had aged considerably.
