Mr. Nie couldn't understand it. Seeing that his wife was too lazy to pay attention to him and instead closed her eyes, he made wild guesses: "He must be saying a lot of meaningless sweet words to Ahan every day, making Ahan believe that love can make her feel content."
Because Grandpa Er was nearby with A Yuan stacking blocks, Chen Rou had to turn to the side a little so he wouldn't hear.
She wanted to vindicate the senior, saying, "Boss, Song's ability to manage daily affairs is something most men in Hong Kong wouldn't even dare to dream of. Ah Han was able to stay for more than two months and even gained a lot of weight. There's only one reason: Song took very good care of her in terms of daily life."
Nie Zhao is incapable of taking care of himself. Even when he was studying and living a hard life, he still had a housekeeper and servants to accompany him. Without the servants, he couldn't even boil a cup of water.
Judging others by his own standards, he said decisively, "Impossible. Song is a man. Can he cook or make soup? Ahan isn't fat. She's just ordering too much takeout and has water retention."
Chen Rou was too lazy to argue with this stubborn and obstinate guy, so she turned her head to the other side and said, "Whatever you say."
This attitude clearly shows that he doesn't agree with him, and Boss Nie is about to impulsively expose himself.
He said, "He gets off work at 11:00 PM every day and has to work two night shifts every week. He doesn't have time to take care of Ahan."
Yes, although the day shift bodyguards finish get off work at 9:30 p.m., as the bodyguard captain, Song Yuanchao usually waits for Nie Zhao to come home, then inspects the place inside and out, locks all the doors and windows before leaving. He doesn't get to his place until at least midnight, and he has to be at Nie's house at 7:30 a.m. the next morning. He doesn't have time to take care of Nie Han.
Chen Rou usually doesn't pay attention to the details of life, but after Nie Zhao said that, she understood: "Boss, even Zhou Bapi isn't as ruthless as you. You can have other bodyguards do the night shift work. Why do you have to ask Song Zai to do it?"
Boss Nie possessed a selfishness unique to those in positions of power: "I trust him more."
Chen Rou retorted, "But of all the bodyguards, his salary is the lowest. You're unbelievable, you heartless capitalist."
Mao Zi Ge and his group of foreign bodyguards earn over a million a year, while Song Yuanchao only earns 600,000. He works like a slave for his uncle during the day and a horse for his niece at night, making him arguably the number one slave in Hong Kong. Chen Rou feels sorry for him.
However, Nie Zhao's approach is different; the accounts cannot be calculated that way.
He said, "However, the Nie family was involved in everything from Lvsun to Guitouchang, but apart from the profits from the various mines, the Nie family gave all of them to the South China Sea Navy. Songzai was also working for them."
That makes sense, but Chen Rou still felt quite indignant because Song Yuanchao worked so hard every day.
Just then, Song Yuanchao was looking at his phone, so Chen Rou said, "Song, you don't need to watch over things here. Go answer the phone."
Song Yuanchao said thank you, madam, and went downstairs with his phone.
It was indeed Nie Han calling. It was the weekend, so she was resting at home and making soup for her Uncle Song.
But clearly, her soup-making process didn't go smoothly. She said, "I was just doing some work for a little while and the soup all spilled onto the floor, the chicken turned black, and it's still smoking. What should I do?"
Song Yuanchao first asked, "Are you in the kitchen?"
After receiving a correct answer, he said, "Look to the right, next to the knife holder is the gas valve. Pull it up."
Nie Han knew this, so she turned off the gas. Just then, the chicken she was cooking was still smoking. She realized, "Okay, now that the gas is off, what should I do? Kneel down and wipe the soup clean?"
Song Yuanchao said, "No need. Go outside, then close the door, change into a clean pair of slippers. Your slippers are on the second shelf of the shoe cabinet, on the right. Then... I'll call and order food for you."
It's funny, actually, the two of them are still just friends. But the reason why Nie Han doesn't want to go home at all and just wants to stay in her little apartment is because no matter how busy Song Yuanchao is or how late he gets home, as long as you call him, he will definitely have the ability to solve the problem.
Moreover, he was a good cook. He would cook dinner when he got home in the evening and put it in the refrigerator for Nie Han so she could take it to work the next day.
He would also make her all sorts of snacks so she could eat them when she worked overtime.
There's just one downside: Uncle is a troublemaker, and Song comes home very late every day. It's only been two months, and Ahan is still in the honeymoon phase. She whispered, "It's the weekend today, you should be able to come home early, right? I'll wait for you to have dinner together."
Song Yuanchao stood in the stairwell, looked up at the boss for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Okay."
He had a gut feeling that his boss also wanted to go home early today. Well, how should I put it? His boss was very restless today, practically clinging to his wife. It was obvious he was trying to please her. As his boss's bodyguard, Song Yuanchao should know his boss better than his wife. He could tell what his boss was up to just by looking at his behavior.
Indeed, Song has worked here for a long time and knows his boss very well.
Because Chen Rou is about to go to the mainland, she wants to go to Kowloon tonight to meet with the police officers on duty, to learn about the current situation in Kowloon, and the evidence they have collected about Cheung Tze-keung.
But she had to go, and she would definitely be home very late. Boss Nie had a regular schedule, and as he got older, doing that kind of thing in the middle of the night would exhaust his energy for the next day. Today was the weekend, so of course she wanted to go home early.
Sure enough, as she opened her phone and started looking through her contacts, her eyes lit up slightly, and she already had an idea.
He first said in a low voice, "The police only want to see one Kowloon bigwig. The other one is bound to get stabbed. All you can do now is ensure his safe arrival and prevent him from being brought to court in his twilight years."
