When she got home, the happiest person was Nie Han.
After all, even though there are a lot of servants and bodyguards at home, Hong Kong is in chaos these days.
Nie Han was the first person to come into contact with Chen Rou and the first to discover that she was different from the original. She and the original owner had a close relationship since childhood, so she was naturally wondering where the original Chen Rou had gone.
But after all, she was saved by the current Chen Rou, and no one can compare to the bond they shared through thick and thin.
And coincidentally, Nie Zhao had instructed that Chen Rou should rest well at home these few days, so once Chen Rou got home, there was no need for any other servants or for Chen Rou to do housework. Nie Han would be her 24-hour personal servant and housekeeper.
Nie Jiayu has been staying at school for a week. Today is the weekend, and he should go home after treating his nose wound at the hospital. However, Nie Han was afraid that he would bother Chen Rou as soon as he returned, so she discussed it with Uncle Ming and let him stay at the hospital.
So, for the first time since her transmigration, Chen Rou finally had a comfortable weekend.
And that weekend, she even saw Nie Zhao on TV.
It wasn't a real person appearing on camera, but there was a brief news item on Saturday at 10 o'clock: Nie Zhao, president of Nie Group, accompanied the commander of the British garrison in Hong Kong, the governor of Hong Kong, and others to visit and supervise the construction of the airport.
Nie Zhao is truly a workaholic; he's already appeared in public.
Although Nie Han wasn't fully aware of the predicament her uncle was currently facing, she couldn't help but worry when she saw this news. She asked Chen Rou, "Xi Niang, are we safe now? Is it alright for Uncle to go out like this?"
Although Chen Rou inherited the original owner's memories, her physical sensations were entirely her own. Having slept on a hard military bed her whole life, she couldn't get used to the soft beds in the Nie family. Now, lying on the same bed with Nie Han, who was pressed against her, she felt very uncomfortable, but she endured it. She said, "Han, your uncle is the smartest person I've ever met."
"What do you mean by that?" Nie Han asked, puzzled.
Chen Rou said, "There are many people, including Gui Tou Chang, who are watching him and waiting for him to recover from his injuries and go out. But your uncle went out before he was fully recovered. Those people were not ready and of course they could not act. Your uncle was able to take advantage of this gap to finish all the work that needed to be done."
“Once they’re ready, my uncle won’t go out, right? He’s really smart,” Nie Han said.
Actually, that's not the case. When the enemy thought Nie Zhao was still recovering from his injuries, he had already gone out to work. At this point, the enemy wanted to prepare to kill him, so they had to plan how to kill him. But sorry, by the time the enemy was ready to kill him, he had already laid his hands on the weapon and killed him ahead of time.
His plan boils down to one thing: always be one step ahead.
By the way, when Chen Rou was reading the newspapers on the weekend, she found that various media outlets, including Ming Pao and Mirror, had published a breaking news story. The story was rather vague, only saying that, according to an insider, a wealthy socialite in Hong Kong was having an extramarital affair and had a child out of wedlock. Hong Kong media, as always, make things up like a racing car, so in short, they made it sound very convincing, saying that the insider not only took photos of the socialite having an affair, but also had DNA paternity tests.
Chen Rou had a gut feeling that Nie Zhao was the one who did it.
Although Mei Lu was not his wife but only his concubine, she was still a prominent figure in Hong Kong's wealthy circles.
Nie Yao was even more influential than Nie Rong in their circle of friends. Their sudden disappearance would definitely attract media attention over time. Although the paparazzi from several major newspapers wouldn't chase after him because Han Yuzhu had shares in them, those tabloids would risk their lives for scoops.
In order to resolve this crisis, Nie Zhao must gradually release information to make the whole matter seem reasonable and ensure that it can be safely resolved without harming the Nie family.
Chen Rou was in the Nie family's living room, sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window reading a newspaper.
The sofa was very comfortable, and the air conditioning was at a perfect temperature, neither too hot nor too cold. There was a fruit plate on the table, and even the fruit forks were silver. Not far away were two maids, and they weren't Filipino maids, but locals who could speak English.
This must be the life of a wealthy wife that Mei Lu has always dreamed of and wants to enjoy for a long time.
Chen Rou experienced it for a while, and at this moment she felt similar to Liu Shan, somewhat reluctant to leave.
As she was reading the newspaper, she saw a black Rolls-Royce drive into the yard, past the French windows, and stop at the archway. Immediately, bodyguards running behind caught up, and the bodyguard in the passenger seat got out to open the door.
Of course, it wasn't Nie Rong who came; the old man's heart still needs to be healed.
Could it be Nie Zhao?
Chen Rou stretched her neck and saw the bodyguards bowing and spreading out, with a man in a formal suit standing in the middle, looking up at the building.
It was Nie Zhao; his leg wasn't injured, so he could move freely.
He paused briefly at the door, straightened his tie, lightly stomped his long legs, and stepped inside.
...
Chen Rou finally understood why he always disliked Song Yuanchao. The same suit, but when he wore it, when he adjusted his tie, the way he walked, from his gait to his demeanor, was completely different from the bodyguards.
