Du Yuanzhe arrived at the company on time and went straight to the top floor to look for Xia Ning.

Cheng Yu saw Du Yuanzhe coming out of the elevator and immediately stood up and said, "Second Master Du, the president is waiting for you in the office."

Du Yuanzhe nodded and walked to the door of the president's office. He knocked twice, heard someone say "Come in", and then pushed the door open and walked in.

Xia Ningmi was processing documents. Knowing that it was Du Yuanzhe who came, she said without even raising her head, "Sit down first."

Du Yuanzhe sat down in front of Xia Ningmi and watched her flipping through the documents page by page. If you ignore Xia Ningmi's indifference, just looking at her is still quite pleasing to the eye.

A few minutes later, Xia Ningmi signed at the end of the document, closed the folder, looked up at Du Yuanzhe, and said something that made Du Yuanzhe's heart break.

"No matter how you look at it, you look like Du Yuanzhe himself."

[Oh shit oh shit, how did she know that? She shouldn’t know that. She must be lying to me. She must be lying to me.]

Du Yuanzhe used all his acting skills to avoid appearing strange. He asked in confusion, "What is Mr. Xia saying? Why can't I understand?"

It's a pity that no matter how well he concealed it, his true feelings had already betrayed him.

Xia Ningmi had felt something was strange before. It was not the first time she had seen Du Yuanzhe in the elevator, but nothing had happened before. Yet, that day, she heard Du Yuanzhe's inner thoughts for the first time, and it seemed abnormal no matter how she looked at it.

Especially after hearing about the male and female protagonists, Xia Ning felt that something was wrong with Du Yuanzhe, so she asked someone to investigate everything about Du Yuanzhe from birth to the present, and then she discovered the changes in Du Yuanzhe.

For others, these changes might be manageable, but for Xia Ningmi, they were Du Yuanzhe's fatal weaknesses.

Sometimes, getting the answer requires taking a bold guess and then finding a way to verify it.

Xia Ningmi has always been courageous.

And it turns out, she guessed right!

Next is the time to answer questions.

"It doesn't matter to me who you are, but there is one thing I'm curious about."

From Xia Ningmi's tone, it seemed that she had confirmed that he was not Du Yuanzhe. Du Yuanzhe felt more and more uneasy. None of the Du family members noticed that he was not right. How did Xia Ningmi know? He didn't know what to do for a moment.

System, please tell me what to do?

Speak up, system, is this the time to play dead?

Damn, this is a damn system. Where has my enthusiasm for work gone?

Du Yuanzhe called the system to no avail and became increasingly anxious, but he had to remain calm.

Xia Ningmi was not feeling well at this time either. Her head was full of crackling sounds, which gave her a headache. Although she didn't know why this happened, she was sure it was related to Du Yuanzhe.

Xia Ning didn't want to give Du Yuanzhe a chance to think wildly, so she continued to attack: "If you don't know what to say, I can give you a reminder - the heroine Wei Lingling."

Du Yuanzhe's pupils dilated, knowing that there was no need to hide anymore.

[She really knew]

Du Yuanzhe looked up at Xia Ningmi and frowned, "What do you know?"

Xia Ningmi said calmly: "It doesn't matter. The key is what you can tell me."

"What makes you think I would tell you?"

"I think Mr. Du would be very curious about where his son has gone."

"Are you threatening me?"

[I didn't make him disappear. Do you think I wanted to be here?]

Xia Ning looked into his eyes and said, "I just want to know something. It won't be a loss for you."

Du Yuanzhe shook his head: "You are wrong. If you knew certain things, I would be in danger."

[If there is one more variable in the plot, the subsequent development may change drastically. How can I maintain the development of the plot at that time?]

Plot?

There are male and female protagonists and a plot?

What on earth is this!

An absurd guess emerged in Xia Ningmi's mind, but how could this be possible? She remembered her experiences from childhood to adulthood clearly, and everything was so real, how could this be an illusion?

Xia Ningmi remained expressionless. She probably understood Du Yuanzhe's concerns. She hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not interested in other people. You just need to tell me where my story is going. I don't think it will have much impact on you."

She remembered that in Du Yuanzhe's mind, her role was a supporting one.

Du Yuanzhe was numb. Xia Ning knew too much. He shook his head again: "I can't say."

Xia Ningmi's eyes turned cold.

Du Yuanzhe hurriedly explained: "It's really hard to say. No one exists independently. If you change here, other things will change as well."

Xia Ningmi thought thoughtfully: "It seems that my future is not good."

If she is successful in the future, it won't be a big deal if she knows it in advance. But now Du Yuanzhe is so cautious, then her future will definitely not be good, or even terrible.

Du Yuanzhe's face froze.

[Fuck, I was tricked again. This woman is really scary.]

Xia Ningmi looked deep in the eyes, tapped the table with her fingers and asked, "How do you think I should arrange for you?"

Du Yuanzhe touched his nose and said awkwardly: "I think it's good for us to stay the same."

Of course, this is basically wishful thinking.

Xia Ningmi pretended not to hear and continued to ask, "Do you like Wei Lingling?"

Du Yuanzhe shook his head: "Since President Xia knows that I am not... then he should also know that it is not me who likes Wei Lingling."

Xia Ningmi nodded and said, "I'm still in need of a boyfriend, and you're just the right person."

The tone was as casual as saying it was time to eat soon.

Du Yuanzhe was stunned: "How can this be possible?"

"Why not?"

"Isn't President Xia going to get engaged to Jiang Chelin?"

Xia Ningmi frowned and said, "That was just a joke from the elders. Jiang Chelin and I didn't take it seriously."

"But, that shouldn't be me."

[I didn’t do anything bad in my previous life, why are you torturing me like this?]

Xia Ningmi didn't care about Du Yuanzhe's resistance at all and said, "I'll give you two choices. Either you tell me everything, or you become my boyfriend."

Du Yuanzhe was forced into a corner and gritted his teeth and said, "For now, this is all just your guess. Even if you tell others, who will believe it?"

[Humph, I will never admit my mistake. What can Xia Ningmi do to me?]

Xia Ning leaned back in her chair and said calmly, "If you are sure that you can play the role of Du Yuanzhe 100%, just ignore what I say."

It hasn't been long since then, but Du Yuanzhe has changed a lot. She doesn't believe that Du Yuanzhe can accept that she has become a completely different person.

Du Yuanzhe was silent.

Let him play another person completely, he would rather be wiped out by this world. Forget it, a man who knows the current situation is a hero, and he can be patient for a while and keep calm.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xia Ningmi understood his choice and said, "Move your luggage to my house as soon as possible."

Du Yuanzhe finally couldn't help but jump up and said, "How can you live together right after you start dating?"

[Can you still have some girlish modesty? ]

Xia Ning looked at him with an indifferent look and said, "I don't think you are stupid enough to need me to explain the reason to you."

Du Yuanzhe was silent. He knew that Xia Ningmi did this to monitor him closely. In the end, it was for the plot he knew. If it was not related to his life or death, he really wanted to tell Xia Ningmi everything.

This woman is too shrewd. He really doesn't want to deal with her for a long time.

However, Du Yuanzhe didn't want to listen to her in everything, so he coughed twice and said, "I can't move to your place. My mother would kill me if she knew."

The Du family is not bankrupt, and he does not need a woman to support him.

Xia Ningmi didn't care about this and said, "It's the same if I move to your place."

She just wanted to be close to eavesdrop on Du Yuanzhe's thoughts. It didn't make any difference to her where he lived. It was just a house anyway.

She stopped caring about home ten years ago.

Du Yuanzhe continued to struggle: "I am usually very sloppy, with things scattered everywhere, and I also have smelly feet."

Xia Ningmi had already opened a new document and said, "If you are sick, go get treatment. I can help you contact a doctor. As for the rest, the housekeeper will take care of it. You can leave now."

Du Yuanzhe was speechless.

[Is her heart made of stone? She has no emotional ups and downs at all]

Hearing the door close, Xia Ning paused as she flipped through the documents. A familiar yet unfamiliar female voice seemed to echo in her mind:

I have done such a sin to give birth to a daughter with such a heart of stone like you. You are just like your beastly father, both of you are here to collect debts.

Holding the document tightly, Xia Ningmi's gaze became increasingly calm. She no longer cared about what the man said.

Cheng Yu had been paying attention to what was happening in the office. When she saw Du Yuanzhe coming out, she was about to say hello, but she saw that Du Yuanzhe looked listless, like a defeated rooster.

Watching Du Yuanzhe leave in the elevator, Cheng Yu was still wondering what happened.

At this moment, the phone on her desk rang, and Xia Ningmi's calm voice came from the other end of the line.

"Find a moving company to move all my luggage to Du Yuanzhe's house and have it moved before tonight."

Cheng Yu pinched her face subconsciously. Did she hear it wrong?

"Did you remember that?"

Sensing Xia Ningmi's impatience, Cheng Yu hurriedly said, "Remember, remember... But President, the place where Young Master Du lives is not very big, and I'm afraid it won't be able to accommodate your things."

Du Yuanzhe currently lives in a three-bedroom, two-living room apartment. It's comfortable for him alone, but it's not enough if Xia Ningmi comes with him.

"Buy the upper floor and have someone connect the two floors."

Du Yuanzhe lives in a two-unit apartment on one floor. If he wants to expand the area, he can only choose to connect the upper and lower floors and transform it into a duplex apartment.

Cheng Yu said: "This will take more than a month, and Young Master Du will have to live somewhere else during this period."

“Just do it.”

After that, the phone was hung up.

On the other side, Du Yuanzhe, who had just left the company, received a call from Xia Ningmi.

"The place you live in now is too small. Do you have any other place to live?"

Du Yuanzhe knew Xia Ningmu was not satisfied with his current house. He was delighted and said immediately, "No, you know that all the property belongs to my brother. My current house was bought by my mother with her own money."

This is not a lie. The original owner only has this one house in Yancheng, and the others are in other cities.

Xia Ningmi said, "You can live in my house for the next two months. I have asked someone to buy your upstairs. When the two houses are connected, we will move in."

After saying that, Xia Ning didn't want to give Du Yuanzhe a chance to refuse and hung up the phone.

Du Yuanzhe heard the beeping sound from his phone and instantly realized that Xia Ningmi had tricked him again. She had calculated that he would answer like this and had been waiting for him here.

Scheming!

So scheming!
