Nanxi didn't get up until nearly eleven o'clock the next day, and her bones felt as if they had been taken apart and reassembled.
The culprit is long gone.
"Ba Xiaolu, just wait for me, you bastard." She got out of bed and took a long time to wash up.
When the servant saw her wake up, he brought up the prepared meal. The simple and crude cooking method and color showed that it was made by Baru himself.
Although the food he cooked looked ordinary, it tasted good, at least it suited her taste buds.
Nanxi was drinking seafood porridge and chatting with Liang Lu on WeChat when she learned that Xu Jin was planning to sell the gallery and go traveling to sketch.
Xu Jin is a true artist. Any of his eccentric behaviors seem so harmonious with his artistic temperament. Traveling and creating is something he has talked about many times. Now he is finally going to do it, and Nanxi is happy for him.
Liang Lu said that she also wanted to return to her hometown in the county. Her parents were urging her to get married, and she couldn't keep wandering around like this.
When Nanxi sent the last voice message, the guard outside came in to report that there was a woman named Yinyin at the door and wanted to see her.
After thinking for a few seconds, he let the person in.
Yinyin was still dressed like the obedient girl next door, with red eyes, as she followed the guards in.
Nanxi was sitting in a high seat, calmly watching her walk up to her and salute with her hands clasped together. Although she tried her best to hide it, her tense and stiff body language still revealed her nervousness.
"Hello, Miss Nan." Although her Chinese was not standard, it did not affect communication at all.
"What do you want from me?" Nanxi went straight to the point, not wanting to be overly polite with her.
"I know you hate me, and you know you shouldn't be here today..."
"Should I or shouldn't I? You've already come, haven't you? I wouldn't say I hate you, but you shouldn't expect me to like you, right? So, you'd better just state your purpose directly. I don't have much patience."
Yin Yin's words were stuck in her mouth. She looked at her awkwardly for two seconds before speaking.
"Miss Nan, Brother Natu told me not to work at Paradise anymore. But over the years, this is the only decent job I've found, and I cherish it. Could you please help me put in a word? As long as you ask, Brother A-Long will definitely not say anything. He's the big boss, and Brother Natu listens to him."
Nanxi sneered, her eyebrows looking at her in confusion, "Why do you think I would speak well of a woman who is thinking about my man? I'll leave you there and come out to annoy me from time to time?"
"Because you just look down on me, don't you? You are so high and mighty and have never taken me seriously. So whether I am in the nightclub or not has no effect on you at all. But to me, it is very important. I need this job, Miss Nan." Although Yin Yin had a timid look on her face, she spoke in an organized and logical manner.
Nanxi raised her pretty eyebrows and spoke softly, "What a good move of retreating to advance. You are very smart, Yinyin, but this does not mean that others are fools.
I never look down on anyone unless that person doesn't deserve it.
The appointment and dismissal of personnel at the nightclub is not within my jurisdiction. You can go to Natu or Zhanpeng. I can also call Balut and ask him to come back now. You can talk to him face to face. This is because you and they are from the same hometown."
"What if I promise that I will never get close to Brother A Long again?" Yin Yin tested again.
"You can come closer. If you have the guts to do that, I won't interfere. I don't need him. I have money, a career, and a family. I don't need any of that. I won't cling to a man and won't let go."
She spoke calmly, glancing at the girl opposite her. "But you'd better be smarter and don't let me find out before you succeed. After all, he's mine now."
"Also, I'll talk to him about your coming here today. How I do it depends entirely on my mood."
Yin Yin's face quickly turned cold. At this moment, she knew that no matter how hard she tried, she could not defeat this woman.
She has the kind of relaxed and gentle temperament that comes from the inside out. This kind of temperament can only be found in a girl who grew up in a wealthy family.
She has everything, so she doesn't seem to care that much about losing anything. Precisely because she doesn't care, it is often the other person who is afraid of losing. Sometimes, when you care too much, you will do anything to achieve your goal and disregard your dignity.
Yinyin smiled bitterly, with sparkling eyes.
"Miss Nan, can I ask you a question?" At this moment, her eyes revealed some real emotions.
Nanxi didn't say anything, but looked at her with her beautiful eyes.
"Why did you ask Brother Along to save me that day?"
"Seeing you crying so pitifully, I would save any other girl." She took the coffee on the table and took a sip, saying lightly.
"Sa Xun is a pervert. He looks serious on the outside, but he is shameless in private. I am scared to death of him. Before you, I have escaped many times, and no one has ever helped me."
Yin Yin lowered her head, her fingers tangled together, and her voice sounded tired.
"Brother A'long is like my life-saving straw. He saved me and helped me. I have always been grateful to him. I admit that there was a time when I was extremely jealous of you. I thought you were just good-looking, and you kept pestering Brother A'long all day long, seducing him.
I thought that if I destroyed your relationship, Brother A-Long would be unable to bear your behavior and break up with you. After all, isn't that what all men do? But I didn't expect that he loved you so much.
"Miss Nan, I was blinded by jealousy for a moment, but I won't do that again. I liked him and regarded him as a hero and a supporter. I thought that as long as I followed Brother Along, Sa Xun would never bother me again. He couldn't beat Brother Along. I was too naive. Can you forgive me?"
She finally let go of the resentment and inexplicable pride in her heart, and no longer regarded Nanxi as an imaginary enemy. She clasped her hands together, tears in her eyes, and spoke sincerely.
Nanxi looked at her for more than ten seconds and said, "Have you ever thought that Saxun might really like you?"
Yin Yin was stunned at first, then sneered, "How is that possible? A rich young man like him, how could there be any real feelings? He's just used to eating lavish food, and seeing a little rape like me is quite delicious, he wanted to try something to relieve his greasiness. It's not like I haven't seen him playing with women in the red light district before."
"Sometimes, those who want to become Buddhas may not be reciting the true sutras. Just like this coffee, I only care whether it tastes good and suits my taste. As for where the tree it grows from, who picked it, or whether the coffee maker truly wants me to feel happy when I drink it, I never care."
Nanxi finished speaking, picked up the coffee and took a sip, elegantly and calmly, raised her chin, and said, "Try it."
Yinyin seemed to understand, but not quite. She mechanically picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip. She didn't taste it very good and frowned slightly.
"Get some on your way back, this coffee is good."
