Song Ning's Jinxiufang has become famous in the capital, and Mu Xuerong is now able to stand on her own.
That day, Mu Xuerong pulled her aside and whispered, "Master, I've noticed something's not right lately."
"What's wrong?"
"Xiao Cui".
Xiao Cui? Since Xiao Cui started following her, she has become a quick learner, conscientious, responsible, and hardworking, more capable than anyone else around her.
Half of the business she's built over the years is thanks to Xiao Cui.
"What's wrong with her?"
"It's just that... she often spaces out, and lately she's been making a lot of mistakes. I'm not complaining behind her back, I'm just worried that she might be too tired. Should we let her go home and rest for a few days?"
Song Ning thought for a moment and said, "I understand. Don't worry, I'll talk to her."
That evening, when Xiao Cui returned home, Song Ning called her into the house.
Have you been feeling unwell lately?
"Huh?" Xiao Cui quickly shook her head: "No."
"You've seemed distracted lately, has something happened?"
"No, it's just... I can't sleep well at night."
Song Ning was still worried: "We should still find a doctor to take a look. What if he's really sick?"
Xiao Cui couldn't resist Song Ning's advice and went to see a doctor. It turned out there was nothing serious; the doctor just told her to rest less and take a good rest.
Song Ning was relieved and instructed, "I'll give you a few days off to rest well."
"But......"
"No buts. You should rest well. You don't need to worry about things at the shop."
Xiao Cui always listened to Song Ning. That night, she returned to her own home, and Song Ning even sent someone to take care of her.
Xiao Cui has made a lot of money following Song Ning these past few years. If we're talking about buying a house in the capital, she could easily afford three or four, let alone one.
She bought this house herself. Although the Song family is her home, the landlord said that she needs her own private space.
Xiao Cui was used to being independent and didn't need anyone to serve her, so she sent the person away to rest.
As I lay there, I actually fell asleep.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already dark. Just as I was about to get up and eat something, I realized something was wrong.
In the darkness, she felt as if someone was holding her hand, which startled her and almost made her scream.
Just before she could speak, a pair of large hands covered her mouth, and a voice whispered, "It's me."
She would never forget that voice, even if it meant her death.
His face instantly darkened, and he opened his mouth and bit the hand.
The man hissed in pain from the bite, but he didn't remove his hand.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Cui finally let go, and the man sighed, "Feeling better now?"
"roll!"
The man didn't move, but tried to pull her into his arms. Xiao Cui was startled and jumped off the bed.
He stared warily at the dark figure: "Have you no shame? Coming to my house so late at night, if you keep this up, I'm going to report you to the authorities!"
She really thanked him; she never knew this person could be so difficult.
They have already made it very clear.
"Xiao Cui, I just want to say nice things to you."
"Who wants to talk to you? If you continue like this, I'll tell the boss. If the boss finds out you're bullying me like this, he'll definitely not let you get away with it."
Although this person is indeed good-looking, she only wants to do business with her employer. Her employer is right; men will only slow down her earning speed.
Because of him, she hasn't been in good condition lately, so how can she earn money?
"Xiao Cui, we have already..."
"You dare mention it again! Are you leaving or not? If you don't leave, I'm going to call for help!"
Xiao Cui's voice was a little louder, startling the maid outside: "Miss, has something happened?"
......
Neither of them spoke. The maid was anxious and called out several times from outside. Just as she was about to break down the door, Xiao Cui immediately said, "It's nothing, I just had a nightmare. You should go back and rest."
The sight of this person before her was truly a nightmare.
"Let me tell you, if you dare to tell anyone about that, I'll really fight you to the death."
She's a grown woman, not some clueless little girl. We're all adults, why play these irresponsible games? She doesn't need them.
"Get out of here and never show your face in front of me again. We're not the same kind of people."
After the incident, Xiao Cui had considered discussing it with the man. She didn't want him to take responsibility; she just wanted to keep the matter to herself.
But this person probably thought he should take responsibility, acting as if it was none of his business, and even said that the responsibility was hers, that she had forced herself on him.
She actually laughed, as if she were eagerly clinging to him, although... it was indeed she who forced herself on him...
The man in the darkness sighed softly and said, "Then you should get some rest. I'll come see you another day."
"No need, you don't need to come again."
The man didn't speak. After hearing the maid leave, he jumped out of the window and left the room.
Xiao Cui breathed a sigh of relief. What incredible luck she had!
She slept with a man after getting drunk, but he didn't want to take responsibility afterward.
She thought the matter was over, but who would have thought that this scoundrel would launch a surprise attack.
Now he's shamelessly pestering her like this. You really can't judge a book by its cover. He looks like a gentleman, but he's actually a scoundrel.
She dared not tell her employer that she had let him down and that she had failed him in his efforts to cultivate her and care for her.
She clearly stated that if someone is destined to work for the employer for life, even if they get married in the future, they will marry someone chosen by the employer.
But now, she has broken her promise.
Her employer will definitely be disappointed in her, and may even fire her.
Because a man loses his employer, he would rather die than stay.
This jerk isn't any good either; she'd be grateful if he just stopped bothering her.
After resting at home for three days, Xiao Cui returned to the shop and was promptly scolded by Song Ning.
"Why don't you take care of yourself? You don't need to worry about the shop now, there are people watching over it."
"Master, I really can't sit still any longer. Please let me come back. If I keep resting like this, I'll get sick."
Song Ning sighed helplessly; Xiao Cui really did have the workaholic vibe from her past life.
Why are there still people eager to work overtime?
"Even when you get back to the shop, you can't overwork yourself. Leave anything to the staff. Just give them a heads-up. I'll send someone to bring you some snacks later."
"Don't worry, I know. My boss treats me the best."
Xiao Cui rubbed against Song Ning's arm, leaning against him affectionately.
Xie Linzhou and Xia Shiyang happened to come in from outside and immediately saw the two's actions, their eyes darkening.
When Xiao Cui saw someone coming, her expression changed slightly, and she quickly straightened up.
This son-in-law is really something... he's even jealous of her.
She hadn't spoken to her employer like this in a long time.
He bowed to Xie Linzhou and Xia Shiyang, then turned and went into the backyard.
