After eating and drinking her fill, Ning Qing sprawled on the sofa and played games.
Su Xia voluntarily went to wash the dishes.
Ning Qing felt deeply gratified, and the corners of her lips unconsciously turned up.
Su Xia came out of the kitchen to say goodbye to Ning Qing.
Ning Qing patted the seat next to her, gesturing for him to come and sit down.
Su Xia hesitated for a moment, but eventually walked over and sat down next to Ning Qing. However, there was still room for two people to sit between the two of them.
Ning Qing sized up the tall, thin, handsome young man in front of her.
"How old are you?"
Su Xia nodded, "18."
Ning Qing nodded. "Your son is all grown up now!"
"Yellow Hair suffered a loss at my hands today, and he will definitely continue to cause you trouble."
Su Xia frowned slightly upon hearing this. That person was the school bully, with a bad temper, a strong sense of vengeance, and a character who would seek revenge for any wrong done to him.
No matter how it started, this feud has been formed.
If he starts causing me trouble every day from now on...
It wasn't that I was afraid he would cause trouble, but I couldn't waste my time dealing with such meaningless things.
It seems I need to find some time to completely resolve this troublesome matter.
Seeing this, Ning Qing continued to coax him.
“My place is close to your school, absolutely safe and quiet enough, you can stay here with me.”
With her here to protect him, all the evil spirits and monsters had to step aside. Ning Qing gave Su Xia a look that said, "I'm very reliable, you can rest assured and leave your safety to me."
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Ning, but I..." Su Xia wanted to refuse.
"Listen to me before you make a decision. I won't let you stay here for free; there are conditions."
Ning Qing knew that Su Xia was at a very sensitive age and wouldn't accept gifts from others for nothing, so she made up this excuse.
Of course, she also had her own selfish motives.
"Host, what are your ulterior motives?"
The system, sensing Ning Qing's thoughts, chimed in again. It was about something that concerned the mission objective, and it had to get to the bottom of it.
Why should I tell you?
Ning Qing rolled her eyes at the system.
System: ...Host, you're not human, but you're definitely a dog!
"What are Mr. Ning's conditions?"
Although he wouldn't be staying here, he was curious about Mr. Ning's terms.
"Here's the thing, I'm thinking of acquiring a small company and making some investments in the next few years. But the people I hire from outside are unknown to me, and I don't earn money easily, so I don't dare to hand it over to people I don't know. I need to train someone from my own circle to help manage it. I think you're very good, and I will do my best to train you. I hope you won't let me down."
"Of course, the reason we let you stay here is to observe your character closely."
"Oh, I see. Host, your selfish desire is to enslave and protect the target, to train him to work himself to death for you. You're such a lazy bum, aren't you?"
The system, which believed it had discovered the truth, was no longer calm.
Ning Qing rolled her eyes at the system with disdain and ignored it.
Su Xia's eyes widened in disbelief. He hadn't expected Ning Qing to say this to him and was momentarily speechless.
His first thought was that the person in front of him was playing a trick on him.
However, when he saw the seriousness in Ning Qing's eyes, he suppressed that urge.
Ning Qing knew that her words were somewhat abrupt, but she couldn't think of any other reason at the moment.
"Can".
Su Xia hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
He had no reason to refuse such a good opportunity. Mr. Ning said he would do his best to cultivate him. He liked the word "do his best" from Mr. Ning. Mr. Ning was very gentle, and he wanted to retain that gentleness.
For over a decade, no one has ever treated me with such gentleness.
Recalling how Mr. Ning kept adding food to his bowl during the meal, and how the satisfied and happy look on his face was when he ate the food Mr. Ning had put on him, Su Mo couldn't help but feel happy too.
Who could bear to refuse such a gentle Mr. Ning's request?
