The recurring, intense feeling of suffocation made Ning Yuan's speech incoherent. She pointed at the clock with a sullen face and said, "It's seven o'clock..."
Rong Zhaonan glanced at the clock on the wall. After all, this person still had some humanity. This time, instead of forcing her to finish her work, she went to buy food.
It was already 7:30 p.m. when he returned with the aluminum lunchbox.
Ning Yuan had finished getting ready and was sitting on a stool, twisting her waist and hips back and forth, clearly very uncomfortable.
Rong Zhaonan put down the lunchbox and stuffed a pillow under her buttocks and behind her back: "Can't you even figure out how to deal with your discomfort?"
Ning Yuan glared at him: "Who exploited me like this? How dare you say that to me!"
She's about to turn to dust!
Unfortunately, her large, dark eyes were wet at the moment, and her original fierce light seemed weak and utterly threatening.
Rong Zhaonan chuckled and opened a few lunchboxes: "Eat first, then you can stay angry with me."
Ning Yuan was taken aback when she saw the stir-fried cucumber, perilla fried meatballs, and stir-fried beef with pickled bamboo shoots in her lunchbox: "This isn't from the school cafeteria, nor was it bought from a state-run restaurant, is it?"
Rong Zhaonan said casually, "Yes, it was Grandma who made it."
Ning Yuan covered her face: "...No, why did you go to Grandma to cook for you!"
She likes to eat food from her hometown.
But at this time, she's neither disabled nor sick, so why doesn't she just go back to her grandma and grandpa's house with Rong Zhaonan for dinner, instead of making Rong Zhaonan go get the food all by himself?
The old lady is so shrewd, she'll figure it out in no time!
Rong Zhaonan raised an eyebrow: "We're husband and wife. So what if they know we slept together?"
Ning Yuan was speechless for a moment, her round face turning red and white as she was confronted: "But...but even if we're husband and wife..."
Oh well, fine, she's shy, never mind... let's eat!
Ning Yuan stopped arguing and started eating.
Rong Zhaonan raised an eyebrow and sat down to eat with them. He had a big appetite and finished three boxes of rice.
Ning Yuan found it somewhat amusing. In her past life, she had never read any romance novels where the domineering CEO ate three large boxes of rice. Ha... a domineering CEO who ate rice, no, this is a rough, uncouth man who ate rice.
Rong Zhaonan raised an eyebrow as he watched her suppress a laugh: "Am I that funny?"
"No." Ning Yuan immediately shook her head, trying not to choke, and changed the subject: "Um, their flight is the day after tomorrow, should I go pick them up?"
Rong Zhaonan put some food on her plate: "There's no need. Didn't you have class that day?"
Ning Yuan thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Trying to force things won't make a sale. Instead, it will make Ning Bingyu and the others look down on us."
Rong Zhaonan thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Regarding your jade chili pepper, you said before that if they wanted it, they would have to offer enough 'sincerity' in exchange. Have you thought about what that 'sincerity' means?"
Ning Yuan paused, somewhat annoyed: "I haven't decided yet. Maybe I'll ask them to build three buildings in Hong Kong."
Back then, Cha Mei-ling said in Guangzhou that she was a daughter of the Ning family, and that the Ning family would provide at least one Hong Kong government building for a daughter's marriage.
A building owned by the Hong Kong government would cost at least 2 billion RMB in a few decades, and even now it would cost between several million and tens of millions.
"Since that Swiss bank vault is worth tens of billions of US dollars, it's not unreasonable for me to want three buildings, is it?" Ning Yuan sneered.
Rong Zhaonan thought for a moment: "If you want to sever ties with them, that's not unreasonable, provided that the Sheng family's treasure trove is actually located in a Swiss bank."
"You mean, if this treasure trove doesn't exist, then in the eyes of the Ning family, I'm greedy and insatiable, right?" Ning Yuan ate pickled bamboo shoots, her big eyes narrowing.
Rong Zhaonan chuckled lightly: "Yes."
Ning Yuan shrugged indifferently: "It's much better for me to look greedy than to look like an easily fooled idiot."
Rong Zhaonan looked at Ning Yuan, a hint of helplessness in his cold eyes. She had a very bad impression of the Ning family and was holding a grudge.
He took her hand in return and said calmly, "As long as you're happy, that's all that matters. With me here, they won't dare let you suffer any injustice."
Ning Yuan felt a warmth in her heart, and leaned her head on his shoulder: "I believe in Comrade Rong Zhaonan's ability to act and his determination."
Rong Zhaonan chuckled, picked up a meatball with his chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth: "Then, will Boss Ning stay overnight tonight?"
Ning Yuan almost choked: "Cough cough... Eating too much meat can cause indigestion, and not everyone has your ability to absorb nourishment, Daoist Master. At least let me rest."
After a whole afternoon of running around, she was so tired she was almost fainting, and she even had dark circles under her eyes. Meanwhile, the other person was radiant and looked even more handsome and sexy.
Rong Zhaonan pinched her round face and tugged at it: "Tsk, Boss Ning doesn't exercise or train every day, so how can you blame me for her poor physical condition?"
Ning Yuan slapped his hand away without ceremony and jumped off the stool: "I told you not to pinch my face. Wait until the Taoist priest teaches me the Yang-replenishing-Yin technique. Bye-bye!"
After saying that, she turned to leave.
Rong Zhaonan grabbed her hand and hugged her, a little annoyed: "I won't touch you tonight, okay? You'll sleep peacefully!"
Ning Yuan looked down at him and said, "Swear it!"
Rong Zhaonan raised his eyes and calmly said, "I swear to Buddha that I will purify my mind and abstain from desires tonight. If I break this vow, may I..."
Ning Yuan quickly replied, "You won't be able to get it for a year! Swear it now!"
Rong Zhaonan: "..."
That curly-haired dead rabbit spirit is pretty ruthless!
Rong Zhaonan reluctantly swore as Ning Yuan had instructed.
So the first half of the night was quite fine.
But I was woken up again around 5 a.m. and tossed around once more!
Ning Yuan's face flushed red, she gritted her teeth, clutched her waist, and glared at the person by the bed: "Didn't you swear an oath?"
Rong Zhaonan calmly buttoned the top button of his collar: "The oath I made last night doesn't count since it's past midnight, and besides..."
He put on his peaked cap, and his white police uniform made his cool and handsome face appear even more ascetic and wicked: "That was a vow I made to Buddha. I used to follow the Taoist tradition, but now I only believe in the red flag."
Ning Yuan, clutching her blanket, angrily threw a large pillow at him: "Get out of here!"
Rong Zhaonan deftly took her pillow and walked over.
Ning Yuan instinctively shrank back: "What are you doing... We have to go to work!"
Rong Zhaonan reached out and patted her round face, then looked down with a half-smile and said, "No classes this morning, get some rest. I'll come back tonight and discuss the meaning of life with Boss Ning, like the topic of 'sexual cultivation'..."
This guy is clearly wicked, but he looks so charming right now, dressed impeccably, that you almost want to rip his clothes off.
Ning Yuan choked, her face flushed red, and she slapped his hand away: "...Get away!"
Rong Zhaonan smiled, picked up his briefcase, and turned to leave: "Remember to eat breakfast, it's on the table."
...
Ning Yuan sighed, then snuggled into the blankets that still smelled of him for a long time before drifting off to sleep.
Around 10 a.m., she got up with messy hair and yawns to wash up and take a shower.
Hot water streamed down her face, and she sighed with pleasure, thinking how much more comfortable it would be to have a water heater.
After finishing breakfast, it was almost noon, so Ning Yuan headed back to her dormitory.
When Ning Yuan returned to the dormitory, she was stunned. The entire dormitory was in complete chaos, as if a tornado had swept through it.
Things were smashed and scattered everywhere, and Chu Hongyu and Ding Lan were facing off!
A group of female students gathered at the entrance to watch the commotion.
