Tony: "..."
Little did he know that the professor's wife would suddenly launch a sneak attack on him at his home in mainland China.
Anyway, getting a slap on the head from the old lady isn't dangerous... at most, the young master's handsome face will end up in the dish in front of him looking like a pile of poop.
Ning Yuan couldn't help but complain to Grandma Xia, "Grandma, don't take pictures like that! His dandruff will fall into the food, it's disgusting!"
Ning Bingyu: "I don't have dandruff, I wash my hair every day..."
Grandma Xia put the vegetables she was carrying on the table and said with a look of disgust, "It's really disgusting. Sit back! Didn't you say you disliked the smell of poop?"
Ning Bingyu's forehead vein throbbed: "I told you, I don't have dandruff! I use a special imported shampoo every day..."
"Shut up! If you're complaining about Grandma's cooking, get out! Nobody invited you to eat here! Your mother didn't teach you properly, you shameless brat!"
Grandma Xia rolled her eyes at him without any politeness, wiped her hands on her apron, and went back to the kitchen.
Ning Bingyu: "..."
Was Ning Yuan raised by this old lady? Their tempers are exactly the same!
He endured it! No matter the shit-like smell, the char siu girl, or the cruel old woman!
Ning Bingyu put on his glasses and said expressionlessly, "I hired your roommate, Chu Hongyu, as my assistant secretary in mainland China."
Ning Yuan was taken aback, then looked him up and down suspiciously: "What do you want? Tired of the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall from Hong Kong and want to try Shanghai's crystal shrimp?"
She stared at him, her tone laced with warning: "You just broke up with Cha Meiling, and you're already feeling lonely? Let me tell you, don't even think about hitting on my sister Hongyu!"
Given his selfish and self-serving nature, even if he were with Sister Hongyu, he definitely wouldn't marry her!
Even if Mommy has an open-minded personality...
However, the rest of the Ning family, including her father and uncle whom she had never met, and even her grandfather, were not good people!
Ning Bingyu took a deep breath; he really wanted to slap this char siu girl back into the oven to be roasted again.
He sneered and bluntly said in Cantonese, "Is there nothing else on your mind besides men and women? What woman can't I sleep with? Only cheap men eat the grass near their own nest! I won't sleep with her, you can rest assured!"
Tony nodded and said in broken Mandarin, "Young Master is very expensive, Miss, don't worry!"
Ning Bingyu: "..."
That doesn't sound like a nice thing to say, it's not like they're working as male prostitutes!
Ning Yuan narrowed her big eyes: "You better not be that kind of cheap man!"
Ning Bingyu's forehead veins throbbed: "Shut up!"
He'll give her a heart attack sooner or later; I've never felt so ill-mannered in my life.
But no one expected that people... can't be stubborn... and easily become cheapmen.
Ning Yuan rolled her eyes at him, what's with the fierce look!
She continued munching on snails: "You have a good eye for people. Sister Hongyu's family owns a bank. She's beautiful and smart."
Ning Bingyu took a glass of cold water to cool down and said in a cold voice—
"I hope she lives up to your expectations. By the way, when does Zhaonan plan to return to Shanghai?"
Ning Yuan twitched her lips and muttered, "I've only been back for a week, and he's still in the hospital. How am I supposed to know when he'll be back in Shanghai?"
She has to go to Guangzhou in a couple of days!
A flicker of disappointment and anxiety crossed Ning Bingyu's eyes, but it was only for a moment.
He regained his composure and said calmly, "So you're not planning to go back to see Zhaonan? Your husband is still injured and in bed, while you're running all over the world."
“If I weren’t his wife, I wouldn’t have to suffer all that in the capital. I have my own things to deal with now!” Ning Yuan retorted bluntly.
She paused, then narrowed her eyes suspiciously: "Something's not right. You didn't say that in the capital. You even scolded my Ning family for not doing their own things for a man!"
Ning Bingyu calmly drank his water: "But I didn't teach you to completely disregard your husband's well-being. Aren't you afraid that after a long-distance relationship, he might have another woman?"
Ning Yuan paused in her eating of snails, and said calmly, "What's mine is mine. What can be taken away is disloyal, and I don't need it."
Ning Bingyu looked at her and suddenly chuckled softly, "Yes, she's from our Ning family."
Forget it, there's no need to rush. If the mainland customers want to change suppliers, Rong Zhaonan won't just calmly continue to stay in the hospital; he'll have to tell his younger sister first.
If there's no news, consider it good news. Take it slow. Just keep an eye on Char Siu Girl... there will be news eventually.
"Alright, alright, Xiao Ning, take your brother to wash his hands. Look at how dirty you are. Time to eat!" Grandpa Tang smiled and brought out the soup, warmly greeting Ning Yuan.
Over lunch, Ning Bingyu indirectly confirmed his suspicions.
After saying goodbye to Grandpa Tang and Grandma Xia, Ning Bingyu, Ning Yuan, and Dongni left the faculty dormitory.
After dropping Ning Yuan off at her dormitory, Ning Bingyu looked at her and instructed, "If you don't have classes, come to the Jinjiang Hotel often. Mommy wants to see you more often, you know that."
Of course, he also had to meet with the char siu girl and subtly gather information from various sources.
Business tycoons make money by exploiting information asymmetry.
"Okay." Ning Yuan hesitated for only a moment before nodding when she heard the name of Madam Ning the Second.
As Ning Bingyu left, Ning Yuan was about to turn around when she suddenly heard someone call her name from behind—
"Ning Yuan!"
Ning Yuan turned around and saw Zhang Hongmei and Zhang Zhenguo standing not far behind her.
Upon seeing her, Zhang Zhenguo suddenly frowned, rushed to her, and bowed three times: "I'm sorry!"
Ning Yuan was startled: "..."
He might as well just offer her incense! What's with the three bows?!
