"Okay." Chen Ningsheng lowered his head and gently kissed Xu Xinchen's face, then pulled back the covers and climbed into bed next to her, and the two fell asleep together.
When Xu Xinchen woke up again, she was awakened by the alarm clock. She opened her eyes and looked at the time on the alarm clock, which was her usual time to get up. Xu Xinchen sat up and stretched.
I was exhausted all day yesterday, so it felt really good to sleep so well. It felt like I had replenished all the energy my body was lacking.
Chen Ningsheng noticed the movement of the person next to him, opened his eyes, sat up, and took Xu Xinchen's hand, carefully leading her into the restroom.
Xu Xinchen didn't understand what was wrong with Chen Ningsheng all of a sudden, so she asked him curiously, "What happened? Why are you suddenly pulling me like this?"
Chen Ningsheng shook his head and didn't say anything. Xu Xinchen looked very tired yesterday, and he was worried about her, so he wanted to keep an eye on her.
When Xu Xinchen finished washing up and sat down at the dining table, there was already toast and milk on the table. Xu Xinchen raised her eyebrows in surprise and started eating the toast.
Chen Ningsheng watched Xu Xinchen eat the toast in small, elegant bites and couldn't help but smile. He reached out and ruffled Xu Xinchen's hair, saying with a smile, "Eat slowly. If you're still hungry, I'll bake some more for you later."
Xu Xinchen shook her head: "It's okay, this is enough. You should sit down and eat with us." As she spoke, she...
He picked up another slice of toast from the plate and handed it to Chen Ningsheng.
Hearing Xu Xinchen's words, Chen Ningsheng readily sat down and asked Xu Xinchen, "Are you interested in telling me about what happened yesterday?"
Chen Ningsheng thought about it for a long time last night. Xu Xinchen has always been a meticulous person, so how could such a major error suddenly occur in the data table? Considering what Xu Xinchen had said before about being targeted by someone named Lin Lina, Chen Ningsheng felt that something was definitely wrong.
"Interested." Xu Xinchen nodded. She didn't want to cover up what Lin Lina had done. If someone had the nerve to do something like that, they should be prepared to be criticized.
Xu Xinchen took a bite of toast and began to recount the events. As Xu Xinchen spoke, Chen Ningsheng's face grew darker and darker until, after she finished, the anger in his eyes was so intense it could have burned a person to ashes.
"Why didn't you tell me about this last night?" Chen Ningsheng said to Xu Xinchen with a look of heartache.
Xu Xinchen took a bite of the toast, thought for a moment, and replied to Chen Ningsheng, "It's not a big deal. Anyway, it didn't cause me any real harm. I'll just be more careful of her in the future."
Chen Ningsheng's face was dark and he didn't say anything. After Xu Xinchen finished eating, he immediately stood up, grabbed his briefcase and suit jacket, and followed Xu Xinchen out.
As is customary, Chen Ningsheng and the driver dropped Xu Xinchen off a short distance from her company building, then let her walk up to the company on her own. Usually, they would leave after Xu Xinchen went upstairs.
But this time, after Xu Xinchen entered the company, Chen Ningsheng did not, as usual, have the driver drive.
Instead of driving back to the company, he quietly waited downstairs.
Less than a few minutes later, Lin Lina, who had been waiting in the dark corner, could no longer contain herself. Seeing Chen Ningsheng's car parked downstairs at the company, Lin Lina was filled with excitement.
As soon as Xu Xinchen entered the company, she couldn't help but slip out and jogged to a conspicuous place. Once she got there, she immediately slowed down and took small steps, swaying her hips as she walked forward.
As she approached Chen Ningsheng's car, Lin Lina cried out in surprise, pretending to twist her ankle. She slowly moved closer to the car and placed her hand on the side of the vehicle.
Chen Ningsheng sneered, observing Lin Lina's actions. A few days ago, when Xu Xinchen said that she was being targeted by Lin Lina, Chen Ningsheng had already investigated Lin Lina's background. Therefore, he naturally recognized at a glance that the person leaning against his car with her hand on her arm was Lin Lina, who was at odds with Xu Xinchen.
Lin Lina placed her hands on Chen Ningsheng's car, staring intently into the window, as if trying to see clearly whether the person sitting inside was the same person she had seen that day.
Seeing Lin Lina's anxious movements, Chen Linsheng chuckled and told the driver to roll down the window. The driver followed Chen Linsheng's instructions and rolled down the window a little. At that moment, Lin Lina's eyes met Chen Linsheng's.
"Oh dear," Lin Lina exclaimed softly, her face full of shyness. "I'm sorry, I didn't know there was someone in the car. I thought the car was unmanned."
Hearing the sounds coming from under the car, Chen Ningsheng smiled gently at Lin Lina: "It's alright. Is there anything I can help you with? Why are you leaning against this?"
Lin Lina was overjoyed and immediately said to Chen Ningsheng, "Sir, I accidentally twisted my ankle just now. Could you please take me to the hospital?"
At this moment, Lin Lina had completely forgotten that she was a person who needed to go to work. Her mind and eyes were only on Chen Ningsheng. When she saw Chen Ningsheng smiling at her, she became even more excited and completely forgot that she hadn't even asked for leave.
Chen Ningsheng chuckled, a hint of mockery creeping into his eyes. The curve of his lips grew flatter and flatter until finally, he coldly said to Lin Lina, "Oh? To the hospital? Why should I? Why should I take you to the hospital?"
Lin Lina was stunned, her shy smile instantly froze, and she looked at Chen Ningsheng with a pale face: "You... I accidentally twisted my ankle, you can take me to the hospital, it's just a favor, you shouldn't refuse, right?"
Chen Ningsheng grinned maliciously, his eyes full of mockery as he glared at Lin Lina: "By the way? What kind of 'by the way' is this? I'm not going to the hospital."
As Chen Ningsheng spoke, he waved to the driver, "Let's drive away now and let this young lady stay here by herself. It's not good for our car to be stuck here; what if someone wants to pass through here?"
The driver suppressed a laugh, watching Lin Lina's expressions occasionally turn ferocious, and chuckled softly before saying to Chen Ningsheng, "I understand, drive the car away now."
