Xia Mian ran out with hunched shoulders. After he went out of the hanging flower gate, he could no longer hold back and laughed silently while holding his stomach.
But she didn't know that Ning Shaobai was following behind her.
Because he was worried about Ning Shaobai, or perhaps more reluctant to let her go, he had originally wanted to quietly watch her go back. But when he turned around the hanging flower gate, he saw this scene in front of him.
He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was going on.
Thinking back on the past two days, he couldn't help but cover his eyes.
He said, this girl is so smart and insightful, how could she be a blockhead.
Even if he didn't fully understand her, it wouldn't be so that everything was out of his control or even went against her.
It turned out to be intentional...
Ning Shaobai was at a loss for words as he was actually being fooled by a little girl.
He followed Xia Mian out of the door, slowly leaned against the wall in the shadow, crossed his arms over his chest, looked at the girl over there who was laughing so hard that she was hammering the wall, and couldn't help laughing: How could there be such a bad girl.
Xia Mian laughed for several minutes before he slowly walked into the next door, holding his stomach and looking like he was about to faint.
Ning Shaobai rubbed his forehead and smiled helplessly: Forget it, since she is so happy, just play with her, what else can I do?
I can't fall in love anyway.
The next day, the three children stayed in the next room as usual except for eating. The equipment was enough to keep them fresh for many days.
Xia Mian was busy packing his luggage.
Xia Wenyue and Mao Zhishan, who were busy at the factory, also came back in the morning and prepared a lot of gifts for their relatives in their hometown.
Although they had already streamlined their belongings considering that Xia Mian was taking Xiao Feng with her, they hadn't been back for two years after all, and there were many relatives at home, so they had filled two large boxes without realizing it.
Xia Wenyue frowned and said, "It's still too much. You can't lift it."
Xia Mian picked it up and said, "I can carry it. Doctor Ning will take me to the train tomorrow. We've contacted someone in Ming City to pick us up. We'll drive directly back to Mingxi County. Except for when we get off the train, we'll be in the car the rest of the time."
"Getting on and off the train is when you need to be most careful. There are a lot of pickpockets on the train, and there are also beggars." Xia Wenyue thought of the fair and adorable child who was now being raised, and still felt uneasy. "Since Dr. Ning has arranged for someone to pick us up, why not just check in all the luggage? We can still take more with us."
"You must keep an eye on the child, especially when he's getting on and off the bus. If someone takes the child away and squeezes into the crowd, you won't be able to see him clearly. You won't have time to cry then."
When she said this, Xia Mian also became nervous, "Okay."
So Xia Mian took out all the gifts in the box, leaving only the things that she and Xiao Feng must use, and packed the suitcase.
Then Xia Wenyue and Mao Zhishan sorted and packed the rest of the gifts, filling up three large bags, and sent them to the train station for shipment.
After packing her luggage, Xia Mian lay down on the sofa and began to look out the door with anticipation, wondering what tricks Dr. Ning would come up with today.
Just as she was thinking about it, Xiao Feng came running over from next door and said, "Aunt, Uncle Ning said the bill you asked for is ready. I want you to come over and take a look."
So that's it.
Xia Mian suppressed a smile and said, "Tell Uncle Ning that Auntie is busy and has no time to watch it. There's no rush anyway. It won't be too late to watch it after we return from our hometown."
Xiao Feng ran over to answer again.
Ning Shaobai couldn't help laughing as he listened to Xiao Feng's retelling. He was such a money-grubber that he didn't even want to know how much money he had at the first time. How could that be right?
Xiao Feng saw Ning Shaobai's strange smile and asked, "Uncle Ning?"
Ning Shaobai stroked his ahoge hair, which was exactly the same as Xia Mian's, and said with a smile, "It's okay, go play."
Xiao Feng didn't care. Anyway, her aunt and Uncle Ning were acting weird today.
Until the afternoon, there was no more sound coming from next door. Xia Mian couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded. Had he gone too far and couldn't find a reason?
She couldn't help but think about Ning Shaobai. It seemed that there was really no good solution. After all, even the children had been used up.
Should she take the initiative to go over and take a look? Given their friendship, it would be normal for her to go over and take a look today since she's leaving tomorrow.
At noon, Ning Shaoyun and Zhou Xuewen came over specially and gave her some things.
Just wait until the evening when Xiao Feng is practicing martial arts and go there, it will be a natural thing to do.
Xia Mian had just made up her mind when Xiao Feng ran in with two sheets of printed paper and handed them to her. "Aunt, these are from Uncle Ning. Please take your time to read them."
Xia Mian couldn't help but laugh. Dr. Ning hasn't given up yet.
Xia Mian took it and opened it, and saw two tables. The densely packed numbers on them made her dizzy. Almost every daily and weekly return rate and income of every money was listed on them.
It’s hard for Dr. Ning to make it so detailed, no wonder it took so long.
Xia Mian flipped to the end, still thinking about his own property, and found that the table was full of details, and there was no total amount.
aestivation:……
Dr. Ning, you are awesome!
If she doesn't go over, then the truth will be revealed.
Xia Mian went to the next door with two pages of paper. The three children went to play somewhere unknown. Ning Shaobai was boxing in the fighting room. He was still only wearing a black vest, which was now completely soaked with sweat and stuck to his body.
Xia Mian admitted that she had no resistance to Ning Shaobai's beautiful figure, and her eyes always swept over his muscles with her own will.
Ning Shaobai quickly stopped and, noticing Xia Mian's gaze, he cautiously picked up the shirt beside him and put it on. "Are you respecting my beauty?"
Just pretend!
Xia Mian despised him in her heart, but said with a lecherous look on her face, "Yes," and reached out to tug at his shirt, "So, Doctor Ning, please don't be so formal."
Ning Shaobai rolled his eyes and dodged sideways, then pretended to be nonchalant and said, "What's the matter with coming here now?"
"You're asking even though you already know the answer, Doctor Ning!" Xia Mian was amused. She shook two pieces of paper and said, "You gave me a bill without a total. You want me to calculate all these details with a pen?"
Ning Shaobai was stunned for a moment, as if he had just realized something. "How could it be?"
He glanced at the form and then realized, "It's probably a problem with the printer. Are you anxious? If not, wait until you come back from your hometown. If you are anxious, go check it on the computer now."
Hey, I've pretended!
"No rush," Xia Mian rolled her eyes and snorted, "Doctor Ning, just tell me a rough number."
Ning Shaobai said, "This was sent to me by the bank manager and the exchange. I didn't look at it carefully. After all, it's your private property."
aestivation:……
He'd already taken care of her money, and now he was telling her it was her private property? This excuse was too perfunctory. Was he afraid she wouldn't notice that he was trying so hard to seduce her?
Humph, she can’t find it!
Xia Mian finally followed Ning Shaobai to his study. After all, she couldn't behave too abnormally. Besides, she was leaving tomorrow, and she was a little reluctant to let him go.
Ning Shaobai's study is very large. The east wing is about 50 square meters and is very spacious. There are large cabinets reaching the ceiling on three sides, which are filled with various books and medical models.
Except for the column of famous works, the rest of the summer hibernation makes me dizzy.
The computer desk was placed next to the desk. Xia Mian looked at the computers of this era curiously. They were milky white, with the same big butt as the TV, but much smaller. The screen was about the same size as the PAD in her previous life.
All in all, it doesn't look very useful.
Ning Shaobai pulled out the chair in front of the computer and motioned to Xia Mian, "Sit down."
Only after Xia Mian sat down did he lean over and press the power button on the computer.
Xia Mian looked at the computer curiously as it started to flash, and then... began to stare blankly.
She had only heard from her parents that computers used to be very slow, but she didn't expect it to be this slow. It had been almost two minutes and it still hadn't started up.
Ning Shaobai stood behind her, looking very patient and staring intently at the computer screen.
If it weren't for his hand on the back of her chair...
Xia Mian rolled his eyes, leaned back, looked up at Ning Shaobai and muttered, "Doctor Ning, the computer is so slow to start up..."
Ning Shaobai lowered her head, her shoulders leaning on his arm as if unconsciously, so that when she looked up at him it was as if she was being held in his arms.
His eyes fell from her forehead, eyes, nose to lips...
He could touch it if he just lowered his head slightly.
Xia Mian blinked and realized that this posture was not right. She was about to sit up straight when Ning Shaobai suddenly leaned over and pressed down on her.
!!!
Summer hibernation suddenly started.
Ning Shaobai seemed to be frightened and looked at her puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
As the music played, Xia Mian saw his hands on the keyboard and realized that he was leaning over to touch the keyboard.
It turned out that the computer was turned on.
Xia Mian immediately laughed and said, "Nothing, I just got a little excited when I saw the screen light up."
The reaction was quick, and a smile flashed in Ning Shaobai's eyes.
He didn't bother to get to the bottom of it. He continued to operate the keyboard with one hand, while the other hand reached out from behind Xia Mian and placed it on the mouse.
She was almost held in his arms.
aestivation:……
Hey, hey, hey, Dr. Ning, you're being too obvious! You're about to be exposed!
However, Dr. Ning's face was natural, and he used his deep voice to explain in Xia Mian's ear:
"These are the two forms. Order like this."
"This is from the bank...click here to scroll down...zoom in here...if you want to see the total amount, click here..."
The low reverberation of the subwoofer and the strong presence of the other party made Xia Mian dizzy. She couldn't hear anything, and could only feel that the restless heart in her chest was about to jump out.
Ning Shaobai lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl's pink cheeks. She didn't dare to breathe, and there was a doting smile in his eyes.
He reached out and tugged at her aho-mane hair, "Do you understand?"
"Ah?" Xia Mian tilted her head slightly in pain. Although there was a distance between them, she could still feel the other person's breath. Under the gaze of those affectionate eyes, Xia Mian felt inexplicably dry in her mouth and subconsciously licked her lips...
Ning Shaobai glanced at the tip of the little girl's tongue, his throat rolling, and he stood up and said, "If you understand, then you can read it yourself."
After saying that, he hurried out.
Xia Mian leaned back in the chair and let out a long breath, only to realize that she had been holding her breath. Damn it, who can stand Dr. Ning's flirting like this!
Thinking of this, she quickly sat up and looked at the form carefully. It was too dangerous to continue like this, and she had to leave here quickly.
Xia Mian didn't care about the details at all and scrolled directly to the last line. The moment he saw the total amount, he smiled happily. Dr. Ning is indeed an investment genius.
This is amazing! In short, this money is enough for her to buy several houses that are about to be demolished.
Xia Mian turned off the computer and went out, only to see Ning Shaobai lying on the rocking chair at the door of the main room drinking ice water. She realized belatedly that she was a little thirsty.
Seeing her walking towards the refrigerator, Ning Shaobai stopped her and said, "You've already had ice cream today, don't drink ice water."
"It's hung here for you."
Xia Mian wrinkled her nose and walked over reluctantly, and saw that there was indeed a glass of boiled water on the small table next to him.
She picked it up and looked at the ice water in Ning Shaobai's hand with envy. Ning Shaobai looked up and said, "Don't even look at it. Just drink yours obediently. Aren't you afraid of getting a stomachache?"
Xia Mian curled her lips and her eyes began to wander again.
Ning Shaobai always keeps two buttons of his shirt undone when he is at home. From Xia Mian's perspective, she can see the lines of his beautiful collarbone and pectoral muscles.
Because of the heat, there was a thin layer of sweat covering her skin, which was shiny and damn sexy.
Xia Mian licked his lips, quickly looked away, picked up the cup and took a sip of water.
As a result, he drank too much and choked.
“Cough, cough…”
Ning Shaobai quickly stood up and stroked her back, "Why are you in such a hurry..."
He suddenly fell silent here, and Xia Mian was wondering after catching his breath.
Ning Shao turned her around without even looking at her and pushed her into the house. "The towel is on the shelf next to you, go get it yourself."
Only then did Xia Mian realize that the front of his clothes was soaked, and he could vaguely see the small vest inside.
She stuck out her tongue, feeling a little embarrassed for once, and quickly wiped her clothes with a towel. She stood in front of the electric fan for a while and quickly dried her clothes.
When he went out and saw Ning Shaobai lying on the rocking chair with his eyes closed, rocking leisurely, Xia Mian smiled and said, "Doctor Ning, I'm leaving."
Ning Shaobai didn't even open his eyes. He just waved his hand casually and said, "Goodbye."
Xia Mian looked at him with inexplicable dissatisfaction. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. Ning Shaobai finally opened his eyes and asked, "Aren't we leaving?"
Xia Mian tilted her head and looked at him, "Doctor Ning, are you really not going to consider letting me be your sister? You're really amazing. I really want you to manage my money for me."
Ning Shaobai looked at her steadily, then suddenly smiled. He sat up from the recliner and leaned towards her, "Do you want to be my sister?"
Xia Mian suddenly felt that danger was approaching and there was no way to retreat, but at this moment he could only bite the bullet and nod.
Ning Shaobai stretched out his long arms, grabbed the hem of her T-shirt and pulled her closer, saying slowly, "Actually, you want to act like a spoiled child with me, have me clean up your mess, or even eat, drink, and... my... bed?"
???
Why did she feel that the bed Dr. Ning was talking about was not the same as the one she was talking about?
Then he continued, "You still want me to manage your money?"
Xia Mian hesitated for a moment. At this point, he could only nod his head.
Ning Shaobai's eyes slowly curved, the affection in them seemed to flow out and drown people, and his tone was gentle, "These people may not necessarily be my sisters..."
"And an identity that's enough to make you legitimate for the rest of your life..."
Xia Mian's heart skipped a beat, and he decided to call it a day. He chuckled and said, "I've thought about it, and these requests of mine are indeed a bit excessive. In fact, aren't you taking care of all the things you should be taking care of me now?"
Ning Shaobai said, "No, I think what you said yesterday makes sense. It's more justifiable to have a formal status. It's a bit inappropriate to let the neighbor use your bed and manage the neighbor's money."
Can you please stop mentioning the bed? Dr. Ning, what is your strategy right now?
Xia Mian was mad in her heart, but she laughed it off on the surface. "It's okay. As long as I'm thick-skinned enough, I can overcome any issues like status."
Ning Shaobai said, "You don't need to overcome it. Besides being my sister, there is a better identity that suits you, and only you are qualified for it..."
"Ah!" Xia Mian suddenly made a silent gesture and listened outside, and said anxiously, "Xiao Feng! Is that Xiao Feng's voice?"
"Did they fight with someone again?!" she said, turning around and running out.
Ning Shaobai quickly grabbed the man's wrist and pulled him back. "Don't worry, it's normal to fight with those kids at the end of the alley during the martial arts competition."
Seeing that he was determined, Xia Mian suddenly became panicked.
This, being so impatient is not Dr. Ning's style...
Is this a confession? How should she respond? How should they get along from now on?
Xia Mian's mind raced, and he didn't see the smile in Ning Shaobai's eyes. He lowered his head and spread out the little girl's fingers, which were twisted together due to nervousness, and chuckled, "The identity of being Chenchen's savior is enough!"
"Ah?" Xia Mian's panicked heartbeat stopped.
Ning Shaobai said seriously, "Although you don't ask for anything in return, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life!"
Xia Mian bit the back of his teeth and put on a fake smile, hahaha, "Yeah, how could I forget this! This identity allows me to do whatever I want!"
"Then I'll have to ask Dr. Ning to take good care of me from now on!"
Ning Shaobai looked at Xia Mian's angry back, fell back into the rocking chair, and laughed silently.
