Chapter 426 - She Faints and Falls onto the Ground. (1/2)
Gu Luan turns a little pale. Can Ning…really know it?
He clenches his hands. He feels his heart painful as if it is being twisted. He does everything for her. He has been liking her for so many years. He also saw her suffer a lot during the years. He doesn’t believe that Yi Yunrui can ever protect her!
Gu Luan grits his teeth. He says in a cold voice, “Mr. Su, we have an agreement between us. No matter what happens, I hope you may keep the secret between you and me.”
“Don’t worry.” Su Shen fixes his hair, “This the bottom line. I know it. However, Director Gu, next time, please do things more carefully. Or, I am afraid that I can’t but choose to protect myself first.”
Su Shen finishes his words and turns around to leave.
Looking at the waves coming one by one to clap the bank, Gu Luan freezes his eyes, at the deep of which there is a flame of fire on.
Su Shen signed the contract with him, but in the end, he gave in because he was afraid of Yi Yunrui. To Su Shen, is Gu Luan inferior to Yi Yunrui?
Is he inferior to Yi Yunrui?
Gu Luan forcefully punches on the bank. He grits his teeth. No. He can’t delay any longer!
Gu Luan takes out his phone. He dials a number. To keep calm? He can’t make it!
When Xia Ning wakes up, it is five in the morning.
She is woken up by hunger.
It is strange. Recently, she was often woken at midnight, by hunger.
She remembers that she ate a lot in the morning and took enough sugar. However, she often feels hungry at this time of the day. Hunger comes as punctually as an alarming clock rings at the scheduled time.
Xia Ning gets up. She feels very tired. She rubs her waist and her shoulders and goes to the kitchen to cook some noodles.
When she cooks the noodles, her stomach cries. When the noodles are almost done, an idea suddenly pops up in her brain. She wants to have hamburgers! She wants to have fried chicken and chips!
She is shocked by her idea!
She wants to have them very much. She has to have them as soon as possible!
Looking at the hot noodles, Xia Ning takes up the chopsticks and takes a mouthful of them. But she is not willing to have another mouthful of them at all. She consciously refuses to eat the noodles.
She wants to have hamburgers. She wants to have a steak.
Xia Ning hesitates for quite a while. In the end, she can’t resist the idea in her mind. She puts on her clothes and goes downstairs to drive her car.
KFC is 24 hours on. She can go to KFC.
She gets to the gate of KFC. When she gets off the car to open the door, she suddenly remembers the meat problem reported in Shanghai. She draws back her hand.
KFC has taken some measures, but she still feels a little worried about that.
Thinking about this, Xia Ning goes back to her car and drives to the market to buy beef and other stuff.
It is five now. She will buy the food and cook it herself. After she finishes it, she will be right on time to go to work.
She picks some pounds of Angus beef and packs it to go home. She gets home at five twenty.
It is easy to make the Angus steak. It only needs to be patted with the back of the knife and sauced with salt and black pepper. Then, it needs to be fried for a few minutes.
Xia Ning makes the sauce. Within ten minutes, the steak is ready.
It is about a pound of steak on the dish. It looks quite much. Xia Ning swallows her saliva. She takes up the knife and fork and starts to eat.
Surprisingly, she eats up all the steak.
Xia Ning strokes her stomach with satisfaction. She wants to lie down on the bed or take a bath.
After resting for a while, Xia Ning decides to have a bath. She closes her eyes when lying in the bathtub to enjoy the peace.
She lies there with her eyes closed. Half an hour passes.
It is still early. Xia Ning goes to the balcony to do some exercises.
She wonders how is Rui now. At this time, is Rui sleeping or doing anything?
She doesn’t know whether Rui is thinking of her.
She misses him very much.
When she gets to the company, it is about eight. She sees a lot of files on her desk. She unconsciously feels a little annoyed.
She doesn’t want to do anything, but going home to sleep…
However, the idea disappears very soon. If she doesn’t work, she will feel bored.
Recently, Zhou Mengyao arranges more and more work for her. She almost regards Xia Ning as her secretary, the assistant to the president of Junhao Group.
Someone knocks at the door. Xia Ning says, “Come in!”
It is An Zihao.
Xia Ning feels surprised, wondering why Supervisor An comes to her so early.
“Hello, Supervisor An.”
An Zihao nods, he sits down face to face with her, “The month is going to end. Every department is doing cleanup. You may get prepared to work overtime.
Hearing the words Work Overtime, Xia Ning feels headache. She has the desire to find a place to hide herself.
“Why? Do you feel tired?”
“Oh. No. Hum. I see.”
An Zihao mildly smiles, “Xia Ning, it is not easy to be in this post. You may drop the unnecessary and useless ideas. Focus on the things you are doing. You may come to me if there are any difficulties.”
“OK. Thank you, Supervisor An.”
“Don’t thank me.” An Zihao smiles mysteriously, “I will tell my secretary to bring the files to you. You may arrange them first and get ready to work overtime.”
